Gray's Kids

He used a helicopter and flew it to the Empire's Academy which was founded by the Mondragon Empire or known as Dragon Empire. They had a long history of a lot of things connected to the Rossie Empire. They are backing up the Rossie Empire which is this family. His mother was a Phoenix, a daughter of the Chief of a Tribe and his father was the Prince, Karmina's father's brother. Anyway, it seems to be not her first time hopping in a helicopter and his co-pilots are Victor and Kal.

"The view is full of green, darling." He told her. "Sorry that we can't open the window."

"It's fine." She listens to Kal's pointed stuff while he's sitting with her.

"Cow," Kal told her. "Black cow." He told her.

"How big is it?"

"There's papa cow, mama cow, baby cows. Like 3 baby cows."

Gray and Victor looked at each other, grinning as they listened to Kal describing everything that he saw. He's good at entertaining that's why they brought him with them. It was twenty minutes of flying from the Rossie Estate to the Empire Academy. If they drive by land it will take three hours.

"Do you usually fly from the Rossie Empire to the Empire Academy?"

"Nope. There are times that we have drivers with them so they can come home in time. If there are emergencies, we have to fly to them right away." Victor, Kal's father answered.

"Hmm," She hummed.

"Are you afraid?" Kal asked. "Hold my hand."

Eris was being adored by everyone as she also adored everyone. She moved her left hand closer to Kal as the boy held her hand. The boy started singing a song as Eris listened to him and smiled.

Gray could see that she was having fun. Her smile was different every time she was close to the kids. He could marry her right away but things are complicated as he can't force her to marry him. He promised that they will have a hundred dates and would live together to know more about each other. He's excited for the upcoming days. They finally viewed the Empire Academy which had big buildings, a wide soccer lawn, a wide tennis lawn, and a lot more. The dorms are just behind the buildings and a lot of people are walking or bike to get to the specific building.

They landed on the soccer lawn as the boys and Alexa rushed.

"Sista!!!" Kal exclaimed excitedly. Victor hopped down as Gray turned off the helicopter to help the kids with their stuff.

"Kal!" Alexa, Victor's adopted daughter hugged and kissed Kal. She noticed Eris as she smiled. "Hello."

"Hi," Eris smiled.

The boys were noisy as they hopped in.

"I'm Alexa," She extended her hand. Kal was the one who led Eris's hand to shake Alexa's hand.

"I'm Eris, it's a pleasure to meet you, Alexa."

Alexa was silent for a while as she noticed that she was blind but with a unique pair of eyes.

"Ditto."

"Guys, this is beautiful Eris. Your future mom."

The boys gaped as they immediately had fallen in love with Eris.

"Hi, Mom."

Eris froze as Gray chuckled. They all hopped in, put their headset on and they waved at their friends. There's Jaime, fifteen years old. Yves, sixteen years old. Alexa, nine years old, and Cole, eight years old.

"Is Jade here?" Jaime asked excitedly.

"Ah, sorry boys. Jade is currently in her ballet competition." Victor said as they prepared for taking off.

Gray has control of everything and they all chatted about what happened. He listened to the boys and congratulated them. Suddenly, Jaime mentioned that Yves had a girlfriend and they all shut up.

"Guys, I am driving, and do not surprise me with some news."

"Geez, I am not getting married or something!" Yves said.

"Whatever, man. You focus on your study and sports. Do not impregnate someone."

The boys were silent as Alexa covered her mouth to avoid laughing. For another twenty minutes, they arrived at the Rossie Estate. It was an epic landing as the maids and butlers were waiting for them. Gray turned off the helicopter and then, he turned it over to the pilot. He then helped Eris out carefully. The babies were already screaming.

"Coco!" Quinn ran to Cole and quickly hugged him.

"Coco!" Dione did the same and hugged her brother.

Eris could hear the children's excitement as she held on to Gray. She smiled as they strode inside the house.

"So, Cole is an adopted child of MJ and Harvey. He's the big brother for the babies. Quinn has this big attachment to him. They speak of money."

She giggled as she intertwined her hand with him.

"Your family sounds awesome, loud, and beautiful." She said softly.

"You will be part of this family."

Eris smiled at him but Gray knew that it was one of her casual smiles. It faded immediately. He didn't know why but Eris looked sad and there was something else bothering her.

"I am happy to be part of it." She whispered. "But are you sure that you want me?"

"I have never been sure in my entire life." He whispered.

They all went directly to their rooms as Gray took her to the great room. Benny quickly rushed to her and climbed on her lap. Eris quickly hugged the boy as she kissed the boy's top head. Eris was calm around Benny. She could smell the earth on him. She doesn't know why but the boy was so special. She closed her eyes as she snuggled more with Benny.

Suddenly, clips of memories were there. A lady caught up the emerald gem, known as the earth gem while she was hanging on the rock. Then, there's another woman explaining it. She quickly opened her eyes to cut it off. She doesn't want to know where it is located. The boy was a gift from the Earth. She doesn't want to put them in danger.

"Eris, is there something wrong?" Johanna asked. Eris now realized that the woman she saw was her. She had such a beautiful face from her vision.

"Nothing."

"Does he smell bad?" Johanna bent down and sniffed Benny. "He's been out all day hunting for some squirrels that don't exist here."

Eris giggled.

"Squirrels?" Eris patted Benny.

"Bown, squekels." Benny said. "Peanuts. Like peanuts."

"Yes, they love peanuts."

Johanna patted her baby boy.

"Be a good boy, okay?"

"Yes, mama. Kissy~kissy."

Eris listened as Johanna gave Benny a lot of kisses on the face. Shortly, Kaiden came up and reached Eris's hand.

"Me too." Kaiden was pulling Benny but the boy irritatedly complained.

"You can sit beside me." Eris patted the space beside her as Kaiden climbed up and sat beside her. He hugged her while simply pushing Benny away.

"Ay!" Benny frowned at him.

"Aiden! Baddie!" Dione, Kaiden's two years and nine months old sister shook her forefinger at him as Eris bit her lower lip to avoid laughing.

Shortly, Gray came with food. He first picked Kaiden and put him far away from Eris. Then, he picked Benny and put him just beside her mother. Then, he sat beside Eris and made sure that there was no space where the boys could sit.

"We got fresh fruits here." Gray took the finger pick and carefully brought the watermelon slice to her mouth. She thanked him as she accidentally placed her hand over his thigh to search for his other hand. "Darling, what are you searching for?" He teased her.

"Where's your other hand?" She asked. He chuckled as he used his right hand to hold her hand.

"Jaime, Yves!" he called. The boys approached them. "Okay, so this is Eris. I am dating her and she's living with us."

"Cool!" Yves exclaimed.

"When will the wedding be?" Jaime asked.

Eris squeezed Gray's hand. She was a little nervous.

"Not yet," Gray said.

"But did you guys just meet?" Alexa asked. She's the most mature among the boys.

"Yes," Gray said.

"Okay," Alexa turned back. Johanna was there to observe everything.

"Let's go to the bar later." Violet, Victor's wife suggested. "I know it's noisy but we could have fun. I will reserve a room for us."

Gray looked at Eris who didn't respond to the suggestion.

"Eris? You should come." Violet said as Eris turned her head to where she heard Violet's voice.

"Okay."

Gray kissed her top head as he whispered. He could feel that she was a little uncomfortable because of the sudden crowd but he was sure that she will get close to them. The kids already love her and Johanna was the one who introduced her to him. He enjoyed eating fruits with her while they were waiting for dinner. She got used to it somehow as she played with them at a small table and chairs like they are in the meeting.

"I give okane," Quinn said and put something over the table.

"Okane?" Eris bent down to ask Kaiden.

"Money," Kaiden whispered.

"Like, real money?" She asked.

"Kin-kin have a lot of money." He told her.

Eris blinked as she listened to the kids.

"Quinn put your money back," Cole said. "We are not betting money."

"We buy a gift," Quinn said as Dione agreed.

"I give money too."

"Gift for what?" Eris asked as they all looked at her.

"Pretty clothes," Kal said. "It's a surprise."

Eris was still curious but still, she listened to them attentively as she belonged to the group.
