Very important! Please read this! in my version of events Teddy is now 13 and Phoebe is only 4 so there's a different age gap between them then there was in the original book. I do not own fifty shades of grey trilogy.
Sitting in my office of greys publishing looking down at a picture of my four year old daughter and thirteen year old son I felt blessed. They were growing up well and they couldn't ask for more with a father like Christian always making sure they got what they needed. Could my life get any better I didn't think so. Never would have I thought that at the age of thirty five would I be happily married with two beautiful children not to mention talking about having a third.
My new assistant Hayley pulled me out of my train of thought by knocking softly on my door and entering.
"Miss Grey it's the end of the day and you have to go pick up Teddy from school"
Ah thank god someone reminded me that wouldn't have gone down to well with Mr Grey if I were to forget about his son.
"Thanks Hayley I'm leaving now send out all my draft emails please"
"No problem"
I knew Taylor could pick Teddy up no problem but still that was something I wanted to do, that's something a mother should do and that was one of the conditions for me staying on to work at grey's publishing I still got to do my job as a mother aswel.
As I pulled up at the school my phone vibrated against my leg in my pocket seeing who it was I was more than happy to accept the call .
"Hello Mr grey" I breathed a sigh of relief waiting to hear his voice
"Ana" he sighed drinking in my voice before he started to rant "Are you picking Teddy up? I have Phoebe here at the office with me if you could collect her here day-care called and told me she was unwell and I know you done like Gail looking after the kids except in the evening time so she's here with me"
"Yeah Teddys just climbing into the jeep now I'll be there in ten minutes is she all right?" I knew she was probley perfect but still I was anxious that there could be something wrong.
"Yeah she's fine just a little chesty she's having great fun sorting through all my files and eating chocolate" he giggled on that last bit and I giggled too realising if she's eating chocolate she's more than likely not that sick at all.
I put the phone down and turned in the car to talk to Teddy.
"So munchkin how are you?"
"I'm fine mom do you have to pick up Phoebe? We'll be late for soccer? That's ten minutes out of our route?"
"So? If we're ten minutes late we're ten minutes late" Sometimes he can be so like his father These Greys can be so difficult.
We pulled up outside Christian's office and there he was waiting with Phoebe in his arms after buckling her in and getting the third degree off Teddy he kissed my goodbye.
"I love you Ana" he smiled.
"I lov…." I was cut off.
"MOM! For god sake we're ten minutes late already you can do your long goodbyes later." he has a temper like his father.
"Hey Theodore relax all right soccer will be there later aswel" Christian started to take on more of an assertive tone with Teddy last month when his hormones kicked in and I couldn't be more grateful. It wasn't Teddys fault that he was acting out more, he's growing into puberty.
"Shtop shouting at mommbeey" Phoebe screeched at Teddy and threw her dolly.
"Okay now that's enough. Teddy relax and Phoebe its not nice to throw things say sorry to Teddy… As you can see we have to go" I gave him a quick smile and then headed to soccer practice with Teddy and Phoebe in tow.
Me and Phoebe parked up as we waited for Teddy's practice to be over she told me all about her day the best she could but all I really got was that she had lots of chocolate with Daddy. I have to hold up my finger to get her to pause as my phone rings and Taylors name flashes up on the screen.
"Hello Taylor" I say with a smile in my voice as I watch Teddy get the ball and score.
"Yay Teddy Sco" Phoebe shouts in the back ground
"Ssh Ssh Mommies on the phone baby… sorry Taylor what's up?"
"Mrs Grey…" Theres a long pause "you should meet us at the hospital Mr Grey has had a fall"
My whole world crashes down around me. I don't like the tone of Taylor's voice.
"Is it serious? Let me talk to him?" I am panicking on the inside but for Phoebe's sake I relax my voice and for Teddy's sake I smile and wave.
"You can't Mrs Grey he's not awake… Just come to hospital where Grace works… I'll explain everything then, please Mrs Grey?" he sounds like he's almost begging.
"Okay" I try not to let my voice crack.
"Mrs Grey drive carefully" he speaks with a whisper and then hangs up the phone.
I take three deep breathes, wipe the tears from my eyes and then turn to phoebe.
"Mommy will be back in just one minute. Okay one little minute"
I jump out of the jeep Christian insisted on me driving for safety and gesture for Teddy to come over to me. He does with easy strides and I realise that my little boy is turning into a little man.
"Whats up? Why are you crying?" He looks just like Christian when he's concerned.
"Ted we have to go Dads had an accident at work and we need to go to the hospital" I explain as much as I know and then start tugging him towards the jeep.
"What happened? Is he okay? Mom! Stop pulling and tell me!" Teddy Stands and demands answers. Well I bloody well don't have any answers.
"Look Teddy Phoebes in the jeep we cant talk about it infront of her and we cant leave her on her own so get in the jeep and we'll talk about it at the hospital ok?"
Finally he see's reason and gets into the jeep beside his sister.
"Whots wong?" she asked a ripple in her voice like she's going to cry.
"Nothings wrong Phoebe come on and tell me the name of your doll" Teddy soothes as I pull out of the soccer park.
In that very moment I thank god for Theodore Grey.
