CHAPTER TWO : THE ANA STEELE

"Ana, how do you feel about a drink being named after you?" The reporter asked and Ana smiled before she answered. Of course she was happy.

"Well, I feel honoured that I have my own signature drink and I am excited about it. But it might be funny to order an Ana Steele for myself." Ana laughed as she said this.

As she was told, the only difference from other bars in New York was that this one did not have those usual names for drinks and meals. People could order Gwyneth Paltrow (a healthy salad) or Ana Steele (a Cosmopolitan). Ana was ecstatic when she found out the owners wanted to name a drink after her.

"Ana, from what I've been told, the drink was named after you because in your column you often write how you watch people while drinking your Cosmopolitan and since your column is popular along with your blog, this drink was dedicated to you." the reporter said, and Ana kept smiling as she thought how popular she actually must be.

And now, it was the opening night of the restaurant where she of course was expected and was even interviewed.

"Christian, you should take a photo with the Cosmopolitan girl!" Ana heard a woman yell and soon someone put a hand on her shoulder.

"Hi, my name is Alice. You must be Ana Steele. I am part of Mr. Grey's PR Team. He is the owner of this, could you please pose for a few pictures with him?

"Of course." Ana said with a smile and agreed.

"Great, please come with me." Alice said.

"I'm sorry, I have to go." Ana said to the reporter and followed the woman to the red carpet.

She was excited to pose for the pictures with the owner. She did not have time to look for some pictures of him, but she had heard the owner was a billionaire from Seattle, who was extremely handsome and was every woman's dream man. Of course, a man from Seattle was not someone for her and Ana thought she had to be out of his league, but a little flirting wouldn't hurt.

But she quickly changed her mind when she saw the owner . It was the guy who made her spill her hot tea on her favourite coat. The man she had met in the morning.

"Christian, you need a photo with Ana Steele!"

As their eyes met, Ana no longer felt happy and confident. Instead, she felt the exact opposite.

"Ana dear, go and pose with him for a few photos!" Alice said.

Ana tried to smile as she walked to the red carpet and smiled at the cameras. She tried her best to look happy and confident.

"Christian, why so shy? A pretty girl, pull her to you! Your brother would have already asked her out!"

Ana looked up at Christian and was unable to read his thoughts. She saw him smiling at the camera. But then, his hand had made his way on her waist.

Well, if he hadn't been the idiot that spilled tea on her favorite red coat, she would probably think of what other things that hand could do.

But now, she just wanted this little photo op to be over.

"Okay, thank you, Ana. You should try some Bradley Cooper, I've heard it's a good cocktail." Alice told her.

Ana smiled at her and quickly made her way to the ladies room.

"Oh, God." Ana said as she looked in the mirror. At least she still looked good. Her make up was still in place and her dress looked great on her, hugging her body perfectly. She laughed at the thought of Christian spilling something on her Gucci dress. She wouldn't know how she'd react if he spilled something on her.

Ana debated whether she should go back. In the end, she decided to head back and keep her head high, and put her best smile on. No matter how awkward it was that this man owned the restaurant.

Ana took her purse and opened the door. She was surprised when she saw Christian Grey waiting for her. He was leaning against the wall in front of the door.

"Ana Steele for Ana Steele." Christian said and offered her the glass.

It was a shock.

Ana didn't know what to say or what to do. He really was handsome. And even though Ana hated him for the tea spill on her favourite coat, Ana thought that he was actually charming.

And as she remembered from earlier, she thought about flirting with the owner.

"If you promise not to spill it on me." Ana teased as she got to him and took the glass.

"I am really sorry for what happened this morning. I still would like to pay for the dry cleaning." Christian told her sincerely.

"You already paid." And it turns out he could afford giving huge amounts of money to strangers. "And you got me a new drink." Ana added.

"Well, then, can I hope you are no longer angry at me?" Christian asked her with a smirk on his face.

"Me?" Ana laughed. "Well, I kinda am. That was my favourite coat. Now, I am separated from it for a few days." She said frowning at the thought.

"I really am sorry. You looked really good in it." Christian said seductively. Christian looked at Ana and saw that her body was much more exposed with the dress she was wearing, she looked even better he thought to himself.

Even though he did not like the incident this morning, he somehow had been thinking about her. He tried to remember her face, but all he remembered was her temper. The way she had given the money to the homeless guy. There was something about her that attracted him.

And there she was now. Standing in front of him, smiling as she sipped her drink. Her drink in all meanings of the word.

"Christian, we need you here!"

And then there was Alice again, telling him to pose for a few pictures.

Why did he even sign into this? Okay, Elena needed money and she wouldn't just accept it, so she decided to give a restaurant to Christian in exchange. And Christian just hired a team to make the restaurant work and be something.

"They need you, Christian." Ana repeated Alice's words and shared her last smile that night with Christian.

Because as soon as Christian left, she left the event herself. She spent the rest of the night with Kate and Jose at their favourite 24 hour diner.

"And that's it." Ana finished her story with Christian. "He went to do his things and I went to meet up with you two and you guys already know what happens next." Ana told her friends, Kate and Jose.

"You should have given him your number!" Kate exclaimed. "You should have written it on a napkin with your lipstick or…"

"Kate, no. I am not that type of girl. First, why would a man like him date some crazy woman looking for relationships and sharing them with the world? And second..." Ana stated interrupting Kate and continued, "if he wanted, he could have asked me out or said anything about it. He didn't even ask me my number."

"Ana, Ana, Ana. Men don't mention going out in the first five minutes of being with you. First, he went to see you at the ladies' room door. He was flirting with you. The drink. The talking. If you think he could have any other woman, he would have went to that woman and not waste his time with someone he did not find attractive. Instead, he came to you." Jose said, looking at Ana, and checked his watch. "It is one thirty in the morning, the party still should be in its heat, go there, make him see you, make him finish the conversation with you. And in the end, he will ask you out."

"Look, Jose, there are two reasons why I won't go back. First, I want to eat my burger while it is still hot. And second, I don't even want to go out with him." she said not convincing her two best friends.

"Liar." Kate said.
