A/N: New chapter!

This story has some distressing parts. It begins when Christian is explaining what happened at his apartment. If you don't want to read please skip that part, you won't miss anything too important to the overall story. I'm sorry if anyone is upset by reading.

Shout out to Charmaine for helping me out with this story and giving me some ideas. I really appreciated it!

I hope you enjoy...

We are the elevator going up to Christian's apartment, we are all hands and tongues while I'm pressed up against the wall. I can feel Christians rock hard erection against my belly as I slowly grind on him. The elevator digs letting us know we are here; we breakaway and Christian leads us inside, we are about to exit when a large man comes around the corner directing us back inside.

"Sir there's a situation. I have been ordered to make sure you stay here while security check the apartment" Who is this man? What's going on? I'm scared.

"What's happened? Where's Taylor?" Christian asks, his whole persona has changed, he looks like he is ready for action. He really looks like a CEO.

"Taylor came up the service elevator a few minutes ago and he's now in the apartment. She got in again Sir, she snuck past the security and went up the service stairs. She made a show in front of Gail, she tried to kill herself." Oh my gosh I hope this woman is okay. What is going on? Who are they talking about.

"How the fuck did this happen again Sawyer! I'm going to fire every last fucker who missed this" he is fuming I can feel it radiating off him and he is holding my hand with a death grip but instead I focus on what Sawyer is saying.

"I'm not sure Sir, I wasn't here tonight as you know it was my night off so Ryan was in charge who I still need to talk too. I got a text about 20 minutes ago telling me the situation. Also, Sir, she has a gun" I gasp and try to step back further into the elevator but I hit the back of the wall. Oh my god why does she have a gun. Was she going to try and kill someone! No! What if she tried to kill Christian. No, I want to leave, I want to get Christian away from this woman. I hear mumbling but I can't focus on it, it like it's in the distance. I'm panicking and I can't stop it. The next thing I realise is Christian has his lips on mine bringing me back the present. I kiss him back slowly and I calm down instantly. A few slower little kisses on my lips he pulls back a little bit so he can look in my eyes.

"It's okay Ana, you're not going to get hurt I will project you. I need you to calm you down before you passed out. You worried me right now" My breathing returns back to normal

"I'm more worried about you, she has a gun, what if she tried to shoot you." I take a breath to calm my beating heart before I lose control again. "I couldn't lose you after we have just found each other"

I stand up on my tip toes and wrap my arms around his neck and burry my face in the crook. I hold him tightly as he wraps his arms around my waist and holds me just as tight. He lets go of me and tell me to wait here. He goes into the apartment while I wait. My mind is running wild I really hope he is okay. I'm about to ask Sawyer if it's safe yet when I hear gun shot. My world drops. Christian. I run to the apartment as fast as I can and doge Sawyer who is chasing after me. I open the doors and gasp at the sight I see. Blood. There's blood on the floor where I am stood and I see little droplets on the floor. I look up to see a woman hysterically crying with her hand covering her mouth. Taylor is kneeling down to pick up a knife off the floor. I next see Christian with hands on this girl face which slowly breaks my heart slight. I scan over Christian who is okay and not hurt. I breath a sign of relief. My heart hurts as I look at the pair, he is so close to her, I can see the connection between them. He looks at me with a cold look which makes it even worse.

"Sawyer, get Miss Steel out of here now" he says through his teeth.

"Yes Sir" Sawyer comes to me

"Christian please" Why does he want me to leave? This situation is so confusing.

"Sawyer now!"

Sawyer guides me out as a lone tear falls to my check. I turn around as I walk out and see Christian gazing at the women. It's like it's in slow motion. I walk out feeling numb I can't focus on anything, I'm on auto piolet. We make it down to the lobby then Sawyer leads me outside to the SUV and I climb in. I don't know where I am going but I don't care. I curl up on the back seat and stare into space. We had such a good night, I fell for him even more then this happened. Why did he act that way to her? How did he know her? Does he have feelings for her? He acted like he had a deeper connection with her. I need to speak to Christian. What if he doesn't want to talk to me? Why else would he kick me out if he didn't want to see me? I keep thinking of unanswered questions when Sawyer alerts me that we have arrived. I look up and see we are at my apartment. I get out and head upstairs. I get inside still with a numb look on my face, I lock the door and go to my room. The second I flop on the bed the dam starts. I let my emotions runs free and I cry...

CPOV

I burst through the apartment to see Leila talking to Gail while she has a knife in one hand and a gun in the other. I can see that Leila had cut herself and was trying to bleed to death, it was all over the floor. I approach them and she turns around with a gasp.

"Leila put the gun and the knife down" I approach her like she is a wild dear about to run any second.

"I can't" she shakes her head

"Leila yes you can, pass the gun over to me now" I use my dominant voice. She is taken back but after a few seconds of me staring her down she passes is over. As she is passing it over she knocks the trigger and a pistol is fired but thank fuck is only hit the vase away from us all.

I pass the gun over the Taylor who is still staring her down and has his hand on his gun in case she doesn't anything. She drops the knife and Taylor gets that too. We are stood in front of each other with her eyes looking down to the floor.

"Leila why are you doing this?" She is about to reply when the foyer door suddenly opens and Ana comes running in. She stops in her track's as she looks over the current situation. Fucking Sawyer! She needs to get out of here now before Leila hurts her. I'm not having Ana anywhere near her. She looks to me but I keep my cold stare so I don't show my emotions to Leila. She doesn't deserve to see me that way, only Ana does. Ana needs to leave now. I ask Sawyer to take her away and the look Ana gives me breaks my heart. I'm trying hard to stay as passive as ever so nobody can ready my real emotions.

After Ana leaves I call Flynn for Leila so she can get help. They take her to the hospital to treat her cuts then they will take her to a psychiatric facility outside of Seattle. I speak to Gail about what happened and I'm surprised Gail hasn't quit yet, it sounded traumatic for her. I still can't believe she got in after last time. She broke in a few weeks ago and came into my room while I was sleeping. I don't have time to talk to my team because I need to go see my girl. I rapidly change shirts to get the blood off me then head downstairs.

I hop in my R8 and drive to Ana's apartment. I got upstairs and knock on her door. She doesn't answer for a while so I bang again more forcefully. I start to worry when she doesn't answer. I am about to call her when I hear the faint sound of movement. She answers the door and all I want to do is gather in my harms and project her from the world. She looks so sweet, cute, beautiful and innocent. I begin to notice that he eyes are all read and they are puffy. She's been crying. Oh baby no.

"W-what are you doing here" she asks shyly not letting me in.

"I came to see you. I'm sorry I asked you to leave earlier. Can I come in and explain?" She hesitates.

"You don't have to explain anything Christian, it's clear you two had a connection. You should go back to her" Fuck that! That's a load of shit!

"Ana, I swear to you there is no connection between me and Leila. She's nobody to me. I don't care about her the same way I care about you. Please let me in so I can explain" She thinks "Please"

She steps back to let me inside and I breath a sign of relief. We sit down on the couch; Ana is sat in my lap with her legs stretched out and her back against the arm of the sofa.

"Ana there is a lot you don't know about me. I have a fucked up past and I have no heart or soul. I'm not ready to tell you yet, I don't want you to leave me. I don't want you to ever leave but I know if I tell you my past you may think of me different. I need to savour you more before I can tell you" I pull her tighter against me and burry my nose into her hair to taking in her scent. "Just remember Ana that I would never ever hurt you, do you understand. You have impacted my life so much in a short amount of time and you are so special to me. I would never hurt you. I want to project you and keep you safe. I care about you so much Ana" We look into each other's eyes. All I can see is how much she cares for me too. We are speaking without words but I can tell exactly how she feels and I am doing the same for her. She leans forwards and grabs my face between her tiny hands and kisses my lips softly, conveying her emotions. I kiss her back with the same intensity. It's perfect. Her lips are always so soft I want to kiss them forever. I pull away to look at her and see she looks exhausted. I am too.

I stand up with her in my arms and walk us to her bedroom after she directs me. I lay her gently down on the bed. I begin to strip her of her clothing. Once she is down to just her underwear I take my shirt off and put it on her. Stunning. She reaches under the shirt and unclasps her bra and takes it off. She pulls it out of the sleeve and throws it on the floor. I look away so I can calm myself before I get even harder. Fuck that was hot though. I unbutton my jeans and slide them down so I'm just in my boxers. Ana is looking me up and down and I just smirk at her. All in good time baby don't you worry. She crawls up the bed and pulls the covers back and lays down and pats the empty side. I climb in next to her. I open my arms to her and she scurries over the bed into my arms and lays her cheek on my chest. She snuggles down and gets comfy as I draw the duvet up to our chins. I relax into the bed and hold her against me as I sign in content.

"Good night Christian"

"Good night Ana"

APOV

I wake up to a light touch down my cheek. I moan and sign in content as I burry myself further into my pillow. I hear a chuckle and I smile. I open one of my eyes to see Christian laying on his side with his head propped by his arm looking down at me. His eyes still look tired and puffy from sleep and his hair is all over the place, he looks so good. He looks down to me with a smile and I can't help but smile back. He has the other arms slung over my waist resting on my ass.

"Mr Grey it is too early for you to be cute. Weekends are for sleeping in" I groan as I sink further.

"I have plans for us baby. Come on we need to get going before me miss it." I turn over to check the time.

"Christian you can't be serious it 5:45 in the morning. What can we possibly be doing" I put my head under the duvet. I struggle a lot to get out of bed especially on a weekend. The bed rises as he gets off and the next second the covers are being ripped off of me and are now on the floor. I open my eyes to see Christian standing at the foot of the bed with a hand full of the duvet as I lay in a sea of white sheets in the morning cold.

"Christian!"

"Come on, your wasting time. You can sleep in the car" He grabs one of my ankles and pulls me down the bed to him and I squeal. He grabs my hips and picks me up from the bed and places me on the floor.

"Come on sleepy head" He turns me around and pushes my but in the direction of my closet. I chuckle but begin to get ready. He told me to dress casually so I am wearing a pair of jeans and a loose fitting black t-shirt. I pair it with my white converse and my green bomber jacket. Christian tells me we can have breakfast at our surprise so I grab my bag and we head out to his R8. He opens my door and I get in. We set off and he lets me know it's an hour drive.

A soft piano balled is playing in the background and I try hard to stay awake so I can talk to Christian and keep him alert but sleep takes over me.

.

I open my eyes to see we are driving through the woods, it's still a little dark but it looks beautiful but also very creepy like where driving to a remote place and a killer is going to jump out.

"Good morning for the second time"

"I'm sorry I fell asleep" I grab his hand that was resting on the curve of my thigh and intertwine them.

"It's okay you're going to need a lot of energy for the day have planned" He winks at me and I blush. We continue to drive through the woods until he pulls over at a parking spot. He opens the trunk and gets a picnic bag out. He opens my door and we walk hand in hand on a dirty path through the woods. We have been walking for a few minutes and I am about to ask where we are going but we push through the bushes and the view takes my breath away.

We arrive at a high viewing point looking over Seattle and part of Oregon. It's absolutely beautiful with the sun slowly coming up. There is a mix of orange red and pink in the sky. Seattle is slowly starting to wake up but it feels like we are the only two people in the world with the nature and peace and quiet. It's perfect.

"So, was it worth getting out of bed?" he laughs at me as he places his chin on top of my head as he stands behind me with his arms wrapped around the top of my shoulders and chest.

"It's absolutely perfect. Thank you for bringing me here" I sign and lean back into him.

"You're perfect and your welcome" he kisses my head

"Let's take a picture, I want to see this view and remember this moment forever"

We turn around so our backs are facing the view, I grab my phone and I take a picture of the two of us and the incredible view behind us.

*Click*

I love it!

We sit down on the bench and Christian gets the food out of the picnic bag.

"How the hell did you get food for us. You never left" I ask confused

"Taylor. He came this morning and put it in the car for me with the spare key. I was up last night planning today while you were sleeping"

It's crazy the power he has. I am definitely not complaining these pancakes are incredible. We eat breakfast and watch the sunrise. It's perfect. I enjoy being with him so much, we flow so easily, I don't feel like I need to put effort into a conversation it just flows naturally; it's like a second nature. I feel I can fully be myself around him which is the most incredible feeling. I don't know what I would do if he wasn't in my life. That reminds me I still need to find out what happened yesterday.

"Christian, are you going to tell me what happened last night?" He stops mid chew and looks to me. He sighs and finishes his food.

"Yes, I will tell you. It's such a messy situation and it's going to be confusing for you because I don't want to tell my whole backstory yet but just stay with me okay." I grab his hand to calm him… and myself.

"Okay so her name is Leila, we have a past… agreement. Arrangement. I don't really know what to call it but at the time it definitely wasn't a relationship-"

"Did you have sex with her" I cut him off

He looks ashamed "Yes but it wasn't out of love or liking each other. I know this is confusing and I'm not sharing but I promise Ana that I will tell you everything but not right now. I don't want to ruin our day. Please" He looks like he is about to beg me, I hate to see that look on his face. I nod my head and smile for him to continue.

"Thank you. So, somehow, she got in the apartment last night and made a show in front of Gail who is my house keeper. My security thinks she was disguised and come up through the service elevator. So, she saw Gail and asked for me but Gail obviously told her I wasn't there. Gail said she seemed depressed and not herself. She was broken and hurt… She had a knife and she cut herself, that's why there was blood on the floor. Thankfully Gail managed to stop her before she hurt herself too badly. Gail was talking to her and trying to calm her down when Taylor arrived at the apartment, he drew his gun out in case she tried anything. Then she pulled a gun out herself. That's when I went in. She has something deeply wrong Ana, she needs mental help. I felt horrible for her, it's my fault she is in that state. I had to comfort her and get her help. I got the knife and the gun away from her and as she passed it she knocked the trigger and it smashed the vase. That's why you heard the gun shot. When you came in... fuck Ana my heart stopped. I was so annoyed. At you, at Sawyer, Leila…. Myself mainly. I need to get you away from the whole situation. I didn't want her to hurt you. That's why I sent you away and I looked so cold is because I didn't want her to see my emotions, she didn't deserve to see how I truly felt. Only you deserve to know the real me and what I feel. When you turned away and looked upset my heart broke, I hated the thought of you over thinking what went on. I'm so sorry Ana that you thought there was something going on between me and Leila. Its only ever been you Ana, I've only ever wanted to have more with you. I.. I.. I really care about you Ana, I don't know what I would have done if she had hurt you" he must have run his hands through his hair fifty times while telling me that story.

I stand up and walk around the bench to where he is sitting and move his arms so I can sit on his lap. I wrap my arms around his neck and his arms going around my waist. I kiss him soundly on the lips showing how much he means to me and I feel the same as him.

"I feel the same way about you Christian, we have become so close in such a short amount of time. You're a part of my life and I couldn't picture you not being there."

We both smile brightly at each other's words and our lips brush lightly against each other but quickly deepens. He pushes his tongue against my lips seeking entrance which I gladly allow. I slip mine in his mouth and he tastes of our breakfast which taste even better on him. I pull back to say one more thing which he needs to here.

"Because you mean so much to me I won't allow you to blame yourself for the state Leila was in-" He starts to shake his head but I place my hands on the side of his face "No Christian I am telling you the truth. You can't blame yourself for what goes on inside someone else's head. You're the most incredible man and you care about the state she is and that she is okay so I couldn't be your fault. I don't know what happened between you two but when you do tell me I will be here for you"

"Promise me you won't run"

"I promise"

After another round of passionate kissing Christian packs everything up and leads us to the car for the rest of our day together.

CPOV

After telling Ana the story and hearing that she will stand by me; it relieves me a lot. I'm nervous to tell Ana about my BDSM lifestyle I was in before. I'm worried about her reaction and if her view of me will change. I haven't been a part of the lifestyle for 4 months and they have definitely been hard. My family know everything about me, everything that happened with Elena, the 'relationships' I had, they don't know explicit details but they know why I was so uptight and so cold all these years. Ever since I have told them my life has changed for the better, I have become a lot more pleasant to be around, I am no longer uptight and angry. I have the best relationship I have ever had with my family, I no longer dread going to family dinners because of the huge secret hanging over my shoulders. They have touched me sometimes but I know where they are going to touch me and they have my permission, it's still hard but its slowly getting easier. With Ana, I want her to touch me, I crave her touch. The first time our hands touched the night we met, my whole body lit up and I finally came alive for the first time. We I gave her a piggy back and she was on my back with her arms dangling down my chest, it didn't burn I barely noticed her hands were in the no-go area. I was really shocked but I couldn't wait for her to keep touching me. I know I will tell her soon I just want to get through today and enjoy this with her before she could possibly leave me.

We are driving down the high way going to Escala. Its only 10am so there isn't much to do right now and our other plans will start later. I have my hands resting on Ana's thigh and she has her hand on mine, which is distracting but I don't want it leave. I can tell she is slightly nervous after what happened last night so I try to comfort her.

"Ana are you okay? Are you nervous from what happened last night?"

"I'm not really nervous but just apprehensive but I know I am safe with you. I'm just being paranoid" She chuckles. She trusts me!

"That's right sweetheart, your always safe with me"

She turns to me in her seat and I quickly look in her direction and we smile. She leans over and kisses me on the cheek then goes back to looking out the window as the world goes by. While all I can think about is the tingles left on my cheek.

I pull into the underground garage, I climb out and grab the picnic bag. We walk hand in hand to the elevator. The second the door shut the sparks that always are there intensify.

"What is it about elevators" I ask her rhetorically.

She chuckles but I can see her chest raising a falling a lot faster than normal so I know she is feeling the same as me.

I lead her through the apartment as she stands slightly behind me scared of what she might see when she walks in. When we enter she relaxes as she takes in the safe environment.

"Your apartment is beautiful and that view is incredible"

"I know" I say as I look at her instead of the view outside, I have the best view beside me.

"Oh, hello Mr Grey. I didn't expect to see you just yet Sir." Gail says

"Hello Mrs Jones. We had some time to kill before our other plans. Gail this is Anastasia Steel, my girlfriend. You will be seeing a lot of her from now on. Ana this is Mrs Jones my house keeper" I introduce them

"It's nice to properly meet you Mrs Jones. I hope you are okay after yesterday" Ana says as she hugs Gail

"Please call me Gail, its lovely to meet you Miss Steel. I am fine, thank you"

"Its Ana" Ana smiles to her

"Yes, I really am sorry about yesterday Gail. Please take the day off, you deserve that and a lot more after yesterday" I say apologetically to Gail

"Oh... em.. thank you, Mr Grey. You don't owe me anything Sir. I'll just finish cleaning then I will head home." She walks away backup stairs before I turn to Ana.

"So, would you like a tour" I offer her my hand

"Lead the way"

.

.

It's now 3 o'clock and we are back in the car to our next surprise. After I gave Ana a tour we just relaxed all day and I answered a few emails as Ana watched TV. I pull up in a parking space at the Safeco Field stadium where we are watching the Mariners game against the Dodgers. I remember Ana telling me she likes to watch baseball with her dad so I thought we could go watch a game.

"We're going to a baseball game" she asks as she practically bounces in her seat with excitement. I reach into the back of the car and grab two baseball hats, one of me one for her. I put it on her and wink as I put mine on and climb out of the car. We are now in the stadium being shown to my private box that I use for when me my dad and brother came to the games. The box is big with a living space with couches facing a TV which shows the game. There is a bar and a mini fridge, there is also food and drinks that will be brought to us. We exit the glass doors to the chairs outside where everyone else and we have a really good view. Ana is practically bouncing off the walls she looks so happy and excited, I'm so happy I could bring her this enjoyment.

"Christian this is insane, I can't believe you did this! Thank you" She has her hands in my hair as she kisses me on my lips and around my face.

"Your welcome, maybe next time we could bring your dad to the game"

"Yeah he would love that"

We go outside and get ready to watch the game.

APOV

We are walking back to the car hand in hand slowly enjoying each other's presence. I don't think I could move any quicker after the amount of food I have eaten. We had burgers and pizza with cans of soda. I ate so much but I defiantly don't regret it, it tasted so good!

"Today has been brilliant Christian, thank you"

"It's not ever yet baby"

We waited a while longer for everyone else to leave the stadium so it was safe; so barely anyone is around. It's nice and peaceful after the hustle from the game. I can't describe the way I feel when I am with him, it's like I've become alive and my life has truly just started. I think I love him but I don't want to say it to him just yet in case he isn't in the same place and he gets scared away. That would destroy me.

We finally make it to the car in the deserted parking lot; I am about to reach for the door handle when I am being turned around and pressed into the car. Christian has his body pressed against mine as he attacks my mouth. I am moaning into his mouth as our tongues battle in sweet torture. I lift on of my legs to rest on his hip and he takes the opportunity to grinned into my throbbing core through our jeans. Fuck that feels so good. Holy shit. I am moaning deep in my throat as Christian grinds harder. Suddenly I jump out of my skin when the car alarm goes off. We both jump; we defiantly weren't expecting that. Apparently, we were pressing way to hard. We look at each other then burst out laughing. I am glad nobody was in the parking lot because we almost lost it. He leans his forehead against mine as we catch our breath.

"Fuck Ana, what are you doing to me"

"The same thing that you are doing to me"

"Come on before I fuck you against the car door" I gasp

He reaches around me and opens the car door to stop the noise and I climb in.

.

.

.

We are driving and it looks like we are heading to Bellevue, more specifically Christians parents' house.

"Are we going to your parents" I ask confused

"Kind of but kind of not" He chuckles

"Please can you tell me, you've kept everything a secret all day and I'm very confused"

"Have you not liked the surprises" He asks nervously, almost sadly.

"Christian I've loved them! Gosh I didn't mean it like that, please don't regret what you have done today. I have had the most incredible day, please I just wanted to know this one time but if you want it to be a secret that's okay" I kiss his knuckle as we drive past his parents' house which is even more confusing.

We reach a steal gate and he reaches out of the window and presses in the code and they open. We are driving down a dirt road and if I didn't know Christian better I would think he is going to kill me. Its pitch black. He stops and we get out of the car. Like this morning we walk through the woods till we reach where we first kissed.

The Sound

"One of the last thing I want to do to end our perfect day was to come back to where I first fell for you. The moment you walked into my parents' house my whole body stood to attention and was drawn to you. The second we touched hands my whole body ignited. In that moment, I knew you were different and you were going to change my life forever. We've only known each other a few weeks but I know it Ana, I know I need you, I want you to be by myside. I am falling for you Ana and I never want to stop."

I'm a mess, I'm an actual mess. I have tears flowing from my eyes quicker than they ever have. My heart is bursting. That is one of the sweetest things he has ever said to me. I love him. I am 100% in love with this man. There is no doubt about it. I know it's early but I can't wait any longer not to tell him. Its itching to get out and be set free to the world. We've only known each other a week and a half but time doesn't matter, all that matters is how I feel for him and I know these feelings will last a lifetime and more.

"I love you Christian. I'm so in love with you. I knew you were going to be special to me that night. I know we have only known each other for a short amount of time but it doesn't matter to me. I know these feeling are real. I don't expect you to say the same to me right now but I just need to get it out-" I am cut by Christian crashing his mouth to mine. He has his hands on both sides of my face trapping me to his lips. I melt into his touch and his mouth. This is one of the most passionate kisses we have ever had. Anything could be going on around us and I would never know, I'm only in this moment with him.

We come back up both gasping for air with our lips swollen. He rests his forehead on mine with our mouths just inches apart breathing in each other.

"I love you Anastasia"
