Chapter 4 - Seattle - Home
I wake up for the first morning in my bed and as a married woman. It feels so nice to be in your bed after a long vacation. My sleep schedule is so off because of the time change I still feel tired. I roll over to see if Christian is still sleeping I see on his pillow a rose and a note.
" Baby, I am in the gym working out. I will check on you when I come to take a shower. I let you sleep because I know you are tired. I love you."
Love,
Christian
I smile at the note and feel tears start to come. He is the sweetest man on earth. I listen for a minute and I hear the shower turn off. I missed the shower with him. The door opens and out walks the love of my life in nothing but a towel and still dripping wet. This could be good.
" Good morning, I didn't know if I would see you up before I left. "
" Let Christian where are you going? I look at him and put."
" I am going into work. I am sure I have missed a lot of office gossip I need to catch up on. No not the gossip but I do have to catch up."
He walks into his closet and l flop down on the bed, well I guess this won't be as good as I thought. He comes out of his closet looking all CEO. I can't help looking at him. We have been together for two years but everyday I fall in love with him even more.
He comes over to me and leans down to kiss me. I put my hands on his suit coat and pull him down to me. He looses his balance and falls on top of me. I deepen the kiss and I feel his hands travel down to hips and to the apex of my thighs. His hands start to pleasure me and I can't help but to push my pelvis up to meet it. I start talking off his tie and unbuttoning his shirt. Then I take his coat and shirt all the way off. He then starts teasing my nipples with his tongue. Then he moves his head down and replaces his fingers and hand with his tongue. I am lost in the feeling of him. I don't want him to go anywhere. I want to do this all day long. He comes up and starts to take off my shirt. Then he sits up and removes his pants. Before I know it he is back on me and in me. He begins kissing my neck and our breathing gets harsher and harsher. He kisses me and we both fall apart together.
He lays with me in the bed for a few minutes I keeping wondering when he will get up and have to leave. I snuggle in closer to him hoping showing him I don't want him to go will keep him here with me. At least for today. He pulls me tighter to him. I feel him put his nose in my hair. I let out a very satisfying moan neither of us has said anything yet. Christian is the first to break the silence?
"What would you like for breakfast baby? Or are you not hungry yet? I can go let Mrs. Jones know what we want. "
For some reason I am surprised by his words I thought that they would be how he has to go. I look up at him and he just looks so gorgeous.
" Christian I am not sure what I would like I guess something light. Maybe yogurt and granola. What are you going to have?"
" I think I will ask for an omelet this morning. I will be right back baby. "
He gets up and puts on his sleep pants and a t shirt and leaves the room. I am feeling a little confused but happy maybe he going to stay and spend the day with me. I try not to get to excited incase that is not what is happening I get out of bed and pick up his work clothes and lay them neatly on the chair. I don't them to wrinkle if he is going to need them. I go and stand by the window and look out at the view of Seattle. I can't believe we will soon be leaving Escala and living in a home on the Sound. I hear the bedroom door open and soon I feel Christian wrap his arms around me and he kisses me behind the ear.
I turn around and kiss him. He is my life and I want him to know he will always have my heart.
" Christian before Breakfast I need to type a letter and then take it to Mr. Roach. I meant it when I said I don't want to go back to work. I don't want anything to take away from my time with you. I know you have to work and if you want me to I will but, you are my life and my heart and I just want to be yours and have you as mine."
" Ana, I am not going to make you work if you don't want to. Baby you are my everything and I will support you in all you do. Yes I want you to stay home and do what you want and let me take care of you. I don't want you to ever have to worry about anything. Baby I am not going into work today. I will do some stuff at home. But, I know you want me to spend some time with you. I know you were never say it but, I can read you. What would you like to do today? I am all yours?"
I am so happy that I start to cry. He never fails to make me the happiest person in the world.
" I want to sit with you and cuddle while we wait for breakfast. When you were in the hospital I read to you and you said you liked it. I want to get a book and read to you and then eat. Can we go out to the property today? "
" Baby, we can do all of that. I would be just happy holding you in my arms all day and looking into your beautiful blue eyes. "
" Christian you just are amazing. Let me get dressed. I will find you a book we can read later. Let's eat and then drive to our property. Do you have any idea of an architect we could use?"
" Yes I do have a couple in mind I will call them after Breakfast and then we can maybe meet with them today before or after we head over to the property. I want this house to be perfect for you. I want it to have everything you want."
Mrs. Jones let's us know that the breakfast is ready we sit at the breakfast bar together eating. I start telling Christian more about the art I saw at the queen gallery. I know he likes art and I am sure he will want to find some beautiful pieces for the new house.
While Christian goes to get his phone and call some of the architects he was thinking of I go into the library and find a book to read to him later today. I was going to read to him before breakfast but he distracted me. I want to read to him because it was a very trying time for us but it was very intimate reading to him when he needed me it was one way I brought him solace while he was healing.
" There you are baby, I got some numbers we can call. When did you want to head out to the land? I am going to make some of the calls and set up appointments. Then we can head out."
" Christian, I was just thinking about when you were in the hospital and I felt so scared and hopeless. I want you to know that I love you so much and I am so glad you are here with me."
" Ana, what is bringing this on? I mean I am happy to hear that you love me and I love you too but, baby let's have a great day planing our home and being together. "
" I am sorry Christian I don't know what brought it on maybe looking for books to read. I just started thinking about how I almost lost you and I just needed you to know that I love you. Yes,lets go now and see our land and talk to some one about building our new home."
He takes me in his arms and kisses me so gently he always knows just how I am feeling and he is always there for me either just to listen, or to make me laugh or to put his lips on me and make me forget all my troubles. Loosing him is a big fear of mine and I almost did and I never want that to happen again.
We get ready and Christian decides for us to go alone and take the R8 and first we have an appointment to speak a Mr. Scott Stephenson who Christian says is a very good architect and he can build us a home that will be just like I want. I am very excited because finally we will be beginning to have our house come to life.
When we get to downtown Seattle Christian parks and we walk together to the building it is a nice day outside. The sun is out. When we get to the building Christian opens the door and let's me go in first. It is beautiful inside it's a beautiful sand colored marble and beautiful gold accents. I have only seen one other building look as beautiful and elegant as this. It's my husband's building of course. Nothing compares to the beauty of Grey House. I sit down in the lobby and watch Christian speak to the receptionist her eye light up at the sight of him and I smile because I know she can look but he is and will always be mine. He turns and starts walking over to me.
" Mr. Stephens will be right out baby. Do you want anything to drink, they have coffee, water or tea?"
" No, I am alright thanks Christian. This place is beautiful isn't it Christian?"
" Yes, I suppose so if you like gold and sandstone. I am more a grey and silver and blue kind of guy. "
I laugh at him because he looks like his is sulking.
" I know you are and I love the colors you choose for Grey house baby. I just think this is a nice place as well. "
I put my hand on his knee and lean over and kiss him.
" Ana I know I was just kidding you. But, there will be no sand color marble in my new home."
" I thought you said I could have anything I wanted?"
" Yes, I did and if you choose Sandstone I will love it because I love you. "
Mr. Stephens comes out of his office and he stops to speak to some one who is sitting in a chair closer to his office. He then sees Christian and starts walking towards us. Christian's up.
" what a pleasure it is to see you. I can't tell you how excited I am about the possibility of designing your new home. It will be a great honor. "
" Thank you Mr. Stephens. This is my wife Anastasia. She will have all the final say on everything for this home. If she is completely happy and satisfied than I will be."
" Of course Sir, Mrs. Grey the pleasure is mine to be working with you. Shall we go into my office and talk about building your new home. "
I shake Mr. Stephen's hand. " It's nice to meet you too Mr. Stepehens. Yes please I am very excited to get started. My brother in laws company is going to be building the home. He is very talented and I know he will love to see your plans as well. "
" That would be wonderful. Would you mind if we take pictures of the property and the home for our magazine and portfolio? We have a brand new contract with an excellent photographer and I know he would love to be the one to take pictures of your home."
I turn and look at Christian. He shakes his head at me and says,
" My wife and I are private people and we don't promise any pictures of our property or home being taken by any one. Also I will not hire any one who chooses to use the designing of my home a bragging right for them. So the answer to that is no. "
" Mr. Grey please forgive me I didn't mean to offend you. I just wanted to ask because well frankly I think any one who designs your home will be using it as a feather in there cap whether they are up front with you about it or not. But, I understand and no pictures will be taken."
" Good. Ana come let's go I am not sure if Mr. Stephen's is the man we want to work with. "
I take Christian's hand and he leads me towards the door.
" Please Mr. Grey I never intended to insult you sir. Give me another chance to win your who business."
" I am sorry Mr. Stephen's but I am not the kind of man who does business with some one who I thinks doesn't respect me or my private life. "
While Christian is talking to Mr. Stephens I look over and see the man he was talking to get up. He picks up a camera bag he must be their photographer. When he turns around I see his face. It's Jose. I know in that moment that Christian is right it's time for us to move on.
" Christian we should go there is no second chances I will not work with a firm who hires people like Jose Rodriguez to take there photographs."
" Ana what are you ok? Baby?"
" No Christian I want to go look over there talking to the receptionist. I want to leave. "
Christian turns and sees Jose. He puts his arm around me and says nothing more to Mr. Stephens. We just walk out.
" Ana I am sorry. I hate that you had to even see him. We will find some one to design our home I promise. "
" Christian I think I am being just being a stupid, jealous and paranoid wife. I have nothing to even be paranoid about. I think we should just call Gia Matteo and have her design the home. Baby she does great work. I know you personally don't like her but you can just let me go to the meeting with her and i will make sure our house has exactly what we both want. I am sorry you had to see him also. I love you Christian. I just want us to have our house. "
" Ok, I will call her and we can meet with her at Escala this week. Let's out to the property I have brought a blanket and I want to have some fun with my wife in the great outdoors. "
" Christian Grey please lead the way. "
The property looks just as beautiful as I remembered it. It is so peaceful to look out on the water. I lay with Christian on our blanket and look out at the water. He has just made sweet love to me and he was so tender and sweet I know he feels bad that we ran into Jose and he wanted me to get lost in him for awhile.
Christian sits up and pours some wine and hands me a glass.
" Christian this is the most beautiful place I have ever seen. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life here with you. "
" Well if we don't call an architect we will be living out here in a tent. "
I laugh and lean over and kiss him.
" Here lay back I brought a book let me read to you. It will relax us both then we can call Miss. Matteo and start our future. "
On the way back to Seattle and Escala. We ride in silence. It has been a great day just relaxing and exploring our property. I look over at Christian he looks happy and relaxed. I am so glad he took the day and just relaxed and spent some time with just me. We got away from everything today it seemed.
When we get back home. He goes into his office to work. I decide to take a shower.I know tomorrow Christian will have to go to work maybe then I can go meet with Gia and we can talk about the house and maybe a time line. I will make my focus getting our house designed and built. I really want a glass wall looking over the sound I know that is something Christian has talked about too.
Christian comes into the bathroom while I am in the Shower.
" Ana, I know it's getting late in the day but, I am needed in at the office. Somethings today happened that need my attention. I will be home late. I told Gail to have dinner for you and I would eat when I get home."
I shut the water off and leave the shower. I see him standing there looking at me. I walk over to him and and I kiss him.
" Christian I will be ok. I am sorry I made you stay home today you wouldn't have to be going in late if it wasn't for me. Call me and let me know when you are coming home I am going to eat with you. "
" Ana you didn't make me stay home. Baby , I would not have stayed if I didn't want to. I love you and I wanted to be with you. I am sorry we couldn't have had he whole day. I will see you soon I promise. "
He lets me go and I gab a robe and put it on so I can walk him to the elevator. When he leaves with Taylor I am happy that Sawyer is still here and Gail I don't want to be alone. I decide to go and call Kate.
" Ana how are you? Did you have a great honeymoon? I thought I might hear from you sooner but, I am glad that you called. "
" Kate Christian has gone to work and I was wondering if you would want to come over and visit or maybe we could meet and have a drink?"
" Yes, that would be fun. Can you go out or should I come there? I mean sometimes Mr. Fifty doesn't like you to leave the house."
" I know but today he didn't leave me any instructions. Why don't we meet some where? "
" Ok sure let me tell Elliot I am heading out and we could meet let's saying 30 minutes. We could go to the purple cafe."
" Ok Kare that sounds greatI will see you in a bit. I am not sure but I might have Sawyer with me. I would like to take the saab and just come myself. "
" Ana don't do anything that will get yourself in trouble. Unless you like to get in trouble."
" Sometimes getting in trouble with Christian can be very satisfying but no I don't like to get in trouble. I do think I like the make up sex though. I will see you in a bit Kate. Goodbye. "
I go into the bedroom and get ready and then I decide not to let Sawyer know that I am going out I really want my life to be like Kate's and just get to come and go as I want. I have to think about what I will tell Christian if I do leave Sawyer behind and how upset he would be. So I do what is right for me and my husband. I go and find Sawyer.
" Sawyer, I want to go to the market up the street and get some of Christian's favorite chocolate so later this week I can bake him a cake. "
" Mrs. Grey I will go get the car."
" No Sawyer I would like to just take the Saab if you don't mind. I won't be gone long. I will also be meeting up with Kate so all will be ok. I promise to keep my phone on me and close. I just wanted to alert you to be on notice in case I need you. "
" Ma'am I am not sure. But, let me get a hold of Taylor and make sure he thinks Mr. Grey is alright with that. "
" Ok I am going to get the keys to the Saab let me know. "
I have the keys already and I get in the elevator and then make my way to the car. I really do want to get some Chocolate for a cake so I go to the market first and get the chocolate. I call Kate and have her meet me and we leave the Saab parked and I leave my phone inside so Saywer can't track me. We then proceed with our girls night out.
I use Kate's phone and I txt Christian and let him know that I am with Kate and I will be alright and not to worry. I tell him I still want to eat dinner with him so I will be only be gone about an hour.
" Ana I can't believe you blew off your body guard. I mean won't he go crazy looking for you. "
" He will call Taylor and Christian first. That is why I text Christian with your phone he will be able to let Sawyer know where we are and than it will be ok. "
" Do you remember Alicia Kent from College. She was a year behind us. In Jose's class?"
" Yes, I do remember her. How is she?"
" She is good I saw her the other day at the Bunker Club when Elliot and I were there. She has gotten engaged. You will never guess to who it is. Jose Rodriguez."
" Really, wow I am really glad for them both. I hope they are happy. Did she mention anything about the wedding?"
" She said that it is going to be next month at the Fairmount Olympic hotel.I guess Jose must be upset at us both because we never got inviations. Oh well I am not sad at all. "
" Kate me either. I don't care I saw him today but, he didn't see me or Christian I don't think. He is working for a firm Christian was looking into to design our home. But, they didn't fit with what Christian wanted. So we didn't use them. We have decided to use Gia Matteo. "
Kate looks at her phone. I know exactly who has just sent her a txt. She looks up at me and smiles.
" Ana, your husband would like me to have you call him. He says please so maybe he is not too mad."
" Thanks Kate."
I take Kate's phone and walk outside to the rest room. I call Christian.
" Ana, why didn't you take Sawyer with you baby? I don't want anything to happen to you. I am trying to stay calm and be reasonable. You could have told me your plan."
" Christian I am sorry. I know I should have told you. I am at the bunker club with Kate you can have Sawyer come and get me and take me back to my car. I love you and didn't mean to make you worry. "
at
" Ana, I know you just wanted some time with Kate like you had before you met me and I am so sorry you can't have that. Why don't you stay with Kate. I will have Sawyer take me to the Saab and then I will come and pick up baby."
" Christian I love my life with you. I don't miss my old life. I didn't mean to make you think that I did. I will wait for you here with Kate. I love you and I only want you not my old life. "
" Ana, I love you too and I am trying to not keep you from life. I just worry about you because people like to get to me all the time and I want to protect you from that. I have about an hour left here and then I will come and get you. "
" Christian I will be here waiting for you. I love you and I am sorry. I didn't tell you. "
" Ok Ana, I will see you in a bit. Wait for me there."
" Ok I will Good bye Christian."
I go back out and let Kate know what happened. I let her know I am surprised he is not upset with me or at least that upset he says he was but he was trying. I know he hates things that are out of his control. But it is nice for once that he knows I was not doing this just to make him mad. That is very nice for a change.
Kate and I are just talking and laughing when Christian gets to the club. I am so happy to see him. I stand up and kiss him and hug him. He seems tense. I guess maybe he is still a little upset.
" Hey baby come on let's get home Gail will have dinner for us. "
I look at Kate and she says, " I should be going too. It was nice seeing you Ana. We will have to do this again. But next time don't sneak out of your house so the fun police doesn't have so show up and take you home."
" Kate I had a good time and don't say that Christian is not the fun police the body guards would have been that. Take care an I will call you tomorrow. "
I hug her good bye and then walk out with Christian. We walked to the SAAb and he doesn't say anything. I wish he wasn't upset I take his hand because I don't like the distance between us. He doesn't pull his hand away but he doesn't say anything to me. He takes me to the passenger side of the Saab and opens my door for me. Then he gets in to drive us home.
" Christian please look at me. "
I take my hand and place it on his cheek. He turns his face to me and leans his face into my hand. I lean in and I kiss him. He allows me access to his mouth and we both start to kiss and reconnect. He puts his arms around me and I put my fingers in his hair. I have missed him and I wan him to know that I didn't do any of this to make him mad or because I hate my life with him.
I take one of my hands from his hair and I gently place it on his cock and he moans and I rub and squeeze him. He is mine and I want to bring him pleasure. I slowly undo his pants and slip my hand inside his pants. I begin to slowly massage him and I feel him grow and stiffen in my hands. I break from the kiss and go down and take him from his pants and place him inside my mouth. He begins to moan and he wraps his fingers in my hair. I begin to move up and down faster and faster. I know when he is almost there because his whole body stiffens and I feel his warmth fill my mouth and go down my throat.
I sit up and kiss him. I can see in his eyes he has relaxed and is in a better mood.
" Ok, now that you feel better let's go home and eat and then road two. I want you inside of me of me again. "
" Why Mirs. Grey you are a greedy girl. I can't wait to get you home and do just that. Thank you for helping me relax. I love you. "
When we get home we eat the wonderful dinner Mrs. Jones has made for us. Then Christian takes me into our bedroom and he takes me into the shower with him and lifts me into his arms I wrap myself around him and he slides himself inside of me and once I again. I loose myself and we reconnect with each other in my favorite way.
