Hi everyone. I'm back. I do not own fifty shades. Enjoy.

Christian POV

I still cannot believe what I heard. The girl that Kate was speaking to was my Ana. I had not lost her, I just did not know her full name. With that thought I start to get angry and I know Taylor can sense it too. He has immediately gotten on the phone and has walked away from me. Why did our checks not come back with her full background? How could they have missed this? Taylor nods and we are off. Kate has said that she will take us to Ana's new apartment. I tell Kate its better if she goes with us, to save time and parking and I am thankful she agrees.

I have to bring myself back to the now. So I think back to the fact that in a few minutes I am going to be face to face with Ana. Now my mood has gone from anger to nervousness. I have these weird fluttery feelings in my stomach and my palms are getting sweaty the more I think about seeing her. I feel like a teenage. What if she does not want to see me? Did she not call because she wanted to forget? Was I that horrible of a host and caregiver to her? No, I couldn't have been. I did everything I could to make her feel comfortable and to make her better.

I am still thinking of the time we spent together and not to the drive. It's not until Taylor clears his throat do I notice that we have pulled over and he has the door open. Kate is already out the door waiting for us on the sidewalk. When I realize where we are, I cannot believe my eyes. She lives in my building? How could we have not known this? I have been living that close to Ana and had no idea.

We enter the building and head straight for the elevators. Luckily there is one waiting, so we pile in and before Kate hits the number to Ana's floor, I tell Kate that I live here and am going to go change before I go see Ana. We stop at Ana's floor and after Kate gets out, the doors close and I cannot wait to get to my apartment. As the elevator is moving up, so are the odd feelings I am feeling. We arrive at my penthouse and as I am exiting the elevator I am also removing my tie and suit jacket. I have never quite been so nervous in my life. I change and as we are heading back to the elevator, I notice the flowers on the entry table. I quickly grab them for Ana. We get back in the elevator and head back down to her floor. The doors finally open after what seems like forever, but I can't move. Am I sure I want to do this after all this time? Am I ready to see her? With a helpful nudge from Taylor I am off the elevator, and before I know it we are standing outside Ana's door.

Hesitantly I knock on her apartment door.

Ana POV

I still can't believe Christian was in my apartment. I had thought of the moment that I could see him again, but never did I think it would be in my own apartment.

When I first saw him standing in my living room, my stomach had started doing flips and my breath hitched. There he stood in his jeans and t-shirt. How can someone make a simple outfit look sexy? Wow. What am I saying? This is the man that helped me get clean. I shouldn't be thinking of him other than how to thank him.

As I bring myself back to the here and now, I realize I have been staring at him the whole time. Funny thing though, he has been doing the same. Kate has been talking but I have no idea about what. It's as if it's just me and Christian in the room.

I finally make out that Kate is leaving just as she is walking out the door. I'm sure she is going to call me in the morning to see what went on.

I giggle when I try to think of what Kate is thinking which breaks both of our gazes.

"Hello, Christian."

"Wow, Ana you look incredible. So much healthier."

"I am. I'm five months sober and I'm in therapy. I'm even taking online class in the spring."

"That's great."

I ask him if he wants a drink and when he says just water, I motion to the couch and ask if he wants to have a seat while in fetch the drinks. I head back to the living room with our drinks. Christian is already sitting so I sit in the opposite side of the couch. We sit in silence for a few minutes before I ask him how he knows Kate.

Before I know it, the clock says 2am. We have been sitting on the couch talking for hours but yet it seems like minutes. Our conversations are more of a catching up nature and some friendlier topics. It's been so long since I have been this comfortable with a man other than my dad. It's seems during our talks, we have both moved closer to each other and are sitting facing each other. I have watched him as he talked and he really is handsome and educated. He takes a sip of water and licks his lips.

Hmm… I wonder what it would be like to have his tongue on me. Wow. Where did that come from?

I don't want this to end, but I can't be selfish. He had spent the night here when he could have been anywhere else. I can't help wanting this not to end. I have thought about this moment and each time I have pictured myself giving him a kiss and a thank you for Aspen. Now that he is here, I am like a scared girl. What if he freaks out? What if I scare him thinking I want to sleep with him?

"Ana, I have thought about the time I would see you again and have had so many scenarios go through my mind. Now that you are here and in front of me I am at a loss."

"Me too. I owe you my life. I have no idea how you thank you."

"You don't need to thank me. I'm glad you are doing better. You look good. Very healthy."

"That's because of my therapist and you. I was a mess before that night. I'm surprised I didn't overdose. Today when I saw him everything from that night came back to me."

"Will you let me help you again?"

"How? I'm not going to use I swear."

"I meant by letting one of my security officers follow you. I'll make sure they stay a safe distance away and not infer unless necessary."

"I couldn't ask you to do that."

"You're not. I'm offering. You won't even know they're there."

"Okay. Thank you."

"Wow where did the time go? I should probably get to bed but I'll call you tomorrow."

"I'll wait for your call."

As I shut and lock my door for the night my mind is racing. My day when from good to bad then unbelievable. I found Christian again.
