A/N I apologize the last chapter was cut short for some reason,the last few lines start this chapter. It is now Thursday December 1st in the story. Thank you everyone for reading.

I do not own fifty shades.

I can't help the blush that creeps across my face. "So do you have a busy day at work?"

"Actually no, I have to finish making notes on a manuscript but I should be finished by lunch. I was going to ring Kate and see if she had time for lunch or some shopping or both. I'll take the afternoon off, I miss her and we need to have some girl time. If that's okay with sir?"

"I think some girl time will be good for you, Ana. Just make sure you spend some money."

"I will, I need to start some Christmas shopping." I say as Gail places the french toast im front of me and I happily tuck into it.

"Okay well you girls have fun. I have to get to work but I'll see you tonight. Love you Anastasia."

"Love you, too. See you later."

Kissing my head, he turns to leave "Laters, baby."

As soon as I get in the office I ring Kate knowing if I wait any longer I may not get to make plans with her. She answers on the third ring.

"Hey Steele, How are you?"

"Kate, I'm good. How are you?"

"I'm good. So whats up, Ana?"

"I could really use some girl time with my best friend. I was hoping we could do lunch today maybe a little shopping after if you can? I'm taking the afternoon off."

"Hell ya, I'm always down for some shopping. You can pick me up at 12:30 if that's good for you."

"Perfect. I'll see you later. Thanks Kate."

"See you soon, bye."

...

At 12:15 im finished with all my work, I pack up my stuff and let Hannah know im leaving.

"Hannah, I'm taking the rest of the afternoon. If anything needs approval send it up to Roach, you should be able to handle anything else. Email me if you need anything."

"Okay, Have a good afternoon Ana."

"Bye Hannah."

With Sawyer driving we pick up Kate and quickly find a little restaurant near Kate's work. We head inside arm and arm giggling like school girls. The hostess is very polite and seats in the back next to a window.

"Here you ladies go, your waiter will be right with you."

"Thank you" we say in unison.

"So how's things with Elliot? Have you guys set a date for the wedding yet?" I ask.

"Elliot's amazing, I just can't get enough him. Cant keep my hands off him" she giggles slightly "No date yet, but we have been discussing and I think we will wait until after you have our niece or nephew. It will give us time to plan and you wont have to worry up getting a dress fitted."

"Ohh Kate you don't have to do that, really have the wedding when you want. Dont let me being pregnant ruin your ideas. Its your wedding, it will be your day." I really don't want her to wait just because of me.

"nonsense, Steele. I want to wait it was my idea and trust me your not ruining anything." She gives my hand a reassuring squeeze.

Just then the waiter comes over to take our order. For drinks Kate gets a glass of white wine and I order a diet coke. We both order a caesar salad for starters and to keep it easy we both order a turkey club sandwich with fries. Once the waiter leaves we get back to talking.

"So how has your sex life changed since you've been pregnant? is it the same, worse or better? Spill it Steele." Kate says it with no shame at all.

I instantly blush just thinking about it. "Well I mean I guess it's better. We still sex as often as before but that's because if we did it more often neither of us would make it to work" I say it with a shy giggle. "Its better because my hormones are off the wall and I want to jump on him just looking at him."

"Really? How often do you guys have sex then?" Her curiosity is at its peak.

"Well on great days anywhere from 4-6 times a day but on average about 3-4 times a day. Usually with multiple O's each time." god this is an embarrassing conversation to have over lunch.

"Wow" just as she says that the waiter brings us our food and refills for our drinks then leaves us too it. "I'm impressed, I knew y'all were kinky but would have never guessed you guys were the energizer bunnies."

I cant help but laugh out loud at her comment. "Well enough about me and Christian, what about you and Elliot?"

"We have an amazing sex life, at least twice a day. But now im thinking your going to have to give me some tips, maybe some kinky tips."

" Ah, kinky fuckery, I can help with that."

"Kinky whatery?" she says amused

"Kinky fuckery, that's what Christian and I call it" comes out through a fit of laughter. "Do you use toys?"

"Well we have vibrators but the only other thing we use are handcuffs."

"See kinky fuckery," were both laughing now. "I have an idea, let's go to the adult store." she nods agreeing with my idea. Oh god what did I get us into.

I decide to text Christian real quick to let him know that Kate and I had a great lunch and now we are going shopping.

Once were finished with lunch, we pay our bill and make our way outside. Theres a store down the street so we decide to walk and Sawyer follows us in the suv.

When we arrive I head over to the suv to talk to Sawyer quickly.

"Sawyer, If Christian asks about our shopping trip do not mention we came to this store please? I want to get a surprise for Christian."

"Yes Ma'am" he replies with a nod.

"Thank you."

I turn back to Kate and we head into the store. This should be interesting.
