Since most all my other previous chapters have been focused on Ana and Christian and their children and wider family, I thought that it was time for a chapter of some Ana and Christian, one on one time. Though it is shorter than my previous chapters.


Since we are free...


Ana's POV:

"Thanks, Hannah. Can you organize the usual lunch menu for the head of department meeting for our monthly review on Monday? Also, Boyce Fox emailed me. He has finished his new book and would like to hand the manuscript to me. As you know he likes to be traditional. I believe I should be free on Monday morning. Let me check my schedule" I open up my calendar and it seems that I am unusually free tomorrow and Monday. Strange! Hannah looks strangely uncomfortable. "Why is my calendar so free for tomorrow and Monday? The monthly meeting isn't even scheduled?"

"I.. umm.." Hannah uncharacteristically struggles to produce a coherent sentence. "Maybe there's an error? I .. I can contact the IT department."

Before I can reply there is a quick knock at the door before it opens. There standing like the master of the universe that he is, is Christian Grey. My husband.

"Christian?" I state his name as a question. He occasionally surprises me at work, but I am taken back by his presence today. His work schedule has been crazy lately, working on one of his largest acquisitions to date. Christian leans against my doorway and gives me him million dollars, panty-dropping smile.

"I will let you two have some privacy," Hannah says making a quick exit.

"Do we have an appointment?" I ask playfully.

"Unscheduled, but I believe your calendar is free for the rest of today, tomorrow and then even Monday," Christian announces as if this fact was common knowledge.

"That it is, as I just discovered." I guess it's not an error.

"Curious. So is mine." Christian replies seriously then smile. "Kate and Elliot are picking up Ted and Phoebe today from school when they collect Ava. In fact, they've offered to look them until Monday evening. "

"For four nights? That would be the entire time that we both coincidentally don't have anything scheduled?" I query.

"Yes. They wanted to say thank you for looking after Ava for two weeks when they went overseas to celebrate their wedding anniversary." Christian states matter fact.

"Kate did mention something on those lines to me last weekend, though it should be noted that it was us who gave them the first-class two-week trip to Europe." Christian chooses not to focus on this point.

"My assessment of the situation is that since we aren't needed in our respective offices until Tuesday, and our children are being cared for by relatively responsible adults. We could disappear until then and no one would miss us, as long as we turned up Monday evening to pick up our offspring ."

"That is a fair evaluation, Mr. Grey."

"Are you ready to leave?"

"Do I get to know where we are going?" I already know the answer to this question as I grab my bag.

"Someplace that you and I can be alone." Christian takes my hand and pulls me close to him, that there is no space between us at all. "God, you are beautiful. I want to spend the next few days loving you. No work calls, emails, meetings... Nothing but us."

"What about your acquisition?" I query.

"Done, finished. All the paperwork is finalized. All done. I am afraid we are a hell of a lot richer as of two hours ago, especially as I have already sold the assets we didn't need at a pretty profit."

"That's a relief, I guess we can afford a few days away then," I state comically.

"I would say that's an accurate assessment. Come, the sooner I get you out of here, the sooner I can make you cum."

"I am at your mercy."

I walk out with Christian, and before I am able to tell Hannah I am leaving she speaks. "I will tell anyone who calls that you are indisposed until Tuesday and take messages for you. I have already pre-moved all your meetings. Have a wonderful long weekend."

"Thanks, Hannah." When Christian isn't looking she winks at me, making me grin. Obviously, she was in on these plans, as she controls my calendar. Andrea, under Christian's orders probably told her to do so.

Inside the relative privacy of the tinted windows of Christian R8 Audi, I throw off my black blazer, undo the first few buttons of my silk white blouse, teasingly revealing the top of my cleavage. When I notice Christian glance at me from the corner of his eyes, I cross my legs, allowing my wrap around black skirt to open slightly, purposefully revealing my lace top thigh high silk stockings. Thank gosh I wore these today.

"Anastasia, if you continue I am either going to have a car accident or have to pull over and take you here on the interstate."

"I don't know what you are talking about." I act innocently.

"Oh, I think you do. Touch yourself" I swallow hard and look around. There are cars on either side of us, though we are moving quickly, and the windows are tilted. It is unlikely that they would see us. "Anastasia, I told you to touch yourself."

I take a deep breath in as I guide my hands over the silk of my blouse, playing with my nipples and massaging my breasts.

"Go lower." Christian orders in a low voice. I do as he requests but go one step further. I raise my backside, slip off my lace panties and then ceremoniously drop them on Christians lap. I smile as I watch him part his lips slightly and breathe out. He picks them up, smells them and then pockets them. Kinky bastard! I moan as I slide my hands through my folds, feeling my moisture.

"Let me hear you, Ana. I want to hear you enjoy your touch. " I comply happily and arch my back as I try to stop myself from climaxing. "Don't stop but don't cum." My eyes are closed. I focus on Christian's two instructions, breathing deeply to relax.

It isn't until I hear Christian speak that I realize he has made a call on his Bluetooth system.

"Sir?" Taylors familiar voice echoes through the car, shocking me to stop. Christian looks at me quickly and shakes his head. He mouths 'Don't stop'

"Taylor, I need to make a quick detour. Circle around Escala. We will be driving into the carpark. I need to take care of something. I will call you when we're ready to continue our journey." I blush horribly. Taylor will know what is going on.

"Understood."

"Also, call ahead and have the cameras in the bottom car park turned off." Christian hangs up and a few minutes later, pulls into the garage of Escala and parks behind one of our Audi SUV's that we keep here and the back wall, in the bottom car park that we own.

"Car sex?" I ask. I bite my lip strategically, making Christian have to shift in his seat.

Without saying a word, Christian gets out of the car. I had expected him to get back in, via the passenger side, but he has other plans. Christian opens my door and holds his hand out. I take it trusting my husband completely. He helps me out and leads me to the hood of the car, leaning me over it. I look around, though I know no one else would be around. Christian unzips his pants and wasting no time, fills me, fucking me hard and fast.

"Come for me, Anastasia. Cum!" Christian grunts, tipping me over the edge. My muscles clench around him tight, milking him, as I meet him thrust for thrust. Relief fills us both as we catch our breaths and laugh.

"I have to say, Anastasia, that wasn't part of my plans, but it was a damn good start to our getaway."

I sip on my favorite tea while I sit on the soft outdoor chairs, reading Charlotte Bronte's, 'Villette' again overlooking the Cascade mountains. The scenery is serene. I take a deep breath and feel completely relaxed. In the distance, I see the familiar figure of my husband running back to our cottage. He took off over an hour ago with Sawyer close behind him. Christian still works out daily which is obvious from his physique. He never seems to tire. Not when I met him and not now. Regardless of work, our two busy little children and myself.

"You are a sight for sore eyes" I could say the same thing about my husband. Christian pulls off his grey sweatshirt. The sun behind him only highlights the impeccable specimen that is my husband. "Though your eyes look a little tired."

"I didn't get much sleep last night." Christian grins proudly. Of course, he would. He was the one that kept me up all night.

"Have a shower with me and then let's have breakfast before we go out."

"Out? We are going out? Where?"

"The only place we have ever gone. Up."

# # # #

"Can you keep going?" Christian asks me. I nod, stopping for a moment to have a drink of water. When he said we were going up, I never expected that he meant going for a hike up one of the mountains. "Are you sure? I could carry you"

"I doubt that." We have been hiking for over four hours now. There is a path which has made it relatively easy and majestic views kept me going.

"Are you challenging me, Mrs. Grey?"

"It wouldn't be the first time."

"That smart mouth of yours." I bite my lip, intentionally and start to walk ahead of Christian. Though I am only in front for a nanosecond. My feet are off the ground before I register it myself. Christian has bent down grabbed me by the top of my thighs and thrown me over his shoulder.

"Christian! Put me down!"

"Not until we get to our destination"

"We won't make it there if you keep carrying me."

"Yes, we will! You are still too light" Christian complains. After years of marriage, I eat more than I ever did, but I also work out and have Christian to keep me fit. He picks up the pace, forcing me to grip his sides. Several minutes later, Christian stops and slides me down his body until my feet are reunited with the ground.

"We are here," Christian announces.

"Here?" I question and look around. To our right on a large flat rock, is a picnic rug with cushions, a picnic basket and a champagne bottle on ice. "How did you manage this?"

"Would you believe me if I told you that I came up here during my morning run and set it all up?"

"I would actually" Christian has proven that he can do anything. I wouldn't put anything past him.

"I wish that was true. But no." Christian takes my hand and leads about twenty feet away. I look down and find a valley where Charlie tango is parked. "I had help." I could care less that he didn't do this all on his own. The fact that Christian planned and organized this picnic, this whole weekend, means everything. I place my hands on his face and kiss him passionately.

"I love this. I love you!" Christian looks relieved and his eyes glow, full of contentment and love. With youthful excitement, he takes my hand and leads me to the picnic setting. We eat the wraps and drink as we talk. Christian is talking about the latest developments his team has made on solar technology, and as usual, is animated over it. Acquisition and mergers are the main reason for his wealth, but it isn't his true passion. Developing new technology and seeing how it works is what actually drives him.

"Did I drift off? I open my eyes, feeling comfortable, having leaned against Christian. I am so comfortable that I don't know if I just closed my eyes or fell asleep.

"Yes. You have been asleep for about an hour. I was waiting for you to wake up before we head back to the cottage." I nod and yawn. I fear it's going to take longer to go back than it did to come up, even though we are going downhill.

"Don't worry. We are taking Charlie Tango. We will be back in no time." I don't ask Christian how he knew what I was thinking. He is able to read me like a children's book. "Besides we have a very important meeting to attend, back at the cottage. One we can't and won't want to miss."

"There's more?" I ask. While I love all the attention and detail Christian puts into everything to make even the smallest activities special, I have to admit I am tired.

"Always more Mrs. Grey, for you. "

Christian looks at his watch concerned, though gives me reassuring smile before we take off. It only takes several minutes to land close to our cottage. Coming in from above gives me a proper look at our accommodation. There are several secluded little picture cottages, strategically located. Of course, we are the only ones here with security. Christian booked out the other so we wouldn't have to worry about other people. It allows for 'activities' to occur where ever we wish. Last night, before we went to bed, we made love outside under the stars. The only embarrassing moment was when I realized that due to the mountains it echoes. Christian has teased me saying that I was so loud that I scared the birds away.

Christian wastes no time, getting out and helping me down, and almost racing up the stairs. Taylor meets us at the door and signals two minutes to us, making Christian sigh in relief. I watch as he collects our iPad and connects it to the portable wireless connection.

In a matter of seconds our very important meeting comes to view. Our two little children, Phoebe and Ted.

# # # #

I swim slowly in the freshwater lake, before floating on my back, closing my eyes, and forgetting the world exists. I am only brought back to the here and now when I feel Christian behind me. I wrap my arms around him and lean my head against his neck.

"What time do we leave?"

"Soon. Our bags have been packed up, except for our change of clothes. Taylor and Sawyer are doing one last check and then when we are ready, we will head off." I feel sad leaving such a peaceful and perfect place, but am eager to see the kids. They were full of stories when we spoke to them via the iPad, but Phoebe started to get upset that we weren't with them. Kate picked her up and cuddled her, reassuring her that we would be back soon. Elliot made Phoebe laugh by tickling her and reminding her how they had big fun plans that night. Ted, being a little older understands that we are coming home soon and will have our full attention.

"Thank you, Christian, for this weekend. It's been perfect. It's almost a shame for it to end."

"Then I suggest we end it with a bang." Christian lowers his hands to my bikini bottoms and undoes the sides and then removes my top.

"Christian, my bathing suit!" He holds my garments above his head preventing me from retrieving them.

"I think I prefer you like this instead." In an attempt to distract him, I kiss him passionately before jumping up to grab my bikini. Christian is too quick and ends up throwing them. He looks as surprised as I am when they get caught in the flow of the river and vanish out of sight.

"Oops...don't worry, I will have Caroline Acton replace those." I laugh and shake my head. I wrap my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist, though dig my toes under the elastic waistband of Christians shorts and pull them down. If I have to be naked in the river then so does my husband. Mr. Control freak doesn't even flinch. In fact, he steps out of his shorts, joining me in my unplanned skinny dip.

"You only had to ask." Christian places his hands on my backside and lift me up. "Wrap your legs around me again." I comply happily and moan as he fills me. Christian moves fast, causing ripples in the water.

"Oh.. Christian," I yell out, as I climax around him, forcing him over the edge. Christian catches his breath and places small kisses on me.

"I think you scared all the birds again."

"I blame you"

"I am happy to take the blame for that!" I giggle at the seriousness of Christian vice and kiss him.

"Mr. Grey, take me home. I want to see our children, have dinner together, read to them, then put them to bed. Afterward, I want you to put me to bed and make love to me again"

"Your wish is my command."
