Thanks so much for the reviews, now I'm spoiling you all a bit with another chapter, when I get the chance I will type and well today provided me with that chance! This is only a very short chapter, but it is full of 'fluff' and Ana and Chris meet with Christian YAY!

Christian POV

It's been a few days since I had the talk with my family. Now it's really a matter of trying to work through all my shit so that I can approach Ana, try and have a civil conversation with her and then hopefully meet Chris properly and treat them both like they should be treated, with care, with love.

I have been blocking all of Elena's calls, I know she will turn up soon it's inevitable for her, but until then I have put her out of mind and am concentrating on the two people I want in my life the most.

It's Graces birthday today. I've just finished work for the day, I'm running late and stressed like you wouldn't believe. Bloody incompetent assholes made me run late for mum's birthday, normally it wouldn't worry me too much, the family would know that I would turn up eventually. But with trying to win Ana and my son over I really need to build a better relationship with my family too.

"Taylor, I need you to stop by the florist so that I can get some flowers for mother, I have no time to change, so I will just have to go like this. So after florist it's straight to Bellevue".

"No worries sir", says Taylor.

Once Taylor has stopped at the florist, I quickly dash inside, find mum the most beautiful looking bouquet that's in the shop, pay for the flowers and quickly dash back outside to the car. Of course though in my need to rush, I feel myself tripping. I manage to catch myself but I am losing the flowers. I see them leave my hands though I don't hear them hit the ground.

"Oh for fucks sake" I scream and look around to see where my flowers went.

I hear some coughing and look down and see that my flowers are covering up something or someone. I then hear a little voice.

"Look at the pwetty fwowers mumma".

I then shoot my head back up and I am met with big blue eyes, Ana!

Before I can say anything I hear Ana speak "Chris honey they are not your flowers, give them back to the man and lets go". I can see her trying to pull along some sort of carry bag, suitcase thing. Ah you little fucker of a bag you must have been what I tripped on. Think Christian this is fate, use this wisely for crying out loud, you can't fuck this up again.

Before Chris can hand me back the flowers, I crouch down beside him. He goes to hand me the flowers but I move a bit closer to him and say "give them to your mummy". He looks at me questioningly, so I continue "do you think your mummy is pretty?" He nods his head. "Well tell her those are for her because she is pretty. We men don't need flowers, do we buddy, and we just have to give them to all the pretty ladies like mummy".

Chris then has a bit of a giggle grabs onto flowers with both hands takes them to Ana and says "thes for you mumma, cwas you pretty, dat man says we don't need flowers cause we men and we gived them to pwetty liked you mumma".

I look up and see a tear running down Ana's cheek as Chris hands her the flowers. Then she looks over at me. "You have to take them now Ana, they are from this little man here and he is right you know, we men don't need flowers we just give them to all the pretty ladies. And well it's a peace offering for me too. I was a complete assh…ah I mean, a douche bag the last time we spoke". Shit I can't be swearing in front of the kid. "And well I kind of just wanted to say that I am sorry and hope that one day you will give me the time of day so that I can talk to you again, maybe take you out for a coffee and ah, um get to know you, um maybe".

Shit Grey what's with all the stuttering, you sound like you are a 15 year old asking a girl out for the first time. Well that's probably because you are.

"Mumma what a douche bag?" Chris asks and looks at me

Ana has a chuckle and says "well Chris it just means that the man said some mean things to mummy and now he wants to say sorry".

"Why you mean to mumma, mumma pwetty" Chris then looks up at me.

"I then crouch back down to Chris's level and say to him, loud enough though so that Ana can hear. "Your mummy is the most beautiful woman I have ever met and when I seen her last time, I was very shocked to see her and sometimes when adults like mummy and I don't expect something or we get a shock we say some mean things". Hmm how can I put this in his terms.

"Let's just say if there was a dog on the street and he came and knocked you over because he wanted a pat, what would you do?"

Chris's face turns in a little growl and he says "that dog be nwauty for jump on me I tell him to sit and say bad dog". Well that wasn't really a good line but oh well, I just try and explain it again.

"Well that's right Chris, the doggy shocked you because he jumped on you and he was a naughty dog, I was a bit like that with your mummy, I was a naughty dog and said some naughty things, but now I want to be a good dog". Man I hope that makes sense.

Chris then pats my head and says "you good dog now".

I burst into laughing at this and so does Ana.

"Hey man what funny". I just continue to laugh, so much so that I am nearly rolling around on the ground laughing, wow if the paps were to get a photo of this.

"You are, you are" I can't even get any more words out I am laughing too much.

"Oh buddy, you are just the cutest little man".

"I no cute, I am Chris" and he hold out his hand for me. "What you named man"?

"Well would you believe it if I told you my name is Chris too? Well it's actually Christian, but you can say Chris if is too hard".

"Cwistin"?

"Yeah buddy that's pretty close" I respond to him.

"Mumma, mumma" Chris says as he tugs on Ana pants, "that Chris like me or Cwistin, he name like me mumma".

"Yes it sure is sweetie" Ana then looks at me and gives me a small smile.

Well thank heavens for that I think to myself.

Just then my phone rings, its dad.

"Hi dad"

"Son where are you, I hoped you haven't ditched your mother, it's her birthday".

"No dad I promise I haven't, I just stopped off to get her some flowers, my meeting ran late damn incompetent as….ah men" good save again Grey.

"Ok then son, so you will be here soon then".

"Yeah dad I will".

"Ok then we will see you soon".

"Ok dad, bye" and I hang up.

"Hey Cwistin you talk to you dad?"

"Yeah buddy I did, it's my mummy's birthday today. I have to buy her some flowers too, because she is pretty lady just like your mummy".

Ana then interrupts, "here take these for you mother".

"Its fine Ana, you take them, you sure deserve more from me then a bunch of flowers but that has to be a start right?"

Before she can respond I pull a business card out of my pocket. "I have treasured this small amount of time I have got to spend with you and with Chris, please Ana if you can ever forgive me for the way I acted the last time we seen each other, give me a call. It's totally on your terms, if you don't want to reach out to me I completely understand that and will stay away and well if you want to call that will make me the happiest man alive". And I give her my 'panty dropper' smile just for a bit more encouragement.

"I have to go now Ana, but hopefully I will get a call from you". I lean over a give her a small peck on the cheek, if this is the last time I will see her I want to make it count. And this is way better than us screaming at each other. Her face is so smooth and soft. Ok step back Grey before you take her on the street. I slowly step away from her and look back at her. Ana has her eyes closed and is breathing in and out deeply. Have I affected her too? I sure hope so, it feels like my whole body is on fire.

I crouch down beside Chris and go to shake his hand "you be good for your mummy ok buddy? You look after her and make sure you tell her everyday just how pretty she is".

"I will Cwistin" he says as he learns how to shake hands.

I stand with one last look at Ana and say to her "bye Ana".

"Bye Christian" she responds.

"Bye Chris"

"Bye Chris" Chris says back to me.

And I walk away back into the florist to get those flowers for my mother.

Short and sweet guys, what did you think? Next will cover a bit of graces dinner and how CG feels about his run in with Ana and Chris and will also look at Ana's thoughts too, and well hopefully she will get her butt into gear and make that phone call…..
