A/N So I see some people where not happy with what happened. They think Ana should have stayed, or think she is stupid...Well don't be so quick to judge...You still have to Christian's pov to read...it might just shock you all.
Chapter 10
Christian POV:
I can't believe Elena should dare to show up here after what she did on Monday. I know she is never one to back down from anything. She has always been known to go after what she wants no matter the cost. Well not this time. When Ana and I were walking back from the dock I pulled her to the side before we got into the house and told her no matter what happens that I love her and always will. I asked her if she trusted me and she told me with her life. That put the biggest smile on my face since Monday. I gave her a kiss on the check and we walked back inside.
Ana excused herself to the bathroom, where not 5 mins later I am getting a text from Ana.
Ana- Hey warning...Old hag is talking with Miss Pigtails...something is going on.
Christian- Don't worry about it. I will take care of it ;)
Ana- Alright, I trust you. I love you!
Christian- I love you too!
Ana comes out of the bathroom and I hold out her chair for. So far dinner has been good. A light conversation, nothing to heavy until Elena spoke up about Leila. I could kill her. What is she playing at? I keep noticing the way Elena and Gretchen keep looking at each other. Like they are having some kind of conversation. Yeah like that is not fishy at all.
" Grace dear, did Christian tell you I came to see him on Monday and introduced him to a young lady that I thought would be perfect for him?" WHAT THE FUCK? Did she really just tell my mom about a sub in a way? Ok you want to play it like that Elena? Fine game on! I look over at Ana and it looks like she can jump across this table and kill Elena, and I would for one not stop her.
" Um no he didn't say anything to me. Christian?"
" Yes, as I told Elena here, that I was not interested, as seeing I am looking to start something with someone else here soon. I am just working my way up to it." I have to smile at my mother then smile at my Ana. My Ana? Yes my Ana, if she will have me.
The conversation starts to pick up again, and I just keep a hold of Ana's hand which is on her smooth thigh. I want to run my hand up her leg and under her dress and feel her. But I know Ana won't let me seeing how we are in my parents home sitting at the table eating dinner. The main course is severed and Gretchen comes around refilling glasses. Elena nods her head at her and the next thing I know I have wine all over my shirt and on my lap. Gretchen gasps and tried to apologize over and over, but I don't want to hear any of it.
" Christian, why don't you go up stairs and change. I will put those in the was for you."
" Ok mom, I will be right back." I go to stand up and place a soft kiss on Ana's check and tell her to trust me. I head up to my old room, and go in search of some new clothes. I know I have some here as I have clothes at my office as well. I walk into my closet, grab a pair of pants, and a gray shirt. I walk back into my room, I start to strip and in my boxers when I look up to see Gretchen in just her bra and panties. She has her head bowed down looking at the floor. I am so angry right now.
" What the hell do you think you are doing in here?"
she dose not say anything so I ask again, but this time in my Dom voice. I think I have an idea, but I will test it out first.
" Well? Answer me now!"
" Sir, Mistress sent me up here to you, saying I was to give you want you needed." What the fuck? Elena has some balls doing this in my mothers house. I wont stand for this. She has gone to far this time. Ana was right. First thing tomorrow morning I am having Ros start the liquidation on all her salons. I am done. I am cutting her off. If Elena wants to play hard ball, then we will play hard ball.
" Get out of my room now, before I remove you."
" Sir, I can't do that. Mistress told me not to leave here till I gave you what you needed. I am to even make up made if I have to get it."
" I said get out now!" With that Gretchen lifts her head up walks over to me and grabs a hold of me. Wrapping her body around mine. I am trying to push her off till I see the door open and Ana walks in. She stops and the look on her face. The pain in her eyes. This is going to kill her, and me.
" Ana..."
" You fucking son of a bitch!" Ana walks over to me and slaps me across the fast. Man that hurts!
" Ana...let me explain."
" Go fuck yourself! Better yet, why don't you continue what you were doing before I walked in." With that she turns and heads back down the stairs. I rush to put a pair of pants on and chase her down. I am yelling after her. I don't care who hears me right now, I just know I have to stop her. She gets to the front door and I can hear her yell to to Sawyer.
" Luke, take me home please and hurry." I can hear him asking her if she's ok. What the hell? He better back off she is mine. I know they are friends, but it's like he is pushing the line here. Ana gets into the car and slams the door shut. I try to open it, but it's locked.
" Ana, please don't leave, not again. Please it's not what it looks like. I know I said that before, but please" I am pounding on the windows and running after the car. I stop as Luke takes off down the driveway. I stand there watching the love of my life fade away into the night. I stand there till I no longer see the taillights of the car. I turn around and see everyone has gathered outside to see what was going on. My mother has a look of shock on her face with tears in her eyes. My father looks so disappointed me in, Elliot has a confused look, and Kate...Kate looks like she can kill me right now. But the look that has me more looking at is Elena's. Her look is as one of victory. I start walking back to the house in a fast pace. That's it. Tonight is the night this ends. Right here, right now.
" Christian? What happened? Why did Ana leave? What did you do?"
" Mother please, I didn't do anything, can we go inside and I will explain everything."
" Grey! You hurt my best friend again! Give me a good reason not to kill you right now!"
" Babe, come on, cool down. I'm sure it was just a big misunderstanding. right bro? Tell me it was."
" Yes, all this is one big misunderstanding. Now please can we go inside and I will tell you."
We all walk back inside and head to the living room. Everyone sits down and I start pacing the floor, running my hand through my hair. Oh god, I am going to tell them. They are going to hate me once they find out.
" Christian, I think you better start explaining yourself, and telling us why Ana left here the way she did." My father is fuming at me. He loves Ana like she was is own.
" Christian, please." My mother sobs. I hate seeing her cry. But being the one that is making her cry, I feel even worse.
" Well, seeing how this is a family matter, I shall be on my way. Grace, thank you for the lovely dinner. I will call you tomorrow." Elena goes to stand up but I stop her.
" Elena you need to stay, this involves you as well."
" I think not Christian. Seeing how it's you who made Ana leave. I will be on my way."
" SIT DOWN ELENA NOW!"'
" Christian! that is no way to treat Elena. You apologize right now."
" No mother! I will not. And I think after what you hear you will no longer what anything to do with her."
" Christian..." Elena has fear in her voice. Oh yes Elena, you brought this onto yourself. It's time I came clean.
" No Elena. It's time I told them the truth." Elena gets up and makes a dash to the door, but Elliot grabs a hold of her arm and keeps her in place.
" Mom, dad. There is something I need to tell you."
" Christian..." Elena's voice is harsher this time."
" When I was 15 years old, Elena and I had an on going affair for 6 years." I heard the whole room brake out in gasps. I can't look at them. I feel so ashamed of what we did. How wrong it was. It was sick. " During that time Elena got me into BDSM. I stopped the fight, the drinking, my grades came up. I did all of this so that she would not beat or whipp me. If I did what she told me to do, she would reward me with sex.
" Christian?" I hear my father start talking but I hold up my hand to stop him.
" Please let me finish before you ask any questions. After our 6 years was up. She told me how to be a Dominant. Where I would have my own submissives. I would tie them up, beat them, whip them, flog them, then I would have sex with them. In no way was any of this forced. It was all consensual. We had a contact. They wanted me to do this to them. It was Elena who taught me how to have sex, or better word fuck women without them touching me."
" What the hell bro? Please tell me Ana is not one of them! I will kick your ass if you made her one!"
" Oh God Ana." Kate puts her hand over her mouth and gaps.
" Good god no! Ell, I have been out of that lifestyle for the last 2 years because I couldn't do it anymore. Every time I was with one of them, all I saw was Ana, and it made me sick to my stomach. It was then that I had to stop. I knew I couldn't do this anymore seeing that I was in love with her. I was just so scared that she could never love someone as fucked up as me."
" Christian, don't." My mother can't stay anymore as she is full on crying now. My father has not said a word. I don't dare look at him. I don't want to see the hate in his eyes for me. I know I am not worthy of their love, I never have been.
" So...so dose Ana know all of this?" Kate asks me with pain in her voice.
" Yes Kate. I told Ana this 2 years ago. I told her everything. And she still stood by me. She is my best friend and I love her and she loves me."
" Love is for fools Christian. You can't love. You don't know how."
" If I were you Elena I would shut that mouth of yours before I put my fist through it" My mother snaps at her. " Love is not for fools. The only fools in this room and you and I. You for being the sick whore that you are and me, for not seeing what you were doing to my baby boy. Oh Christian I am so sorry. Can you ever forgive me? For give her? She is asking me to forgive her? She has done nothing wrong.
" Mother, you have done nothing wrong to ask for forgiveness. It is me who should be asking you to forgive me. Forgive me for not being the son you deserve." My voice is cracking and I don't know how long I can keep my tears at bay.
" Oh my darling. You are everything I want in a son. You are smart, caring, kind. You give to those in need. You love your family, and you found love with Ana. All a mother wants is to see her children happy and in love. You have nothing to forgive."
I walk up to my mother and pull her into a tight hug. I have never been able to do this because of my scars, but I need to. I need to do this for her. To show her how much I love her and how much she means to me. My mother breaks down into sobs as she hold onto me tight. My father walks up to me and puts his hand on my shoulder and wipes a tear out of his eye. My family loves me. This is what it feels like to be loved by your family. I never want to lose this feeling.
" Christian, you can't have a normal relationship. You don't know how. You will come back to me. You will see that Ana can't give you what you need. She is nothing but a plain mousey little girl who will never be able to satisfy your needs."
" Your wrong Elena. Ana is much more than that. She is the love of my life. She is the only one for me. She is my forever." My mother gasps and gives me a smile. The look in her eyes when I say this I can tell that she is happy for me.
" Christian! I made you! I made you into the man you are today! You owe me.!"
" No, I don't owe you anything Elena, and in fact, if anyone made me into the man I am today it would be Ana! She has stood by me through everything! No matter what she was always there. Even when I pushed her away because all I could think about was getting laid. I hurt her, then and I hurt her now. But that is me listening to you. You filled my head with so many lies. Ana always told me what you did was wrong. I stood up for you telling her I needed it. Now I see she was right all along."
" You damn fool! You are really going to throw everything I taught you for her?" Elena laughs and throws her head back. She has no idea what is coming. Laugh now bitch, because you wont be for long.
" You really are sick and twisted bitch" Elliot comments.
" Christian is the man I made him into. He is mine and mine only!"
Grace walks up to Elena and slaps her across the face. Everyone has a shocked look on their face. But no more than Elena has. She cups her face in disbelief that my mother would hit her.
" Get the hell out of my house you nasty old whore! And if I ever catch you coming near my family again, and that goes for Kate and ANA, I will make your life a living hell do I make myself clear?" WOW go mom! I have never herd the Great Grace Grey speak to anyone like that. No matter how upset they have made her, she has never spoken like to to anyone.
" Grace..."
" Get...out...of...my...house! Elliot, please take out the trash."
" My pleasure mom." Elliot grabs Elena's arm tighter and walks her to the front door and throws her out. I don't care if fell or not. I am so glad that I was finally able to tell my family all this. I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I can relax without the worry of them finding out.
" Kate, I wont ask you to sign an NDA, seeing how you are dating my brother, but please, don't speak a word of this to anymore. I am trusting you with this."
" Christian. I would never tell anyone. I have no right too. But thank you for including me in this. So you never wanted Ana as one of your...what did you call them? Submissives?"
" Yes, and no. I never wanted Ana like that. I have been in love with her for 5 years." My mother looks at me shocked to see how long I have loved her.
" Christian, that would mean she would have been 15 and you 22."
" Yes mom, that is one of the reasons why I could never tell her. The age thing. I knew deep down that Ana was the one for me. But with my problems and everything, I never thought she would love someone like me, then Elena showed me...well you know, then I thought by doing that, I would save Ana the pain. I would give her a chance at love with someone who could love her like she needed to be loved."
" Christian, son. You are very capable of loving, and being love. I saw the way you two looked at each other tonight. It was pure love. If you came to us and told us how you felt, well, things might have been different. But no matter what, I will always love you. You are my son and I am so proud of you." My father pulls me into a hug and I hug him back. I can't get over the feeling how good this feels. To be able to hug my family after 24 years of not letting anyone touch me. It was only ever Mia and Ana who could. And Ana was able to touch me more than Mia was.
" Now, son. Why did Ana run off like she did. She went up stairs to get you and next thing we know we hear her yelling and you running and yelling after her."
" Well I went up stairs to change and when I came out of my closet in just my boxers, Gretchen was in my room in nothing but her bra and underwear. She told me Elena had sent her in there for me. She said that she was I was needing, and she threw herself at me and that is when Ana walked in. But don't worry. It is all ok.
" Ok? How the hell is it ok? My best friend stormed out of here after seeing you and the blonde bitch in your room naked just about"
" Kate, trust me. It is all ok."
" How?" I tap the said of my noise. I go to tell my family that I need to get home and take care of a few things I need to take care of. I need to call my lawyers and have them start the paperwork to end my part of the salons. I am going to take everything way from her. She will be penny less once I get done with her. Tomorrow I will be getting Ros to start the liquidation and then the war will be on. Once Elena knows what is going on she will put up a fight and I want to be ready. I will be putting all my ducks in a row for this fight. I call Taylor to get the car ready. I tell my parents that I will be glad to talk to them and answer any question they have, but first I need to get some things done.
" Bro wait up for a min." I turn around once I get outside. I see Elliot shut the door and walk up to me. He pulls me into a hug and slaps my back. " Bro I can't believe you hide a secret sex life away from me. I thought you were virgin. Hell I thought you were gay!" I have to laugh at my brother.
" No Ell, I am not a virgin or gay. I have had just about the same if not more women then you have."
" WOW my brother...sex god too. So can you tell me about some of the things you did? Not really the hard core stuff, but maybe some things that I might be able to try out on Kate." He wiggles his eye brows at me and I give him a belly laugh. Only Elliot would take a confession like I gave in turn it into something he could use in the bedroom.
" Elliot, why don't you call Andrea and set up a time for lunch and we can talk about a few things. I might even show you my playroom."
" WHAT? You have a playroom? Damn can me and Kate test it out?"
" No you can't"
" Why? Do you plan on using it with Ana?" He once again wiggles his eye brows at me and gives me this grin
" No Ell, I am thinking about getting ride of the room. I am pretty sure Ana is not into all that."
" How do you know bro? She might have a kinky side to her as well."
" Ell for now lunch, we can talk about things, and I can give you the name of the guy I use to get all my stuff from. He will help you out if you choose to try this."
" Thanks bro. So, are you going after Ana? You going to make things right with her? I mean you love each other, and what I walked up on down that the dock tells me that you two are meant to be."
"Ell, I going now. I will see you later." I give him a wink and get into the car. I let out a big sigh and lay my head back against the headrest. Close my eyes and think how this day started out so good and ended up with the beginning of a war.
" Home sir?" Taylor pulls me out of my thoughts.
" Yes Taylor. I need to get a hold of Welch and Barney and let them know to start pulling Elena's files from the salon and run a check on her. I want to see if she has been up to anything else. I don't trust her and I have a feeling things are only going to get worse before they get better, so please be prepared."
" Yes sir. I never did trust or like that women to begin with. She was always so nasty to Gail. Giving her orders, like she ran the show. I for one am glad to see you get ride of her."
" Thank you Taylor. Now as for Ana?"
" Don't worry, Sawyer as already checked in, and everything is good on that front."
" Good, let's go then." The ride back to Escala was short and quite. We reached the underground garage, Taylor drops me off at the elevator telling me he will park the car then come up. The ride up to my penthouse felt like a life time. I kept seeing the look of pain in Ana's eyes. The hurt on her face. But her voice. Her voice was cold. Not my sweet Ana's at all. My heart breaks knowing I caused her pain once again. The elevator doors open I walk out but stop in my tacks once I reach that great room. There is a figure standing with their back turned looking out the window. The figure turns around slowly and I have to smile. Even in the moonlight her eyes shine bright blue and her smile warms my heart.
Ana runs straight into my open arms and I swing her around. I breath in her scent. Vanilla and Honey. Her arms are tight around my neck and I am holding onto her waist. I set her on her feet, move a lone hair behind her ear. I smile down at her. I see the love in her eyes for me. I lean down and place my lips against hers. Her lips are soft and smooth. I lick her bottom lip and she opens her mouth giving my tongue access to her mouth. Our mouths move as one. Our tongues dance a slow dance. Ana moves her hands up my neck and into my hair. She pulls my down to get closer to her, while I have my hands tight around her waist pulling her to me. God I never thought I would be kissing Ana. Who knew kissing would be such a turn on? I grin my hips into hers, letting her feel just how hard I am for her. She moans into my mouth. I can feel the heat coming from her. If I don't stop us now, then I won't be able to and I can't let this get to far. Not yet anyways. I want to do this right with her.
I back away, placing one more soft peck on her lips and resting my forehead against hers.
" Hi" I say in low voice.
" Hi yourself. I didn't know how long you would be, so I had Luke bring me here. I wanted to make sure you were alright afterwards."
" I'm fine Ana, I'm better now that you are here." She gives me a smile telling me there is no where else she rather be right right.
" So, how did it go? Did it work like you thought it would?" I pull back grab her and and lead her to the couch to sit down. I pull her close to me. Holding on to her placing soft kisses on the top of her head.
" It went better than I thought. She showed her true colors tonight. I wish you could have seen it. Mom slapped her and went off on her. She even threanted Elena, that if she ever came near her family, you and Kate included, she would make her live a living hell."
" Wow...I wish I could have seen that. How did it go with you telling your family everything? I wish I could have been there to support you through it. I hated leaving you alone with her while you told them."
" Ana, we talked about this. It was needed you to leave like you did. Elena thinks you want nothing to do with me. My family thinks the same. Now we just need to buy some time. This will work out. I promise you. Everything will be ok. We can finally be together."
" I know, I just wish we could tell our families. How long before we can tell them?"
" I want to make sure we get everything we can from Elena. I am having Welch and Barney go through all her files at the salons and at her house and getting ride of everything that has to do with me. This is going to get out, and I really don't want to be in it. I just want to forget about it, but I know there are others and I want to help them out as much as I can."
" Your an amazing man Christian Grey. I love you with all of my heart."
" I love you too Ana. You are my forever." I lean down and give her a passionate kiss that shows just how much I love her.
A/N...Ok who saw that coming? It was all a set up to get Elena to reveal herself and show her true colors to Grace. Christian finally told his family about what happened. Christian and Ana finally get their first kiss. All is left is keeping their relationship hush hush till Christian can get what he needs before they come out. He wants to make sure she wont do anything to mess up his chance of happiness...So Next chapter...Kate talks to Ana about everything, while at school and guess who shows up there? Some new people will come into the next Chapter and want to cause trouble and or try to start things up with a blue eye beauty..How will Christian handle this? How dose his lunch talk with Elliot go? Will Christian show him his playroom? Keep on reading...Also keep the reviews coming along. Until next time...
Much Love,
Allie.
