CHAPTER 11 – AND THE COMMUNICATION STARTED

After series of discussion, debating, disputes, scrutiny and review, we handed our designs and materials to the tailor. I have opted to green instead of black dress and Kate is going with my original design with red material. We were off for lunch. We decided to have pizza. While having lunch, my phone vibrates and when I checked… I couldn't help grinning like a lunatic.

Hi. I can't stop thinking about you after

dropping you off. What are you doing?

I am having lunch with Kate. What are

you doing? Don't you have an empire

to run?

"It's Christian!" I beam at Kate. Kate rolls her eyes and continued with her pizza.

Yes I have an empire to run but

I also have you to run after…

Sent 12.47pm, 5th May 2011

Now I can't shake off the face splitting grin on my face. "Why are you grinning like a lunatic? It does not suit you Ana…What did you guys did yesterday after you left the pub?"

You need not to run after me. I

am not running anywhere… I am

with Kate. I will message you once

I am on my own.

I told Kate what happened and I told her what Jose did. She became furious. "What hell was he thinking? Were you ok after that?"

"Yah.. Christian took me for dinner but I had wine during dinner. He said its light but I can't tolerate alcohol at all. We went to his room and I felt very light headed and he tucks me to bed."

"Ana.. There is more. I know. Spill it."

"He kissed me" I whispered and blushing scarlet red.

Kate's jaw dropped and finally after she recovers from the shock, she says "Your very first kiss! Ana.. How was it? Tell me how you felt"

"Shut up Kate. Come let's go."

I dragged Kate out and we went home. After a quick shower I am off to Clayton.

It was a quiet day and I took out my phone to text Christian.

I am on my own now. So..

have you stopped thinking about me?

Sent 6.45pm, 5th May 2011

I can never stop thinking about you

Anastasia. How was your day? Anything interesting?

Sent 6.46pm, 5th May 2011

Is he always staring at is phone? His response is instant.

My day was fine. Kate and I had appointment

with the tailor for graduation dress. Nothing

about me is interesting Mr Grey.

Sent 6.48pm, 5th May 2011

Everything about you is interesting to me

Anastasia. I can't wait for tomorrow's dinner.

My belly muscle clenches sweetly when he said that. Now… am I ready to be with him?

At 8, I walked out and I notice a man was standing leaning against my car. As I approached, he stands straight and says, "Good Day Ms Steele.

I looked at him puzzled and it struck me. This is the James Bond

"Good Day Mr…." and he say "Sawyer. I was appointed by Mr Grey to look after your security. Mr Grey told me that you are now aware that I am following you as you security detail. So I am here to made myself known to you ma'am.

Ma'am? Have I aged so much? "Thank you Mr Sawyer. I am going home now and I don't think there is need for you to be here."

"No Ma'am. I am to follow you until you are safe at your apartment before leaving for the day."

"Alright." And with a nod I leave to my apartment and Sawyer was following behind me. His car is a better car then mine. How rich is this guy?

Once in the apartment, I decided to gulp down a cup of yoghurt and retire for the day. After a quick shower and brushing my teeth, my phone rang and the caller ID shows Jose.

My anger started to boil. How dare him. I ignored his call and watched nonsense show on the television for the next one hour. Finally I could not tolerate the singing on the show and decided to retire for the day. Kate is not home yet and I sense she might be with Elliot. I locked my room door and lay on my bed. My thoughts went to Christian. I typed a quick text to him.

I saw the James Bond you assigned.

Sent 9.45pm, 5th May 2011

Hahahaha.. yes. I thought he should make himself

visible after what I have told you yesterday. I hope

you don't mind. Why aren't you sleeping yet?

Sent 9.47pm, 5th May 2011

I am about to sleep and you crossed my mind.

I will go to bed now.

Sent 9.48pm, 5th May 2011

I can keep you accompanied…

Sent 9.49pm, 5th May 2011

Thank you Mr Grey but I have to be in the temple

for prayers at 7am and later at work at 9am

tomorrow. I have to work for living.

Sent 9.51pm, 5th May 2011

I too need to work for living Ms Steele.

I have my business decisions to make besides

looking after you.

Sent 9.52pm, 5th May 2011

I don't need looking after. I am a big girl.

If you are working for living, I am amazed on

your speedy reply to my texts. You are always

replying my text fast.

Sent 9.54pm, 5th May 2011

Your texts are more important than any other messages.

Even if you are a big girl, I will still look after

you.

Sent 10.00pm, 5th May 2011

As I have an early morning tomorrow. Till later,

Good night and sweet dreams.
