A/N: All mistakes are mine- un Beta'd
Wednesday June 8th 2011
I woke up this morning and realized that I no longer have past scenes to work with. I will no longer know what's going to happen. I'm on my own.
Thrown into the deep end of life.
Fuck, I hope I don't screw this up.
I get myself out of bed and make my way to the bathroom, I'm pretty sure that's where Ana ran off too. It is after seven, time to get to work.
I really should have been at work an hour ago. But, I'm not in a hurry.
When I enter the bathroom, she's standing in front of the mirror in only my shirt.
And I mean only my shirt.
My dick is hard…er then it was when I woke up this morning.
I want her. Here. Now. Shower, counter, it doesn't matter where; I need to have her.
She sees me in the mirror and grins wickedly, as I rub my hand up and down my shaft.
"Seems like someone is happy to see me." Ana says, her eyes never leaving my reflection in the mirror.
I walk to her and put my arms around her. My hand travels under the shirt to my find my goal, and rub my fingers over her soaking wet core.
"It seems I'm not the only one excited." I bite down on her neck, leaving love bites up and down her neck and shoulder. I push my two fingers inside of her and start pumping. Her head lolls back against my shoulder and my lips find her.
She's all I need to start my morning out great.
"We should make this fast, I don't want to be late for work." She pants.
"Then let's get you in the shower. Get dirty before we get clean again…"
I pull the shirt over her head and scoop her into my arms. Her legs wrap around my waist and her hands around my neck. I open the door to the shower and reach in to turn on the water.
I walk into the shower and Ana yelps as the cool water hits her back. I let the water run over both of us as I capture her lips in a searing kiss. I push her against the wall of the shower and slide my cock into her, without breaking from our kiss.
Her moans are silenced by my mouth, as I start to pump in and out of her. Her hands knit into my hair as her head falls back.
"God, Christian…" Her legs wrap tighter around me as I pick up my pace.
"You like this, baby?" I ask before my lips find the place behind her ear that drives her wild and start to suck.
"Yes-s-ss-" She hisses.
My lips trail down as she thrusts her chest at me, so I can suck on her hardened nipples. I move my hand back that's holding her up and trace my fingers along the cleft of her ass. She moves slightly as my finger traces over her rosebud.
"Can I try something?" I pant, as I glance up at her.
"Yes.. whatever.." She mutters, almost too lost in the sensation of me fucking her. I can feel she's close, so I risk it and stick my index finger in her ass, slowly.
She groans at the invasion, but it spurs on her impending orgasm as she comes around me.
I move my finger in and out, "Do you like this…?" I pant heavily. I can feel myself getting closer.
"Uh-huh…" Her head falls onto my shoulder as I keep my pace up. I can feel her tighten around me again.
She's enjoying the feeling of me finger fucking her ass.
Who knew?
"Cum for me, baby." I whisper before claiming her lips again and kissing her long and hard. She contracts around me, becoming a squirming mess, as I pour myself into her.
We stay cuddled with me still holding her tightly, her head in my shoulder, for what seems like forever, enjoying our post orgasmic bliss.
I finally help put her back on the ground and she's a little wobbly on her feet. I hold onto her, keeping her upright.
"Was that ok?" I ask, holding up the offending finger.
"Yeah, I liked it." She blushes.
"Don't seem so surprised. We can do that again. We just have to work you up slowly for me."
She noticeably gulps at me and looks down at my dick. "That will fit in me? Back there?"
"Yes, it will just take some training. Don't worry. I'll take it slow with you. Now let's get cleaned up."
X-X-X-X
"Crap! I'm late." She mutters as she slips on her shoes.
"Just tell them the new boss needed a meeting." I wink.
She shakes her head at me, "Yeah, that will go over sooo well." She comes over and pecks me on the cheek. "And you're not my boss, yet."
"By the end of tomorrow, I will be." I smirk and she rolls her eyes. "It'll just be a couple of weeks before anybody knows." I shrug.
She just shakes her head at me, grinning. "I have a feeling I'm going to be in trouble with the big boss a lot. But I need to go, I love you, and don't worry about tonight. "
"I'll try, and I love you too, now go before I make you extremely late."
She gives me a quick kiss on the lips and is out the door.
An hour later I have made it to the office. I have a lot on my mind today. I can't stop thinking about how to tell Elliot and Mia about my past with Elena.
I also have to remind myself that they won't hate me. But it really isn't something I want to talk about with my sister.
Before I get down to business the first thing I do is check my e-mails.
To: Christian Grey
Subject: You seem to be the only boss I can make happy.
From: Anastasia Steele
Dear Mr. Grey,
Thanks to your shenanigans in the shower this morning I was fifteen minutes late.
Jack was none too pleased with my tardiness.
I mean it is only my third day. I can't really blame him.
Plus, the paps outside the office didn't help to that. He's been nothing but snippy and rude. He seems to have something up his ass. If he doesn't; it might be my foot soon ;)
So, now I've been swamped with work, but I wanted to tell you that I love you.
Ana xx
I'm grateful to see that she used her blackberry to send me this message. Especially, with a message like that.
To: Anastasia Steele
Subject: You please this boss very well.
From: Christian Grey
Dear Miss Steele,
I don't know how I feel about you putting your foot up other men's asses.
I don't like sharing even if it's just your foot… because it's a pretty sexy foot. And it's mine.
Don't work too hard. Hyde will find his place soon.
I'm hoping the media will back off soon when they figure there's nothing new. My life isn't that exciting.
Please keep Sawyer close if you go out.
I love you too.
Christian Grey
CEO, Grey Enterprises Holdings, Inc.
To: Christian Grey
Subject: I would love to please my boss some more tonight ;)
From: Anastasia Steele
Mr. Grey,
I promise to keep one's foot to myself. I just might have to lose a heel instead.
I promise to keep Sawyer close. Hyde wants me to go get his lunch.
*insert eye roll. *
Maybe he'll feel better after a sandwich. Maybe I should get him a Snickers too.
It also doesn't help every time one of the girls mentions your name, he becomes twice as vile, and the daggers he sends…. I might as well be the target girl for a knives thrower in the circus.
I'm guessing he's not a fan of yours?
Now quit bugging me, I have work to do.
See you tonight

Ana
To: Anastasia Steele
Subject: Tonight
From: Christian Grey
Anastasia,
Your last subject line holds a lot of promise. I look forward to you pleasing me and in return I plan to send you to heights you haven't seen before.
So, I hope you keep your energy up because it's going to be a late night.
Laters baby
Christian Grey,
Waiting in anticipation CEO Grey Enterprises Holdings, Inc.
I pick up the phone and dial Welch's extension. I need more information on Jack Hyde and I need it now.
"Yes, sir?"
"Have you been able to find anymore on Jack Hyde? Anything at all."
"No, not yet. Barney is still working to get through the firewalls he has on his computers. It's going to take a little more time."
"As soon as you know get it to me."
"Yes, sir."
I hang up the phone and feel even more frustrated. I need to get to the bastard. I need to find out what he is hiding. And I have a feeling it might have something to do with me. Call it a gut instinct. But I feel it.
And I'm going to find out just what it is.
Another e-mail arrives and it's from my dad.
To: Christian Grey
Subject: Elena Lincoln Charges
From: Carrick Grey
Christian,
Elena is being charged with:
Attempted murder of Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey.
Two counts of Child molestation
Two counts of Child endangerment
Six counts of child porn
And one count of Fraud.
The FBI has taken over part of the case and are working to build a stronger case against her. The child porn alone could have her seeing up to forty years., I just got off the phone with an Agent Morgan and they think they have enough against her, to not have you involved. If they do come to you, just be honest. Remember you did nothing wrong.
They have the video of what went down in your office. However, Elena is pleading not guilty to all charges. Her bail was denied. And now we are just awaiting a court date.
Her lawyer Thomas Woodrow, was quite surprised by her not guilty plea. I just found out that he quit her case…
As you might know his wife, Kathy Woodrow is a friend of your mothers….
She'll be hard pressed to find any good lawyers willing to help her in her case. Even the best defense lawyers in the country want nothing to do with it.
I'll keep you posted and let me know how it goes with Elliot and Mia. I know they're both wondering what is going on and are both quite worried.
If you need anything don't hesitate to call.
Dad
Really, not guilty?
I know what's she's trying to do. And she'll be hard pressed to think I'm going to help her out of this.
I push it aside for now. I won't let Elena ruin another day. She's in jail where she belongs.
Five o'clock rolls around and Taylor and I meet Ana outside of her work. It seems the paps have tapered off, leaving only one or two flies around.
I get out of the car and the cameras start clicking, I wait only a few seconds for Ana to come out. I don't know if I should, but I decide to give the photographers a show.
It's not like they're going to leave us alone, till we're married.
Now, there's an idea….
Ana approaches me with a bright smile on her face and it almost instantly eliminates all the worry I have for my impending talk with my siblings.
Yes, with her I can do almost anything.
I take her hand and pull her body to me, giving her a searing kiss on the lips. Her body melts to mine as her hands find my hair. I can hear the paps clicking away at our very public display of affection.
"Hi, missed me?" Ana asks, smirking at me.
"Very much."i brush my thumb on her cheek.
"Mr. Grey, kiss her again." One of the photographers shouts.
Ana and I both look over at him. She must have forgotten about them and hides her face in my chest. I on the other hand give them my best death glare and they stumble away.
You had the chance to get your shot, now be gone. Rodents.
I put my arm around Ana and help her to the back of the car.
"I guess our picture will be on the front of a magazine tomorrow. I wonder what my dad will say about those pictures." She giggles slightly.
"Maybe something like 'tell that boy to keep his hands to himself.'"
"Yeah, he might say something like that." Ana shrugs. "How was work?"
"It was fine. Same old, same old. Oh, and Elena has been charged with our attempted murder." Ana pales slightly and I take her hand in mine. "It's ok, she can't hurt us now. I don't think she'll be seeing the light for a while. Pretty much my mother and father are doing a good job seeing to her lawyer situation. At this rate, she will have to deal with a court appointed lawyer. Which I'm sure would bomb her case. Plus, on top of that, she has added charges of child endangerment and fraud."
"And where would you come into this? I mean, wouldn't they trace her to you?"
"I'll be talking to the FBI but I'm sure they have enough to get her without having to use my involvement. Plus, I don't think it would take her long to plead guilty."
"Well, no matter what. I'll be here on your side." She gives me a kiss on the cheek.
"Now, just to face my brother and sister."
X-X-X-X-X
At six, Elliot and Mia enter the penthouse. I didn't give them any answers to why I wanted to meet with them; just to come over so we can talk.
Ana and I both greet them. Mia squeals when she sees Ana.
"It's so good to see you, Ana. I'm so glad to know my brother hasn't chased you off yet."
"Mia…"
"Alright bro, you know I'm leaving for the Barbados to hang with your girl's best girl, get my drink on and catch up on some needed sun. So, what's up? You had me a little worried on the phone."
"Yeah, spill."
I lead them to the couch so we can all sit down. Ana takes my hand in her and gives me a nod.
"I'm sure you heard what happened with Elena yesterday." I start.
"Yeah, it was all over the news. Mom and dad wouldn't say anything... why in the world did she try to kill you and Ana?" Eliot prompts
"It's a long story, and well…" I feel Ana put her hand on my leg and squeeze. I look at her and she smiles at me, without words, telling me I can do this.
"Elena sexual abused me when I was 15. We ended up having an affair for six years. Without going into every detail, she showed me a way to have sex without being touched." I spit out quickly. "She, later on, was the one that hooked me up with women, that were in the same lifestyle, that didn't want relationships."
I am NOT explaining BDSM to my sister. Elliot maybe, Mia no, unless it's absolutely necessary.
Mia and Elliot's eyes are as large as saucers.
"She did what?" Elliot snaps. "How did I never…"
"You were in college already, and I would've never said anything. I was too brainwashed to see it all. She made me stay away from you, thinking there wouldn't be any why you guys would understand. She gave me the money to start my business. I really did think up until a month ago, she was my friend. It's only now becoming clear to me, that what happened between us, was wrong. I have no idea if my past will come to light with the media… but I needed you guys to know. Because I'm sure it's going to be a bit of a ride, till she's locked up forever."
"So, that's what all the shouting was at dinner the other night was?" Mia asks.
"Yeah, mom and dad found out what had been going on that night. Elena was trying to convince me that Ana wasn't right for me. Things were said, and mom hit Elena and she ran out with her tail between her legs."
"I don't believe this…" Elliot shakes his head and starts pacing the room.
"I'm sorry…"
"What in the world are you sorry for? You had no control over this…. I'll be right back. I need to go find something strong to drink." He grunts and goes to find his way to my office where I keep my good stash.
"Mia? Are you ok?" Ana asks her softly.
She looks up at me with a few tears in her eyes. She nods and comes over to me, wrapping her arms around me.
"It's ok Mimi."
"It's not. She hurt you. She took you away from me. You were so closed up for years. She took my brother way from me." She cries into my shoulder.
I hold her to me, "I'm here now."
She nods her head into my shoulder and backs up. "What can we do, to make sure she rots in the pits of hell?" Mia wipes her tears away, now determined.
"I agree to that sentiment." Elliot comes back in the room with a glass of amber liquid in his hand.
"I think it's being covered. I just need you guys in my corner and I didn't want you blindsided by this."
"You know we're here for you man. Anything you need." Elliot comments. "But, I hope I never run into her on the street." He mutters.
"Me too."
"So, yesterday… she tried to harm you and Ana because you outed her?"
"She pretty much came in looking for Ana I think…" I pull Ana close to me. "She knew she wasn't in control of my life and saw Ana as the reason why. So, she thought if she was out of the picture she would take us both out. She almost did, but then she tripped."
I laugh inwardly, thinking of Ang tripping the bitch.
"Ana? Are you ok?" Mia asks.
"I'm fine. I trusted Christian to know he wouldn't have let anything happen. I saw Taylor, I think he would have gotten to her. But, it was still quite odd how she tripped."
You have no idea, baby.
We all sit around and talk for few more hours. Elliot is wasted by the end of the night and decides to crash in the guest room. He's more than likely going to be hungover for his trip to Barbados.
He first wanted to stay, but I wouldn't have it. He should enjoy his time and I will keep him updated if anything happens.
Mia was unusually quiet the rest of the night. She was slowly digesting everything. But, when she left she gave me another bear hug telling me she loves me. Also, she was so glad that I found Ana, because she was helping bring out another side of me that has been buried for so long.
After she left, I took Ana to bed to help forget the life around me for a little while. Just me and her, and no one else.
Thursday June 9th 2011
"Sir?" Taylor enters the room while Ana and I are eating dinner.
"What is it Taylor?"
"Johnson, one of the man that we have tailing Mr. Rodriguez followed him into his photo exhibit that opened today. He just reported to me about something he found there."
"I forgot all about his show..." Ana mumbles.
"What did he find?"
"Well, there appears to be eight photos of Miss. Steele. Seven seem to be innocent enough, but one seems to be more… intimate."
"Intimate?" Ana squeaks. "What are you talking about?"
"I think it would be better if I showed you the pictures he sent over."
Taylor pulls out his phone and hands it to me. Ana scoots closer to me and looks over my shoulder.
The first couple of pictures are of her smiling, laughing, scowling.
She looks beautiful.
Then the kicker, number eight; Ana standing in a bath towel, with her back to the camera her hair done up in the bun. You can see her reflection in the mirror and the water droplets on her almost naked form. Also, you can tell it was taken through the crack in the door.
What a fucking perv.
I slam my hand on the table. I want to tear him from limb to limb.
I look over at Ana and I can tell she's fuming as well.
"How... when?" She snaps. "I knew about the other ones. He said he was just having fun. Never once mentioned I would be hanging in some gallery. But, the shower...how could I be so stupid. Thinking that he used to be my friend." She hides her face in her hands, before looking back at me. "You know, I never…" She whispers.
I know she's nervous about what I'm thinking. I'm pissed as hell, but not at her.
"I know." I take her hand and squeeze it. "I want you to get Johnson to buy all the pictures with the negatives. I don't care how much they cost. Then have them taken down today. If they fight it, throw my name around and threaten a lawsuit for not having permission to use those photos. Actually, threaten a lawsuit anyways. Throw paint on them if you have too. Do whatever it takes. Get them down." I demand.
I don't care if he has to steal them or burn the place down. But, in no way are they leaving those walls in someone else's possession unless it's mine.
"Yes, sir. I'll get right on it."
Taylor leaves the room and I turn to Ana who is standing with her fist clenched to her side. She's rationing anger. If I looked closely I would be able to see the steam coming out of her ears.
"I can't believe he would do something like that! What if he has more… I mean I was in the shower. I'm going to kill him."
"You're not going to kill him…"
"You wanna bet?" She sneers. My girl is pissed.
And it's hot.
"No. Because you can't get your hands dirty. We hire someone else to do it." I grin.
She starts to laugh and wraps her arms around my neck. "You're right. I wouldn't want blood all over my clothes." She kisses my cheek.
I pull her to sit in my lap. "You ok?"
"No. I have to tell Kate. Who knows if he took anything of her."
"I doubt it, he seems to be well obsessed with you."
"It's like everyone is going crazy around me." She sighs. "I need to call my dad. That way he can let Jose Sr. know. Although, maybe I shouldn't. He might kill Jose with his bare hands."
And? That's bad because..
"And I don't want my daddy going to jail." She answers my unasked question.
"I'm sorry, baby."
"Oh no, Grey. None of that. This isn't your fault." She runs her hand down my cheek.
"It's taking everything in me not to lose control. I really want to fly down there and punch his lights out."
"We should go." She stands up, eager to bolt out the door to kick some ass.
"What?" I chuckle.
"We should go. Take care of it ourselves." She's pulling on my hand, trying to lift me from my seat.
"Oh, no. I'm not having you anywhere near him. He's unstable. I don't trust him."
She rolls her eyes at me, letting go of my hand. "I think I've been handling myself just fine around unstable people, lately." She huffs, crossing her arms over her chest.
"Ana, let my people take care of this. Please."
"Fine. But, if they can't handle it. I will take matters into my own hands." She sighs deeply and falls back into her seat.
"I really thought he was my friend… I can't believe he would do this to me. God, how many people saw that picture of me?"
"We'll get to the bottom this, I promise."
She stands up again, "I just want to call my dad, then maybe go to bed. I think I've had enough excitement for one week, and it's only Thursday."
I stand up with her and rest my hands on her shoulders. I gently kiss her forehead. "Are you going to be ok?"
"I'll be fine, Christian. I promise." She gives me a tight half smile.
"Alright, I'm going to go work out. If you need me, you know where to find me right?" I'm so wound up, I need to go burn off the excess energy. And I know right now I can't take it out on her body. I need to take it out on a punching bag or something. I'm doing my best not to show her how angry I really am. And if I'm honest, she's helping keeping it in check.
"I do" She gives me a kiss on the cheek and leaves the room.
After an hour of running on the treadmill, and hitting the bag, my lungs are burning. The rage in me has slightly parted.
I make my way back to the penthouse and Taylor meets me in the foyer.
"Sir, Johnson was able to get all the pictures taken down, and he has loaded them into the car and headed back. We have Reynolds taking over watch of Jose now. However, Johnson was unable to get ahold of any the negatives. He was told that they weren't on his person, but also they weren't for sale."
"Fucking bastard. I had a feeling it wouldn't be that easy. At least we have the pictures taken down. When Johnson gets here, have him put them in my office. And make sure they keep an eye on him on all times."
"Yes, sir."
Fuck, now I'm all wound up again.
I need Ana.
I enter the room and notice she's on the phone.
"Hey, dad. I need to go. I'll talk to you later."
After she gives her final good-byes she tosses her phone on the end table.
"You ok?"
"No, I'm not!" I snap. Ana flinches slightly.
Shit.
"Sorry. I'm just pissed that this psycho has these pictures of you. I have no idea what else he could have and what he will do with them. I had one of my guy buy all the pictures and get them taken down. But the negatives he was unwilling to give up." I sigh.
I move to sit down next to her and gather her in my arms. She giggles and pushes me away.
"What?"
"You're all sweaty."
"What? You don't like it when I'm all sweaty." I smile and wiggle my eyebrows.
"I do, but I already had my shower." She pauses and looks at me. "I didn't think he would just give everything up so easily. So, I called my dad. He's pissed. No livid. I don't think I've ever heard my dad cuss so many times in one sentence." She giggles. "He told me that he's going to call Jose Sr. in the morning. I think they're going to make a special trip to see Jose and well, my dad can be very persuasive."
"If not, he's going to be dealing with me next." I grit.
"Hey, what happened to not getting our hands dirty… If plans have changed I think I should get first dibs." She smiles brightly, pushing my hair out of my face.
I take her in my arms and push her down into the bed, giving her a long hard kiss.
"You're all dirty again…. So why don't you join me in the shower…"
She huffs sarcastically, "I guess…"
A/N: So, I have a bonus chapter coming on Tuesday... you know because there's that movie coming out. :) and then also one next Thursday. yay.. right?
