A/N: You are getting the last two chapters today! Yay! Right?
September 15th 2008-
Christian:
"Daddy!" Teddy screams over the skype session waving at me like crazy.
"Hey buddy. Where's mommy?" I ask.
"I'm here." Ana says coming into view. "How was your fight?"
"Long, wishing I didn't have to leave."
I just got in a few hours ago. I've spent the last two months with them, but it's never enough. My family thought I was in Japan this time.
We celebrated Teddy's 2nd birthday in Orlando and took him to Disneyworld and Seaworld. We had to wear some wigs and go by James and Colleen the whole time. It's kind of fun being someone else. Teddy had a total blast and that's all he talks about most days since we got back. I had arranged a lunch with all the Disney Characters. My only problem was if Prince Eric looked at my girl one more time he was going to go flying and I was going to have the Little Mermaid help me.
Teddy's favorites are Mickey Mouse and Goofy. He got lost for almost 20 minutes having a staring contest with Mickey. Somehow Teddy won. Still haven't figured that out. Just to see that kid's face light up was totally worth it. It's no wonder they say it's the happiest place on earth.
He loved going on the rides. I think we rode Splash Mountain and It's a small world at least a million times. All though I never want to hear "It's a small world" ever again. But, guess what song Teddy sang the whole plane ride home?
Ana's now 19. We celebrated her birthday by going to Stone Harbor Beach. I rented a house nearby where we stayed for a week. I wasn't too worried about being in the crowd with people. We had our own private section of beach, but we went to do the activities, you be amazed how a wig and sunglasses change you. I was James again while she was Colleen.
"I wish you didn't have to leave either. This bed is always so empty without you."
"I'm pretty sure you have someone that will keep you company. Right Teddy?"
"Uh-huh. Daddy I watched Superman. He's super cool. I wanna be him for halloween. You gonna be here?" He asks me.
Teddy's vocabulary for two is amazing. I guess it helps that Ana and Gail read to him all day. It's amazing how well you can teach little kids, their brains are like sponges. Even Teddy's pediatrician was amazed how well he could form sentences.
"I'm going to try buddy."
"Mama is going to be Lois Lane.. you be Clark…" He tells me.
"But, Superman is Clark Kent."
"I knows. I still want you to be… mommy says you remind her of him." I look over at Ana who is now blushing.
"Just a little… if you get some big rimmed glasses you could pull it off…" She trails off embarrassed.
It looks like we're going to have to do some fantasy play when I get back.
"If that's what you want to Teddy. I will do that."
"YAY!" He cheers and starts flying around the room.
"You know you're going to have to make it back now. He won't forget that."
"I will be." I tell her.
I hope.
I close the session with Teddy and Ana. I miss them. I have no idea when the next time I'll be able to fly back. I have so many things to get done here in Seattle. If this isn't over by the end of the year, I'm moving GEH to New York. It's been over 2 years, I'm at the point I can't do it anymore. I need them both at my side. I want to marry Ana. Legally.
There's a knock on my study door. It can only be one person so I tell them to enter.
Taylor walks in with a smile on his face. "I think I might have some good news sir."
"Well?" I say eagerly.
"We found the couple that Ray was going to sell your son to. There was a hit last night on a black market website, a couple that had been deceived by an Andrew Martin. They posted his picture on the site. They have a bounty on his head."
"What about Ana? Has she been named or identified by these people? Was it the same people that wrote that stuff on that other site"
"We couldn't find anything that connects to Ana. And according to my buddy they don't seem to be connected. But, not 100% sure. I was thinking maybe we could give an anonymous tip to Ray's whereabouts. I don't want to get us to involved with these people. They're shady, have a huge criminal background and, worse, a scary past with children. From what can be determined from the report, the woman might suffer from Munchausen's. I have another old buddy that could help us." Taylor informs me.
The thought that my son, could possibly have ended up with these people makes my blood run cold.
"Do whatever it takes, Taylor. Pay whatever it takes. I want to bring Ana and Teddy home."
He nods, leaving me alone in my thoughts. Please let this be it.
Two weeks go by, and Taylor's buddy has been in touch with the couple that were going to adopt my child. Finding them was the hard part. We had their names, but it wasn't like they were listed in the yellow pages. E-mail contact was the only way to communicate. So, after much back and forth, they are willing to help us set up Ray Steele.
Taylor brings in the video of their encounter. Taylor's buddy, 'Sam' is in a hotel with these two criminals. As much as they will be setting up Ray's demise, I can't help but hate them too.
"I hear you have been looking for someone that stole from you?"
"Yes, what do you have?" The man asks.
He lays a picture done on the table. "The Subject's real name is Raymond Steele. I can give you his location, but only if you agree to leave the daughter untouched. She had no part in this."
"Yes, we were aware of that when we found her in the basement."
"And you still wanted the baby, knowing she was unwilling?" Taylor's buddy sneers.
They both shrug, uncaring.
"We were promised to a child who I guess would be too old now anyways. So now we want our money back. We've been look for the bastard for years."
"Well, let me show you where he is… Bastard's been staying in Seattle, living it up with the last of your money. I'll also need something else from you."
And with that the video cuts off. I can only guess it's totally illegal stuff, and I shouldn't know about it. Plausible deniability at its finest.
I have no idea what their plans are, but we have an official date of it being done by the end of October. They want revenge from Ray either in re-payment or in death. No matter; I'll leave the dogs to their fleas.
I have a feeling Ray no longer has that money. He's been living fancy for the past two years. Nothing worse than people who want your hide more than they want their money.
October 28th 2008 ( 4 days after where the story began.)
RAY'S POV:
I'm leaving dinner with the Grey's. I've been going over there almost everyday this week. Something is going on with Christian. I have a feeling he might know where Anastasia is though I don't know how in the world they could be connected. He was acting just as funny last week at dinner as well. It was like every time Anastasia's name was mentioned, I would notice a different appearance on his face. He would look at me like he was disgusted every time I said her name. Maybe my mind is just playing tricks on me.
Why would he care? She's been gone for two years!
I got the hell out of dodge the day I noticed her missing. I searched for her around town for a little while, but she was gone without a trace. Leaving with only three hundred dollars taken from my ATM with my missing debit card. Why in the world didn't I change the pin from Carla's birthday?
I had to go into hiding so the people wanting to adopt Ana's baby can't find me. I mean, they have given me a million dollars at that point. They're very shady people and I knew I would end up six feet under if they didn't get what they paid for.
When I returned to Seattle, I was hoping she would be here. Where else would she would have gone? She doesn't know anybody else. Carrick helped me file a missing person report, but the police started getting too nosey to why she was missing. I had to get them off my back. The couple that was adopting Ana's baby might see it since they met her once. I couldn't blow my cover.
I ended up telling them she went with her boyfriend and that she was ok. That I just had issues with the boy and was worried about her. I still let Carrick know that 'I missed her' and was 'worried about her.' I also told him that I hope we could reconnect at some point. I mean she is my baby girl, right?
I snort at the thought. That bitch will pay when I find her. I bet she's on the street somewhere. Serves her right.
I spent most of the million that I got pretty quickly between paying off a 300,000 debt to some loan sharks before they cut off my head and finding a place to live. Once I added the drinking, the strippers and well paying for sex, let's just say I got about 200,000 left to my name. I'll never be able to pay those people back, which is yet another reason for me to hide out.
I decide to go to the bar. I needed a couple drinks. I hate that I'm back in this godforsaken town. I was really hoping to be far away from here by now, perhaps on a tropical island with a bunch of bikini babes. But no, Anastasia just had to get away. I can't believe I forgot to lock the door that day.
I pull up to the bar, it's a little dive bar at the east end of town. I'm walking up to the door when I'm stopped from behind with a hand on my shoulder. Before I could react, I feel the hard metal up against my back.
"It's time to go for a ride, Andrew, or should we call you Ray. You owe us…It's time for you to pay."
I'm stuffed into a back of a trunk; my hands and feet are tied. I have duct tape over my mouth.
I know I'm fucked at this moment. Hopefully, I can sweet talk them out of killing me.
We stop somewhere and I'm left inside the trunk for I don't know how long. Finally, it opens and Hank, as I knew him drags me out of the trunk. The man is a tree and at least 300 pounds of pure muscle.
I'm brought to some old factory and tied down to a chair. Hank comes around me holding a baseball bat and whacks me in both my legs. The pain is excruciating.
"We have already been informed that you don't have our money, Ray." I shake my head trying to talk. I want to tell them I can get their money. Maybe I could ask Carrick for a loan.
He swings the bat again, and I know my knees are surely broken now. I'm trying not to pass out from the pain.
"We're going to take our time with you, Ray." He spits out my name venomously. "My woman will get to put the final touches of putting you into a grave."
Hannah, as I knew her, walks into the room. She has an evil smile on her face and is carrying a large bowie knife.
She walks up to me and as she stabs the knife into my stomach. Before, my world goes black I hear her say.
"That was for Anastasia."
October 30th 2008-
Christian:
Taylor bursts into my office, the biggest grin I've ever seen
"It's done, sir! Ray has met his final reward," he states.
"He's gone?"
"Yes, I just got confirmation from my buddy."
"Thank fuck!" I sigh.
"A couple has also been arrested for his murder, among other things."
Well, that paid off in the end, didn't it? I'm still confused about my feelings, because I shouldn't be happy about his death, which I'm sure wasn't pretty.
"Get the jet ready. We're wheels up ASAP. I'm bringing my family home!" I tell Jason. "But first, I need to make a pit stop at Bellevue."
This works out perfectly because I'll be home in time for Halloween. At least my costume is easy; all I need is a pair of glasses.
I arrive at Bellevue and walk into my childhood home. I find my mom, dad and Elliot in the living room.
"Christian!" My dad greets me with sorrow in his voice. I'm guessing they found out what happened to Ray.
"Dad, Mom. We need to talk."
"Is it really important? Because I don't know if you heard that Ray died. He was murdered. I want to arrange everything since he has no other family…"
"Actually it's about Ray…"
This is going to be harder than I thought.
"I think you're going to want to sit down for this."
"What son? Do you know who what happened?"
I nod and show them to the couch.
"It's a long story… but, I'm going to start at the beginning. You remember Ray's daughter, Anastasia?"
"Yes, of course he's only been looking for her for years." My dad answers. "Are you telling me she had something to do with this? He was always saying she was trouble." He snaps at me.
"She had nothing to do with anything. Ray caused his own death. And I would like it if you don't speak ill of her." I snap back.
"Oh, shit…" I hear Elliot say. I think he quickly caught on.
"Christian... What's going on?" My mom asks
"Ana and I have been in a relationship for three and half years."
"What?" My father roars. "You know where she's been this whole time? And you didn't say anything?"
"Will you just listen… I haven't even started!" I yell at him.
"Carrick, let him tell us. Go on Christian."
"We started dating when she was 15. Yes, I know in your eyes it might be wrong, but she's the love of my life and has been since the moment I met her."
"I don't believe this." My dad mumbles and I can't help but roll my eyes at him.
"That explains a lot…" Elliot says. "I knew something was up. Why didn't you ever tell me?"
"I wanted to a million times, Elliot. But you're not known for keeping secrets. Plus, I couldn't take any chances because of her age and because of Ray. The man was a drunk, and he was very verbally abusive with Ana. I don't know how you could never see, dad. I thought you were a top lawyer and looked for bullshit, but Ray managed to con you."
"You don't know what you're talking about," my dad exclaims, continuing to defend the dead bastard.
"Yes, I do know what I'm talking about. I witnessed it. Did you know he blamed Ana when she was attacked by Jose? Did you know he would spend all her paychecks on booze? Or here's the kicker, kidnapped her and tried to steal our baby?" I yell out.
I think my mom's and Elliot's jaw drop to the floor.
"He wouldn't do that…" he says, trailing off as he can't even trust his own words.
"He took her, but luckily the asshole got drunk one night, leaving the door unlocked so she could escape. For three months, Ray had his beloved daughter locked in a basement, threatening her and our son's life if she ever left. For months, she received no prenatal care, and you know the worst part? He sold our unborn baby to a pair of criminal nutjobs." I sigh. Running my hands through my hair, it feels good to finally get this off my chest.
"He burnt down his own house to get Ana out of the picture with an excuse not to come back. I mean he never filed a missing person's report until you forced the issue. Didn't you think that was funny? Then, suddenly he knew where she was and who she was with? And who just runs away for no fucking reason? You were so far up Ray's ass, dad, I never felt safe enough to tell you about Ana and I. I could never take the chance of Ray doing something to my family. All those business trips were to go be with Ana and Teddy."
"Teddy?" My mom asks, and my dad looks sick.
"Yes, Teddy or Theodore. He's a little over two now." I pull out my phone and show her a picture of him."
"And you sure that child is yours, Christian?" My dad asks.
"Really dad?" Elliot snaps at him. "That's what you have to say? You're trusting Ray over your own son? Again? Because that's the vibe I'm getting right now."
"That's not what I'm saying. You're just a powerful man…"
"Carrick!" my mom snaps at him. She shows the picture on my phone to him and you can see the truth wash over him.
"He's a mini Christian… poor kid." Elliot laughs, trying to lighten up the mood.
"Shut up, Lelliot!" I slightly smile at him.
"I just don't understand… I knew he had a slight drinking problem, but nothing like what you're trying to tell me. Are you behind who murdered him?"
"No. But, I do know who they are. They were the people that were going to adopt Teddy. They gave Ray a nice down payment, yet Ray took off running after Ana did. They're criminals and they came back looking for payment. That's all I'm going to say."
"Why didn't you tell us Christian… We would have..." My mom says trailing off.
"He threatened my family's life. I wasn't risking anything. I was about to tell you when Ray showed up back in Seattle. We didn't have the proof that he took Ana. It was her word against his and she was still a minor. I didn't trust telling you. So, I hid them. I even tried telling the cops what was going on after Ana was taken, but they took Ray's word over mine and I looked like some crazy, obsessed man going after a child. They called them and Ana was recorded saying she was safe. So, that also didn't help matters."
"How did you manage to hide them?" My dad asks.
"Changed her name. Hid Teddy's birth certificate. They're in a small town in New Jersey. And I'm going to be on the next flight out to finally bring them back here. I just wish it didn't take so long."
"I'm sorry, son." My dad says.
"I'm sorry, too. But, please understand what I had to do."
He nods. "He was my friend, we served together. I just thought he was having a tough time with it all. He told me of Anastasia being pregnant and some older guy was brainwashing her. That he was trying to make her life better, by getting her away."
"I know this is a lot to take in. And part of it's my fault for not saying anything. I also in the beginning didn't know how you would handle me being in a relationship with her. After we found out she was pregnant, we were going to tell you… then she was taken with Ray."
"Oh, Christian…" my mother comes and hugs me. "Bring them home Christian." She tells me. "I understand what you had to do. But, now I really want to meet my grandson."
"If you want the proof, dad, Welch can show you everything we found. I know he was your friend and it's kind of out of left field…" I trail off.
"I believe you Christian. But, yes I would like to see it. If anything for my own peace of mind. I just can't believe I was so blind"
"I'll have him bring it around. But right now, I got a flight to catch and I need to spend Halloween with my son. I'll let you know when we are coming back." I stand up and start walking to the door. Elliot follows me.
"I think you did the right thing, bro." He tells me patting me on the back.
"You think?"
"You needed to protect your family. That's what's most important. I would have done the same. You can't risk anything. Me and mom will handle Dad. Now bring back my nephew so he can know who really is the coolest Grey. And your hot little girlfriend as well." He winks and I punch him in the arm, making him laugh more.
"Technically she's my fiancé." I tell him smugly.
"I figured you would put a ring on it. Oh, wait till Mia hears about all this."
I groan. "I can hear it now…" I'm never going to hear the end of it from Mia Grey. "I got to go. I'll see you soon." I tell him.
I walk to the Audi that Taylor is waiting by and get in and dial my phone.
"Hello?" My Angel's voice comes through.
"I'm bringing you home, Angel. It's finally over."
6 Hours later.
I arrive at the New Jersey house a little after midnight. I told Ana I was coming and told her to wait up and I have big plans for her.
When I get to the bedroom and Ana is lying in bed wearing a grey pencil skirt and a white blouse. I slip on my big black rimmed glasses and close the door behind me.
"I've been waiting Mr. Kent." She smirks.
"Well, Miss. Lane I flew over here as fast as I could."
I can't help but grin at how cheesy we are being. I crawl into bed on top of her and kiss her soundly.
Her hands reach in my hair and tug.
"It's over baby. I'm finally taking you and Teddy home. And one of the first things I'm going to do when we get home is marry you." I tell her my lips still pressed against hers.
"It's really over?" She tells me like she still can't believe it. I told her everything that happened earlier. If she was on Skype I would of seen her dance a jig.
"Over." I whisper again.
She pulls my head to her and we get lost in each other.
The next morning I'm awakened by someone poking me in the nose. I only have one guess who it could be. Thankfully after last night/this morning's celebration we made sure we got dressed, knowing Teddy would wake us up if we slept in.
I open up one eye and see Teddy standing in front of me.
"Hey buddy…" I tell him my voice still laced with sleep.
"You came…" He tells me surprised.
"Of course I came buddy. No way I was going to miss you be Superman." I sit up and pull him on my lap. "And I got good news."
"What?"
"I won't have to go away anymore."
"Really? You stay forever and ever?"
"Forever and ever! We're going to be moving to Seattle. And you'll get to meet your grandparents and your aunt and uncle."
I notice Ana wake beside me and sit up next to me.
"I wanna be Superman now…" Teddy says. , ending the conversation all together.
I have to say; I haven't been trick or treating since I was 10. I forgot how much fun it was. This Halloween night. We were finally at peace.
We left Harold back out the house tonight. For once we just wanted to go out as a family, not having to worry about monster jumping out of bushes.
Well, not real ones anyway.
Plus, we had the best disguises. I mean nobody could tell Clark Kent was Superman with his glasses.
I'm watching as Teddy tries to be slick and sneak a piece of candy in his mouth every five houses. I have to stop him so I can check it first.
"He's either going to crash from the sugar high or be jumping off the walls." I tell Ana.
"It's only one day of the year. I'll be hiding the rest when he goes to sleep."
"You mean hiding all the Twix and Kit Kats for yourself."
"Shh…" She tells me smacking my chest.
After over an hour of walking around the neighborhood and we have a haul that could feed a small army we head back home. I have Teddy cradled in my arms, thankfully passed out. Before he crashed he told me…
"I'm so glad you stay forever, daddy."
I think Clark Kent just shed a tear.
November 5th 2008-
Christian:
"Christian, I'm nervous." Ana tells me as me pull up to my parents' driveway. Teddy is in the backseat fast asleep.
We just got in from New Jersey. The house has been packed and will be here sometime in the next couple of days.
"It will be ok. They're going to love you. I mean they already did when you met them the first time."
"That was forever ago. And they didn't know anything about us." She huffs, throwing her head back on the seat.
"Stop worrying. Plus, they're going to be more over the moon about finally meeting their grandson."
We get out of the car and I go to get Teddy out of his car seat. He wakes up as I pick him up.
"Hey, buddy. We're going to go meet my mom and dad. And my brother Elliot and sister Mia."
When Mia found out she took the first flight back out so she could meet her nephew and future sister in law. She was overjoyed, to say the least.
Teddy throws his arms around my shoulders and puts his head into my neck. "I think he's still tired."
"Well, we did keep him up late. Then the early flight." Ana says rubbing his back.
Gail and Harold also returned with us. They are busy settling into Escala. My next move is to find us a house. But, it's something I really want to do with Ana. We started looking at property along the Sound.
We walk up to the house and I walk right in. I know they're all waiting for us.
"They're here!" I hear Mia's voice ring through the foyer. Mia comes running in the room. Teddy moves his head to the direction of Mia's voice and when he sees her he hides back in my shoulder.
"Mia, relax." I tell her. "He's still very tired and doesn't know you. Don't scare him away just yet." I tell her smiling. My dad, mom and Elliot join us.
"Sorry. I'm just so excited. Ana it's good to see you again." She tells her and gives her a hug.
"You too Mia."
"Damn, C. No wonder you didn't want to show me more pictures of her. You got yourself one hot lookin' mama." He pats my shoulder. I know he's just trying to rile me up... "It's good to see you again Ana. Even though it's been forever." He gives her a hug.
"Hi, Elliot."
My dad is standing back as my mom goes and hugs Ana. "I'm so glad you are able to be here," my mom tells her. "And that you're safe."
"Thank you, Grace." She smiles standing back. "Teddy, do you want to say hi to everyone?" Ana asks him rubbing his back. Teddy puts his head up and looks around the room.
"Hi!" He quickly says before hiding again.
"Why don't we go to the living room and sit down. I got some toys for Teddy if he wants to play with them." My mom says.
Teddy's head leaves my shoulder quickly at the word "toys" and a huge smile graces his face.
We walk into the living room and it looks like my mom bought all of Toys 'r Us.
Teddy wiggles himself down from my arms to get down and starts to move his way through all the toys.
"What do you say, Teddy?" Ana asks him as he picks up the mega blocks.
"Thank you…" He smiles and gives my mom a hug.
"You're welcome sweet boy. I can't get over how much he looks like you Christian."
"His ego is big enough mom without you inflating it even more." Elliot laughs and Ana is right there with him.
"Teddy, this is your grandma." I bend down to tell him, before he gets distracted by the toys again.
"Hi, grandma." I look up at my dad and he's still sitting as far as away as he can from us.
"And over there is your grandpa." I tell Teddy pointing over to my dad.
Teddy looks up at me confused. "I think he needs a hug." I whisper in his ear.
Teddy walks determined to my dad and gives him a hug. My dad gladly expects and I see him cheer up a little.
Everyone is on the floor playing with Teddy as they try to build the tallest tower they can out of the hundreds of blocks that our scattered on the floor.
Nobody has brought up the past and right now only looking ahead.
Ana is curled up on my lap on the couch. Elliot is now trying to play the part of Godzilla and Teddy tries jumping on his back to stop him.
I look up and my dad is now standing in front of us.
"Do you think I can talk to you both in private for a minute?"
"Sure." I agree picking Ana off my lap. We follow my dad into his office.
"I want to start off my apologizing to you both. I feel incredibly guilty for not seeing through Ray's charade. We were buddies when we were served in the Marines. He saved my ass on an overseas mission. I would have been left for dead if it wasn't for Ray pulling me to safety and getting me help. Without him, I might not have been here today. I felt like I owed him everything. We lost touch, right before he got married to your mother, Ana. It wasn't until that issue with Jose that I saw him again. I could kick myself for not seeing through him. Maybe, if I did you wouldn't have had to hide not only from that bastard but from us. I can understand your concern that if you were to tell me it could've led me to say something to Ray, and put your family at risk. It's still a shock, but I couldn't be more proud of you Christian for doing what it takes to protect them. Ana, I hope that one day you can forgive me."
"It's in the past, Mr. Grey. We can only move on from here." Ana tells him, standing up to give him a hug.
"Call me Carrick, dear. Now I know you two have been engaged for awhile. What can we do to help you two kids get married?"
"Could we have the wedding here?"
We talk for a little bit longer. I feel as if the air had been cleared and we can all just finally move on from what happened over the last couple of years.
I walk Ana out of the office. And with perfect timing the doorbell rings.
"I have a little surprise for you." I tell her, and she looks at me questionably.
We walk over to the front door and are greeted by a bouncing blonde.
"KATE!" Ana screams and runs up to her friend.
"Ana!" They hug and bounce up and down.
"It's so good to see you Ana. I've missed you so much." Kate says starting to tear up. "'James' over there told me some of what happened. I'm so glad you are ok."
"I've missed you too Kate. You look good. What are you doing these days?"
"I'm attending WSU. Studying journalism."
"Of course." Ana giggles.
"So what is this I hear of you having a little boy?"
"His name is Teddy. Come on everyone is in the living room." Ana says as they both walk over.
Ana stops in front of me and kisses my cheek.
"Thank you for bring Kate here, for everything." She wraps her arms around me and I wrap mine around her midsection. "I love you so much Christian. Thank you, for everything."
"I love you too, Angel. I'm so glad I have you back. We will never be apart again."
December 19th 2008.
Seattle Nooz:
You heard it here first… It seems like 26-year-old billionaire Christian Grey is tying the knot. That's right ladies, it was confirmed yesterday that Christian Grey has been in a long term relationship with 19 year old Anastasia Steele.
They also have a 2 and half year-old son, whose name was not given.
For a matter of her own safety it seems like Anastasia and their son, had to go into hiding. The only thing that has been confirmed it had to do with an abusive parent and a possible kidnapping was involved.
If you have done the math it seems like Anastasia was just sweet 16 at the time she got pregnant with the couple's son.
Hmm… we can only guess that Christian Grey likes them young. However, a statement that came from GEH Mr. Grey is quoted saying "that age is only a number and it's love that really matters. When you find your soulmate, nothing else matters. Anastasia is the love of my life."
Can we say Swoon?
And we all thought he was some bad boy tyrant. And from the pictures of the couple that have surfaced over the last month we can definitely see the love between them.
We can only wish the couple congratulations and are now on wedding watch.
Seattle Times: December 23rd 2008
It has now been confirmed that Christian Grey and long-term girlfriend Anastasia Steele have officially been tied the knot. The couple married at Christian Grey's childhood home in Bellevue, last night. It's been reported that they were surrounded by only close family and friends. Below is the press release of their wedding picture.
