Fifty Shades Abandoned – Chapter Forty-Six


"Morning, Mr. Grey," Ana chimed the moment her husband walked in. She had been up an hour already, had fed and dressed her son and had even gone for a walk when Grace had come in before her shift and all before Christian had turned up. Her previous woes almost a distant memory as she took on this new day with such optimism and excitement.

Christian halted, looking at his wife with a sideward's glance as she sat up, cross legged and their son on the bed in front of her. "Well this is a different sight," He grinned at her. "What happened?"

Looking to Teddy as he lay before her, she smirked picked him up and immediately felt his hand curl around the collar of her robe, she smiled at him, "Your daddy used his initiative, Teddy, and saved me before I got too deep." Looking up to Christian she saw him smiling wildly at her, "And believe it or not, I've been up and about all over this hospital this morning."

"Oh really?" Christian quizzed.

"I'm surprised your mother didn't tell you," Ana commented and then took to cradling her son in his arms as Christian seemed to gain his bearings again. "She came in and got me up and we saw Dr. Greene as well. She'll be by later to come and assess me ready to see if I can go home tomorrow."

"Well that is good news to hear first thing in the morning," Christian smiled happily. "Now, Tedster needs to be put down so we can have a moment." He took his son and as if on cue, Taylor and Sawyer entered the room with handfuls of bags, both saying good morning as they went.

"What is this?" Ana asked as Taylor and Sawyer began to cover the bed in tubs of food, she looked to her husband for the answers.

Christian smiled, "We're going to have a big breakfast." He winked at her and didn't say anything else. He allowed the two men to get the food before sitting down in chairs by Ana's bedside.

"Oh," Ana realised almost excitedly, "We're having breakfast." She then made a circle to all of the men and Christian nodded. "Well isn't this a pleasant surprise?"

Going to her side, Christian gave her a kiss and then placed Teddy in the cot that sat between Sawyer and Ana, and smirked harder at his wife's ever growing shock, "We're shaping this up a bit, Mrs. Grey."

"I actually think having a son has made you go soft," Ana said and shifted ready to see what food they had. Even though she still felt weaker than she wanted to, the walk earlier propelled her towards discharge papers and she was ready to just go home and enjoy food that wasn't wrapped in tin foil and in tubs. "What do we have here then?"

"Everything," All three men commented in unison making Ana giggle.

Ana didn't argue. She was starving and now she had the means to feed her stomach she looked to what Gail had obviously prepared and tucked in, but no more than a few moments in did Teddy begin to fuss.

"Sawyer, can you get him for me?" She asked him for two reasons. One he was closer, and two she wanted the pair to have a bond that would become unbreakable.

"No, I've got him," Christian said ready to get up and rush to his son's side.

"Christian," Ana glowered at her husband making him back down immediately. If Christian thought he was in control all the time again, he was sadly mistaken - again. "Sawyer, would you mind?"

"Erm," Sawyer managed as he looked into the cot at the whimpering baby.

"He just wants to be held," Ana acknowledged the cry that was coming from her son. "I trust you, Luke. Plus he needs to get used to you most out of everyone seeing as you'll be glued to his hip as much as mine."

"I don't know how to," He replied embarrassed knowing that Taylor had a daughter so wasn't knew at his and Christian had been holding his son a lot so was practically a pro at it now too. Sawyer was the inexperienced one out of the four of them.

Ana smiled warmly at him, "Just make sure you support his head with one hand and allow your other hand to support most of his body weight," Ana advised, offering Sawyer the support and acknowledgement of trust. She saw him hesitate once again, "Believe me, once you've got him in your hands you'll know what to do." Shooting her husband a look, she nudged him to add in his two cents.

"Do as she told you and then once you have him, sit and you'll find yourself holding him better," Christian pushed him, giving a slight head nod that he trusted him. After all, Ana was right. He would be around Teddy enough that it was right for him to get familiar with him.

Listening, Sawyer looked at the baby as he lay squirming in one of his many baby blue designer baby gro, his hands covered with mittens, his legs playing in the air. He took Ana's advice and picked the baby up how she said and he had to admit, it was easier than he thought it to be. Taking a seat, he found it quite liberating to be delegated with such a tiny person.

Ana giggled at the sight of Sawyer's uncomfortable stance as he sat with the baby sleeping in his arms. This was a sight to behold. Such a small figure as Teddy entrusted in the arms of such a large and burly man as Luke Sawyer. It was little and large, and Ana was hoping that the love and devotion Sawyer had for her would rub off and he would be the same for Teddy.

"Eat," Christian prodded as he noted his wife had stalled to watch in awe.

"So," Ana said popping a strawberry into her mouth, "Any news on Nurse Lopez?" She asked teasingly. "I mean you aren't really the most obvious gay man are you?" She said and saw Sawyer smirk and she was relieved he was okay with her bringing it up, "You're like a dark horse you are."

"Not that dark," He said as he relaxed back a little, finding being in Christian's presence like this normal especially with his son – One of Christian Grey's most prized possessions – in his arms. Speaking about being gay was in the open between he and Taylor anyway, and he realised that Christian didn't have a problem with having a gay man on his security watch.

Ana poked a piece of melon with her fork thoughtfully and looked to her security detail with a wick grin, "Think of the fun you could have."

"Behave, Mrs. Grey," Christian commented, not looking up from his food.

"What?" Ana asked innocently, "It's breakfast banter, Mr. Grey."

Christian finally looked up knowing he had no comeback worth making to that.

"Did you know that you have so many smiles?" Ana asked as she shifted a little to get comfortable, whilst Teddy already latched on for his next feed, palming her skin with his soft hand as he did.

"I do?" Christian asked as he sat opposite her, his brow crooked questioningly.

"Yeah," Ana smirked as she relaxed back as her son kept up a steady, perfect rhythm, "Fifty, Baby."

Christian laughed at that, "That, Mrs. Grey, was really cheesy."

"But oh so true, Mr. Grey!" Ana exclaimed and laughed, "I gotta say that fatherhood really agrees with you."

"I could say the same about you, Baby, but I must admit, marriage agrees with you too," Christian retorted with a self assured grin.

"Oh wow," Elliot stopped in his steps as soon as he and Kate entered only catching the end of the chat and finding Ana breastfeeding. "Should we be watching this?"

Christian grabbed the towel blanket he had waiting for Teddy to finish his feed, whilst Ana giggled at her brother-in-law's reaction. "It's breast feeding, Elliot, not an out in the wild moment." He said as he covered his wife's chest and his son, giving them privacy.

"But you're so comfortable with it," Elliot exclaimed and looked to his fiancée, "Are you going to do that?"

Kate shrugged, "Let me start telling more than Ana and your brother and then I'll decided post-birth plans, okay?"

"Breast is best," Ana jumped in with a smirk. "I hadn't even really thought about it until he needed feeding and it was the most natural thing ever, but I am with Kate, don't jump ahead of yourself. Your parents don't even know yet so don't even think God knows how many months ahead, Kavanagh!"

"When are you going to share the news?" Christian asked, "Because right now, it's a bargaining tool if I should so need it." He teased his older brother.

"When the time's right," Kate motioned, "We've already bypassed the twelve week superstition."

"You have?" Christian asked in astonishment.

Kate nodded and looked to Elliot with a goofy grin, "Approaching our fourth month. We made a small baby it seems."

"Wow," Ana breathed at that and she wasn't even showing yet! "I'm amazed that our little man's going to have his own cousin only five months older than he is," Ana joked, loving the idea of it already.

"They'll be best friends!" Kate exclaimed excitedly, looking forward to seeing the pair grow up together.

Ana smiled at the thought and looked under the blanket as Teddy began to slow down on his feeding, she could feel he was nearly done. When he did stop, she was happier that without any form of problems, she was able to lift her son away from her chest, move her top up and over her breast and then using the towelling blanket Christian had covered her with was able to rest her son to her shoulder and burp him - All done as though she had been a mother for years and not all of three days.

Rubbing her sons back between pats, she looked up at a bewildered and almost terrified Kate, "What?"

"Is that actually that easy?" She asked, her voice shrunk and minimal.

"Is what easy?" Ana asked confused and looked to her son as Kate pointed. She had to giggle, "I don't know. I just don't think about it, I just do it." She watched Kate begin to look a little panicky at the prospect of being a new mom and being in Ana's shoes, and so Ana thrust life upon her best friend. "Take him," Ana demanded softly, "He'll fall asleep pretty soon."

Looking to the door as a knock came just as Kate took Teddy, they saw Dr. Greene hovered by the door. "Not interrupting am I?" She asked and saw Ana shake her head. "I just need to check your over, if that's okay?" This time Ana nodded, "Do you want some privacy?"

"They can stay," Ana answered immediately, instantly realising that having a baby seemed to eliminate all sorts of inhibitions in her that she might well have had before. She felt rather blasé over this moment.

"I just want you to lay down so I can check your stomach over," Dr. Greene motioned and allowed Ana to uncross her legs and slip down the bed, Christian immediately by her side. Waiting for her to lift the top up, she peeled back the long white gauze to reveal a red and angry looking wound to her abdomen. "Is it uncomfortable at all? Tight maybe?" She asked as she pressed a little, inspecting the incision mark.

Ana couldn't even withhold the hiss of pain she felt as Dr. Greene pushed down on her stomach, "Yeah, and sore as hell."

"It's normal to feel that. Caesareans are quite major surgeries so I don't expect you to be pain free and ready to dance around any time soon, but your recovery is looking good. Especially after seeing how mobile you were without Dr. Trevelyan's assistance earlier."

Ana smiled, proud of herself for pushing her body to work with her and not against her for once, and proving that she was fully capable.

"I think I can confidently say you'll be leaving this building tomorrow, Ana, and you can go home and enjoy family life," Dr. Greene said as she stood jotting down into Ana's chart. "The only time I'll see you back is to remove the stitches to your incision."

"Sounds good to me," Ana muttered as she pushed herself back up, her stomach aggravated from Dr. Greene's observation.

"I know it's going to be difficult, but I will prescribing you lots of rest," Dr. Greene mentioned in accordance to Ana's imminent discharge. "I know a new born will be a handful, but after that little turn in the OR, I need to know you will be given the chance to work your strength up."

"Oh, she'll be resting," Christian cut in sternly. "I'll make sure of it."

Oh, controlling Fifty! Ana put her hand out to his, "How long are you expecting me to rest for? I mean I can't just rest all the time."

"For a week and a bit I expect you to, Ana," Dr. Greene mentioned and gave a stern professional glare, "And I expect you to get additional rest in even when you're feeling better. Just until you get the all clear. Believe me, you rest now, you won't have to later on. You'll get back to full health quicker this way."

"Baby, just listen for once," Christian scolded his wife. "We'll make it work, I promise, but Dr. Greene's right. You need to rest up still."

Huffing a little, Ana gave in, "Fine."

Dr. Greene smirked, "Right, I just need to check Theodore over and then I'm pretty sure the discharge papers will be practically in your hand."

Kissing her nephew, Kate allowed Dr. Greene take Teddy and lay him down gently before looking him over, talking and cooing at the baby as she worked. She looked up at Christian and then to Ana as she finalised her check of the newborn.

"When he's grasping perfectly, and kicking strongly which is always a good sign. All tests done Sunday showed no signs of any sort of abnormality, but we need to do a second when he's two weeks old. We'll give you that information tomorrow, but it's standard procedure as you know."

Ana nodded, knowing about the regular checkups that came with a newborn from the books she had familiarised herself with throughout the pregnancy.

Turning her attention to the baby, Dr. Greene held his feet lightly and smiled, "I would say that you are perfectly fine to go home, Master Grey," Dr. Greene said as she pulled the baby from the top of the bed and held him supportively, "Now who wants him?" She asked seeing as there were four people in the room instead of just the parents.

"I'll take him," Christian stepped in and took his son from Dr. Greene's gasp. He was becoming way to over protective it appeared, but he didn't care as long as his son was safe and cared for.

"Considering all of the turns you had during the pregnancy, none of it seemed to have an impact of Theodore's overall health. He is probably one of the healthiest babies I have delivered this year so far."

"No, I just took the brunt of it," Ana joked lightly, a laughter of ironic mirth escaping from her lips.

"Unfortunately, you did, but you bounced back quicker than mine or Dr. Miller's expectations had assumed," Dr. Greene shared with them calmly. "Right, I will be by tomorrow morning during rounds at ten and I will check you over once more and then I'm pretty certain will be getting you ready to go home," Dr. Greene finally said, readying to leave. "If you need anything don't hesitate to call in a nurse. I know caesareans leave mothers really uncomfortable with the abdominal incision so do not worry about asking for some sort of pain relief. That's what it is there for. You'll be sent home with a prescription anyway, but while you're here let us worry about taking your pain away." She gave Ana and smile before concluding, "Right, I'll see you in morning," Dr. Greene couldn't resist the bright smile that showed off her perfect teeth, "With those discharge forms." She listened to them all thank her and she left them to it.

"Did you hear that, Teddy?" Christian asked his son in a playful tone, "You and Mommy are coming home at long last tomorrow."

Ana couldn't resist a grin, even with the idea of 2am feeds, and crying fits and attention needed moments, life was not looking too bad.

It was looking like a perfect family life in her eyes.

And it seemed her husband agreed.
