Disclaimer I own nothing 50. An thanks for reading.
The flight home was an emotional one for Ana. She just got her family now she was leaving them in Italy. Christian keep reminding her it would only be two weeks till she saw Mac and Frankie again. Knowing the further along Ana got the more dangerous it was for her to fly so Ana's family came up with a plan so at least two of them would always be in the states to support Ana. They would have loved to all have been there for the whole pregnancy but they still had to run the family business. In two weeks it would start. Two of her family members would come for two weeks, then leave on the day the next two family members showed up. An at 20 weeks they would all be there for a week to find out the Gender of baby grey. The rest of the family that was going home with them were doing there own thing as Ana and Christian where in little world all there own.
To try and distract Ana, Christian decided to talk about there baby. A couple of hours in to the flight they unbuckled and got comfortable on the bed in the on board bedroom. Laying facing each other.
Ana I was thinking about baby names and I wanted to run some by you.
Ana knew just what Christian was trying to do and she loved him for it. He was the most sweetest and most gentlest man she knew.
Ok Christian what do you got.
Well for girls I was thinking Daniella or Grace and for boys Luca or Theo. My Dad would disown us, or more then likely shoot me if we named our baby after him. An I was thinking seeing as they are already two Marco's if you wanted to use it as a middle name.
Those are all great names Christian, but you just reminded me of something I wanted to ask you.
Christian kissed her forehead and said what's that Princess.
You once told me that the first born is the one that ends up taking over as head of the family one day. Right?
Yes that is true Ana.
What if our first born is a daughter will she still be chosen.
Ana looked a little nervous when she asked this. Christian sighed a little. To be honest he never thought about that. In there family it technically did not matter the gender of the first born it was there birth right. His Aunt Daniella was given that chose on her 18th birthday and turned her father down. An let me tell you Gabe was not mad at all.
Ana I would not call it really chosen. It is more of a birthright of the first born child. An no the Grey's Russo's or Lamberts do not consider gender to be a factor. It has not happen in over a hundred years but they once was a women that was head of the Grey family. My Great Grandfather's mother Ginny Ruth Grey ran our family till she died at 86 years old and her son took over. She was the first born. On your Mother's 18th birthday she was given the choice like me to accept our birth right or pass it on to another family member. She turned it down and Gab decided her 2nd born child would one day have the choice to take over for him. An on your brother Frankie's 18th birthday choice to become your Granddads under boss.
So if I'm carrying a girl in 18 years she will have to make a choice to one day be head of the Grey family Christian. I don't know how I feel about that Christian.
Yes Ana but there is a chance she would turn it down like her Grandmother. I don't know if I like the sound of that either but it would be her birthright. An I think it would be wrong if we take it from her. If she did decide I would train her as my father trained me.
Ana felt a little better about that. Then Christian thought maybe this would be a good time discussing when he would be taking over.
Talking about heads of family Ana , there is something we need to discus.
Ana had an idea what Christian was gonna say. Christian had told her once that he would take over as head of the Grey family but did know when. An she was ok with that. Even more so now, knowing about her true family.
Remember a few nights ago when you ladies had the girls night and we had to deal with some business for Mac and Gab.
Yes
Well before we took care of that business we had a little family meeting. Our Dads and your Granddads and our brothers. We were informed that are Great Grandfathers decided that in order to take over the family business you have to be married. The meeting should have taken place a few days after I proposed to you. To inform me that in the year it would take to plan our wedding I would start to take over for my Dad as Jason takes over for me. So that a week after our wedding I would take over fully as head of the family as Jason takes over as my under boss. But we were never given that option because of El.
But wait Christian what does that mean now for you?
Well I was given two options.. One wait the year it takes to plan our Vow renewal or our Dads think I'm prepared to take over in a couple of months. I thought that would not be enough time so I suggested six months and they agreed. They also said before I make that choice I should talk it over with you. Because we are a team and I can't do this with out you Ana.
Christian did not care what option he choice. All he cared was that his Ana was ok with it. Yes he had told Ana once that a day would come when he take over as head of the Grey family. At that time he no clue when it would happen and at times it did not feel possible that he could step into his fathers shoes and do what he as done for so long. But now rather it happen it six months or year this was really happening. Could he really do this was he strong enough to lead his family. His father and god father believes he can. Now what does his wife think. Like always he wished he knew what she was thinking, but like always he had no clue.
Ana please say something?
Christian you told me what our Dads said, how do you feel about taking over for your Dad.
Would you think any less of me if I said I was nervous.
Never Christian Never. Tell me Christian what are you thinking right now.
I have always known that one day I would take over for my father. It has been something I have dreamed of my whole life. An I know I have all the knowledge to lead. But I have doubts that I'm not strong enough to fill my fathers shoes. An I want him to be proud of the man he raised.
Well there is your problem right there Christian.
Christian looked dumb founded at his wife. He had no clue where she was going with this. Ana grabbed his hand and held it tight.
Christian in six months or a year you will not be taken over the family as Carriack Grey. You will be as Christian Grey. You have to make the role of head of the family yours. It unrealistic to try and fill your father's shoes. He will be proud of you Christian he raised you to be your own man not to live in his shadow the rest of your life. You will never trully be happy if you try. Now I don't know much about the family business but I know you and I know you can in six months time. But if you think you need a year then take a year.
Christian just laid they starring at his Ana thinking about what she just said. An Ana did not say a thing because she knew Christian need a few minutes to truly think about what she just said. Then after a little bit Christian pulled her closer and kissed her forehead then spoke.
How did I get so lucky to marry the most beautiful smartest girl in the world Ana.
I don't know but funny thing I keep asking myself how did I get so lucky to marry the most sexiest smartest man in the world.
Ana and Christian had the biggest smiles on their faces. Then Christian spoke again.
You are right Ana I can't live in my fathers shadow for the rest of my life. I have to run the family my way and trust what Dad and Mac taught me. I will take over in six months Ana.
Lets go back to our family Christian. You can tell your Dad and I can discuss our vowel renewal. With your Mom and Kate. They want to start planning right away.
With that the young greys left the bedroom. Christian kissed Ana's forehead and walked over to his Dad and brothers. As Ana sat by Grace and Kate. Some time later Kate an Elliot excused themselves to go lay down in the bedroom. But before they made it half way Christian spoke.
If you two even try and have sex on my bed so help me god Elliot I will shoot you in the ass, you know how much it cost to get that bed cleaned the last time.
Then Grace spoke followed by Carriack.
An if I hear anything I should not be hearing again I will have your father also shoot you son .
An If I have to shoot you , you can be dam sure that you will be needing to recover in the hospital and will miss your wedding boy.
Kate was completely red at that point. An was getting ready to turn around and sit back down. Now Elliot on the other hand was wondering if it was worth the risk of his Mom and his brother following through on there threat. But Elliot did not get a chance to make up his mind because Kate spoke.
Don't you even think about trying it now Elliot, you said he would not care and that it was sound prove. Why the fuck did you lie to me?
Kate didn't wait for an answer. She slapped him in the back of the head. Good thing she was wearing heels. Then walked back to the empty seat next to Ana. Before Elliot could say anything. Christian was laughing till Ana elbowed him in the ribs. Ana whispered in his ear.
Yes it is funny but not in front of Kate ok.
Christian kissed her cheek and whispered in her ear that she was right. It took two hours for Kate to even listen to Elliot. This time they walked to the opposite side of the plane away from the bedroom to talk. Not long after Ana fell asleep in the seat next to her husband. Christian lifted Ana up and carried her to the bedroom. He placed her lovingly on the bed and climbed in next to her and just held her in his arms. An he would have held her till she woke or he fell a sleep. But there was a slit knock on the door and he heard the whispered voice of his father telling him that was an important phone call for him from Luke not five minutes later. ( He went home ja few hours after they took out that family(
Christian carefully got out of bed and left the bedroom. He grabbed the phone from his Dad.
Yes Luke?
Sorry to disturb you Boss.
Its fine Luke what's up?
About 10 minutes ago a young man by the name of Ryan maybe 19 showed up at the front Gates of Belview asking for you.
Did he say what he wanted from me?
No Sir but he did give me an index card to give to you.
What's it say Luke?
It's a URL to a website. But the werid part is, it states that it is for Christian and Mac's eyes only.
Send me the link as soon as we hang up and thanks Luke,
Christian called his father and brothers over to him and he logged in to air web. He logged in to the link Luke sent him. It was a link to a video. They was a man sitting on a chair. A man Christian and his brothers have never seen before, But Carriack sure knew who he was. Just before Christian pushed play Carriack spoke.
Jesus H. Christ the mother fucker is still a live.
This made everyone including Kate and Grace turn and stair at him. He just brushed it off to the girls and said it was nothing they needed to worry about. An they turned back to there card game. Then Christian spoke quietly.
Dad you know who that is?
I sure do son, that is Fuckin Jose.
All the color drained from Christians face and he stared at his father. All shorts of ideas ran through his head. An the biggest most terrifying one was , did fuckin Jose want to harm his Ana. With a shaky hand Christian pushed play. The video was short. But what he heard made him so fuckin mad.
He knows thing, things he should not know. He knows what went on in Venice. Why the fuck does he care about what happened in Venice. He knows what happen to Carla. But what really pisses him off is he claims he knows something about his wedding. An some how he knows Ana and he woke up with out memory of the wedding. How the fuck does he know about that. Did he bug his hotel room, or some how did he bug they cell phones or his families. He needed to call Mac. He grabbed his phone and dialed his Uncle. He talked very quiet so that his Mom and Kate did not hear. They will find out soon enough.
Christian is everything ok?
Not really, I was wrong Fucking Jose is still alive and he wants revenge. For what happen to Carla and what happen in Venice.
Why the fuck does he care about what happen in Venice Christian?
I don't know Mac but there is more. He claims to know things about mine and Ana's wedding. An I think he bugged one of our phones or my hotel room he knows we woke up with no memory of our wedding.
That mother fuckin son of a bitch. If he thinks he gonna try and fuck with my kids he has another fuckin thing coming. I'm calling my Dad we will be on our way. MJ and Frankie can take care things here with Gabe.
Bye Christian
Bye Mac.
