I nod and we rush to the elevator as fast as our legs will allow us to. Once safely inside, he lets Liam down and Liam stands between us and takes both of our hands. He looks up at me. "Will we be a family now?" he asks.
I look down at him and glance up at Christian, silently urging him to answer, because as far as I'm concerned, we most certainly will be, but I need to see where he stands. He glances back at me with a smile. "Yes, buddy."
Liam starts to jump up and down. He stops at a moment and looks up at Christian again. "Forever?"
Christian looks back at him with a smile. "Forever, buddy."
"YAY!" the elevator stops at our floor and Liam runs out ahead of us as soon as the elevator opens.
"I am heading up to the penthouse to get that gift and I will be back down shortly." I smile and nod and lean in and give him a sweet kiss.
"Be safe if she shows up. We will be waiting for you. I love you." I put my hand over my mouth. I didn't mean for that to come out yet. "I'm so-" he cuts me off with a kiss.
"I love you, too, Ana." I smile and kiss him again and get off the elevator. I stare at him with a smile and he smiles back until the elevator doors are completely closed. I sigh happily. This is bliss. My son was right. This IS a happy day. How does he always know these things?
"MOM! Come on!" I hear from my son, snapping me out of my reverie. I look at my excited son.
"I'm sorry, Liam. I'm coming." I walk down the hall to where he is excitedly waiting by the door. I unlock it and we go in and I set my keys down on the table by the door and my son runs off. I go to the kitchen and grab a new bottle of wine that I purchased earlier today. I like my wine, but not too much. I love my tea, but wine helps me to relax and I think we have reason to celebrate tonight.
I get the wine out and set in on the counter and I grab the corkscrew and set it next to the bottle before grabbing a couple of wine glasses before setting them out as well. I decide to just let them sit there until after we put Liam to bed and then we can enjoy some wine before he, HOPEFULLY, takes me to bed. I'm so excited for whatever this night has in store for us.
I get a glass of water and take a drink and set it on the counter as well. I go back to the living room. My son must be in his room. I go to check on him.
When I get to the doorway, I see him sitting at his little desk with a paper and crayons. "What are you doing, baby?" He quickly uses his body to cover the papers on his desk.
"It's a surprise, Mommy. You can't see."
I giggle and smile. "I will be waiting in the living room then."
I go back and sit on the couch and sigh happily whilst waiting for Christian to come back. I hear a somewhat frantic knock on the door and I furrow my brow and I rush to the door and open it and there stands Christian with a huge box and a smile on his face. He looks rushed so I move out of the way so that he and his huge box can come inside.
He brings the box in and sets it to the side as I close the door. I turn around to look at him. "Is everything okay?"
"They were in the garage on their way up so I had to rush and I wanted to quickly get inside in case the elevator happens to open on this floor." I nod and he approaches me and wraps both arms around my waist and he sweeps me up and kisses me sweetly. "Where's Liam?"
I giggle. "He is in his room. I think he is drawing us pictures." He smiles and kisses me sweetly again before sliding me back down his firm body. He takes my hand and guides me to the couch.
"Do you have some wine?" he asks.
I smile. "I do. I set it out a little bit ago, but I wasn't sure if you would want it yet or not. I will go get it." I kiss him sweetly and he smiles as I get up and I go to the kitchen and grab the bottle, corkscrew and the glasses and head back to the couch.
"Oh, you got the real good stuff this time, didn't you?"
I set down the stuff I brought on the coffee table and I sit down next to him. "I felt that we have cause to celebrate tonight, although I certainly had NO idea that this night would end like this."
He smiles and kisses me sweetly. "Me neither, baby. I was so surprised to see you there. I was afraid Liam would call me Daddy. Not because I am ashamed of him, but because we didn't need the news to get out just yet. Although, it kind of ended up coming out anyways. Turns out, I couldn't be happier about that. I've needed to do that for a while. I'm just glad that I finally worked up the nerve."
I grin and wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him hard. "I couldn't be happier either. Thank you!"
"Anything for you and Liam, Ana." He whispers against my lips and I kiss him again. I hear someone clearing their throat and I pull back and sit and look at Liam. He is holding a piece of paper with crayon all over it. He smiles and walks over and hands it to me and I smile. I show it to Christian and he smiles as well. It has what I'm guessing is a house and a tree and 3 little blobs that I'm guessing are us. The little one is between the 2 big ones and He drew a smile on all 3. I feel a tear escape my eye.
"It's beautiful, Liam. You drew this all by yourself?" I know he did, but it doesn't hurt to ask the kid anyways.
"Yes, Mommy. It's our family by our new house with a big yard. It's a happy family."
I smile at him and hand the picture to Christian and wrap my arms around my son and hug him tight as I silently cry tears of happiness. "I love it." I wipe my tears away behind him and pull back from the hug.
He looks at Christian and I look up at him as well and he also has a tear in his eye. "It is quite beautiful, Liam. I love it as well. You did good, buddy. Come here so I can hug you."
Liam pushes past me and wraps his arms around Christian's neck and Christian wraps his arms around him as well and he glances over at me with a truly content smile and winks.
"Thank you for this beautiful picture, Liam. Can I hang it on the fridge?"
"Yes, Mommy. I want everyone that comes here to see it." He says, excitedly. Their hug finally breaks apart and Christian hands me the picture back and I get up and walk to the kitchen with an excited Liam following me. I take off a couple of the refrigerator magnets and I put the picture proudly up on the fridge. "Perfect!" he says. He takes my friend and guides me back to the couch and he sits between me and Christian and loops his arms through both of ours. "So, where's this present you owe me, Mommy?" I giggle at this little boy's lack of patience.
"I've got it." Christian says and he gets up and walks over to the door where he left the big box. Liam kneels up on the couch and watches in the direction of the door, anxiously. Christian comes back around the corner with the box and I watch as Liam's face lights up and he jumps off the couch as Christian comes all the way into the room.
"It's so BIG!"
"We told you that you'd get a big present, buddy." Christian says. "Open it up."
Liam grins at him and quickly rips the top off of the box. "WOWWWW! Baseball, Daddy?" He starts to pull whatever is in the box out and I see that it is a t-ball setup.
"It's called t-ball. It's like baseball for little people. The stick holds up the ball for you while you hit it."
He grins and sets it down and wraps his arms around his Dad's neck and I can tell from Christian's expression, that he is squeezing him tight and I giggle a little.
Once Liam lets go of him, he goes back to the t-ball set. "Thank you, Mommy and Daddy. You're the best! Can we play now?" I giggle again.
"Not now, buddy. We have to play with this outside so maybe we can take you to the park to play with it sometime soon." Liam nods, satisfied with this answer. "Let me help you to put it in your room for now." Liam nods again and tries to pick it up, but Christian helps him and they carry it off to Liam's bedroom.
I wipe the stray tears from my eyes and get up and pick the box up and put it in the laundry room for now. I will break it down later. I come back out of the room and Christian and Liam must still be in the bedroom. I sit back down on the couch and I decide to open the wine so I pick up the bottle and corkscrew. I try to put in the corkscrew, but I am failing miserably whenever Christian comes back into the room alone and he chuckles whenever he sees me struggling.
He approaches me and takes both things from me and he opens the bottle with ease and he hands it back to me and leans down and kisses me sweetly. "I'm running Liam a bath and then we will be back out."
"Okay, baby. I will be waiting." He smiles back at me mischievously.
"You better be." He says playfully and chuckles as he turns and walks away. I playfully smack his fine butt as he walks away. He turns back to me and winks at me with a glimmer in his eyes. Oh, how I love that man.
I pour myself a glass of wine and sit back and sigh with contentment. I've never been so content except whenever I laid in his arms in Aspen after he made love to me.
I drink my wine with a smile on my overly happy face. I have a beautiful family. What else could I possibly ask for right now?
A little while later, Liam comes running into the room in his pajamas, which now consist of the new shirt that his Dad got him. Christian is following shortly behind him with a slightly wet shirt and Liam hugs me and then climbs onto the couch right beside me. He pats the couch on the other side of him and looks up at Christian. "Come sit beside me, Daddy."
Christian smiles and does as Liam asks. Liam really has both of us wrapped around his little finger. "Turn on a movie, Mommy. Ooh! I want to show Daddy 'How to Train Your Dragon'" He looks up at Christian. "You will love it, Daddy."
Christian smiles. "I'm sure I will." I grab the remote and put the movie on.
Before I start it, I look at Liam. "You have to go straight to bed after this movie, Liam. It is already past your bedtime."
He sighs. "Okay, Mommy."
We watch the movie for about 30 minutes before I look over and realize that Liam is snuggled into Christian's side fast asleep. Christian has his eyes closed as well. I smile at my guys. I put my wine glass down and I stand and as I'm trying to pick Liam up, Christian startles awake. He checks out the scene before him. I put my finger up to my lips. "Shh" he nods.
"Let me help you, baby." He whispers back at me and I smile and he gets up and takes Liam gently into his arms and lays his head on his strong shoulder. I follow him as he carries Liam back to his room. Liam starts to stir as we lay him in his bed.
"Tuck me in?"
"Of course, baby." I say. We tuck him in and tell him good night and that we love him, just as we have for the last couple of nights. We turn out the lights and close the door, as usual. I turn to Christian, who is already staring at me with love and lust in his beautiful grey eyes. He puts one hand on the back of my head gently and the other around my waist and he kisses me feverishly. I throw my arms around his neck and eagerly reciprocate. Whenever we pull back just a little so that his lips are only centimeters away from mine, I whisper against his lips, "We should sit in the living room for a little while to make sure that he is going to stay asleep first." He kisses me sweetly and he pulls back and takes my hand with a huge smile on his ridiculously handsome face. He helps me to sit down on the couch and he sits right next to me. He pours more wine into my empty glass and then he pours some into his own. He sets the wine bottle back down.
He hands me mine and he picks up his own. He looks into my eyes and he sweetly brushes a stray strand of hair behind my ear. "To our family and our future. I love you and Liam, Ana, and I cannot wait to see where our lives will lead us together."
I smile back at him with a tear in my eyes. "Cheers, baby." And I kiss him sweetly and we clink our glasses together and we drink on it without taking our eyes off each other. We kiss sweetly again and then we talk a little bit after I turn off the dragon movie. It's a good movie, but I'd rather not watch it without a kid present.
He puts his wine glass down and he takes mine and sets it down as well. He pulls the throw blanket off the back of the couch and stands up, confusing me. "Lay back on the couch, baby." I nod, wondering what this marvelous man has planned. I lay down on my back and put my head on a throw pillow at the end of the couch.
"Like this?"
"That's perfect, baby." He takes off his shirt and I can't help but to stare at this beautiful man. He puts his shirt onto the arm of a chair and he carefully lays beside me, putting his arm behind my neck. He pulls the throw blanket over us and he kisses me sweetly and I put my hand in his hair and run my finger through his beautiful copper locks.
His left hand starts to roam down my body as we are lost in an extremely passionate kiss. Once he gets to the bottom of my skirt, he gently lifts the front up over my panties as he continues to kiss me. He pulls my left leg up over his legs and he slides his hands down into my panties and he growls as he rubs my wet folds. "Mmm.. You're so wet, Miss Steele." He whispers against my lips.
"Only for you, Christian." I whisper back and he smirks and his lips crash back into mine as he parts my folds with his fingers and he begins to rub my already sensitive clit. I gasp and begin to thrash.
"Shh, baby. Hold still and feel it." I smile and nod, remembering him saying that the first time that we were together. My lips crash into his again as he slowly penetrates my core with one finger and then 2 and he gently starts to stroke the front wall of my vagina. His thumb takes over rubbing my clit. "Look into my eyes, baby." I look into his dreamy eyes as he stares into my own and continues his delicious assault on my core. I'm panting heavily, but trying to keep quiet so that Liam doesn't hear.
My body tenses up as I feel my first orgasm of the night quickly approaching. He leans in closer to me. "Let it go, baby. I want to feel you come around my fingers." He whispers. He lifts his head back up and stares into my eyes again and as my orgasm reaches, I feel my eyes trying roll back in my head. "Keep looking at me." He encourages me again and I lock eyes with him once again as my orgasm washes over me. He puts his other hand over my mouth just as I'm about to cry out and I bite it to keep myself quiet. I can feel his obvious erection against my thigh and it just turns me on more.
I release my grip on his hand as my orgasm finally subsides and he takes his hand away from my mouth and shakes it with a grin. "That was so beautiful, Ana. I can't wait to see how many times I can make you come tonight." He whispers.
"Thank you for that, Christian. It was magnificent and I look forward to making you come often as well." He grins back at me and kisses me sweetly as he slowly pulls his fingers out of me and then out of my panties. He puts them up to his lips and smirks just before he puts them into his mouth and sucking on them. I gasp, aroused by that simple action.
He pulls his fingers back out and lays his hand across my stomach above the blanket. "Your come tastes divine, Ana." I blush as he looks into my eyes and kisses me sweetly again. "Don't be embarrassed, Ana. It is a compliment of the highest regards." I smile and lift my lips to his again.
"I love you, Christian Grey."
He smiles. And puts his hand gently on the side of my face and looks into my eyes. "I love you, too, Anastasia Steele." And he kisses me again feverishly. He pulls back. "I think he is going to stay asleep now. Can I take you to bed and love you well now?"
I smile. "Please take me to bed, but I need to straighten up a little first."
"Leave it for the morning, baby. I will help you with it then." I smile he is so amazing. He takes my leg off of him gently and puts it back onto the couch.
I nod and he crawls off the couch and pulls the throw blanket back off of me and I pull down my skirt and he throws it over the back of the couch. He offers me his hand and helps me up. My legs feel like they're made of jelly and I almost stumble. When he sees this, he hurriedly sweeps me up and carries me bridal style back to the bedroom after I show him where it is. He opens the door and carries me inside and he sets me down slowly, to make sure that I don't fall again. "I've got it." I say and he smiles and walks back to the door and closes and locks it.
