Chapter 1

"Kate, how does this look?" Kate smiled while shaking her head, "Like you're a teacher from the 70's." Ana rolled her eyes and Kate pulled her to the closet. "How about this?" Kate pulled out a blue blouse that matched her eyes, black slacks that stopped at the ankle, and matching blue flats. "Oh and here these earrings and necklace match great." Ana had nice clothes, because Kate helped her shop when they started college. They both attended the University of Washington.

They had been friends forever. Ana was more of a jeans and T-shirt kind of girl, but Kate said it was time to change. "You'll look totally cute." Ana was smart and double majoring to become an English teacher and eventually a school counselor. She loved reading, but her hard time growing up made her want to help kids. Her mother Carla was damaged as a teenager, when she became pregnant her parents disowned her. Even when Raymond Steele stepped up and said he was the father and married her, which was a lie, they wanted nothing to do with her.

Carla never loved Ray, but he took care of both of them. Ana was a good kid, Ray adored her and Carla hated their relationship. She told her the truth one night at dinner. "Ray isn't even your real father. I don't know why you love him more than me. I'm your blood, not him." She beat her when she was young and the older she became, the more abusive she was to Ana. Clara drank and began doing drugs. Ana found her passed out after coming home from school when she was 14, but she wasn't just passed out, she was dead.

When she died, Ana met her grandparents for the first time. Ray called them and told them how bad it had been for Ana. They felt bad and blamed themselves. So they began spending time with her. Unfortunately by the age of 16 she lost both of them. She always had her dad though. She didn't care if he wasn't her real dad. Her grandparents left her and Ray everything. They even had a trust for her to go to college and have money once she finished.

She went to live with Kate and her family during her senior year after Ray died from a heart attack. Kate was more like her sister than her best friend. "Hey, will you be ok if I spend the night with Elliot?" Ana rolled her eyes, "Please you will be doing me a favor. I won't have to listen to your screaming and moaning." Kate looked at her, "You don't hear us!" Ana laughed, "Elliot! Oh my gosh! You're so big, it's so deep. Fuck me harder!" Kate yelled, "You're gonna get it!" Ana screamed running to her room, but Kate caught her on the bed and tickled her, "Ok Kate! Stop!" Kate smirked, "You need a boyfriend Ana." Ana shook her head, "I'll leave that for you."

Kate met Elliot at their first college party. He was tall, blonde, and had blue eyes. They went out for like 2 months and Elliot was pretty honest with her. He told her he slept with a lot of girls, but he wanted her. Kate was over the moon and she wasn't a virgin either, not like Ana. "Kate, guys don't like me like that. Look at me. I have dark brown hair with bright blue eyes. Nothing about me matches. I don't have what you have. Ana held her small boobs." Kate shook her head, "Oh Ana. You're beautiful, don't let anyone tell you differently. And forget everything your mom told you." Kate knew, because she was who Ana would run to when things got bad at home and Ray couldn't protect her.

Ana made dinner for one and had a quiet night at home. She looked over her paperwork. She was taking a Practicum education class, which she was assigned to an English high school class during a period of the day. She had to observe, make a lesson plan, and even teach a class before she was done. The teacher would fill out her grade. It seemed like an easy A to her. She went to bed.

The next morning she went to campus for classes and then in the afternoon headed to Bellevue High School. She checked into the office, "Anastasia Steele. I'm here to report to Ms. Matteo. I'm her new Practicum student." The secretary was so nice, "Come with me sweetheart, I'll show you the way." They had quite a walk, Ana was thinking she was glad she wore flats instead of those crazy heels Kate always wore. All of a sudden a body hit her hard, knocking her to the ground. "Fuck! I'm sorry!"

This tall built guy helped Ana up and when their eyes met, it was like an explosion. He had wild copper colored hair and didn't look like a high school student. "Christian! One, why are you out of class? Two, why are you running through the halls?" Christian started to explain, "Forget it! I don't want to hear your excuse. You stay with me." Christian was pissed, he had somewhere to be and it wasn't class. "Ms. Matteo, Anastasia Steele is here for you."

Christian heard her name and smiled. He thought she was beautiful. He did have a thing for older women, but she didn't look much older than him. Ms. Matteo smiled, "Welcome, Miss Steele. What are you doing with Christian Grey?" Ana thought he was sexy, not cute. She couldn't believe he was a student. She also thought it was bad, everyone knew him. "You can leave him here, the bell will ring in 5 minutes and he is known to skip my class. Take a seat Christian." Christian sat down, obviously pissed, "Damnit!" Ms. Matteo turned around, "Cursing won't get you out of English class."

Ms. Matteo explained that Ana only had to observe for the next week. "You may want to look over this book to work on your lesson plan." Ana observed all through class and took notes. She also noticed Christian staring at her. He smiled at her several times. She said goodbye and headed to the parking lot. She saw some older blonde yelling at Christian and slap him in the face. She got on the driver's side and he turned around to pick up his bag and saw Ana staring at him. He just waved, smiled, and got into the car.
