Chapter 5
Anna pov.
Finally Monday morning arrives and I wake up to a text from Luke, I sit up in bed and unlock my phone starting to read. The text explains for me to text him back when I'm awake and he'll call me as soon as he can, so I start typing out a reply saying good morning and I missed him over the weekend. A few minutes later my phone starts ringing and I answer it to be greeted by Luke's voice, I smile and greet him back.
"Hi Luke how was your weekend" I ask him.
"It was good Mr Grey gave me the Friday night off when we got there so that was nice" He says.
"Really that sounds nice what did you do with all that free time" I ask.
"Uhm I went down to the bar and had a couple of drinks listen do you want to come over for a bit Mr Grey is having a rest day before going into the office tomorrow so I've got some free time to talk" He says.
"Yeah sure I'll be over soon" I say.
We end the call and seeing as talking for us always becomes more I pack an overnight bag and head over to Escala, after typing the code into the garage and then again into the elevator I step out into the apartment where I'm surprised and flustered to see Christian waiting for me.
"Hello Anastasia I'm to tell you that Sawyer will be out soon he had to jump in for a quick shower" He says.
"Oh okay thank you Christian should I just head through into the staff quarters" I ask.
"I thought you could have a drink with me for a minute keep each other company" He says.
Since he's being so kind and hospitable I don't have the heart to say no, so nodding my head I follow him into the main apartment to the kitchen. He gestures for me to sit down on one of the stools and I do, He disappears for a minute then comes back with a bottle of white wine and grabs two glasses from the cupboard. He puts one in front of me and fills it up then does the same to his own, I take a sip and it's delicious Mr Grey has good taste in wine.
Christian runs his hand along the edges of the table and I shiver, the last time I was in here I gave in to him. I remember the feeling of his tongue inside me and I squirm as I feel my folds getting wet, he smirks at me and I know he's thinking the same.
"Miss Steele I remember the last time we were in this kitchen" He says.
"So do I Mr Grey" I say and bite my lip.
"Now if I remember rightly I had you sitting on this table with my tongue deep inside your folds" he says.
"That sounds right Mr Grey" I say.
"I want to do that again" He says.
I blush and hitching my skirt up I lift myself on the table showing him I want it to, he smirks and slides my panties down my legs and off. He lifts them to his nose and inhales my scent.
"Fuck you're wet already" He moans out.
I watch as he kneels between my wide open legs and taking the bottle of wine he pours some onto my folds, I gasp because it's chilled then I moan as I feel his tongue lapping it up. He keeps pouring and licking wine from my folds making me moan loudly, he puts the wine down and pushes his tongue inside me. I grip on to his hair holding him in place as licks me roughly out, I moan and move my hips as he circles my walls building me up higher. I cum moaning loudly my liquid filling his mouth, I pant and come down from my high as he fixes my skirt and panties back in to place.
"One of these days Miss Steele I am going to bend you over and fuck you into oblivion" He growls in my ear.
"Why not right now" I gasp back.
"Because Sawyer will be through soon to find out if you're here yet" He says.
I feel a pang of guilt and nod my head in agreement, it's just as well because as I slide of the table we hear footsteps coming towards us and Luke appears through the door. I put on a smile to greet him and try to push down the guilt I know we're only friends with benefits but it still feels like I'm betraying him somehow, he pulls me into a hug and I relax into my arms.
"Hi Luke" I say.
"Hi Anna" He says.
He thanks Christian for keeping me company and leads me back into the staff quarters, he stops in the living room and gestures for me to sit down on the couch. I sit down and he sits beside me sighing it's now I notice he looks stressed, like he's carrying the weight of the whole world on his shoulders.
"Luke is everything okay" I ask him.
"Anna I have something to tell you and I don't know how you'll take it" He says.
"It's okay Luke no matter what I'm here for you we're still best friends remember" I say.
"That's actually what I wanted to talk about I think it's time we went back to just being normal best friends without the benefits" He says.
"Oh this is a bit sudden what made you made the decision" I ask shocked.
"It's not as sudden as it seem, the distance this job has given me time to think clearly for the first time in a long time and I realised that although what we do is good to kill the pain and the loneliness it also puts our friendship at a lot of risk and we also shouldn't let our past hold us back, we need to find proper relationships and be normal again" He explains.
"You want to get back on the horse" I say understanding him.
"I think I'm already back on it" He says.
"What do you mean" I ask.
"Well when I went to Portland with Mr Grey at the weekend I signed up to a dating app and I found a match it so happened that she lives in Portland and we met up I think we may have something" He says.
Anxiety races through my body at the thought of being alone but I bite back the tears because I can't drag Luke down with me, so putting on a brave face I smile and hug him.
"I'm really happy for Luke I agree if you're ready to fall in love then you should keep seeing this girl I wish you luck" I say.
"Thank you Ana you have no idea how much that means to me" He says and hugs me back.
Since I brought a bag he shows me to a guest room to put it in and we decide to have a movie night with popcorn, he has to disappear a couple of times to help Christian with some things but he's mostly with me and I must admit it's nice to just sit in each others company and feel the natural friendship bond with him. As it starts to get late I dose on his shoulder and hear him chuckle as he notices, gently holding my head so I don't fall he stands up then lifts me bridal style into his arms. He carries me into the guest room next door to his and lays me down on the bed, he lifts the duvet over me and I fall into a peaceful slip.
I wake up later on that night feeling uncomfortable in my blouse and skirt, I stretch then slip out the bed to grab my bag. I rifle through it and grab the pair of pyjamas I packed, I strip off my day clothes and slip into the pyjamas. Then rubbing my eyes sleepily I walk to the bathroom and relieve my bladder, I go back to the guest room and crawl under the duvet again falling back asleep straight away.
