"How is your food, Ana?" he asked, while watching her eat.
Christian really loved doing that.
It had become a habit of his, since their first breakfast together in Oregon, wanting to make sure that she was getting a decent amount of food in her
tummy. And later on, when she had to meet the deadline for her art exhibition, she didn't think about eating at all.
However, Christian made sure that she ate on time...
"It's delicious" she answered, while she felt a sudden heat spread towards her cheeks.
She so wanted to clobber herself right now! The reason? It was a habit of him to watch her eat, she knew that. Then why did she feel different about it now?
Ana didn't find it uncomfortable or anything... just that his piercing gaze on her, made her body tingle all over.
"Am I making you uncomfortable, Ana? Should I stop looking at you?"
In response, she shook her head, her gorgeous face, crimson red." No, Christian... I feel uhmm wonderful" Ana replied, and placed her hand on his.
"Really?" he questioned, and interlaced their fingers together, their eyes locked on one another, gray ones meeting blue.
"So, uhmm... how's Daisy? My sweet girl?"
Christian smiled proudly, and said." She's attending puppy school"
At hearing that, she gasped softly." Really? My girlie girl goes to school already?"
He nodded at that." And she's doing very well too"
As her eyes landed on him, Ana felt so overjoyed... Christian has come a long way, if she compared this version of him to the one she met in Oregon.
She had noticed in his demeanor, and the way he acted around other people that therapy has done him good. His interaction with the staff of the restaurant
and the guests made her so proud, knowing how withdrawn he used to be around others, even her.
"Why do you have tears in your eyes, Ana?" he asked, his brows furrowed." Something wrong? How's your father doing? Something happened at work?"
She instantly shook her head in response." No, no... Christian everything is going wonderful in my life"
"Then why does it look like you're about to cry, sweetie?"
Oh my Goddd...
'Did I really use an endearment just now?' Christian thought, and it was then when Ana saw panic in his beautiful eyes.
She smiled, as a tear rolled down her cheek, and then grabbed both his hands." Don't run... please don't"
In response, he let out a deep breath, counted to three and locked his eyes onto hers once more. He was amazed by this gorgeous woman...
How did she know he thought of fleeing just now?
"Ana, I wanna tell you so much," he started, and carefully brought her hand towards his lips." But it is so hard for me to express my thoughts and feelings, using words."
And then he kissed her hand lovingly, his eyes fluttering shut, making her feel loved like never before, her heart imploding inside her chest for him...
"Christian" she uttered, and looked at him pleadingly." You should take your time... no pressure from me. I really don't mind, you know."
As those words reached his ears, Christian gave her a loving look, in his eyes only adoration and admiration for her." You are amazing, Ana"

It was quite late, when Christian and Ana arrived at the Greys Mansion.
"Everyone's already asleep?" she asked, and saw him nod.
"Yes... shhhh" he said, and grabbed her by the hand.
They walked up the stairs, while Ana stared her eyes out.
'What a nice house' was what she thought right then.
Dinner was wonderful, she and Christian spoke about everything at the restaurant.
Like literally EVERYTHING. They talked about him and therapy, Daisy, her father, his siblings and mother, her job and he even hinted at her that he
was considering to go back to work.
They were having a blast together, so much so that they didn't realize how late it was, until the hostess told them that they were about to close the restaurant.
"Oops" he said, and looked around them... They were the only ones left, so they split the bill like usual, and left the establishment.
"I've an idea" Ana told him, when they walked hand in hand in the direction of her car." Bring me to Daisy? I wanna see my precious girlie girl"
And now here they were 'sneaking' into the mansion, because it was 10 past midnight, the others already fast asleep, because it was a workday.
"Your house is magnificent" she said softly, while following Christian.
He corrected her." This is my mother's house... not mine"
She chuckled at that, and felt so at ease right now, her heart swelling gloriously.
Why? Because Christian was doing so well, the progress that his therapist was making with him, showing in all aspects.
"My temporarily room" she heard him say, and then he unlocked the door.
In a flash, Ana walked inside and searched for her precious Daisy.
"Girlie girl!" she exclaimed, when Ana's eyes landed on their puppy, sleeping peacefully on her own comfortable bed." Come here"
At hearing her voice, Daisy immediately woke up and within seconds, she jumped onto Ana.
As he watched two of the most important beings in his life, enjoying each other's presence, Christian felt his heart soar...
"Who's been attending puppy school?" he heard Ana say, making his heart melt into a puddle.
'I don't ever want you to leave my side, Ana' were the words that swirled around in his head right then.
However, Christian wasn't able to say those meaningful words aloud... so Ana could hear them. So, she could know that he loved her with such a passion.
Oh, he wished he could, but it was like his vocal cords refused to cooperate, not being able to say that to her.
'Stubborn vocal cords!'
.
..
After she had given Daisy a lot of loving and pets, their puppy fell asleep on her lap.
"Christian, help me with her please?" Ana requested with a smile on her face.
"Of course" he said, and got up from the bed.
He carefully carried their puppy to her own comfortable bed, and placed her gently on it." Sweet dreams, Daisy" Christian whispered, and then looked back at Ana.
"So," she uttered, and looked around." This is your temporarily bedroom, huh?"
He nodded." Yup, my penthouse is being renovated..." he told her, and smiled." That's why I'm living with my mother... temporarily"
Ana looked impressed." Oooh, a penthouse? Well, that's luxurious," she said, and smiled." Funny though, I cannot picture you owning and living in one"
"Because you're used to me wearing combat boots, black T-shirts and cargo pants?"
Ana nodded at that." Yes" she confessed." Hot though"
He chuckled at hearing her say that." Wh- what?" he uttered, surprised by her blunt confession.
In response, Ana walked over to him, closing the gap between them." I said, you looked really HOT in that NAVY outfit" she said without blinking, while standing so close to him right now." Really, really hot, Christian..."
For a few seconds, his eyes fluttered shut, as he inhaled her delicious, addictive scent.
Was this really happening right now?
"Christian" she whispered, making him open his eyes.
This was what he had been fantasizing for a while now...
Ana oh so close to him, looking at him with such a seductive/ naughty look in her beautiful, magnetic, blue eyes.
"Ana?"
She pouted, and asked. "Are you just gonna stand there... or are you gonna kiss me?"
His heart thumped wildly against his chest, while he gave her a loving look." Kiss you" he answered, and gently cupped her gorgeous face with both hands.
Christian then brushed a stray lock from her gorgeous face, and then crashed his lips onto hers.
FINALLY!
Ana sighed into his mouth, and placed her hands behind his neck, while kissing him with all the passion she had within her.
"Ana" he moaned, and grabbed her head, so he could deepen the kiss...
As their tongues dueled, their hearts beating as one, the silence around them making this moment perfect and oh so special...
She felt on cloud nine, her body set ablaze by his touches, caresses and cute endearments that left his oh so talented mouth.
As he held Ana in his arms, he vowed to himself to NEVER ever let her go again...
These were the words that swirled around in Christian's head, while kissing her with all the love he had inside his heart.
'You are mine, Ana... and I am yours...'
