Hello, everyone! There are a few things I wanted to address. I wanted to say thank you to everyone to have reviewed, followed, and favorited this story! I appreciate it. This is my first Ana/Christian story and to be honest, I wasn't sure if it'd be any good so I was hesitant to post it. But I figured, how will I know unless I try? I appreciate everyone who took the time to leave feedback. I loved reading your thoughts. A few of you were a little bothered by my writing style, but for the most part, you didn't hold it against me. lol. All of you were so kind in your reviews. I have a beta for this story (for now anyways) and she has been great with correcting my errors. Any errors you happen to see otherwise are on me, not her. I have no updating schedule as it all depends on how fast I can write the chapters and for my beta to proof them. I have many stories in progress, but depending on the amount of reviews I receive, it may persuade me to update this story faster. So, I will leave it up to you. Anyways, thank you all for reading and for those to take the time to review. It means a lot! Enjoy the update!

Title: FSOG: From Heartbreak to Happiness?

Summary: Ana and Christian both suffered heartbreak from their last relationship with other people. Christian from his first attempt at one and Ana after getting cheated on. Once they meet, it's obvious there's a spark. But the question is, can they conquer their fears of getting hurt again?

Chapter 2

Kate: "That selfish son of a bitch! I can't believe he had the nerve to cheat on you because you wouldn't sleep with him!"

Anna: (chuckles sarcastically) "Yeah, I thought so, too." (sighs) "I thought he loved me, Kate. I really did. I-I mean, we were together a year but I guess in the end he didn't care for me as much as I thought if he turned to someone else."

Kate: (laughs incredulously) "Wow, for someone who claimed to love you? What an asshole!"

(Kate shakes her head as she slides her hands through her hair in anger. She looks at her best friend in determination)

Kate: "Do you know where he is now?"

Ana: (confused) "Why?"

Kate: (pissed off) "No one hurts my best friend and gets away with it. I'm going to kill him!"

(Ana stops Kate from leaving their apartment by standing in front of her)

Kate: "Ana, what the hell?"

Ana: "Kate, you're not going to Jose."

(Kate looks at Ana likes she's lost her mind)

Kate: "I don't understand, Ana."

(Ana sighs deeply as she closes her eyes, trying to calm down before she speaks. She opens her eyes and looks at Kate)

Ana: "Kate, I love you for wanting to stick up for me. For wanting to defend me, but he's not worth it." (raises her eyebrows) "Believe me, I gave Jose a piece of my mind last night. I have no desire to see him right now. I feel I would lose my temper again."

Kate: (scoffs) "And he would deserve it."

Ana: (chuckles a little) "I know. Trust me, girl, I'm sure the time will come when I unleash my fury on him again, but right now, I need time to calm myself."

(Kate sighs deeply as she understood her friends' feelings. She wanted more than anything to rip Jose to shreds for hurting her best friend, but she knew now was not the time. She made a vow that if she ever saw Jose again nothing would stop her from unleashing her anger on her former friend. She couldn't believe he had the nerve to claim to love Anastasia if he wasn't ready to respect her beliefs. Yes, Kate knew they were dating for a year, but no woman should feel pressured to sleep with a guy just because he was ready, especially if she wasn't. Kate honestly thought Jose had more brains than that, but evidently not. She loved Ana like a sister. Kate looks at her and politely smiles)

Kate: "Don't worry, girl. I'll respect your wishes."

(Ana looked at her friend cautiously)

Ana: "Kate, I love you like a sister. You know that. Please don't do something that will piss me off."

(Kate looked at her friend with an accused face, placing her hands on her hips)

Kate: "How often do I do something that pisses you off?"

(Ana tries to look serious, but it's clear she's having a tough time keeping a straight face)

Ana: "Do you really want me to count or do you have a loss of memory?"

(Kate rolls her eyes as she knew she was caught, but that doesn't stop the two ladies from sharing a laugh and a hug)

Ana: "You are one of a kind, Kate Kavanagh."

Kate: "You know me too well, Anastasia Steele, but you still love me. You know it."

Ana: "You are pretty hard to forget, but I wouldn't trade you for anything."

Kate: (smiles) "Damn straight you wouldn't." (seriously) "Now, when you are ready, I will find you the perfect man. It shouldn't be hard because you're beautiful, talented, sexy as hell, and smart." (shrugs) "Who knows? Maybe you have already met him and you just don't know it."

(That last comment from Kate causes Ana to flashback to the mysterious Christian she met yesterday. A small smile appears when she thinks of him. She had never met him before yesterday and even though he was extremely rude at first, it was like she brought out a soft side to him that he didn't normally have. She didn't know his last name so she wouldn't be able to thank him for making her feel better. Kate sees Ana's light smile and can't help but chuckle)

Kate: "Okay, now you got me curious, Steele." (tilts her head) "That last comment I made before you went into a daze, you know, about maybe you met someone without realizing it."

(Ana tries to fight the blush, but Kate catches her)

Kate: (laughs) "Ah! I'm right! You met someone, didn't you? Who is he? What is his name?"

(Ana chuckles as she raises her hands at her friend)

Ana: "Whoa! Down girl! I didn't say I fell in love with someone or dating him or anything like that. I just meant I bumped into someone yesterday and while he was rude at first, he softened his attitude when he saw I was in pain."

Kate: (raises her eyebrows) "You mean when that jackass stabbed you in the back."

(Kate tilts her head and surprising Ana, she smiles while looking at her friend)

Kate: "What's his name? The rude, but in the end nice stranger who you befriended?"

Ana: "Christian."

Kate: "Christian...?"

(Ana realizes Kate is expecting a last name, so she explains)

Ana: "I don't know his last name. I just met him that once. It wasn't as if I was going to exchange cell phone numbers with him."

Kate: (nods) "Okay, true." (hopeful look) "I could always try to help you find him. You know, so you can talk to him again."

(Ana looks at her friend and can't help but chuckle)

Ana: "Kate, how are we supposed to do that when I not only don't know his last name and just met him once, but that he could have been just visiting this city? It would be like one out of a million that I'll see him again."

Kate: (smiles & shrugs) "Maybe that one out of the million is all you need."

(Ana shakes her head as she rolls her eyes at her friend. She knew Kate would never give up and honestly, she didn't mind that. Ana then gets a thought)

Ana: "Now that we've graduated from college and are looking for internships, I suppose we better get our butts in gear."

Kate: (laughs) "True."

(An idea comes to Kate)

Kate: "Hey, wasn't this Christian Grey person advertising an internship for someone who wants to be an editor someday?"

(Ana looks at her friend weirdly before nodding)

Ana: "Yeah, why?"

Kate: (shrugs) "Well, how about meeting with him, you know, for an interview?"

Ana: "Kate, he owns his own company and is probably very busy. I doubt he has time to interview us."

Kate: "If he has time to set up this whole possible internship, Ana, he has time for interviews."

Ana: (sarcastically) "Well, no shit, smart ass." (sighs) "I just meant he probably already has hundreds of interviews."

Kate: (raises her eyebrows & shrugs) "Then he'll have two more."

Ana: "If he agrees to it."

Kate: (nods confidently) "Oh, he will. He'd be a fool not to hire us, Steele." (smiles) "We're smart, talented, and we would be an asset to his company."

Ana: "Unless he ends up deciding we're not who he wants."

Kate: (sighs & hands on her hips) "Have more confidence in yourself, Anastasia Steele."

Ana: (chuckles) "Yes, ma'am." (shrugs) "Who knows? Maybe we'll get lucky with Christian Grey's internship."

(Ana ends up a million miles away as she thinks about the mysterious Christian. She shook her head in confusion. She didn't know what it was about him, but each time it brought her in a better mood. She highly doubted it would happen, but she was holding on to wishful thinking that maybe, just maybe, she would see Christian again)

(Meanwhile, at Christian's Grey's company building, Christian is at his desk going through his emails when he shakes his head in a huff. Damn it, he thought to himself. He was hiring graduated college students for the internship he set up. He didn't really want to do it, but there was no turning back now as he had his secretary post it a few weeks ago. There have been hundreds already that applied, but he felt they didn't have the spark or fire that was needed for the position. Was he a jerk for it? Probably. A lot of people may call him a selfish asshole, but the way he saw it, if the person wanted the internship badly enough at his company, they would have to work for it. He didn't want any lazy people here. Of course his family, they felt he should be kinder to others, but he knew that's not who he was. He was a smart, rich, and talented business man who worked for what he got in life. His secretary seemed to be a bit intimidated as well, but she never let it show much. His mind wanders to the other day to the mysterious Ana. He sighs deeply as he shakes his head in frustration)

Christian: "What the hell is it about you that I can't escape? You're just some random stranger who I bumped into in the middle of this fucking city." (sighs in confusion) "Why were you so sad? You looked so vulnerable with those puffy red eyes." (clears his throat) "It's probably nothing."

(He attempts to continue his work, only to close his file in frustration. He leans back in his chair, rubbing his chin with a puzzled look)

Christian: "Why do I feel the need to protect you? To keep you safe from the world? More importantly, how does a stranger come to mean something to me?" (shakes his head) "I don't get it."

(His thoughts are dashed when his intercom beeps. He presses 'talk' before speaking)

Christian: "Yes, Courtney?"

Courtney: "Mr. Grey, you have someone on the line."

Christian: (confused) "Who?"

Courtney: "Mrs. Elena Robinson."

(Christian scoffs in response. He wondered what the hell Elena could possibly want after their goodbyes the previous day. He had nothing, absolutely nothing to say to her. He said everything he needed to yesterday. He didn't know what she needed to say to him, and to be honest, really didn't fucking care. He got the hint when Elena told him she was going back to her husband. He couldn't believe it because she made it sound like she wanted to be with him. Or was that another goddamned lie she told him? He didn't feel like picking up the phone to ask her. He presses the 'talk' button and looks at the machine as he speaks)

Christian: "Tell her no. I don't want to speak to her."

Courtney: (hesitant) "Uh, um, she sounds really anxious to talk to you, sir."

(Christian rolls his eyes in fury before angrily speaking to his secretary)

Christian: "I don't fucking care, Courtney. I have no desire to talk to her. She can go to hell for all I care."

Courtney: (swallows hard) "O-kay, Mr. Grey. I'll-I'll tell her you don't wish to speak to her."

Christian: (scoffs lightly) "That's not exactly what I would say, Courtney, You are way too nice. Be rude or be nice about it, I don't care. I just don't want to hear her voice."

Courtney: "Very well, Mr. Grey."

Christian: "Thank you, Courtney."

(He lifts his finger off the 'talk' button before leaning back in his chair. He puts both elbows on each side of his arm chair and then both hands together like he's praying as he thinks out loud)

Christian: "What could you possibly have to say after what happened last night? If you think you are going to have another chance at twisting the knife, you have another thing coming."

(Christian is interrupted by a knock at the door. He sighs loudly before telling the person to come in, revealing Courtney)

Christian: "What do you need, Courtney?"

Courtney: "I thought I would give you more applicants who applied for the internship."

(Christian reaches for the folder that has the applications in it)

Christian: (nods) "Thank you."

Courtney: (smiles & nods) "No problem."

Christian: (clears his throat) "Please clear my schedule for the rest of the day as I have paperwork I need to catch up on."

Courtney: "Very well, Mr. Grey."

(Courtney leaves his office, leaving Christian to wonder out loud)

Christian: (sighs deeply) "What the hell have I gotten myself into with his damn internship?"

Chapter 2 Done

Thank you all who have been kind in the review, follows, and favorites. I hope you are enjoying the story so far. As much as I love the books, I wanted to try my own version of how Christian and Ana met. Should I continue this story? Thank you to those who leave feedback.
