I needed more hours before i could accept Christian's job. I was close to finishing my private's pilot's license and i was sure if i buckled down and put in a few hours per day i could finish it and pass the test in time to take Christian on the business trip. He didn't tell me the reason that he needed to go and i didn't ask. I was just the pilot, as long as i could get him to where he needed to go and back i was doing my job. The job was in three weeks. This was a great way to get extra hours towards my commercial license. I hoped that Christian would ask me to do other jobs as well. I could barely contain my excitement. I needed to talk to Justin or Nathan about getting me in for extra hours. I practically pounced on Justin at the door.

"Justin, i've been waiting for you all day" I sighed

"Really! you have my schedule Ana" Justin said comically.

"Yes i know. What i need to know is if you can fit me in for back to back flight instruction" I said.

"Weekends are usually busy but i can do some extra hours on Wednesday and Thursday. What's changed?" Justin asked.

"I need to get my license completed in the next three weeks because i have a job offer" I answered.

"Really! That's fantastic. Who will you be flying for?" Justin asked excitedly.

"Christian Grey!" I announced.

Justin's expression turned from excited to worried almost instantly. He walked towards the desk so that he didn't have to raise his voice.

"Ana. I care about you as a colleague and you know that, which is why i am worried. Why do you think he asked you? He's a very smart, organized rich man. He could hire anyone he wanted but he chose you after seeing you here twice. Is he aware that you haven't finished your PPL yet?" Justin asked

"Yes i was very forthcoming with him. He said that i was a passionate, knowledgeable and caring" I defended.

"Those are qualities that many people have, which don't necessarily make you a great pilot. Remember if you are flying his plane, his life is in your hands. He could hire someone that has 1000+ hours but he wants you instead. This 'job' is in three week? Just enough time for you to finish your license. It just sounds too good to be true" Justin warned.

"I can't believe that you are not happy for me Justin. I have been stressing about getting a job after my license and getting enough hours to go to commercial and this is perfect" I exclaimed.

"Ana, you are gorgeous. Do you not think that is a factor for him? If he was going to hire someone out of the flying club he could have posted something on the bulletin board for upcoming aviation events?" Justin explained.

"He told me yesterday after we went out for dinner" I said

"He took you out for dinner?" Justin cried "He's a charismatic charmer. This is not the first time he has tried this at the club"

"Do you mean Jillian?" I asked

"She's one, Yes" Justin said.

"How many? Do you have a number?" I asked

"Jillian and Alice for sure" Justin said explaining his point.

"So two girls" I asked rolling my eyes.

"That i know of. Ana look around you. Aviation is a male dominated industry right now. He doesn't have alot of girls to choose from at the club" Justin exclaimed "I want you to be careful. Don't put both feet in"

"Can i talk to Alice or Jillian?" I asked.

"Alice is a regular and will be here tomorrow at 2 pm. She's very open and honest, i highly recommend it" Justin agreed.

"I'll be here tomorrow at 2 anyway. Just stop raining on my parade" I said lightening the mood.

"Deal! If i'm wrong about him i will eat my words and buy you some cinnamon buns" Justin promised.

"Deal!" I agreed smiling.

Just then, Justin's next student arrived and he walked over to introduce himself. He waved wot me before leaving the room and going upstairs for briefing. I was left by myself to think about the conversation. Should i be weary of Christian's offer? Was it too good to be true? I was definitely going to go for it but there was a small part in my mind that was scared. Was I jumping into something too quickly. Was Christian just reeling me in for some reason?

Christian

I had been waiting for Ana to get back to me. I was drawn to her for reasons i was not consciously aware of. I could have hired anyone to fly the plane for me but i wanted her to do it, badly. She was the most gorgeous pilot i had ever seen. Her personality and inner beauty made her a perfect 10. No amount of money could put me in the same league as that. She was not aware of this but i had put my private business meeting on hold till she was licensed to take flight. I wanted to be in the same plane with her. She smell was intoxicating and her voice was angelic. Could she be the one woman that could learn to love me for who i am and not for the lifestyle that i could provide. I may be getting ahead of myself but i was a dreamer. I knew that rumors would fly around the flying club office, my only hope was that Ana wouldn't listen. I wanted her to give me a chance to prove everyone wrong.
