Authors Note:

So here is chapter 6, early than I thought, but I have gotten so many reviews I felt like I owed it to you all. Just so you all know, no one cheated causing them (AG and CG) to break up. Enjoy and cheers to Crystal9034for editing!

Questions and Answers

Ted's POV:

"The couple days before we were supposed to leave for New York were terrible for us both. We spent it passively avoiding each other, or sitting in awkward silence while we busied ourselves doing other matters. Neither of us was willing to say what we wanted and needed to say. We were both in fear of arguing and pushing each other further away." Mom informed us.

"You wouldn't answer any of my calls, text messages or emails. I tried to talk to you, but you wouldn't respond." Dad said sadly. He didn't accuse mom. He was more regretful than anything.

"I was so mad at you." Mom replies. My parents have started a one-on-one conversation now. It's engaging and sad to watch as they reflect on the demise of their relationship. How do I make them realise that they still love each other? Do I want them to? How do I believe that they probably would want to be together when I felt so much antagonism towards their relationship?

"Mad at me? Because I left that night, when I saw the pregnancy test?" Dad inquires as if he can't recall.

"That and because you went and saw HER that night. You should have been with me. Of all the people, why her?" Mom is disgusted at the memory. Who are they talking about? Did Dad have an affair? I doubt it. I may not know my father well, but I know that he wouldn't do that. Not to mom, he loves her too much.

Dad stands up and runs his hands through his hair, you can feel the anger radiating off him. My grandparents don't look all that well now since they mentioned this mystery woman.

"Ana I have explained this over and over. I didn't mean to see Elena that night, and when I did I ended our friendship and our business connections. I gave you proof of that. I haven't seen her for over 18 years, nor have I spoken to her. I don't even know if she is alive or dead."

"You spoke to Elena?" My grandmother looks repulsed at the thought. "Your wife tells you that she is carrying your child and you go to the woman that…." Grandmother stops as she catches me looking at her. She deliberately holds information back.

"It was a terrible mistake, but it meant that Elena was out of our lives forever. Ana you know this, I have told you over and over. I gave you evidence to prove this fact." Dad sits facing my mother now. She nods a little.

"Who is Elena?" I ask confused now.

"NO ONE!" Both my parents reply in unison. They are both giving me a look. I know that I will never know who she is. Oh well, what is another secret.

"Either way, Elena, wasn't the reason why our relationship ended." My mother tells me earnestly. "Everything got worse the Wednesday night before we were supposed to leave for New York." My dad is hanging his head down. It was as if they were recounting one of the saddest days in their life's and it scared me.

Subject: Preparations for New York.

Ana,

I sincerely pray you do read this email, and you have eaten today. I will pick you up at 6pm from SIP. We can eat dinner and try to talk. I have told Mrs Jones to pack our bags for New York. We will need to leave Escala by 6:00am tomorrow morning.

Miss you.

I have stared at this email for twenty minutes now. I have thought about how to respond, but I don't know what to say. I immerse myself with work, which has been my coping strategy for the past couple days.

Christian and Taylor are prompt and on time as usual. Taylor gives me a polite nod as I enter the car. I honestly feel for him as he has had to suffer Christian these last two days since this ordeal commenced. I know he wouldn't have been easy to work with. Silence again engulfs us. I cross my legs, so I am slanted towards the window, rather than having to look towards Christian. I hear a snarl behind me. I know Christian is displeased.

"Ana," Christian calls me as I watch the lights of Seattle speed past as we drive through the traffic. "Ana, please talk to me, we can't keep this up." Christian has placed his hand on my shoulder. His touch feels so nourishing. I desperately want to throw myself on to his lap and have him wrap his long, strong arms around me.

"It's just too hard. I need space." I tell him. Christian's body language becomes rejected, and he lets go of my shoulder.

Dinner is silent again until we find a topic that lets us think about something besides the situation at hand, but even that is hard.

"Elliot called; they will begin work on our house on Monday. Gia's plans have been finalised according to your specifications, and we have approval. Elliot even thinks we could be in by Christmas, but I think it is doubtful." Christian states.

"Sounds good" I tell Christian. We make eye contact for the first time in so long. We are thinking the same thing. How can we make plans for the future when we can't get past the present? I take a deep breath and ask what I need to know.

"Do you want it?" I ask anxious.

"What?" Christian asks.

"The baby. Or would you rather I got rid of it? Or do you want me to leave you?" I offer.

"Ana, how can you ask such a thing?" Christian is pained. I stand up and run upstairs, afraid of his answer. I can hear Christian chasing me, but I manage to get to the room and lock the door. Christian is banging on the door, but I refuse to let him in.

I pull my Blackberry out and start an email to him.

Subject: West vs. East

Christian,

I am going to stay in Seattle while you go on your business trip to New York. We need space and I don't think I can be alone with you for so long when I don't know how you feel. We both need to think about whatever it is we both want.

I will see you when your return, be it Friday evening or the weekend.

I press send and the tears flow, until I manage to fall asleep.

The morning comes too quickly, it is 6am and I know that Christian will be leaving the penthouse now. I sit up and feel so alone. That is when I notice an envelope by the door; it must have been pushed in from under the door. I open it and find a series of legal documents. A post it is stuck to it. 'Ana, proof that Mrs Robinson is gone forever. It is just you, me and our child.' I look through them he was going to cut all ties to her. He has gifted his part of the salons to her.

Behind the documents is a hand written letter.

Dear Anastasia,

You wouldn't talk to me last night and after your email telling me that you weren't coming to New York, I believe this is the best way I can communicate with you.

The day you literally tumbled into my life, you didn't turn it upside down, you put it right way up. You made me realise that I was missing out on the world. I was living in it but not living it. You made we realise what I really wanted and needed. I felt my heart beat for the first time. I felt loved and even cherished. I have only ever wanted to worship and love you. I wanted to give you the world but protect you from it.

In my selfish desire, I have wanted to be the sole focus of your universe. To me you are mine. I look at you and I know that you should be the centre of the universe. In my eyes the world spins and revels because of you. The sun sets because you are next to me.

On Monday, when I saw what you were hiding from me, the positive test result, I was scared, petrified even. I feared that, I would be downgraded in your life, less loved and less cherished. I stupidly left that night because I didn't want to lose what we had and because I knew I would be a disappointment to you and our child. I feared that I couldn't live up to your expectations as a father. I didn't know if I could be what you wanted.

I am still scared, but this baby is the sum of us both, though I pray it is more like you than me. I hope our child has your passion, capacity to love and magical blue eyes. I still love you Ana, and I hope you love me. How could something that comes from you and so much love, not be perfect. I love you and our baby. I want this baby as much as I want you, and I don't want to live without either of you.

By the time you wake up and read this, I will have left for New York. Please take this time to think as per your request. I will return Friday night, as soon as all my meetings have finished. If you still want me please be waiting for me. If not then I understand and you can have whatever you want. You can have our new house, money whatever. I love you and our little precious baby, regardless of my poor behaviour. I want us to be a family of three. I want to wake up to you both and go to sleep knowing that you both are with me.

I use to think starting my company was the best decision of my life, but marrying you was and now us having our child is the other best decision of my life.

I love you Anastasia Grey and our precious child.

Forever yours,

Christian

It was the most emotion filled thing I had ever read. I looked at my clock at it was 6:10. Christian only left ten minutes ago. I pull my hair into a pony tail and throw some clothes and shoes on. I don't care how I look. I call out for Sawyer.

"Ana what is wrong?" He is on full alert.

"Drive me to the airport. I need to catch Christian before he goes." I say urgently.

Sawyer drives with precision, like were in a F1 formula car race. As we reach the private hanger of the GEH jet, my heart drops as it is empty. I run out the car, but I am too late. I arrive just in time to see the jet take off into the sky. Christian has left not knowing that I wanted to be with him. I consider getting on another plane to meet him, but I realise that I ran out of the house without any ID. I wouldn't be allowed on a plane. Therefore I do the only thing I can do, and get out my blackberry and send him a text.

*Little blip (baby Grey) and I love you and want you.

Please come home soon, we will be waiting for you*

I decide that I shouldn't waste the day wallowing in my self-pity, and should go to work to do something productive. Christian will see the text message when he lands and I can talk to him then.

By 9:30am, however I feel a sharp and horrible pain in my stomach. It hurts so much that I can barely walk. I force myself to the bathroom and find that I am bleeding. NO! NO! NO! Not after Christian just let me know how much he wants this baby. I call Hannah, which causes her to call Sawyer and they both help me into the car, so I can be taken to hospital.

It is 10:30 now and I am lying in bed. Christian should be landing in New York in an hour. I haven't sent him a message to let him know what is happening, but I know that Sawyer would be texting or emailing Taylor so he will be abreast of the situation when they land.

"Good morning, Mrs Grey" Dr Greene smiles lightly at me. "You missed another appointment with me this week." Oh no, Tuesday's appointment... I forgot about it after I took matters into my own hands and too caught up in the negativity of Christian's reaction to little blip.

"I am sorry Dr Greene, life has just been hectic" I apologise

"No matter. Can you tell me what has been happening?" She inquires.

"I did a pregnancy test on Monday and it was positive. Today at work I had cramping and I have started to bleed. A lot." I say sadly. Dr Greene's face says it all and I know that I have miscarried. She does an examination and frowns.

"Ana, I am sorry but you are miscarrying. I want to you to have an ultrasound just to make sure everything has occurred naturally and you don't need a D&C." I nod, not able to talk. Tears again flow down my face. This feels so unfair, and I just want Christian by my side. I close my eyes to drown out the world. I feel someone place their hand on mine.

"Kate?"

"Hey Steele." She says frowning.

"Hi, how did you know I was here?" I ask.

"I went to your work to see you and you weren't there. I quizzed Hannah and she fessed up that you were bought in here. So what is it you're not telling me?" She gives me her tell-tale look and I know I am in for the Kavanagh inquisition.

"I was pregnant, but I lost the baby. Christian is in the air on the way to New York" I tell her, with more tears flooding my eyes.

"Oh Ana. It's okay. How far along were you with your pregnancy?"

"I only found out on Monday. I was very newly pregnant I suspect" I tell her.

"Curious" She says.

"Why?"

"Christian was over on Tuesday morning and he was talking to Elliot about something. He looked very worried. When he left and I asked Elliot he said it was just some marital issue and that you both would get over it." She tells me.

"He was shocked at first, but he wants the child." I reassure her.

"When does he land?" She asks.

"In less than an hour" I tell her checking my watch

"I will have Elliot call him; it will be easier hearing it from a family member rather than security. Unless you want to" Kate offers.

"Please, ask Elliot to do it" I ask.

Kate escorts me to my ultrasound. I can't bear to look at the monitor to see my baby missing from my womb. I hear the doctor state that she can see a bloody mass where the baby was and apologises. I shrug knowing the deal is done.

Then she moves the wand. "There is something else, I think" she says softly.

"What?" I ask curiously

"Just give me a second, Ana" she begs. "Ana, you are still pregnant. You can make out the shape just here" she says pointing to the monitor.

"What? But I just had a miscarriage?" I restate.

"I know. You were pregnant with twins. You lost one of the babies but you still have the other one." She tells me. I am a mix of emotions, over joyed that I still have a little blip growing inside of me but mourning the loss of one of our children.

I am taken back to the Emergency Rooms and admitted for observation. Elliot is waiting for us.

"Hi Ana" He says coming over and hugging me as best as he can since I am lying down. "I have spoken to Christian and he is on his way back. He was devastated at the news. I spoke to him while you were having your ultrasound."

"Thanks Elliot. What did you tell him?"

"That you had a miscarriage. He had just landed in New York and told the pilot to head straight back to Seattle. He will be here in five hours." He tells me.

Dr Greene enters and tells me that I should rest. Kate promises me she will update Elliot on my condition, but they won't tell Christian. So I can tell him.

Christians POV:

We had just landed in New York when I got the call from Elliot. I ordered Stephen to turn back straight away, which he did after we refuelled. I loved the text message Ana sent me, but I despaired knowing that I would be returning home to the loss of our special child. I should have swept Ana up in my arms when I saw that test. Why she puts up with me, I will never know.

The flight home is long and I try to think about what I should say to her. I know she will be devastated and I need to comfort her to let her know it is okay that everything will be fine. As soon as we land I rush with Taylor to North Western Hospital. Ana is asleep when I get there. I kiss her forehead softly.

"Christian. I am sorry..." She starts.

"Hush…" I interrupt her. I don't want her to talk and get upset. I want to reassure her, to know that everything will be fine. "It's okay Ana. Everything is going to be okay. We have our whole lives together. Everything is fine. We can mourn our child together and be together. We can go back to London if you like, or we can go to Japan or Australia, anywhere you want to. Don't worry and we can have children later?" I tell her.

Ana's eyes go dark. "You're not unhappy about losing the baby?" She asks.

"I am but, we can move on from here. We can go back to how we were and have children when we want." I tell her. She continues to look unhappy though I am doing whatever I can to reassure her.

"Christian, I want you to leave." Ana is bitter.

"What?"

"Get out now or I will call hospital security" She spits.

"I don't understand Ana. I wanted this baby, I am sorry…." I try to explain

"Get out now" she screams. I don't want to, but I feel like I have no choice but to leave. I was confused and I didn't know what had happened for months. Ana left me and I couldn't find her. I came from being in the office for a couple of hours, tying up loose ends from leaving New York so quickly. I expected to go back to the hospital to try to talk to Ana, but when I got home, to collect some items for Ana, it was as if my world ended. Ana had already been home. She had left her resignation letter from SIP on the table, with her blackberry, iPad, iMac and car keys. She even left our joint credit card. Everything that linked us together was left in a pile.

Ana's POV:

Carrick and Grace look shocked, but I was more interested in Ted's state of mind. He just learnt that he was once a twin and that his parents broke up because of a series of miscommunications. His life would have been so different if only his parents had managed to communicate better.

"Ted, are you okay?" I ask.

"Mom, I don't know what to say. What else has been kept from me?" he is standing and now is running his hands through his hair, just like his father does. "Dad, when did you learn that mom was still pregnant? You set up that trust fund when I was born? I checked the date of it, it is my birth date? Did Elliot tell you?" Ted was still desperately trying to put all the puzzle pieces together.

"No, Elliot was asked not to tell me. I had no clue. I couldn't find your mother. I tried everything." Christian informs him.

"Mom, if you left your credit card? How did you survive? What did you do for money?" He asks.

"I withdrew a large sum of money your dad once put in my personal bank account, and I hid out in a cabin that your grandfather Ray had owned in Oregon." I told him.

"But I was born in Seattle" Ted states.

"Yes, I returned when I was eight months pregnant. This is the next part of the puzzle. Why no one in the Grey family, except Elliot and Kate, knew who you were." I state. Carrick and Grace become annoyed at this fact and they deserve to be.
