Anastasia

"Ana! Wake the fuck up!" I don't even bother to open my eyes, I know it's Kate and by the sound of her voice she's pissed. Ugh, what time is it?

"Ana, seriously... We're going to be late!" She yells as she hits me with the spare pillow on my lower body. I honestly don't want to get out of bed. Why is she even here?

"Ana, I swear... If you don't wake up, I'm going to dump a cup of water on you." She hisses,and I know she's not playing around.

Opening my eyes, I turn my head to the right of my bed and look at the clock.

"What the fuck Kate?! Its 6 a.m. Why the hell are you here so early?" I ask as I turn my body face down on my bed. I refuse to get up. I'm exhausted. The flight to New York took a lot out of me, and for once, I would like to sleep in. I sent Robert a text message, when I arrived home last night, saying not to disturb me for any reason, unless my companies were on fire. Luckily for me, he got the hint, and hasn't called or texted me yet.

"Ana come on, you promised!" I sigh frustrated, even if I want to laugh at the fact I know Kate is giving me her puppy eye look, at the same time heard her stomp her foot.

Fuck it! I sigh once again as I unwrap myself from the comfort from between my blanket and bed, swinging my feet to the side.

"I hope you know I didn't promise you anything." I focus my gaze on Kate who is standing in front of me, as I sit on my bed. "You spoke and before I could even reply to your question, you disconnected the call." I say between my teeth as I stand and make my way to my bathroom, locking the door behind me.

No matter how much she annoys me at times, I know she means well, but sometimes... I shake my head as I begin to wash my hands after using the toilet.

Looking at my reflection through the mirror, I immediately take notice of the dark circles around my eyes. Gosh, do I always look this tired?

I jump when Kate bangs on the restroom door telling me to hurry the fuck up. She acts as if we're going to be late!

"Kate, it's 6:15 in the morning. Where the hell are we going that you feel the need to rush me?" I ask as I hold on to the sink, turning my head towards the door, when she starts to speak again.

"I have scheduled some TLC for us at 7 on the dot." I hear her happy tone and I smile.

"Where?" I asked intrigued.

"Your favorite spot." I can hear her confusion. As if there could be a different place for some TLC for us. I say to myself as I pull open the door and pass by Kate, who's wearing an ear to ear smile, when she notices my hop in my step.

Oh God, this is just what I need. I smile and rummage through my walk in closet for some clothes. Deciding on white mid thigh shorts with a wide light brown belt, a light pink color tank, paired with my light brown gladiator sandals. Turning around I walk out of my closet with my clothes and sandals in hand.

"Why are you smiling like that?" Kate asks as she's sitting on my bed. Shrugging my shoulders I place my clothes on my bed and set my sandals on the floor.

"I've been so exhausted lately. Running around, dealing with incompetent assholes. I'm just looking forward to having some ME time." I emphasize the me as I stand in front of Kate. She smiles at me and begins to laugh.

"Ana, I don't know what it is about you, but you're different. Don't get me wrong," she raises her hands in surrender, while a smile is plastered on her face. I know she knows something is up, but I, myself don't know what it is. "It's great to see you realize things little by little. You work hard, harder than most, but you still need some you time." She ends her comment and stands, walking out of my room to give me privacy to change as she tells me she'll meet me downstairs before she's out the door.

I don't know what or why I suddenly feel different. I feel as if my greatest achievement is yet to be achieved. I can feel my face scrunch up as I'm trying to figure the what and why, as I'm finishing getting ready. Choosing not to wear any makeup and deciding to wear my hair in a high ponytail, I finish slipping on my sandals and walk out my bedroom door, not bothering to make my bed.

"Ready?" Kate asks, shoving her phone back in her pants back pocket, as she hears me coming down the stairs.

"Yeah." I nod, but point to the kitchen. "Do you want to eat something now, or later?"

"We'll just eat later. Come on we're running late." Kate says walking out of the front door. I turn around and grab my over the shoulder bag from the coffee table in the living room. Making sure I have my keys with me, I turn back around and walk out the door locking it shut behind me.

"Ana! Come on..." She yells from the driver's side of her car. "You know how Franco feels about us being late!" She finishes with a dramatic hand gesture to hurry up.

"Fuck Kate, we have thirty minutes." I say as I reach to open the passenger door of her car. "Relax will you?" I laugh as she drives before I manage to close my door all the way.

"Are you kidding me? There are only four massaging chairs available." She takes a quick sideways glance at me and continues, "You know how I feel about getting my mani-pedi, while my ass is sitting in one of those comfy chairs." Stretching her arm out she dials the code and the gates begin to open. Before I can even respond to her statement, I feel my back against the seat, as she has began to drive with speed. I will never understand how her parents allowed her to drive like this. If Ray knew I drove like this he would have a coronary.

No later than twenty minutes, Kate has managed to find parking in front of Franco Salon. Stepping out, I follow Kate in the Salon. Kate being Kate, walks up to the girl with pink hair and begins to tell her of our appointment.

Taking a look around the salon, my eyes land on the magazines that are piled on the center table. Grabbing the first magazine from the pile I begin to flip through the pages.

"Ana, Franco's going to be late." Rolling her eyes, while she mumbles something about professionalism and rudeness, she takes a seat next to me.

"That hairstyle would suit you." She says as she looks at the page I'm looking at. I turn to look at her and then back at the magazine. The woman on the page has brunette hair like me, but her hair is layered and curled at the end. As for my hair, it's straight and long to where it ends two inches below the middle of my back.

"It's too short." I say still looking at her hair that sits just below her shoulders.

"Yeah, because it's curled at the end."

"Kate, I don't know... Maybe just a trim and that's it." I say as my hand automatically begins to play with my ponytail.

"Just think about it. If you prefer it to be longer than hers," she points at the picture."Just tell Franco. You know he would do just about anything for you."

"Yes, I would. And don't you forget it!" Snapping our heads into the direction of Franco's voice, Kate and I both stand to greet him.

"So what can I do for you ladies?" Franco asks with a sway of his hips as he walks ahead of us and gestures us to take a seat in the massaging chairs.

"Well Franco..." Kate turns to me, and I can feel the slight rise of panic. "We need the whole package." She says turning back to look at Franco, who wears an understanding smile.

"Kate.." I begin, but I'm rudely interrupted by her.

"Come on Ana. When was the last time you had a wax?" She asks, while her eyebrows shoot up. I want to tell say NO, but I do need one. Instead of arguing with her, I glare at her, and watch as she smiles and reclines in her chair as Franco begins to order the ten woman who will be working with us today around.

Three hours later, we have our toes, fingers, hair, the wax, and makeup, all done. By the time we step out, I wince a little as my woman parts are still tender. Kate notices and laughs at my expense, but stops and winces soon after.

"Fuck this shit hurts." She whispers as we slowly walk down the sidewalk to a small boutique just three business from Franco's Salon.

"This was your idea, remember?" I want to laugh, but I also know it will cause me to wince.

"Come on, lets get the gel pads and we can stop by a drive thru for a Starbucks." We smile and walk at a snail's pace down to the little boutique for the gel pads.

"So you haven't told me where we're going." I say as I take a sip of my Starbucks, turning my attention to Kate, who looks slightly nervous. I wonder why?

She sighs and turns her sight on me for a second, but turns her attention back to the road. "Elliot's parents are having a gathering today and they invited us." I open my mouth to demand she turn the car around and drop me off at home. "And before you start, Elliot mentioned me who then brought you up, and lets just say his mom is very excited to meet you."

"I don't know Kate. It's going to be awkward. I mean after..." I feel my eyes widen as I realize, that I almost told her what happened between Christian and I. Choosing not to look in Kate's direction, I focus my gaze on the passing neighborhood.

The neighborhood looks well kept, big houses, many kids running around in their front yards. Expensive cars in the driveways, some even have two to three. But as Kate drives further up the road, the houses change. They look a lot bigger, maybe five to six rooms, private gated fences, immaculate lawns and trees trimmed to perfection lining up their driveways. Looks like I'm not in Seattle anymore!

"Ana, I don't know what happened between you and Christian, but I can say this..." I turn to look at Kate, who has a good grip on the steering wheel, "He's a good man. He has a good heart. And hell, he is as passionate as you are when it comes to his company. Don't push him away because of something, he isn't to be blamed for... just keep an open mind." She says as she pulls her car to a stop in front of the gates, that automatically open, and gently drives her car up the Grey's driveway.

Before she even stops her car, we spot Elliot standing on the threshold. As Kate turns off the engine he begins to descend, walking down the five steps. Kate and my eyes bug out when we realize we still have the gel pads in place and begin to laugh uncontrollably.

"What's so funny?" He asks as he opens Kate's door for her.

"Nothing babe." She says sweetly as she gives him a sweet kiss on his lips, when he pulls her out of her car. I smile and step out of her car, just as Elliot and Kate come around the car.

"Damn, I'm a lucky son of a bitch." He smirks and looks between Kate and me. I know I have a look of confusion on my face as does Kate, so he finishes. "I have the two most sexiest woman in Seattle surrounding me, right now." His smile grows, as Kate pokes him in the rib, for making me blush.

"Only in your dreams Elliot." I comment and shake my head, trying to look serious, but instead I smile and begin to laugh as does Kate.

"Oh, come on!" He says as he places a hand over his heart pretending to be wounded. "You just hurt my feelings."

"More like pride." Kate whispers under her breath, but we heard her. I once again laugh, and decide to leave them alone when I hear Elliot growl in her ear, how she'll pay for that later.

As I'm about to knock on the front door, an ecstatic woman is bouncing from foot to foot looking at Kate and then at me, with such joy. I would be alarmed if I didn't recognize her from the photos on the websites who named her Christian's little sister Mia.

Looking at her properly, she can't be older than Kate or younger than me. She's about our age I would say, with jet black hair, beautiful complexion, a supermodel's body. She's dressed in dark blue skinny jeans, black flats and a white short sleeve button down silk shirt.

"Hi! I'm Mia Elliot and Christian's sister!" She nearly screams, but attempts to keep her composure, failing miserably and decides to hug me instead.

I can't help the laugh that comes out of my mouth. "Hi Mia, I'm Ana." I say squeezing her back softly.

"Oh my god. You're even prettier up close. Sorry but once my big brother shared who you where I had to look you up. I know it's kind of creepy, but I was sooo curious to know who you were. I hope you don't mind, but it's not like Elliot or Christian would share with me who you were..." Elliot interrupts her rambling, saying something about showing us where the bathrooms are.

Oh thank you! I silently send my thanks to Kate to asked Elliot. I don't know how much longer I can have the gel pad in place.

"Come on Ana, I'll take you to the one upstairs." Mia says pulling me by the arm. I close my eyes while holding my breath as I walk all fifteen steps to the second floor.

"It's down the hall, to your left, second to last door." She says as she smiles and enters to what I can only guess is her bedroom. Doing as instructed, I begin to make my way.

I can hear the Hallelujah chorus as I gently remove the gel pads from my sensitive area. A moan escapes my lips as slide my silk panties in place and pull my shorts back up. This is what I hate about getting a wax. I hate how sensitive I feel down there.

I brace myself on the edge of the sink as I gently shuffle, but all it does is make my sensitive area react. I gasp and whimper as I feel the after affect. Damn you Kate! I curse her name in my head, she knew this was going to happen, but yet she still had this planned out.

Looking at my reflection, I notice the slight blush forming on my face. I want to splash some water on my face to cool my blush down, but then I remember we had our makeup done as well.

Closing my eyes for a second, I feel a slight breeze hit my legs, causing me to moan softly again. God, can this be any worse?

Taking a deep breath, I get the scent of a wonderful, sexy, and very provocative scent. I moan silently once more, but my eyes open automatically when I feel something hard against my backside. I'm gasping for air as my heart has quicken.

What is he doing here? I ask myself as I see Christian looking back at me through the reflection of the mirror. I can't take my eyes of him. I feel his hands wrap around my waist and pull me closer to him. My head rolls back, tilting to the side giving him full access to my throat. Without taking his gaze from mine, he begins to lick, suck, and bite on my collarbone and I can feel my inner thighs quake.

"Oh god." I moan silently as I feel my self quicken, quickly closing my eyes.

"Ana? Are you still in there?" I'm interrupted by Kate's voice, suddenly panicked we might be caught, I open my eyes again. But this time there is no Christian, it's just me alone, with my hands holding onto the sink.

What the fuck was that? I ask myself startled by my train of thoughts. Shaking my head gently, I begin to walk towards the door unlocking it.

"Ana are you okay?" She ask as she's noticed my flushed face.

"I just felt light headed that's all." I tell her as my hand shoots to the side of temple. "It's probably because I'm exhausted, or maybe because we haven't eaten a proper meal, I'll be fine." I smile towards her, but she wears a guilty expression.

"Oh God Ana, I am so sorry... All we had was the Starbucks, but should've stopped to get you something to eat. I'm so sorry." She speaks and I can tell she's about to cry.

"Don't worry about it." I wave her off and smile again, "Come on I want to meet the Grey's." I tell her as I loop my arm with hers and begin to walk down the hall, down the staircase, and follow the chatter and laughter in the living room.

Even before my feet touch the final third step I feel him, smell him, and desire him. I know he's here. I can feel his warmth. I can feel... Him.
