Christian's P.O.V

The previous day..

I feel horrible that Ana's going to the doctors for a check up, it's my fault.

That's the only reason I didn't argue with her about being checked over by my mom, because whatever was going wrong with her was
because of me, well my problems from that past..

Leila. I still can't fucking believe that she's out there somewhere close by loose with a gun, possibly.

All I want to do is be at Escala, fucking the life out of Ana.

When I'm with Ana, everything is okay..She makes my world okay.

Her defiance against me is just her showing me that she's perfectly able to take care of herself.

She probably would be fine and not ill if it wasn't for you, Grey!

Damn my fucking subconscious.

He's right though.

If not for meeting me, Ana would still be just a sweet innocent 22 year old happily getting on with her life.

But no, I had to fucking develop these..feelings for her and follow her around like a fucking lap dog until she accepted me to play some
part in her life.

The thing is, I'm glad she didn't accept my original offer..otherwise I would have never even thought about what I was next going to offer her.

I had to though.

As much as it pained me to first admit, I love Ana and she definitely loves me.

She had to be mine forever.

There was only one way of guaranteeing that..Her becoming my wife.

Yes, that's what I was going to do.

After all this shit with Leila has cleared up, I'm going to propose to her..granted that she's still here and hasn't fled from me because of
my fucked up past that keep popping up and fucking everything in my present life.

...

I heard the door open and close and I immediately knew Ana was home from the doctors..let's see what's wrong with her.

I greet her with a smile and she returns it, but something else seems to be bothering her.

After she tells me it was just stress I feel so guilty, yep it's my fault she's been feeling down lately..fucking Leila.

...

I fell asleep with my arms wrapped around Ana and felt her relax as she falls asleep.

I'm woken up by feeling the emptiness of the bed as I realise Ana isn't there.

It's 5am, why the fuck isn't she asleep still?

I panic for a minute when I realise she's not even in the bathroom, but then I hear the very faint sound of talking coming from
downstairs..the kitchen.

I hate to eavesdrop but I need to know what Ana is saying to Gail.

"I know that I'm only staff but if you ever need to talk with someone about anything at all, then you can talk to me in total confidence. I am brilliant at keeping all sorts of secrets."

I'm not entirely sure I'm happy about Gail and Ana being so close, so I step in about to ask Ana if anything's wrong then I heard those
words..

"Gail, I'm pregnant."

I couldn't believe what I just heard..pregnant?!

Gail was looking at me with wide-eyes and then Ana turned to look at me and looked at me the same way.

What the fuck? Fucking pregnant!?

I felt all the anger build up inside me..when was she going to tell me?!

"Christian, please. I.." She started to sob.

I couldn't even think about comforting her..I needed fucking comforting!

She moved closer and reached out for my arm but she could see the anger in my eyes as I glared at her and pushed her away, a bit harder than I intended.

It made her fall backwards on to her derriere as she looked at me with pure fear in her eyes.

I felt so sick to my stomach.

I tried to scream at her and tell her how fucking stupid she was when I just..couldn't get any words out.

My head was spinning with thoughts of Leila, Ana, babies, and that feared look Ana gave me as she looked at me with horror in her
eyes..making me feel like a monster.

I couldn't think straight.

My heart was pounding, so fast..it became so fast that it felt like it was mearly humming instead of pumping oxygen around my body.

I felt my head stricken with pain and my sight went blurry then my knees went weak as I collapsed to the ground, hitting my head on
something as I went down..everything went black and I started to think thoughts of everything changing if Ana kept this baby.

Ana's P.O.V

I was looking up at him, looking into those eyes..they were NOT the eyes of the man I fell in love with.

I cannot believe he just knocked me off my feet.

Those eyes..are filled with anger, rage, emptiness.

He's not in there, it's like some monster has taken over Christian's body and he looks like he's trying to find the right words to scream at
me, but nothing comes out.

His eyes soften slightly and his left hand goes to his chest then his right hand quickly to his head.

His breathing quickens and I suddenly feel quite anxious as to know what the hell is happening!

"Christian? Christian!" I shout at him but it's like he can't hear me at all and then he sinks to the ground, hitting his head on the door
handle really hard as he starts to bleed.

Oh fifty!

My heart is in my mouth as I run over to him with tears spilling from my eyes.

"Gail! Call an ambulance! Then call Grace and tell her!"

I held Christian in my arms and looked at his bleeding head, which made me cry even more.

Taylor and Sawyer must have heard me screaming as they ran to the kitchen to find me holding a bleeding Christian in my arms.

I couldn't speak, just cry.

Gail explained to them what had happened, (leaving out the conversation which occurred moments before,) and they helped carried him to the ambulance which just arrived outside.

I was adamant on holding onto Christian's hand throughout the ambulance ride.

We arrived at the hospital and everything was just a blur really.

Moments after we arrived we were greeted by an anxious-looking Grace, who told me everything was fine and all he needed was a few
stitches.

After Grace has stitched his head, I sat next to his unconscious body gripping onto his hand like my life depended on it.

The Grace came into the room again.

"Ana, honey he's fine. He'll regain conciousness very shortly, that was quite some fall..what happened exactly?"

I let go of Christian's hand and just looked at him, lying there..I was still in shock from what had happened and thinking about how and
WHY it happened, the tears just started to roll down my cheeks and I was taken into an unexpected, warming hug from Grace.

"It's my fault, Grace. It's my fault!" My voice was hoarse and barely audible but she heard and understand what I said.

"Oh Ana dear, what happened?" She looked down at me with questioning eyes and I had to tell her.

She's his mother, after all..

"I..I..He heard me tell Gail something and became really angry and even knocked me down, not on purpose though, and he.."

I started to sob again and received a rub on the back from Grace.

"He just, put a hand to his chest because he was breathing really fast and then his other hand went to his head and, and..he just blacked out Grace, he hit his head on the metal door handle on the way down. It's my fault, it's all my fault."

Grace's P.O.V

As I sat there listening to the story of exactly how my son needed stitches in his head, I realised that something, (apart from the fact
Christian was unconscious,) was seriously wrong with Ana.

"Ana, what's wrong? Why's it your fault?"

She just looked at me with her tear-stained blue eyes and shook her head from side-to-side.

"Ana, what did you say to Gail?"

I'm becoming more and more worried for the poor girl, something has really shaken her.

"I..I can't Grace. I just can't do it..Christian hates me, I know it."

Ana's P.O.V

I'm crying and being held by Grace, like a baby..Baby? I'm going to have my own in about 7 months so I need to wise the fuck up.

I pull away from Grace, wipe away my tears which have now stopped flowing and am about to speak when I hear a groggy voice,

"Wha..Where am I?"

"Christian! You..passed out and hit your head after.."

I could see he was coming back to reality and his expression wasn't what I expected, he looked..lonely and scared?

"After what, Ana?"

He's really confusing me now.

"After you walked in the kitchen and I had just told Gail.."

Realisation hits him.

He looks at me confused.

"Your pregnant?" I hear Grace gasp, shit I forgot she was still here.

"Mom, I need to speak to Ana..alone." Christian gives Grace a serious, 'get-out-now-and-tell-no-one' look and she quickly fleets, giving
me a concerned look as she left.

I could feel the tension between us, it was so thick I could cut it with glass.

I was trying to look anywhere but in his direction, but I gave in and looked in his eyes.

He looked..angry? lost? confused? disappointed?

Well, whatever he was feeling I couldn't really put my finger on it.

I couldn't stand the silence any longer.

"Christian, I'm..sorry."

He looks at me with those blank-expressioned eyes, "How could you be so fucking stupid Ana? I thought you were on birth control? How did this even fucking happen?! I used god-damned condoms every fucking time!"

His voice progressively got louder and his rage became clearer.

I scoffed, how did this happen? I think we both know Christian!

Why was he being so inconsiderate? What an asshole!

"You know what Christian? I get it. Your fucking pissed. Well so am I! It takes two to make a baby, you know! Your such an..inconsiderable twat!"

He looked at me for a second, taken back by my anger.

Then carried on looking pissed off.

"I can't..I can't fucking do this Ana! We've known each other 3 fucking months! I have never even thought about children, christ sake Ana!"

"So? You think I'm ready to be a mom..at 22? Are you fucking kidding me? It's not just you that is affected!"

I have the urge to slap his face until it turns red..Does he not understand that each one of his words hurt?

By now, angry tears were formed in my eyes.

"Ana, I'm not ready to be a father and you're not ready to be a mother, just get r.."

"DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE FINISH THAT SENTENCE CHRISTIAN! I'M NOT GETTING AN ABORTION! I can't believe I have to go through this on my own..this is why I don't tell you things Christi..AH!"

My sentence is cut off by a sharp pain in my left side and I'm aware that Christian is frantically looking at holding onto my side, his eyes
are filled with..concern?

Oh yeah be concerned now Christian, now that you've just admitted you don't me or this child.

"Ana, sit down for christ sake!"

I straighten up as the pain leaves my body and take a deep breath in and out.

"Fuck yourself Christian, I thought maybe you could learn to love but obviously you are still a fucking sadist who enjoys inflicting pain on
brown-haired girls. I hope you're happy with Leila or Mrs. Robinson, whatever. Bye Christian."

I held in the tears as I turned around and walked out, ignoring the calls of my name from Christian.

I'm pulled to one side by Grace.

"Ana, what's going on dear?"

My eyes are filled with tears and I just run, run away from Grace, the hospital, Christian, reality.

I stop running after I begin to get out of breath.

I've been walking for what seems like ages and I decide to see Kate..I just need my bestfriend and sister right now.

I shiver as the wind creeps up my back.

I'm slightly cold, but that's possibly because I'm only wearing a pajama tank top, sweatpants and my pink slippers.

I knock on the apartment door hard and loud a few times and wait for a couple of minutes when a half-asleep Kate opens the door.

"Oh Ana, what are you doing here at 8am? Shouldn't you be in bed with money bags?" She jokes, but one mention of Christian and I'm
uncontrollably sobbing.

"Woah Steele, come in. What's wrong?"

I walk in the door and slump myself on the couch and Kate sits herself next to me, looking me in the eyes.

"I..I think I just left Christian, Kate..He doesn't want me anymore!"

Before Kate could reply,

"That's bullshit, he's always all over you like a rash." A half-covered Elliot creeps from the bedroom, yawning.

"Oh Kate Im sorry, I didn't know you had Elliot over..I'll go."

"Nooo Steele, you will tell me the whole story right now. Elliot doesn't mind me not being in bed, I'm sure he can wait."

"Thanks Kate, I love you."

"I love you too Steele, now spill!"
