I have tried studying for the last two hours but Grey's gray eye is still haunting me. Damn! I close the book hard and wonder to Kate's room. Uik! Empty… where is this woman? I walk few steps and hear her typing away in her laptop… aha… she is working on her laptop. I bet it is the article. I better get some dinner ready.

'How is it coming?'

'Ahh… good… How did he react to the gay question?' she chuckles.

'I'm lucky for not getting spanked. He looked pretty annoyed Kate. Anyway… why did you include that question?'

I started on dinner… it is going to be stir fry noodles… Thai style…yummy. While preparing the ingredients, I listen to Kate.

'You know… he has not been photographed with any woman at all.. he was quoted at the Most Eligible Bachelor of Seattle and no girlfriend… what do you think I will think?'

'Dumb question… let him be gay… what is it to you?'

Poooshhhh Onions in..garlic in… stir stir stir..

'Hey.. if he is eligible..then I could try!' she pouts…

'Dumb girl!' in goes the vegetables and chicken chunks.

'No… hope…'

'Hope my …asss!' I am still mesmerized by his gray eyes… it is sooooo ummm intimidating… ah.. in goes my Thai Paste. Stir stir stir…

'I need his photographs!' she squeeks beside me. I could just hit her with the hot wok!

'You are on your own…' In goes the noodles… and sauces.

'He is so snobbish… control freak… Better if you use one of the pictures in the internet.' I suggest. I am giving the final stir and ready to dish the noodle.

'Smells heaven… lets dig in…'

'Let me dig it out first from the wok!' This girl never grow up.

After dinner, in my room, I log on to the net and started checking on Christian Grey…. Kate is right… there is no picture of Christian with a woman. He seems to be a private person and I can only conclude that if he not gay… then celibate? Hahaha.


It has been a week. I can't get Anastasia out of my mind…. I have been debating with myself if I should pay her a visit at Portland… but how? How can I make it look natural…and not hoping for her. Being without a sub is difficult now as I don't have a point of release… Kicking Claude and power run definitely not helping… Portland it is.

'Taylor!'

'Sir'

'Portland – we are visiting WSU farming division. Get Andrea to fix an appointment on Monday.'

'Right away sir.'

I walk to my room to pack my bag. I started drafting a plan on how to 'bump' into Anastasia. I hope my plan works! Taylor meets me at the breakfast bar.

'Arranged. Affirmed that meeting on Monday at 11am. When do we expect to return sir?'

'Tuesday? I have not decided.'


'Portland – we are visiting WSU farming division. Get Andrea to fix an appointment on Monday.'

What the hell? I hope my boss is not trying to meet Anastasia. Gail is very upset with Ana that she conducted the interview and did not inform her about it until I told Gail that night. Lucky Ana, that sex maniac did not try anything and now? After a week? Why Portland? If the meeting is on Monday, why the hell are we leaving today? It is only Friday!

'Gail..baby…'

'Yes Jason…'

'We are leaving to Portland now…'

'Why?!' I can hear her shock.

'Visiting WSU.'

'Today?'

'Monday'

'Then…'

I raise my hand… 'I don't know Gail… I am suspecting it is Ana… he has been out of his mind since Ana left after the interview. Has she said anything?'

'She told me on Wednesday that she did the interview and everything is fine.'

'I have verified with Welch and Grey has done a background check on Anastasia… '

'Oh Dear…'

'Don't worry Gail… I will kick Grey's balls if he tries anything… to Ana..'

'I wil…'

'No… I know you want to warn Ana but my suggestion is, no… let me see where this is going.'

'Look out for her Jason…

'Taylorrrr' Christian yells from the foyer.

'I will.. promise. See you love.'

Damn Grey… of all person, my Ana… my big girl Ana? You better watch out man!

We head to Portland and check into Heathman. He is locked in his room and I wonder what the hell he is doing? Invading the poor girl privacy…. Over my dead body!
