sorry for not updating again! I was out of the city and didn't have internet connection :(

Thanks to icalyn for editing! :)

Ana smiled as she walked out of the office the next day because she knew what he must be feeling now that he saw her in her skinny jeans and a see through blouse with a lace and satin bra.

At first she had felt awful knowing she let him kiss her. But then she realized that this was really a good strategy – as long as he wanted her and was about to do anything to get her, she had the attention he should have on work.

So she was thrilled when she received flowers that evening with a card from Christian.

Sorry and still wanting you.

I will be waiting for you in the lobby.

You won't regret it.

Meet me at eight.

Christian

If he was thinking she would go there and consider sleeping with him he was wrong. So wrong. But she could go on the date or whatever he has planned for them and leave him hanging for more.

She decided it was the time to wear that pink dress, combined with gold sandals and a pink purse. She washed her hair and then dried it, making it straight and stylish.

When finally at eight thirty she was ready, she was not surprised to see Christian still waiting for her downstairs.

"I thought you wouldn't come," he said as she walked to him.

"How could I miss the chance to go on a date with the infamous Christian Grey?"

"Does everyone talk about me so much?"

"I don't know, I just read books and don't talk to our colleagues, but sometimes when Kate tells me what's new in the office..."

"I wanted to make up for the date you missed last night. So let's imagine I just saw a beautiful woman and asked her out," he said as he led her outside where a car was waiting.

He opened the door for her and when they both were in, he turned to her. "My name is Christian, may I know yours?"

"Anastasia. But you can call me Ana." She smiled at the cheeky idea of meeting the first time.

"You look wonderful tonight, Ana."

"Thank you, Christian," she said, keeping the smile on her face. Flirting definitely was not bad. And definitely won't hurt.

"Where are we going?" She asked as she watched the scenes change as they were driving. It looked as though they were going out of the city, somewhere in the mountains.

"You'll see. Now, why don't you tell me about yourself?"

"Well, I work in a company that buys and sells other companies. I do the financial stuff, kind of similar to an accountant, but more. Actually the reason I am here is because I need to work on a new company we are planning to sell in a few months."

"Sounds interesting, Ana. We have very similar jobs, I must confess. But better tell me more about yourself."

"Well, I was born in Georgia, and my mom still lives there with my stepdad. My biological father left me and my mom soon after my birth, but thank God that made my mom meet Ray, my dad."

"Where is he from?"

"Oh, he is from Seattle. I decided to live with him after they divorced. I love mom, but I didn't get along with her new husband, so I came here. And you?"

"Adopted into a prefect family. I don't know much about my biological parents, but I don't care because I consider the Grey's as my real family. My mom's a doctor, dad used to work as a police officer. I have an older brother and a younger sister who is the only biological child to my parents. I couldn't love my family more. I have a very good relationship with my brother...and my sister is just adorable and a real diva. They are all amazing."

Christian did not know why he was telling Ana all this stuff. This had to be just a simple date to get her in his bed just to make him no longer want her. But talking with her was so...freeing.

"Sounds lovely. Are they from Seattle?" Ana asked, not sure what made her have such interest in Christian's family.

And throughout the evening she had not only an interest in his family, but also in his favorite music, movies, and books. In his life.

Just as he had in hers.

"Oh, that was tasty," Ana said as she finished her pasta and took a sip of red wine from her glass.

"Yeah, I actually love pasta. And mac and cheese is my favorite food."

"Really?" Ana asked. "I like to cook it, too. Easy and tasty. You should have a bite of my recipe, it tastes amazing!"

"Well, you could invite me sometime when you cook it."

Ana looked at Christian, giving him a cute smile. She didn't know if she was still acting, or the more frightening possibility of it being real. She started to realize that being with him did not have to be annoying and frustrating. He was funny and he had so many interesting stories.

Ana was not the only one confused by their feelings. Christian had never imagined that Ana actually was a cook, or that she has a passion for music including playing the piano, and books are her hobby that she does when she can't do anything else. That she was such an interesting and intelligent woman. And incredibly beautiful to boot.

But everything had to come to an end, and Ana knew it. When Ana had come back from the ladies room, Christian had already paid and was ready to go back to the hotel.

"I had a great time tonight. I didn't know there was a place that you can see the whole city like that..."

"Lucio told me today about this place. I also wouldn't have imagined that view," he said as they drove away from the little village.

Now they were closer together than they were on the way there, and they both had learned so many new things about each other, and that...that Christian wanted to kiss her.

And Ana wanted to be kissed since this date would not lead anywhere further.

"Kiss me." At first she was not aware she had said it out loud, but when his lips came to hers, she knew she had. She didn't regret it because the kiss was amazing. Probably she would regret it when she next saw his face but now it was all about them, their lips, their tongues, and their hands...

Soon the car stopped, and Christian was out again to help Ana get out, like a real gentleman.

"Ana, I had a fantastic time tonight," he said as he lowered his head down to hers and his hands found her waist, bringing her to him. But this time she did not respond.

"Christian, thank you so much. But as I said – I am not going to sleep with you. Not tonight, not in a hundred years time. I would appreciate if we could be at least friends now that I know that you are not a complete idiot. But nothing more."

He sighed. No was no.

"Well, then thank you for the evening. It still was wonderful." Christian smiled and waved her goodbye as she left for her elevator.

He did not believe this was all going to be over so soon. He wouldn't push her, but he knew that she wanted him.

He just had to make her lose control.
