If he thought that she would run to his room right after he left, then he was wrong.

She swam for twenty more minutes before she returned to her room and took a shower. Then she picked out a pink underwear set.

She dried her hair, letting it fall over her shoulders. She applied mascara and eyeliner, and then she went to her bag for the shoes. The pink high heeled shoes even the new Ana thought she would never wear.

She looked in the mirror, and for the first time in her life she felt confident. For the first time, she was aware of the fact that she was beautiful and sexy. She put on the white hotel robe, and then she walked out of her room.

Since it was late, she hoped the hotel halls would be empty of tourists, with them in bed to get some sleep to see the city tomorrow.

Even if she hopefully won't get much sleep tonight.

Christian's room was only ten rooms away so she did not have far to go to get to his room. She considered going back to her room, but then she pushed away the thought by knocking on the door.

"Room service!"

He opened the door with his sexy smirk and stared at her.

"I don't remember ordering anything."

"Well, I must have the wrong room, then..." Ana sighed, but then he stopped her from walking away by grabbing her by her waist and kissing her.

"You came." He said as they broke the kiss and he closed the door.

"Not yet." She said, smirking as she untied the sash of the robe.

"But soon." He replied with a similar facial expression." May I take your coat?"

"My coat." Ana laughed. "But yes, I think it is kinda hot in here." Ana said, as she let Christian take the robe off of her body.

And only then did Christian have a full view of her. He didn't know what was going to happen but she was... he would punch in the face all the guys from work who thought she was ugly and unattractive. She was something...

"Well, the night's short, so don't waste your time, Grey."

"Just a night?"

"Just a night." Ana nodded. This would be just a one-night stand.

"Well, then how about we make the most of it, Steele."

Christian made his way to her and kissed her hard, this time with his hands on her butt. She jumped on him just the way she had done the previous evening, but this time... This time he pushed her against the door as they made out.

He ran one of his hands up and down her back while she managed to unbuckle his pants and let them fall on the ground. She explored his chest as she ran her hands up and down his six-pack.

"Oh..." Ana moaned as Christian unhooked her bra and she helped him get rid of it.

"We need a bed." He said as he carried her to the bed and placed her on it.

He hovered over her body as he kissed her lips once again.

"Your shirt is dirty, take it off."

"You are dirty." He replied with a smirk as he left her lips and stood up on his knees and took off his shirt.

"Now we are fair." She said as she caressed his strong and muscular chest.

"I like this definition of fair." He said as he took her breasts in his hands. He kissed them and then took her right nipple in his mouth.

Ana's moans were his new favorite sound. The way her hands stopped on his arms as he bit her, allowing her to concentrate on her pleasure.

As he took her other nipple in his mouth, his hand made its way to her panties.

"Christian..."

Ana felt her orgasm slowly building up as his hand rubbed her clit and when he inserted his fingers in her and started to move it was too much.

"Oh, God, yes!" She yelled as the pleasure ripped through her body.

This definitely was not a bad decision to come here tonight. This was... and he hadn't even taken off his boxers yet!

"I. Want. You. Inside. Of. Me." She said each word as she reached to get to the lower side of his body, taking off his boxers to reveal his rock hard member.

He lowered his body so that he was hovering over her again and kissed her lips with one of his hands in her hair, and with the other he took a condom from his bedside table. He ripped the foil open and rolled it on his length.

And then he kept kissing her as he filled her.

It was hard to kiss when all Ana wanted to do was scream. In pleasure! He was huge, and he was... he was fantastic.

Fantastic as he slowly moved within her. Fantastic as he quickened the tempo.

And fantastic to the highest level as he moved in and out of her, making her scream and come as she had never come before.

"Christian!" She yelled as she let go.

As he found his release, he stopped and rolled onto the bed so that he lay next to her.

Their breathing could be heard in the next room.

Then Christian looked at her and took a stray of her hair, moving it behind her ear. "I like your hair like this." He said as he looked in her eyes. How had he never realized she had the most beautiful eyes a woman could ever have?

"Thank you."

Christian took her in his arms and kissed her before he stood up and went to the bathroom. "You will be expected in here in seven minutes." He said and closed the door after him.

He quickly unpacked the candles that were going to be used. He started filling the bathtub with water and added some bath foam. Then he lit the candles and filled the glasses with red wine. When had he done so much for a girl? Maybe in high school for Elena?

But in the past ten years no girl had more attention from him than just sex. If there were candles, it was the girl who was making a romantic atmosphere.

But this was different... He didn't know why and what made this so special but he just wanted Anastasia Steele to remember this.

And two minutes later the door opened and her hand went to her mouth as she saw everything Christian had done.

"How about a bath?" Christian asked as he closed the distance between them and took her hands in his, causing the cover that she had been holding to her body fall on the floor.

She smiled and followed him to the bath.

Since it was just a hotel it was not the biggest bath she had seen, but as Christian got in and took her in his arms, it was perfect.

He took the glasses of wine and handed one to Ana.

"Mmm..." She moaned as the hot water reached the line of her breasts and she took a sip of the wine.

"Tomorrow is going to be a sunny day, I heard." Christian said, looking down at the woman in his arms. He knew he wanted to spend it with her.

"I heard it is usually sunny in Rome."

"But since we are not usually here and I plan to visit some towns nearby, I thought you could come with me."

Anastasia smiled at the invitation – more than anything she wanted to scream yes at the moment, but she was aware of the fact that it had to end.

But again something talked for her.

"That's a good idea. Anything special in mind?"

"Actually, no. How about we just take a car and drive somewhere? We can keep to the coast and decide if we want to take a swim or something... So?"

"I'm in, Grey."

"Oh, Steele..." Christian said as he brought her closer to him and kissed her neck.

"I like it here." Ana said as she took another sip of wine.

"In my arms?"

They both laughed and Christian tightened his hold of her.

"I like it in Rome. It is very beautiful here."

"Yeah, this city feels kinda old, in a good way of course, after living in Seattle."

"If I got the job, I promised myself I would finally take a vacation. And now I think I have found the perfect destination."

"If I get the job I thought of finally buying an apartment."

"The salary's big, but not that big." Ana said, shocked of his plans.

"Well, it's not a matter of salary. If I wanted, I could have taken a loan from a bank and the apartment would be mine. But I just want to achieve this. I get enough money from my own business, this is just for... for me."

"What do you do?"

"Like what?"

"You mentioned another business." Ana said.

"Just the same. Only I am the boss. I have parts from a few companies and I am waiting for their price to rise and then I sell them."

"I didn't know... Don't you have to be there to control your employees?"

"I am the only one. It is like a hobby – predicting if the price will rise and when will it happen."

"Oh, I am definitely not brave enough for that... That's why I read books."

"What's your favorite one?" Christian asked, softly drawing circles on her skin under the water.

"I have many favorites. I can tell you that I love English literature, I would love to visit London one day."

"My mom loves reading, too. We have a library in my parents' house."

"I would to have one too when I settle down. A big house with a library."

"A big house? How many children do you want?"

"Haha, it is not like that... But I don't have anything against kids. I was raised as an only child, I often wished I had someone to play with when I was at home alone."

"I am not sure I will ever settle down. But invite me to your kid's birthday parties. I like to see children knowing that they are raised in happy families and that they are loved."

"Wasn't your family good to you? I thought you loved them?"

"Well, I do, I really do. But the hate for my biological mother is just something that I don't think I will be able to get over."

"Why do you hate her that much? Many horrible parents leave their children. The Grey's have been wonderful to you."

"I know, but it is a long story..."

Ana looked at him with a soft smile. "We have all night."

And that was all they had, he reminded himself. "So let's not waste it." He put their glasses away and brought her to him that they were able to comfortably kiss each other.

His hands were touching her everywhere. Her warm and soft body, her perfect body.

And as they parted for air they stood up and Christian dried Ana with one of the hotel's towels.

Ana took another and did the same to Christian.

And when they were finished Christian took her in his arms and carried her back to the bed.

This time it was slow and sensual.

The first time had been hot and wild sex. This time was making love. Without any actual love, of course.

The next round was something wilder since they did it on the hotel balcony.

But then they returned to the bed for the final round that was something so powerful and passionate and yet so sweet and tender.

"Perfect." Ana murmured as she rested her head on Christian's chest.

"Sweet dreams, Ana." He said as he turned off the little bedside lamp.

"Sweet dreams, Christian." She replied as she lightly kissed his skin, in response feeling her hair being kissed.
