Okay, I'm so sorry for the delay on this chapter! I had it written ages ago, but due to internet issues (i.e. it hasn't been working when it should have been working), I haven't been able to post it. Flipping Internet Service Providers. Useless the lot of them!

"Excuse me, Mr Grey is there any chance that we could be continuing with this this meeting now? I have a busy day ahead of me and I'd rather not waste my time" Pamela asked, breaking the silence in the room that had fallen over everyone.

"You have a busy day, Miss Warren. Try being me for a day. See how busy that you will be then" Christian replied with ease, effectively ripping her to shreads as he did so.

"Now if we can start with our meeting. Mr Grey these are our new interns. Bobby Pryce, Anastasia Steele, Tommy Jones, Karen Connolly, and Amanda Matthews" Miss Warren stated, sounding extremely chastised.

Serves her right, I thought to myself. Nobody speaks to my man like that and gets away with it.

Hold on … my man? I had to chase away that thought rather quickly as Christian and I hadn't had that particular chat just yet – and plus, had his feelings already changed now that he knew that I was working for him?

"It's good to meet you all, and I do hope that over the course of time that we will all be able to get to know each other better during your six month internship with us here at Grey Enterprises Holdings. Now, the purpose of this meeting this morning is not only for us to be able to meet each other but also to give me a chance to go over some of the company policies as well as what is to be expected of you, and then at the end of the six months as you know, one of you will be offered a permanent job within the company" Christian said, and even though I tried my best to take in what he was saying, I found myself being distracted because of his …. sexiness, and it seemed that I was having the same effect on him, as every few seconds, I caught his eyes on me.

"Now, on the table in front of you, you will find a folder enclosed with some documents that you might find useful to you during your time with us…" Christian continued, but was interrupted by a nervous cough from one Miss Pamela Warren.

"Umm … Mr. Grey, the folders are here. I hadn't quite gotten around to handing them out to them yet" she said.

"Why not?" Christian asked, in a commanding tone, whilst raising one of his eyebrows at the same time.

"Mr Grey, I think you know full well why the folders haven't been handed out" she said, practically purring at him.

I began to feel sick. Were they together? How long had they been together? What had he told her when he had been with me all weekend? Were they serious? Was I just his dirty little bit on the side that he didn't want the world to know about?

"I think I'm going to run to the bathroom" I said to the person sitting beside me, before rising out of my chair quickly and practically running from the room. Even though I didn't exactly know where the toilets were in this place, I ran down the corridor and towards the exit of the building, where I did eventually find toilets to hide in, where eventually the tears began to flow.

I allowed myself to cry for a few moments, wallowing in my own self pity, before I came to the conclusion that I had to go through with this, regardless of Christian Grey. I had to continue on with the internship – if it was still open to me, after the scene that I was sure that I had already caused, that is, and just as I was about to get myself up and off of the toilet (quite literally), there was a knock on the door of the stall that I was currently hiding in.

"Ana, baby. Let me in" came Christian's voice from the other side of the door, and it was a lot softer and unsure that what it had been just moments before.

"No. Go away Christian. I don't want to see you again – you quite clearly have a girlfriend that you didn't even have the decency to tell me about" I said, sounding a lot stronger than what I felt.

"I don't have a girlfriend, Ana. Let me in so I can talk to you properly, please baby" he said, practically begging me, and even though I knew that I really probably shouldn't have even considered opening the door, I did, and he quickly slid in through the door, locking it again behind himself.

"Explain" I said, folding my feet up on top of the toilet underneath myself.

"Baby, she's not my girlfriend …. I admit that Miss Warren and I have had sex a few times, but not in the past three months at all. I promise you that" he answered.

"Why not?" I asked, despite myself even though it was none of my business really what had happened between the pair of them.

"You really want to know, Ana?" he questioned.

"No. I don't. I'm just curious" I said.

"Well, she became more than a little clingy, and plus she found out some things about me that she didn't want to know. However, this morning – literally as soon as I arrived, she came up to my office on the top floor and told me that she was okay with my choice of …. lifestyle, if you like, and that she wanted to resume our relationship. I politely told her to fuck off and banned her from my office. Her job is also on the line right now – I just need a good reason to fire her. Unfortunately, for me she is good at her job" Christian said, softly.

"Your choice of lifestyle?" I questioned.

"That is a story for another day, baby. Right now we need to be getting back to this infernal meeting, when all I really want to be doing is crawling back into bed with you" Christian said, opening up his arms to me.

"Tell me, Christian. Don't try to hide anything from me. It's not going to do either of us any good if you try to worm your way out of it. Tell me" I said.

"Okay. Just not right now. After work tonight, I'll come pick you up and take you to my place, where I will explain everything to you. Now come and give me a kiss" he said, and I couldn't help but oblige him.

So … what do we think? Review to send me your thoughts and I will do my very best to get back to you as soon as I can …
