A/N I know it's been a while but I have been dealing with a lot. I feel horrible for not updating but I'm finally starting to feel like my old self again. I want to thank everyone who still reads my stories. Hope you like it. Already writing next chapter.

P.s

During my depression the last couple of weeks, I've began to write a new story. I'm very hesitant to post it, but if one of my loyal readers wants to give it a read, I'll be more then happy to send it to you. And if you like it, I'll post it.

Apov Friday

As I sit in the teachers lounge trying to enjoy my break, I become annoyed with the looks my fellow teachers are giving me. Yes they know that I'm involved with Christian Grey, but what they don't know is that I've had feelings for Christian since high school. So as you can probably guess, I've been called a gold digger more times then I would care to admit. I try not to let it bother me and I would never tell Christian; he'll jump on the opportunity to move me back to Seattle.

I pull out my phone and call him once again, no answer. I haven't talked to him at all today, no calls, no text, nothing. The last time I talked to him he told me Ashley basically threw herself at him. My first reaction was to call it quits, but if we're ever going to have a real chance together I'll have to trust him. As I look down at his watch that hangs off my wrist, I feel a small wave of paranoia wash over me. I hope he's OK. To keep myself sane, I pull out a few of my students paper and begin to grade them. I spot Lisa Matthews walking towards my direction and say a silent prayer that she doesn't feel the need to talk.

"Oh Ana, there you are. I've been looking all over for you." Crap!

"And why is that?" Like I said, Lisa isn't a friend of mine, so I have no idea why she feels the need to talk to me any chance she gets.

"Well, I was wondering if you wanted to donate anything for the fundraiser?"

"I've already donated." I don't understand why she feels the need to single me out. I've donated money twice in the last two weeks. The fundraiser is to raise money for this years senior trip. Don't get me wrong, donating anything isn't a problem. I just feel as if she has some secret agenda behind her passive aggressive ways.

"I'm aware of that. I just thought maybe you could ask your boyfriend to help out."

"Help out?"

"You know, as in write a check. It's not as if he doesn't have it."

I almost want to laugh. I know for a fact Christian would never have a problem with helping out, but the nerve of her thinking I would just ask him for money.

"If you don't mind, I'll like to get back to my students work" Returning my attention back to the papers in front of me, Lisa has no choice but to walk away. I can hear whispers of the gossiping woman behind me, and try my best to ignore it when I hear my name. But it gets harder and harder to do when I repeatedly hear gold digger and bitch along with it. I count to ten and keep my eyes fixed on the papers in my hand, otherwise I would just start swinging and I value my job too much to lose it over something so small.

As I look over my students work I become aware of how silent everyone around me has gone. I feel a calmness wash over me, causing my heart to beat faster. Knowing only one person has that effect on me I look up in search of him. There he is ladies and gentlemen, the always stunning Christian Grey. He's making his way towards me not paying attention to anyone else, I don't leave my seat for fear that I will most likely attack him like a horny school girl. He takes a seat next to me and begins to fidget with his watch that I've worn every day we've been apart.

"Excuse me, but I think you have my watch." The biggest smile spreads across his face and I'm more then sure I'm wearing one as well.

"I've missed you so much." I wrap him in a hug." You should have told me what time you were coming."

"I wanted to surprise you. Besides, I thought I could look around the school and see if I could help out in certain departments"

Christian always feels the need to help out anyway that he can. I place a very small kiss on his lips. "My lunch is almost over, I wish you could have gotten here earlier."

"Me to, but at least it'll be just the two of us for the next few days." My imagination runs wild with possibilities."

"I'm guessing you have something special planned."

"You know me so well. And if you think I'm going to tell you what it is, you're wrong."

I laugh out loud. "I knew you were going to say that." He begins to laugh as well.

"As much as I would love to stay here and laugh with you, I have to meet the principal." With a quick kiss on the cheek, he's gone.

I know that I have the biggest smile planted on my face because my cheeks hurt. I knew Christian would arrive in Savannah today, but I never thought he would surprise me at work. As I gather my things to head back to my classroom, I'm well aware of the glares I'm receiving. Every female teacher and a couple of the males have a look of an expression on their face that is anything but pleasant. I couldn't care less, these people aren't important to me. I come to work to help my students, not to make friends. Call me a bitch if you want, but the kids I teach love me and that's all that matters.

I've looked at every inch of this school and I have to say it's in pretty good shape. It can use a few more computers and some new books in the library, but besides that it's perfect. When I asked about the sports teams the principal informed me that they raise the money themselves every year for their uniforms, equipment and transportation. I admire that kind of determination but raising money to do something that you love to do is the last thing these kids should have to worry about. So GEH will be making a very generous donation to the athletic department. As last bell rings, students start to spill out into the halls. I maneuver through the crowd and finally make it to Ana class only to find students pouring into it. I peek my head in and spot Ana passing out papers. I'm sure school is over, so I don't understand whats going on.

"Ana, what are you doing?" She jumps at the sound of my voice.

"Christian, I forgot to tell you I stay on Fridays to help some students out."

"Oh, well I'll just wait right here." I pull a chair next to her desk and take a seat. She smiles and goes about doing what ever she was doing.

I sit and listen to Ana talk to her students as if they were her friends. She answers their questions and if need be repeats herself if someone doesn't understand. She seems to just accept the responsibility that being a teacher brings, it's a beautiful thing to see. As four o'clock draws near, Ana ask if anyone has a question. A brown haired, green eyed little girl no older then fifteen hand shoots up in the air.

"Excuse me sir, but are you Miss. Steele's boyfriend?" I'm shocked, but I don't know what to say.

"Um, yes I am." Ana begins to laugh at my shocked state.

"How long have you been together?" Another girl in the back screams out.

"A week, but we've been friends for ten years."

"Aww." Ana is laughing out loud by now.

"Does anyone have anymore questions?"

I scan the room but the girls are to busy giggling. Once Ana pulls herself together and stops laughing, she dismisses the kids and we head out to her car. Once we're driving to her apartment I feel the need to ask a question that's been bugging me.

"Hey Ana, do you tutor every Friday?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Don't you go out with friends on Fridays or something?"

She looks a little uncomfortable."No, not really."

"Ana, what aren't you telling me?"

She sighs." I'm not the person I was in Seattle. I don't feel the need for friends, I thought I told you this."

I know why she feels that way, I just hate that she has basically been alone for two years, pushing away anyone who dared to befriend her. "If it means anything, I think you're the same person you were in Seattle."

She furrows her brow."you do?"

"Yeah. I just think you're really good at hiding it."

After a few seconds of silence all she manages to say is "maybe you're right."

The rest of the ride is spent in silence. I can't wait to get to Ana inside her apartment. I have the whole weekend planned out, and it doesn't all include sex. Once we reach her apartment building, it takes no time at all before were practically attacking each other. I'm very well aware that any one of her neighbor's could see us, I just don't care. We're forced to stop due to the lock on Ana's door. Once it's open, we don't stop for anything.

We're all hands and lips, love and lust. Her body calls for me as my body calls for her. I would love to lay in bed with Ana and make love, but after two years of being apart, I need her just as much as she needs me. She rips open my shirt, sending my buttons flying every which way. I repay the gesture, exposing her perfect breast covered by a black push up bra. Our kissing never skips a beat as I press her to the nearest wall. She grabs my hair and pulls me closer to her, if that's even possible. I reach down pulling her pencil skirt up to her waist. She pushes my pants down, freeing my manhood. I grab a hold of her round ass, lifting her up. I pull her panties and listen as they tear away from her skin. She sinks down on me and its pure bliss. We both let out moan of pleasure. I pump in her and she pushes down on me. There's nothing but silence as the sound of our heavy breathing echoes off the walls. I roll my hips and she whimpers. Over and over I feel her tighten around me as I pull out, only to welcome me back in wetter then before. As I look into her eyes I see undying, unwavering, unconditional love and I could only hope she knows I feel the same way.

"Anastasia, I love you. I will always love you."

"I love you to Christian. Always"

Without another word spoken, we move in harmony. We climax together crying out each others name. I sink to the floor placing Ana in my lap. We both take a second to catch our breaths. I run my hand up and down her back. Completely and utterly satisfied with what just happened. And then it hits me and I bolt upright.

"Shit! We didn't use a condom."

Ana sits up, unfazed by my realization.

"Calm down. I'm on birth control."

I once again fall back into the comfortable silence I only have with Ana. She rakes her fingers through my hair and I'm reminded of her doing the same thing when I was in the hospital. I hear my watch jingle around her wrist. I sit up.

"Are you ever going to give me my watch back?"

She looks at me with a smirk touching her beautiful face." I don't know. I've grown attached to it."

"I thought that might happen." I get up from the floor, carrying a giggling girlfriend. I head straight to her room. "Don't be mad, but I had your building manager unlock your door so I could drop off my luggage."

Instead of yelling like I expected her to do, she continues to laugh." You never cease to amaze me."

I enter her bedroom and lay her on the bed while I rummage around my suitcase until I find what I'm looking for. I retrieve my present for Ana and take a seat next to her.

"I know you might like my watch, but I have a feeling you'll love yours."

I present her with a box and with hesitant hands she takes it.

"Christian, you really didn't have to."

"I know. I wanted to."

She opens it and gasp at the white gold Rolex that steers back at her. "Oh Christian, it's gorgeous."

"Read the back."

She flips it over and reads the back aloud. "My freshman, forever young and beautiful."

I help her put it on her wrist and take a moment to admire the woman in front of me. Her hair is a glorious mess, her lips are somewhat swollen and her shirt has fallen completely off, leaving her in nothing but a bra and a skirt.

"Do you like it?"

"Christian, I love it." She kisses me with tears slipping down her face. What Anastasia and I share is epic, I know I'll only ever have this with her. As she straddles my lap, I sink into her slowly. There is no place I'll rather be then inside the love of my life.

Cpov Saturday morning

As I wonder around Ana's apartment, I'm pleasantly surprised by the arrangement of photos she has hanging around her living room, They're all from her life in Seattle. Photos of her and Kate, her and Mia, her and Jose and numerous photos of us all together. But sadly at some point there's no longer photos of her with friends, just picture after picture of her and her parents. I want Ana to have the life she had when she was surrounded by friends, as opposed to her life of solitude she has now. I just refuse to push her into forgiving Anyone, she was hurt and dealt with it in the best way that she could. All that matters now is that we're together.

"Hey, what are you doing?" I turn to find Ana wrapped in a robe and making her way into the living room.

"I was just looking at your pictures." She comes and stands next to me, laying her head on my shoulder. She doesn't say a word while she looks over the memoirs of her old life and her old friends." I'm surprised you kept these after everything that happened."

She lets out a heavy sigh." It might not seem like it, but these were some of the best moments of my life with my closest friends, I could never bring myself to get rid of them."

"Do you think you'll ever consider forgiving them?"

"It's hard to say. Neither Mia or Elliot apologized for what happened, so I don't really have anything to consider."

I guess she's right. How can she forgive someone who never apologized. I can see this is the last thing she wants to talk about, so I change the subject. "So do you want to know what I have planned?"

She's bouncing with excitement. "Of course I do."

"I thought maybe we could stay in and watch some of your favorites. You know sleepy hollow, Sweeny Todd, Rent and your all time favorite grease." She throws her head back in laughter.

"Are you seriously willing to watch all those movies with me?" I don't really like any of the movies Ana has deemed her favorites over the years, but if this is what she likes, so be it.

"Anything for you. But first you have to make breakfast, I'm starving."

Ana and I were so wrapped up in each other last night, we forgot to eat. At one point she got up to make sandwiches, but she was completely naked so you can only imagine what happened next. Yup, I fucked her on the kitchen floor. Come to think about it, we've had sex everywhere in this apartment.

"Alright, but you have to promise not to attack me for sex while I'm cooking."

"I'll try, but I can't make any promises." We both laugh knowing I'm being one hundred percent serious.

She goes about making pancakes and I try with all my might not to tear apart her robe. When it's all said and done I'm rock hard and in desperate need of my girlfriend. As she places my plate in front of me her breast brush against my face.

"Anastasia, I know what you're trying to do."

She bats her eyelashes innocently."I have no idea what you're talking about Christian."

A smirk plays on my lips. After breakfast she decides to take a shower while I check my phone. I have a few calls from Elliot, a couple of text messages from Mia and my dad and two voice mails. I listen to the first one and its from my mother telling me she needs to talk. The second one is from Ashley yelling about the codes to the penthouse not working. Damn right the codes aren't working. I don't want her in my home, I thought I made myself clear. This weekend is about Ana, so I refuse to let my annoying ex get under my skin. As I make my way to the shower, I hear Anastasia's soft voice singing. I open the bathroom door and steer in awe at the woman in front of me. As she stands under the cascading waters she sings ever so lightly.

Will you still love me

When I'm no longer

Young and beautiful?

I strip out of my clothes and step in the shower behind her. She doesn't seem the least surprised. I wrap my arms around her waist and pull her closer to me while I place kisses from her neck to her shoulder. My fingers slide down her leg, inching closer to her core. I stick one finger inside and pull it out, I do it over and over in a achingly slow pace. Her breaths become shallow and I know she's getting close. I stick another finger in and rub her nub with my thumb. She yells out in ecstasy. In and out, round and round my fingers go to work on her perfect body. She moans what sounds like my name and not to long after she climaxes. She doesn't take a second to catch her breath before she's all over. She kisses down my neck, my chest and I know exactly where this is going. As she drops to her knees, my heart beeps fast in anticipation. She looks at me through her lashes as she grabs ahold of my manhood,

Apov Sunday

Having Christian here is pure bliss, I can be my regular self and not so isolated. It comes to a end tonight because he has to fly back home. You would think since this is his last night with me, we would be making love. Well we're not, we're shopping for baby clothes. I couldn't believe he didn't get Kate and Elliot anything for their baby shower yet, so I thought it would be nice if we looked together. I'm still debating whether or not I want to go but that doesn't mean I don't plan on getting her a gift.

As Christian and I walk hand and hand around some high priced baby store, I can't help but fall in love with all the adorable tiny clothes and toys. Of course Christian isn't as into it as I am but he grabs whatever catches my eye. At the end of it he has a pile of anything and everything pink we could find. It causes me to laugh while he tries to make it to the cashier without dropping all of it. As he pays I wonder around some more, not really in the mood to watch the clerk flirt with him. I walk further back into the infant boys section. I can't help but think of the copper hair little boy from my dream. I never thought about having children, but the idea of it brings a smile to my face. I spot a married couple and the wife is obviously with child. They look so happy, and why shouldn't they be? Soon they'll have another person to add to their family.

"Ana?" I turn to find Christian with at least twelve bags.

"Yeah."

"Are you ok?"

"Yeah, it's just kind of weird that Kate is actually having a baby." Kate never wanted kids and she didn't necessarily care about marriage, but I guess when you find your true soul mate things change.

Cpov

Ana has been a little strange since we've picked out the presents for the baby shower. I can't help but wonder if she wants kids. If she does, I'm not sure how I feel about it. Don't get me wrong, I'll love to start a family with Ana, I just want to enjoy the time we have alone for now. Still I want her to know how committed I am to her. While Ana has been in her bedroom getting ready for dinner tonight, I've been debating with myself on weather or not I should go ahead with my plan or not. As she makes her way into the living, I brace myself for her reaction.

"So, are you ready to go?" She doesn't know where we're having dinner but I suspect she knows it has something to do

with a boat.

"Yeah, but first it's something I want to talk to you about." She sits down next to me, fear evident on her face.

"Christian, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to give you something." I pull my gift from my jacket pocket, she gasp the moment she sees it." It's not what you."

"Then what is it?"

"It's just something to show you I love you. I know I haven't always been a good guy, but I've always loved you. I know our relationship is still new and I'm not quite sure how you feel about a future with me. But I can give you this because I can honestly say you're it for me."

She doesn't say a word, she just steers. A tear falls and she wipes it away quickly. The biggest smile spreads across her face and not long after I find myself making love to the woman of my dreams.
