Jumping ahead…
May: (10 months later... both Ana and Christian are 19 going on 20)
ANA:
GEH is growing at rapid speed. We have over 20 companies under our umbrella, including a shipping company. This doesn't include the companies we have sold off.
Now that we have a shipping yard, Christian is really excited to start sending food to other countries. I call it is 'Feed the World plan'. I love it! He doesn't want anyone to be hungry like he was. On top of that, we give to the local food banks, homeless shelters, and woman shelters. Christian has one of the biggest hearts of anyone I know. He'll just never admit to it.
Since the word got out about GEH and the young 19-year-old CEO people have been all a buzz about it. Although it's sometimes hard for people to take him serious as a business owner, he holds his own, doesn't take any crap and keeps on going. Forbes has projected that GEH will be a multi-billion company in at least 2 years.
Ros is finally here after she got her degree, and I was able to finish my degree about a month ago. Last December and January, we started hiring like crazy. We needed people for Accounting, Financial, legal, PR, HR, Marketing, and etc. I hired Barney Samson and Fred Welch for the IT department. They have been a great addition and have qualms about working under me. We went from having only 20 people working for us to over 200.
In February, since we hired so many people, in which we'll keep hiring, so we decided we needed a larger building. So we bought one, a 20 story office building in downtown, very close to where we were before. We dubbed it 'GREY HOUSE'. Elliot was our lead contractor and got the building done quickly. By April we were moving in. Elliot was also bitten by the business bug and started his own construction company when he got out of college. We supported his start-up, and his business is booming- The Grey name gets places.
Teddy is 1 and a half and a little ball of energy. Teddy started walking when he was 11 months old, and now there's no stopping him. Now that we have hired more staff, I now try to get home at 4 o'clock to be home with Teddy. Gail has been wonderful, and Teddy adores her.
It was really hard in the beginning with Christian working all the time. He does his best to fit in Teddy as much as he can. If he's home for bedtime, he'll tuck him in and read him a story. By February, Christian started taking Sunday's off to spend with us. He might take a couple phone calls or check some e-mails but he's pretty much a hands on daddy and boyfriend come Sunday.
We're still going at it like rabbits, the sex gets better and better every time. We're always having sex in the office, either during lunch, or he'll text me when he needs me when he's stressed and I'll come up and relive the tension. Luckily the new office at Grey House is sound proof. I do wonder sometimes how we get any work done.
Today I'm interviewing PA's for Christian and maybe Ros. I finally convinced my hard-headed boyfriend to get a PA after months of telling him we needed one. We have a temp right now that takes phone calls and messages. But other than that it's either me or him that schedule meeting, plans business trips, etc. We both no longer can handle it. Our load is already too big.
Why am I doing the interviews and not HR? Well, let's just say Christian doesn't trust anybody else's judgement but mine. He knows I'll get someone that will be able to work and do their job.
I have 15 interviews lined up today. I've done all their background checks and had them sign NDA's. However, I'm ready to bang my head against the wall. So far all the interviews have been the same, short skirts and reliving blouses, were the first clear sign the interview was going down the drain. I would start to interview them, and once they found out Christian wasn't going to interview them, it all went in the crapper.
Even with all the media attention, Christian has gotten, nobody has linked us together. Which is odd because we're always together. I've been just labeled as an 'employee' or joint owner. We keep the PDA down to a minimal when the paps are around. Christian would like it to keep it that way, so the media stays off mine and Teddy's back. He also refuses to comment on his private life. He doesn't get why anybody cares, he's just a business man.
I take a deep breath and head back to the waiting area and call the next applicant.
"Tina Davis?" I call out to the sea of babbling woman.
A blonde with a tight bun and a sharp suit approaches me. I notice right away that the top two buttons are un-done to show off more of her cleavage. I roll my eyes, great another one.
"I'm Ms. Steele." I shake her hand and lead her to the conference room. After we sit down, I ask about her work experience, and what she has to offer GEH. She answers and speaks well, but her eyes keep shifting to the door.
"Do you have any questions for me?"
"I thought Mr. Grey would be doing the interview?"
"No, Mr. Grey is was too busy to conduct interviews. So that's why I'm here."
"Oh…" She's crestfallen. "Would I be working closely with Mr. Grey? I'm willing to work looong hours." She says in a sultry voice. Oh geez, I bet you would.
"Yes, you would be taking phone calls, setting up meetings, scheduling, and so on. Mr. Grey expects perfection. Sometimes he can be hard to work with. A bit of a hot head and a grouch." I smile. I love my Mr. Grouchy pants, especially when he bends me over and rams his cock into me. I quickly shake off the thought and squeeze my legs together. Later Ana!
"You think you should be talking about Mr. Grey that way?" She says defensively. "From what I read he seems…wonderful." She says dreamily.
"I've known Mr. Grey for a long time. He's very mercurial. But he's fair. But when things are wrong he could eat you alive." I giggle quietly. Like when he goes down on me. God, I'm horny.
"Thank you, Ms. Davis- we'll be in touch." I go to stand up. She's disappointed, she knows she blew it.
"Thank you, Ms. Steele." We shake hands and she leaves.
Before I call out the next interview, I decided to watch and listen to the security cameras in the waiting room. Maybe I could save time, if I can weed the ones that might be more after Christian, then after the job. I fire up my laptop and listen in.
There's 9 women left, but there's 7 of them huddled together talking. I zoom in and notice none of them are dressed professionally. The other two ladies are well dressed and sitting quietly. The group is going on about how young and rich Christian is, how sexy he is and they bet he has a huge package.
"If I get this job, I plan on screwing him all over this place. There's no way he could resist me." The one I match up as Leila Williams says. "I can tell by looking at him that he's a kinky one and likes it rough. Don't worry ladies I would share." They all begin laughing. Is this girl for real?
All the woman I have interviewed are between the ages of 20-24. All expect the two that don't seem to be mingling with these desperate girls. I'm not one to judge on age, but these girls need to grow up a little.
I match the two ladies photos from their background checks, I have Andrea Parker, 30. She has a great resume and worked for Mr. Gladstone for 6 years until he retired. And then I have June Summers, 32, who worked in DC as a PA and advisor for Congressman Rodgers.
The rest have positives, but I think there here for more. I tried giving everyone a shot, but I don't have time for anyone pointless dribble. I close my lap top and head back to the waiting room.
"Andrea Parker and June Summers?" They both stand up. "The rest of you can go."
"But we haven't been interviewed yet." Leila pipes up.
"I understand that, but I was listening to your ladies conversation a few minutes ago and I wasn't impressed." I see a couple of the ladies pale. "I need someone who is going to work and not spend time trying to sleep with Mr. Grey. So thank you for your time, but you won't be needed. Good luck to you. Ms. Parker, Ms. Summers, follow me."
I interview both women and was impressed with both. I decided to hire Ms. Parker for Christian, and Ms. Summers for Ros. They both will start on Monday. They were both excited.
It's 2:30 now and I'm exhausted. I head over to Christian's office to tell him the news. I enter his office and he's staring down at a bunch of spreadsheets. His hair is a mess, probably from running his fingers through it, and he has a pencil in his ear. He looks incredibly sexy right now, and I want him, Bad!
He hasn't noticed me yet so I decided to act like those slutty woman and seduce my boyfriend. I lock the door, and un-button my top to show off my blue lace bra, and hike up my skirt. I walk to his desk, placing my hands on it and bending down so he gets a full view of my cleavage.
"Is there anything I can help you with Mr. Grey?" I purr.
He finally looks up at me, well at my chest and smiles cheekily at me.
"Yes, Ms. Steele there is something you can help me with." He rolls back in his chair and then pats his leg. I go to sit on his lap and he nuzzles his head in my chest. I grab his tie and start playing with it.
"What is it you would like me to do Mr. Grey?"
"Oh, I think you know Ms. Steele." He looks down at his dick, then back to me.
"MR. GREY!" I say in mock protest, putting my hand on my chest. "What kind of girl do you think I am?"
"The kind that likes to please her boss." His eyes grow dark and filled with lust.
I smile before standing up and then falling to my knees in front of him. I unhook his belt, then unzip his pants. I pull his throbbing hard member out of his boxers. I lick the tip and clean up the little bit of pre-cum. "Is this what you want Sir?"
"Oh, very much Miss. Steele." I circle my tongue around his tip before putting him all the way down my throat. He groans and grabs a bunch of my hair, and pulls me deeper. "Oh, Ana… fuck baby." I swirl, suck and lick. He tastes so good. I love hearing him fall apart because of me. It makes me so wet. I can tell he's getting close, but then he pulls my head away. He picks me up and carries me to the couch. "I need to be inside of you." He practically throws me on the couch.
He quickly removes his pants, hitches my skirt around my hips and rips my panties off. Damn it, I really liked that pair. "You're soaking wet baby. Does sucking me turn you on?"
I nod while biting my lip. He growls at me and pounces at me. He puts his arms on the side of my head and slowly eases into me. "Baby, you're so tight." He breathes out. I wrap my legs around his back. He captures his lips with mine and he pumps into me, ever so slowly. It's not long before I feel myself build and explode around him. He picks up his pace, as he starts to kiss up and down my neck. His one hand starts playing with my covered nipple. "I feel you, baby, I want you to cum with me." He kisses me hard, and we come together. "Thank you for your help, Miss. Steele." He says still panting over me.
"Anytime, Mr. Grey."
We go to his bathroom to clean up, when we come back, he goes behind his desk, and I lean against it in front of him.
"So how did it go?"
"Once I got rid of the ones just looking to sleep with you, I was able to find someone for you, and also for Ros."
"Am I going to like them?" He asks skeptically.
"I think so. Your PA is Andrea Parker. She used to work with Mr. Gladstone. Who I hear is a bigger jerk than you." I grin smugly.
"Jerk huh? You think I'm a jerk?" He starts to tickle me and pulls me back on his lap. Sometimes it feels good to act our age. "Stop! Stop!"
"Take it back then!"
"Never!" I shout. He keeps tickling me, and I'm laughing so hard I can't breathe. "Ok, Ok. You're not a jerk. You're wonderful, amazing, and super-hot." I get out between laughs. He stops.
"That's better." He kisses me again, and before I know it we're lost in each other again. I don't think I could ever get enough of this man. "I love you, Anastasia."
"I love you too, Christian. So much." We sit cuddled together for a little bit longer before we put ourselves back together.
"Are you heading home?" Christian asks brushing his hand on my cheek.
"Yeah, I got everything done for today."
"I'm going to leave in an hour. I have to leave for Portland early to meet with Mr. Daniels about the new merger. So I want to spend time with you and Teddy."
"Good. I'll make your favorite for dinner. And I'm sure Teddy will be glad to see his daddy." I put my arms around his neck and gently kiss him.
"I do miss my little dude." He smiles. "You know what, let me grab my stuff and I'll go with you."
We arrive at the house a little after 4. Teddy and Gail are in the living room. Teddy is playing with his toys as Gail watches over him. Teddy must hear us and comes toddling over. "Dada, mama." He lifts his little arms, asking to be picked up. Christian bends down to pick him up and kisses his cheek.
"How's my baby boy?" Teddy doesn't say anything, instead, he buries his face in his neck throwing his arms around him. We sit down on the couch and Teddy hops back down to play with his toys. We send Gail home for the night, but not before he gives her a hug and kiss.
I let Christian hang out with Teddy while I cook dinner. I decided to make Mac and Cheese, it's my two favorite guys, favorite meal.
We sit at the table, Teddy in his high chair between us, making more a mess with his food. He's getting more on his, then in his mouth. I love when it's just the three of us, spending time together as a family. No phones, no work.
"So I had an idea?" Christian states
"Yeah?"
"How would you feel about moving to a bigger place? Like a house on the Sound with a meadow?"
"That sounds really nice, but wherever would we find such a place?" I ask, already knowing he's found the perfect place.
He stands up and grabs his briefcase. He pulls out a couple of papers and pulls up a chair next to me.
"Tell me what you think." He says handing me the papers.
I look over the specs of the house. It's almost 12,000 sq. A mansion on 6 acres of land. It has a music room, a library, a study, indoor, outdoor pool, and an exercise room. 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms with 2 half baths. There's even a 3,000 sq ft. guesthouse.
"Don't you think it's a little much for us?" Such a big house for a couple of teenagers. I giggle at the thought.
"What are you giggling at?" He looks amused.
"Who would have ever thought a few years ago that we would be looking at a house like this? Two 19-year-olds buying this house. The Realtor is going to think there being punk'd."
"I thought this would come later in life, but it got here quicker than I ever imagined." He leans over to kiss me. "Plus it's a good investment. It has a good price because it needs a lot of work, which we can hire Elliot for."
"It's a lot of house for us."
"I know. But Gail will be able to move in. Plus it will be perfect whenever we decided to expand our family." He says wispily.
"What are you planning to have 10 more or something?" I laugh.
"No, but maybe 2 or 3." I shake my head at him and smile. "One day, when things aren't so crazy, couple years or so. Anyways I made plans to go look at it Sunday, if you hate it, we'll keep looking, but I have a feeling the view is going to sell you."
"Mama." I look over at Teddy, he finished his food, but he's sticky and covered in cheese.
"We can look at it Sunday, but right now we need to get this little guy in the tub."
Christian goes to take Teddy out of his highchair, while I clean up the mess he made.
"Who's ready for a bath?" Christian holds Teddy out like he's flying making zooming noises. Teddy is giggling, loving every minute of it.
After we get Teddy to bed, Christian and I go to bed as well, but definitely not to sleep.
Sunday:
Christian was right, the view of the house did sell me. It was breathtaking. Overlooking the Sound, you can see Bainbridge Island and Olympic National Park. Sail boats bob up and down in the water. Then there's the meadow, I can just see myself laying in it.
The house is nice too. The entrance way has a beautiful curved, sweeping staircase. French doors that open to a large stone terrace, which also had a fantastic view. The great room was huge, it had a balcony above for the landing of the 2nd floor. A huge fireplace I can picture myself cuddling with Christian in front of.
The master suite was my favorite room. Full- height windows that open to a balcony that overlooked the sound. Two walk-in closets, and a huge master bathroom. Christian wants to put in a bigger shower and tub, so there's plenty of room for both of us. Teddy loved it, he was so busy running in and out of every room.
We finally finish touring the house and head back to the car. Christian places a sleeping Teddy in his car seat. I put my arms around Christian's waist and lay my head on his chest.
"It's perfect. Maybe a tad too big, but perfect." He kisses the top of my head.
"I told you, you would like it." He tightens his hug around me. "Sometimes I have to pinch myself to tell me it's all real." He mummers.
"Oh trust me it's very real. Tomorrow morning will remind you how you earned all this."
"US!" He says firmly. "We, together, earned this."
"Yes, sir." He leans down and kisses me.
"But I was also thinking how I have you and Teddy. Freshman year, I thought I would die a virgin and alone. I was so angry at the world, and nobody could touch me. Then junior year, you came into my life and turned it upside down. I was no longer a virgin, no longer alone, no longer fighting, and I could finally be touched. There are times I think I'm going to wake up and be in my old bed at my parents' house. And it was all a dream."
I have tears in my eyes "I'm not going anywhere. And you changed my life to. I never thought I could be happy like this, till you came into my life."
We're kissing now hot and heavy, when he backs me into the car. He separates his lips from mine. "If we didn't have Teddy with us, I would be taking you against the hood of this car."
I shiver, and not from the chill in the air, but from the delicious thought. All I can do is nod as he opens the door for me. I get in the car while he gets in the driver side. He starts the engine, leans over the console. Grabbing my face gently to look at him.
"After we move in and Teddy is with Grandma and Grandpa, I'm going to first take you over the hood of this car, and then we will christen every room in this house as well." I squirm in my seat at his intoxicating threat. My panties are soaked.
"I look forward to it," I whisper. "But, I can't wait that long to have you again. I need a preview of what's to come."
"Oh, you'll be coming baby. Let's get home and when we get the stinker to bed tonight, I'll give you a preview over and over again." He kisses me again and drives out of the gate of our future home. I can't wait till we get back to our home now, and get dirty with my man. Too bad it's a couple of hours to bed time.
A/N: I know nothing about starting a business or business in general. So please just keep that in mind. I'm trying my best to make it sound realistic, but it is fiction and in this world, unicorns exist. The house description came from Fifty Shades Darker by E.L James. I have one more chapter for today. It's short, but I think you're going to like it. I enjoyed writing it. Two for Thursday!
I had a guest review and since I can't reply to it here it is and for others who might want to know... I know it moved fast, but there's not much to write about with them in college and having a baby. I mean I could write a book about dirty diapers and feeding. But I live that every day and well it's boring And I think there's already so many good stories about Ana & Christian with the kids (like Ana and Christian having a baby and also stories by AshBax) And with them not wanting to get married. It's not that they wouldn't or don't want to. But there still only 18/19 years old. Plus, you can be happy and in love without being married. And it's my belief you should live together first I think you'll like the next chapter. Thanks for the review.
