A/N: Thank you so much for your support in reading my story as I truly appreciate it! I have a few more chapters coming in which Ana and Leila will come face to face! Please feel free to review =) As always thank you for reading! Enjoy!

Those gray eyes that once captivated me and made me feel passion now instill in me agonizing, crippling, trepidation. I watch him as he makes his way from the corner of my room to my bed. I hold onto my blankets knowing full well that pieces of fabric will not stop him.

"Mr. Grey what are you doing here?" Though tears are building up in my eyes I try to stay undaunted, resistant to the anger evident on his face."

Immediately Christian stands over my bed.

"Leila, what the fuck are you doing!" He bangs his fist on the wall so hard that the pictures hanging shake and I shake along with them.

"I'm living my life Christian. Now I don't know why you are here but please….please get out!"

"Leila, when I last saw you in Anastasia's office I told you to stay away from my family. If you think that meant only my wife and me then you are mistaken. I know you were with my sister, my brother's fiancée, and her brother."

"Correction, Grey, I was with Mia, Kate, and my boyfriend."

"Boyfriend? Do you expect me to believe that bullshit?! That your with Kate's brother!"

"Yes, I do."

"All your support is done for! This is it! I tried to be understanding but you want to cross me!"

I stand up out of my bed with resiliency and head over to my living room. Christian immediately follows me. I open my workbag and take out Christian's check.

"Here take this. Its the money you sent me for my college tuition…..Oh and here..

I take off the diamond bracelet and hand it to him.

"I don't want it.

He slams the diamond bracelet against the wall and paces quickly towards me running his fingers through his hair. I race to retrieve the bracelet heading in an opposite direction of Christian.

"I won't hurt you but best believe me you will not get near my family again! I will not let you hurt anyone!"

"Christian, don't you understand? I found love too! I love Ethan! I want to be with him. I know that you can understand that too….can't you? You and me led these crazy, secret lives and I guess in some ways it led us to find out who we were really meant to be with. You are with Anastasia and I am okay with that. I am not trying to get to her. I'm happy for you and you are going to be a father."

"Stop it Leila! Why the fuck should I believe you, that you've changed! You knew what you were going to get yourself into in trying to get to my family! You think I wouldn't find out!"

"Mr. Christian Grey! Do not talk to me in that tone or come into my apartment and treat me like dog shit! I am no longer your submissive! You are no longer my master, I am not your weekend fuck anymore! I am giving you back your check. I don't care if it kills me I will make it on my own. And take this….this bracelet. Just remember Christian, you gave this to me when I had a heart and you didn't!

"Leila? What the hell is going on?"

Me and Christian both look towards the door to see Ethan standing there.

Oh shit! How long has he been standing there?

"How did you get in here?" I ask, nearly hyperventilating at how dire the situation is becoming.

"Last night Olivia gave me a key to come in and check on you today. I see you have company and I see that there is somewhat of unfinished business with you two. I stand here to see you two yelling at each other. Oh and also come to find out that you two were in some sort of relationship with each other. You failed miserably to mention Christian to me Leila."

"Ethan, baby, please I was going to talk to you today and…

Ethan puts up his hands up towards me shaking his head.

"I don't have a fucking thing to say to you. You lied about the bracelet. You had to have then known who Mia was and didn't say anything to me. You lied and said you googled Christian when you actually knew him, were involved with him! Do you still love him!?"

I don't care how desperate I look I run up to Ethan and throw my arms around his neck.

"No, NO! "Please baby, don't leave. I promise I'll explain everything. I promise."

Christian intercedes.

"Ethan, this woman has a history of not being well. I'm repentant to say that a few months ago when you were going to stay at your sister's and Ana's apartment, this woman was the woman who held my wife at gunpoint threatening to shoot her. A doctor colleague of mine and myself transported Miss Williams to a clinic to heal. She was just using you to get close to my family. For what reason, I don't know but it ends here."

"Leila, is that true?" Ethan's voice is distressed and his eyes are becoming cloudy with moisture of tears beginning to form. This sends me over the edge and I start crying uncontrollably. He shakes my shoulders.

"Look at me! Is this true?"

"Not all of it."

"You held Ana at gunpoint?"

My lips are folded in my mouth as I can no longer speak. Tears are streaming down my face.

I nod my head saying yes.

Ethan covers his face after a few excruciating seconds then turns to face me.

"I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. You're a fucking liar and sick!"

"Ethan please no…." I can feel my heart breaking. I can barely stand.

"Please, Ethan, I love you! Please, you are everything to me, lets talk about this please lets just…..!" I stutter my words as I continue to cry convulsively.

"I need to get the fuck out of here."

"Ethan, I have Taylor out front. We are heading back to Seattle. I cannot leave my wife for much longer. I have contacted Mia and Elliot who has contacted Kate who will also be heading back to Seattle today. Please accompany us. I will take you to get your things if you wish."

"Thank you Christian. I will take you up on that offer."

"Leila, you will no longer have ties with my family. Its over completely. Focus on your life not ours. "

My whole world came crashing down. Ethan slams the key on my desk and heads over to the door with Christian following. As Ethan and Christian leave I lay as a pile of mess on the floor. I curl up into a fetal position not wanting to move. As I lay there I let all my tears fall to the floor.

3 hours later…..

I wake up to Olivia shaking me and trying to pull me off the floor. I had cried myself to sleep.

"Lele what happened to you! Whats wrong!"

The tears begin to fall again.

"Olivia, Ethan left me. He went back to Seattle. He never wants to see me again."

I bury my face in my knees. I can't even face her. I am too embarrassed and ashamed. I'm still dumbstruck as to what happened today.

"Leila you better give me some fucking details right now because as it is I'm two seconds away from hunting his ass down!"

"While you were at work Christian came into the apartment."

"Christian! How did that fucker get in here?!"

"I don't know. He just was here alright! He accused me of trying to get near his family, to harass them. I think he thought that I was using Ethan to get to him or Anastasia. Its not true. I love Ethan. As luck would have it, Ethan came in to check on me and saw me and Christian arguing. We were so involved in our argument we didn't notice he had been standing there for quite sometime. He heard everything. He called me a liar, a fucking liar and said he didn't want to see me anymore. I guess sometimes you can't always win in the end right? Oh Oli, today I was going to tell him everything! Everything that happened!"

"Oh my…..Lele, I am so sorry! I would have knocked that fucker out if I'd been there! Look maybe Ethan just went through a in shock moment. Why don't you just call him?"

Olivia handed me the phone. Through muffled sobs I start to dial his number.

"We're sorry you have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service. If you feel you have reached this recording in error please check the number and try again."

"NO, Olivia No!" I scream and begin to sob hysterically. I repeatedly try and call the number again but nothing works. He changed his number. I fall back into Olivia's arms drenching her coat with my tears.

"Lele, I am here for you always. Count on me I will get you through this. I have you and you have me."

"Thank you Oli."

I fall asleep in her arms as she hugs me and I dream of Ethan.

Back in Seattle, Kate's Apartment…...

"Ethan, how could you!?"

"Listen Kate she lied to me! How was I supposed to believe her! She fucking held Ana at gunpoint!"

"Its not like she would shoot Ethan!"

"How would you know that!?"

"Because I talked to her."

Ethan shot Kate an icy glare.

Elliot had been in the car waiting when Christian and Ethan had come down from Leila's apartment. Elliot told Kate to stay quiet and they would discuss what was happening once they arrived home. Kate had never seen Elliot so serious and chose to keep her mouth shut. Regardless of who Christian or Elliot were she would not be quiet for so long. The plane ride was filled with silence. Kate intently eyed each person, studying them. Ana wouldn't answer any of her phone calls. Christian looked disturbed and in thought. Out of his suit jacket he had pulled out the bracelet Leila had worn the night before and threw it on a side table. Mia and Kate noticed the jewelry and instantly put two and two together. Once Christian dropped off Kate and Ethan at their apartment, Kate took the offensive and begin grilling Ethan on what happened and letting it be known that she knew it had to do with Leila. Ethan then proceeded to tell Kate what happened and in turn Kate wasn't being the bit understanding.

"Oh so Christian Grey is innocent! His hands are clean right? You know that bastard probably really messed her up before but you don't take that into consideration. I found out that he had done some weird kinky shit with Ana and I let that go its her business but this proves without a doubt he did the same thing to her except he didn't lover her and broke her heart! You know its funny, I love you but you can be a real dumb shit sometimes!"

"Kate!"

"Fuck you Ethan! Someone really loved you and you loved her. Now its over. Not many people….I believe….would feel comfortable with expressing they dated a billionaire like Christian or hey that they did date Christian! Secondly, Leila told you she did something stupid because you told me that she confessed something like this to you! However yes she did fail to mention that it was Ana but she was going to talk to you and tell you everything. She told me the truth herself."

"Kate I made her promise to always be honest with me even if it hurt. I wouldn't have judged her if she told me about Christian."

"Yeah you would have Ethan. You judged her the minute you walked out of her apartment and sided right next to Christian instead of stand by her. I'm glad its over because you don't deserve her."

With that being said Kate left to head to Elliot's, while Ethan remained at home. Alone.

1-1/2 months later…..

"Nayera Madrigal's gallery how may I be of assistance to you today?...mhmmm….yes Mrs. Deen…..of course….that event will be taking place next month….absolutely….you have a wonderful day as well…bye bye." Leah hangs up the phone and looks towards my direction.

"If I have to take any more phone calls about this damn event I am going to just dance in traffic!" The phone immediately rings again and Leah stares at the telephone wide-eyed and exasperated. I walk over to the front door holding it open and pointing to traffic. She laughs at me however unwillingly picks up another phone call. Sabi comes running into the gallery.

"Alright I'm ready to go eat. You mademoiselles ready to leave the fantastic world of Art?"

Leah clocks out and yells to Terri that she is going on lunch. Running up to us she hugs Sabi and lets out a big "Hell ya!"

"So, Lele where you wanna go."

"Doesn't matter I haven't had much an appetite this morning. Not feeling super well."

"Look I know your still hurting but eating is good for you!"

"No, no its not that. I just don't feel myself today that's all. Lets just go out and maybe eating will make me feel better."

"Did you drink last night?"

"No Sabi, I'm not Olivia. Lets go."

I smile at them and we head out to go eat at a Thai food place down the way. As soon as we head inside and sit down I feel horribly dizzy and put my head down on the table.

"Lele are you okay?" I look to see Leah with a concerned look on her face.

"Yes, I'm fine. I'm just dizzy. Its probably all the stress with work and the event next month. I just need to eat better and stop worrying about it so much. "

We order the food and it massive amounts of food for fourteen people make their way to our table of three.

"You guys always order way to much."

"Its called leftovers..duh." Sabi shoots me a goofy look and starts putting noodles on her plate."

"You guys…..this stuff smells….very very strong…and its too much."

"You love Thai food Lele have some. Food will make you feel better."

As I reached to take the food from Sabi, I put my hand to my mouth and hold onto my stomach.

"Bathroom! Bathroom!"

I run to the nearest bathroom and vomit. I begin to dry heave as I haven't had much to eat all day. I hear Leah outside the door calling out to me.

"Leila, girl are you okay? Are you sure you don't remember drinking?"

I had been drinking extensively since Ethan left. I knew alcohol wasn't the answer to my life's problems however it helped in the meantime. I did, however calm down the last couple of weeks. Last night I didn't drink anything at all. I feel as if I'm hung over though.

I feel absolutely dreadful. I feel sick and dreadful. Why am I letting all this stress get to me that I make myself physically sick?

I clean myself and up and head out the door.

"No Leah, I'm fine. I just don't feel good. I think I'm going to head back to work and clock out. Take the rest of the day off. I don't feel so well."

"You know, just go home, get some rest, and drink lots of water. Just call us if you need anything. We'll come by later."

I saw Leah taking out her cell phone then texting someone, probably Olivia. She kept eyeing me strangely but I assume she thinks I was drinking the night before.

Well I guess I better go home and rest before my intervention.

I headed back to the gallery and told Kathryn I had fallen ill and would be back tomorrow morning. I just needed to take the afternoon off. Luckily, she was very understanding considering the stress of preparations of the event and let me go for the day.

I arrived home at 2:00pm and went straight to my room. I needed a clean pair of pajamas and opened my dresser drawer for a fresh pair. While searching for something comfy I came across some pictures of me and Ethan. A smile flashed across my face. These were good times. I had pictures from the date night at Broadway, walks in the park. He took amazing pictures.

Oh my goodness! Here is one of me, Ethan, and Olivia, at Tequileras, and one of just us. No matter what Ethan will always be my soul mate.

I find a comfy pair of pajamas I like and head over to my bed with the picture of me and Ethan. I put the picture beside my pillow and drift off to La-La land imagining I am asleep next to him and he is holding me close.

Sweet dreams my love.

7 hours later….

"Lele get up! You've been asleep for hours!"

I groggily raise my head from my pillow the picture stuck on my face.

Olivia removes the picture from my face and starts examining my face.

"Did you take anything to make you so groggy? Lele if you are taking pills over this fucker I'll fuck you up!"

"No, no Oli. I was just really, really tired, exhausted actually. What time is it?"

"Its nine o'clock!"

"Are you serious?"

I sit up on my bed and bury my face in my legs. I can't believe I slept for that long. I guess when your depressed there isn't much you can do.

"Leah and Sabi are here."

"Really, an intervention Olivia? I'm fine!"

This is really making my blood boil.

"So your not taking anything?"

"Fuck No!"

"Then I want you to take this."

She pulls a box from behind her and hands it to me.

"A pregnancy test?"

"What on earth would make you think I need a pregnancy test!"

"Well for one thing, you've been throwing up out of the blue. Secondly, you are always tired. I don't care how depressed you are you are sleeping way to much. Lastly, when was your last period Lele? We usually get it around the same time and mine ended over two weeks ago. You haven't gotten yours have you?"

"You need to have sex to get pregnant. If you haven't noticed I haven't been active."

"You were with Ethan."

"Like a little over a month ago! He's gone! Plus we were safe! Condoms! I'm not pregnant!"

Olivia grabs the box from my hands and tears it open in front of me. She then rips the plastic and takes the stick out.

"March your ass in that bathroom and take that fucking test. If you thought Christian Grey was nuts then you do not know me very well! Now, go!"

I am surprised by her words and speechless. I do as I'm told and go to the bathroom. At least when this is done and over with I can prove how wrong she is and have a very self-satisfying in your face moment.

I head to the bathroom and follow the instructions on the box, easy peasy. I then head out the bathroom leaving the stick by the sink as I head over to see Olivia.

"There I did it! Happy!"

"Yes! Now lets sit here and wait."

As I sit with Olivia she holds my hand and squeezes it tightly. I can't help but laugh on the inside at how she looks more like the one waiting on the results rather than me!

"Okay Olivia you can release your death grip. Its been five minutes. Olivia…."

Olivia stares into my eyes nervously as I pull my hand out of her grasp.

"Let go!"

She finally releases me and I walk over to the bathroom. I then turn to address her.

"Really Olivia, wait and see how fucking wrong you are. Because you are wrong you are so buying drinks tonight!"

I head into the bathroom still talking with such arrogance.

"I wish I could take a picture of how fucking hilarious you look! I literally had to stop myself from laugh…..FUCK ME!

Olivia hears my body crash to the floor and comes running in to find me on the floor barely holding my composure. I grab onto her sweater and she pulls me into a hug.

"Olivia, please I can't breathe. I'm so scared! It can't be! I'm so scared!"

I sob uncontrollably, I believe more than when Ethan walked out of my life that day.

"I don't want to be alone! Oli please don't leave me I don't want to be alone!"

"Shhh…..Lele I will never leave you alone. Its going to be okay. Its going to be okay.

Leah and Sabi race into the room when hearing the commotion.

"Olivia is she….?"

"Yes."

We all sit on the bathroom floor while Olivia cradles me in her arms. My nails are embedded in her oversize sweater and I cry endlessly onto her shoulders. She strokes my head and tells me she is there for me and that it will be okay. I have a part of Ethan, a physical part of him inside of me now. I'm scared shitless yet this time rather than lose my sense of stability I've come to realize that people do love me. Olivia is here, Sabi is here, and Leah is here. This is all I need and I am no longer alone.

"Well, Miss Williams according to the ultrasound you are about six weeks. Congratulations."

Olivia holds my hand as Dr. Ryland types in notes on her computer.

"Olivia….I guess I'm going to be a mom."

There is such wonder in my voice.

I'm having a baby. My baby. Me and Ethan's baby.

Olivia has tears in her eyes and holds onto me tightly.

"I'm going to be an Auntie. Lele don't be scared. Leah, Sabi, and I will all be here for you! Hell we will even stop drinking to stand in solidarity with you!"

"You guys are sweet."

"Miss Williams everything seems to be going smoothly. I have enclosed a list of do's and don'ts. I expect you to adhere to them 100 percent. Now I think we have covered all bases this appointment. I have also given you your next appointment dates. If you should be in any extreme pain or have unexpected bleeding please go to the nearest emergency room. With that being said, I look forward to being here for you in this journey and if you have any questions, concerns please do not hesitate for one moment to come into my office."

"Thank you Dr. Ryland."

As she exits the room Olivia jumps around and squeals with happiness.

"You are going to be a great mother! Oh I can't wait to throw the shower and oh…we might have to get a bigger place but that's okay!"

She then pauses and turns to me looking at me thoughtfully. Her face has dimmed a bit.

"I know that me, Sabi, and Leah will always be there for you to get you through this but Lele, you have to find a way to tell Ethan."

I become enraged at her suggestion. As much as I want Ethan to know that he is going to be a father he probably won't care anymore. I can raise this child on my own.

"Ethan is gone. He isn't coming back Oli. He never made any effort to contact me. All the ways I had of contacting him, phone, email, its changed. He cut me off. I don't need him I just need us. We are our own family Olivia and this baby will be so loved."

"I'm just saying, he has a right to know. That's his child inside of you. It takes two to tango honey."

"Just let me take care of myself and the rest will just fall into place."

As I say this I still feel the sting of what happened with Ethan. Things won't fall into place. If anything Christian would probably say that I got pregnant on purpose. I need to focus on taking care of myself and my child. Eventually they will understand that.

2 months later…

"Leila may I see you privately in my office?"

"Why certainly Ms. Madrigal, right away."

I hang up the phone and Leah looks at me with a worried look on her face.

"What did you do?"

"Hopefully something that can be corrected and not that will get me fired."

"Good luck sweetie."

I mumble a thanks and head upstairs to Ms. Madrigal's office. Its not that Ms. Nayera Madrigal was an evil bitch its that she was just obsessed with perfection. If you weren't putting in 110 percent, she would notice. I hold my stomach and caress it gently before I walk in.

No matter what my little one I will always take care of you. Even if your mom loses her job I will support you. I love you, you give me strength just like your daddy did.

I open the door and take a seat in front of her desk.

"Ms. Williams, as you know I have been remodeling the gallery and moving things around quite a bit. A couple of the workers came to me bringing me some paintings they found stashed in one of the older janitor closets. It seemed someone used to pain in there and there name was written on their paintings. Your name actually."

I swallow a big gulp and feel my body become tense and hot.

"Ms. Madrigal I'm so very sorry! I promise that wasn't during work hours. It was a long time ago as well. I'm at a loss for words. I'm so sorry.

"Well there is only one thing I need to ask you to do."

Its going to be so embarrassing packing up all my stuff. Oh my little one I'm sorry.

"Yes Ms. Madrigal."

"I want you to paint more."

"Excuse me Ms. Madrigal?"

"Your work is striking, refined, and outstanding. I normally do not do this but you have a talent for painting and I want you to be a guest artist at my personal showcase at the end of this month. Tell me you have some more pieces."

I cannot believe this! Yes Yes! Finally retribution of some sort!

Ms. Madrigal thank you, thank you! I will not disappoint. I have other pieces…at my house…that I can bring to you. Oh thank you so much for this opportunity.

We discuss a little more, shake hands, and I make my way out of her office. I am elated at this! I will give her not 110 but 150 percent!

A couple of weeks later back in Seattle…..

Kate waltzed into Ana's room with gossip magazines and soup from their favorite deli.

"Since you are confined to your ivory tower today I have decided to bring you some sustenance."

"Aww thanks Katie. Ya Christian has to work very late tonight and feels safer with me at home so I'm just working from home today. Super fun. How is Ethan?"

"He has his moments. He is um getting ready to do some business in New York in a few days."

"Katie do you think they really fell in love?"

"Yes and I think your husband and my brother are stupid. Mia swears she has a chance again. Ethan's not ready to date. I know he still loves her."

"I tried talking to Christian but he wasn't having it."

"Hey what are ya reading there."

"I get the monthly art review. I enjoy it and sometimes Jose's stuff pops up in it."

"Let me see that, haven't talked to that dodo in a minute.

Kate scans the magazine.

"Hey Ana they have a showcase at the end of the month for Nayera Madrigal. Didn't you say you liked her stuff."

"I love her stuff. Christian bought me a couple of paintings from her last month."

"She is having a showcase at the end of the month. Here check out the picture. Her and some guest artists, Ronaldo Varona, Charisse De La Salle, Randi Resnick, and Leila Williams?"

Ana snaps the magazine from Kate and scrutinizes the picture that is definitely Leila.

"Kate, Katie, oh my goodness, please look carefully at Leila in the picture."

Ana looks hurt. Kate immediately snapped the magazine out of Ana's hands and stared at Leila's picture. Suddenly tears began to drop on top of Leila's picture and that of her protruding belly.
