Chapter 7
Ana stood and watched the horizon from the bow of the boat. She couldn't believe it. Here she was on a beautiful luxury boat called The Grace with Christian Grey setting up lunch. It was amazing.
Christian had picked her up early that morning, he'd knocked on her door himself and then told her Taylor wouldn't be with them. She was then given a ride in his sports car, a beautiful Audi R8 and he'd bought her here, to The Grace.
She'd been surprised to learn that Christian had never bought a woman who wasn't family on board. She was his first. He had been nervous, unsure of himself, so unlike the Christian Grey she had come to know and care for.
This was like a date… really like a date. Actually it was just a date in Ana's mind and in her own opinion it wasn't their first, Christian may have paid her to spend time with him but from what she had gathered he had wanted to spend time with her just didn't know how to ask her and feared rejection without payment.
The man was a mystery to her. Someone so arrogant and so confident could be so vulnerable in a blink of an eye. She couldn't wrap her head around it. Neither could she wrap her head around what Christian Grey was doing to her.
Anastasia had always feared relationships and sex. She hadn't understood why, probably because she just hadn't find the right person. However now she was intrigued, now she wanted to know what all the fuss was about and in her heart, she wanted to experience it, to understand it and to know it.
"Anastasia." Christian came up behind her startling her from her thoughts.
"Hey Christian." She smiled at him, his copper hair looking more red with the sun reflecting off it.
"I've laid out lunch, ready to eat?" He asked, Ana simply nodded, she was starving… something about sea air she guessed.
Christian had laid out lunch like a picnic. He'd put a blanket on the floor with some cushions, and laid out the food so that they could eat.
He took Ana's hand in his own and tugged her gently towards the feast prepared by Mrs. Jones. Christian was excited, he felt like a child and it wasn't just because he was on his boat. No, instead it was the company he was keeping that was making him feel giddy. Anastasia Steele had offered to be his friend. He didn't do friends, he did business relationships, transactions, yet here he was with a beautiful woman on his boat feeling lucky to have a friend who cared about him… yes, Anastasia cared about him, she had said so herself when she explained that friends were people who cared about each other.
And truth was, he cared about her too. He wanted to keep her safe, protect her, look out for her.
"So, this looks yummy." Ana stated as she sunk into the cushion.
"Well help yourself, eat whatever you want." Christian smiled handing her a plate.
She gratefully tucked in, the sea air having made her quite hungry. There was something she wanted to discuss with Christian, but she would do so after she had filled her tummy a little, she didn't want to fall out with him on an empty stomach but she knew she would have to discuss this before they arrived back in Seattle, if they argued then at least they'd have a decent chance of apologizing to one another while still on the boat with nowhere to go.
Not that she thought what she had to discuss would cause an argument, she was just aware of the possibility that was all.
Christian talked about his work, and the need to show Ana Grey House. She could see he was passionate about what he did and she liked that, she hated the thought of being caught up in a job you hated no matter what the pay. She knew some day she would like to not have the need to be an escort, pay her way on one job alone and a good job that she loved at that. However she knew that was far away, and until she got there, she would have to be an escort otherwise she wouldn't be able to pay the bills.
Ana told Christian about Ray, how he wasn't her real Dad but how much she loved and cared about him. She knew if anything with Christian developed then she would have to introduce them and knowing how protective Ray was of Ana, Christian needed to be prepared. That's how she learned Christian enjoyed golf and fishing, two things that Ray also enjoyed doing. It made her smile, they just talked casually and enjoyed each other's company with no stress.
"So I wanted to talk to you." Ana stated as she put down her empty plate, she was full up and now wanted to get Christian's thoughts on something.
"Ok, talk." Christian replied, also putting his own plate down so that Ana knew she had his full attention.
"So I kind of looked into Dominance and submission." Anastasia stated casually, Christian just stared, unsure what it meant that she was saying this, she was here, that was one thing, his tastes hadn't driven her away at least. "It intrigues me. I mean, there are some stuff I read that was seriously like what the hell?! But then other parts of it, just made me want to find out more."
"Anastasia did reading about BDSM turn you on?" Christian asked with a cheeky smile on his face.
"I wouldn't say that exactly." Ana replied blushing, she couldn't believe Christian had asked that outright. "But I wanted to read more."
"Ok?" Christian frowned, if it turned her on it was no big deal but he could see she wasn't willing to admit to that.
"I just found a lot of it hard to understand." Ana replied, her blue eyes peeking at him through long eyelashes. "I have no reference to start, I mean like in terms of sex. As a virgin I don't know what sex feels like, I don't know if it would even be something I like…"
"Ana." Christian stopped her, as she was becoming more erratic as she spoke. "Are you telling me you want to know what sex feels like?"
"It's not like I haven't wondered before. I just thought it would happen when it would happen. I would have a bad drunk experience, or meet the right person that I felt I wanted to give my virginity to… I just am twenty two and that still hasn't happened… I'm going to be the real life forty year old virgin before I know it…"Again Ana was becoming quite erratic when she spoke and Christian could tell that she was nervous and unsure of herself and unconfident in saying something she'd obviously been thinking a lot about.
"Anastasia are you hinting?" Christian asked, a teasing smile on his face.
"I…I guess so… I mean… it could be like a business transaction. You could take my virginity."
Christian gawped, he couldn't believe the word that she had spoken. She wanted him to be the person to give her first experience to her. He frowned, he didn't do vanilla. Then the words she used came back to him. 'Take my virginity' the word 'take' meant that it wouldn't be wholly vanilla… was that was she was really asking him for, that he dominate her as he wanted to by taking her virginity.
"There is one thing about submission that many people don't understand." He started carefully while Ana stared at him with pink cheeks and uncertainty dancing in her blue eyes. "That the submissive is always in control, the sub chooses what can and can't be done, whether he or she consents to the act or not." Christian stated causing Ana's head to tip to the side, she was studying him carefully. "Are you sure that this is how you'd like to lose your virginity Ana, by way of a business transaction?" He used her words as he liked them, he liked business transactions, he liked contracts.
"It would mean the decision wholly was mine, I would be in complete control of the situation, and it would be then with who I decided, someone I can trust, someone I cared about." Ana replied and there was the word 'care' once again.
Christian stood quickly and his hand extended to Ana, if this was what she wanted he would gladly give it to her. He didn't do vanilla but it couldn't be that hard, it was something he would figure out and in saying that Ana didn't have a clue, so if he fucked up a little she wouldn't know any better.
Nervously, Ana's hand slipped into his and he pulled her up smiling. He wanted to calm her and relax her and make this first experience pleasurable, he just hoped he would manage it.
Ana followed him inside the cabin of the boat. Neither of them spoke and neither of them knew that the other was just as nervous as they were feeling.
They may have only met just over a week before but Anastasia was glad Christian had come into her life. She wouldn't have claimed to have loved him but she did really care about him, there was something inside her every time he looked at her that made her feel all warm and fuzzy.
They hadn't even kissed yet. Christian rarely kissed his subs but Anastasia wasn't his sub, he would need to kiss her and relax her before turning her on and having sex with her. His head was a mess, he couldn't believe he was going to do this but there was a slight ulterior motive, Ana had clearly been turned on when reading about Dominance and submission.
"Wait here." He said before disappearing through the door to the left, thankfully he had found a little stash of Elliot's from when he had allowed him to use the boat for a weekend with some girl.
In the white walled bedroom cabin, Ana felt her heart pound hard within the walls of her chest. It was nerve-wracking but she was glad to be able to remove any stress or fear from what was about to happen.
She'd always feared losing her virginity after one to many with someone she didn't really give a hoot about. Now she wasn't, she was going to lose it sensibly, wholly her own decision, with none other than Christian Grey.
He looked deep into her eyes, looking for a sign of uncertainty. He couldn't see it. Her blue eyes were wide and fear filled but he could also see the excitement dancing there. She wanted this badly.
Slowly, he clutched the back of her head with his hand, before gently moving his lips to meet hers. He felt the breath she caught as her lips met with his and he sighed a little with relief when she didn't pull away. Her lips moved with his, in perfect synchronicity, almost as if rehearsed. He couldn't resist giving it a little bit more, his tongue sliding in through the gap into her warm mouth.
She clutched at his arms, right on his biceps, and for a moment he froze, he wasn't used to women touching him, his subs were not allowed to touch unless absolutely necessary, but within seconds he was kissing her again, unafraid of her touching there.
His hand pulled a little at her hair, they were grasping at each breath not wanting to stop the heated exchange but needing to breathe in order to continue it. Christian was trying to remain calm, not get to over excited so as not to put her off or get carried away with his usual stuff.
Ana was the one who was becoming over excited, when her hands grabbed at Christian's light blue tee he had to grab hold of her wrists and pull away, he couldn't allow her to touch him like that, no matter how much she wanted to.
"Easy tiger." He teased, not wanting to make a big deal of it , unsure blue eyes sparkled at him.
Christian's hands slipped down to the hem of Ana's sweater, he could see the nervousness in her but when he began to pull the lilac garment upwards she didn't hesitate or hinder him, instead, she helped him remove it and throw it away.
"Someone's excited." Christian chuckled softly. Ana's blush rose up her cheeks and to stop her from backing out or changing her mind, he quickly grabbed her little white tank and tore it up over her head, revealing her pink bra with white polka dots.
"I hadn't quite thought of dressing for the occasion." Ana muttered making Christian laugh.
"You have quite the smart mouth Anastasia." He said pulling her into him a little, she didn't reach to touch him again having been a little put off by his earlier rejection. "I like it." He breathed as his nose went to her hair. She smelled like raspberries.
"Christian…" Ana pleaded, she thought she would implode if he didn't hurry it up.
"Sit on the bed." He commanded, pulling away from her. Ana didn't think, she just did. Christian moved like a wild cat, fast but almost unseen. Before Ana could wrap her head around what had happened she'd lost her shoes and socks and her blue jeans were at her ankles being tugged from her feet.
She said nothing, just reacted. Christian was trying not to get to excited, he needed to be in control even if it was just vanilla and it wasn't just for his sake but Ana's too.
Ana was trying to convince herself this didn't mean anything but damn she knew she was wrong, regardless if this was the first and last time they ever were with each other in this way, she would always carry this moment in her heart as something special between herself and Christian. This was something she was willingly giving to him while begging him to take her.
"Lay back." He whispered, loud enough only for Ana to hear.
As soon as Ana's head hit the bed Christian pounced; he couldn't hold himself back any longer. Seeing Ana naked was doing things to him he couldn't have imagined. She reacted too, quickly grabbing his face between her hands.
They were like savages. Ana's body had taken control, her mind had gone blank. Lips and teeth crashed enthusiastically. Christian couldn't breathe; he couldn't think; he just did.
He managed to find the strength to drag his lips away from Ana's lips and down to the bare skin of her neck. A moan passed Ana's lips, she couldn't believe how good it all felt. Her wriggling underneath him was doing nothing for his self-control and he couldn't wait any longer to pull down her bra and grab one of her pert, pink nipples between his lips.
As he sucked greedily Ana's moans became louder and more erratic, she was completely lost in the moment, her body screaming out for more, begging him to take her and he would, in time.
When he pulled away Ana groaned in frustration, it made him laugh but her smile returned and lit up the entire room when she saw he was un-buttoning his jeans while kicking off his shoes. Before either of them could contemplate anything any further, a now pants-less Christian pounced and once again dragged a nipple between his lips, his fingers finding the other one.
"Oh Christian… please?!" Ana groaned, she was so frustrated, her panties felt sopping wet against her skin and there was an uncomfortable throb between her legs which she could only put down to her need for penetration.
When fingers found her panties she wriggled more, begging, pleading with Christian to finally touch her. He didn't waste time but surprised the hell out of her when he slid off the bed, grabbed her legs, pulled them over his shoulders and planted his lips… down there!
"Christian!" She gasped but wow it felt good. So good.
Christian couldn't believe how good she tasted, it was like her juices had been made for his taste buds. He licked and sucked greedily as if he was starving and this was what he needed. His teeth dragged along the hood of her most sensitive part and Ana called out and struggled against him, half of her desperate for more half of her wanting him to stop.
"Christian!" She begged, unsure she was going to be able to take any more of this.
His tongue swiped along her clit while he lowered one of her legs so that he could use her fingers. He'd barely entered his index finger when Ana began naturally rocking into him, pleading for more with her body alone. He had to give it to her and slipped in another before pulling them out and pushing them in to the same speed as she was moving.
"Christian… Christian… ohmigod Christian!" Her orgasm was loud, she was unable to control the echoing cries that tore from her throat.
While her body started to slowly come down from the high, Christian tore off his boxer shorts. He had to grab his pants where he'd hidden one of Elliot's condoms. He opened it, pulled it on as quickly as he could but carefully so not to break and plunged into her while she was still riding the high of the first orgasm. She screamed and grabbed onto his shoulders, Christian's hands held above her head, he was ruthless but so was she, it was like she was possessed, an animal, natural instinct in complete control.
Christian couldn't believe it, he had planned on taking it nice and slow but Ana didn't want it, she needed him to be fast and hard, not hard enough to cause any pain but hard enough to start satisfying the desire inside her.
She had barely calmed from her first orgasm her hips rocking in complete tandem to his, when he felt her insides clench around him. He couldn't hold on, even though he wanted to, he didn't want this moment to end.
"Christian!" She groaned loudly, another amazing feeling running through her body, one that was so foreign yet so right.
"Ana, Ana!" He grunted as his own body stiffened.
