Thanks for the reviews!

Ana's POV (the next day)

I woke up the next morning feeling relieved. Gone were the feelings of anger that I felt yesterday.

Despite the fact that yesterday wasn't exactly a good day, there were some happy moments. Christian and I decided that we will have our wedding next spring and it will be at his parents' house. Although I was a little weary at that idea, Christian reassured me that it will be no hassle on his mother, especially when it has to do with her son's wedding.

"She would be ecstatic when she hears the news. " Christian told me over dinner.

We decided that we will reveal this to the rest of the family during our Sunday family barbeque. In the meantime, we will try our best not to accidentally blurt out the news to everyone around us. Shouldn't be that hard…

Kate called me this morning with the idea of a girl's day with Mia. That should lift her spirits up! It should be a fun day and a true test to see whether or not I can keep a secret from the two women that I am very close to.

Christian liked the idea.

"I just feel bad for Sawyer. He will have to spend a good chunk of his day at a nail salon watching you three getting pampered and gossip." He said.

I laughed at that notion.

"I am sure he won't mind." I tell him. Probably not the most ideal thing to do on a weekend, but he gets paid to do it, so I guess it's not too bad.

I quickly change into a pair of jean shorts with a navy tank top and I pair all of that with simple black flip flops. My hair is pulled back in a pony tail and I don't plan on wearing any makeup.

I give Christian a quick kiss on the cheek before heading to the elevators with Sawyer.

….

We arrive at the Oasis nail spa in about 10 minutes. This nail spa is a very posh n place that has famous celebrity customers. I wonder if Mia used the Grey name in order to schedule an appointment here….

I walk into the nail spa and am greeted by the two women at the reception desk.

"Hi, I have an appointment with a few of my friends to get our nails done." I say.

"Your name, miss?" one of the women asks me.

"Im Ana Steele, but I am sure that the name should be under Mia Grey." I say to them.

The two ladies look at me for a second and smile. They know exactly who I am.

"Yes, your party has arrived. Right this way." One of the women shows me to the back of the salon where they have a private section closed off just for us. I walk in to see Kate and Mia, the two of them are already sipping on some champagne while trying to choose what color they would want for their nails.

Mia turns around and runs to give me a hug. Happy Mia is back!

Kate smiles and waves at me.

"You came just in time, Steele. Get your butt over here so you can choose a color." She says.

Within seconds, I am offered a flute of champagne and I make my way to where the other two are.

"I think I would rather do French tip on my fingernails and I want to do black on my toes." Mia says to one of the ladies who will be doing our nails.

"I want ruby red on both my fingernails and toes." Kate says. She sits down and grabs a nearby magazine.

I decide on white for both my fingernails and toes.

We all agree to get our toes done first.

"Mia, you are very upbeat and cheerful today. Can we safely say you moved on already?" Kate asks Mia.

"After crying my eyes out and watching some sappy romantic comedies, I realized that I can't just sit around and mope all day. I need to move past this. Have I moved on already? Maybe. Im in a good place right now surrounded by the people that I really care about and that's all that matters at this point." Mia says to both of us.

"When you say maybe, are you saying yes?" Kate continues to pester Mia.

"I'd rather not tell the journalist." Mia giggles.

Soon Sawyer walks in to check on us.

"Everything is fine, Sawyer. You can tell that to Christian." I reassure him.

"I know. Christian just wants me to check up on you every now and then." Sawyer says.

"God, he is so overprotective of you." Kate says. "You're at a nail spa with your two closest friends and yet he still thinks that you're in grave danger."

I don't say anything to that.

"Ms. Kavanaugh, Mr. Grey is worried that Ethan might show up and want to make amends with Mia. The security team has tracked down Ethan's phone and it has been located in this area. I am here to stop him from ruining your spa day." Sawyer said.

Kate said nothing to this and continued to flip through the magazine that she had on her lap.

"Ugh what does he want now? I don't want to see him. I've made it very clear by not replying to his texts or answering his calls." Mia said.

"Ms. Grey, I can assure you that you will not see Ethan even if he does show up." Sawyer says.

I've noticed that he is slightly blushing when he speaks to Mia. Mia has the same exact blush on her face.

Mia simply nods her head and Sawyer leaves soon after.

"So, when did you and Christian want you wedding?" Mia asks me. I am pretty sure that she is just asking that to not draw any more attention on her, but I know that something is up and I am sure that Kate noticed as well.

"Mia, is there something going on between you and Sawyer?" I ask her.

Mia hesitates to answer the question.

"I guess you two were going to find out anyway. The day that I was moving to my parents house, Sawyer admit that he has always liked me and that after all of this is over, he wants to take me out on a date." Mia says. She blushes even more and smiles.

"Mia! That's great news! Does Christian know? Do you have the same feelings for Sawyer?" Kate asks Mia excitedly.

"Christian has known from the beginning and according to Luke, he has given his approval already. Yes, I do have feelings for Sawyer. I've always had a crush on him, but I doubted that he felt anything." She says, her eyes gleaming with happiness.

I can't believe that Christian didn't tell me about this. He knew all this time and didn't say a word to me.

"Well, I am happy for the both of you." I say to her. And I mean it! It never occurred to me until now that Mia and Sawyer will make a great couple.

"Did you guys go out already?" Kate asks.

"Not yet. He plans to take me out somewhere after our Sunday barbeque." She says with excitement.

"Do you know where?" I ask.

"He didn't say where. But I don't want anything big. I just want to get to know the guy." Mia says.

At that point, all our pedicures are done and our nail ladies have started working on our manicures.

"Ana, you didn't answer my question yet." Mia said to me.

"Yeah, when is it Steele?" Kate asks.

"What are you two talking about?" I ask the two of them. I know exactly what they are talking about, I just wanted to annoy them a little bit. There is no way that they will get what they want out of me.

"You know exactly what we are asking about, Steele. Don't play games with us. I know that you and Christian have decided when the wedding will be. Now spill!" She implores.

"You are right. We did decide on when it will be, but I can't tell that to you now. " I tell them.

"Why so secretive? Tell us now!" Mia demands.

"I wish I could, but I have made a promise not to tell everyone until we are altogether as a family." I explain to them.

"That means we will know at the Sunday barbeque?" Kate asks.

"Yes, you two will just have to wait." I giggle.

"Ugh fine, if you insist." Mia says.

"I honestly can't wait until my wedding." Kate says. "I have already spoken to my mom about the wedding dress designs and as we speak she is designing one for me."

Leslie Kavanaugh's wedding dress designs were amazing. I certainly cannot see what she will do for her daughter's dress.

"I was thinking that the color scheme of the wedding will be grey, white, and pink. The bridemaid dresses will be grey and all of you will have pink rose bouquets. I want you all to be barefoot because we are getting married on a beach and I doubt that anyone wants to wear heels in the sand." Kate says.

Although my wedding will be before Kate's, she has definitely put more thought in hers than I did.

I think after we announce it at the barbeque, I will have to put more thought into it. I know what I want, I just have to think of the minor details.

"Kate, that sounds beautiful. I cannot wait!" Mia exclaims with delight.

I am glad to see that everybody is happy. Our nails are done and we all make our way back to our homes. We need to get ready for the barbeque. Christian said that we can bring our bathing suits since there is a pool that we can all take advantage of. I decide to wear a simple black bikini with a matching terry coverup. Nothing fancy because I want to be comfortable at the same time.

I really wanted to tell Mia and Kate about when my wedding will be, but at the same time I am glad I didn't. I want everyone to find out at the same time. It will be more special that way and no one will feel as though they were the last people to hear the news.
