Hi everyone and thank you for patience. I hate when I get an idea for a story in the middle of the night while I'm trying to sleep. This particular story has been with me for over a week and it refuses to go away, that is what caused the delay of my starting on BOOK II of "Hanging at The Catch."
My new story is called "Yes Your Honor." Please check it out when you have a moment, there is NO CHEATING AND NOBODY DIES and you know that all my stories will ALWAYS have an HEA! :D
BOOK II
CPOV
"Ana, please baby. Oh God you feel so damn good Firecracker." I moan as my Firecracker straddles me.
"Do you like that Christian? Yes, I like that too...very much."
"I've waited so long for this baby..."
"Me too Christian, me too...oh you feel so good..."
"What's going on here? Ana, get off of him, you belong to me!" Noah shouts.
"Noah, I'm sorry. You're right, I do belong with you...I...I'm so sorry Christian, I have to go..." Ana says as she jumps off of me.
I sit up quickly, "No Ana, you're mine now! Please don't leave me!"
I'm jolted from my dream that transcended into a nightmare...Ana left me for Noah.
Get a grip Grey, they broke-up, you saw them, you heard them.
Fuck!
The dream was so fucking real. I could actually feel Ana on top of me...that's when I realize that I was jacking off in my sleep.
Shit! I'm pathetic!
Yeah but you still keep your hand on your dick don't you?
Why not? I haven't had any action, the only action my dick has seen is from my fucking hand.
Shit!
I'm going to have to start taking my hand out on dates now. My fucking hand is going to think I'm taking advantage of it! Oh Christ, I know I've gone crazy now! I'm talking to myself and thinking about taking my hand on a date!
Fuck this! I need to get to practice!
APOV
"Christian, may I have a glass of milk please?"
"Of course Firecracker, coming right up." Christian says as he heads towards the fridge.
How the hell did I ever get so lucky? I really don't understand.
All I know is I had the worst break-up ever with my boyfriend Noah, who also happened to be my best friend and now I have a new boyfriend who is not only sexy as hell, he's warm, gentle, caring, kind, funny and did I mention sexy?
"Here's your milk Ana." Christian says as he finishes serving me breakfast in bed.
He walks back into the bedroom and he's buck naked! He then proceeds to slowly pour the milk down his sexy as fuck body! What the fucking hell?
I'm jolted awake buy the sexiest wet dream! I suppose milk really does a body good, or in Christian's case it does a body sexy!
Shit! I wish I wasn't jotled awake...what a wonderful dream. I jump out of bed craving a cold glass of milk.
I feel as though I'm living my life in a daze. Breathing in, breathing out, wake up, eat, class, practice, eat, sleep and wake up again.
That's how it's been these past two weeks, I've been so depressed but I try to push forward and move on. I see Christian at practice and he hardly says a word to me. Not only have I lost Noah but I also feel as though I've lost Christian as well. It's not as if we had a real relationship or anything, though he did make it perfectly clear that he wanted 'something' with me.
I don't know what to do. I mean if you think about it, I'm not in any shape to start-up a new relationship. It's much too soon for me. Having said that, I don't think there's anything wrong with Christian and I being friends. I would definitely have to take things very slow though I don't know if Christian understands the word 'slow.' He seems to go from zero to one thousand in a split second!
Maybe I'll talk to him today after practice and see what he thinks.
CPOV
I'm sick of rowing practice! I'm glad it's over for today! I don't need to practice anyway! I'm the fucking best and everyone knows it! The only good thing about coming to practice is seeing my beautiful Firecracker.
That's all gone to shit now!
It's been two fucking weeks since Ana and Noah have broken up and I'm going ape shit crazy! Is there any type of fucking rule book to dating that states when you are allowed to move on after a break up and start a new relationship?
When am I allowed to fucking broach the subject of dating?
You?! Dating?! Give me a break Grey! You don't date you asshole! You fuck! Hard! That's all you do!
Maybe I should look this shit up on-line. There might be some sort of guideline for the 'do's' and 'don'ts' of break-ups.
What the fucking hell has happened to me? Since when do I care about 'guidelines' or 'do's' and 'don'ts'!
Ana has happened to you, you dumb shit! Ever since she came into your life your world has turned upside down!
I've been watching her from afar every damn day, she looks so sad, so lost, so confused and so damn hurt.
I fucking hate that she's feeling so hurt over the break-up with Shepherd. That means that she really cared for that fucker.
Will she ever care for me like that?
Not if she figures out that you have a monster inside of you. You let that beast go when you're with her and you will lose her forever you fucked up piece of shit!
I shake those thoughts from my mind.
I can't take it anymore, I have to speak to her, guidelines of dating be dammed! Shit! I better hurry up and put these oars away before she leaves!
I turn quickly and BAM!
I ran smack into Ana and knock her on her cute little ass.
APOV
"Hey!" I shout as I land on my butt.
"Shit! I'm sorry Firecracker. I didn't hear you behind me." He says as he lowers himself and extends his hand. Christian pulls me up with such strong force that I'm practically thrown against his taut muscular torso.
Mmmmmmmm, his body is nice and warm and how I would love to nuzzle his chest.
"Ana, I'm talking to you. Hello?"
Shit! Get a grip Steele! Christian is talking to you!
"Oh, yeah. Sorry about that. What did you say?"
"I asked if you're ok Ana? You feel pretty hard."
"Yes, I'm fine." I say as I try to shake off thoughts of Christian's happy trail that still linger in my mind. I back away from him and proceed to walk towards my room as I say, "Thanks."
"Ana wait a minute." Christian says as he stops me from walking he grasps my arm and makes me turn to face him. My God he is so beautiful. I've never seen anyone that can look beautiful and gorgeous and hot and strong and sexy all rolled up into one.
I don't know how to explain Christian's looks. He's beautiful in the male sense of the word but he's very much a strong man as well. He's sort of metro-sexual without going through the grooming process.
His copper-colored locks shine brightly in the sun, his eye brows are shaped to perfection with a natural shaped arch, he has the long lashes and those eyes...oh help me Lord, his eyes are...well, I cannot put into words the grey color of his eyes, they tend to shade light and dark depending on what he's wearing. I look as his lips and I recall how soft they felt against mine. His lips are soft and full. I wonder what it would feel like to nibble on his lips.
Geez Steele! You and Noah have only been apart for two weeks and your already day dreaming about another man's lips!
I try to focus but I cannot, I go back to his beautiful eyes and his eyebrows. Perhaps he does get his eyebrows threaded. They are much too perfect to be shaped that way naturally.
"Ana, please answer me. That wasn't easy for me to say you know and it doesn't help that you're just standing here staring at me with a blank look on your face. I can't tell what you're thinking and it's driving me nuts."
Oh shit! How long have I been 'checked out?' What the heck did the Adonis say to me and how can I answer without him knowing that I've been lost in his beauty.
I've got it! I'll just ask him a question and see if I can find out what he said to me. What should I ask him?
"Answer me Ana, please."
Think of something Steele, anything for Pete's sake!
"Christian?" I say tentatively...
I hear Christian let out a deep breath, "Yes Ana?"
Geez, I'm torturing him with my cluelessness and he has no idea!
"Are you eyebrows naturally shaped that way or do you get them threaded?" I regret the words as soon as they leave my mouth but that was the first thing that I could think of, if you can call it 'thinking!'
Christian looks at me and I can see many emotions running through him. He raises his perfectly arched nicely shaped eyebrows at me and I see that he's shocked, angry and then amused.
He takes a deep breath to speak. Let's see if I can read him as well as I think!
"Excuse me?"
Well, that remark can be considered 'shocked.'
"What the fuck!?"
Oh yeah, that's 'angry!'
"Oh Ana, you're nothing if not amusing Firecracker!" Christian says as he chuckles.
Ding! Ding! I should win the lotto for that one! I guessed right on the button as he even used the word 'amused!' Score one for Ana!
"And how do I amuse you Christian? Do tell." Please help me out, please help me out.
"How do you amuse me? Are fucking kidding me Ana?! I just told you that I've been doing my best by trying to stay away from you because of your break up with Noah and I tell you that I can no longer stay away because I'm drawn to you!"
Geez Louise, he's panting! He said all that and I missed it? Shit! What else did he say? What else did I miss?
He reads my silent thoughts and continues his rant. Focus Steele focus!
"It's like you're a fucking magnet and I am steel dammit! Yes I know that's fucking corny but it's all I got and I want to get to know you better and I would like to start by taking you out to dinner tonight on our first official date God Dammit!"
He stands there staring and panting as he takes another breath. Holy shit, there's more he wants to say? Brace yourself Steele!
"Then you come off somewhere out of fucking left field and you want to know about my damn eyebrows?! Really Ana?! Really! I know I call you 'Firecracker' but you are the only one that can light up my fuse woman! You have no fucking idea!"
Whoa! Well that was a shit load of information that Christian has thrown at me. What do I say? What do I do?
Say you'll go out with him and then jump his bones! That's what you want! That's what we both want! Do it dummy!
"Christian," I begin slowly. "I would like very much for you to take me out to dinner only I have one teeny tiny request."
"Anything Ana, anything!" Christian says as he flashes me his signature smile.
"Well, actually it's two requests."
Christian nods.
"Can we go back to that burger place and will you pick me up on your motorcycle?" I look up at him and smile.
"I think that can be arranged Firecracker." He says with a sly grin. Mr. Gorgeous has regained his composure.
"Cool!" I exclaim. "What time should I expect you?" I ask as I try to contain my excitement.
"Is seven o'clock ok with you? I have a late class tonight." Christian says.
"Yup, that works for me." I say as I stand on my tip toes and kiss his cheek.
I hear Christian's slight gasp as I back away and head back to Grey Hall looking forward to what the future holds for me.
CPOV
I did it! I fucking did it! I asked my Firecracker out on a date. How the hell did I get here? Shit!
That Firecracker has me wrapped around her finger and I find that I enjoy the feeling. I think I'm whipped for this girl! I think I'm happy! Who would've thought? Me, Christian Trevelyan Grey, son of a crack whore is happy!
My Firecracker gives me the sweetest kiss on the cheek and I fucking explode inside. Firecracker is right! Shit! I hope she didn't hear my breath hitch when she kissed me!
This is a foreign feeling. I like it and I like what she does to me. I feel young, I feel my age, a young carefree nineteen year old.
I think of Ana. My beautiful Firecracker, she's such a free spirit, she has her entire future ahead of her. I know she'll be successful in whatever field she chooses. She has that desire inside of her, a need to be the very best! I can see it in her as well as I see it in myself, though we both maybe aiming high for different reasons.
She's doing it for her parents, I know that. I'm doing it because I'm trying to escape the ugliness of my past. There is no way in hell that I will ever go back there!
Can we succeed together? Will we be together? Do we have a future together?
Why am I even thinking about all this shit? We haven't even had our first official date and I'm turning into Mia again!
Fuck me!
I need to get it together. Next thing you know I'll be picking out a fucking China pattern and ordering a subscription to "Modern Brides!"
I need to row again, just me and my fucked up thoughts. I need to release some of the pent-up sexual frustration that has been building up inside of me since I met Anastasia.
APOV
I'm having dinner with Christian! I'm filled with nervous excitement! A part of me really wants to get to know him and see if we are compatible, the other part of me feels guilty for even thinking about compatibility after my recent break up with Noah.
Then it hits me again...Noah, my beautiful Noah. I really did love him, I still do love him, just not in the way that I feel like when I'm with Christian.
Whoa! What am I thinking? Comparing my feeling from Noah with how I feel about Christian? That isn't right at all!
I suppose that's one of the differences between Noah and Christian.
Noah makes me feel safe and loved. I'm at peace, I'm relaxed, I'm in a zen-like state with Noah and I like that feeling.
Noah also happens to be very good-looking, he has movie star quality looks and I've seen the way the girl look at him. He has a beautiful body and oh those sea green eyes.
I miss him already but not in the way that I miss a boyfriend, I miss his company, I miss his smile, I miss his sense of humor, I miss his friendship. Noah made it very clear that we will always be friends and for that I am extremely grateful.
If Noah had cut me off completely I would be shattered. He's the only real family that I have and I can't lose him. A part of me feels very selfish because I know how much our break-up hurt me, I cannot begin to imagine how much it hurt Noah, especially because he made it clear that he's still in love with me.
My thoughts then go to Christian. I remember the first time I saw him. The 'Walking Tree' the 'prick' that was smoking, the one guy that saw me fumbling with my oars and didn't bother to offer a helping hand.
It wasn't that long ago but if you would have told me that The Walking Tree would have 'feelings' for me I never would have believed it. I still have trouble believing it now even though he's told me often enough.
Christian Grey, he's so unlike Noah who makes me safe, peaceful and calm. Christian is a complete contradiction.
Christian has an edge to him, he's reckless, agitated...it's as though there's something building up inside of him...it's waiting, waiting, waiting to escape and break free. It scares the hell out of me and I ashamed to say that it also turns me on.
Christian is beautiful. He has a presence about him. A strong quiet confidence, he commands and demands your attention without realizing it. There's just something about him, he walks into a room and everything and everyone stops to admire the pretty.
His face, his eyes, his lips, his body...oh dear God that happy trail. I'm getting moist just thinking about him.
Yes, Christian is very different from Noah.
I lose all my senses when I'm around Christian and I feel so out of control! I love the feeling of not knowing what's going to happen. I like seeing Christian that way as well. I get the feeling that he doesn't like it though. He seems more like he wants control, he needs control, he craves control and somewhere deep down inside of me...I fear what will come from that type of need.
I shake those thoughts from my mind, I'm thinking very deep at the moment and we've not had our first official date! Geez! Look at the time! I've got to get ready! Shoot!

Thanks to those of you who have mentioned checking out my FB page and friend requesting me. I have some really good visuals that go with my stories. There's a particularly "HOT" photo of Christian pouring milk all over himself in Ana's wet dream! Sluuuurrrrp! :P
Cheers,
Rosie :D
