The next morning as Ana wakes she sees the Sun is shining and it looks like a gorgeous day. She wonders about Kate is she home or still out. She gets up to make some tea and then start to get ready for a day of shopping. Then a dinner with Christian and he promised it would be romantic and just the two of us. When Ana walks out to the living room Kate is there and up drinking her coffee.

" Well good morning sleepy head. I looked in on you last night to tell you I was home but you were out cold. Are you ready for our big day?" Kate asks Ana as she walks over to the kitchen. " Kate yes I am ready I know shopping is normally not my thing but, I am excited for pend this trip. I am excited that we get to spend two weeks together having a great time with our guys." Kate looks at Ana and agrees. " Come on lets finish our drinks and get ready to go., Kate says"

They sit on the couch and sip there coffee and Tea and just laugh and talk about life and love.

" So what did you and Christian do last night? " " Well he had Symphony tickets so we went to dinner and then went there. The music was beautiful I had a lovely time. What about you? Kate laughs

" It was no Symphony for us. Eliot would never go for that he took me out to a club to see a local band. Lots of fun. Eliot says I cant keep you out to long shopping because Christian is taking you for a private dinner for just two. What do you think that is about?

" No Kate its not what you think. Christian likes to just have me to himself sometimes he says he doesn't always like to share. Since we will be going away with you all for the next two weeks. He probably just wants us to have some alone time. " Kate rolls her eyes and Ana and says

"Ok if you think so but, I am not sure he is head over heels for you and one day he is going to ask you to be his wife. I know you secretly want that too."

Ana gets up and puts her tea cup on the table. " Ok Kate well, I am going to get ready so we can spend some money. "

When Anna is in the shower she thinks about what Kate said. She knows she is right. Ana would love one day to be Mrs. Grey but, she is not going to ever bring that up to Christian he has spoke about them having a life together and they have both laughed and talked about plans. But not wedding plans. Ana doesn't want to be one of those girlfriends who keep asking when I am I going to get a ring. When and if Christian proposes she wants it to be not because he felt pressure. Plus they have only been together for about 1 year and a half.

Ana and Kate quickly get ready and head out to the shops. Ana's phone vibrates. She takes it out and sees a txt from Christian. " Good morning beautiful. I hope you and Kate have a great day shopping. Remember anything you want and use the card I gave you. I am going to my study to work for a couple hours this morning then Eliot and I going for a hike. I miss you see you tonight. Love C. As Ana is reading the message she can't help but smile she is just so caring and I am lucky. She quickly types back a message as Kate drives them to the mall.

" Good morning beautiful yourself. I miss you too. I love you please don't work to hard you need time to relax. Have a great hike, Dress warm it is cold out today. See you tonight. Love you A. forever.

When they get to the mall the parking lot is a mess. Its December and of course the Christmas season is in full swing. When Kate finally is able to park they make their way into the mall. As the time passes Ana and Kate have found so many cute outfits.

" Well Kate I think maybe we should stop and get some lunch or something to eat so we have strength to continue." " Sure Ana but we need to go to one more store. " Kate leads Ana into a small boutique with many beautiful dresses in it. " Kate what are we doing in here? " Ana I need you to look in the right pocket of your jacket. I think there is a something in there".

Ana does what she is told and reaches into her pocket. She pulls out a note she opens it and begins to read. Ana, Look around this shop and find yourself the most beautiful dress I have one in mind but, you pick what you like. But, I would love to see you in something strapless and royal blue. Love Christian forever.

Kate did you know about this? Yes I did we are going to go somewhere formal on vacation so we are suppose to get dresses and shoes you know the works. Christian didn't want to tell you because he knew you would ask him what you should get. I told him he needed to tell you something or we would be forever because you always look at things and say I hope Christian will like this? "

Ana laughs she knows Kate is right. Well he did give her an hint on the color and style. She looks around the store and sees some blue dresses in the back corner.

" Kate my note mentions Royal blue so I am heading over here. " Kate shakes her head. " Ok lets look around and meet up and try them on. Kate answers They both head around the store.

Ann starts looking through the dresses. She is taken aback by the price of dresses. But she knows Christian would tell her price is not an option. As she is looking through the blue gowns she sees one of the dresses has a note attached to the tap it simply says pick me. She smiles and knows this is Christians pick. Of course it is just the right size. She takes it from the rack and goes in search of Kate. Kate has found a red dress that has a very low back. When they find a sales associate to try the dresses on.

She looks down at Ana's dress and says, Miss Ana Steele? Ana looks at the girls she has never seen her before in her whole life. " Yes I am Ana Steele. How do you know me? The girls looks at her and laughs " Oh no ma'am its the dress I will be right back,She comes back carrying a bag and shoes with her. These are the items that were picked for you to match that dress. " Ana smiles and turns to Kate.

He is so over the top he thinks of everything." Kate rolls her and laughs " Of course he does. "

They go in the fitting rooms Ana looks in the bag she finds the most beautiful sapphire earrings bracelet and necklace. There is a note attached. Baby these will bring out your eyes. She smiles. Next she finds a bodice piece thigh highs and straps. With of course another note. " I look forward to you being my desert. " She then turns to the shoes. She opens the box and finds the most gorgeous pair of blue heels she has ever seen. She sees the designer label and rolls her eyes Christian I love you. She begins to put the items on and everything fits perfectly. Her and Kate walk out to show each other their choices.

" Wow Ana you look beautiful, the over the top bastard got you a whole outfit. What a control freak. " Ana darts her eyes at Kate. " Kate he is not like that he just wanted me to have something beautiful. " When they go to check out Ana finds that all her things have already been paid for. She looks at Kate as they step out of the store. Ok , Lunch? Kate looks back at her " Yes.".
