Ana wakes up " Christian are you ok? Do you need something? What can I do for you?"
" Just lay back down and be with me for a little while longer. We are not in any rush if we want we can stay in bed all day. "
" Christian since when do you stay in bed all day? I have never gotten you to just lay around with me. "
" Ana turn on that TV and we can stay right here and make out."
" Really well you know making out means no sex. But don't worry big guy I know ways that don't require sex."
" I hope you didn't learn them from some high school punk. "
" Oh no sir, you see I met this man one time when I went to interview him and he was the sexiest and hottest guys I had ever met. I knew right away I want to be in his bed. One day after I did have him in his bed I was bathing with him because he gave me an A on oral skills. Here why don't I just show you. "
Ana lifts up the covers and before Christian knows it her lips have made contact with him and he lays his head back and moans. Yes she got an A and when it comes to this she will always get an A. He closes his eyes and just loses himself in the pleasure. They spend a little more time just making out no sex.
After a long while Ana looked over at Christian she smiled at him and just felt so happy. He looked so relaxed.
" Christian are you getting hungry or do you need anything? I know you don't like to skip meals. Let me go cook you something? "
Christian looked over at her smiled and said " I really don't want you to go anywhere I like just being here with you. If you get out of bed our day will have to begin and then I will have to share you. "
Ana moved closer to him and kissed him. Round two of the make out session but, this time it did lead to more than just that.
"Christian I think we do need to get you in the shower I have to change the bandages. Then we can wash up and go to the movie room and watch a movie or hang out here whatever you want. You will have me 100% to yourself today. "
" Ok, your right yes a shower might feel good for my muscles too. I should probably do some of the exercises first before we shower. Do you want to help me with them?"
" Christian of course I do. What would you like to start with your back or legs first."
After their shower Christian is sitting on the bed and Ana is drying him with a towel, and redressing the incision. She is happy to see that it is looking good. It makes her feel a little relieved. She just wants him to be ok .
" How is my back looking Ana? "
Ana smiles " Your back looks very good baby. I really think it's healing well. We go back to the see the surgeon next week so hopefully he has some good news. "
" Me too. I am really ready to go to Seattle. There is just to much for me to be doing than being on vacation for much longer. "
Ana looks at him and and says " Christian you are not on vacation anymore. You are not on vacation anymore baby. You are on medical leave. So it's about getting better now. We will go home when your body is better. You still can work from here. So don't push the doctors to let you go home. I don't want you playing the lotto with your health because I love you and want you around for a very long time."
" I know you do but I just feel so far removed from the business here. I feel like I have a better handle on it from home more than here. Plus I need to get you home and move you in fully with me. I don't want to lose you."
" Oh Christian you can be so silly. There is nothing that can happen where you will lose me. I can't wait to move in with you. I want to wake up in your arms and go to sleep in your arms all the time. Not just once in a while. But, I think Mrs. Jones and Taylor will need me to help them keep you from pushing yourself. You need to go slow and take it one day at a time. I can talk back to you and tell you to slow down in away that staff can't because they work for you. I work with you."
Christian laughs," Ana you are the only person I will let tell me to stop and just take a break. But, that means I take you with me and we take a break together. So baby, while I am on leave you are to. I need you with me everyday so I can heal they way I need to and you can be there to help me let off steam and tension. "
" Oh, Christian I will be there with you but, I will have to go back to work when we get home too. Or at least when you are feeling stronger. I do love you to much to leave you alone with yourself. Now, hold still so I can put some of the medication on and put the bandages on it has had some time to be exposed to the air."
" What do you want to do at your job ultimately Ana? I mean do you want to be senior editor ? I believe there is an opening for that at SIP. You would be great for it. Have you applied or spoken to anyone about it.?"
" No I haven't I am not sure I want to. I really have been rethinking what I need to do in my life right now with everything including my career. There is really some one or something that is more important to me right now. I think I should be somewhere else than work. I am not sure for how long. "
" Ana for how long have you been thinking about this. I thought you were heading in the direction that you wanted with work? If you are worried you won't be good enough baby you will. You have one of the best sense of a good read than anyone I have ever known. Can I ask what changed your mind?"
" Well, Christian the man of my dreams has had an accident and then he asked me to be his wife. I just feel I need to be with you and then when we are ready plan our wedding day. I want to be there for you Christian 100%. I don't feel advancing in my career is why I need right now I need you. "
" Ana I love you but, I don't want you to give up on your dream because of me. I want to support you in them and watch you get where you want to be. I know you are strong ambitious woman."
Ana moves over to Christian and sits in his lap and cover's herself with a towel so he will pay attention to her not other things. " Christian not just because of the accident but, I have been thinking about what I would want to be to you if I was to become your wife. Then you had your accident and you asked me to be your wife. You are my dream and my everything. I want to be Mrs. Christian Grey and be there to support my hard working husband. I need my time to be your wife before I jump into a career. "
Christian places his hand on her cheek. " Baby I love you and I don't deserve you. I know you are going to be the best wife any man has ever had and I am so glad I got you. I would love for you to just be mine and let me take care of you. Please if you are only doing this because you know how happy that makes me than don't do it for you too."
" Christian I am doing if for me too. You are my love and life and I don't feel I am giving anything up with this choice. I need to do this now. You once said you were devoted to me. Well Christian I am also devoted to you. Remember when we were at your parents Charity ball how it felt with me on your arm. You told me a million times. Well I want you to feel that always I want to always be on your arm. Now please before I start cry kiss me."
" Ana I love you. I don't know what I ever did but I am glad I have you. "
When Ana pulls away from kissing Christian she's crying and she feels so good inside and yes this is what she wants as soon as possible.
" Ok Christian let me help you get dressed and then we will go find some food. I love love you. Do you know how sexy your face is?"
" Really, my face? What is so sexy about it, It's just a face? "
" You have the sexiest little mole above your left eye that really turns me on. "
" Really? Well Miss Steele I better get you dressed before you never let me out of here. "
Ana gets up and finds some clothes for her and then picks Christian some clothes.
" Thanks baby. Before we go I want to confess something to you. Remember very early in our relationship when we danced to Witchcraft in my apartment. You jumped into my arm and gave me the sweetest kiss. I wanted to tell you I loved you. I just was so I have loved you since the day I met you. I just I just."
" Shh I know Christian. I know I love you too. I think once you get better we should have fun with ice cream again on your sheets. I loved that dance. I loved the ball all the dancing being held in your arms. I loved you holding me during the fireworks. I never want you to stop holding me. Now let me help you into your chair and we can go find some food. Maybe pancakes. "
" Well there you two are we thought you both died in there"
" No Kate we just needed to sleep in. How long have you all been up?"
"for a little while we went into town and shopped and things. Don't be mad but Elliot and I got tickets to leave tonight and head to New York I want to do some wedding dress shopping there. They have some of the best shops. "
" Kate no you can't shop with him. He can't see the dresses. I am suppose to go with you to do that. Can't you and I just go another time. I know of a great apartment in ew York and we could stay there free of charge. I am in really good with the owner. "
" Ana of course I want to take you but I just thought while we had the time off I could go this trip and see what they had and then we could plan a girl trip and really look."
'
" Fine. I am not happy about it I wanted to be with you the first time you looked. "
" Ana, baby come here for a second. Christian what is it honey do you need me to help you with something?:
" No baby I just want to ask you something. Why don't you and Kate take the jet and go to New York for a night or two look at some dresses and then come back here. I have Elliot and Taylor and everyone to help me. We will keep you posted so you won't worry about me. I promise to be a good boy. I will miss you terribly but you and Kate deserve this."
" Christian I just don't know I can't leave you like this. What if you need something what if you need me? What if?"
" Hey of course I will need you. I always do. Baby I want you to have fun and not always worry about me. I won't do anything stupid I want to heal up fast so I can marry you soon and have you forever. "
" Ana let's do it. Elliot will take good care Christian. We can have fun you can even look at some dresses. Please."
"Elliot you promise you will watch him and take care of him? This man is my love my life if anything else happens to him I will hold you responsible. "
" I promise. He will be just fine. I will put him in bubble wrap if I have to. "
" He will need his medicine and his bandages changed. He needs his pillows just right so he can sleep well."
" I can do you. I promise."
" Christian I just don't know I don't want to be away from you like this. Can we call your mom could she come back and watch you?"
" Ana yes we can call her if it will make you fell better. Baby you mean so much to me. I will make sure my pillows are right. If I can't sleep I will call you. Now please no more crying lets get my mom on her way. Let's get you fed and then you and Kate on your way. Come on let's go make some pancakes."
" Oh Christian are you sure?"
" Hush, yes I am sure. I am going to call my mom and you can find us some food."
" Ok. I- I will. "
Ana gets up and Kate and her walk into the kitchen and Christian heads into his study to call his mom. He sits at his desk for a minute and just looks at the phone. He knows he is doing the right thing but he will miss her like crazy. She needs can't let her know he is thinking like this she will use it as a reason to stay. He will be ok his heart will be in New York that's all.
" Hey bro. That was a nice thing for you to do. I can't believe you are letting her go. I mean you two are inseparable."
"I know neither can I. Don't give me to much time to think about it or I will change my mind. "
Elliot laughs and he picks up the phone and dials the Greys house.
" Hey mom it's Elliot, yeah yeah the big guy if fine. I think maybe he hits head harder than we thought though. Wait until what your baby boy has come up with now. Oh and apparently his wife to be doesn't trust me. He wants to send Kate and Ana to New York for a couple days to look at wedding dresses. But, she doesn't think I will fluff his pillows right. So she wants you to come here. Then she will go because he will be in good hands. Can you believe she has no faith in me."
" Elliot I can say I blame her. I am really surprised she is going. You say Christian suggested it. I find that hard to believe as well. Yes me and your dad will be there soon tell Christian we will use our jet. Since Ana will use his. "
" Mom it took like a year for us to even get her to agree to it and then another year for her to say yes. I told her I would put him in bubble wrap."
" Elliot that was mean Christian is in a delicate state right now and I am sure Ana is worried about him. So did he ask her? Yes mom he asked her and she is wearing that diamond as big as the moon on her hand. "
" Good she is so good for him. You tell my baby boy that mom is on her way."
" Ok mom see you in a bit."
" Christian is everything ok? We have pancakes ready baby. Come on let's eat. "
" Thanks baby everything is fine mom and dad are coming. Can you help me to the table."
"Yes." Ana says and she turns him around and pushes him to the table. She gets him some juice and fixes him a plate and sits down with her food next to him. She puts some fruit on top of his pancakes and then syrup and gives him a kiss on the cheek. Christian knows she is nervous about going. He needs to reassure her. He decides to just have some fun conversation so she can relax and eat. He starts to eat and he feels her hand on his lap yeah she is nervous she normally just rubs his back at the table. He takes his hand down and places it over hers and keeps it there. She is not eating much and he let's it go. He wants to tell her right there not to go that he needs her but he bites his tongue.
" What time did your mom say she would he here? "
" I am not sure she spoke with Elliot but you and Kate should leave when ever you are ready. I would like Sawyer to go with you."
" Yes of course. Christian I…"
" Ana it's going be alright I promise two days and then you hurry your cute self right back to me."
" Ok. But i don't have to .. Christian leans in and kisses her. Yes you do."
" Come Ana I will help you pack and then you can help me and we can go." Kate says as she gets up from her seat.
" Ok I am coming. Christian before I go with Kate do you."
"No I am fine. I love you. "
