"Ready to go to Bellevue for lunch with my parents, baby?"

"Yeah." Why am I so nervous? I've already met his parents. In my panties!

In the elevator on the way down to the parking garage, we are all hands and tongue. Grinding onto each other. We're like horny teenagers that can't seem to get enough. You would think after last night and this morning, we would be sated. But I guess not. It's like we're addicted to each other. Finally in the parking garage. Christian opens the passenger door to his R8 for me. I notice Taylor and Sawyer getting into an SUV to follow us.

It was a long drive but we've finally made it to his parents beautiful house. I still can't believe this place. The first time I saw it, I thought it was great. But today. Today it seems... intimidating. Perhaps, because now it belongs to my boyfriend's parents.

"I cannot believe you grew up here." I say as he turns off his R8. Gosh, I love this car!

"It's just a house. Don't think too much about it." He gets out. I take a deep breath, preparing myself.

He opens my door. I take his offered hand. We're walking up the front steps when the door swings open. Dr. Grey stands beaming at us. She looks at our joined hands and if possible, her smile widens.

"Ana! Christian! I'm so glad you made it. Mia has been going nonstop talking about you two."

Just then we hear her.

"Are they here?!" She squeals seeing us walk in. "Ana!" She hugs me. "It's so great to see you again, officially with Christian now."

"It's great seeing you again, as well."

"Hello to you too, Mia." Christian says.

She waves him away. She takes me into a sitting room. I look back to Christian but he has a megawatt smile, smiling at us.

"He's never brought a girl home before." Mia whispers excitedly.

We've finished lunch. I haven't been able to resist touching Anastasia throughout the meal. It's like she's my drug and I'm addicted. I need more and I can't ever have enough. Mia, Elliot, Katherine, Anastasia, and I are now outside in the backyard talking. I, per usual, can't keep my eyes off of my beautiful girl. I notice she keeps glancing at me. I'm standing next to Elliot as the girls are sitting at the table talking. This feels... good, right, normal. I take a swig of my beer. Elliot starts laughing. What's so funny? Nobody said anything.

"Christian. Kate told me about Ana taking down Sawyer. What's up with that? You hire him to protect her but he's the one that needs protecting. From her. How's he going to protect her if he can't even take her?"

"It was a misunderstanding. He was caught off guard. Everyone makes mistakes."

"How was he caught off guard? She kneed him in the balls." He laughs.

"Well, if you and Anastasia went at it. You wouldn't think she would be much of a challenge, would you?"

"I don't believe it. She kneed him in the balls, dude. That's a disqualification right there. No ball injury. I could take her." He says confidently.

"Her father taught her and Katherine self defense." I let him know.

He huffs out and takes a drink of his beer. "I could handle her." He puts his beer down. "Hey Ana! Come beat me up."

"What?" She looks so cute. Both brows raised, eyes wide.

"Kate told me about you and Sawyer. I don't believe you can take me down. That is if you don't cheat and knee me in the balls."

"I'm not fighting you. You're crazy." I go sit next to My Beauty.

"I don't want to fight. I want you to show me your skills. I don't think you can take a man down like Kate and Christian seem to think. And without hitting Sawyer with the money shot. I don't think you would of taken him either."

"No."

"Why not? I wont hurt you. They said your dad taught you self defense. I want to see it. I don't believe it."

"Then ask Kate to demonstrate. She was taught as well."

"No way. I want to see it from you. Come on."

"Go kick his ass Steele." Katherine encourages my girl. "Besides, it's been awhile since Ray gave me a lesson. I'm rusty."

"Fine." She gets up.

They go out into the yard. We all get up, as well. To watch Elliot about to get his ass kicked by a girl.

"No kicking me in the balls, little lady."

"Okay."

"Elliot. If you hurt her. I will kick your fucking ass. Do. Not. Hurt. Her." I warn him. "I'm serious."

Elliot is in a fighting stance. Anastasia is just standing there, with her arms down. It's rather funny, watching this display. Elliot's not a huge guy. But like Sawyer, he is compared to my Ana. We're all just watching and waiting as nothing happens.

My mother comes out of the house. She stands next to me. "What is going on? What are those two doing?"

"Elliot insists Anastasia show him what she's got." She gives me a look, not understanding so I explain.

My father comes out to see what's going on, as well. They still have not moved.

"What are they doing?" Carrick asks us, seeing Anastasia and Elliot not moving.

"Elliot, you leave that poor girl alone before you get hurt." My mother tells him.

"I wont hurt her mom. I just want to see what everyone's going on about."

"I said nothing about you hurting her son."

My mother explains to my father what is happening. Still no movement.

"What are you waiting for Ana? Come on." Elliot says.

"It's self defense you idiot! You have to go after her first." I yell out. "Moron." I mutter.

They're still just standing there. Nothing happening.

Mia yells out. "What's the matter Elliot? Are you scared of a girl, half your size?" Taunting him.

"Shut up! I'm trying to concentrate." Yeah, that's what you're doing.

Still nothing happens. Anastasia has had enough. She starts walking back to the patio, facing us, her back to Elliot.

"If you're just going to stand there. I'm going to-"

She's cut off by Elliot grabbing her from behind. She stomps on his foot, elbows him in his side, grabs his hand, twisting it and flips him over her. We are all standing here, with our jaws on the ground, eyes wide, at what we just witnessed. We're all surprised. Except Katherine.

We're broken from our starring, hearing Anastasia say. "Oh my god! Elliot. I'm so sorry." She bends down to make sure he's okay.

He still hasn't moved. He's laying on the ground, groaning from pain. My mother, Mia and Katherine run over to him.
I am laughing my ass off at Elliot. My dad joins me. The girls finally get Elliot to his feet.

"Gees, Ana!" Elliot rubs his back.

"I said I'm sorry. But to be fair, you did ask me to."

"Oh my gosh! I can't believe you took my brother down Ana! I mean- Wow!" Mia says, jumping around like a boxer. "Your dad taught you to do that? Can you teach me some moves? That was amazingly awesome!"

"Yeah, my dad taught both Kate and I. But they have women's self defense classes everywhere. My dad just went a bit further with me." She gives a small smile. The knowing smile Katherine returns is now mine.

Katherine, as always coming to her friend's need, changes the subject. "Hey, let's go swimming."

I understand now all the diversions and probing on our date was to protect her friend, not to irritate me.

"That's a great idea!" Mia falls for it.

The girls go change. My mother comes over to me.

"It's great to see you like this Christian."

"Like what?"

"Happy."

"I am happy, mom. She makes me very happy."

"I can see that. And I can also see you make her just as happy in return."

"I love her mom. I want to be with her and only her for the rest of my life. She's the one. My one. My one and only. My everything."

"Oh Christian! Now you're making me happy!" A tear falls down her cheek. I wipe it away.

"Then why are you crying, mom?"

"Happy tears, darling." She waves it off.

I wrap my mother in an overdue, deserving hug. She gasps in shock. Not knowing what to do with her hands, she keeps them at her side.

"It's okay, mom." I say. "I'm okay."

Then I take her hands and wrap them around my lower back. It's uncomfortable, but it's just not painful.

"Oh, Christian. I've waited twenty-four years to hug you, my sweet, sweet boy."

I hug her tight and kiss her head, I walk in the house to change.

Walking inside, I hear her say to my father. "He's going to be alright. He's finally happy. She's healing him, Carry. That sweet beautiful girl, is healing him."

I smile. She is. She is healing me. And I her.


APOV

I'm having a lot of fun at Christian's parents house. His mother is a very nice lady. Although, every time I catch her eye, she beams at me. I'm not sure what that's about.

We're all enjoying the weather. The girls and I poolside. Kate and Mia are laying out in the pool on rafts. I have my feet in the water, kicking lazily, leaning back on my elbows when Christian and Elliot come out to swim with us.

"Pay back time, Ana Banana!" Elliot says.

I look up and see him coming for me. I stand up.

"Elliot! Haven't you had enough?" His mother warns, watching us at her patio table, drinking her fresh lemonade. "Leave Ana alone. I'm not on-call tonight. I'd like a break from work."

He ignores her, still coming for me. I back away, facing him.

"What are you going to do?" Keep them talking Ana. It's ingrained in my head.

"Just toss you in." He nods to the pool.

"Why would you want to do that?"

He shrugs. "Pay back." Then he charges for me.

I squeal. I take off running. He's chasing me around their yard. He may be faster than me. But I'm smaller and can dodge him easily. I run to Christian, thinking he'll save me. But the look on his face says otherwise. So I stop just before I get to him. I'm standing in the middle, between Christian and Elliot.

"Christian, are you going to save me?" I pout and bat my lashes.

"It's just a little fun, baby."He chuckles. "Are you going to come quietly?"

"Do I ever?" I raise my brow.

He looks surprised at first then smirks. Elliot starts laughing hysterically. I glance at Dr. Grey. And yes, she heard as well. I blush and bite my lip.

Christian pounces. I turn but Elliot is behind me. I dodge him and run. Christian comes up behind me. He's faster than Elliot. I look over my shoulder and scream. Christian is so close. I turning around to give up. He tackles me, lifting me off the ground. He turns me so my back is facing him. He wraps his arms around me, grabbing my boob in the process. Elliot grabs my feet. They carry me towards the pool. I'm trying to fight against them, laughing in protest.

"What are you going to do now, little Ana?" Elliot taunts me.

"Please! Please!" I'm laughing, struggling against them.

"You know I love it when you beg, Anastasia." Christian says.

"Christian! I love you!"

"I love you too, baby! Always. One..."

"Two..." Elliot says.

"Three!" And with that, they toss me in the water and I go under.

When I come back up they both have already jumped in. Christian comes up, from under water. He wraps me in his arms. I wrap my arms around his neck and legs around his waist. He kisses me softly.

"Alright! Enough of this mushy love shi- ah, stuff." Elliot says and tries to cover his profanity from his mother's stern look. "Let's have some fun!"

Christian and I are practically hanging on each other. Elliot wants to play 'chicken'. Kate gets on his shoulders.

"Come on, guys!" They say, looking at Christian and I.

Before I could say anything Christian lifts me and sets me on his shoulders. Mia is standing between the couples, acting as our referee.

"Alright, I want a good clean fight. No eye gouging. No hair pulling. No crying for your mommy when you loose, Elliot."

"Hey! That happened once." We laugh.

"Alright. Go!" She quickly moves and we go at it.

Elliot is yelling at Kate. She yells at him back, to leave her alone and concentrate on standing still. With them bickering, Christian and I have the advantage. I push Kate back as Christian trips Elliot and they go down. Christian and I have both are hands in the air as winners. Then he tosses me into the water. We play a few more rounds after that.

After awhile we just hang around in the water, socializing. And before too long we're exhausted and starting to get hungry again. Mia doesn't want us to leave, so we decide to order Chinese take out and watch movies.

I'm getting out of the pool. Christian is already out, eye fucking me as I walk to him. I smile a sweet seductive smile. His eyes are so dark they're almost black, as they roam my body. I'm ringing out the water in my hair. Instead of stopping, I walk right past him and push him back in the pool. He comes back up, shaking the water from his hair.

"Eat your heart out, Grey." I say with a smirk.

"I'd rather eat you out." OH MY GOD!

"Christian!" I reprimand him.

He climbs out of the pool, using the ledge instead of the stairs. Now it's my turn to eye-fuck him. He holds me in his arms, his hands close to my ass. I run my hands up his rock hard chest to around his neck. He leans down and whispers in my ear.

"I fucking love you, Anastasia Steele."

"I love you more, Christian Grey."

He kisses me. It quickly turns passionate, forgetting we're at his parents in their backyard. Elliot starts with the cat calls and wolf whistles. I pull away blushing. I turn around to go into the house so I can dry off and change. Dr. Grey is starring at us with a glossy eyed look, smiling. I turn back to Christian. He just stands behind me, embracing me. I put my hands on his forearms and he kisses my head. I love this man!


We've ate our dinner and continue to watch movies. It's getting late and since we're still having so much fun, we all decide to stay here for the night. Taylor even went to get us clothes.

Christian and I are snuggled up, practically on top of each other. He is rubbing my thighs, that are across his lap. He nuzzles his nose against my ear. He starts nibbling on it.

"Let's fuck." He says in his husky needy voice. My insides clench deliciously and I am instantly wet.

"Christian." My voice breathless, getting tired on.

He starts kissing and biting my neck, holding my head with one of his hands. I'm already starting to pant.

"We can't. We're at your parents house."

"I don't care. I know you want me, baby and I sure as hell want you. Let's fuck. Now." All I can do is nod.

"We're going to bed guys." Christian pulls me up to stand in front of him. "Anastasia's tired."
