A/N: Thank you so much for the wonderful reviews. I'm glad to know that there are others who like normal days. I may add a few surprises here and there.

"Ana." I hear someone whisper into my ear. I turn to roll over but end up on someone's lap.

"You ok, baby?" Christian asks. Luckily I landed in his lap.

"Yeah. Um..Where am I?"

"We're back at my parent's house. I just laid you on the sofa to sleep."

"Oh. I thought we were back home." I rub my eyes.

"We'll head back tomorrow morning. Ok?" He kisses the top of my head and inhales deeply taking in my scent. "You smell so sweet, Mrs Grey." I feel him smile.

"You're not so bad yourself, Mr Grey." I smirk, and snuggle into his chest.

"Come on. Let's get some food. Everyone should be back soon." He lifts me up to my feet and follows suit.

"How long was I asleep?"

"Just an hour. Elliot phoned to say that Mia and Kate were still shopping, so I just left you to sleep. You looked so peaceful." He smiles down at me, stroking my cheek with his knuckles. I lean into his touch and smile. "Come on. Eat."

"Yes, sir." I walk out of his hold and towards the kitchen. I met with such a delicious smell. "What on earth have you been up to, Mr Grey?"

He says nothing but pushes me into the kitchen further. "I thought I would just re-heat your doughnuts and melt some chocolate." He whispers that last part in my ear with such...excitement? Seduction? Maybe both.

"Oh Christian! This looks and smells wonderful. You certainly know how to re-heat." I smirk at him, and take a seat on the stool. Christian pours the melted chocolate into a small bowl over the warm doughnuts. He walks round and places the bowl in front of me.

"Now I don't want any arguments. But you will eat." He tells me with a smile on his face.

"I don't think I can argue with that." I say, smiling up at him. He grabs one of the chocolate covered doughnuts and puts it near my mouth. The smell is divine. I open my mouth and he places the warm doughnut in it. The taste is just as good as the smell. I moan at the flavours exploding in my mouth. Christian smiles at me.

"That good?" I nod at him. He picks up another one and this time places half in his mouth and I bite the other.

"Mmmm...might fine, Mr Grey." I bite my lip on purpose. He growls at me.

"Careful." He says, in a low, lustful tone. I bite my lip again. "Right. You've asked for it." He says. Grabbing my waist and putting me on the counter. His mouth devouring mine. We're all tongues and taste. He moves his hands down my thighs and slowly back up again, making their way up under my skirt. I moan into his mouth and deepen the kiss. My finger curling into his hair. He makes a deep grown in his throat. I move one hand down his back pushing him closer to him. As close as I can get him to me. His hands move up and down my thighs, caressing them.

"WOAH! Get in there little bro!" Elliot shouts out.

We both freeze into our kiss, both our eyes wide. We turn our heads to face the source of the load outburst. We are met with Elliot with a huge grin and Kate and Mia are just stunned. Christian quickly lifts me off the counter and back on the floor. I tidy my skirt and just focus my gaze on the floor. Christian stands close behind to which I understand very quickly.

"Umm..we're just gonna get out of your way." I say, with a huge blush covering my face. I hold on tight to Christian's hand which he doesn't argue about, and stays close. I hear sniggering just as we walk out the door and then we bump into Grace and Carrick.

"Everything ok you two?" Carrick asks.

"Um, yeah. All good dad." I can't look up at either Grace or Carrick. "We're just gonna head upstairs and get some rest."

"Ok dear." Grace says. Bags in her hand.

We walk quickly out or the room and up the stairs to our room. Christian closes the door behind us and lets go of my hand.

"I have never had to deal with that before. Another first, Mrs Grey." He smirks.

"My heart is racing. That was so embarrassing! How can we face them now?"

"Haha, we'll be fine. Now, Mrs Grey. How about we finish where we started?"

Just as I am about to say yes and jump him, there's a knock on the door.

"Hey you two. Can I come in?"

"We'll be down in a bit, Mia." Christian shouts through the door.

"Come on you two!" she protests. "I'm coming in!" She declares

"Mia!" we say in unison

"Mom and dad want you two downstairs now!" and with that she's out and down the stairs.

"I guess we have no choice." I say to him.

"Rain check."

"Can't wait."

We walk down the stairs to join everyone in the family room. Everyone smiles at us, but Kate and Elliot have huge grins on their faces.

"Everything ok?" Christian asks, leading me to the sofa near the fire place which is burning. It's so warm. I can't wait till we use our fire place at our new house.

"Yes. Fine darling. We just wanted to know what you wanted for dinner?"

I shrug my shoulders, still not able to make eye contact with anyone.

"We could go to my club?"

"Not going to argue with that." Elliot says, he knows Christian will pay for it, no arguments.

"You own a club?" Kate asks, I forgot to mention that to her. Oh, just the thought of going back to that club makes me squirm, which doesn't go unnoticed. Christian smirks down at me. He knows what I'm on about.

"Well that would be lovely darling." Grace says.

"Don't see why not." Carrick agrees. Mia is up for it. She is just smiling, looking so happy at us. But her smile is getting too big. Is she hiding something?

"Right then. I will phone ahead and book us table." Christian tells us, and he gets out his blackberry to make the reservation.

"Come on, Ana. Let's get you all spiced up!" Mia and Kate must have agreed to dress me up like a Barbie doll. They did the last time we went to Aspen. Well Kate more than Mia then but Mia seems to have something up her sleeve. I look forward to it, not!

After two hours of being poked and plucked and lord knows what else, Kate and Mia finally leave me to put on my outfit. Turns out that they both had spent the last hour of shopping buying me an outfit. It's almost as if they planned this out. I don't dare look at the labels. I know they have great taste. The dress is stunning. I step into it and pull it up. It's soft like silk, and covered in glitter gold and is just above my knee. Maybe I shall get Christian to approve it? I think this one can be a surprise for him. Luckily I have no trouble with the zip at the side. I take a quick last glance at myself in the mirror. I turn sideways. I best make the most of this. I know dresses like these will be off the cards in a few months time. I move my hands over my stomach. It's heart warming knowing little Blip is growing inside me. Unconsciously, I am smiling like a mad fool, rubbing my tummy. I lift my head and I see Christian standing at the door with a soft smile on his face. He's wearing his usually dark jeans and white shirt with a black leather jacket

"Am I interrupting anything, Mrs Grey?" he says, swiftly taking two long strides towards me till has his arms around my waist.

"Not at all, Mr Grey. Do you approve of the dress?" I ask, placing my hands on his arms.

"Is that what Kate and Mia bought you?"

"Yes. Well?" he holds his hand out and twirls his figure. I move out of his hold and twirl for him slowly. When I face him again he is smiling. "You approve?"

"Most definitely, Mrs Grey." He swiftly kisses me on the lips. "And I get to stroke the small of your back." He moves his hand round to my back and strokes up and down my spine. "At lease this dress covers what's mine better than the last one you wore at Aspen." He says deeply.

"Well, Mr Grey. I am glad you approve."

"Do you have a jacket to go with that?"

"I don't think so." I pull out of his hold and look in the bag on the bed. "There's this." I pull out what looks like denim jacket. "This should be fine."

"It's a big short. I want you to wear something that will keep you warm and cover this little one." He walks up behind me and puts his hands on my stomach. Christian can be so surprising and it brings a tear to my eye. I sniffle it away.

"Hey. Don't cry, Ana."

"Sorry. You can be so surprising sometimes and it warms my heart." I turn to face him and cup his face in my hands.

"Anything for you, baby." He leans forward and kisses me. Just as it starts to get interesting there's a knock on the door.

"You guys ready?"

"Yeah. We'll be there in a minute, Kate. Well, Mr Grey. I think we should get going."

"Ok. I'll see if Mia or my mom has a long coat for you to wear."

"It's fine, Christian. Really."

"I don't want you getting cold." He mutters.

"I'll be fine. And if I do get cold I can always just snuggle up in your arms."

"Good point, well-made, Mrs Grey." He smiles. "Come." He takes my hand and leads me out and down the stairs to meet everyone.

"Oh, Ana! You look stunning, darling" Grace says, embracing me into a hug.

"Let's get going!" Mia declares. She is over the moon lately. I guess she is excited to be an aunty.

"Calm down, Mia. There's no rush." Grace scolds her. I giggle. This is so normal.

"I love that sound." Christian whispers in my ear, which makes me giggle more.

We make our way out to the cars. My eyes shine with joy but as I pull my car keys out of my bag Christian grabs them.

"Hey!"

"I think I'll drive."

"No I'll drive. You might want a drink. I can't drink." I clearly state. I can see anger firing up in his eyes but it is immediately extinguished.

"You're right. Here."

"Wait what?"

"You drive."

Did I just win? I am stunned. I quickly take back the keys and head for the car. That was a rare moment that won't happen again for a long time.

"Taylor and Sawyer will drive in the SUV."

"Ok."

Once everyone is ready we are off. Christian directs me to the club. We have been to so many places that I can't possibly remember where they all are. The drive was full of laughs and normal talk between me and Christian. He refused to let me have the roof down. But I didn't go further into it.

I pull up outside the building and wait for Sawyer so he can take the car somewhere safe. I demanded for it to be put near any cameras after what happened to my old A3.

"Your car will be fine."

"I know." I mutter. Christian wraps his arm around my waist while everyone walks over to us.

"Lead the way, Christian." Carrick orders.

Christian keeps his arm around me but that doesn't stop Kate. She catches up to us and links her arm with mine. I can feel both of them trying to pull me between them, like how two children fight over a toy. God, I hope they don't do that and pull me apart. Christian makes a low, silent growl which makes me giggle. He relaxes almost instantly when I put my hand in his pants pocket, ignoring the others behind us. Luckily we all manage to fit in the elevator. Christian pulls me to the back and stands behind me. I no! Please don't! Not here!

"I am not going to do anything but hold you." He whispers in my ear.

"How do you do that?"

"Do what?" he mutters, nibbling on my earlobe

"Read my mind."

"Ana, the moment I pulled you back here you tensed up."

"Oh."

"Yes, oh. I prefer to make you squirm away from family." I nod in agreement, and release a breath I hadn't realised I was holding.

The door opens and we flood out.

"Welcome back, Mr Grey. Mrs Grey. If you follow me I'll take you to your table." Blonde girl number one says, leading us to a large booth at the corner nearest the bar. "Can I get you all anything to drink?"

"We'll have a bottle of Bollinger 2002 with 6 glasses and a cranberry and apple virgin cocktail."

"Certainly, sir."

"Are we celebrating something?" Grace asks, Carrick helping her to her seat. All the Grey men are such gentlemen. Even Elliot is doing the same for Kate and Mia.

"We I do believe that my wife is pregnant."

"It's still early days though, darling."

"I know. But she had all the scans and I'd say it's for sure." He beams at us all. He's excited. He really does want Blip if he's happy to talk about it to everyone.

A waiter walks over to us and hands us our menus. Everything looks so good. Except for the mussels, which is something both Christian and I love.

"I won't get them."

"What?"

"The mussels."

"Have them. I don't mind."

"No, it's fine. I don't really want to have to refurbish the toilets if you go throwing up again."

"Good point." I mutter, looking back at the menu.

5 minutes later, everyone has ordered except me. I just can't make up my mind. It all sounds so delicious.

"I think I'll just have the lasagne with a small side salad with French dressing, please?"

"Certainly, ma'am." The waiter says calmly, although I know he seemed irritated. I can't help it. I wanted everything in the menu that involved meat.

"You know, you could have picked out more than one dish if you wanted."

"I'm hungry but I'm not that hungry. I don't want to get fat." I pout

"Ana. It doesn't matter how big you get, it doesn't make a difference to me." He smiles at me, lifting my chin up so he can lightly kiss me, too lightly for my liking. I look around and everyone is all smiles and animatedly chatting. Except Grace, she's smiling at us with pure love and joy.

Our drinks arrive and I just eye Christian's glass of Bollinger. 'No' he mouths to me. I just pout but he just chuckles. I really want a drink right now.

"She can have a sip." Grace intrudes.

"No, she can't."

"Christian. A sip won't hurt." He gives her a stern look but knows he won't win against his mom. He sighs in defeat and dips his glass down to my lips. He lifts it enough to let the cool, crisp liquid slide into my mouth and all too quick he takes it away.

"Mmmm."

"Nice?"

"Very. Can I have another?"

"No, Mrs Grey. I can give you something much better but that can wait till later." He murmurs. Those words alone have got me squirming, and he knows it. He smirks at me and gives me a devilish wink. My breath has now left my body. "Breath, Ana, breathe." He strokes my cheek with his knuckles.

We all talk about what we're all going to be doing over the next week. Mia and Ethan are going away for a few weeks in Paris. Kate and Elliot will be busy planning their wedding. Carrick and Grace will both be busy with work. Christian will be back at work as well. And me? I only have 2 days left till I can go back to work. I am over excited about it but Christian wants me to stay at home longer till I am fully recovered. I know he means well but I have told him over and over again that I need to go back to work or I will go insane being stuck at Escala. It would only be for a few months anyway till I go on maternity leave.

"Christian. Can I ask you something?"

"Anything."

"Would it be ok if I went round to work and picked up a few manuscripts?"

"Can't you just have them emailed to you?"

"I prefer looking over original copies not digital."

"Can I come with you?" he has laced that sentence with such promise.

"Why? What do you have in mind?"

"I was thinking I would take you out on The Grace. We could christen the bed over and over again." I nod frantically and smile broadly at him.

"What are you two up too?" Elliot interrupts.

"None of you business, Elliot." Christian says.

"We know you're up to no good. When you two are together there's always something going on." Elliot continues. Kate is sitting there trying to hold back her laughter. I can't wait till later to see what she's going to be asking me.

We finally make our way through our meals. And what a meal. Just what I needed. I am the first to finish which has stunned both Kate and Christian, but they're all smiles. Everyone has another round of drinks while I am sipping on my second cranberry and apple virgin cocktail.

Out of nowhere the lights go out. There are random noises coming from everywhere. Muffled voices of the other diners.

"Ladies and Gentlemen. If you could remain seated at all times we are about to find the source of the power cut." Someone shouts out.

I start to shake. I hate the dark. I hate the dark. The darkness reminds me of my nightmares. Something always comes out of the dark. My breathing becomes shallow and heavy. I start to shake more. My heart beating against my chest. I try to remain still as possible but I am too nervous. I feel a hand on my shoulder. My panic rises and I quickly get to my feet. About to run, I feel arms around me. Oh god no! My breathing becoming harsher. He's come for me. Hyde has come to finish the job.

"Ana. Ana. Ana. Calm down." I try to fight my way out of the arms that hold me. "Calm down. Ana. Calm down." I fight even more, but the panic rising even more. I want to scream.

"Get off me!" I shout.

"Ana. Baby! It's only me."

"Christian?"

"Yes. I'm here. Calm down." I instantly stop fighting his hold. I thought it was Jack. I thought it was Jack. My breathing is still harsh. I can't control it anymore. "Ana? Ana? Talk to me?" I lose my voice. Just when the lights come back on the darkness consumes me and I go limp in Christian's arms.

Just as the darkness caves in more I hear the faintest sounds of people scurrying around me. Calling my name.

A/N: Sorry for the late update. I think I am going to add a new chapter every day then take a day off in between. I tried looking for that specific type of Bollinger that Christian and Ana like but instead decided to go on the company site. Reviews much loved. Thank you for reading.
