Jade was still a little bleary from the head injury after the flight and Luke had immediately called Grace to come over and check her out, though Mia, Carrick and Elliot had come as well.

Whilst it was endearing that they were so worried about Jade, everyone was in shock at how she looked.

Jade had insisted that Christian went back home to Ana and hadn't really been expecting a big family get together, still confused and overwhelmed by their attention and their shock.

When Jade had been in a coma she'd looked awful, but she'd been unconscious, and somehow that had been easier to deal with.

Elliot paled 'fucking hell Jade...you look awful'. She laughed 'thanks, I still look better than you'.

Elliot smirked 'touché', Grace set about checking over Jade, in complete silence. After a few seconds Jade took Grace's slightly shaking hand and muttered 'It's fine. I'm fine'. At this Grace still said nothing, but she looked a little relaxed.

After a little while and a few questions, Grace nodded, taking off her medical gloves 'you've got a concussion, I don't know how good an idea it was for you to fly back so soon after an injury like that, but there won't be any lasting problems, you should be okay within a day or two. The stitches are done well; as long as the wounds are kept clean then they should heal okay. Thankfully it looks like you won't have scarring'.

Jade looked visibly relieved but said nothing and carried on

'the injury to your face is going to remain red and a little swollen for a few days too, there's nothing much we can do about that'.

Mia was looking closely over Jade 'you look like in the films when someone's had their face shoved into something'. Jade glanced up at her Aunt 'well yeah, it was a table as far as I remember'. At that everyone paled a little and Faith took that moment to start grumbling from her nearby cot. The fussing turned into lung bursting crying and the Grey family excused themselves, leaving Jade and Luke with their baby.

Ana had spent Thursday night with Christian, thankful that he was back and so was Jade.

She hadn't actually seen Jade, Luke had taken his wife and daughter straight back to their apartment, wanting to return them to normalcy, not wanting to let either out of his sight.

Christian had barely let Ana out of his sight either, though they hadn't left the bedroom much anyway.

Jade had made sure she only came to see Ana when she knew nearly everyone had left for home; she was more than aware of how bad her injuries looked. Despite the fact Ana was fucking her father, Jade actually got on really well with her, and was bored out of her mind in the high apartment.

For all its views across the City, her studio and everything else they had there- she was bored.

It had only been a few days since she'd been back from Israel and Jade wanted to get back to normality as much as she hated the stifling ordinariness of her life back in Washington State.

Christian had mentioned to her that Ana was staying late at the office tonight, which was Friday, meaning Luke was at home and could look after Faith. Jade was bored and so she took the opportunity to go and see Ana, deliberately going late in the day, when there wouldn't be people around to see the stitches, bruises, scratches and swelling on her face. Whilst Jade didn't give a shit what people thought, it wouldn't look good if the daughter of Christian Grey turned up covered in injuries and everyone began to gossip about it.

It seemed like no one was around, she didn't really know much about the publishing house and how many people were there usually but she was pretty sure her Dad would freak out if he found out how few people were with Ana.

Jade had had her hair cut in a block fringe again and had layers in the front of her hair, which meant that the facial injuries were less visible, dressed in a pair of skinny jeans and a loose black top, trying to keep all her injuries as covered as possible.

Jade glanced at her watch, seeing it was 6.30 as she wandered through the building, not really aware of where Ana worked within it.

An attractive redhead passed Jade and she stopped her 'sorry, do you know where I could find Ana Steele? I don't really know my way around' the woman smiled warmly 'I just passed her heading to the kitchen- it's just up the stairs on the left'. Jade thanked her and headed on up.

Jade got to the kitchen just as Jack Hyde was closing the door behind him after following Ana in, though the door didn't close more than halfway as it was a heavy fire door. She was intrigued and stopped beside the door, looking in through a crack and listening intently.

She heard Jack's ramblings about whether Ana was some type of spy for Grey enterprises and silently cursed her father's meddling ways in Ana's career.

It was as Jack moved closer to Ana and spoke in a low threatening tone that Jade was suddenly on full alert 'you are such a tight assed, cock blocking, prick tease you know Ana-''. If Hyde had more to that sentence he didn't get a chance to say it, as Jade barrelled her way into the room, slamming the door open and pushing Jack hard against the wall.

'I think maybe you should stay away from Ana, you don't mess with the Grey's and you keep well away from her too'.

Jack tried to struggle against her but Jade was far too strong, despite him being a grown man

'I'm being serious, stay the fuck away from my family'.

Jack Hyde might have had the biggest ego in the world, he might have thought he was indestructible and that no one was ever going to stand in his way- but the sight of the anger and power in Jade's face made him back off immediately.

Jade narrowed her eyes at Jack, voice quiet 'and if you ever come near us again -and that includes Ana- you'll know what real pain is. You have no idea what I could do to you'.

Jade dropped her hands from Hyde and tucked her hair back, then pulled down the left front of her top, which meant all her scars, stitches, cuts, bruises and swelling was visible, including the ones from years ago. Jade's voice was menacing, talking through gritted teeth 'all of this occurred over only two days of my life, I promise you- if you come near my family again I'll let you know just how bad it hurts'.

Jade glanced at Ana and the brunette left the room with her, looking wild eyes as Jade immediately got her phone out, pressing a speed dial. 'Taylor? Yeah, I'll meet you at the stairs'.

Taylor was already at the entrance when they got there, looking slightly worried. Jade glanced up 'Ana, go wait in the car with my Dad'.

Ana didn't' even question Jade's motives, walking straight out of the building.

Taylor looked at Jade 'what's happened?'. 'It's Jack Hyde, her boss, I walked in on him right before he tried to rape her, seemed to think she was playing 'hard to get'. And then I threatened to show him real pain'. Taylor smirked slightly, 'I'll meet you at the car'.

Jade walked down the steps slowly, aware that Jack Hyde was probably having the shit kicked out of him by Taylor.

Still to come- Christian's birthday, Elena/Ana/Jade face off and Grace hears everything, Jose's painting of Jade causes problems with her and Christian, Luke and Jade fight again.

Drama Drama Drama

So HOPEFULLY chapter 50 will be the big one I wrote literally ages ago. But it depends if I manage to fit everything in before we get to it :)

Please review and let me know what you think x
