As soon as the door shut, Ana turned to Christian. "Christian Grey. I cannot believe the way you acted all night." She gave him a disapproving look.

"I'm sorry, Ana. It's just; I didn't want him getting in the way of our Maddie. And now he's hurt her."

"He let her go. I could tell they were in a relationship before, so he must've let her go. She may be hurt now, but he is saving her in long run." She shook her head. "And one day, some boy will get in between us and Maddie. That's the way it goes. It seems like Emilie might be getting in the way of us and Teddy, some artistic man will get in the way of us and Phoebe, and some boy will get in the way of us and Maddie. In the end, he will be a part of our family. We will all learn to share." Ana smiled and grabbed her husband's hand. He's so protective.

"But, we just got her back, Ana. I don't want to share. I just want to have our daughter to ourselves."

"I know, just don't worry about it. We have the rest of our lives with her. Come, let's go to bed."

Christian smiled a mischievous grin, "Yes, Mrs. Grey."

Ana laughed and pulled her husband into her bedroom.

King County Jail, Seattle Washington.

A buzzing sound is heard, and the door opens into the interrogation room. Detective Sanford takes a seat in front of the inmate.

"So, where would you like to start on this whole thing? How about the day you decided to steal Madeline Grey?"

Eric rubbed his wrist, still sore from wearing handcuffs for over 20 hours. "Well, Jen and I were trying to have a baby. But, we kept having miscarriages. We went to a gynecologist and realized that she had Ovarian Cancer. She had a tumor on each one. We went through chemotherapy, and she ended up having to have surgery, because one of her ovaries ruptured. Luckily, the doctors fixed everything before she bled to death, but she could never have kids. Jennifer went crazy. She had a horrible smoking and drinking problem. I didn't know what today. I told her we could adopt, and she agreed. But she said she wanted a specific girl. She said that she had a dark past with Christian Grey, that he owed her. She said that if we took Madeline, he would understand. I don't know why I believed her, she was my wife. You should believe your wife. So then, we found what bus route she was riding, pulled it over, and told the driver that we were family friends. Then we took her. I would never hurt Madeline, I swear. I love her like she was my own daughter." Eric broke down into hard sobs, ashamed of himself, and feeling an overwhelming sense of guilt.

"Okay, Eric. That's all for today, back to your cell."

"Passengers, we are now flying over Seattle Washington. The time is 11:30 AM and it is 55 degrees outside. There seems to be a light fog, but other than that, it seems to be a great day in Washington. Please fasten your seatbelts for the remainder of the flight."

Maddie couldn't help the grin on her face. Ana smiled as well and squeezed her hand.

"Welcome home, darling."

Christian looked at the two women next to him. All is right in the world. We are all home, he thought.

The wheels finally touched ground and finally, they were getting off the plane. They made it through immigration with ease, thanks to Christian Grey's status, and collected their bags. Finally, they reached the pick-up area. And waiting for them, at the end of the room, were her siblings and grandparents. A tall, copper-color haired young man came up first. His smile was breathtaking and was a replica of Christian. Memories flooded back in her mind. Her going to watch Teddy play football and baseball. Teddy pushing her on the swing. Teddy bringing Maddie a band-aid when she fell off her bike: "See? This band-aid will do the trick. And in a few weeks, it will be completely gone. It won't hurt a bit. And you know what?"

Maddie's sobs started slowing down. "What?" She whispered.

"All my friends will think you are the coolest girl ever because you're so tough."

Maddie smiled. "You think so, bubba?'

"I know so."

Maddie smiled now, her eye's watering. "Hi Teddy."

Teddy sighed in relief, he had been secretly wondering if she forgot about him. He pulled her into a tight hug. "Hey little bug." He said.

Little Bug! I forgot about that! Maddie smiled at him when he let her go. Teddy moved to say hi to his parents, and up came a petite girl, with a short, black pixie cut. She wore a floral dress. She had natural makeup and a smile just like Ana's. She seemed to have both of her parents' features. She smiled. "Hi Maddie."

"Hi Phoebe." Phoebe pulled her into a hug, and Maddie pulled her tighter, almost afraid to break her frail little body. She remembered all the times Phoebe would dress Maddie up. Though she was more into painting, Phoebe always insisted to do Maddie's hair and makeup when they played princesses. Phoebe pulled away and wiped her tears. She gave a soft laugh at herself, "welcome home.'

An old couple stood behind Phoebe, and they made their way towards her. Maddie recognized them instantly. "Gigi! Grandpa!" She gave each of them a huge hug.

"Welcome home, darling." Grace smiled.

Carrick took his granddaughter's bag and they all went to the car and made their way home to The Grey's house.

After about an hour drive, the car pulled into the driveway. When She entered the house, more people were there to greet her. Maddie sprinted over to Kate and Elliot and gave them a huge hug.

"Maddie, I'm so sorry. I knew, I knew. I just…"

"Kate, it's okay. I'm here now." She smiled. Hiding behind her adoptive parents, she saw a small girl. "Gift!" She gave the girl a tight hug, happily noticing the extra weight she's gained. "How are you? How's America."

As this exchange of words were going on, Teddy leaned over to ask, "How does she know Gift?"

"Long story, son." Christian replied.

After a moment with Gift, Maddie turned to the other people in the room. She saw Ray who she called Pops and then Grandma Carla. She gave each of them a big hug. Then she saw a petite woman standing next to Teddy.

"Maddie, this is my Fiancée, Emilie. Emilie, this is my sister."

Emilie shook her hand. "It's so great to meet you. Welcome home."

"Thank you." Maddie went back over to her parents. Her eyes were droopy from exhaustion. "If you guys don't mind, I think I'm going to go to bed. Jet Lag was never a great friend." Everyone chuckled and bid her goodnight. Christian and Ana led her upstairs to her room. It was just like she left it.

"We didn't want to change anything, but we can change it now that you're back."

Maddie slowly walked around the room and examined everything. Pictures of her past were everywhere. And in that moment, everything came rushing towards her, the puzzle was finished, everything in place, and all the reality of what she went through hit home as well. She sunk to the ground, sobbing into her hands. Christian and Ana rushed over to her. Christian pulled his daughter into his arms while Ana sweetly rubbed her arm.

"Honey, it's okay, you're home." Ana crooned.

"Why did this happen to me? It's not fair!" Maddie cried.

"I don't know. But we will find out. And I swear, you will never leave us again."

The three of them sat there for a while, and before you know it, Maddie had fallen asleep in Christian's arms. She had cried herself to exhaustion. Christian slowly picked her up and placed her into her bed. Christian and Ana both placed a soft kiss on their daughter's forehead, and left her to sleep in the bedroom he belonged in.
