A/N: I'M TAKING A BREAK FROM LET'S END IT AT FIFTY. HOPE YOU LIKE THIS ONE

Right after high school, Ana moved to Seattle with her best friend Kate. They rented an apartment because it was more expensive to dorm. Ana found herself a job as a teller. It was an easy job, but it could get busy from time to time. As usual, she got nice people and the angry ones as if they were on their period all the time. She found the rude people easy to deal with. She always killed them with kindness. Today was a different day. It was her birthday. She's turning 19 today. Kate somehow managed to buy a bottle of wine and even though Ana doesn't drink, it wouldn't hurt to drink just one. She didn't mind working on her birthday. She was, after all, saving up for a car. Wanda broke down a few months ago and Ray had offered to buy her a car, but she refused.

"Dad, I'm an adult. Let me suffer and know how it is to work, work, work," she said over the phone.

Ray wasn't her biological dad, but she loved him nonetheless. He was a great man with a great reputation. He called her first thing this morning and although she was woken up at 4 in the morning, she was glad to hear his voice.

"Is there anything else I could help you with today?" Ana asked the lady at her window.

"No, sweetie, that would be all," the lady said and left.

It had been a busy morning and Ana was finally able to take a breath.

"What are you doing tonight, Ana?" James asked. James, all the tellers and bankers knew, had a crush on Ana. He made it obvious, but Ana ignored it. James was her Assistant Manager and she didn't want to get in trouble. He was good looking, no doubt about that.

Ana had locked her drawers and got up from her chair to go to her vault and grab some more money. James followed like a lost puppy. "You know, stay home. I think Kate got a new movie for us to watch," Ana lied. She didn't want James to be more than just her Assistant Manager. She hasn't been a teller for more than a month and she didn't want to be that girl.

What was it going to take for James to finally get a date with Ana? His intentions weren't bad. She was such a beautiful girl. He hasn't done anything to make her feel uncomfortable. He really did like her. He knew the policies and he wasn't going to hide it from HR if they were to end up together. He could transfer so Ana didn't have to. "Oh well, I hope you're having a great birthday so far," he said. He watched Ana unlock her vault, she was an angel.

"Oh my God, Ana, can you open up please?" Gloria came running in the vault. Ana hurried to the front only to see such a gorgeous man. She heard Gloria say Grey, but Ana was hurrying, the man looked like he was in a hurry. As soon as she was seated, the man walked up to her window without being called. Ana didn't like that.

"Good morning, how are you?" Ana asked with a smile. The man didn't answer.

"I need to take out 2 thousand from my checking," the man demanded.

"Alright. Do you have your card or ID with you?" Ana asked. She needed to get this man out of her window, but he was gorgeous. She didn't mind a little lag.

The man looked at her and looked at other windows. He was pretty sure everyone knew him. He didn't like how this day was starting already. Thanks to this lady."You must be new," he muttered. He took his wallet out to get his card. He was sure this day was going to get worse.

Christian Grey. Ana typed up and there he came up on the screen. She handed him back his ID with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Grey."

Ana. Her name tag read. She was very beautiful, but Christian couldn't think of Ana that way. Miranda was on her way to the Escala right now. He needed her to fill his needs. He has been frustrated all week and she's just what he needs. The contract is going to end in a month and a half, maybe then, he could get to know Ana. She looks too innocent for his kind. She wore minimal make up. Freckles that go along her cheeks and nose.

"How would you like your cash, Mr. Grey?" Ana asked. She has bright blue eyes. Christian had to look away, he felt as though she could see right through him. This has never happened before. He intimidates people, but no one has ever intimidated him.

"All hundreds," he snapped. Ever since he was little, he didn't know how to show his feelings. He didn't know how to cope with good and bad feelings. His parents tried to reach out to him, but he has always been very secretive. He remembered how much he loved Mia when his parents took her home. She was an angel and he loved her a lot. It was funny feeling, he had to admit. The last time he felt like that was with the crack whore mother he once had. He shook the thoughts away when he realized Ana was staring at him once again with money in had.

She started counting his money. It took all she had to make eye contact with him, but she's done it twice already. The man seemed sad, angry even. She didn't know what it was about him, but she wanted to reach out to him. As if it was even possible. Someone who looked like him wouldn't want to be with someone who looked like her. She didn't look all too bad, but her confidence was low.

"...and two thousand," she put the money in the enveloped and handed it to him. "Is there anything else I could do for you today, Mr. Grey?"

He thought about a lot of things. She could kneel right by his play room door like a good submissive. She could let him spank her. Even hit her with his cane or belt. Either one gave him great pleasure. "No, that's all," he said. Grabbed the envelope and just like that, gone. No thank you. No good bye. No see you later. But one simple that's all. It took Ana a few seconds to compose herself. Mr. Grey was gorgeous, even he knew that. She walked back in the vault.

"You completed your initiation," Gloria squealed. "He's the most difficult person to deal with. He always has a temper and attitude. He made one of the tellers quit because of how nervous he made her."

"I'm glad that's over with. He did expect me to know him," Ana said. She just wanted to get today over with. She was going to come home, relax, and drink wine with her best friend. She wanted to relax.

But, of course, today was going against Ana. It was such a slow day. She still had 5 more hours to go.

Meanwhile back in Escala, Miranda just parked her Audi. Sir would be back anytime soon and he had no time to tittle tattle around. He had other things to do. She was just a contract on the other hand. She didn't know what she was getting herself into. She wanted more, but he didn't. He had other needs and love wasn't one of them .She always wondered if he knew how it felt. She wasn't allowed to talk to about him anything. She was just his submissive. Nothing more, nothing less. He didn't make conversations with her. He didn't sit down and eat with her. He provided what she needed, but not the emotional part of it. Maybe after the contract, he would somehow have a change of heart and love Miranda, but it wasn't even a possibility.

Christian was thinking about Ana while Taylor drove back to Escala. He couldn't get his mind off of her. He could end the contract with Miranda today if he wanted, but he wasn't sure if Ana was anything like that. No one's denied him before, that was the difference. He could offer them anything they wanted, but he couldn't offer them a relationship other than Dominant and Submissive relationship. It wasn't in his nature to be all hearts and flowers. The only woman he's bought flowers for is his mother. She's reminded on the 25th of every month how much love he had for her. He didn't say it, but she knew very well what his intentions were. When he grew up, she grew up with him. She came to understand that Christian was a very broken little boy. She knew he wasn't going to get over it. He was always going to have that hole in his heart. She wished she was able to change it, but she loved him nonetheless.

Ana has been following up with Christian's account the whole day. The only transactions that's done on his account is the 20th for the same amount each month. She was really intrigued by him. "Gloria, what do you know about Christian Grey?"

Gloria looked at her as if she should have known everything about him. She pulled out a magazine out of her drawer and handed it to Ana. Christian Grey : The Most Eligible Bachelor in Seattle. He looked so mouth-wateringly gorgeous. "He's a multi-billionaire business man," Gloria said. "Poor soul, he was adopted by Carrick and Grace Grey when he was 5, I believe."

"He only comes to the bank once a month," Ana commented.

"Oh yea, it's the sweetest thing, really. He takes out money to buy Grace Grey thousands of flowers on the 25th. He likes to go to the flower shop and pick the flowers himself," Gloria said. "I wish a guy did that for me."

Ana read the magazine and learned a few things about him. At age 26, he's never dated which lead them to ask if he was gay. He wasn't gay for sure, the magazine said. He dropped out of Harvard and started getting into business. At age 20, he was a millionaire and he just kept getting richer and richer from then on. Of course she had to forget about him. There was no way that he was going to be into her. With his life style and the people he could be around, he wasn't going to be with a teller like Ana. People like him looked down at people like her, well at least most of them.

Back at Escala, Miranda had packed her belongings and left. Christian couldn't deal with her while thinking about Ana. She asked if she was still going to see him next week, but he told her to forget about the contract. He had no interest in her anymore. She was devastated. She loved him, but to be fair, he was only interested in the contract. Nothing more. She didn't cry in front of him, but as soon as the elevator closed on her, she broke down. She was sure Taylor or Sawyer were watching the camera, but she didn't care. She had just lost someone she never had in the first place. She never had him, but it still hurt.

"Taylor," Christian called out. Taylor walked in his study.

"Sir?"

"I need you to find out everything you can about a teller named Ana at my bank," Christian said without looking up.

"Yes, sir!"

He didn't need to dismiss him, he just let himself out. Taylor has known Christian for 5 years now and he knew every gestures he did. Taylor always thought Christian was a wonderful man, but he was a sick fuck with his play room and all. He needed to act his age. He was too stressed with his company. He felt pity for the kid, really. Christian wasn't waiting for someone, but Taylor was. He wanted someone to make Christian happy and feel loved. He was a lonely man who didn't like anyone's company. Taylor wondered if he even knew his worth. He bet that if he put himself out there, try out the love and hate game, he could find the one. Maybe he was afraid to get hurt, but it's part of the deal.

Right now, he had to run a background check about a girl named Ana. He wished she was blonde.
