7 AND A HALF MONTHS LATER. ANAS POV

"Ana! Come on! We are going to be late. I need to swing by Grey House on my way!" Christian shouts up the stairs to me.

"I'm coming, I'm coming, jeez! I would like to see you try to fit your feet into a pair of shoes when you ankles are so swollen they look like balloons!" I scream back and then start to waddle down the stairs.

Tonight we are going to a charity gala down town and if it wasn't for the fact that Christian is getting an award and the dress I am wearing cost over $3,000, I would insist I stay home tonight.

I'm the size of a freaking house! I pee a million times a day and nothing fits any more apart from my sweats, Christians shirts and this dress that was tailor made to fit my bump.

"Wow! This was worth the wait. You look gorgeous Mrs Grey" Christian tells me and then gives me a small kiss on the lips being mindful of my make-up.

"You look very sexy yourself, husband" I smile and take in the beauty that is my husband in a Tux.

We have been married 6 months now. We had a big but quick wedding at Bellevue and then went on honeymoon across Europe for three weeks.

When the press found out that Christian had fiancée, they went nuts.

We sneaked into a bakery to try different wedding cakes and when we came out, Christian noticed a small bit of chocolate on my top lip. We forgot that we were on the side walk and when he leaned down and sucked the chocolate off my lip, I deepened it and put my left hand on his face.

The pap that had followed the SUV from Escala got the perfect shot of my engagement ring while we were kissing.

Thankfully at the point in time all the important people knew we were together.

Andrea and her husband unfortunately walked in on us one lunch time while we were getting down and dirty in the office on the 5th floor. It was awkward on my end but she told me she had a feeling we were together after she had witnessed a few looks and a few touches we had shared.

Christian released a press statement that said

"Christian Grey is delighted to announce his engagement to Anastasia Steele. The wedding will take place next year"

The bit about next year put them off our scent and we managed to get married and jet off on honeymoon before they realised we had tied the know.

Carrick released a wedding picture of us along with a short statement as soon as we were in the air and we made headlines all over the country.

This last 7 months have flown by.

Jose is out of treatment and even took a few candid shots at our wedding which he then gifted to Christian as a thank you for all his help. While he was in California he met a woman called Tara who he said captured his heart the second he met her. He moved out there to be with her and he is now engaged to be married And as far as I know, health as a horse.

Speaking of Engaged. Kate and Elliott are getting married next year but they haven't done anything in order. Kate gave birth to their daughter, Ava Anastasia Grey two months ago. They moved in, then had a baby, then he proposed. Grace wanted them married before the baby got here but Kate was almost six months by the time she found out and she said she wanted her slim figure back before she got married.

I'm glad that Teddy will have a little playmate to grow up with. I know Christian is nervous about security for the baby so having play dates at Kate's will make everything a lot easier.

I get in the back of Christians new Bentley and snuggle into Christians side and he kisses my head.

"Are you Ok baby? Do you want to stay home?"

"I'll be fine honey. Besides its not every day that a girl can watch her husband receive the "Man of the Year" award"

"I still can't believe I won it" he shakes his head.

"Well you did. The work you do in Africa is astounding, Christian. The fact that you sent over five million dollars worth of clothes from Walmart to third world countries proves what a big heart you have"

"I do love that shop!" He chuckles

We pull up out side of Grey House and Christian gets out and then opens my door for me. If I sit in the same place too long my back aches so I have to walk around a bit. We walk through the lobby hand in hand and I politely nod at all the staff that are still here.

We get in the elevator and Christian puts his key in the slot and hits the executive floor. He starts fondling my ass and running his lips down my neck as soon as the doors close.

"I do love riding in elevators with you Mrs Grey"

I smile and think about all the times we have hit the stop button in here and just taken each other without a care in the world.

This elevator is for the use of just Christian and myself. It has A master key that you have to put in the panel and the only people who have those key are Christian, myself, Taylor and Luke.

He had the elevator installed when I moved down to the fifth floor to start my job at Grey Publishing because he said he needed access to me twenty four seven.

I love my job and in the first six months, before I had to take maternity leave, I had been given two promotions. I went from assistant editor to editor and then editor to department editor. I have three authors on the best seller list and when I come back to work when Teddy is a little older, I will become the COO behind William Roach who is the current CEO. He retires next year so he has been teaching me everything I need to know so I can take the helm when the time comes.

Christian has had a day care installed on the other side of the fifth floor so we can bring Teddy in with us most days. Gail has asked to be his nanny and we jumped at the chance. We both trust Gail and we know that there is not another person on the planet that would look after him better and who knows all the security protocols.

The doors open and we walk out onto his office floor and see Holly sat at my old desk.

Holly is Andreas new assistant and took over my job when I left. Shes twenty nine, blond hair, brown eyes, has three kids and a husband that works at Microsoft. Where did Christian find her? Walmart.

He went in there one day to get some of their bacon flavoured chips which he has become obsessed with and Holily was the sales girl on the cash register he went too. He said that she was so professional and efficient that he offered her the job on the spot. She didn't know who he was and thought he was just some random weirdo off the streets who claimed to be a CEO to a multi billion dollar company. It wasn't until he demanded that she google him did she realise that he was the real deal and she accepted the job there and then. Shes been a god send and now that Andrea is pregnant and will be on maternity leave herself in a few months, Holly came at just the right time.

"Holly, it's Saturday and it's almost 7pm, why are you still here?" Christian asks her.

"My children are at disney world with my parents and my husband is in Dallas for a conference and I was bored so I though I would get a head start on next weeks work"

"Holly, I appreciate the effort but you work hard all week and deserve the time off. I'll tell you what, get yourself down to the Fairmont hotel, book into a nice room and then spend tomorrow relaxing in their spa. It's all on me as a thank you for your hard work Over the last few weeks"

"Oh my gosh! Thank you so much Mr Grey" she grabs her bag and says a quick goodbye and then she's gone.

We walk into Christian office and he grabs a file sat in the edge of his desk.

"Ahh ha! Got it. I need this for my conference call tomorrow with Tokyo" he looks up at me and then frowns when he sees me frozen in the door way.

"What's wrong?"

"I...holy fuck this is weird! I'm on the exact spot where we met and...and"

"And?"

"And my waters just broke" I say and indicate to the puddle between my feet.

"HOLY FUCK!" He grabs his hair and goes white as a sheet "Ok, Ok, Ok. We need to calm down and breath!" he starts taking really big breath and exhaling loudly.

"Are you calm? Why aren't you doing the breathing that we practised?" He asks me frantically.

"Because Im not the one who is freaking out, you are. Why are you breathing like a bear?"

"I read in all the books that you have to take big breaths"

"Yeah, the mom, while shes in labour! Not the daddy" I giggle.

He walks over to me and gently wraps his arms around me and kisses my lips.

"This is happening. We are about to meet our boy. I love you so so much Anastasia. Thank you for giving this to me"

"I love you too Christian"

"Let's get you down the hospital"

"What about your award?"

"I'll ask Ros to accept it for me. This is my award" he gently splays his hand over my belly and smiles.

"Come on Mr Grey, let's go meet our son"


FIFTEEN HOURS LATER

"Mrs. Grey, you've been in labor for fifteen hours now, right through the night. Your contractions have slowed in spite of the Pitocin. We need to do a C-section, the baby is in distress." Dr. Greene is adamant.

"About fucking time!" Christian growls at her. Dr. Greene ignores him.

"Christian, quiet." I squeeze his hand. My voice is low and weak and everything is fuzzy—the walls, the machines, the green-gowned people . . . I just want to go to sleep. But I have something important to do first . . . Oh yes. "I wanted to push him out myself."

"Mrs. Grey, please. C-section."

"Please, Ana," Christian pleads.

"Can I sleep then?"

"Yes, baby, yes." It's almost a sob, and Christian kisses my forehead.

"I want to see the Lil' Blip."

"You will."

"Okay," I whisper.

"Finally," Dr. Greene mutters. "Nurse, page the anesthesiologist. Dr. Miller, prep for a C-section. Mrs. Grey, we are going to move you to the OR."

"Move?" Christian and I speak at once.

"Yes. Now."

And suddenly we're moving—quickly, the lights on the ceiling blurring into one long bright strip as I'm whisked across the corridor.

"Mr. Grey, you'll need to change into scrubs."

"What?"

"Now, Mr. Grey."

He squeezes my hand and releases me.

"Christian," I call, panic setting in.

We are through another set of doors, and in no time a nurse is setting up a screen across my chest. The door opens and closes, and there's so many people in the room. It's so loud . . . I want to go home.

"Christian?" I search the faces in the room for my husband.

"He'll be with you in a moment, Mrs. Grey."

A moment later, he's beside me, in blue scrubs, and I reach for his hand.

"I'm frightened," I whisper

"No, baby, no. I'm here. Don't be frightened. Not my strong Ana." He kisses my forehead, and I can tell by the tone of his voice that something's wrong. "What is it?"

"What?"

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing's wrong. Everything's fine. Baby, you're just exhausted." His eyes burn with fear.

"Mrs. Grey, the anesthesiologist is here. He's going to adjust your epidural, and then we can proceed."

"She's having another contraction."

Everything tightens like a steel band around my belly. Shit! I crush Christi- an's hand as I ride it out. This is what's tiring—enduring this pain. I am so tired. I can feel the numbing liquid spread . . . spread down. I concentrate on Christian's face. On the furrow between his brows. He's tense. He's worried. Why is he worried?

"Can you feel this, Mrs. Grey?" Dr. Greene's disembodied voice is coming from behind the curtain.

"Feel what?"

"You can't feel it.

"No."

"Good. Dr. Miller, let's go."

"You're doing well, Ana."

Christian is pale. There is sweat on his brow. He's scared. Don't be scared,Christian. Don't be scared.

"I love you," I whisper.

"Oh, Ana," he sobs. "I love you, too, so much."

I feel a strange pulling deep inside. Like nothing I've felt before. Christian looks over the screen and blanches, but stares, fascinated.

"What's happening?"

"Suction! Good . . ."

Suddenly, there's a piercing angry cry.

"You have a boy, Mrs. Grey. Check his Apgar."

"Apgar is nine."

"Can I see him?" I gasp.

Christian disappears from view for a second and reappears a moment later, holding my son, swathed in blue. His face is pink, and covered in white mush and blood. My baby. My Blip . . . Theodore Raymond Grey.

When I glance at Christian, he has tears in his eyes.

"Here's your son, Mrs. Grey," he whispers, his voice strained and hoarse.

"Our son," I breathe. "He's beautiful."

"He is," Christian says and plants a kiss on our beautiful boy's forehead beneath a shock of dark hair. Theodore Raymond Grey is oblivious. Eyes closed, his earlier crying forgotten, he's asleep. He is the most beautiful sight I have ever seen. So beautiful, I begin to weep.

"Thank you, Ana," Christian whispers, and there are tears in his eyes too.


I am pulled from a deep deep sleep by a soothing voice. I was so tired after the C-section that as soon as I knew Teddy was ok I fell into the best sleep I have ever had. I open my eyes slowly and see my husband sat in a chair next to my bed talking to our son who is in his arms wrapped in the blanket that was in my hospital bag. It's blue and has Teddy written on it.

I don't move a muscle because I don't want to disturb the father son moment but when I hear what Christian is telling him my eyes well up.

"I don't know how to be a father but I promise you Son that I am going to try my hardest to be the best father in the world. I may mess up a time or two but I have mommy on my side and I know she won't let me fail. You're a very blessed little boy, Theodore. I'm not talking about your trust fund or the GEH legacy that you will, hopefully, be part of. I'm talking about your mommy. She's the best person I know. She's kind and thoughtful and since the second we found out that we would be blessed with you she has loved every single bit of you, just like I have. Mommy has made me a better person and I love her with my whole heart. And I love you, Theodore Raymond Grey. I never thought I would be blessed with a son, let alone one as perfect as you but I just know we are going to be best buds. I'm going to teach you how to fish and how to throw a ball. And one day, many years from now, I'm going to teach you how to treat a lady right because let me tell you son, having the love of a good woman is worth more than all the money in the world" he says softly and kisses Teddy's little head.

Christian looks up and see's me awake and he gives me a massive smile.

"Hey baby, how are you feeling?" He asks softly so he doesn't wake Teddy.

"I feel happy, elated, joyful, motherly and on top of the world right now so I would say I'm feeling pretty good" I shuffle back in the bed a little and pat the bed beside me. He stands up with a Teddy in his arms and gently places him in my hands before he gets in the bed beside me. I tilt my head and he gives me a kiss that is filled with so much love that it takes my breath away.

We study the beautiful little boy on my lap and I giggle when I remove his little hat and see the tuft of copper hair he has.

"I know that I am a bit biased, but he is the most beautiful baby I've ever seen"

"I agree. He's one handsome little fellow" Christians says softly while inspecting Teddy's little feet.

"He's handsome like his daddy" I say and pull Christian in for a kiss.

"And he's perfect like his mommy" he says sweetly "Let's have lots of children. The things I felt when I first saw him...I can't even describe it. I was so overwhelmed with love for the little guy. I love you, I love our son and I love our little family"

"We love you too Christian, don't we little guy?" Ana says in a baby voice.

This right here, with my wife and my son in my arms...life doesn't get any better than this.


FIVE YEARS LATER. CHRISTIANS POV

"Ok...yes...get it confirmed for me Welch...if anyone can rise from the dead it's that old bitch...I want full confirmation that she is dead In the next hour" I end the call and then throw my phone on the desk.

I haven't even thought about Elena Lincoln for over two years And now my phones are ringing off the hook with the rumours that she has been found dead.

About three months after Teddy was born, we finally had all the evidence we needed to make sure that she spent the rest of her miserable life in jail. Welch and Barney managed to get footage of her with an underage boy. He was 15. She had him tied to a cross while she beat him with a cane when the police busted in her door.

I was assured that she would not make bail but because of a stupid fucking misfiled bit of paperwork, she made bail and then went on the run. I scrambled a team to hunt her down but she disappeared without a trace and no one has heard from her since.

Until now.

Three hours ago Taylor got word that a woman who matched Elena's description was driven off the Road down in Panama which is where she was rumoured to be. I never got any of the reports about her because frankly, I just didn't give a shit where she was Rumoured to be or who she may be staying with. All I wanted to know is when she was caught And being brought back to the states to stand trial.

And now it looks like she will be brought back in a body bag.

I don't know how I feel about this. In one way I am furious that she won't be brought to justice but in another way, the fact that she may be dead means she will never be able to hurt anyone ever again.

The last five years have been the best of my life. I have the perfect marriage, perfect wife, a perfect son, a perfect daughter and we have been trying for another baby for the last month or so now, so hopefully next year, we will have a fifth member of our little family.

I look up when I hear my door open but I don't see anything but then I hear tiny footsteps. My three year old daughter pads around my desk in her little pink onsie. She looks so much like Ana its scary. She has brown curly hair with copper flecks, alabaster skin, pink rosy mouth and the most amazing pair of grey eyes. I was over joyed that she has my eyes because to look at her you would think that Ana made her just by herself.

"Daddy, Mama thaid aw you weady to tuck me in" she says as she holds her arms up for me to pick her up. I snuggle her into my chest and breath in her strawberry smelling hair, fresh from her bath.

"I'm ready munchkin. What story do you want daddy to read you tonight?"

"The pincess one daddy"

"Come on then" I hoist her into my arms and carry her up the stairs to her pink bedroom.

Mia is responsible for this room. When we found out that we were having a girl, I whisked Ana away for a romantic weekend in Aspen. While we were gone, Mia re decorated the whole room with the help of Kate. Its got pink carpet, pink walls, pink curtains and a pink princess canopy bed.

I set her gently down and then grab her princess story book. She snuggles into my arms and I get three chapters in when I realise she is fast a sleep. I cover her over with her blankets and then kiss her forehead softly.

"Goodnight baby girl. I love you so much. Sweet dreams" I turn on her night light and then leave her room.

Directly opposite her room is Teddy's and when I open his door to say good night, I find Ana tucking him in.

"Hey champ, I came to say goodnight" I walk over and press a kiss to his head.

"Goodnight dad" He mumbles through his yawn.

"Good night Bear" Ana kisses him and then we turn his light off and leave his room, leaving his door open slightly.

When we get into the hallway I pull Ana into my arms.

"You ok babe? You seem tense?" She pulls back slightly so she can see my eyes.

"Not really, I need to talk to you about something. Why don't we go downstairs and have a glass of wine and I can tell you what's happening?"

"Okay, let me just give Pheebs a kiss goodnight and I'll meet you down there"

I head downstairs and pour us both a glass of wine and then settle back into the arm chair by the fire. Ana walks in and I pat my lap. She takes her wine and then sits astride me like she always does so we are eye to eye. I take a sip of my wine and then lean forward and kiss her so the wine goes into her mouth.

"Yummy" she whispers and then kisses me again. She starts grinding herself down onto my cock and I almost forget what we need to talk about.

"Baby, baby wait. I promise that we will finish where this is going later but I need to talk to you"

"Okay, go ahead" I take a big breath and wrap my hands around her slender hips.

"Welch called me a little while ago. They received intelligence that Elena Lincoln was down in Panama and about an hour ago it was reported that a she has been killed in a car crash. I'm waiting for Welch to confirm it now"

"Wow, ok. Are you ok?" she asks concerned.

"Yeah I'm fine. Don't get me wrong, I wished that I was able to look her in the eye as she was jailed but I guess this way, she will never hurt anyone again" I shrug just as my phone rings in my pocket.

"Grey"

"Sir, facial recognition software on the scene confirmed it was Elena Lincoln. She's dead, Sir"

The moment he says it I feel the tension leave my shoulders

"Thank you Welch" I disconnect the call and throw my phone on the sofa opposite us.

"It was her. She's dead" Ana nods her head and then snuggle into my chest holding me tight.

"Are you sure you're ok?"

"Yes baby I'm fine"

"Do you need to talk about it?"

"There's nothing to say. Shes dead, she will never hurt anyone again"

"I think that from this day forward, we never say her name, never think about her and just forget she ever existed"

"Sounds like a plan, Mrs Grey. Speaking of plans, don't we have a baby to make?"

She leans forward and gently kisses my lips.

"Race you too the bedroom" she screams and bolts off my lap, running towards the stairs. I give chase and catch her just as she enters our bedroom. I pick her up and toss her on the bed and crawl on top of her.

I look into her beautiful blue eyes and thank god that she is mine.

"I love you so much, Anastasia. I can't even put into words just how much you mean to me. Thank you for choosing me. For giving me my own family. For loving me" the emotion makes my voice crack and she gently caresses my face with her delicate hand.

"I love you too, Christian. Your children love you to the moon and back and you are, by far, the best husband and father that a girl and children could ever ask for"

I lean down and press my lips to hers and the passion over takes us.


Nine months later, almost to the day, we welcomed our second daughter into the world.

Ella Marie Grey became our third child and two years later we welcomed another little boy Who we named Matthew Carrick Grey.

Ana and I had what I can only describe as the perfect marriage. We raised our kids at the house on the sound and apart from a few silly arguments here and there, it was smooth sailing.

Teddy grew up and much to my mothers delight, became a doctor. He works at Seattle Grace hospital and he is one of the top paediatric doctors on the West Coast. He married a girl he met in college and has two little boys named Nathan and Bradley.

Phoebe studied international business at Cambridgeshire University in England. She graduated top of her class and now works at Grey House where she is being groomed to become the CEO when I step down. She married Andreas son Caleb just two years after college And they have a boy and a girl. Their little boy is called Christian and their little girl is called Anastasia Grace.

My baby girl Ella, followed In Her mother footsteps and studied at WSU. She majored in English but so far, she hasn't decided what to do as a career so instead she is taking off with Elliott's daughter Brooke, to tour Europe for the next six months.

My youngest, Matthew is studying at the Yale where he got a full ride due to a football scholarship. His major is economics and foreign business but his dream is to be a professional football player for the Seattle Seahawks. With the talent he has, I have no doubt that he will make it.

As for Ana and I?

We lived happily ever after.

THE END
