The test

With her eyes closed, Ana smiles when Christian comes through the door of their bedroom, proud to be able to sense her husband's presence without having to see him.

"Where did you go?"

"Oh, I just had to retrieve something for me to read to you," he answers and a smug amusement carries heavily in his voice.

Her smile widens in anticipation. "What will it be tonight?"

With a chuckle, Christian slips under the covers to join his wife who still has her eyes closed, and unceremoniously drops a thick paperback pamphlet right on her abdomen. Ana's eyes pop open in surprise.

"What is that?"

"This, my dearest, is a test," Christian purrs seductively. "A test to see if you were truthful."

"What?? What do you mean, truthful?"

Ana shoots up from her formerly comfortable lying position in bed, only for Christian's laughter and hands to stop her.

"Relax! It's not what you think."

He pushes her onto her back and envelopes her in his strong arms with his head tucked into her neck. After he cherishes her soft skin with open mouthed kisses that make her squirm in sensual delight, he grins against her shoulder and bites it playfully before he whispers into her ear.

"No, Mrs Grey. Too many times did I have to listen to that theory of yours that I could as well just read the phone book to you and it would surly make you come. And I wouldn't be your loving, quote 'sex-on-legs' end quote, devoted husband-"

"Let's not forget kinky!" Ana interrupts, now grinning widely, too.

"-let's not forget kinky husband, if I didn't make you come in every possible way. You know, we aim to please."

His hands slowly slip from her sides toward her chest and Ana's breath hitches in anticipation. But to her surprise, they deviate from their usual path and end up on the paperback. With a swift move, Christian grabs it and sits up to lean back against the headboard, the phone book in his lap, and opens it.

"So, let's put that theory to the test," he grins down on her and then studies the written information in his hands, smugness dripping from his voice.

"Anthony Kevin Aaron, also known as Anthony Kevin Aaron-Matthews, age 71, lives in Seattle, Washington..."

The giggle, that Christian would hang the moon and stars for to cause in his wife, bubbles from Ana's lips and with a face splitting grin lightening up her features, she closes her eyes again and listens to Christian's deep, rich and velvety voice that never fails to elicit a shiver to run down her spine.

There is another theory she often voices to tease her husband - that there must be a natural law which always causes Christian Grey to get what Christian Grey wants. Of course, Christian always rejects the notion with a certain arrogance since he firmly believes it all just comes down to his drive and determination. But to Ana, there is no doubt in her already aroused mind that tonight all laws of Nature would apply once again and Christian Grey would get what he desired - for Ana to pass his test.

Which, of course, she did.

A/N: hi all, this is my first post in this fandom although some of you might know me from the FB groups already (*waves to the girls*). Thought I'd leave this little (unedited) Drabble here for your amusement - and further imagination ;-) Laters!
