Our small vacation to Hawaii was amazing and much needed.

Our kids are amazing. Kate had her baby 4 weeks ago. Ava is a beautiful, sweet little blonde headed baby. I am her Godmother and Christian is her Godfather.

It is Friday and I sent my husband off to New York this morning. I am spending time with our children to try to keep my mind off the fact that my husband is so far away. I'm kind of scared because the last time he left for a trip, he was gone 3 months and Kate and I were kidnapped.

I know there will always be drama of some sort because of our financial and social status, as well as how irresistible my husband is. I'm just hoping for a semi-normal life for a little while. We just need some peace for a change.

After a fun filled day with our children, I put them to bed and go bathe and put on a simple silk nightie and call my husband on Skype and we have a sexy chat but it just makes me miss him more. I need him home.

I drift peacefully off to sleep while we are still talking.

I wake up in the morning and he is still on skype. He didn't hang up and that makes me happy. I watch his sleeping face and I go to shower and take the laptop with me to the bathroom and point it towards the shower so he can see me if he wakes up.

"sexy baby." I hear from my shower and look and he is smiling looking at me and I blush. "I love you Ana, but I have to go into work so take a lot of pictures of Avery's day and I will see you whenever I get home."

I sigh, "I love you too baby. Any idea when you will be coming home?"

"I don't know baby. I wish I did. I will call you after I'm done with my meetings."

"I'll talk to you later then, baby."

"Laters baby." He hangs up and I get back under the stream of water and cry again.

The birthday party was a huge success. Avery was so happy all day. I cannot believe she is 13 now. I pray that the teen years aren't too bad. We have enough stress with everything happening outside our family.

I take a lot of pictures as per my husband's request. He will be so upset that he missed this so I've decided to pack up the kids and head to New York. If we hurry, we can get there before he goes to bed tonight.

I asked Avery if she would like to see him today and she approved excitedly.

I talk to Sawyer and he readies the other Grey jet while we go and pack for our impromptu trip.

Once we arrive in New York, Sawyer takes us to our apartment here that I've never been to. We brought Gail and Helen along for the kids and so Gail can see Taylor.

Once we are in the parking garage of the apartment building, Sawyer calls Taylor to let him know that we are surprising Mr. Grey and we are coming up. We all get into the elevator and it takes us to Christian's apartment.

We get out of the elevator and it is late, so I go to put the kids to bed. I find their rooms easily. Of course Christian had rooms prepared for them. This makes me giggle. After the kids are down, I sneak into our room and I strip and climb into bed with Christian. I roll over and sit astride my sleeping husband and kiss his handsome face. I put my hand down into his boxers and lightly stroke him and I lean down and give him more kisses.

"Christian." I say to try to wake him up. "Christian?!"

His eyes finally flutter open. "Fuck me please." He smiles and flips us over and he quickly rids himself of his boxers and swiftly penetrates me. He fucks me hard and fast until we both come undone under his sexpertise. "Fuck baby. When did you get in?"

"About 20 minutes before I woke you up."

"Mmm… kids with you?"

"Of course." I smile at him.

"I love this surprise."

"We missed you. I have pictures of the party on my phone. I will show you in the morning. Avery said she had a fantastic time but wished you could've been there for her."

"Aww.. we will take her for a special day tomorrow. I will find out what there is to do that would appeal to teenagers. For now, I'd love to satisfy my wife some more."

"Don't you have to work tomorrow?"

"Not tomorrow. Monday. Tomorrow is completely clear, which is another reason I am so happy that you came. I had no idea what to do with myself for the whole day. Now will you let me love you?"

"Come and get it baby."

He smiles and penetrates me again.

We spend the next hour having sexual escapades and then we drift off to sleep peacefully in each other's arms. Fuck, I was only away from him for a day but it felt like a lifetime.

I wake up in the morning wrapped up in my HOT husband. Hot in more than one way. I turn around and give him a sweet kiss and I wake him up in his favorite way.

"You never cease to amaze me Mrs. Grey."

"I aim to please. Take a shower with me and then let's spend time with our children."

"Mmm… I would love to Mrs. Grey."

I slide off of him and go to the shower and he is hot on my tail.

We have a round of shower sex before we get clean. After we get dressed, we leave the room and find our children eating breakfast with Helen and Gail.

Avery is the first to see Christian. She runs to him and wraps her arms around him. "Daddy!! I missed you so much. I have to tell you all about my party but I need to go finish eating first."

"I can't wait to hear about it." He kisses and hugs all of our children and I kiss them all on their heads and we grab our plates and eat with him and they all take turns bragging about Avery's party.

The rest of the day we spend with the kids. We leave the smaller kids with Helen and Gail and we take Avery to a Broadway show. She absolutely loved it. "I want to do that someday!"

"You are smart and talented and I'm sure you can do anything that you set your mind to, Avery." Christian says.

"Thank you Daddy! I love you and Mom so much!! You're so supportive of my dreams and you both are just amazing."

We smile at our amazing daughter.

"We love you too baby girl." I say.

After we get back to the apartment, we spend the rest of the day with our amazing family.

After the kids are in bed, we make love and then I drift off to sleep in my wonderful husband's arms.

2 Days later

We are going back to Seattle today. We had such a peaceful stay in New York as a family, I'm hoping Seattle can be as peaceful.

It is kind of bittersweet going home. I will miss New York but we need to get back to our lives. We've already pulled Avery out of school for 2 days until we get home.

Next weekend, just my husband and I are going on a small anniversary vacation In the Bahamas, where I'm sure we own yet another home. The kids are staying with the Greys and Helen will be helping them out.

5 months later.

Jason and Liam just turned 1 a couple days ago. Teddy and Phoebe are 3 and Michael is now 2. Our kids are really growing up on us too quickly.

5 months ago, my husband and I had our 4th anniversary. Our anniversary vacation was only 2 days but it was so amazing and so relaxing. If we didn't have 6 kids at home, we might've just stayed out there. It was a great time.

Today, we are going in to work. We dropped Avery and her security off at school. Teddy and Phoebe start school next year.

My husband drops me off at work with a sweet kiss. "Have a great day, Mrs. Grey."

"You too, Mr. Grey." I give him another sweet kiss and hop out of the SUV and Sawyer and Prescott come in with me.

I go straight to my office and find a mess on my desk. I seem to have slacked off on my work so I'm going to have to start working later to get caught up. I decide to text my husband.

Baby, I am WAY behind on my work so I will probably have to start working overtime a lot. -A

I take a picture of the mess on my desk and send it to him.

Get someone to help you baby. I understand if you have to work late. I will pick up the slack with our children. They will understand. I love you Mrs. Grey. -C

He is so sweet.

I love you too baby. -A

I spend the day working on my contracts and I ask Hannah to help with manuscripts.

I finally call it a night at 9 pm and Sawyer takes me home. I brought a couple of manuscripts with me to work on at home. I must have fallen asleep because I wake up warm in my bed. I look around and my husband isn't in bed. I get up and change into my nightie and put on a robe and I find him in his office. I peek in and see him on the phone. He is only wearing his pajama pants and that is enough to wake up my libido.

I clear my throat so that he knows I'm here. He smiles at me and signals for me to sit on his lap.

I do and I start kissing his neck, soliciting a growl from him. "I'll call you back tomorrow. Something just came up unexpectedly."

He hangs up and he kisses me. "How did I get to bed?"

"Sawyer carried you. I didn't know until I saw him carrying you. I think he might like you."

I giggle. "doubtful baby. I don't have a penis."

He looks at me weird. "He is gay Christian. He is dating the man he is living with. He works at GP with me."

"Ahhh.. how did I not know this?"

"He was rejected by his family whenever he came out to them. That's why he is okay with working so much. I think he is just afraid to let people know because he doesn't like to put himself out there so he can be rejected again."

"Oh. Okay. Can I take you back to bed?"

"Please do, Mr. Grey."

He smiles at me and kisses me feverishly and carries me to bed and makes love to me until I can't fight sleep anymore and I fall asleep safe in his loving arms.

The next day at work, I get a visit from detective Clark.

"How can I help you Clark?"

"it is about Jose Rodriguez."

"What about him? He is in jail right?"

"Actually, he was released due to overcrowding. I just had to come and let you know."

I gasp. "So he is free?"

"Yes. Mrs. Grey."

I shake my head. "Thank you for letting me know. I need to let my husband know so that we can up our security."

"Good idea. Let me know if you have any problems."

"Will do." He nods and gets up and leaves the room. I start crying. I decide to pack up some more manuscripts and go to see my husband in person.

When I arrive at the 20th floor, I don't see Andrea around so I walk directly to my husband's office and I enter. Andrea is sitting across the desk from him. "Christian. Is this a bad time?"

He looks up at me. "Of course not. I was just working on my schedule with Andrea so I can spend more time at home with the kids. What is wrong?"

I sigh. "Jose was released from prison due to overcrowding."

I start crying again. He comes around his desk and holds me. "Andrea, you got the jist of what times I won't be available. You can go back to your desk."

"Yes, sir."

"Would you like to go home? We need to double up on security so we should go home anyways."

I nod. "let's go home. I need a nap and I'd like you to lay with me until I fall asleep."

He takes my hand and we leave Grey House and head home.

He takes me to bed and lays with me until I drift off to sleep in his arms.
