Fifty Shades Undone

Brothers and Sisters

Elliot POV

Kate's due date is fast approaching. She's moving slower and slower and getting more and more irritated with being pregnant. I know she is ready to have the baby. I am too. I'm eager to see our son or daughter arrive. We decided not to know the sex until it got here. There are some things that still need to be surprised. Unlike my little brother, I don't want to know the sex of my child. He's all about wanting to know the sex of the twins. I've never seen him like this in my entire life.

Christian has been completely different since Ana, but now since finding out he's going to be a father he's been intolerable. He has been buying every book on fatherhood and pregnancy. Asking me random questions. On top of worrying to death over Ana and how she's doing. Thank goodness she's awake, between Kate, Christian and his goon squad the tension is enough to cut with a chainsaw. Mom and dad are over the moon with both of us having kids.

Of course Christian is really rubbing it in that he's having twins and that he's more viral that I am. He's such a punk little brother. Hell until recently everyone thought he was gay. I didn't have a problem with him being gay, but damn bro at least confide in your big brother about it. He never was one to talk anyway, I used to tease the shit out of him when we were younger. He would beat the crap out of me because of it, then I'd get into trouble. If I'd only known about his crazy shit with Mrs. Lincoln, maybe I'd have been able to help him earlier. I don't know. At least Ana came along when she did, she not only saved him, she's saved our whole family, brought us together like we've never been before. Hell, without here I'd never had met Kate, that night was one crazy night for both me and Christian.

My poor Kate, I hope she has our baby soon. We are so excited to be parents. Ana was supposed to be there with Kate when she had our baby, right now I don't know if that is going to happen. I've talked to mom, she thinks Kate can go any day, especially with all of the excitement of Ana's fall. I hope so. I'm anxious, nervous and just ready to have our son or daughter here. I have the nursery ready for the baby, we just need the baby.

Kate and I will visit with Ana later today. Christian called and let us know she was awake. He doesn't know when she'll be able to go home though. She's still in a bit of pain apparently. I guess she hurt her foot pretty badly. Looks like she's going to be off her feet for a few months. According to Kate this is not going to please her one bit, I can only imagine. Kate doesn't like sitting still and is pretty stubborn, the two of them together are formidable and can bring both Christian and I to our knees with one look from us. I saw how formidable they are when we went to Aspen together ages ago.

Christian has already asked me to do an add-on to the Sound House for an office wing so Ana can feel better about working at home. He wants a conference room and a nice looking office for Ana and himself as well. I can do it since he has so much land and without taking away from the esthetics to the house itself. I've already got my crew working on getting the materials and prepping the land and outer shell of the house. I want it done as quickly as possible too, just like Christian, that way they can live at the Sound House and Ana won't be feeling cooped up in his glass tower like some canary in a cage.

Due to the immediate need, I'm working with a new designer, someone Kate suggested. Apparently her mom and dad had them redesign their place in Aspen as well and he was excited to be working for the Grey name. His name is Robert Thomas Ryder, his dad is family friend of Kate's. Robert received his masters in Design for Sustainability at Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), and his Bachelors at WSU Pullman in Architectural Sciences, so it looks like we can speak the same language when it comes to creating Christians and Ana's home office space. Once he finishes drawing up the designs, we will meet with Christian and show him for his approval. I'm fairly certain that he will approve, Robert already said he wanted lots of glass and sustainable reusable energy for everything in all of the rooms we will be adding on to the house.
