Reunite

Chapter 15

"It's a pleasure meeting you, I hope you enjoy the evening.", I shook the clients hand and smiled widely, my event had came together so well. Everyone was talking in various small groups as waiters strolled around with small treats on their trays. I took a deep breath and added more red lip stick, it matched my long red dress with my black heels.

"Ana, this is amazing.", Alisha bundled over with her mouth full. "I've got so many contacts tonight, they are really enjoying themselves.", She continued chewing her food.

"The hard work paid off, I cannot wait to get home tonight and just relax.", She giggled and shook her head.

"Waiter!", The waiter backtracked his steps and Alisha grabbed the glass of champagne. "Please don't be a bore, drink up. You deserve it.", Without hesitation I took the glass and near enough downed it.

The lights dimmed and my two bosses walked up onto the small stage, everyone began clapping apart from Alisha.

"Do they think it's the oscars? Bit overdone with the lights Ana.", I rolled my eyes and shook my head.

"Shut up, stop drinking.", I angrily whispered, she muttered under her breath and watched our two bosses up on stage.

"Thank you all for attending this fantastic event this evening, it is a great pleasure to welcome you all here tonight. We hope you are enjoying your evening, especially with the champagne! We have a few special thanks to hand out tonight. Firstly, our director. John without you we wouldn't be here, we are so thankful for your input and hard work into the company.", She paused and turned the paper.

"She's one hundred percent banging John.", I nearly choked on my drink, I noticed a few heads turned round and glared at Alisha.

"Secondly, this event wouldn't have been so successful without our Anastasia Steele. She put in extra overtime to make sure the event went well, actually come and join us Ana.", I groaned and kept my head down, I was being pushed in the back by Alisha and eventually joined them up on stage.

"Hey everyone. Once again, thank you for showing your faces. It gives me great pleasure that you have joined us tonight, especially when Greys Anatomy is on!", There was a few chuckles but the light diverted, I saw a few faces in the small bunch of people and my heart sank.

He was standing with his hands in his pockets, the widest grin I've ever seen him wear and his brown hair was tousled.

"Enjoy the rest of your evening!", The lights came back on and I almost jumped off stage, I quickly walked in and out of the small groups of people and finally was standing in front of him.

"Good evening, Miss Steele. I have to say, my horrible journey was definitely worth seeing you dressed like this.", His eyes followed from my heels and back up to make eye contact again, his eyes glistened and he was still wearing a grin.

"You are here.", I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and held him tight as I could, he pulled away and stroked my cheek.

"Hey, everything ok? You seem tense.", I shook my head and half smiled.

"Immense event with important clients and also I wasn't expecting my boyfriend to show up.", I paused and continued. "You made me stutter on my speech.", I pushed him playfully.

"Your speech was wonderful. Anastasia, I'm really proud of you.", He leaned in and gently pecked my cheek.

"Ah! Your the guy who got beaten in the club.", We both looked over at Alisha who had another drink in her hand.

"Nice to see you again.", Christian replied, she giggled and grabbed my arm.

"His so fucking hot.", She whispered in my hair, I could smell the alcohol on her.
