Reunite

Chapter 39

I sipped the red wine slowly and watched Kate and Elliot dance like no one was watching, I smiled widely and lightly sighed. I hadn't seen Christian for most of the night, he was busy creating business with his clients. I watched the floor become more and more crowded as the night went along, people also became more intoxicated as the alcohol was free for the night.

I downed the rest of my wine and glanced around once again, I was on edge all night because what happened last time we were at one of these events. I finally caught sight of my boyfriend who stepped in and out of people as he walked towards me, he half smiled and grabbed my hand.

"Looking so tense.", He bellowed over the music in my ear, I put my hand on his shoulder and pushed him back whilst laughing.

"Christian! My eardrum, the music may be thumping but I'm not deaf.", I remarked, he raised his eyebrows and grinned.

"You are something else.", He stated, he pecked the top of my hand and squeezed it tightly. "My brain is frazzled.", Christian said, we strolled away from the dance floor and more behind the back of the venue.

"Much quieter over here.", He nodded in agreement as I continued. "Did you meet new clients or confirm any business?", We sat in a small booth, it was candle lit and had leather seats.

"A few deals. Figures have been thrown at me all night, felt like the interviews were just the same and I'm sure the photographs have blinded me.", I giggled and rested my head on his shoulder, he kept our hands intertwined and also leaned into me.

"I'm deaf and you are blind. We make a right pair don't we?", Christian unexpectedly kissed me slowly, I was taken back at first but lost my hands through his hair. He pulled back and smirked as I caught my breath, he leaned in and pecked my lips and pulling back once again.

"Anastasia Steele. Miss Steele, I want to make a deal with you.", I turned my head to face his instead watching people dance, he stroked my jaw line and licked his lips.

"What deal?", I asked, I was intrigued.

"I would like to take you to the playroom tonight.", I could have jumped leather settee and danced around celebrating like a fool. Instead I kept my calm but on the inside it was the opposite, I was flipping around everywhere.

"Make it last long.", He narrowed his eyes and smirked, he kissed just behind my ear and began kissing my neck. "Christian, wrong place. Wait until later.", He pulled back and cleared his voice.

"If I take you to the playroom tonight you have to promise me you behave?", I giggled and shook my head, his face stayed serious as he shifted on the seat.

"Behave? I'm not a teenager.", He rolled his eyes at me and I gasped in sarcasm. "Did you just roll your eyes at me, Grey?", He grinned and eventually chuckled.

"I did, what are you going to do about it?", I licked my lips and placed my hand on his knee, I slowly kept bringing my hand higher and let it rest just near his groin. I squeezed his leg and he jolted, he glanced around and tightened his jaw line.

"Hmm", He widened his eyes and grabbed my hand.

"Anastasia.", He jumped up and waved down some man in an expensive suit, I heavily sighed and thought about tonight. It had been ages since we went to the playroom, I was extremely nervous because nothing was the same with Christian in that room.

"Shot of tequila!", My head shot up and Kate and Elliot stumbled round the booth before sitting into their seats hard.

"Not for me!", I stated, they both glared at me the same time and shook their heads in disapproval.
