Woke- up, Christian is nowhere to be seen so I wrapped myself in our bed sheet and got in a nice welcoming shower. Washing my hair and shaved everywhere I can manage my injuries. Now squeaky clean and dressed in nice clean sweatpants and a t-shirt. Nurse Nora came to check in on me and gave me my medicine and change my bandages. It still has a bit of blood on it when she removed them. She applied ointment on my wounds then redress them both in clean bandages.

'How are you feeling, Miss Steele?' Nurse Nora asked me.

'I am feeling better after my shower.'

'Good, you should try not to move around very much Miss Steele. You should rest now.'

'I will. You know where Mr. Grey is?'

'I have no idea, ma'am.'

'Oh, okay. May I eat something?'

'Of course. I'll get Mrs. Jones to make you something.'

'Thank you.' I said laying back down on my pillow. Lay like this for a few minutes looking at the view out the bedroom window. Later pulled myself into a sitting position as I fired up my mean machine and started working through my ton of work e-mails. Hanna my assistant has e-mailed me, while I was in the hospital. This being my first day back in communication via my laptop. 

I start to work through almost all fifty e-mails. There are a couple of new manuscripts been admitted. I sat up completely, my injuries protested a bit and I set into work mode. Typing the briefs Hanna needs immediately and e-mail it back to her. I phoned her at the office it was just after lunch time. I was still talking to her when Christian walked back into the bedroom. Our eyes locked when he walked in and we never once broke eye contact.

'Yes- yes, I have. Good. If you can send them out before you go home that will be great. Of course. No, that's not necessary... Wonderful, mail them to me I'll read through them. Yes, that is all thanks, Hanna. Talk to you later, bye.' I hung up and Christian smiled at me where he sat cross legged on our bed.

'Miss Steele, you sound so sexy when you talk all business.' He said lacing our hands together.

'Do I now, but so do you Mr. Grey. Just more so.'

'Really?' I nod my head as I return his sweet smile. 'Shouldn't you be resting, Ana?'

'Yes, I guess I should but I have a bunch of manuscripts to work through.'

'Can't Hanna help you with them?'

'Not for the next two weeks. We are having three launches in the next two weeks and she's working hard on the e-books layouts and the presentations.'

'You doing well at work, Miss Steele.' He moved and lay down on his pillow with his hands behind his head.

'I'd like to think so. My boss's boss's boss is a very high demanding man. He would want only his employee's best performance at all times.' I said shyly smiling at my fifty, who in return is smiling his megawatt smile for me.

'He sounds like a control freak to me.' Christian said playfully playing along with his lope sided grin on his beautiful face.

'Oh, no not at all sir. Although he practices control in all areas of his life. He is deep-deep down a wonderful, caring and loving man.' Christian creased his forehead as if what I just said was hard for him to grasp.

'You think I'm a loving man?'

'Yes, I do with my whole heart.' He shook his head then look at his feet.

'Christian you really are. You're a wonderful loving, caring, sensitive man that I ever met, and I love you for it.'

'I love you too.' He said meeting my eyes with a panic expression I cannot place. Oh, my fifty if only I can take all your pain from you so you can see what everyone sees, that you are an extremely good man and that you do care about the people around you. That you are loved not just by me but your family and a few of your close work colleagues as well. How can I make him see that?

'You hungry?' He asked desperate to change the subject. Always using food to do it with. I put my head in my hands. Raking my hand through my hair as I focus back on him again.

'Mrs. Jones already made me something but I can get her to make you some lunch if you like.' I said looking at him as he turns on his side to look at me better.

'No I can do it. I'm just glad you ate something.' He made me blush as he kissed my cheek then scurry off to go get some lunch for himself. While he was away, I took a trip to the bathroom and got back to work. Working through the rest of my e-mails and got to work on their instructions. When Christian returned twenty minutes later I settle in with my first manuscript of six, I have to go through. He sat in the chair beside me going through his own e-mails on his BlackBerry. I looked at him and then back to my laptop then started to giggle and stopped quickly because of the painful effect in my side.

'What?' He asked sitting forward in his chair looking at me amused.

'Us.' I utter between pained giggles.

'Us?' He asked puzzled.

'Yeah, look at us the all corporate couple.' He chuckled at the point I am trying to make.

'I guess we are, although I would rather you be resting now than working.' He said with his smile still in place.

'Two manuscripts then, I'll rest. Promise.'

'Only two, Miss Steele.' He said then return to his e-mails on his phone. I have to admit he is typing so fast.

'Yes, sir.' I said, he looked at me with his shy smile.

'Good girl.' Then continued with his phone.
