Let her go, now

...


.

After reading Jose's note for the tenth or eleventh time, Christian and Ana sat on the hospital bed for a while, both silent, lost in their own thoughts.

The doctor then came in, and told them that he was fine now. Christian managed to recover so well in the past hours, and in such a rapid manner that the doctor had no choice but to discharge him.

"Thanks, doc" Ana said and began packing his stuff.

When she was done, he wore his leather jacket, and then they both walked out of the hospital.

The moment Ana slid behind the wheel of the car, she looked at Christian." What do you want to do?" she asked carefully, wishing she could make his suffering stop. He looked devastated!" Are we going back home like Jose advised, or are we going to keep looking for Gail?"

He shook his head in response. "I'm NOT giving up, Steele." Christian announced, very determined. "If you want to go back, I will pay for your plane ticket... but I'm still planning on finding her. Jose knows what I am, so I assume Gail does too."

"No, Christian...You won't get rid of me that easily, okay?" Ana responded." You are stuck with me."

At hearing that, he burst out into laughter. Not just a chuckle, but a full-on laugh.

"Stop laughing" she told him, and playfully hit him on his arm.

As she watched him laugh, Ana smiled, glad that even with all the setbacks they've encountered up until now, she still could make him laugh.

"Hey, remember what Jose wrote? You could die if you use your 'powers' too much" Ana warned." Be very careful, Christian..."

"Yes, mom... I'll be careful" He teased, and winked at her.

Ana chuckled in response, and shook her head." Let's go find Gail" She said, and then started the car.

.

Ana and Christian have been driving for two days, and were exhausted. So, they checked into a motel.

After a nice, long shower, she got dressed, and found Christian sleeping peacefully on his bed. She chuckled softly, as she heard him snore lightly. They had eaten already, so she wasn't hungry nor was she sleepy right now. After watching a TV show for ten minutes, Ana got up from her bed and grabbed a book.

However, she was unable to get into the story.

"I'm so bored" she whispered, and let out a deep breath.

Suddenly, her face lit up, as a wonderful idea popped into her head!

Ana immediately went to Christian to wake him up." Hey, wake up, sleepy head" she said, and gently tapped on his upper arm." Christian? Wake up."

But no matter what she did, he just wouldn't wake up. Ana got really annoyed and even raised her voice, but he kept on sleeping... was he dreaming? Must be about something nice, cause he had a smile on his face! Seriously?

"Christian!" she shouted at one point, making him wake up with a start." Wha- what's going on?"

He ran a hand through his hair and locked eyes with Ana.

She was pouting, her brows furrowed.

'So cute and adorable' were the words that popped into his head, while watching her like that.

"Christian, I'm so bored" he heard her say." I know that the purpose of this trip was to find Gail, so she would tell us more about your 'powers'. But, that doesn't mean we cannot have a little fun... right?"

He nodded in response." Sure... what do you wanna do?"

"Let's go clubbing"

.

.

Around 10:30 PM, Ana and Christian were both ready, and went out the door, locking it behind them.

Ana was wearing dark blue skinny jeans, a red top with a low decollete, a white jacket, white high heels, and her hair down.

Christian was wearing black jeans, a dark grey button down shirt and some sneakers.

While they walked towards the car, Ana observed her friend and noticed how HOT he looked. Really, really hot. Oh, come on! She couldn't deny that he was a gorgeous guy. Right? ( Even though they were not more than friends)

On their way to the club, Christian played some music. And of course, she had to sing along to it. 'We found love' by Rihanna was playing.

"We're so going to have a great time" Ana said aloud." Party Time!"

As Christian drove the car, he only nodded and was kinda glad that after all the setbacks they had to endure, they could blow off some steam by going out... have some fun like normal teenagers do.

"And we're standing side by side" he heard Ana sing, and watched how she danced in her seat.

As he looked at her, he couldn't help but feel something inside his heart. He always loved her even after their falling out. However, what he was feeling right now... what he'd been feeling these last few days, was something new... something foreign.

Something more.

If only Ana knew that he had been dreaming about her, before she had woken him up. Nothing naughty, but he kept thinking about it. In it, he kissed her passionately.

'Seriously, Grey?' he thought.

"We're almost there" he heard Ana say, taking him out of his thoughts.

.

.

They both had a fake ID, so they were allowed to enter. As they walked inside the club, Ana jumped up from excitement.

"Oh my God, I love this kind of music!" she exclaimed, and smiled widely.

"It's okay, I guess" Christian replied. In response, Ana looked at him and rolled her eyes at him.

"No really, I love upbeat songs I can dance to!" she told him.

After they had taken a seat at the bar, the bartender took their order. Juice for her and a coke for Christian.

While drinking their beverage, they talked about home.

" I've been calling my mom everyday, but she keeps asking when we will come back home." Ana told him, and then rolled her eyes a couple of times.

"Wow... seriously?"

" Uhuh... My mom always worked, when I was at home. I used to practically beg her for a little attention. And now that I'm on this trip, she wants to play mother?! Pfffff. I don't think so" Ana ranted.

"Well, my mom doesn't ask me to come home, she just calls me and orders me to come home." Christian confessed.

"I guess we both have some mommy issues." Ana pointed out.

It was not funny, but for some reason they both had to laugh about it.

~ Some time later ~

.

.

They were enjoying their drinks, when some song began to play. Ana got up, and began to walk towards the dance floor.

"Seriously?!" Christian said." Since when do you like dancing?"

"Come on! We're in a strange city in the middle of nowhere. No one knows us here... let's dance!" Ana said, and began to dance.

He shook his head in response." Not in the mood, Steele"

"Well, that's your loss, GREY" Ana replied, and turned around.

Even though she was on the dance floor, and he was at the bar, Christian kept his eyes on her. He made a promise to himself that he would look after her no matter what. And that's exactly what he intended to do.

As he watched her dance, his mouth fell slightly open at one point. She was an amazing dancer. "Wow"

And then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, another guy walked towards Ana and began to dance behind her.

Well, at that moment, Christian felt the green monster inside of him emerge...

Fortunately, he was able to talk himself down. She's not an object and she's most definitely NOT yours, so stop it!

And if she wanted to dance with some guy, that should be alright. Right?

At that, he ordered something stronger from the bartender. Christian took little sips from his glass, and observed the two.

They were dancing and talking now. The upbeat song ended, and they stopped dancing. Christian noticed that she wanted to come back to the bar, but the guy stopped her by grabbing her by her wrist. At that, Ana began tugging on it, trying to free herself, but the guy didn't let go.

Without a thought, Christian placed his glass on the table, while trying with all his might not to use his powers to hurt the man.

As he walked towards the dance floor, he thought.' He is so dead...'

"Let go of me" Ana said, but the guy named Brian, laughed.

"Awww. Come on. You know that you want to dance this song with me." he said." I know you want me."

"No, I want to rest a bit. I'm tired!" Ana said loudly.

"Come with me, so I can tire you out" he whispered in her ear, making her skin crawl.

Such a fucking PERVERT!

But before she could do a thing, Christian stood between her and the other guy.

"Let her go, before I break your hand." Christian warned.

"And who are you?" Brian asked, while giving him a challenging look.

But before he could reply, Ana said." He's my boyfriend, okay... Now let go of me, and leave us alone."

"Fine" she heard Brian say, and walked away, both his hands clenched into fists.

Ana sighed in relief, really glad that Brian decided to leave her alone, because seconds ago, Christian looked like he wanted to tear the guy to pieces...

She knew what he was capable of, and to expose himself in front of so many people was a bad idea. Also, there was a chance he could hurt himself like last time.

That was her biggest fear... and she could not let that happen. No, not on her watch.

"Are you OK?" She asked softly, while holding his hand, gripping lightly.

While doing that, Ana gave him a pleading look." Take it easy... I'm safe"

He let out a deep breath, and squeezed her hand also." I'm fine, Steele..."

At that moment another slow song was playing. It was 'Love's to blame' by Joel and Luke.

"OK, now let's go" Ana said, and motioned him to walk back to the bar, but he stopped her.

"Do you want to dance?"

As those words reached her ears, Ana nodded, for the first time in her life, speechless.

He gently placed his hands on her waist and pulled her a bit closer to him." You OK?" Christian asked." Did he hurt you? You wanna leave?"

In response, Ana shook her head." I- I'm fine, Christian" she replied and placed her hands on the back of his neck, dancing slowly with him.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes... one song then we can go"

"OK" He replied, and held her a bit loosely.

As they danced, they looked each other in the eyes. At one point Ana got lost in those gorgeous, gray eyes of him.

What was happening?! Suddenly, she felt so weak in the knees, his intense gaze making her tummy do somersaults.

'Seriously, Steele?!'

Ana was so confused... he was her best friend. Then why did she feel this way?

'I really should have a serious talk with the girls, because my feelings for Christian has become so confusing to me.' Ana thought, while dancing to this wonderful song.' Tomorrow I'm going to call Kate, cause I really need some girls' advice.'

"You doing OK, Steele?" she heard him say, the look in his eyes indescribable.

"Uhuh"

To prevent him from seeing how she was staring at his eyes, she rested her head on his chest, but oh boy was that a mistake!

His body felt so warm and all she craved right now was to hold him even closer and tighter... if that was even possible.

As they danced, Ana took in his scent, making all kinds of feelings wake inside of her.

'What was happening?'

And then the song ended, an upbeat song blasting through the club. The moment was gone, and they awkwardly walked over to the bar.

"So, ready to go?" he asked, after paying the bartender.

Ana nodded, a slight blush on her cheeks." Yes, let's go"

.

.

They were almost out of the club, when Christian received a text message.

It was Luke.

'Dude, you gotta leave that small town. Your mom forced me to tell her where you two are. Ditch your cell, dude. Then you should Abort, abort!'

"Great! Fuck..." Christian shouted." My mom is taking a plane and flying here. We have to get out of here fast."

"Okay, we will drive to the motel and throw our stuff in the bags and keep driving." Ana countered." Let's hurry"

"Agreed." He said.

They've almost reached the car, but then noticed three guys surrounding it.

One of them was Brian. Fuck...

"Oh my God! Christian, what are we going to do?" Ana asked with a shaky voice.

Two of them were carrying baseball bats with them.

"Don't worry, Ana" he replied, his voice toneless." I will protect you. No matter what happens, I will always keep you safe"

Ana wasn't scared for her, but for him. She was so afraid that he'd get hurt or even worse, if he got exposed or if he ended up dead from using his 'powers'.

Christian grabbed her hand, and stopped in his tracks a few meters from his car.

"Well, well. What do we have here?" Brian said, with a threatening voice. He then glared at Ana." You're gonna be so sorry for rejecting me"
