Chapter Nineteen : The Second Chance
The next day, at Dominic's apartment, after a passionate night together, Dominic and Hanna lays in bed, underneath the bedcover, both shirtless, wearing his boxer briefs and her undies with the bedcover covering the lower back of his body and her torso and lower half of her body.
Dominic stirs awake and looks at his girlfriend, Hanna, asleep, next to him.
"Hanna?" He said.
Hanna stirs awake and looks at her boyfriend, Dominic. "Hey, Dominic."
"I know you want to stay together with me, but we can't." Dominic said to her.
"What are you talking about?" Hanna asked.
"I'm saying that you should give Christian a second chance with your relationship." Dominic said to her. "Every relationship isn't perfect, but when he came to you, I could tell there's something still there between the two of you. Just give him another chance, Hanna. I'll always be here for you, as a buddy or a pal."
Dominic and Hanna exchange small smiles at each other.
"Okay." Hanna said.
Dominic and Hanna shares a kiss and they both lays there.
*~*~*
Later that day, Hanna had arrived at Grey Enterprises. The elevator dings and opens. She slowly walks out and slowly walks up to the receptionist desk.
(Hanna's Outfit)
"Hi, um, is Christian Grey here?" Hanna asked.
"Hanna?" Christian Grey said, wearing a suit, slowly walks into the lobby. "Hi."
"Hi." Hanna greeted him.
"Mr. Grey? You have a business meeting in an hour." The lady receptionist reminded him.
"I won't be long." Christian Grey said to her. "Hanna? I'm really happy to see you."
"Can we talk?" Hanna asked.
"Sure." Christian said.
And Christian and Hanna walks inside his office and sits down in the sofa chairs.
"So, what do you want to talk about?" Christian asked.
"I forgive you." Hanna told him, which surprises Christian. "I know you didn't start out like this . . ." She trailed off, glancing around at his office and his suit. " . . . And maybe, I was cautious about you, not knowing what I was getting myself into, but you and I have different things that we like and enjoy. You're Christian Grey, and Me, I'm just Hanna Coleman that loves video games."
"Hanna? I should be the one apologizing to you." Christian said. "I knew you weren't ready to be a part of my world. My life has been shit without you. And I admit, when I saw you with Dominic, I felt jealous because he made you happy, and that's what I want to be with you. I want us to be happy. And speaking of Dominic, how is he?"
"Dominic and I broke up." Hanna told him.
"Oh, I'm sorry about that." Christian said. "I am, really."
Hanna gives him a really look on her face. "Christian?"
"I am." Christian said. "Dominic is a nice guy. But to be honest, I sort of figured that your relationship wasn't gonna last long."
"Yeah, me too. Even though, I wanted to be with Dominic, he figured out that there was still something between us." said Hanna.
Christian gently holds Hanna's hand in his. "I was wrong to put pressure on you about my red room, so, whenever you're ready, or whenever you feel comfortable about going that extra mile in the red room, just tell me."
"Okay." Hanna said.
Christian and Hanna exchange small smiles at each other.
"I don't want to lose you again." Christian said to her.
"Or to another man, you mean." Hanna said with a small smile, having picked up on his envious.
"That too, I guess." Christian said.
Christian and Hanna exchange small chuckles with each other, making amends with their relationship.
*~*~*
That late afternoon, Christian and Hanna had arrived at Christian's penthouse with her duffle bags and she settled down with herself.
In the kitchen, Miss. Jones is showing Hanna to cook salmon in a pan at the kitchen countertop.
Christian slowly walks inside and looks at them. "Smells good in here."
"I'm showing Hanna how to cook salmon in a pan." Miss. Jones said.
"How much garlic should I add?" Hanna asked Miss. Jones.
"To your liking." Miss. Jones replied.
"Okay." Hanna said, and sprinkles some garlic on the salmon.
"I have a meeting to get back too, I'll be in my office." Christian said.
"Okay." Hanna said.
"Can't wait to eat salmon." Christian said, and slowly walks away.
"Me too." Hanna said.
Miss. Jones and Hanna exchange small smiles at each other and continues to cook salmon and vegetables.
*~*~*
Afterwards, Christian and Hanna are sitting at the table in the living room, eating their plates of salmon and vegetables; carrots, broccoli and potato hash.
"This is really good, Hanna." Christian complimented with a small smile. "You did good with the salmon and vegetables."
"Yeah, Miss. Jones observed the salmon, but I cooked the vegetables in a crockpot." Hanna said.
"Still, you did good." Christian said.
"Can you cook?" Hanna asked.
"Not really." Christian replied. "I just get takeout."
"I can teach you how to cook if you want." Hanna said to him.
Christian small smiles at her. "Thank you, that's nice of you. How do you know how to cook?"
"The food channel." Hanna told him.
"You're kidding, right?" Christian said with a surprise expression on his face.
"Nope." Hanna said. "There's a lot of food and dessert recipes on the food channel that you can try. I have a laptop so, we can check it out."
"Sure." Christian said. "I love you, Hanna. And I appreciate you giving me another chance."
"Love you too, Christian." Hanna said to him.
Christian and Hanna exchange small smiles at each other and continues eating their food.
