A Good Wedding Reception

                                    

                                          
Christian 
I don't know why but I asked Anastasia out to dinner and we got overheard by Elliott who then invites himself and begs her to bring Kate with her. She tells him that she won't be part of setting her friend up with anyone who thinks women are expendable. Her pointed look tells me she knows about my playroom antics. I am thinking about it and wonder why she accepted my dinner invitation. Elliott actually gets Kate to join us along with Mia and Oliver Davis. I don't know what he said to them, but they agreed to have dinner at my penthouse. I suspect it was the penthouse that got them to say yes. 
Anastasia 
Now we have three couples who are attending dinner at Christian's penthouse. Dad and Elizabeth went somewhere quiet for their honeymoon. I don't blame them at all after everything they have been through all the time we have been in Seattle. I arrive at the penthouse and ride up in the elevator and thinking I am early. I got off the elevator and everyone was already there. Christian greets me and says that dinner should be ready soon. Gail finally announces dinner and we all head to the dining room and we are served a delicious meal. Christian sends off to Taylor after the desert and we all clean up the dining room and the kitchen. He has us choose movies to watch. 
Elliott
Kate's curiosity got the better of her and I gave her a tour of Christian's penthouse. This was during the kitchen cleanup process. The storage room peeked her interest because of it's location. She thought it was an odd location for a storage area and tried the door. About that time one of Christian's guys told us that we were asked to join everyone in the entertainment room. Talk about timing. 
Kate 
There have been rumors about Christian Grey being a dominant or gay. So this locked room has me curious. My curiosity was getting the better of me until we were asked to join the others in the entertainment room. His place is huge and multi level. Elliott told me that there is a helipad on the roof as well. We get to the entertainment room and movies are being discussed. Finally the choices were made and we sit back n the individual sofas with cup holders in the arm ends and they recline. It's weird but it looks like the screen adjusts. We had a really great time. Christian and Anastasia are really close friends at this point. I knew she was doing things here in Seattle but like everything she does, she can't discuss it. Elliott is really giving it his best shot of getting a real date. 
Mia
Oliver and I barely noticed the others we were so wrapped up in talking about things we have done and where we have been. I have to remember that he is military and he works for Anastasia. He can retire and can go to school if he chooses to. Right now he will be working with Anastasia. We get closer and start watching the movies. 
Oliver
I am not sure how to act with Mia since we are with her two brothers and they might have dates as well, but that doesn't mean they aren't watching me with their sister. There is no doubt the scary movies were picked by the brothers for effect. I put my arm around her and I hold her hand if she lets me. This place even has a fridge and it is fully stocked with movie type beverages and snacks. It's great I have been here a few times, but never been in here. Mostly the security offices and the kitchen, dining room and a conference type of room. We all started talking to each other and we were enjoying each other's company that we started getting exhausted. Christian had us stay in three guest rooms. Mia and Elliott had their own rooms. Elliott loaned me some clothing and Mia loaned Anastasia and Kate some clothing. I am sure Anastasia swam in them though. 
Kate
Elliott tried his best to stay in my room, but I wasn't having it. Finally he gave up and went to his room and I locked my door. They had everything you needed in the guest room and the bathroom. I took a bubble bath and went to bed after I fi I shed my routine. Ma even had extra make up for us if we wanted it. 
Elliott
I can't believe that I can't get her to give me a kiss at least. I tried to go inside her guest room but she stopped me and said goodnight and locked the door. I go to bed disappointed but she wasn't mad at me at all, but she reminded me that she is looking for more than sex. I go shower and go to bed and dream about Kate.
Christian 
I kiss Anastasia goodnight at her door and it deepens and we say goodnight and she shuts her door and locks it. I got a few kisses during the movie and I held her in my arms and against me. It felt nice. 
Anastasia 
Christian kissed me and held me during the movies and then he kisses me at the guest room door and we said good night and I locked the door. I am really attracted to him, but we need to discuss the fact that I am no submissive and will never be one. 
Mia
I tried to get Oliver to join me in my room, but he said it is disrespectful to sleep in my room with me. So he kisses me goodnight. He walks to his room.
Oliver
I am thrilled that Mia is attracted to me, but I don't have any plans of doing anything to Mia in her family's homes. It just isn't right at all. I was taught better than that.
