Waking up with a hangover is something Christian has not done since he was 15 years old. This morning his head is not only banging but he finds himself wrapped around an unknown female. He wanted to get a look at her face so he slowly pushes her hair back behind her ear.

Rihanna feels first a cool breeze across her face then a hand pushing her hair back. Her fluttering eyes finally adjusted to the blasting sun, that's when she jumps up remembering where she is.

"Oh my gosh! I am so sorry Sir...." Rihanna begins to stutter worrying about being reported and losing her job.

Christian puts his hands up to ask her to calm down. "It's okay, no worries.... Can I ask you something?"

She nods.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Rihanna, your day time housekeeper....still, I hope. Sir I really need this job."

"Rihanna, please stop. You're not going to lose your job."

They both get up, head inside.

Rihanna headed to the kitchen grabs a bottle of water and a couple Tylenol from her purse. "Mr. Grey, I hope I'm not over stepping but I...." She is stopped in her tracks with him stepping out the closet in nothing but briefs.

Christian gave a slight smile noticing her, noticing him then say, "Is that water for me?"

Rihanna snaps out of her day fantasy telling him yes. "I had some Tylenol in my purse didn't know if you had some or not, for the hangover I believe you're suffering from. Also I wanted to know what you would like for breakfast? Did you want me to make enough for your security?"

"I'll take an omelet with toast and coffee. I don't want to put all that on you, cooking for my security crew."

"It's no big deal and it happens to be my job."

"Okay well I'll take a quick shower and be right out."

💜(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)💜(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)💜(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)💜

Christian finish up his shower and headed to the table, thinking he was going to see Taylor, Ryan and Sawyer but nope they were no where around. Stepping in the kitchen again no one else except for Rihanna.

Rihanna turns around and faced a fully dressed Christian this time. "Oh, Mr. Grey I was going to bring it to you and your guard got their's as well."

"Aren't you going to eat? We did wake up together so I know for a fact you haven't eaten yet. Come-on don't make me eat alone."

Rihanna takes a seat next to Christian. "Icebreaker, what brings you to the islands? Business or pleasure?" She ask before a bite of her omelet.

"In a way neither. I'm on what some may call a subbatical. This may be a little island, but I know you know who I am."

"I do but technically it came from you."

"How is that?"

"You talked a little in your sleep."

"Really? So I'm guessing Taylor is going to bombarded with some nosey asses pretty soon?"

"I don't understand."

"You selling my information to the highest bidder."

Wow trust must be an issue around him she thought to herself. "Well I can't speak for others but I'm not that type of person. Also from what I did learn your having a friendship and trusting issue."

"What is it that I divulge."

"It's not like you spoke in complete sentences but I learned that you have a touching problem, that some woman named Anastasia turned your life upside down. You also kept mentioning someone named Elena. I can't understand all that was said but I did hear how you felt you hurt Ana first so what happened after was deserving. You're having trouble accepting loving someone that will never love you back." She say picking up their plates.

"So what....now I look like a pathetic ass bitch to you."

Rihanna shakes he head no. "I see you have a self loathing problem and you need to love yourself before finding and loving someone else. I think this is a great place for you to find yourself and do a few things that you love, step out of that comfort zone, have some fun. Which I think you miss out on during your teenage years."

"Funny. You sound just like my therapist."

"That just means you have a good therapist."

"Okay, but you know this having fun thing is new to me so how about you be my touring guide and show me around?"

"I wish I could but I can't."

"Why not?"

"I have two jobs and I also have a one month old at home."

"Oh. I didn't know you had a family."

"Well.... My son is my family but it's just him and I."

"He's only one month old. Where is his father?... Sorry I don't mean to pry."

Rihanna didn't talk much about her personal life to people she knew better. This island is small and getting in to trouble was something she avoided at all cost. As she thinks about it, Christian is not from here, only here on vacation and it's not like their together.

"His father is no where to be found. You can say he went out for a gallon of milk and never came back."

"What a awesome guy." Christian say sarcastically. "How about you quit your second job and you show me around, show me how to have fun and I pay you for it."

"I don't know."

"Please. Believe me what I pay you your second job will not be needed."

"Hmmm....Okay we got a deal."

Rihanna has been showing Christian around for the past few days. They in a way have developed a routine, Rihanna would come to work, make everyone breakfast, then off to the area Rihanna wanted to show him. The two have also become foodies. The small island is known for their herbs and spices so they been enjoying all kinds of different cuisines.

"Where are you taking me RiRi?" Christian ask calling her by the nick name he gave her.

"We are about to try all kinds of sweet, mouth watering desserts. Have you ever had sweet potato cheese cake Chris?" Rihanna smiled still feeling a little weird calling him by his first name.

Christian can't believe he's more than okay with her calling him Chris, which no one else does. For some reason her calling him that made him feel special.

"I have had them separately but never together."

"Your going to love it."

She wasn't wrong he did love it. There next stop that day is Christian that is doing the picking.

"What are you up to? Where are you taking me?" She asked.

"I'm not telling you until we get there."

Pulling up to their destination, Rihanna sees exactly what Christian has in mind and she was not with it.

Christian sees her face and start laughing. "It's your turn to step out of that comfort zone of yours."

"Not happening Chris. No way in hell."

"Come-on it's no fun by myself."

"Okay. Take Taylor. Retired Marine you know he knows all about water, right Taylor?"

Christian is trying to trick Rihanna into going scuba diving.

Of all the four years that she has lived there this activity has never been appealing.

Taylor, listening to them makes him laugh. She is really getting him to live kind of blindfolded, it is funny in a good way to watch. He also is seeing a connection between the two that neither one of them realize. He is loving it, Christian hasn't mentioned Ana in days and nightmare free.

"Chris if I get stung by a jellyfish or bit by a shark it's your ass."

"Okay." He laugh at her dramatic act.

💜(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)💜(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)💜(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)💜

"Oh my gosh Chris that's was fun! I have to admit, I mean I have swam with dolphins but this was so different. Seeing all the colorful fish, and even the sharks which I was not trying to get close to. But still I'm sooo going to get your ass back for springing that on me." Rihanna confesses as they take their seats at a karaoke bar.

As they enjoy their drinks their names are called. Christian looks up and sees Rihanna getting up, coming over grabbing his reluctant arm.

"No way in hell. There is not enough alcohol in the world to get me to do this."

"I want you sober, your going to remember this moment. Now get your ass up."

Even though Christian followed her to the stage he planned on keeping his mouth shut.

Rihanna picked their song. To say Christian was about to step way out of himself is an understatement. As soon the music came on she started dancing, this was her jam it reminded her of home.

Christian was being hypnotized by her moves, he remembered watching Ana dance in his kitchen with no rhythm. Rihanna's body seemed to be pulling him to her and the song she picked 'LLCOOLJ Doin It's, wasn't making it any better reading the lyrics.

Rihanna had to start it because Christian was not down with singing let alone rapping, but some how she pulled him in and Mr. Christian Grey can rap.

Taylor literally choked on his drink, no one in the world would believe this sight of Christian rapping, laughing, missing lyrics but still going, just enjoying his self beyond belief.

The two are now a little tipsy walking along the beach.

"You know this was suppose to be your journey, but some how you seem to be taking me with you on this discovery mission."

"Talking about you, look at me, when I say that I've never gone a day without Grey Enterprise on my mind I mean it. But this whole month work, stress, my Seattle life hasn't bugged me at all. You have no idea what meeting you and the time we been spending together stopped me from doing something really foolish."

Rihanna knew what he was talking about but she wanted to keep his mind from going to that dark place.

"So my little Teddy Bear is sleeping over at his godmother's so you have me for the night. Follow me." She tells him while stripping down to her undies, running into the water. "Woo! This is colder then I expected. Christian come on, stop day dreaming and move your ass boy."

Christian snaps out of it, noticing her body and curves really for the first time. "I got your boy." He runs stripping down as well.

The two are now splashing around like kids. Having so much fun that she is oblivious to where her hands is landing. He on the other hand eventually notices that she is touching his chest, yet there is no pain.

Once out the water and two showers, they are now sitting in front of the TV.

"Thanks for the shirt. Today was insane." She say while yawning, falling back on the couch. "I'm not going to sleep just shutting my eyes for a little while."

Christian watches as she falls asleep, brushes her hair back off her face. Looking down at her, he admires her flawless skin and curvaceous body. What really is surprising him is when with her there is attraction but sex is not clouding his mind when thinking of her. Just getting to know her, being in her presence puts a smile on his face. Picking up her hand he hesitates at first but takes it placing it flat onto his chest. There is pain, no burning nothing but a warm feeling. He kept it there all night while he too fell asleep.
