"It's Our Anniversary…"
Prompt 14, E, Anniversary.
A.N.: My first one-shot that I'm posting! Enjoy!
Phoebe was exhausted. She had wasted practically half a day searching around for her friend but was unable to locate her blonde companion, much to her dismay.
"Where is she? She said she'd meet me here, yet she's a half hour late." Phoebe muttered to herself while sipping her vanilla float. She was in a booth at Slausen's staring out the window waiting for Helga to show up. Knowing Helga, the devious blonde probably got sidetracked and was causing trouble elsewhere. The brunette rolled her eyes in an amused way as numerous scenarios of what could've caught the blonde's attention ran through her mind.
Suddenly the door to the ice cream shop burst open and a anxious looking Helga stood framed in the doorway. Upon spotting Phoebe she relaxed and strolled casually up to her friend, hands behind her back. "Hey Pheebs."
Phoebe narrowed her eyes. "You're late."
A sheepish "Sorry." answered her. "I had to stop somewhere before coming here."
"Well by all means, just what was so important that made you get here so late?"
Suddenly her vision was obscured by a blur of colors and it took her a few seconds to realize that Helga was holding a bouquet of flowers to her. Roses no less. Pretty pink and yellow ones, and a single red one in the middle.
Blinking a few times before taking the gift, Phoebe smiled softly. "Why thank you, Helga. They really are quite lovely. What's the occasion?"
Helga grinned. "You mean you don't know?"
"Know what?"
"It's our anniversary."
"Really?" The brunette seems intrigued.
"Yep." Helga took her by the hand and helped her stand up. "Can you believe it's been well over a decade since we've met?
"How time flies, eh?" Phoebe smirked.
Helga laughs and begins to lead her friend out of the shop.
"Where are we going?"
"Well we have to celebrate don't we?" This time Helga was the one smirking.
"Hmm, what did you have in mind?" Phoebe asked with one eyebrow raised smiling.
The only reply she got from her taller friend was a another grin and gentle squeeze of her hand.
And as the two of them walked Phoebe thought to herself that perhaps this time she'll just keep quiet and wait and see what was in store for her. After all the best surprises are the ones that you don't see coming.
And of course with Helga around, she expects nothing less than that from the blonde.

This my first prompt that I posted for Livejournal and now I'm posting it here. Excuse me if these two aren't in character. I was in a fluffy mood this morning. Plot bunnies snuck up on me! It was horrible! They were so fluffy and cute and evil and I couldn't resist! xD See if you can figure out the hidden meaning behind the color of the roses ;D.
