Today was a special day, it was Liv and Elliots anniversary. He had it all planned out, ready as ever.
Liv woke up, expecting to have her husband next to her, but the bed was cold. She slowly got up and walked to the kitchen. "Morning" she said. "Morning babe" "hey I got a meeting, i'll be gone for a bit, see you later" he said giving a kiss on the forehead. She was confused. Did he forget?
She texted him asking what he wanted for dinner, hoping he would respond with something like what do you mean it's our anniversary I already have reservations. But instead. He simply said whatever you want. She brushed it off, hoping he had some sort of surprise.
She walked back into the bedroom to take a shower. As she turned on the water, she noticed that there was a note on the shower door. :liv, we need shampoo. Oh, she thought. Did he really forget? There was no way he forgot, or was there?
At work Elliot was calling the restaurant to make sure they knew what to do, and making sure that everything would work out. He couldn't focus on work, he was so excited. He had been planning this forever.
Liv walked out into the living room to see Sophie feeding Lucas. "Hey mom" She said. "Hey" Liv said. "Everything ok?" Sophie asked. " I don't know, I can't figure out if your dad remembered that today is our anniversary or not" Sophie knew about the plans, so she went along with it. "Oh, i'm sure he did. I wouldn't worry about it too much" she said. "Yeah, you're probably right."
Liv's phone beeped as Elliot texted her. Elliot: hey, do you know anything about a women named juanish? Of course it was work. Liv:no, I don't think so, why? Elliot: Just wondering, it's for the case. It really wasn't, he was just trying to seem normal so she wouldn't suspect anything.
Elliot packed up his stuff at work, and ran down to his car to get his clothes ready. He got in his car now in his nice clothes, and drove to the pier, being sure that he had enough time. As he got there, the sun was just starting to set, he had to get ready.
Back at home, Liv got a text from Elliot. Elliot:hey babe, I need your help on a case, we are down at the pier. Just warning you there are cameramen at the scene, so look nice. She put on a nicer outfit, and got in the car.
As she drove she couldn't help but think how weird it was that they were going to the scene this late at night, it was dark outside. She pulled up,and there was nobody but Elliot, standing at the end of the pier. She walked down to the end, and noticed he was wearing a suit. "What's going on?" she said, getting a little choked up. "Happy anniversary babe" he said as suddenly, on the beach an unseen screen lit up. He led her down and they sat together on the sand. A video that Elliot had made of their cute moments, including pictures of their wedding, honeymoon, pictures of the kids, and other cute moments played. Behind the screen a man playing a guitar was singing Liv's favorite song "you and me" by Lifehouse. She began crying. At the end, it said turn around. When she did, the beach lit up, with lights spelling the words I love you. Liv held him tight, and said "I love you babe" Then Elliot pulled out a slip of paper, and began reading it. "Liv, these last 5 years of marriage have been the best years of my life, you have showed me the true meaning of happiness. I told you when we got married that i'd do anything to make you happy. I am so happy to be with you, and I can't wait for our trip to paris next month." Liv started crying even harder as she held him tighter. "Oh my god" she said. She had always said that she'd wanted to go to paris with her true love. "I love you more than anything in the world Liv"
