Anniversary

Violet's P.O.V

Sunlight streamed in through the blinds as I yawned and sat up on my bed, rubbing my eyes and groaning loudly before remembering what day it was.

It was my 3 month anniversary with Finnick.

I got up and stretched before heading to the bathroom, seeing Rosemary brushing her teeth and waving at me, I smiled and brushed my teeth after her and spit out mouthwash before brushing my hair and pulling on a tank top and shorts before heading downstairs to fetch a bowl of cereal.

Rosetta pointed at me with her cereal spoon and asked, "Heeeey! You look weirdly happy? Something happening?" I rolled my eyes as I headed over to reach for a bowl in a cabinet "Today is my 3 month anniversary with Finnick, so I'm guessing he's gonna take me somewhere special." I saw Rosetta smirk slightly as she stuck a spoonful of cereal in her mouth, "Yep, more like his bed!" I felt my cheeks warm up as I almost drop the bottle of milk, my eyes widening, "H-Hey!" I stuck my tongue out at Rosetta as she finishes up her bowl of cereal as I pour myself my own bowl, rolling my eyes playfully as Rosetta sticks her tongue back out at me before skipping off to her room. I finish up my bowl and hear someone pad down the stairs and wrap their arms around my waist, I gasped quietly and looked back to see a pair of green eyes looking back at me with a smile on their lips. It was Finnick.

"Morning." I responded softly.

"Hmm.. Good morning." I heard his sleepy voice reply back.

"Do you know what today is, sleepy head?" I chuckled,

"Yes! I do! Our anniversary, right?"

"Yay! You remembered!" I exclaimed, smiling.

"How could I forget?" I heard him chuckle behind me before pulling away.

"Are you gonna take me out somewhere nice?" I asked and batted my eyelashes.

"Yes! I will! Wear something pretty around 7." He winked and headed upstairs, a light blush on my cheeks as I head over to the living room and faceplanting onto the couch, sighing quietly and turning on the TV, deciding that a little nap wouldn't hurt.

I groan quietly as my body begins to function again, opening my eyes to the sight of a sticky note on my forehead, a smile curls up on my lips as I take it off of my forehead before reading it.

Violet,

I made reservations at Nando's at 8 so hopefully you'll have enough time when you wake up and read this. I probably took a nap too so if I'm still asleep wake me up so we can get ready.

-Finn

I blushed slightly at the note to know that he was taking me to the most romantic restaurant in the Capital before looking over to the clock on the wall to see the time. 6:37, so I had plenty of time to get ready, I got up and stretched before heading up and into Finnick's room, already hearing his soft snoring as I opened the door and sat next to him on the bed, shaking him lightly.

"Finnick!" I whined as he woke up, slurring.

"Hmm? Oh, shit right! What time is it?"

"6:40, so no need to worry. We have some time to get ready." I replied before kissing his lips lightly and getting up, winking "I'm gonna go get ready!" I stated before marching off to my room, taking out a pale pink dress that was tied with a bow at the waist, smiling and placing it on my bed before rushing off to take a quick shower and dry my hair, looking over at the time. 7:00, crap. Better hurry. I slip on my dress and put on a pair of flats whose color matched my dress before hurrying off downstairs to Finnick who was waiting for me in a stunning black suit, I smiled brightly and hugged him gently before following him to my car, watching him in the driver's seat before getting into the passenger's and driving off, getting at the restaurantat roughly 7:35, although we get escorted to our booth early. We ordered our food and talked, flirted, laughed as our food was being prepared, although we talked a bit less when it came, though it was amazing! No wonder they called this the best in the Capital! Finnick took my hand and gave me a charming smile, before turning his body to face me.

"Violet, these 3 months of us together have been the best in my life. You were the last piece missing to the jigsaw puzzle I called my heart, and I've never felt this way about someone until I met you. You mean the world to me."

I smiled softly as I felt tears welling up in my eyes, quickly blinking them away as Finnick took out a square box from his pocket and handed it to me, my eyes quickly scanning it before opening. There laid inside was a heart shaped locket with the initials V+T engraved on the front, I opened it and saw a collage of very small pictures of me and Finnick together, it must've taken forever to make every single one of our pictures small enough to fit in the locket. I closed it and pulled him into a tight hug as a tear rolled down my cheek, feeling his finger wiping it away tenderly when we pull away.

"Finn, it's beautiful.. Thank you. Ya know I have almost the exact same gift for you." I reply and giggle quietly, watching Finnick quirk a brow as I pull up a bag from underneath the booth, knowing he didn't know I had sneaked in the bag from my trunk without him noticing when I had to 'go to the bathroom'. I pulled out a scrapbook of much bigger sizes of each of our pictures, a wide smile curling up on Finn's lips as he takes it in his hands and kisses my cheek, skimming through the pages as each one was beautifully decorated in pictures of the both of us.

After sharing our gifts and having a playful argument with Finnick over who gets to pay the bill, which he won, we head home. As I head inside I turn to Finnick and ask him,

"Hey Finn. Why do you like me?"

"Too many reasons to say. And I don't like you..

I love you.
