A/N: In Finnick's POV
Her Special Day.
"Annie we're leaving." I tell her
"Where are you going?" She asks confused.
"I'm going to take Nick and we are going to go fishing." I smile.
"I can go with you." She smiles.
"No Annie this is some Farther son time." I smile.
She rolls her eyes.
"Okay but remember he can't really swim so if you go in the water-
"You worry so much." I say and kiss her forehead.
"I'm just saying. Why does a four year old need to learn how to fish?"
"Better late than never." I smile.
"Okay." She says.
"Nicky!" I shout.
He comes downstairs.
"Mommy did daddy tell you we are gonna-
"I just told her." I smile.
"Okay."
She picks him up and hugs him.
"Have fun sweetie." She says and kisses his cheek. "Make sure to stay with daddy. "
"Don't worry Mommy I will listen to him." He smiles and then looks to me.
"Okay let's go." I say and take his hand.
We get outside and are a little but away from the house.
"Daddy why did you lie to Mommy?" He asks.
"I didn't lie." I say.
"You told Mommy we were going fishing, we aren't going finishing we're going to get her things for tomorrow. You said I was gonna make her something."
Tomorrow is Mother's Day and I want to do something nice for Annie.
"We are going to make something."
"But Daddy, you and Mommy say lying is wrong."
I smile.
"It's not a lie it's a surprise."
"What's that?" He asks.
I pick him up.
"A surprise Nick is when you plan something nice out and when they find out they will be really happy." I say and kiss his cheek.
"So us lying is going to make Mommy happy."
"We aren't lying but we are going to make Mommy happy."
"Okay." He says.
Even though we aren't going finishing we are going to the boat. The boat has a small living quarters so we can do what I plan. I am planning to make cement handprints. They should be dry by tomorrow. I know Annie will love this, she loves cutest home made things. Like the handprint apron she has. I can tell she is going to be that Mom who pulls out embarrassing things when friends come over.
"Okay here we are." I say and set him down when we are on the deck.
"Okay, what are we going to make Mommy?"
"We are going to give her a cement circle of your hands so she can always remember how little you were." I say and poke his stomach which causes him to giggle.
"Like her painty apron?" He asks.
"Yes like her painty apron."
"Will I paint this too?"
"You can, but do remember those shells you picked out that you thought Mommy would like?"
He nods.
"Well I was thinking you could decorate those in this."
"That sounds like a good idea." He smiles.
"Good." I say.
"While I set this up do you wanna make Mommy a card?" I ask.
"Yes." He says and smiles.
"Okay." I say. I give him colorful paper and crayons. He sits at the table and starts to color or draw. Something, it doesn't matter what. It will make Annie happy.
I pour the kit into the circle holder and let it get more constant and less watery.
"Daddy?"
I get up and walk over to where he is sitting.
"Yes?" I ask.
"Do you think Mommy will like this?" I ask. It is a colorful heart with Mommy written on it.
"Yes she will love it." I say and kiss his forehead. "Put it inside so it won't blow away and then come back out here."
"Okay." He says
"Don't run." I say because I don't want him to fall down.
He comes back out a minute later and smiles.
"Now what?" He smiles.
"You're gonna put your hands in this-
"It looks yucky." He says and wrinkles his nose.
"It will only be for a few minutes." I smile.
"Oh-kay."
"They you're gonna wash your hands and you can decorate it with those sea shells."
"But Daddy this looks all wet and yucky and not solid."
"It has to set up, we will come back tomorrow to get it for Mommy." I smile.
"Okay." He smiles.
"Sit next to me." I say and he does.
"Now press your hands into it." I say.
He does.
"It feels slimy." He giggles.
I push his hands in deeper so it will leave a deeper and more noticeable imprint.
"Okay you can take them out. Now sign your name." I say and he does.
"My hands are all yucky." He says and holds them up.
"Don't touch anything." I say. "Follow me." I say and open the doors so he can wash his hand to get rid of the cement.
"Okay let's go back outside so you can decorate it with those shells." I say.
He does after he is finished I put the year.
We both wash our hands.
"Okay time to go home."
"What?"
"It has to dry, it's still yucky." I say and poke his stomach causing him to giggle again.
"Okay." He smiles.
"Let's go, Mommy is probably getting worried." I say and kiss his forehead.
"Okay." He says. I pick him up and we start to walk back home. I set him down as soon as we walking inside and he starts to run towards Annie.
"Mommy!" He says with glee.
"Hi sweetie did you have fun with Daddy?" She asks and strokes his hair.
He nods.
"Yes." He smiles.
"Did you catch anything?" She asks.
"No." He says and looks at me.
"Don't worry, I'm sure you will get better. Did you have fun?" Annie asks again.
He nods.
"Then that is all that matters." She says and kisses his forehead.
He wraps his arms around her. "I love you Mommy."
"I love you too sweetie." She says.
Annie is still asleep, I get up carefully to make sure not to wake her.
I get her present and then head back home. I go upstairs to see if she or Nick are awake.
I open our bedroom door a creak and see her still sleeping soundly. I know she will be awake soon because she sets an alarm for ten so she doesn't 'laze around'.
I got to Nick's room and expect him to be awake but I am greeted with a 'Daddy?'
"Yes it's me." I say and walk over towards him.
"Are we gonna give Mommy the stuff soon?" He smiles.
"She is still sleeping but we can make her breakfast and get everything ready."
"Okay." He smiles.
I grab his hand and we head downstairs.
"That's what you made Mommy." I say and point towards the kitchen table.
"It looks nice." He smiles.
I hear the shower turn on and know Annie is awake. So I start to make her favorite breakfast.
"Okay, now when Mommy walks downstairs make sure to say 'Happy Mother's Day.' Okay?" I ask.
"Oh-kay." He smiles.
"Okay." I say.
A few minutes later I hear him shout it.
I turn and see Annie smiling and she picks him up.
"Oh thank you so much sweetie." She says and kisses his forehead.
"Mommy wait there's more." He says excited.
"I know you and Daddy made me breakfast." She says and smiles at me.
"No Mommy I made something for you." He smiles.
"You did?" She says in awe.
He nods.
"It's on the table." He says and Annie heads there and then smiles.
"Oh sweetie it's wonderful." She says and kisses him.
"I made the card by myself." He smiles.
"It's so nice I love it so much. All of it." She says and kisses him.
"Really?" He smiles.
"Really." She kisses his forehead and sits down and places him on her lap.
"We are gonna hang your handprints somewhere so I can see them everyday."
"Okay." He smiles.
"Okay." She says and squeezes him causing him to giggle.
I give her breakfast and Nick gets off her to sit at his own place so he can eat too.
"So Mommy?" He asks.
"Yes?" She smiles.
"Is this a nice Mother's Day?" He asks. You can see the hope in his eyes.
"Of course it is, it's the best day out of the year." She says and kisses him.
"I love you Mommy." He says and smiles.
"I love you too sweetie and Daddy too." She says and smiles at me.
"Daddy too." He says and smiles.
I smile too and am glad to see that smile on Annie's face.
