-Shay's POV-

It's been a month and half since I gave birth to our son, Nathan Paul Mitchell Benson a.k.a Baby Benz. All of our friends were so fond of him right from the first time they saw him. It was so funny because Ashley wouldn't allow anyone to touch him unless they use some hand sanitizer first. We're still getting the hang of being parents but things seem to come out naturally, motherly instincts they say.

Our first wedding Anniversary was due in a week but Ashley was out of town for a commitment. She was very hesitant to leave me and baby benz behind but I told her we're going to be fine. She calls us almost every hour to check up on us…just like now.

"Hey babe! How's Toronto?" I ask her.

"Oh hey babe I'm doing great" she says sarcastically as a joke. "Just kidding babe. Everything's doing fine in your hometown. It could have been better with you and baby benz in here. How are you two?" There was loneliness in her voice

"He's sleeping for now but I know he'd be waking up soon. I miss my wifey so much. Oh the things I would do to her" I was trying to cheer Ashley up.

"No you don't start me with that one Shannon. It's hard to resist" She says the last part to almost a whisper. I could imagine the growing smile on Ashley's face. I would've kept going if only baby benz had not woken up.

"Uhmm babe I think someone wants my attention more. I'll talk to you later okay? I love you" It was hard to end up the call

"Yeah I could hear him crying. Go get the little monster to stop crying. We'll finish what you were starting alright? I love you more" I shook my head and giggled at our craziness then hanged up.

Taking care of our baby wasn't that much of a burden since Ashley's mom, my mom and the girls have always been lending a helping hand. My dilemma now was how to make our first wedding anniversary special for Ashley. She deserves the best on that day based on how much she took care of me on my pregnancy and how loving she was to me.

"Have you made up your mind already?" Mommy Benson asked me as she and my mom prepare a handful batter of cookies for our girls' night later.

"I'm getting rusty at surprises. I don't really know what to do. She's on the other end of the country and I'm here. She won't be home until 3 days after our anniversary. She'd be busy working so flying in wouldn't be such a good idea" I was really stressed out on what to do.

"You can surprise her when she gets back" Shaylene joined the conversation. She just came from upstairs with baby benz cradled on her arms.

"I'm thinking that too but I still don't know what to do when she arrives. Should I just fill our rooms with candles and petals and wear some kinky sheer lingerie?" I was really that desperate

"Shannon Ashley!" My mom called my attention "I think we didn't have to know the lingerie part" I blushed realizing that indeed they didn't have to know about it

"Aha! Just wait right there" Mommy B said and pulled out her phone. She called someone asking for Ashley's schedule in Toronto and thanked the other line as the call ended. "I have the perfect idea" she said and smiled victoriously before telling us the details.

-Ashley's POV-

I've been thinking of what to do for Shay on our first wedding anniversary, which was today. It's already a bummer that I'm here in Toronto while she's there at home in L.A with our child. Maybe I should bring her favorite Canadian treats when I get home along with dozens of flowers. I'll be home in 3 days so I have to have everything planned by then. Before I left I already left instructions to my mom and mommy mitch to prepare something for Shay today. A wonderful dinner then we could do face time.

"Ashley you're up in 5" Someone from the crew told me. I'm going to be the guest for a live talk show. I set aside all the worry and sadness in me and channeled all the positive vibes in me before walking in the stage with a big smile.

"Hello everyone!" I greeted the audience when I walked in.

"Hello Ashley. Welcome to the show" the host greeted me with a warm smile

"It's so nice to be here today" I said in reply but at the back of my mind I was thinking that it was nicer if I was home with my family. The interview went on with us discussing about the clothing line I was endorsing and the possibility of a Pretty Little Liar Reunited movie. I answered all questions enthusiastically as I could.

"To end our good time with you today, we'll be playing some sort of game. All you have to do is tell us something about the photos we would be showing to you on screen. You ready?" I was quite in shock with the game because that wasn't on the script but nothing could go wrong I guess.

"Let's get it on!" I said raising my fist to the air. The first photo they showed me was a photo of me when I was 17, that was so long ago. The game went on with photos of me on different movies I've been on, photos of us PLL girls and photos of me and Shay.

"Now share to us about this very cute photo we found online" On screen was the photo Shay and I took just an hour after she gave birth to baby benz.

"That is our very first family photo. I took that one just an hour more or less after Shay had given birth that's why she looks so tired in there and my eyes are still bit watery" I smiled and laughed while sharing.

"Aww. That is one great photo Ash. So we have one last thing to show you, take a look" I waited patiently for the photo to change but instead of a photo it was a recorded video of Shay with baby benz.

"Surprise! Hey Benzo since you're in there and I'm here and we can't be together on our anniversary I wanted to do this and tell you how much I enjoyed our first year together. I can't believe it's been that long already. You are the best thing that ever happened to me, you and baby benz. I love you soooo much babe. Happy Anniversary. See you soon. Muah! Muah! Muah!" Shay ended her video with her kissy face and flying kisses. I was in tears but smiling while watching it.

"Thank you so much for that" I said to the host. It was so nice of them to insert that. "And Shannon happy anniversary to you too. I love you soooo much!" I blew a kiss on the camera knowing that Shay was watching my interview.

"That was so sweet but there's more to it Ashley, ladies and gentlemen help me welcome on stage the ever beautiful Ms. Shay Mitchell-Benson" My jaw dropped when the host announced Shay's name. She walked in wearing a sexy black dress. She was totally slaying it.

"Hey baby" she said as she hugged me on my seat. I was in total shock of her sudden appearance.

"Oh my God. I can't believe you're here! When did you arrive? It's such a surprise" I was really overjoyed by her effort.

"Last night. I'm glad you were surprised. Are you happy to see me?" she asked me with a big smile

"Of course yes!" I hugged her again and held her hand tight. If it were just us in the room I would have pinned her on the wall by now.

"Hello Shay. Welcome and thank you for joining us today" The host greeted Shay

"No. Let me thank you for giving me the chance to do what I have to do" She told the host and the host gave her a nod. She then stood up pulling me to stand up with her. She turned us sideways so we were now facing each other. She gave me her toothless smirk before talking.

"I honestly didn't know what to do for our day. This day is already special as it already is and I don't know how to make it even more special for you. You're everything that I prayed for Ash. You're my best friend for a long long time now and just last year, on this very day, I promised to you in front of the people that meant most to us that I would love you for the rest of my life. Here I am again Ashley Victoria Benson professing my undying love to you. Those were just the first 365 days with you and each day always had its own story. Things might not have been that smooth but there was nothing that our love didn't conquer. Ashley I have nothing more to say but…I love you. I love so much" I was crying helplessly with Shay's speech. I couldn't almost breathe in happiness and tears. I am one lucky girl. I pulled Shay closer to me and attached our lips for a passionate kiss. Everyone on the audience were cheering and clapping. It could be cheesy and cliché for some but to me, it was perfect.

Shay and I went back to the hotel where our families were waiting for us.

"So as I see it you've gathered up everyone…eh" I still make fun of Shay's Canadian accent. She's losing it a bit but it still comes out from time to time. I secretly love hearing her with it, it just sounds so sexy but I don't tell her though.

"Not everyone really. Lucy, Troian, Janel and the boys wanted to come for support but they had something set already. They're sending their wishes and greetings to you and they'll be with us for the party when we get back in LA" We share a brief kiss before she opened the door.

Our families greeted us and hugged us once we got in. I immediately took baby benz and carried him in my arms. I have missed my son for the period that I was here. Just as I was going to invite them for our dinner celebration they bid their goodbyes. Sean took baby benz from me and Shay and I were left alone in the room.

"Uhh I thought we were celebrating?" I asked her confused

"We are." She intertwined her hands in mine and guided us back to the elevator. She whispered something to the elevator operator and the next thing I knew we were at the roof deck of the hotel.

When we stepped out of the elevator I was surprised by the beautiful setup of dinner for two at the center of the deck. There were rose petals, candles and lamps everywhere and the air was filled with romantic music played by a violinist on the corner. It was very romantic.

"This is…wow" There was no word to describe how beautiful it was

"Happy Anniversary Ash" Shay greeted me once again.

"Happy Anniversary Shannon" Our lips met, fitting together like a perfect jigsaw puzzle piece.

There goes the update :D

Too bad Shay didn't win in the TCA but it's for sure she's proud of her lovey and Ashley would love to share it with her baby love.

So I've seen some tweets about Shay and Ryan breaking up, is it true? If it is then it's too bad. I like buttahbenzo together but Shay and Ryan was a cute couple. Shay must be sad. Tsk².
