No-ones POV:
It was Brittany's Birthday. Apart from there was no Brittany to share the special day with. Anna just lay on her side of the bed, she left Britt's side untouched after the accident. She just stared at the ceiling, tears rolling down the side of her face and onto the pillow. Anna never realized how much she made her smile. The blonde could just walk into the room and Anna's Day would change from average to phenomenal in less than a second. All the nights the two would spend together, curled up in each others arms watching countless musicals until they fell asleep. Anna wished with all her heart that the fire never happened, She wanted her wife back. She wore the ring on her finger still, she was still married to Brittany and would never love anyone else.
Anna turned to Brittany's side of the bed, which remained cold and untouched, The warmth that was Brittany is gone, but her smell remained which just made her cry even more. Britt always smelt like strawberries and apples. Anna knew that she should get up but the bed was warm. After around 10 minutes of staring into space, she swung her legs over the edge of the bed and walked over to the cabinet. The chest of drawers was home to pictures of the two together, but each had a picture of them on there own. Anna's favorite was a picture of Anna covered in mud from when Brittany pushed her in the mud pool. The frozen memory showed Anna sticking her bottom lip out with her arms crossed and Brittany kissing her cheek, smiling. At the edge of the drawers there was a head shot of Her wife, she was facing sidewards. in front of the picture was Brittany's wedding ring. In a way, Anna was happy that she had to take the wedding ring off to work because this way Anna had the bond that held them together. "I love you." she whispered to the ceiling.

Brittany's POV:
It broke me every day, to see my wife hurting this badly all because of a stupid flame. It's my birthday and Anna was alone, crying. After I died my soul moved on to heaven so I could see all that my wonderful wife did. I was excited that I could see whatever she did, wherever she was, but it broke my heart when I saw her tears. Today was the worst because I would have been turning 30, I saw Anna just lay there helplessly in silence, not even trying to stop the tears, my heart ached when she turned to my side, she did this everyday, like she was hoping that one day she would turn around and I would be there smiling. But no. I saw her sigh and get up, she walked over the drawers which held our memories. She was holding back sobs when she got to her favorite picture of us. She looked back yet again, expecting to see me with my arms open, the flicker of hope in her eyes disappearing when she just saw emptiness. she saw my head shot and my wedding ring and a smile came to her face. the wedding ring had the words "Anna's little weirdo" engraved on the outside, hers had "snow blizzard". She looked to her side, expecting me to come and hug her and tell her it was all a dream. People told her that I was still there, but Anna never believed them, she thought that was impossible. If only she knew.
I just want to run up to her and tell her that it's okay, I want to stroke her hair as she fell asleep on my lap, I want to fill the empty space next to her, I want to hold her in my arms when she doubted herself. I want to make the smell of strawberries fresh. I want her to know that Forever and always was not an empty promise.
I was brought out of my thoughts as I saw her whisper my favorite words she could say.
"I love you."
all of a sudden I was behind her saying;
"I love you too."
she turned around and ran at me almost knocking me over.
"I missed you."
