Formula 1 - One Shots [First Book]

Anniversary - {Daniel Ricciardo}

A/N: This is for the lovely tami_udvardy, hope you like it! Really loved the plot of this one :)

           

"Y/N? Sorry to disturb you, but this came in for you". You looked up from your laptop as one of your colleagues came into your office. She held a big bouquet of roses and your cheeks immediately heated up as you knew who the person was who send these beautiful flowers.

"Thanks, I'll put them in some water". You smiled and stood up to get the bouquet from her. Today was your five year anniversary with Daniel and you didn't think he wanted to do anything special actually.

This morning he kissed you goodbye when you went off to work. You were wondering if he found the new aftershave you bought for him and had put on the sink in the bathroom, as he went to shower when you were out of the house.

You quickly put the red roses in a vase with water and put them on your desk. You snapped a picture and opened Whatsapp to send it to him.

You: Got some roses, wondering from who they are ☺️

Dan My Man: Got a new aftershave all in sudden as well, maybe Santa's been drinking and thinks it's Christmas?

Dan My Man: Haha, just kidding. Love the new aftershave, thanks babe

You: Love the roses, and you too!

You smiled as he sent a big heart and a kiss face. You put your phone in your bag again and went further with typing the document you were working on earlier.

It didn't take long before someone stopped by again. "Sorry...". Your colleague said with a small smile, placing the box on your desk and quickly walking away again. You shook your head with a blush, unknotting the pink ribbon around the box.

You let out a chuckle as it were little pralines of Belgian chocolate, your favourite. They looked so pretty in the box you didn't dare to eat one yet. You tied the ribbon around it and placed it in your bag as well so you wouldn't forget it.

You were glad you got a part of your work done for tomorrow and you worked through your lunch break so you could be home a little earlier.

"Y/N, I assume your boyfriend is sending this?". She was back again, this time with another bouquet of flowers. "My god, Daniel". You muttered, taking the flowers from her. "He's husband material". She whisper yelled and you laughed.

You dialled Daniel's number. "Dan, stop sending me presents. My co-worker is getting leg cramps from walking to my desk that many times". Your chest fluttered when you heard his loud laughter rumbling through the phone.

"Aren't you done working?". He asked innocently and you heard some background noise and his heavy breathing. "Are you on a run?".

"I am... wait did you think I was wan...". You could practically hear the smirk on his face.

"No! Okay, maybe. Yes, I'm almost done working by the way". You said with hot cheeks again and you felt the sides of your face with the back of your hand.

"Alright, babe. See you soon". Daniel said and you said your goodbye as well, ending the call. You looked at your laptop and back at the flowers. You smacked the laptop close and managed to get the flowers with you to the door, your bag on your shoulder.

You locked the door of your office and wandered out of the building, carefully putting the flowers on the floor in front of the passenger's seat.

When you came home Daniel wasn't there yet, but it gave you some time to get a nice spot for the flowers. The box of chocolates seemed to challenge you and you gave in, eating one of them. Or two.

You walked upstairs and into the bedroom you shared to put on some comfy clothes instead of these heels and tight pencil skirt for work. You put your heels back in the closet and then saw a black box laying on the bed.

Rose petals were spread around it and you gasped. You nibbled on your lip and you actually were afraid to see what's in it. The box itself looked expensive as hell.

Your fingers slide over the box. The letters on it spelled Versace and you almost knew what was in it. You opened the box and sighed as your eyes met the most gorgeous dress you've ever seen, the same model the Victoria's Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel wore as well and the one you had spotted in Rome two weeks ago.

"Oh wow, look at that!". You squealed and crossed the street to have a closer look on the beautiful dress that hung on one of those mannequins.

You and Daniel had a four day trip to Rome to do some sightseeing and you were loving it absolutely. Today you went shopping in the centre of Rome and all of the designer clothing stores were there as well.

"That's pretty". Daniel nodded and smiled at you, imagining how beautiful you'd look in it. He wrapped his arms around your shoulders from behind and leaned his head on top of yours.

You eyed the price ticket and you cringed at the number. "But there are more dresses and I have a few as well". You said, looking up at him. "Are you sure? We can go in and fit it". Daniel suggested, knowing you were in love with it.

You shook your head and pulled his arm, not wanting him to by you such an expensive dress.

"It's the right one, right?". Daniel leaned against the door and you looked up at him. You nodded with a small smile. "You need to stop giving me such expensive things, Dan". Your fingers moved over the soft fabric of the dress.

"I just love to spoil my girl". He shrugged and walked towards you. He was still a bit sweaty as he just came back from his run, but you didn't mind.

"And I just gave you some aftershave, you make me feel so guilty". You muttered against his chest as he took you in his arms.

Daniel laughed. "It's okay, your love and happiness is the best present for me". He briefly kissed you and caressed your cheek. "You can wear it tonight, I'm taking you out for dinner". He smirked and squeezed your hand, walking off to take a shower.

You smiled and got the dress out of the box to put it on a clothing hanger. Now, you looked forward to wearing it.
