july 18, 2031:

it's incredible how fast things can change. one moment you're the happiest woman alive, you have a great group of best friends and an AMAZING husband, the next all is gone.

today marks the 1 year anniversary since Finn's death. how it happened? are you sure you want to hear the gruesome details? i won't do that to you so to sum it up, he was found in a ditch, in his flipped car. he had swerved off the road. didn't even make it to the hospital.

i was absolutely broken.

still am, but it hurts less. i haven't slept on his side of the bed since. don't plan on it.

how i got through it? friends. we drifted but Finns passing brought us together once more. sometimes i can't help but wonder, why him?

almost 8 billion people yet it was finn.

sophia, chosen and wyatt were the most helpful. when the rest had to go back, they stayed. they made sure i got up, ate, showered and didn't go absolutely mental.

they made sure i was okay.

in the back of finns car was a beautiful bouquet of roses, my favourite. attached was a note for me. it was our anniversary and to make sure i was happy and surprised, he went to go pick up flowers. but he didn't return.

right before the bouquet of previously smooth roses withered, i picked a single rose. within that same week i had preserved the rose in some mix i found the recipe for on fucking wikihow. now the rose stands hardened on my dresser with a small note attached to its stem...

dear y/n,

happy anniversary, loser. Every love story is special, unique and beautiful—but ours is my favorite. I didn't think it was possible to love you any more than I did the day I married you, but somehow my love only grows. To the most beautiful person who has given me the most beautiful life, a very happy anniversary. When a love is true, there is no ending. I hope we get to celebrate for many years to come.

yours truly,
-finn

and with that i'm left. your last message burned into my soul. words i'll never forget. but through it all, i've learned to remain grateful. grateful of the losers, the people who got me through this mess. without them i wouldn't know how to carry on.

i'm also happy. i would have never thought i'd be able to say that but i know that as each minute i'm withheld from you passes, my love will continue to burn like the moment i first fell for you. because one day, i'll see you again. i'll feel the warmth of your chest pressed against my cheek as your slender arms wrap around my body.

i'll be waiting for you because when love is true, there is no ending. as long as i'm breathing, you will always be in my heart, wolfhard.

yours truly,
-y/n
