Five Years Later...

Today was a special day, because today was our five year anniversary. Blair didn't know about it, but I had a little surprise party planned for later...

   My eyes fluttered open, the morning sun shining through the window lit up our bedroom.

   I looked over, seeing Blair still sleeping peacefully next to me.

   I smiled lightly to myself before leaning over to whisper in her ear. "Blair, its time to wake up."

   She started to stir before turning to face me, a smile lighting up her face. "Good morning."

   I planted a soft kiss on her lips. "Guess what today is?"

   She tapped her chin. "Hmm... I don't know, what's today?"

   I hit her with my pillow, faking a shocked look. "I can't believe you forgot!"

   She laughed, pulling me down for another kiss. "I'm only kidding, of course I know what today is. It's the five year anniversary of when I fell in love with the most beautiful woman on the planet."

   I smiled before planting a few more soft kisses on her lips. "And? What else?"

   She smiled back. "And, it's the three year anniversary of when I married that beautiful woman."

   My smile grew a little wider. "I love you."

   "I love you to." She replied.

   After getting ready for the day, I sat down at the kitchen table, Blair joining me soon after with a small, wrapped box in her hand.

   She set it down in front of me before sitting across from me.

   I picked up the box. "What's this?"

   "Open it."

   I smiled down at the box as I pulled the bow and wrapping paper off. I lifted the lid on the box, revealing a beautiful gold necklace, an intricate, heart-shaped pendant hanging from the chain. "For my true love" was etched onto the back of the pendant.

   "I hope you like it." She said.

   "It's beautiful." I replied, running my thumb over the pendant.

   She stood up and walked behind me. "Here, let me help you put it on."

   I handed her the necklace before lifting my hair while she wrapped the necklace around my neck and latched it.

   "So? How does it look?" I asked.

   "It looks a lot better on you then it did sitting in that box."

   I smiled, standing up to kiss her. "Thank you for the beautiful gift, and don't worry, I have something special planned for you today."

   She smiled. "I can't wait to see what it is."
