Jane walked into the kitchen to find a sleeping Anne
Anne's head is resting on her open sketchbook and her hair is still in her space buns. With most of it falling over her face.
Jane giggles to herself and walks over to wake Anne upJane: Anne, Anne babe. You ok?
Anne: Wha- where am I?
Jane: You are in the kitchen. Using your sketchbook as a pillow by the looks of it
Anne: Oh Yeah. I was finishing the drawing. And I guess I fell asleepJane giggles
Jane: You are crazy you know that Anne.
Anne: I know.Anne suddenly realises what day it is. Her one year anniversary. She jumps up and without her crutches. Gets upstairs as fast as she can whilst clutching her sketchbook to her chest.
She gently tears out the finished drawing and places it in the frame that Jane had got for her.
She grabbed the bag from under her bed that she had been saving for Catherine. A beautiful blue bag. Almost tie dye looking.
She gently wrapped the frame in tissue paper and placed it in the bag. Right next to the card that she had picked out for Catherine.
Finally. She puts the last surprise gift at the bottom of the bag. To make sure Catherine opens it last.
Then races downstairs just in time
Catherine walks in a few minutes later, a huge smile on her faceAnne: Happy anniversary!
Catherine: Happy anniversary babe!Anne goes over to Catherine and pulls her into a huge hug.
The other queens slowly file into the kitchen and Cathrine and Anne share their gifts. Catherine demands she goes first. Which is good for Anne as she wanted to give her presents last
Catherine has got Anne the most beautiful bracelet with two letters on. A c. And a b.
As Anne pulls out the second present. She carefully unwraps a small wooden box. As she opens it. She gasps as a stack of photos of Catherine and Anne stare back at her. She picks one up and on the back of each photo. Is the description of the photo and the memory it holds.
Anne can feel her eyes fill with tears. And Catherine gives her a huge hug.Catherine: Do you like it?
Anne: Like it? I love it! Thank you so much!Anne hands over her bag of presents to Catherine and waits anxiously as Catherine pulls out the card and reads it.
Then. Anne takes a deep breath as Catherine pulls out the tissue paper wrapped frame
Catherine gently unwraps it and the gasp that she does tells Anne that she has reached the drawingCathrine: Anne- I- Oh my god Anne it's beautiful!
Anne: It's our favourite photo. Of us in the rain
Cathrine: It's incredible! Oh my god thank you so much!!Catherine realises there is more in the bag. And pulls out a small box
Catherine: I see we both went for a box
Aragon: Open It!
Kitty: What's in it?Catherine opens the box and pulls out two small bits of card. Anne can see her hands shaking as she reads what's on them.
Jane: Well, What does it say?
Anna: Yeah, What does it say?Catherine takes a shaky breath and Anne can feel herself smiling at Catherine's reaction
Catherine: It's two tickets. For. Australia .
Jane: Australia? Did I hear that right?
Catherine: Yeah. You heard it rightShe looks up at Anne with tears in her eyes
Catherine: Are we really going to Australia?
Anne: You bet we are!
Aragon: Oooooh
Catherine: Anne! Oh my god Anne you are the best girlfriend I could ever ask for!Catherine jumps up and launches herself at Anne who laughs and hugs her back.
Catherine: Well, I guess the story doesn't end here
Anne: No. I don't think it does
Catherine: Cause we are going to Australia !! I still can't believe it!
Anne: We are. So you better start believingThey smile at each other.
And Anne gives Catherine a look. That just goes to say.
