Well, it hadn't taken very much planning, and in hindsight Wesley thought he could've come up with something a bit nicer, but as far as first anniversaries go, he didn't think dinner at a fancy restaurant was too shabby.

"You look lovely," he offered to Katniss for possiby the fifth or sixth time as the waiter ushered them to their table. "Oh," he added, handing over a bouquet of green roses, "and these are for you."

Sure, he'd done it before, but she hadn't objected last time, so.

[[for that one girl, and nfb for distance. good god, how has it been a year?]]

Katniss hadn't been able to dress herself...well, ever. But after spending a year under Cinna's guidance, she had a vague idea of what looked good on her. And really, Wesley was easy to impress -- leave her hair down, wear something remotely feminine (but with sleeves, because she was still too practical to not dress for winter), and smile, and she would do well.

She wasn't really thinking about that, though. She was sort of trying to let herself just enjoy the fact that her boyfriend had gotten her flowers, in her favorite color, again, and that they'd been together for a year, and neither of them was dead or had ruined it.

Katniss still wasn't used to this. Still. "You," she decided, taking the roses, "have a really good memory." Her entirely genuine smile and light blush spoke to the fact that she was pleased, though.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Wesley informed her, a smile twitching at the corners of his mouth. "I could hardly forget your favorite color."

"But they're the same," she argued softly. "Good memory. I get to keep saying that. And also, seriously, you outdid yourself. You know I'll eat anything," she added, gesturing around the restaurant.

"Excellent," he declared. "Then squirrel liver it is."

Wait, Katniss would probably eat that.

"Or, ah, anything that's actually on the menu," he suggested. Which squirrel liver was not. Sorry, Katniss.

"Squirrel livers are too small to be useful," Katniss replied distractedly as she started poring over the menu.

That's your girlfriend of a year there, Wesley. The squirrel connoisseur.

Wesley took that in. "Thank you," he said dryly. "Really."

He perused the menu, humming slightly. "See anything of interest?

"Everything," she replied, looking up with a slight smile. "One of these days, I might just grow out of being that hungry girl from Twelve. Or else my metabolism will catch up with me." She flipped a page. "Today is not that day."

"I hardly see why it should be," Wesley said, leaning over for a slightly awkward kiss. "I should hope the respite from school food would be more than enough of a deterrent from any major lifestyle changes at the moment."

"Nope, I'm pretty happy with the current spectrum of my life," she assured him, leaning into the kiss to keep it a little less awkward. There would be time enough for less-awkward kisses later, she imagined. (At least, she was ensuring so. Too bad if you had planned to sleep in your own room tonight, Wesley!) "I've never had an anniversary to celebrate before."

"Nor I," he admitted, leaning back in his chair with an almost sheepish smile on his face. "It's rather odd, isn't it?"

"In a nice way," she said, "but it's odd in that I don't have anything else like this to celebrate, yes." She flashed him a smile, and added, "Sorry, I'll be more cheery-sounding, even if I still meant it well. You look nice, by the way."

"There's always birthdays," he reminded her, smiling at the compliment. "Holidays, that sort of thing. Valentine's Day..."

See, Katniss? There was just a whole list of fun events to not be depressed about!
