            Steven isn’t quite sure how Wallace talked him into this. The waves are lapping gently outside stained glass windows, and candlelight spills over his menu – gilt edged, he notices uncomfortably, and written in French. He squints at the incomprehensible loops and neatly dotted eyes, and finally points at something, just for an appetizer, and hopes he hasn’t ordered snails by accident. Wallace smiles at him from across the table, and he feels his cheeks grow warm, before he sees a waiter walking by with champagne and his salvation.

            He almost wrestles the man to the ground to get the children’s menu he’s holding, which has recognizable pictures and – Thank Rayquaza – is written in English.

             Wallace briefly wonders why he requested high-class for their anniversary, as he watches Steven wind long strings of spaghetti around his fork and chase meatballs across his plate. It’s cute, it’s adorably cute, and he almost forgets to eat the fish steaming quietly in front of him.

            This is the reason they’re here.

            Steven grins at him, and spears another meatball, and Wallace shakes his head, and after dessert is concluded, they kiss each other goodnight.
