There was absolutely no question that Padmé loved her husband deeply. It had been a year since they had married - a vow renewal for Anakin, a first for Padmé. The past year had its ups and downs, but it left her looking toward the future at the end of the day. They would have a future as a family, soon enough. Even if she had and somewhat still struggled with making herself slow down and take things as they came, not perpetually working, she was doing well overall in no small part due to Anakin. Even amidst teasing for her fruit cravings, he was always there to love her. He was her hero.
And their anniversary would serve as a good day to appreciate and spend time together; it wasn't as if they needed a special day or something designated to be a "date" just to act like they were on one. They tended to be downright romantic and flirtatious with one another without prompting or setting. All the same, a day together was never a bad thing.
Padmé had arranged to rent a Mercedes-Benz E-Class car; she had endeavored to learn and get legally licensed to drive a vehicle for the sake of driving a company car when work required it. The car was comfortable and on the internet it had suggested doing something special and above by renting a nice car. There was a radio and CD player along with a sunroof and so many airbags that Padmé wasn't quite sure the purpose of all of them. Regardless, it seemed like it could make for a comfortable setting for getting to and from places with a little more privacy than the trolley would allow, and then for watching a drive-in movie.
But the movie was a little later in the afternoon, once it was darker. There were other things to do first, including give Anakin his gifts. "Ani, why don't you open your gifts before we go? That way, it's one less thing to have on-hand."
Anakin's gifts were all packaged in one box, neatly wrapped in striped paper, with a card taped to the top. She had initially planned to ignore the tradition she had found about first anniversary gifts being paper, then Padmé had found the materials to for a little booklet to put things she loved about him. It was small, and would fit into a palm, but each page was one she had written in its entirety. She could've gone on, but the little kit had only come with 40 pages.
