Soarin looked at big mac who was reading a book on the couch "Big mac?" he asked "eeyup?" he retorted."Even if we can't get married i want you to know that our love is not inferior" Big mac looked down from his book "I know that honey. I love you, no law is gonna change that " they sat there in silence, but not a bad silence,it was more like a contempt silence, Soarin knew that there love wouldn't be effected by this,regardless of the outcome.Not that he didn't want to get married.that would be great,but he would would           be fine with not getting married as long as he could stay with the love of his life, but if it was important to big mac, it was important to him.

Soarin was always happiest when big mac was happy and that's all he wanted to do was make him happy.Coming out of the closet together only strengthened their bond,now all they were worried about was having equal rights. They deserved just as much as straight couples and they won't stop until they have those rights. Big mac had always been stubborn and didn't give up on things,this was no different. So Soarin knew they were in for an adventure and getting more supporters probably only motivated him more. Soarin was becoming increasingly optimistic about this.He thought he was alone with big mac in this fight, but Lyra and Bonbon and all the LGBT suopporters that joined in the protest  showed him the he had a lot of people were willing to fight for the cause of marriage equality and they could use as much support as they could get. population issue be damned they will get married by the end of this.

The next day Big mac surprised Soarin with dinner reservations when he came home from practice. it had been a while since the last date they went on and Big mac liked to keep things interesting. Big mac put on his nice cowboy hat and leather vest ad Soarin put on his wonderbolts jacket and they trotted to the train station and gave the conductor their tickets and got on the train.they sat there talking about work and how their day was as the train sped towards canterlot. Big mac brought up a family incident that happened at work. "So ah was taking a break and i saw applebloom and her friends trying to pull the apple cart and when i asked them about what they were doin and they said something about "Cutie mark crusaders apple farmers" i figured they weren't hurtin nothin so i left them to  play" he said with a chuckle "I swear soarin they aren't gonna get there cutie marks that way" Soarin smirked "If they do get 'em that way it wouldn't make for an interesting story" Big mac shrugged "What can you do?"

The two kept talking for a little bit but soarin was tired from practice and and decided to take a nap, big mac just sat there with soarin resting his head on his lap and sleeping like a rock and looked out the window, when they were a few miles from canterlot Big mac decided to wake Soarin up. Soarin was a heavy sleepe so he knew he was going to need a few minutes to wake him up.

After a few minutes and a cup of coffee soarin was awake and aware by the time they made it to canterlot. They both trotted out and took a taxi to canterlot's fanciest restaurant.Big mac had really out done himself and this time he sure looked proud of himself. they ate what was probably the best meal they've both had in weeks and were about to go home when soarin realized he had the day off tomorrow and when it comes to big mac's job he got paid as long as he got the job done. his wok was rather laissez faire due to the fact he was such a good worker they gave him more freedoms. so they decided to stay at a hotel tonight.

They decided however since it was 11 pm and the night was young that they would go to a bar for a few drinks,they went to a gay bar called "Thunderlane's Place" they walked in the doors and sat at the bar. Big mac ordered some cider and Soarin got some fruity drink he could barely pronounce the name of.

About half an hour had passed and they were both very tipsy and felt like dancing! they went out on the crowded dance floo and started dancing together.It wasn't the best dancing but they were having fun and that's all that mattered. Big mac and Soarin always had the most fun together. Ever since they started dating Soarin has helped Big mac come out of his shell. When he's around soarin he's a lot less introverted, they really brought the best out of each other.

They had eventually gotten extremely drunk and were stumbling down the street towards a nice hotel.they stumbled into there room giggling all the while. Big mac went over to the living room and passed out while holding his partner on the couch
