Brooklyn, N.Y.
I waited to see if you got to the train on time today
9:45am every weekday, same spot with a black gym bag, sweats, and cross trainers
I am on my way to work with my leather bag and you on the way to your work out
We never actually speak outside of saying "good morning" or mutual quips of frustration over the late train
But this one day, at 9:45am I see you running for dear life before the train pulls off
I take a stand that day and hold the door for you which I normally don't do
We had previously ever so briefly spoke about hating people that do that
But today something came over me and that was the begin of something on seen in the movies

Sunday June 30, 2013 New York, N.Y.
As I yawn and wipe the crust from my eyesi look at the clock
9:45am
Today is Gay Pride and having decided to avoid the brunch chaos inherent to the day we decide to stay in until noon
The day before you were at the gym without me which was odd since you talked me into getting a membership and Saturday was the only day we went together because it was my only day off
I went to the market and got bacon (for me), eggs, cheese, turkey sausage (for you), croissants, orange juicen and cheap champagne (sorry) and decide to suprisr you with brunch
Well to my shock, once I get my head in order I realize you are not next to me and my entire apartment smells like burnt flesh
To my horror and amusement, you saw my purchases and decided to make us breakfast....but you don't know how to cook at all!
You got up an hour early, knowing I would be up by 9:45am

Saturday May 31, 2018 Atlanta, GA
The sun beats through the curtains into the suite on the 7th floor of this gorgeous Atlanta hotel
9:45am
I heard the door connecting the to room try to open
The little bar lock stops it
"Babe, open the door" I hear through the opening
"Ummm, No! We are getting married in a few go start getting ready" I replied
Today is the big day, and I want it to be perfect!
It has only been a little over a year and a half and we have had our problems, but we made it!
I am healthy, you are at peace, and we are ready to compete the chain
After 12:30pm today we will be ______-______
You can be on my 401K, I can sign the papers to help you get you paperwork in order for your citizenship
But before than we not to get our butts downstairs before our mother beat us both with in a inches of life

Winter 2075
This room got cold and dark
I see a bright light
I see a figure come towards me
I hear my mom's voice
"Baby, it's time"
Behind her I see my Grandmothers and grandfathers
As I real what has happened I smile because I know you were by my side until the end
You have all that you need because we we plan for the other to be taken care of should something happen
All that was ours is now yours until we meet on the other side
Then it will go towards the beautiful child we raised
Now let me rest and prepare to live into eternity with you.....

This is only one possible outcome that will result from full marriage equality
They wont all me so perfect, but everyone deserves the right to write their own love story whether it ends happily ever after or is an epic tragedy!
