Who: Miranda Lawson and Big Macintosh
What Fancy date-type things!
Where: Fancy date-type place?
Warnings: ~~Maybe towards the end.~~. Yes. Very yes.

It wasn't often that Mac would send messages to her whilst he was out working. Usually, Miranda just knew where he was, how long he'd probably be, and to drag him back if he was out for too long. This was clearly something different, especially since it seemed to imply he'd be back earlier than expected.

He'd said fancy, so that was what she'd gone for, a fairly low-cut number in red, just because he'd said she looked good in it once or twice previously. It was probably a good thing that she wasn't showing all that much just yet - an unexpected quirk of her genetics, she assumed.

Maybe they weren't all bad. Once she was ready, all that was left was just to wait for him... and she was fairly sure he wouldn't be long.

To say he was already nervous would be the understatement of the universe. He brushed back his hair, and tucked at the collars of his jacket.

He made sure he looked decent, brand new suit, haircut, clean shave, and new shoes. In his hands was a bouquet of roses. Now, he knew he usually got sunflowers, but this day required something even more special.

He took no time at all to open the door and walk in, and when he saw her, his jaw dropped. "Wow..."

	Miranda couldn't help but laugh, even with how amazing he looked. "Don't tell me I've already broken your brain, Mac. Can't do with that." It wasn't often he dressed up, so this was definitely the sort of memory she'd end up treasuring. He looked damned good in a suit - you just couldn't deny that. (Reply to this)

	"Not in that sorta way. Yer just mighty gorgeous." Offered the roses to her. "Not that ya ain't gorgeous all the time, but... uh... yeah!" He's already a bit flustered. "Okay, so we're goin' to this gala thing fer farmers and I was allowed to bring someone." Smiled and pulled her close, pushing a kiss to her lips. (Reply to this)

	Miranda knew what he'd meant, really. Him stumbling over his words like that was far too endearing, though, so she could hardly bring herself to correct him. She kept the kiss short, pulling away and just lightly running her hands down his chest, largely on the pretense of making sure everything was right. "So, you chose me? Nice of you, really." (Reply to this)

	Mac shifted to holding her hips. "Of course I'd choose ya, ain't got anyone else I'd over ya." Smiled and put a kiss to her forehead before grasping her hand. "We ain't wantin' to be late." Tipped his head down, motioned for them to go. "I figured we could use the portkey than go from there." (Reply to this)

He really did have a thing for making her blush, didn't he? She lightly squeezed his hand when he took hers, smiling just slightly.

"We're lucky those things don't affect me badly." She knew Tali still had massive troubles with them, largely due to how they disoriented her. Being disoriented and Quarian didn't tend to be a good combination, after all. "It's not too far from where it'll drop us off, is it?"

	eeeyup 2012-03-17 07:17 pm UTC (link)
	"Nope, ain't far at all. Maybe a few blocks walk." Led her out and started towards the port key. His free hand is in his pocket. "Try not to eat everythin', okay?" Stuck his tongue at her, he's totally teasing. (Reply to this)

	cerberusofficer 2012-03-17 07:24 pm UTC (link)
	Miranda rolled her eyes and whacked him in the arm, careful not to hit too hard. Wouldn't do to put him off. "I'm not that bad." (Reply to this)

	eeeyup 2012-03-17 07:26 pm UTC (link)
	"I ain't knowin', ya done eat near what I do lately." Mock winced and twirled her around to pull her close. Yes, he's being very affectionate today, he wants it to be perfect. (Reply to this)

	cerberusofficer 2012-03-17 07:58 pm UTC (link)
	Miranda stuck her tongue out at him. If he complained about her being immature, she could pin the blame entirely on him. She'd never been this bad before she'd met him. "There are two babies, you know. I have every excuse in the world." Even with her genetics, there was no escaping the need for nutrition. (Reply to this)

	"I know." Smirked and stepped for the port key. Once there it isn't too much of a walk before they're up the stairs and stepping into a very extravagant ballroom, and a large stage up front with a band. "this way." He took her hand, leading to a table near the stage with his name on it and pulled the chair out for her. (Reply to this)

This certainly wasn't what most people would expect when it came to a farmers' gala, or whatever you'd call this thing, so it was certainly a pleasant surprise for Miranda. Mac certainly had his ways of continually surprising her.

"This is... nice." It was strange to be in a place that counted as 'fancy' with him, but she'd come to adapt quickly, she was sure. "How long've you been planning this?"

"Would ya believe me if I told ya I done been planning this for two months?" Tipped his head to the side and smiled. "I been excited fer it, ain't everyday I get to take ya out to somethin' real nice."

He wrapped his arm around her, looking to the front as a man began to silent auction and the thank yous. He has his hand in his pocket, twirling it around. He can't really help the nerves. Sure, they proposed in Equestria in a similar fashion, but that didn't make it any less nerve wracking.

Two whole months and he'd been able to keep it secret? Maybe Miranda needed to start giving him more credit when it came to his subtlety, considering how she'd usually always been able to see things like this coming. "It's a pretty amazing surprise..."

She could tell he was nervous, having learnt how to recognise things like that when she was still with Cerberus, but couldn't pinpoint precisely why. It'd probably surface eventually.

"Amazin' surprise fer an amazin' woman." Leaned over to kiss her cheek before looking up to the man talking. It seemed to go on forever, thanking the people coming, starting off the other events to raise money, and many other things that had to be said.

Once the guy was finally finished, the music started and the waiters headed out to ask if people were ready. The waiter by there table asked and Mac shook his head. "Nnnope, I ain't ready yet. Done ain't had time fer lookin'." He turned to Miranda. "Ya ready fer orderin', Honey?"

He was going to make sure this day was the best and one of the most memorable days of her life. He was going to make damn sure of that.

True, it did seem to go on forever, but at least Miranda had something fairly attractive to occupy her time with. She was allowed to be shallow from time to time, wasn't she?

"I'm... not really sure." True, some of it was interesting enough, but with how her hormones seemed to rule her life recently... well, decisions were more than a little difficult. "Considering I'm pregnant, I should probably go with something that'll help..."

She paused, biting her lip and looking over the options one last time. "So... I think I'll go with the spinach, mushroom and chibe mac and cheese with five cheeses. Or I think the babies are going to declare war on my spine again."

	Much as he tried to suppress it, he couldn't help that laugh that escaped. He scratched the back of his head, trying to not get himself hit. The waiter took her order down, and took down what Mac wanted and went off. (Reply to this)

	cerberusofficer 2012-03-18 01:50 pm UTC (link)
	Miranda rolled her eyes and none-too-subtly kicked him under the table. "Be nice, Mac." Honestly, he was so lucky he didn't have to go through what she did. Especially since the two of them already seemed to have inherited his strength, much to her displeasure. (Reply to this)

	eeeyup 2012-03-18 01:54 pm UTC (link)
	Mock winced and rubbed at his leg. "Hey!" She's so lucky that today is her day. Once the music started playing that he knew he could try and show the dancing he learned. He stood up and bowed, offering his hand. "Care to dance, honey?" (Reply to this)

	cerberusofficer 2012-03-18 01:57 pm UTC (link)
	Miranda smirked just slightly at the mock-wince. She knew it hadn't really hurt him, not all that much anyway, but it was good to get some form of reaction. She took his hand, letting him pull her up. "I don't see why not. Try not to step on my feet too much?" She was just teasing. Even as a former pony, Mac did have some amount of coordination... (Reply to this)

	eeeyup 2012-03-18 02:01 pm UTC (link)
	"Reckon I'll do my best..." His nervousness just spiked. He led her to the dance floor, twirling her once before pulling her close. He took her hand, resting his other on her lower back, keeping her pressed against him. He's a bit awkward about it, but he's doing as best he can. He only looks down at his feet when he absolutely has to. "Ya... Ya havin' a nice time?" (Reply to this)

	cerberusofficer 2012-03-18 02:08 pm UTC (link)
	True, he was being slightly awkward about it, but in Miranda's eyes, he was doing just fine. Mostly because he'd completely avoided stepping on anything so far. "I'm with you. So... of course," it wasn't the sort of thing they usually did, true, but different things were nice. Kept things from stagnating or getting boring. (Reply to this)

He twirled her again, pulling her closer."Y'know, I... There's somethin' I done been thinkin' 'bout a lot." He smiled, pushing a kiss to her forehead. "Ya, ya make me feel... Like I actually fit in this here world. Like I done belong to somethin' great."

He pushed a hand to her stomach. "And, when we found out about these two here. Reckon I just... "He is going to go and explode, if that's okay?

He twirled her out, and when he pulled her back he has dropped to one knee. The people around them start to gasp and mutter things under their breath.

"Miranda, meetin' ya was the best thing that happened to me. I ain't ever feel the way ya make me feel. I don't want to just call ya my girlfriend. I want to make ya even happier, keep ya in my life fer as long as ya done will have me." He bit his lip and reached into his pocket, pulling out the ring.

"Honey, will ya marry me?" Took in a deep breath. He's more than certain he's never been so nervous in his entire life!

For possibly one of the first times in her life, Miranda was struck speechless. He... actually wanted to...? After so long of being wanted only for her powers, her genetics, here was a man who actually wanted her for... pretty much everything she was.

"Mac, I..." What could she say, honestly? She could hardly breathe, let alone think... in place of an answer, she yanked him up to his feet using her biotics, kissing him fiercely. Hopefully, he'd take the hint.

(Reply to this)

	eeeyup 2012-03-18 02:36 pm UTC (link)
	And his heart may've just jumped into his throat. He pulled her even closer, kissing just as fiercely while slipping the ring onto her finger. the people around were clapping and cheering, some of the woman going on about it being the most romantic thing they've seen. He pulled away, smiling at her. "I love ya, so very much." (Reply to this)
