Being in a relationship for a year is a milestone for any couple. For Big Macintosh, it is a milestone that he is happy to have reached. Too bad pride isn't a gift that Rainbow Dash would like. With less than 24 hours, Big Mac will have to hurry to find the perfect gift for a mare that has given him constant joy, some annoyance, and everything else that comes with having a girlfriend. At least he can be thankful that other parties are helping him with everything else.

Very believable story and filled with pairings I adore. You might want to find an editor for future fics, just a lot of errors that could have been fixed early on. But still a good read after a hangover.
6887847 Yeah I know you mean, I really need an editor. I was reaching that deadline though and had to make a choice. Not enter at all cause this was like the third re-write, or submit it because I had no idea if an editor would have gotten it done in time. I'm glad you liked it for the most part.
Is this some kind of wing fetish from the apples, now only bloom need a pegasi for her own
6888017 Yeah, I noticed my patterns to, I don't know why, I just thought it'd be fun. Problem with that last part, I ship Apple Bloom with a background colt named Shady Daze, an earth pony.
I was pleasantly surprised by the Undertale reference.
Well this was a lot of fun!
Plus I'm glad AJ just let them take the cider. I was pretty much muttering to myself throughout the first part of the story 'why not mention his anniversary?' or 'Why can't he just buy one from AJ?'
and the crusaders are always adorable! (Though I'm a SpikeBloom shipper, I didn't mind the SweetieSpike...mostly because it was one-sided
)
I'd give this a 9/10, a great story with three great pairings!
Keep on Keepin' on!
Whoa boy Rainbow. The first night that they do sleep in the same bed, Mac might not ever applebuck again.
Naturally, a beautiful story. Some errors but nothing major, funny as buck and loved all the pairings. Shame it did not get noticed much, excited to see what you got planned next.
I don't think that's such a good idea
He went to Fluttershy’s for assistance, only to discover that she was over at his house with Braeburn.
To be honest with you I like the shipping between Fluttershy and Braeburn that's one of those underrated shipping that never really thought of it
Way to crack under pressure soarin
“How am I cannon fodder? I saved the entire Crystal Empire!”
“And yet nopony here cares.”
Well that's kind of harsh don't you think Scootaloo
Well this was a pretty cute story so it looks like Big Mac want to do something special for Rainbow Dash and asking soarin and even the Cutie Mark Crusaders and Spike to help and soarin try to distract Applejack even though they could have just asked which apparently she was okay with this for now but it looks like these two will have their little moment together and the Cutie Mark Crusaders still got the chance to take the cider for Big Mac and it looks like both Big Mac and Rainbow Dash had a pretty good time with each other and this was a pretty cute story keep up the good work
