Wowie, look at me, updating within a week of the last update. This chapter is largely in text messages/ pesterchum, so be warned
Dave's POV
I woke up the morning after Gran and Pa had left. I grabbed my phone and checked through it, looking on Tumblr first. After a few seconds of scrolling, I saw a post, yelling that gay marriage was finally legal in all of America. I looked at it suspiciously, and decided to do some searching. I read through several articles and gathered that the Supreme Court had ruled that gay marriage would be legal several hours earlier. After getting over the initial shock, I grinned.
I went to pester John about it.
