Elle walked over to the chocolate fountain and dipped a strawberry into the pool, "guys, don't let this go to waste."

"We've got all day Elle, and there's something we need to do before getting too drunk and full," Scott stood up and offered his hand to Kayo, "I think it's time for our dance."

John grabbed the camera off the table, "all ready."

"Virgil, if you would?" Scott smirked at him as the group moved to the centre of the now open aisle area.

Elle looked at her husband in surprise, "when were you asked to do their first dance?"

"I offered as soon as Scott told me he was proposing to Kayo, I've been working on it in secret," Virgil twirled one of her curls around his finger then walked over to the piano, he readjusted his blazer then sat down on the stool as Kayo and Scott held each other, John took photos as the music began and Alan filmed the couple waltzing together on the grass under the fairy lights twinkling over everyone. The piano melody drifted romantically to the dance, every flourish matching step and lift much to the cries of awe and claps. Virgil watched them dance whilst keeping his tears back and caught Scott's eye, the eldest smiled graciously at him before resting his forehead against Kayo's as the final chords were laid down and he tipped his bride back effortlessly on a long glissando at the top ranges of the piano, Virgil released the pedal on applause and came over to stand beside Elle.

"Thank you, Virgil," Kayo wrapped her arms around the pilot and he held her tightly.

"Anything for my best sister."

Elle leant over John's arm to look at the shots he had taken, "they're great John."

"Thanks Elle. Feeling a little unhugged?" The ginger looked over at Kayo and Virgil who were still hugging but had moved back to the piano.

"It doesn't bother me," she glanced at Scott and smirked, "it's bothering Scott though."

"How can you tell?"

"I can read his mind remember?" Elle smirked, "I'll sort this out."

"FAB," John sat down next to Grandma and showed her the photos.

"Are you alright Scott?" Elle asked the groom who was leaning against the altar.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"You're jealous mister, Kayo has just married you and now she's sitting beside my husband. Relax. You can read her mind as well as I can."

Scott sighed and turned to face Elle with a smile, "you're right Elle. Sorry."

"You need to keep your mind closed bro," she hugged his arm, "you should see the photos John took, they're amazing."

Scott smiled at her and walked back to the tables, "thanks."

Kayo smiled as Virgil stopped playing, "that was a lovely thing to do for us, I wish Scott and I had done the same thing for your wedding."

"No worries, Elle organised a band remember? We couldn't have you walking down the aisle or dancing to nothing," Virgil smiled as he sat back on the stool.

"My husband is looking jealous, we should get back to the group."

Virgil laughed, "Elle will have that sorted out I'm sure. You look amazing Kayo, I don't know why you hate dresses so much."

"Because they're uncomfortable mainly, and there's always the issue that some people look great in them, and I'm just not one of those."

"Nonsense," Virgil helped her to her feet and squeezed her hand, "what made you choose a non-traditional dress?"

Kayo smirked at the mini skirt design and the train billowing out behind her, "for the exact reason that I don't like dresses, I can relax a bit, and I can walk."

"Thanks for choosing that blue colour for the bridesmaids, Elle and Penny look fantastic."

"You've been staring at Elle all morning, I knew what I was doing the whole time," Kayo walked confidently back to the table before her heel hit a stone and she tripped, Scott was holding her in a blink of an eye and caught her before she even toppled, "woah."

"Walking in heels is easy huh?" Scott smiled as he put an arm around her.

"Well, they are six inches."

Virgil rejoined Elle with Penelope and Gordon, "that's them sorted out."

Elle nodded before kissing him gently, "yep."

"I'm so glad Scott and Kayo got sunshine for their wedding," Penelope looked up at the sun shining down on the garden, "but it feels very odd to not be doing anything rescue related," she spotted Parker coming down the steps, "ah Parker, did Matilda get home safely?"

"Oh yes M'Lady, h'there were no problems."

"Good. You may have the rest of the day off, Parker, enjoy yourself."

"Thank you M'Lady."

"Champagne Parker?" Grandma asked.

"No thank you, Mrs Tracy, I'll have a beer."

Penelope smiled at her security guard before turning to Gordon, "you've been awfully quiet since the ceremony sweetheart, is anything wrong?"

"No, I'm just really happy for my big brother," Gordon grinned as he watched Scott and Kayo share a kiss before popping strawberries into each other's mouths.

"They do make a wonderful couple," Elle leant back against Virgil and shivered when his fingers drummed on her thigh, "hey, not here," she whispered.

Virgil nodded, "alright. Top up?"

"Yes please."

Virgil took the champagne bottle out of the ice bucket and poured her another glass as Scott walked over to the piano, "what on earth?"

Elle sipped the fizzy drink then followed Virgil's line of direction, "he must be drunk."

"I'm not drunk Elle, it's a wedding present," Scott lifted the lid up to its full height then sat down on the stool as Kayo gasped taking a seat on the bench nearest the aisle.

"A wedding present?"

John walked down the steps and over to the piano holding a cello carefully in his hand then sat down on a chair bedside Scott, "ready?"

"John can play the cello?" Penelope asked Grandma who was now holding the camera.

"Oh yes, his mother taught him."

"He was in the school orchestra too," Alan added as he piled more food onto his plate.

John smiled at Scott as he tuned up with the piano before smiling at Kayo, "it was a joint decision."

Scott began to play the chords to Turning Pages and much to everyone's surprise he sang.

"I've waited so many years and I'd wait a million more for you.

Nothing prepared me or what the privilege of being yours would do?

When I had only felt the warmth within your touch, and if I had only seen your smile when you blush. Or how you curl your lip when you shapeshift next to me.

Well I would have known, what I was living for all along.

You're what I'm living for."

John joined in and smiled at Kayo before closing his eyes harmonising the strings with the piano's, Kayo blushed pink and wiped the forming tears away as the song cuddled her accompanied by Scott's voice, a voice so strong and heartfelt it was like no-one else was in the garden, she felt as if a spotlight had enclosed on her and the instrument creating an invisible pull taking her to the man she had just married.

"Your love is my turning page, where all your the sweetest words remain. Every kiss is a cursive line and touch is a redefining phrase..."

Scott closed his eyes as he and John duetted on an interlude intertwining melodies and rhythm, the fairy lights sparkled in the canopy.

"Though we're tethered to a story we must tell, I see you, and know it'd be true. With a whisper, we will tame ourselves, like a feather bringing kingdoms to their knees..."

Scott looked up from at the keys and Kayo spotted tears falling from the eldest's eyes as he sang the chorus again, John swayed with the cello watching his brother beside him trying desperately to keep his emotions together whilst playing, and gradually the song came to an end, Scott left the notes to echo away through the piano and slid his foot back from the pedal as he stood up.

"Thanks, John."

John squeezed Scott's shoulder before putting the cello down gently on the grass, "you're welcome."

Kayo leapt into Scott's arms as he left the piano, "you are one hell of a husband, thank you!"

Scott buried his face into her shoulder before pulling back and snogging her, he heard conversation spark up again and continued to kiss his bride as the family went back to the buffet table, his own tears splashed onto Kayo's arm and she looked up at him, "sorry."

Kayo brushed his tears away with the side of her thumbs, "shh shh. I love you so much Scott, hey there have been times where I've wanted to kill you for your stubbornness, but I don't know what I'd do without you."

Scott smiled through his tears and placed his hands on her hips, "you're the only girl for me, you complete me."

Virgil turned his back on the couple, "get a room I'd say."

Elle elbowed him harshly, "don't be mean."

"Oww! My god Elle, you're made of rock."

Penelope laughed, "that did look like it hurt."

Brains suddenly interrupted, "sorry I've been so quiet, I've been updating this camera to t-take group shots, it works like a photo-booth."

Alan grinned, "like those ones you get at theme parks?"

"I've never b-been, but I'll take your word for it."

"Sounds fun Brains," Gordon smiled, "where is it?"

"Just down the steps from the pool, so uh up the steps from here. Y-you can't miss it."

Gordon took Penelope's hand, "it's about time we got some photos of ourselves."

Scott walked over with Kayo, "what's this about a camera?"

"Photobooth fun," Alan informed them, "Brains has hooked it up."

Kayo hugged her husband's arm, "we need to do one. We should transform."

"But Kayo, your makeup?"

"I think when I transform back it should be ok. I shapeshift to my actual body, this is a copy," she ran a finger down her own cheek, "I'll try it out."

"Alright, photobooth then," Scott held her hand as she transformed in front of everyone, her blue body was covered by the white dress and her hair was still in its design, Penelope pouted but Scott grinned, "it worked."

"Just about, if that hairstyle becomes unravelled when you transform back, don't blame me," Penelope crossed her legs as she sat at the table and Gordon laughed.

"I guess we'll find out later," Kayo tugged Scott up to the patio and they disappeared.

"They will be there for ages," Virgil remarked pompously, "I say we can chill out a bit, we're all very soldier-like."

Elle laughed, "I've just thought that too."

"It's too light to really appreciate the lights at the moment," Gordon looked up at the canopy which the sun was still casting a shimmer onto.

"Then there should be some dancing going on," Virgil hooked his iPod up to the speakers, "I can have Thunderbird 2 drop off module 1?"

"That will send a shockwave through the house," Elle smirked, "I don't think that's a good idea sweetheart."

"Fine, but at least let's have some music here," Virgil pressed play on an album called wedding, "I've had this since our own wedding, most of the songs are on here minus our first dance."

Elle stood up and walked into the main canopy area with Virgil, she placed her hand on his shoulder as he pulled her close and they danced, "I've been meaning to ask you this for ages now, it's not really the time or place but.."

"You can ask me anything Ells."

"Was it always your dream to be in International Rescue?"

Virgil sighed as he tightened his grip around Elle's waist, "no, it wasn't. It was dad's for sure and we went along with it."

Elle stopped dancing and took Virgil's hand then walked over to the benches by the altar, "so you regret joining?"

"I don't regret it, I love rescuing people now and I met you of course. Although my dream was to either be a professional concert pianist or work in the field of engineering, I could've gone anywhere with that, hence why I do my own work on Thunderbird 2."

Elle stroked his neck gently, "you can still fulfil those dreams?"

"No I can't, not the pianist side anyway, I don't have time."

"What about the engineering?"

Virgil smiled as he rubbed her hand, "I do it here, but it's not the same as doing it for a paid job, but like I told Alan, when someone makes a call they deserve to know someone is out there listening and coming to get them."

Elle moved closer to him and kissed his cheek, "you're always a concert pianist in my eyes and the best engineer I know."

"Thanks Elle. What was your dream?"

"Just to be a musician, that's why I did a degree in music, but since becoming a vampire, I've loved helping those in need, it makes me feel alive again," Elle sighed, "of course I'll have to tell my parents at some point. That will be fun."

Virgil smiled at her, "it'll be fine, how do you think they'll react when they see me in birdform?"

Elle laughed, "they'll probably tell you to leave me, but that's never going to happen."

Virgil looked back at the dance floor where Scott was twirling with Kayo and Gordon was dancing with Penelope, "good. People are finally relaxing."

Elle nodded, "come on, this is a wedding, not a time to be depressed."

A few hours and drinks later, everyone was happily drunk and the light was dark enough for the lights to finally bathe the canopy in a warm glow.

"Ok, time to tease the bride and groom!" John grinned as Scott picked his bottle up off the table.

"Since when is that a wedding tradition?" Kayo asked slurring slightly.

"Since now," Gordon smirked, "remember when we were kids and Scott managed to lock himself in the bathroom?"

Virgil laughed, "yep, dad found him crying in the bath."

Elle chuckled, "awwh poor Scotty."

"It wasn't that funny Alan, you don't even remember it."

"Still funny though," Alan pouted as he looked at Grandma.

"What about Kayo's first knockout?" Virgil smirked at his sister.

"Don't remind me, I am so sorry Virgil."

"She knocked you out?" Elle looked at him in surprise.

"We were teenagers."

"And you pissed me off," Kayo laughed as she chucked a crisp at him.

"You knocked him out though," Gordon rested his arm behind Penelope's back, "out like a light."

"It wasn't that bad," Grandma sympathised as laughs rang out loudly.

"I did have to give him s-stitches," Brains remarked which resulted in more laughter.

Virgil ran a finger along his forehead, "luckily my eyebrow here covers the scar."

Kayo hid her face on Scott's shoulder, "so embarrassing."

Scott laughed as he kissed the top of her head, "we had a good giggle when it happened. Although dad didn't."

"Yes he did, your mother and father found it very funny," Grandma laughed, "don't tell fibs."

Elle sipped her wine, "sounds like it was all done in good humour."

"Yep, your husband thought it was a good idea to piss off a shapeshifter."

"Language," Grandma scolded.

"To lighten the mood," Scott stood up, "Virgil, want to play our party piece?"

"Hell yes," Virgil grabbed his beer and followed Scott to the piano, "come on guys."

Elle looked around at the two brothers sitting on the stool together, "what showpiece?"

"Oh it's great, I'm going to film this," Alan grinned at her as she turned to face the piano, "go on guys."

"If any of this sounds awful, it's because drink has been added," Virgil put his bottle down onto the lid with a smirk then nodded to Scott who began to play, Elle snapped photos on her phone as she laughed at the two eldest and Kayo photobombed them as best she could. About five minutes into the song the stool was kicked back and the pianists were standing side by side pushed on by cheers of encouragement, Parker approached Penelope who was watching the performance from the main table.

"H'are you alright M' Lady?"

"Parker, I told you to take the rest of the day off, but I am fine thank you."

"This is certainly some performance."

Gordon smirked, "this is nothing compared to the show they put on at one of dad's Christmas office parties a couple of years ago, that was amazing."

Penelope smirked, "it must've been if it was anything like this."

Virgil started a glissando at the top of the piano and Scott finished it on the low notes before the pedal sprang up and they high fived, "yes! Nice one big brother."

Scott wrapped an arm around his brother's shoulders, "better than that office party?"

"Much," Virgil took his beer back and clinked it against Scott's, "cheers."

Meanwhile, The Hood was admiring his colleague's bugs, they were designed with only one motive; complete destruction.

"Excellent. We'll send the auto-destruct ones in first, they'll blow up inside the hangars and then we'll follow."

"And what if they fight back?"

"Oh I guarantee they'll fight back, but we have the element of surprise. I only use my powers on my niece as a last resort, and she's just got married, her mind will be on only one thing."

The Mechanic smiled, "the ship is ready to go, the last clones are onboard."

"No time to lose. One wedding and possibly five funerals," the Hood laughed maliciously as he followed The Mechanic up into the ship.

The evening drew in and the family had split completely across the house. Kayo and Scott had said goodnight to everyone and disappeared down to the beach huts, Penelope had taken Gordon to her room and John was in the game room with Alan. Grandma, Brains and Parker were in their own rooms and down in the garden, Virgil was serenading Elle at the piano where the two had retreated to not long after the newlyweds had said goodnight.

Elle looked up at the fairy lights, "I wonder if these go off automatically?"

"I very much doubt that," Virgil laughed.

"Well they'll die out eventually, I don't want to destroy the atmosphere just yet."

Virgil smiled as he watched his fingers making sure to not mess up a single phrase, "do you think it will last?"

"Scott and Kayo? Oh absolutely, they'll never break up, Kayo is his soul mate. It's a pretty powerful thing, I can feel you even if I'm away from you, there's an invisible bond and I'm sure Scott gets it with Kayo."

"That was a riddle and a half," Virgil smirked as he elbowed her gently.

"You know what I mean," she sighed as she leant against his arm, "thanks for playing so much of the ceremony repertoire today."

"You were busier than me, it made sense."

"It's not just that, you're a better pianist than me."

"You're twice as good."

"You're just saying that to be nice," Elle laughed, "I was all over the place; missed notes, dodgy chords, sloppy peddling."

"You are wearing platform heels."

"Alright, I'll give you that one. But I was so nervous, I didn't want to mess up for them."

"You didn't, it was beautiful. Play me something now, I won't judge at all, I never do."

Elle cupped his chin in her hand and kissed him gently, "you're too charming, budge up then?"

"I can't really, this piano stool really isn't very big."

Elle looked up at him narrowing her eyes seductively, "uh huh."

Virgil smirked back and pulled her to his side swiftly, "I guess we can fit."

Down in the main beach hut Kayo had removed the skirt from her dress and Scott had her against the wall in a passionate kiss, his teeth tore at her blue neck and her nails clawed against his back now bare from his shirt removal, his fingers made quick work of the wedding dress zip and it fell to the ground, he bit her lip with a grin as he undid his own trousers and she looked straight at him with orange eyes.

"Is that your natural eye colour?" Scott panted as he paused caressing her.

"I told you I could change them to any colour, whatever your preference."

"I prefer your green eyes if I'm honest."

Kayo smiled and kissed him harder as she kicked off her shoes and hooked her legs around his waist as he held her tightly, "do you think anyone will hear us?"

Scott shook his head as he fell back onto the sofa, "only if they're perverts," he chuckled, "I don't think anyone is like that here. You're so gorgeous, I can't believe I waited this long to marry you."

"And you're talking so drunk, by the time this makeout is over you'll be sober," Kayo grinned and twisted her fingers into his hair as she snogged him again gasping slightly as his fingers stroked the inside of her thigh as they fell onto the sofa.

Scott smiled as he pressed his lips against hers as he pulled her hips down against his own, "till death do us part, Mrs Tracy."

"Death already has, have you failed to notice you're a vampire?" Kayo winked. "Penalty to me," Scott grinned fangs at her and he flipped Kayo onto her front as she laughed surrendering her body to him, embracing fully that he was finally her husband.
