"... without further ado, I now pronounce you husband and wife!" Pops declared loud and clear for all to hear. Tails wagging happily, Max and Gidget kissed each other while the whole room broke out into cheers. The atmosphere was filled with excitement.

Sitting near the back of the room with Nitro and some other Alley Cats, Ozone yawned sleepily while he clapped. It was a slow and deliberate clap. He really did not want to be here. The wedding was absolutely boring, just like he thought it would be. It was like a slow and painful death to him. However, there was one upside to it and he was sitting just a few benches in front of him.

For the past week, Ozone and Tiberius had been dating. It was extremely hard not to publicly show they were. Both had agreed to keep their relationship a secret until they figured out how they'd explain it to the others. Until that day came, the hairless feline and the red tailed hawk had to painfully wait for night to fall so they could have some time alone to themselves. Every moment spent with the old bird was the new happiest moment in the alley cat's entire life.

Ozone could hardly wait for tonight.
