Danny's POV

Breath in, breath out, breath in, breath out! God, how nervous? I can't help but check my watch every three seconds, I constantly pace as I anxiously wait for Alice. I can't wait to see her face when she realises where we're getting married. Max, Fatani and Rowan are doing a good job of ushering, and Evan is stood proudly near the front talking to Harry. There's such a happy atmosphere. I smiled - perfection, almost… will be perfection when Alice gets here!

"Danny." I turned round to see Jacob, the man who had been sort of the head man of the men working on the rabies operation. I shook his hand as he approached.

"Jacob, how you doing?" I asked.

"Pretty good, seems a long time ago since I last saw you and Alice! Can't believe you two are now getting married! All started with a rabies outbreak eh?" He smiled. "I'm pleased for the pair of you."

"Thanks Jacob." I told him, "Glad you're here! When you said you might not make it Alice was gutted!"

"Ahh bless her, so Danny, you nervous?" Jacob asked.

"As hell." I laughed, he laughed too before patting my shoulder.

"Well good luck, break a leg, and I'll leave you to bask in your nerves, chat later!" He grinned before walking off.

"Positions please!" Caroline shouted elegantly, oh god, did this mean Alice was here then behind those trees. I gulped as I felt a number of hands on me. This was it!

Alice's POV

"Dupe where are you going?" I asked impatiently as he took yet another turn further into the bush… I would like to get to my wedding!

"You'll see!" He replied smiling innocently. Liv and Charlie were avoiding all eye contact with me, and Rosie had a massive smile on her face.

"Spill." I directed it at all three of them, they all turned to face me.

"We don't know anything!" Liv protested, all of them had innocent faces.

"Just bloody wait woman, we'll be there in five minutes if you stop nagging!" Dupe joked, I slapped him playfully. I looked at Rosie, Liv and Charlie. They all had the same type of dress on, well except Charlie had straps over her shoulders. All long but slim fitted blue dresses. I smiled, they had chosen them, and all had wanted to match. They'd complimented it with silver jewellery and heels, even Charlie had the smallest of heels on! I smiled as I watched them all laugh and joke.

That's when I got a real sense of my surroundings. Wait a minute, behind those trees. Oh my god. I felt my hand fly to my mouth and my eyes fill up. Rosie, Liv and Charlie all grinned like maniacs, as Dupe turned round to face us.

"Here." He said softly. "This was Danny's surprise."

I was speechless… god this was so beautiful!

"Ready?" Dupe asked, as Charlotte got her flowers and got in front of me and Rosie and Liv got behind.

"Yep, thanks for this Dupe." I smiled as he took my arm.

"Not a problem!" He grinned as the wedding march, played by the locals on their native African instruments, I couldn't help but have the biggest, most beaming grin on my face… this was really it!

Danny's POV

I turned around slowly as the march began. That's when I saw Alice. I felt my heart beat a hundred times faster, my eyes began to well up, a grin the size of the world making its way across my face. Alice looked stunning, beautiful, perfect.

As Dupe walked her down the isle, I just couldn't keep my eyes off her. Her dark hair cascading down her back freely in gentle curls, her radiant smile, and those beautiful blue eyes. Her perfect figure, accented by her dress ,the turquoise colour contrasting perfectly with her eyes, and the slim fit made her look just perfect.

She giggled slightly as Dupe placed her hand in mine, I swear that man had tears in his eyes. I think he joined Caroline and stood with Alice's bridesmaids, but I couldn't tell you for sure. My eyes were focussed on Alice, as I gazed helplessly into her blue eyes.

"You old romantic." Alice giggled quietly, as we held hands, I squeezed hers gently.

"Only the best for you." I smiled as the minister addressed us. I grinned at her as we both turned to face him slightly, but my eyes were still very firmly set on Alice.

Rosie's POV

I don't know if either dad or Alice had realised they were crying but they were, thank god Alice had waterproof mascara on! I too had a tear in my eye. My dad looked so happy and Alice looked just, over the moon. Charlie was holding onto my hand tightly, and Liv was stood leaning on some tall boy, Thaboo I think he's called. See's to be a bit keen on Liv! I spotted Max and winked, he smiled back as he stood tall and proud at the back with Rowan and Fatani. Max looked so handsome in his little suit bless him!

"Do you take Danny Lawrence Trevanion to be your husband?" asked the minister.

" I do." Alice replied quickly and over enthusiastically, everyone laughed slightly.

"Do you Danny Lawrence Trevanion take Alice Marie Collins to be your wife?" the minister looked to Dad, but he'd already replied with another enthusiastic I do!

He began to carry on, then they exchanged rings. Dad had to wipe his eyes as Alice placed that ring on his finger, he was just so joyous and happy!

"I know pronounce you man and wife." The minister grinned. "You may now kiss the bride."

And all I can say is… Dad definitely didn't waste any time, I'd be surprised if Alice didn't have to replace her lip gloss!

Danny's POV

"… you may now kiss the bride." Finally! I pulled Alice into my arms as her arms flung around my neck. I kissed her tenderly, with passion, long and slow. I wanted to show her just how much I truly loved her. Okay, so maybe this was a bit to erm… passionate for public, but I don't care, right now, it's me and Alice.

As we pulled away and hugged romantically, I heard a cheer, a flash of cameras, a few aww's here and there.

"Mr and Mrs Trevanion." Alice whispered softly, pulling away slightly to look into my eyes. "Perfect."

"Who'd of thought it eh?" I smiled, kissing her once more.

"Can you pose for a few pictures?" Asked the cameraman, who we had no recollection of hiring. He snapped a few pictures, giving us the odd direction. Kiss now, put your arm round her waist, heads closer, look into each others eyes, hand on his chest. After a number of snaps, we were crowded by family and friends all hugging and congratulating us.

Wow - Alice was finally Alice Trevanion.

Alice's POV

I'm married. Wow. The best day of my life, seriously and it's not even over! The only day that comes close to this is Charlie being born, that's special to me. Dupe was driving Danny and I back to Leopards Den, where the party was the long way round, the camera man was also coming with us. Seriously, where did he come from?

I was now leant in Danny's chest as Dupe drove over the rough terrain. My husband. Wow, just wow. Mrs Alice Trevanion. No more Collins. I grinned, I was estatic.

"I love you Danny." I smiled looking up at him.

"I love you too." Danny replied before kissing me, I felt his desire, his passion. It danced all around my mouth. I began to respond stronger more urgently, I felt Danny laugh on my lips, I wanted him to know how much I loved him… but we have tonight for that!

Danny and I sat in silence for the remainder of the journey not a bad silence, a comfortable one. Danny was comfy actually, he's always been a good pillow. His hands were slowly working their way around every part of my body, I don't think there's anyway he hasn't touched, but then again I can't complain. I took hold of his hand over my shoulder, as I came to terms with the fact my dream from all those years ago had finally come true. I was Mrs Trevanion.

Liv's POV

We were all well and truly in party mode by the time Danny and Alice to back. They were the subject of a thousand photos, and both looked so pleased, so happy, ecstatic. They couldn't keep their hands off each other and both were smiling and greeting everyone. I watched as they laughed and joked, talking to all of their guests in turn.

I remembered Danny marrying mum. It had been a traditional wedding. White puffy dress, Top hat and tail, church, football club executive suite party room or something for the function. I sighed, I never thought Danny would marry again, not back then. He looks happier today than he did then. That deep down truly hurt. But hey, he's happy and that's the main job.

"Liv." I heard Alice's gentle Scottish voice break my memories. Danny was attached to her, literally.

"Hey" I smiled, turning round to see Charlotte bound up to Alice. I noticed how Alice took her into her arms and kissed the top of her head gently. Alice was a fantastic mum, her bond with Charlie is so strong. Danny watched them proudly.

"Thanks for everything today Liv." Danny smiled, his northern accent obvious, god he sounds so Lancashire at times! Oh yeh, he's from what is it St-Anne's or something like that? He did tell me but I forgot, I mean it's hardly important is it?

"Your welcome" I grinned as I saw Thaboo approach, he'd just about made it back for the wedding. I was so pleased to see him, although I think I may have some explaining to do to Rosie later.

"Thaboo!" Danny laughed shaking his hand.

"Hey man, congratulations yeh?" He laughed, returning the shake and giving Alice a quick hug.

"Thanks Thaboo, listen we'll leave you to it." Alice smiled, as they walked off, I saw Charlotte run to Rosie, leaving just me and Thaboo.

Alice's POV

"Want a drink?" Danny asked, kissing the side of my head gently.

"Yeh why not." He began to unwind his arm from me but I quickly put it back.

"Rule of the wedding - we are together, side by side throughout!" I giggled.

"Ahh! Yes!" Danny laughed squeezing my shoulder. "Well, maybe we'll have to get glued by the hip?"

"The hip, oh that's so old and boring." I sighed, pretending to be bored with the idea, Danny laughed.

"We'll have to experiment later." He whispered into my ear seductively. I felt myself melt, swoon swoon, literally! I looked up at him and grinned.

"It's a date." I whispered before, in Charlie's words, eating Danny's face off once more. Ahh well, at least he tastes good.

A/N - I think this chapter failed.

But never mind :')
