10 minutes before the wedding...

"Hey, you okay?" Came a voice from behind the door. Violet shuffled forward in her wedding dress. It was floor-length and strapless and under it all, she was wearing Converse.

"Billy, you can't see me on our wedding day. It's bad luck." Violet giggled.

"That's why I'm talking to you through a door." Sanguine knocked on it twice. "Though technically, I have no eyes. So I can't literally SEE you."

"That's cheating," Violet knocked back, "but if you close your eyes, can I see you?"

"That's cheating too." He retaliated. "And not fair."

"Life's not fair." Violet leant her head against the door. "How's Anton?"

"A bit stressed. But otherwise fine." Sanguine said. "Jade?"

"Distracting herself by being busy and bossy. Well she won't admit it, but I'm her best friend, I know when she's hurting."

"I love you, Vi."

"I love you too, Billy."

"See you at the altar?"

"The altar." Violet knocked on the door and heard him walk away. Then Valkyrie ran in, holding a pair of white satin ballet slippers.

"Jade gave me these to give you."

"It's nearly the wedding. Where is she?" Violet frowned.

"Talking to Anton." Valkyrie said with a wink and Violet laughed.

"Help me get these Converse off. They're a bit small. I think they're clamped to my feet."

3 minutes to the wedding..

"Jade, can I talk?" Anton grabbed Jade's arm as she ran past.

"I'm a bit busy." Jade snapped and wrenched her arm out of his grasp.

"I'm a vicar. You have to talk to me." Anton grinned lazily.

"Idiot." Jade let herself smile. "It's," she checked her watch, "three minutes to the wedding and I'm crapping myself."

"I have to talk in front of everyone." Anton rolled his eyes.

"I know. Maybe we should..." Jade looked around. Then Anton leant forward and kissed her passionately. Then, as she pushed him away, glaring, he knelt on one knee.

"Marry me." He said.

"What the fuck? No."

"Marry me."

"Bloody no."

"Marry me."

"For God's sake, not again." Erskine appeared with Fletcher. "Anton, get up, mate, the wedding's starting and you're the vicar."

"And you, Miss No," Fletcher pointed to Jade, "are head bridesmaid. You have to go down the aisle in around 20 seconds and counting down. 19...18...17..."

"I'm going. I'm going." Jade grumbled and joined Valkyrie at the back of the church.

"How was the chat?"

"He proposed."

"Again? Dude."

"I know."
