Luce tried not to show how relieved he felt to hear the HAA door close behind them as they reached the street. "Would you like to grab a coffee or maybe an early lunch?" he asked Mel.

"Sure," she said.

They headed to a nearby café, where they both ordered coffee before sitting at a table at the very back. Partway between the coffee rush and the lunch rush, Luce knew the café's emptiness wouldn't last, but they could take advantage of it while it did.

Luce opened his mouth to ask Mel about her relationship with Michael.

"Gah! That was a bloody waste of time," a loud, male voice complained. Timber creaked as the man sat down at the table beside Luce and Mel.

"No, it wasn't. Those suits were perfect. You'll match the bridesmaids and the flowers, so it'll be a real wedding to remember. Just think of the photos..." the girl said dreamily as she sat in the chair across from him.

Mel covered her smile, clearly trying not to laugh. She evidently knew more about this couple and their wedding than Luce did.

"I AM thinking of the photos – we'll have them for the rest of our lives. I'm not getting married in a hot pink suit!" the man protested.

Luce burst out laughing.

The girl glared at Luce, then pursed her mouth as she turned her eyes back to her fiancé. "I thought you'd do anything for me. Now you won't even wear the suit I want you to at our wedding. Maybe you don't want to marry me at all." She rose to her full height, which would barely have reached Luce's chest. She gave a little snort and a nod, before turning her back on her fiancé to stride angrily out of the café.

Mel reached over and touched the man's arm. "Tell her you would do anything for her. Swim through sharks, give your life to save hers," she whispered.

The man pulled his arm irritably away from Mel as he stood up. Luce felt bad for her – she'd only tried to help, after all. He hoped she wouldn't be hurt. After all, humans weren't known for taking advice from strangers and maybe the bloke was better off without his bridezilla.

"Jess, I would do almost anything for you!" the man shouted. "I'd swim through a school of sharks at Trigg Beach to get to you. I'd fend off an entire gang of bikies if they threatened to hurt you."

The girl stopped and turned around.

Luce recovered from his shock quickly. "Say you'd walk through Hell for her," he suggested. "Naked."

The bloke stared at him. "That's a fucking crazy idea. Who'd walk through Hell naked?" He turned back to Jess. "And I'd marry you in my birthday suit on Swanbourne Beach if that's what you want, but if I make my brothers and my best mate wear pink suits, they'll kill me before the wedding!"

Some of the other café patrons started cheering and Jess sported a hot pink blush. "I couldn't get married on Swanbourne Beach.
