The Wedding

And so it came to be that Mel and Leo married in the well. It was decided that the honour of witnessing the marriage should be bestowed upon Kat and Vicky. After all, they were pretty much the only other people alive and [reasonably] sane.

'I, Leo, take thee, Mel, to be my lawful, wedded husband.'

'Excuse me!'

'I, Leo Joseph Sollitt, take thee, Melody Victoria Heath, to be my lawful, wedded husband.'

'Whatever you say, Leo.'

So the register was signed by all present, and Mel [looking a little disgusted at the thought that she had just become Leo's 'husband'] decided to take 'You may now kiss the bride' rather literally. Several hours later, the congregation decided it was no longer practical for Leo and Mel to be allowed within a five metre radius of each other. Luckily, at that moment, the usually unrelenting Hurricane Jessica made the one merciful strike of her time, and successfully separated the busy couple. Mel wasn't too pleased, but it was good for most of the inhabitants of Cumja [especially Leo].

Next it was time to cut the cake. To hell with knives... Callum the Ninja Cat, with a swift movement of his front right-hand paw, managed to slice the entire four-tier cake into six cleanly cut slices - glass tiers and all.

As was traditional in Cumja, Mel opened her overly hench mouth and stuffed in her whole slice of cake. The standard of said cake had fallen dramatically since the tragic death of Molly... However, unperturbed, she swallowed the cake whole. At this point Leo and Kat had to save her from choking - Kat performing the Heimlich Manouevre several times whilst Leo tried to reach Mel and give her the Kiss of Life. Unfortunately, as Hurricane Jessica was still in the vicinity, Leo could not go within five metres of Mel; consequently Vicky had to give Mel mouth to mouth instead; something for which Mel was eternally grateful. Unsurprisingly, Vicky wasn't so pleased about it. Nor was Leo. How could his new spouse be kissing other people so soon after their marriage? Especially another girl...
