Alec wasn’t necessarily the riskiest of people, given that he was a copper and also a relatively anxious person. But when you had mentioned in passing that the thought of, well, semi-public activities excited you, he had seemed more interested than you had thought he would be. It just so happened that the perfect opportunity presented itself to you both in the form of a wedding. One of your old school friends was getting married at some swanky acreage. It was truly spectacular, and the grounds were free for the guests to roam about after the ceremony. Alec thought you looked gorgeous, and he scrubbed up pretty well himself if you didn’t say so yourself. The ceremony went off without a hitch, and your best friend looked radiant as ever. They looked happy. Truly happy.
