“I’m glad we didn't miss this,” Oshar agreed, chuckling as Korah’s shoulders shook with mirth.

“We shall have to watch this so we can understand the jokes more fully,” he said.

‘Right, as I was saying," Adrian said, grabbing Klora’s hand. “I knew I wanted you, even if you thought I might be a criminal. But the joke's on us both, as I’m the one cuffing you with this ring to me for eternity, as I vow to love and cherish you forever.”

Klora grinned at him, a fang showing.

“I might have taken a while to figure out that the reason my senses were tingling was because you were my mate.” He held up a matching band, and Adrian lifted his other hand up for him to slide it on. “I, Klora, not only an astounding investigator for the Mylos fleet, but a fully paid up member of the official Jack Lord Appreciation Society as well as an active member of the Hawaii Five-O Fan Club established in 1968 and now for both the original as well as th reboot, do solemnly affirm these as your rights. You have the right to remain silent as well as tell me off when I mess up. Everything I say or do, you have the right to hold against me if I do mess up. You also have the right to reward me if I don’t.” He waggled his eyebrows.

I choked back another laugh at his ribald comment. Lynn was doubled over by now.

“I can’t,” she wheezed.

I patted her back. She wasn’t the only one, and he wasn’t done yet.

“You have the right to counsel, should you need advice on setting me straight if I mess things up at home. If you cannot find one amongst your friends and our family, you have the right to seek counsel from among mine.” he slid the ring on. “I hereby charge you with the crime of stealing my hearts, and declare them lost to you forever.”

“I hereby declare you husband and husband,” the officiant said, laughing and the band began playing the theme song once more, stopping as the couple reached the shrimp truck.

“Alright, let’s eat!” Klora yelled.

“This is definitely a wedding to remember,” Lynn laughed as we hurried to get in line.

“Yeah, but you gotta admit, pretty cool to have the guy who played Kamekona in the reboot running a shrimp truck just like the one on the show,” Chris replied. “Same name and all.”

“Yeah, and it certainly looks and smells good.” she agreed.

I stepped over to join Korah and Oshar who were standing by the grooms, adding our congratulations to theirs before we rejoined our mates in line. Reading the menu, I said, “I’m going to order the shoyu.”

“The jambalaya for me,” Lynn decided.

“How about we order one of everything and share so we can taste everything?” Chris suggested and we all readily agreed.

It turned out to be a wise decision. Kamekona’s got five star ratings from each of us before we even finished clearing our plates.
