He lets her know that he is serious about what he said – he’s with Cassie and that’s final, but Belle isn’t going to give up that easily! Dan corners Leah and asks her what is going on with the attitude? Leah admits that it is hard because every time she goes to speak to Sal, Dan is there. Is she jealous? Dan seems to think so, they part ways, both clearly frustrated. Robbie and Tasha sneak off when the others aren’t looking… What are they up to?

The young lovers can’t take their eyes off each other. Applause and cheers from all as Robbie and Tasha share a passionate kiss at the close of the ceremony and are showered with rose petals.

Matilda takes Belle aside and warns her to keep her hands off Ric – Cassie and Ric are Matilda’s mates – she doesn’t want this to get ugly. Belle comments that Lucas is rather cute, knowing this will aggravate Matilda too! And it does… Lucas steps in to break it up – Belle smiles to herself…

The happy couple take to the dance floor for their wedding waltz. As Robbie twirls Tasha across the floor, she becomes unsteady on her feet and faints!
