So remember that silly piece of “everybody lives and is happily macking on the partner of their choice while wearing fancy clothes” fluff I wrote last month? Yeah, it decided it needed an even fluffier epilogue featuring Doug and Dominik and gratuitous smooching. Enjoy.

As he felt the car bump over the curb and into the driveway, Doug roused himself from the light doze he’d slipped into. Lifting his head from where it rested on top of Renée’s head, he smoothed down her hair and looked around.
