:D I was happy before when I thought part 4 was the ended, but this. This was AMAZING. Big soppy grin on my face. The cuteness! The hotness. Don!Smiling! <3

I'm glad they are keeping Ian. He needs a home base too.

This line in particular was beautiful and heart wrenching:
His smile disappeared suddenly. Ian’s duffel and gun were by the front door, ready for him to leave, with Colby’s smaller duffel sitting nearby. All those khaki duffels were beginning to make the place feel like a military way station: transient, and all too easy to leave with no sign anyone had ever been here.That kinda sums up Don in a nutshell doesn't it? He's so afraid of getting attached and having it taken away that he doesn't give anyone even the opportunity to stay. Vicious, vicious cycle

Don!Smiling makes everything better. And yes, they can't just turn Ian out onto the streets. Who knows what he'd get up to? ;)

That kinda sums up Don in a nutshell doesn't it? He's so afraid of getting attached and having it taken away that he doesn't give anyone even the opportunity to stay. Vicious, vicious cycle.

*nods* And I think he's unaware of a lot of his behaviour in that respect, so he doesn't understand why people don't stay with him.

I love how they keep having these super meaningful conversations disguised as banter, like the thing about the couch and the duffle or even needing Ian around for the food. They're all such emotionally stunted idiots, but in a very endearing way.

I can't tell you how happy that makes me! I wanted to knock their heads together so many times during the writing of this.

I'm thrilled you enjoyed it so much, and thank you again for your wonderful comments throughout.

again ditto Cerealkiller zero. Love the description of "Ian’s duffel and gun were by the front door, ready for him to leave, with Colby’s smaller duffel sitting nearby. All those khaki duffels were beginning to make the place feel like a military way station: transient, and all too easy to leave with no sign anyone had ever been here." hugs all three of them

Awww, yay \o/.

It's great to see Don and Colby so much more relaxed and at ease in their relationship, though it did make me a little sad for Ian when he thought he was leaving for the last time. I'm glad he's been set straight on that matter and knows he's got somewhere and someones to go home to whenever he next gets the chance.

Laura.

I'm just relieved Ian didn't slip out early and unnoticed!

Thanks so much for your feedback throughout; it's been absolutely lovely to read. I'm so glad you enjoyed this.
