Prompt: Neal/Kate, happiness.
They're sitting on the hood of a legally-rented car, neither too boring nor too flashy, sharing a to-go mug of hot chocolate and watching the sun set across the Grand Canyon. In just a handful of hours it will be a new year and they've pulled off their most successful scam yet.
Neal knows that they can do this forever, him and Kate. They can do anything, everything, take the world and make it theirs, every dream a scared kid barely dared hope.
Him and Kate, together forever, nothing out of reach or too far.
She rests her head on his shoulder and says, "I want to paint a sunrise onto you."
He kisses the top of her head and replies, "Sounds good to me."
