This actually brings up a very good point. Bubs and Faye are already living together. That makes any sort of relationship immediately serious.
When roommates get romantic a few courtship steps are automatically skipped... steps that can help build the foundation of the early relationship. Sure, being roommates they already know a lot of each other's idiosyncrasies, but that's no replacement for the initial courtship phase.
Basically, once the initial dopamine surge wears off they will find themselves already thrust into a very deep situation. They are living together, managing a business together, laboring side-by-side at said business, are good friends AND are now romantically involved. That's a hell of a lot of pressure on every aspect of their lives while they're trying to sort through their feelings.
Not that they can't cope with it all... but it's a lot to think about. :psyduck:

Thank you. That helps resolve some reticence I had over the resolution. I was feeling that it was too quick (drama- and pacing-wise) to go directly to a sexual relationship, but I was ignoring the fact that they already share a great deal of intimacy. That makes the perceived lack courtship time feel much less of a missed beat. (I think there's a triple negative in that last sentence, but hopefully it made sense.)

That or in the hospital in traction, and we're unsure if the blissful state she's in is afterglow or morphine. x_x
I really do hope the best for them.

I just want to say the number of new members here in the past couple of days is very impressive.

Apparently, there was a lot of emotional investment in this storyline. :)
