QueenNormaJean marching on! is right... it's a rollercoaster sometimes, really.

Some people can also act very moronic on attraction while trying to avoid the love they actually crave as they're burnt children concerning it (Laura), or fear it's being ripped from them again (Vince).

So not always Happy Ever After... or only after a certain struggle, which might make it less -provoking for you to write... and more fulfilling for me when those two finally stop being immature morons and act... adult. *wagging eyebrows*
