It's a screwed to hell, dysfunctional idea that maybe things can work out between them. Even so, it's been a long time coming. Some might even say an attempt at a relationship is well overdue. They'd not be wrong.
There has been a passion simmering just beneath the surface of their relationship for years now. Since they met, actually. A fiery passion, that even after all this time has not burned out.
Maybe they spent more of that time fighting than anything, but there were other emotions there and though previously it was a mutual decision to keep those feelings to themselves, now they have broken free. Unleashed. Free to turn their worlds inside out and upside down. Potentially disastrous.
All the same, the feelings feel so good. They can no longer be denied. And whether things will work out between them or not, one thing is certain. They are in for a bumpy ride and almost definitely, misery.
But then, maybe that's exactly what they need. Humanity thrives on conflict. They thrive on conflict. And misery loves company. It all balances out.
And hell if they're not going to give this thing a go. They owe it to themselves to at least try.
