Sometimes I want to smack House, because he wants his toys arranged at the right place where *he* can play with them and tear them apart at will. *sigh*
I'm of the opinion that 'romance' actually has very little to do with the entire situation, as twisted and complicated as it is, with respect to Cuddy and House, but House more so. Despite the affection, care, and respect they both share for each other, those other factors--not wanting to be in pain or lonely or miserable--seem to be the driving force behind a lot of their actions this season.
The same goes for Cuddy. She may have bought into the romance plan (and then given up on it, thanks to House), but beyond that there is loneliness and a fear of pain (traits they both share). That was *why* the kiss was not a sexy, hot kiss or a cute, fun kiss but a messy, painful kiss. And if (or probably when) they take a further step? It will be again out of that same desire for company and comfort more than anything else. It will also be a complete disaster. (And I will probably love every bit of it. *facepalm*)
