I needs fic help!

Okay, so I have a Question.

Right now, I'm writing a little story(TS, of course) called Oh, Crap, I'm in Love With You! (title may change, since I think it's sort of long).  As it stands now, Blair knows that there's something that feels weird about his relationship with Jim.  He sort of slowly comes closer and closer to realizing what it is, and one night blurts out that he loves Jim, hence the title. (though it's not worded exactly that way).  Luckily, Jim loves him back, so Much Love Ensues.  But now my muse is kinda wanting Blair to agonize a bit, which doesn't fit with how quickly things happen here.  So should I give in to the muse and give Blair a little angst?  I  do love my Blair!angst....

Any suggestions?  Should I change it, or just let it be, and stop messing with it? Tell me what to do?  Help me?!

Well, in my opinion *cough* a story needs some sort of tension. If the story is 'Blair blurts I love you and hot lovin' ensues' - well, there's nothing wrong with that. *g* But if the muse wants 'angst' and 'longer', you could experiment a bit. If it doesn't fit in the finished story you can always put that bit aside in a snippets file for somewhere else that it might fit later.

hmmmm....I'm not sure what to do. The muse almost always wants angst, I'm not sure I quite trust her. It *was* shaping up nicely (in my humble opinion) into a sweet little story, with some reflection and acceptance and such...sometimes I worry that all the angst that I put into my stories gets repetitive. Ugh with the second-guessing myself. *g*
