I like that idea, because their adult lives might end up a little parallel with her as a Hunter and him as a lawman. Milliways is where they constantly intersect but with no expectation of anything more until suddenly things change and there is. Yet even so, it's of that comfortable level of oh, we can try this out now.
Since I could see them taking care of each other at various times when they run across each other since that's what you do and the respect and care doesn't go away.
It's just the something more part that gets put away in a box and they're both really good at compartmentalizing their feelings or at least tucking their feelings away if they don't want to think about them.
