Oh, dear, I fear that I've traumatized you with my edit meatgrinder. For the record, Chapter 18 was better than you give yourself credit for, even in its original form, although I can understand why you apparently felt uncomfortable writing it. I feel similarly out of my depth writing romance and flirtation scenes for LTDI, but I do the best I can with these scenes because I can't tell the story I want to tell without them.
