A few things to consider: - If you're eager to write the "good stuff" where your characters are kissing, go ahead and write it out of sequence. Get it out of your system. Now you can go back and create the "building up to it" part. - Your characters can acknowledge that they are attracted to one another but that it's not the right time, for whatever your obstacle reasons are. That's not platonic, but it's not full-on snogging either. - Think about your own platonic (non-romantic) friendships. Practice writing those scenes. Describe the last time you hung out with one or more of your friends to whom you are not attracted. Write about how it feels and what you did. Use that as a template to write about Eric and Abigail not being attracted to one another.
