Let me see if I've got this right: You've got two characters who are telling you what to do (or what not to do). And you think that's a problem? Writing believable characters who want to write the story for you is a goal that many would-be writers never achieve. Congratulations! My suggestion would be to write the story anyway. _Listen to your characters._ Do what they tell you to do. Your plot is 95% written? Well, maybe not so much if you do this. The book may not be a romance when you're done. Perhaps it will be about a missed opportunity. But wasting strong characters would be a terrible thing. (This doesn't preclude you from writing another book that _is_ a romance.)
