** Um, no. Unless we're talking about different people, Winnie is 12 in the books and Jesse is either 15 or 17. Of course, nothing physical happens but {{spoiler|he does propose to her and offer to make her immortal when she's his age so they can be together forever.}} |

** The book was a bit ambiguous as to exactly how romantic things were on Jesse's end. Winnie definitely felt something for him, but it could very well have been a [[Precocious Crush]]. Let's just say that in the book, the two certainly didn't go running through a field and plan to climb the Eiffel Tower together. |

** Inverted in ''[[The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen]]'', in which Mina isn't paired off with Dracula- but she ''still'' left her canonical [[Love Interest]], Jonathan Harker, after he rejected her for being "ruined"... so that [[Alan Moore]] could then put her in a [[May-December Romance]] with Allan Quatermaine. |

*** Which was doubly inverted in the movie, where Mina's husband is dead and she has no affair with Quatermaine. Sawyer flirts with her a bit and she did have an affair with Dorian Grey in the past, but it's implied that her years of living as a vampire have left her unable to really love anyone. |
