This is a very small snapshot. I could conceivably read affection, companionship, or possibly even love into the image, but definitely not romance.

Too small shot, sorry. And the way the small dog was flashed on the eye... Don't use direct flash for animal photos, it hurts their eyes.

Comment by digitalknight:
dark upper half of photo, dog red-eye, bright reflection from on-board flash on the leather - very small size compared with the 640 pixel allowed - make this a snapshot in my book.

Suggestions:

Drape a sheet over the couch
wait for daylight and open the curtains to let nice diffuse light in
shoot from another 18 inches to 3 feet up

Hope you find this helpful, as was intended.

this shot really could have benefited from being a larger size.

I'm sorry but this is horrible. It was sized incorrectly, OOF, and framed poorly. 1

Size really does matter on dpc. You cannot expect voters to be able to jusge the merits of a photo they can barely see. Try for 640pxl at the longest dimension next time.

Seem to be a cute couple of dogs, but image is too small to see much, please see the tutorial "Using Photoshop to Prepare Photos for DPC Challenges." More depth-of-field is needed to get Bijou in focus, and blanket is distracting.
