There are couples in movies and tv that on paper make no sense. However, with chemistry and great acting, those couples end up gaining a devoted fanbase as well as some great stories. As a result, those couples usually end up being an important part of any film or show.
Example: Clarke and Lexa on the 100. They were leaders of rival groups, and Lexa even betrayed Clarke at one point, leaving her people to basically die. However, the writers knew what they had, and the fans loved them, so they kept them together until the end. If the actress playing Lexa didn't leave for another job, they would probably still be together.
