Michael and Alex have never had a problem with intense passion in their relationship — it's always been the communication that holds them back. That's what makes this scene work so well: It starts with a very honest, sweet conversation establishing that they're in it for the long haul this time. It's only then that it moves on to one very romantic kiss (and, a little later, a glimpse of one very steamy moment on the couch!).
