I think Harry didn't let Bob speak because he didn't want to have to hear it from Bob's lips that Bob wasn't interested. If he was telling himself, then it's easier, because he's been telling himself for years that Bob's not interested. But having to sit down and hear Bob say it would be an exercise in fresh torture because it's admitting that it came out in the open.
Our boy Harry, he is a case of self-denial.
I'm glad that Bob's assumption about the kiss made sense to you, and that you felt it was in-character. :D
