Completely agree.
Ahhh Tom Paris aka Robert Mc Neil,(he is super sexy, especially in first 4 seasons). And what to say about Captain Ransom aka John Savage. 
About Seven, the character is interesting but her catsuit never seduced me. I prefer when she wears Starfleet uniform like in Relativity.

Seven can seduce me in whatever clothing she likes
same goes for B'Elanna
Anyway, enough talk of my Seven and B'Elanna crushes I think

She looks great in a Starfleet uniform. And I like her more when she wear her hair down.
How would they meet though? Mezoti is back in the Delta quadrant. Did Naomi grow up and suddenly feel that she needed to go find her for some reason?
In my plot, the ships is attacked by aliens who beam poison over. Due to a hull breach, Mezoti and Naomi are in a weapons locker, the twins are in Sickbay and Icheb somewhere else. With the crew dead, the computer reports that Naomi is in command (ECH did not happen) and so she decides to complete the mission and get the ship back home. Along the way, she has feelings towards Mezoti and ends up destroying Unimatrix 01, taking on the Dominion and rescuing Saghi (a canon character from DS9).
Oh, the Enterprise arrives to lend assistance where Riker tries to usurp Naomi's lawful command and so she has him arrested and tried at a GCM
I can provide links if you so wish
Actually, I go into detail with them communicating the situation with Starfleet Command and some years do indeed get skipped, but some are just mentioned...

The Long Way Home
The Hearing
"The Long Way Home" is a sort of mini-reboot with a remarkable surprise and a shock ending
"The Hearing" features canon characters at a Board of Enquiry to establish the events of the end of "The Long Way Home"
Well, let us be totally honest, Star Trek: Voyager and love stories, it is not that!The script writers often failed in this domain (only the coupling Torres/Paris worked with at the end, the birth of their daughter, Miral).
However, sometimes, they managed to make exceptions. It's regrettable that they didn't go to the end (Janeway/Krashyk) or that they decided to break couples (Janeway/Jaffen; Neelix Kes).
Janeway/Jaffen -> it was sudden but very romantic*.
Janeway/Krashyk -> for the sexual tension so present throughout their exchanges!
Neelix/Kes -> I like them together, though the age gap.
And to finish, I trully think that Janeway / Tom Paris could have worked but "Threshold" wasted this eventuality but well, I bet that after awhile, Janeway would have eventually rejected him, not because of the age gap or the rank but rather because Tom, on the pretext of wanting to protect his girlfriend at all costs, would have prevented her from assuring her captaincy as she would have wanted.
I understand and I respect Kate Mulgrew's will not to want to associate her character to a crew member or someone coming from the outside of Voyager during the time spent in Delta Quadrant but, it would have been nice to see Janeway finding the happiness with somebody (especially not with Chakotay) at the very end of the series.
I agree with and value all your likes, save one. Neelix and Kes getting validation is something I see as perceptive by those who can appreciate everything they gave to each other that had been lacking up until then in their lives. I think that Janeway and Kashyk definitely merits inclusion in the poll, as this was a mature relationship between two intellectual and passionate equals (I know some would say pathological as well!!)
Sorry though, I just don't see a Tom/Janeway relationship at all. I never got a presentiment of any romantic vibe between the two of them. I think her appreciation of his maturation during the journey was quite telling of her regard for him. It was far more like a person that she saw the potential for career and personal growth, and saw a value in strongly supporting, despite the ruins of his backstory. Hence her severely expressed disappointment in Thirty Days. Not a son, but someone meriting one more chance.
Neelix and Kes is probably my second favourite couple simply because the affection between the two seemed really genuine. That's really the only real downside I have about Kes leaving as that was a nice relationship that I would've liked to have seen through to the end.
The problems I had with Janeway's romances was the characters she had the romantic moments with I knew they were never going to stay that long which is why I'm not that keen on her romances really, wouldn't have minded her getting together with Chakotay personally in the end but obviously that never happened. Also, I personally disagree about a romance between Tom and Kathryn I don't think that would've worked at all personally speaking.
I do agree that it would've been nice for Janeway to get some happiness at the end with somebody.
Anyhow that's just me Ghislaine
Exactly so as to the truthfulness of the emotions between Neelix and Kes, which made the former's early jealousy, though thoroughly understandable if one looks with some degree of perceptiveness and probity at his past, truly unfortunate as her dedication to him was unquestioned. I think though that in either possibility of Kes's continued presence, it would have been inevitable that her need to express her growth in so many realms, would have likely insured that the relationship would have ended at some point.
I do think that Tuvok did find a fascination in her intuition and ability to see beyond the surface of things, even more so as a hologram. But given that being her provenance, I don't believe he would have ever formed such an attachment. Not to say that he didn't have one with holo T'Pel, but that's another story.
I have to admit some quizzicism that fan fiction connections can go so far afield, but you are to be highly commended in taking what your imagination clearly compels you to contemplate through so thoughtfully, and then successfully elaborate about with this sort of dedication.

Thank you very much - which stories or moments did you like the best...?
Tom and B'Elanna was my favorite couple.
I agree. They had the most realistic relationship in any Trek series or film. I remember being rather happy when they finally got together --- AND the show runners didn't break them up for some stupid reason a few episodes later.
And in the category "Which Voyager Romances Did You Hate? I' d say undoubtedly that the palm returns in Chakotay / Seven! The whole thing was just creepy. 
Besides, I have a question about this romance:
IF there are some Starfleet regulations which prohibit fraternization with a subordinate officer (although that didn’t stop Picard!), why Chakotay/Seven happened (I know-I know, except the necessity to give to Beltran & his character a bone to eat away!) and why it would be recognized more "acceptable" (even if it represents only 6,9% in the poll above) than Janway/Chakotay (even if this couple isn't even quoted in the same poll!).
-> I mean, a great majority of those who were against this romance - including me -, were essentially because Chakotay and Seven hardly knew each other outside their respective responsibilities within Voyager. Plus, their romance seemed hasty and even desperate to find somebody (it woud be similar to the discouraged Harry Kim's quest to find a feminine partner during 7 years! ) ... . But what about the concept of hierarchy which seems bothered nobody?! 
I mean, Janeway was Chakotay's superior and Chakotay was himself, Seven's superior (ok she had no official status - rank or Starfleet uniform - but nevertheless, she officiated as a senior officer, taking direct orders from Capitain Janeway, Chakotay & Tukov (respectively First Offcer & Second Officer). -> Chakotay couldn't ignore this rule - even if it was a Starfleet's one (worst, in one of episodes from S1, it seemed that he was even against any form of fraternization between people after to have caught 2 officers kissing in the lift and it was Janeway who had to soften angles by explaining that the cohabitation in the middle of nowhere could facilitate the romances between people. Later, when he repeatedly tried to seduce her, Janeway had to remind him that it wasn't right for them to be together because she was his superior).
And of course, not to mention AGAIN that Seven was very innocent and inexperienced when it came to romance and that, Chakotay could not ignore it either - you can admire and profoundly respect someone for what she/he is and/or what she/he achieved without making advances or accepting them, particularly if this person is your subordinate - and you know this could be an issue, right?! (here this type of behavior, what it belongs to a military or a civil level, would be considered as a morale harassment, even if the both parts are inclined to have an affair. I guess that it's the same thing in the United States... ).
-> I was surprised to notice that neither Janeway or Tuvok said anything as if they didn't know what took place between C/7 (would this latter have forgotten to inform them?! Regulations?)...or maybe, Janeway preferred to close eyes, Voyager had arrived at the end of its journey and the crew was finally going to return home, what was more important for her... But what about Tuvok, the Starfleet and Voyager watchdog?! I am practically sure that he would have made a comment, at least to Chakotay to remind him his obligations as Seven superior offcier and recommending him to wait that the vessel arrived on Earth before officializing the romance...

By seasons 4 and 5, the crew of Voyager should've had more relationships within the crew besides Paris Riker and B'Elanna. I mean living in a world where there's a strong possibility the crew will never return to the Alpha Quadrant, and there's not more pregnancies happening through the series. Preservation of the crew's existence seemed like an interesting topic for an episode, instead of more unwarranted Q and Borg stories.
A reboot of Voyager, why not (even if until now, all the rebooted series made were a disaster!
Not necessarily. The BATTLESTAR GALACTICA reboot was much better than the original. The new PLANET OF THE APES movies are quite good. The ADDAMS FAMILY movies worked, and the HAWAII 5-0 reboot seems to be thriving. HANNIBAL was critically acclaimed and last for at least three seasons. And can we count BATES MOTEL as a semi-reboot of PSYCHO? (The jury is still out on whether DAMIEN is working.)
Granted, there have been some high-profile failures (Hello, BIONIC WOMAN remake), but plenty of original series fail every year, too. I'm not sure reboots have a particularly higher failure rate.
