Oh. Mako is so startled by his kiss that she drops her clipboard - and while she would usually pick it up, the feeling of Raleigh's mouth on hers, the magic of this moment, the fact that he's kissing her puts all things on hold.
She only hesitates for a moment before she's leaning into the kiss, parting her lips and tiptoeing to deepen it, to respond because she doesn't care and she adores him and finally. She can dimly hear wolf whistles and cheers but it's all miles and miles away because all that matters right now is the warmth of him, of the fulfillment of something she's wanted for the longest time. (The fact that Stacker Pentecost might want to kill Raleigh for besmirching his little girl's honour is also something out of considerations).
And she's totally not crying because she knows exactly what this means to him. Totally not. ]
