[When she goes for his jaw, Raleigh tips his head to the side, making it easier for her to get at whatever she wants there. Even as his face flushes more and how is he blushing about the fact that he's shy.]
I-- [What, Raleigh are you going to try and deny it? He's just not good with people when it comes down to it.]
I don't really have a lot more experience here than you.
[ Mako pulls back a little to meet his eyes, surprised. That's new; not that she'd expected him to be sleeping around with everyone he sees, but he's startlingly handsome, charming when he wants to be, and a great catch all around.
And with that came the experience, didn't it? ]
Really? [ And he's blushing; she can see the tips of his ears turn red. ]
[Yeah, it's-- true. He looks away from her gaze about two seconds after their eyes connect and shrugs, trying to act cool about it and like a big, tough guy but he's really not.]
Yeah, I uh-- just haven't. Didn't want to after Yancy, didn't have time for a lot of relationships before that.
[And he's a relationship kind of guy. Pure and simple.]
[ He's endearing, and it should be an impossibility, that his admission makes her even fonder of him, because she's tipping his face up with two fingers, making their gazes re-connect.
She doesn't want big, tough guys. She just wants Raleigh. She smiles, warm and loving and she adores him so. It inspires something in her, the fact that he doesn't have much more experience than she has. ]
[Her smile is infectious, making him beam back at her and he leans in, not to kiss her but to give her a little eskimo kiss instead, circling her nose with his.]

Sounds like a plan.
