She kind of sits there for a moment longer though, before she lifts the pillow from her face and -- with a bit more hesitation -- slips it behind her head. She's just so apologetic when she looks at him, but she's really trying to smile through it.

"I think you're doing great." She gives it some more though. That probably wasn't the smoothest thing to say, but it's true. Even if he's awkward and unsure... maybe she is too. Maybe that makes it okay. Their mutual inexperience just kind of cancels out.

She can be okay with that.

Shifting closer, she holds out her arms, beckoning for any kind of physical contact again. "Okay then. You and me together, we'll go all the way!"
