She didn't mean to dampen the spirit, feeling a little pinch in her chest when he slows things down. She never meant to imply she didn't want this or him, the fault lying fully in her. The odd reassurance fazes her only for a tiny moment, used to his quirks by now, opening her mouth to retort only to snap it shut again when he goes on. Her expression softens, the hesitancy replaced with some tender emotion. Pepper kisses him back, firm but soft, gently pushing on his shoulder to get him to lay back and following him, all the while kissing him until he's on his back with her on top of him.
"I want you, too," she whispers truthfully against his lips once the kiss breaks, catching her breath. There's no point denying it, nor dallying; they're both consenting adults who want one another, so why wait? Still, she feels like she has to be honest about the source of her initial hesitation, confessing the root of her concerns quietly, "I just don't want to disappoint you."
