- pretty much everything by the sounds of it, by that laugh, and John doesn't even remember half of what he was thinking. His first reaction is embarrassed anger, but then Ryan's just guiding his hands into the right positions. Patient. Gentle. No expectations to be met here, no levels of readiness; he just has to be willing and Ryan will make up for the rest.
It's still unsettling, hard to trust because there must be a catch, but John lets his hands be guided. Curls his fingers lightly into the hair at the back of Ryan's neck, just the barest hint of a grip for now. Uncertainty flickers anew in his eyes when Ryan obviously tries to lead him into straddling his lap, but he shifts forward just as willingly and settles there. Slowly, as an experiment, he starts to slide the hand on Ryan's waist up and down his side.
And then it's his turn to kiss, anchored more solidly and with some idea of what he's doing. Just as he thought about earlier, he's the first to brush his tongue along Ryan's lower lip, nudging lightly before taking it between his own lips and sucking it against his teeth; no bite, just the suggestion that it could happen.
He knows how to kiss. What's the problem here? He can do this.]
