Sometimes she just liked to hold his hand, and rest the back of it against her cheek. Like right then. "You won't hurt me. I trust you. Things were just...weird before. It'll be fine. We've done this plenty of times and nothing bad has happened."
Sherry moved toward the bed, dragging Jake with her. "And it is what I want."

"W-wait, we did?" Had they actually? How come he couldn't remember? T-that meant he had nothing to be afraid of and no reason to not go through with it. Besides, he did want to make her happy, and if such a simple thing (even if not to him) could make her happy and prove his love for her,, then that alone should be motivation enough. Besides, if he didn't do it, he might think he didn't love her and that wasn't true. He loved her so much and just wanted to prove it. "O-ok then."
Letting Sherry drag him, he leaned in... and kissed her.

The kiss was unexpected, but not unwelcomed. She returned it even, with warmth and love and gratitude.
"Mm," she smiled. "Of course, silly. Don't tell me you've forgotten all the times I curled up next to you to sleep." It was a joke, but she was kinda serious about it. Jake's memory....was a valid concern of hers. Sherry squeezed his hand. He...seemed unsure about it still. "I highly doubt you'll wake up mad at me again, don't worry."

...oh. She must have... misunderstood him. And it seemed like she wasn't pressing the issue. Would brining it up make her angry? Would offering to do it now just make her think it was to appease her? He didn't want that to be the case, so he gave a weak smile, and nodded.
Sleep and cuddles... sounded nice.

It was not an issue Sherry was going to push. He'd already expressed hesitation and asked for time.
So, when she climbed onto the bed and indicated that he should settle down with her, she did so fully intending to sleep. It would be nice to cuddle and let the day fade away. "I like it when you're close."
