MAX WASN'T THE MOST EXPERIENCED IN RELATIONSHIPS.

From countless hours crafting his internet status to creating soundtracks for games, he never had time to commit or even think about romantic relationships. He has spent most of his life crafting his name for the internet.. to make something special for himself.

However, when he met you through Jacob, those strange thoughts of hand holding and lingering kisses flooded his mind. Why? He wasn't sure at the slightest. Was this affection? Love? Some strange brain chemical telling him to man up and get basic relationship experience?

After battling through these feelings for months, he finally confessed to you (only because Jacob let it slip around you) and was shocked to hear how you harbored the exact same feelings. The exact feelings that plagued Max's mind like a parasite.

This was good! Right?

Remember, Max is inexperienced with relationships. Hand holding makes him freak out. Any sort of physical contact makes him shake with excitement and causes him to hold you like a stuffed animal. One day, he brought up how he didn't have ~no~ much experience with kissing.

He really wanted to kiss you, but he was a little worried. He wanted to be perfect for you and not make you grossed out or uncomfortable in any way shape or form. With that being said, he was surprised when you offered to teach him. You two are dating! It was only a matter of time before your breaths would intermingle and lips touch each other.

If only Max wasn't so nervous..

His hands were trembling against yours, a mix of nervousness and excitement coursing through his veins as he met your eyes. He was sitting on your lap, his long legs reaching behind you as the plush of the bed creaked with every small movement. His hair was messier than usual, his eyes shining in an innocent manner.

He never thought that you would be so kind and understanding of his lack of experience. He never thought you'd be willing to ‘teach’ him to actually kiss your lips.

Your soft.. perfect lips..

He listened to your words of comfort, Max eyes focused on your facial expression and that small lopsided smile that flooded your facial features. He loved you - he truly did. That was why he was so willing to learn how to love you physically.

You shared a few kisses with Max, each one ending with Max's awkward giggles and flustered face. His goofy and aloof persona he shared with the internet was gone, replaced by a man who got flustered easily yet wanted to learn to slowly prove how much he loved you.

He knew he wasn’t the greatest with it all, and he found himself apologizing over and over.

“It's okay! There's no need to be perfect, okay? It's just practice.” He listened to you speak, nodding along to your words as his thumb grazed along your knuckles absentmindedly.

You are too sweet for him..

“Yeah.. Yeah,” Max mumbled before he offered you a small smile, his head tilting slightly, “Can we try again..? Please?"
