The request takes just enough fear out of him- he shows Alfie, first off, by chasing that thumb by just a centimeter. He lets it go in favor of speaking, feeling incredibly grateful for the question, the consideration, for Alfie.
"I've never done it before," he has to admit, and that's frightening. But right now, behind this door, the rest of the fear he feels is good. An edge, not something to paralyze him. "I want it."
He thinks, perhaps, that Alfie needs him to say it in order to be able to go on and enjoy this, so he reaches up, curls one bruised hand around Alfie's hips, and says, "Please."
