He has the decency to look a little sheepish, raising a hand to rub at the back of his neck for a few seconds.
He had two options - make something up, say he meant a massage or something, and back down off the idea altogether, or suck it up ( pun not intended ) and tell Holden what he really meant.
He hesitated a little too long for option one to really be an option. Oh well. So he let out a breath and met Holden's eyes with an almost apologetic look. At least he knew he was mangling this.
"Somethin' specific. Figured - look -- I thought you could probably use a blow job." It sounded crass and it made a heat rise to his cheeks, but god damn it, he was in it, now. "That an orgasm or two might take the edge off. That's what I meant." See? He could be blunt. Sometimes.
