Joe is an incurable romantic, right? What if he's been saving himself for when it feels right? He's a passionate man, sure, and he's had urges, but he always thought sex was supposed to be something beautiful you share with the person you love, not some sordid one-off (and maybe not even something you do with yourself, alone?). He's as surprised as anyone that "the person he loves" turns out to be a Christian with (formerly) poor personal hygiene and enough guilt to fill an ocean, but here they are, and Joe's ready to experience what he's been waiting for. Good thing Nicky knows what he's doing.

(Bonus: Joe or Nicky gets a little lost in his head and has a hard time coming because they want to last and make it good?)
