Yeah, they're both young and pretty stupid and insecure. Raleigh at least has the open personality that goes with his pretty face, making it easy for people to like him. Chuck....well he's got Max, and that's enough for him. Why should Raleigh be afraid of rejection?

He watches greedily as Raleigh's torso is revealed. Part of Chuck wants to stay in control, to climb on top of Raleigh and direct things. There's a louder part of him that's remembering the feel of Raleigh shoving him against the wall and really, really wants to feel that again. He hooks his fingers into his belt loops and pulls him along while he lays back on the bed, eyes fever-bright.
