[ Expressing some of those expectations would've been an enormous help in clearing things up for Raleigh. Chuck's offer had been as innocent as it could be given the context, but Raleigh'd believed then that Chuck was giving him some sort of incredibly awkward offer of sex from the get-go; it was hard to see how Chuck hadn't wanted this open as an option.
