Love certainly wasn't part of his plan either. He'd been fairly sure that it would simply complicate things; it would put more people in danger and he never wanted that. However, he has fallen in love with Katniss, regardless of her age or her background. He simply might need a reminder every now and then that she's with him because she loves him, not because she feels obligated to him.
Perhaps not as long as she thinks, but Matt wouldn't ever suggest that Prim's education not come first. Katniss has given up far too much and gone through far too much for that. That's all Matt wants: for Katniss to consider the possibilities that she's got in her life now. She's got a second chance. He wants her to take it.
He's going to try. Matt has never had a death wish. He simply wants to make the city a better place. He wants to make Hell's Kitchen a better place. As for sharing the bed and ceding control, he's okay with that as long as she is. This is all he really wanted when he kept trying to get her to slow down: he wants her to realize how good this can be.
It's good that she didn't always hate it. That would probably give her a lot of issues where sex was concerned and he's glad that she's not dealing with that. He certainly hopes that nothing needs to be faked tonight. Of course, given all his super senses, it'd probably be pretty hard to fake anyway with him. He bites hard enough to leave little marks then covers them with kisses.It's an easy wish for Matt to grant because it's what he wants as well. His tongue tangles with hers and the kiss consumes him as he rocks against her. Mostly he wants her to enjoy this, to want this. Right now, he's not even thinking about slow. He's thinking about the way she feels and how he can't possibly get close enough to her. Her shirt is bunched up around her upper body and he breaks the kiss, his breathing heavy. "Can I?" he asks, his hand sliding to her shirt, asking permission to take her shirt off.
