Turning the knob

When you do everything leading up to sex but not the actual deed itself - like turning the knob of a door but not ever actually opening it.

Girl 1: So I spent the weekend over at this one's guy's house this weekend.
Girl 2: Did you guys hook up?
Girl 1: Almost, but not quite. More of just turning the knob, if you know what I mean.
