She takes a step back, covering her mouth, realizing that... yeah, she just exposed herself pretty big time just now and she doesn't even know how to begin to explain it to him. Nor does she even want to lie. Maybe she just needs to compel him except that she promised Steve she would never do that and the idea of compelling Poe makes her a little sick.
