While Charity seemed to think Brayden was her best kiss of the night, she said on Us Weekly's "Here for the Right Reasons" podcast that "next in line would've probably been Xavier."
Charity gushed of the 27-year-old biomedical scientist from Carrboro, NC, and their first kiss, "Me and Xavier's chemistry was, like, truly undeniable."
Charity also kissed John Buresh hand Aaron Bryant at the first cocktail party of her season.
"I had no kissing gameplan," Charity said on the podcast. "But I was trying not to kiss everyone, that was the thing."
Charity shared how there was "no way to go about the kissing" thing, adding, "But I kind of had to take the lead on some of them. Some of the guys were actually way more nervous than I thought they'd be, which was really cute."
"I was like, 'I'm only doing this the one time; the next time, you have to take the reins," she noted.
Xavier shared on The Bachelorette's premiere how he's interested in researching autoimmune diseases because of his beloved mother's disease. Xavier also plays the ukulele and came across like a well-rounded bachelor.
Xavier told Charity that he was looking for a beautiful, honest and genuine partner. He said he has no trouble being vulnerable and expressing himself in any given moment.
"Xavier, Xavier, Xavier definitely takes me by surprise. He's one I've got to keep my eyes on. That kiss was almost too good to be true, like, too good -- too good," Charity gushed in a confessional.

"Me and my brother, obviously, are super close, and having him there Night 1 was so helpful. He clearly got to see a lot that I did not," Charity said with a laugh.
"But I think he really did remind me in that moment -- in our conversation, obviously it wasn't all shown -- but he did just reassure me that all the guys, or most of the guys, were truly there for me and they were really excited about me being the Bachelorette and this opportunity for them to really get to know me."
Charity concluded, "So that made me feel good in the moment despite coming off of, like, 'Oh, Brayden was really vocal around the house with the guys about the kiss.'"
Charity eliminated Ahmad "Khalid" Hassan, Christopher "Chris" Spell, Joe Menzia, Nicholas "Nic" Barber, Peter Cappio, and Taylor Pegg.
"I feel confident that my husband is inside of that room," Charity teased after meeting her Season 20 suitors.
