They're definitely 'cuddling', and he's courting her, but no lock there. The male's tail will be fully curled under the female's, when they're locked.
The side-by-side tails do indicate that he's trying to interest her. I'd give them more time to work on it.
(On the other hand, they may be locking at night while you sleep--they often do, lol).
