wordplay - How long can two words be if they make up a larger word (challenge)



I came up with this little game. Basically we have to write a word using small caps and big caps so that the small caps write a word and the big caps write a word (in their original order), for example:


STRINginG, the words are STRING and gin. ( or STringING with STING and ring)


MoneY, the words are MY and one.


THEoreM, the words are THEM and ore.


The score of each word is the length of the smallest word.


So STRINginG has score $3$, MoneY has score $2$ and THEoreM has score $3$.


However I do not want to accept the cases in which all the big caps are together. So things like BUTTERfly gentleMAN or CARrot are not allowed.


I would appreciate a lot if you could give me examples of words with high scores (the more the merrier), something especially awesome would be if the words could have related meanings. Thank you in advance.
