Lost and Found

I

She chewed her bottom lip as she scrolled on her phone, unaware of her boyfriend's mood getting spoilt by the minute. If they were out on a date, maybe she'd have kept the phone away awhile. But they were home. She didn't see the need to stop scrolling.

"Rose?" Her boyfriend's voice came from in front of her.

"Yes Keith?"

"We never talk anymore now, do we?"

"I thought that's what you wanted?" Rose said, more suggestive than a question.

"Why would I ever want that?" Keith asked.

Instead of answering, Rose sighed, shook her head and kept scrolling. There was something unspoken between the two of them and they both knew what it was. Yes, they never talked like they used to before. Maybe it was the fact that they had grown accustomed to each other. But Rose had other thoughts on the matter.

"It used to be fun before", Keith continued. Again, instead of responding, Rose just gave Keith a blank stare. "I would like to one day be shoved down into bed and have a go at it".

"You want that from me?" Rose asked, raising an eyebrow.

"From you? Nah... you're not, you know..."

Rose shook her head, indicating she didn't know, making Keith sigh.

"Sexy enough", Keith finished.
