"heyy," i said to my boyfriend when the call connected.
"hey, what's up?"
"nothing, just miss you," i said, flipping over to lay on my stomach.
"i miss you too. this shit is driving me insane."
"i know, me too. but, it's so the virus doesn't spread."
"i don't give a fuck, i want to see you."
"me too. maybe we'll be able to soon."
"i hope that's true."

"i think i'm gonna have to go soon baby. my mom is cooking dinner and she says it's almost done."
"i don't want you to leave. i like looking at you."
"um, why?"
"you just look super delicious right now," i said. a dark blush broke out upon his cheeks. my mouth dropped into an o.
"did i just make you blush?"
"no."
"i got the hard ass, mattia polibio to blush? i'm so honored," i mocked.
"shut up before i come and choke you."
"i mean..."
"alright, bet. the first thing i'm doing when we get out of quarantine is choking you. maybe some other shit, we'll see how you act."
