It’s silly, sexy and I like it

Near the start of lockdown, an ex-colleague texted. We have zero in common except our love of the same football team. He is a tough guy and slightly scary but charming. His texts went from ‘Long time, how are you?’, ‘let’s have drinks’ to general chat then they plummeted into seriously heart-stopping filthy talk. He vanished for two weeks. Then he reappeared, resumed the saucy convo and vanished again. This behaviour would have no appeal in non-lockdown reality but right now, it’s silly, sexy and I like it.
