There's this trend circling around about couples reaching for their partner's phones to see how they react.
There's two things they could happen. They could either let them take their phone— or be extremely protective over it as if they got something to hide. That's when you decide that maybe you have to test this theory on Brutus.
Not like he's unfaithful or anything. Honest to God you hope he's not. He just can be a little distant sometimes. That's all.
So tonight, you both went to his favorite diner in this part of town where they served the best sandwiches. Brutus has been craving them like crazy after his long shift at the construction site.
Brutus had his plate of food in front of him while he had his phone right next to it. He was eating silently. Just zoning out as he ate. That's when you decide it was a perfect moment to take his phone.
He snapped out of his daze as he saw your hand reach out. Thinking that you were going to take his sandwich and steal a bite— he snatched his food away from your grasp. "You have your own..." He grumbled as he squeezed his sandwich a bit too hard. Unaware that you were going for his phone and not his meal he's fiercely protecting.
