How concerned should I be that my partner covered his face today with a pillow during sex? /u/latefave Sex

I am seeing this guy very casually, and we are both in our late 20s/early 30s. We’ve been having a lot of open and honest conversations about remaining exclusive in this “friends with benefits” type relationship we have. We’ve agreed to remain monogamous, but because it’s casual, I’m sensitive to constantly needing to “talk through things” that maybe aren’t so big of a deal..

This morning he was hard and when I went to get on top of him, I wasn’t quite ready, so there was a struggle to start having sex. In this struggle, he lost his erection which was obviously fine (at least I thought?) While I was still on top, he then grabbed a pillow, put it over his face and essentially started grinding/humping/moaning etc to get back into the mood? I was taken aback but still a tad into it because I wanted to have sex.. Once he was hard again, he removed the pillow, got inside of me, and then grabbed the pillow again?? When we were fucking, he was so into it for like the first minute covered by the pillow. Again – i was kind of turned on because he’s hot but started wondering if he was thinking of someone on top of him other than me….After a minute or two the pillow was gone, and he stared at me for the rest of sex. I rode him the entire time, and he came while looking into my eyes so I was like okay…guess I’m still hot lol.

But… it’s been bothering me a little, and I’m wondering if it’s that serious? Is it harmless that he maybe just had to think of something to get him in the mood? Am I overthinking that he potentially went somewhere else? Have yall done something similar, and did it mean anything? I know I’m hot and I know he thinks I’m hot, but maybe in that moment I wasn’t.
