The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?"

You should be over at You Know, That Thing Where.
we do have a more general Sexy Discretion Shot, though i wonder if this might be common enough to make it its own subtrope
Not Modesty Bedsheet. The sheet isn't being used to cover anything.
This is Sexy Discretion Shot, which covers any instance where the sex occurs just offscreen. The audience is shown just enough to get the point across, excluding the act itself.
^No, that can still occur onscreen.
A sort of discretion shot to imply sexual activity.
A character's hand, and maybe their bare forearm but no more, is shown on top of a sheet on the bed the character is lying on. The hand is palm down with the fingers spread and the character is implied to be lying supine.
As we watch, the hand grabs the sheet in its fingers and squeezes it tight. Then cut away to another scene entirely.
This doesn't seem to be listed at Hand Tropes.
