Your Girlfriend Calls Me Daddy-Chapter 78 - 79 | How to Wake Up Your Boyfriend (An Inquiry)
The alarm sang through the dark bedroom at 4:15 AM, bright and cheerful and completely ignorant of what Cheon Hae-Won had done last night.
Wake up, get up, get out there!
She groaned, face buried against something warm and solid that definitely was not her pillow. Her entire body ached in unfamiliar places. Good aches. The kind that came from being thoroughly used by someone who knew exactly what they were doing.
The alarm kept singing.
Cheon cracked one eye open and discovered that the warm thing beneath her cheek was Rome D’Angelo’s bare chest. Her leg was thrown over his hip, her arm draped across his stomach, and absolutely nothing separated their skin.
They were naked.
Both of them.
The memories rushed back in a flood of heat and sensation. His mouth on her. His hands everywhere. The way he’d made her fall apart multiple times. The shower. The second round against the tile. Falling asleep wrapped around him like he was the only solid thing in the world.
Her face burned hot enough to set the sheets on fire.
She’d had sex. With Rome. The school delinquent. The boy everyone whispered about. The one with the incubus ability that made her body do things she’d never thought possible. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
And she’d stayed the night.
In his bed.
Still naked.
The alarm continued its relentless cheerfulness from somewhere on the floor where her bag had ended up.
Rome didn’t stir. His chest rose and fell with deep, steady breathing. One arm was still wrapped around her waist even in sleep, holding her close like he was afraid she’d disappear.
She should feel mortified. Ashamed. Like she’d betrayed every principle she’d built her life around.
Instead, warmth flooded through her chest as she looked at his sleeping face. His white hair fell across his forehead, softening the sharp angles of his features. His mismatched eyes were closed, hidden behind long lashes she’d never noticed before. His mouth, the same one that had done unspeakable things to her last night, was relaxed and peaceful.
He looked younger like this. Less like the arrogant playboy who strutted through school challenging authority at every turn. More like just a boy who’d held her close and promised to keep choosing her.
The alarm kept singing.
Cheon carefully extracted herself from Rome’s embrace and rolled off the bed, her legs immediately protesting the movement. Everything from her hips down felt like it had been put through a workout she hadn’t trained for.
Worth it, though.
She crawled across the floor, grabbing her phone from where it had fallen near her discarded bag. The screen showed 4:17 AM. She silenced the alarm and sat back on her heels, staring at Rome’s sleeping form.
They had training at six. She went every single day without fail, maintaining her schedule with the same rigor she applied to everything else in her life.
Rome had never gone once.
As his... what was she now? Girlfriend? Was that the correct term for whatever arrangement they had? Mera was his girlfriend. Cheon had signed a contract and spent the night in his bed. That made her something, but girlfriend felt presumptuous.
Either way, as someone who cared about his success she should probably make sure he actually attended the training sessions.
But how did one wake up a boy you’d just slept with?
Cheon had exactly zero experience with this situation.
She pulled up her phone’s browser and typed: how to wake up your boyfriend in the morning
A forum thread popped up immediately, full of suggestions from people who apparently had more practice at this than she did.
User StarGazer92: I wake mine up with kisses! My Essentia is connected to emotions so gentle affection first thing in the morning helps regulate both our energy levels. Plus it’s sweet.
Kisses. That sounded romantic, at least in theory. But Cheon’s face burned just thinking about initiating that kind of contact. Last night had been different. Rome had been in control, guiding her through everything. The idea of being the one to start something made her stomach flip.
User TechSupport: Just poke them until they wake up. Works every time.
That sounded clinical and thoroughly unsexy. Not that Cheon was trying to be sexy. This was just about getting Rome to training on time. A professional courtesy between classmates who happened to have had sex the night before.
Multiple times.
She scrolled further down.
User MorningDew: My boyfriend is always hard in the morning so I usually take care of that before anything else lol. Nothing says good morning like getting some breakfast in bed if you know what I mean. He loves waking up to my mouth on his dick but I save that for special occasions or when he really deserves it.
Cheon’s entire face ignited.
That was extremely improper.
Also, her eyes immediately tracked to Rome’s body beneath the dark comforter, where a very obvious tent had formed near his hips.
Oh.
Oh no.
That was his... his thing. His morning arousal. Which apparently was a normal biological response for men but seeing it in person made everything feel exponentially more real and overwhelming.
She could not do what that forum user suggested. Absolutely not. That would be far too forward. Too intimate. Too much like something Mera would do with casual confidence that Cheon absolutely did not possess.
She closed the forum and took a deep breath.
Kisses it was, then. The most frequently mentioned method. The safest option. The one that wouldn’t require her to address the situation happening beneath Rome’s comforter.
Cheon stood on shaky legs and approached the bed. Rome hadn’t moved at all, still sprawled across the mattress like he owned every inch of it. Which he did, technically, since this was his apartment.
She climbed back onto the bed carefully, trying not to jostle him awake before she was ready. Her knees sank into the mattress on either side of his hips as she straddled his stomach, sitting carefully on the firm muscle there.
His skin was warm against hers. The contact sent a shiver through her body that had nothing to do with temperature.
This was insane. She was naked, sitting on top of a naked boy, about to wake him up with a kiss like they were in some romance novel.
Cheon Hae-Won did not do things like this.
Except apparently she did now, because she was already leaning forward, bracing her hands on either side of Rome’s head.
His face was right there beneath hers. Those sharp cheekbones. That mouth that had ruined her for anyone else. The white hair she wanted to run her fingers through.
She hesitated, her heart pounding so hard she was certain it would wake him before her kiss did.
But she’d come this far. Crossed so many lines already. What was one more?
Cheon lowered her head and pressed her lips gently against Rome’s.
