Ji Hu's face scrunched up when she felt someone lightly touching it. She couldn't register what was being told to her, but she knew someone was talking, maybe not to her, but talking nonetheless. Ji Hu turned onto her side, inhaled deeply as her eyes slowly opened. Ji Hu looked straight ahead, seeing Gu Won smiling at her. He was resting his head on his hand, staring at her sleep. Ji Hu looked down at herself, remembering everything that happened yesterday, including sleeping together. She was wearing Gu Won's shirt from yesterday.

She clamped her eyes shut, pretending to be asleep.

Gu Won chuckled. "I know you're awake."

"No, I'm not." she muttered.

"Unless you sleep talk now, you're awake." Gu Won said, pushing some hair behind her ear. "Can't look at me?" Ji Hu shook her head, burying her face into the pillow. "What's wrong?" Gu Won asked.

"When did you wake up?" Ji Hu asked.

"A while ago."

"And you didn't wake me?"

"It's Tuesday, you don't go into work until noon." Ji Hu cursed in her head that Gu Won knew that already. Ji Hu continued to hide her face. "Okay, come on, let me see your face." Ji Hu shook her head. "Ji Hu, come on." She continued to shake her head, a smirk appearing on her face. "Oh?"

Ji Hu started laughing when Gu Won started to tickle her. Ji Hu continued to try and hide her face from Gu Won but, in the end, he was able to get her to stop hiding her face from him. Ji Hu reached behind Gu Won's head, pulling him down. She gave him a quick kiss. "There, you've seen my face." Ji Hu turned over, snuggling up in the comforter. "And you know my schedule. Let me sleep." Ji Hu closed her eyes, only to feel Gu Won wrap his arm around her, pulling her into his chest.

"I'm hungry."

Ji Hu turned her head. "I thought a cup of pour-over coffe was all you needed." Ji Hu said, raising an eyebrow at him.

"I know. Maybe it's because I'm almost human now." Ji Hu felt bad that she was turning Gu Won human because they still didn't know how the tattoo was transferred to her.

Gu Won surprised Ji Hu with the restaurant to have breakfast at. It was the same place that they met. But this time Gu Won didn't book it out. Ji Hu sat on the couch, glancing around at everyone else who was having breakfast that morning. She couldn't drop the smile from her face. "You didn't book the whole place today." Ji Hu commented, sipping on the tea she ordered.

"I realized it might not be a bad idea to eat among humans. With so many of them around, it's nice and lively." Ji Hu couldn't contain her giggle at Gu Won's excitable face. He was looking around at everyone who was socializing and eating.

A waiter came over, almost hesitating. Before he could put the menus, Gu Won ordered for the two of them. "One couple set, please." Ji Hu gave Gu Won a confused look but hid her smile.

"I'm afraid that's only available during Christmas, sir."

Ji Hu took the menu, letting Gu Won have his little argument with the waiter. Ji Hu pointed to something on the menu. "We'll just take two of these, please."

"Yes, ma'am."

Ji Hu shook her head at Gu Won.

"Isn't this discrimination against demons?" Gu Won asked. Ji Hu couldn't stop her laugh. "Why are couple sets only available on Jesus' birthday?"
