Hmm, my pillow is so soft..... And really warm..... But why I do hear it snoring? Wait, did I fell asleep on Dad again? No, that's not right..... He said he had to go work..... So, who's here? I thought as I feel myself waking up. I don't even remember when I fell asleep. Wasn't I with someone?
My eyes fluttered open and the first thing I see was a black shirt tightly clinging onto someone's sturdy chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm. A small lump of fear rises inside of me, thinking that some stranger came inside my room and probably did something in my sleep, until I look up to find Antonio's handsome face. He's sleeping? Oh my god, Antonio is sleeping!
I tried my best to hold back a squeal of excitement as I witness this once in a lifetime chance of watching Antonio sleep. Oh god, does that make me a creep? I mean, I heard that people look younger in their sleep and from the way Antonio is sleeping, he looks like he's my age instead of a grown man. But how come he's asleep in the first place? And weren't we watching a movie? Oh man, I fell asleep on him! That's so embarrassing!
There was a loud sound of the door slamming open and close, making me flinch. Fudge! What time is it?! I thought frantically while I look for my phone in my front pocket. I take it out and bring it close to my face, turning it on where the bright light flashes the time. It's 7:56?! But it was like 3:30 when Antonio came! Then the movie was an hour and 20 long so what's that? Like 4:40? So we napped for less than three hours?!
"Cassiel? I'm home! You hungry for something?" Dad's voice shouts. Oh man, he's home early!
I didn't reply since Antonio is still sleeping. Though, I better wake him up before Dad gets in my room. I place my hand on Antonio's chest and began shaking him gently. "Antonio. Wake up." I call softly.
Antonio lets out a soft groan and turns over with his arm landing on my back. He mumbles something but I couldn't hear what he said while he pulls me closer to him. I felt him nuzzle into my neck, his breathing hitting at a sensitive part of it which made my cheeks heat up. This is bad. This is really bad! I thought and shook his chest harder.
"Antonio, wake up. You need to wake up." I state as he continues to tickle my neck and indirectly turning me on just by doing that. I do not want Dad to walk in here with Antonio arousing me in his sleep.
Luckily, all of my shaking paid off because Antonio finally wakes up from his deep nap. He pulls away from my neck and rubs his eyes, probably to get rid of any crust from them, before opening them. "Morning, Cassiel....." He mumbles in a husky voice which made him sound sexier.
"Hey..... Um, y-you need to get up......" I greet shyly. His right eyebrow arches higher than the left and gives me a confused look.
"Why?" Antonio asks.
"Be-because my dad is here and he'll come-" I start to warn him before I hear my door open.
"Cassiel, are you in- what's going on?" Dad asks. I had to squirm my way around just so I could face my dad since Antonio has me too close to him. Dad's expression was confused which means I have time to explain before he gets mad.
"I-I can explain!" I quickly shout as I feel my cheeks heating up again.
"Ok, when you two are done, come downstairs and explain. Don't take too long. And no sex. I'll know if you do that." Dad replies calmly before he leaves my room and closes the door.
"That turned out well. Your father wasn't all that mad about me being on your bed." Antonio speaks up right in my ear, his lips brushing on it. Oh god, does he even know what he's doing to me?
"O-oh he will b-b-be..... If we d-don't go right n-now and explain...." I stutter like an idiot due to my body's reaction to Antonio's subtle but very effective teases.
