What is Easy and What is Right

I walk into my hotel room silently. Chester is still asleep on the couch. I couldn't help but stand there for a moment and just look at him. It was hard not to giggle seeing his glasses slipping off his nose, no shirt, messy hair and dry slobber on the side of his mouth.
I shake my head with a smile and kneel down in front of the dresser in the master bedroom. Was I really leaving? Was I leaving Nate? Was I bringing Chester along with me? Was I finally quitting this pointless mission? Yes, I was.
I cram all of my clothes inside my suitcase while all of his clothes still remained in a mess in the bottom droor.

I look at my watch. It was 10:30. I better go wake him up. I think to myself getting up off the floor.

I sit at the end of the couch and run my hand through Chester's hair.
"Chaz," I whisper softly. "honey get up its time to go."
His eyes open slowly and he looks around confused.

Like I always do, I toss a pair of pants at him as he sits up rubbing the sleep outta his eyes.

"Go get packed." I tell giving Chester a quick peck on the cheek.
He nodded, confused and made his way into the bedroom.
I followed him in there. "I know you've only been here a day but we should really be getting home." I coo rubbing his bare back softly.
Chester nods placing another shirt in the duffle bag. "I know." Thankfully he was a bit more awake now.

"Man, I feel really bad for just leaving like that." I say sitting next to Chester in the cockpit.
"Jinx, you said so yourself we should really be getting home." He mumbles looking at me.
"I know... Nate almost knows to." I whisper.
"What are you talking about?" Chester raises an eyebrow.
"Your name just so happened to come outta my mouth. Its just ended up being a mess."
"I'm sorry sweetie." He grabs my hand for a moment.
"Thank you. I'ma take a nap you don't mind do you?" I try to put on an innocent face.
"Yeah. You look tired." He tells me.
"I'll take the ship over later." I say placing a pillow against my window.
I couldn't help but notice Chester's head starting bobbing from side to side and kept blinking making his eyes widen.
"Chaz, put it on auto pilot. You sleep. It knows our destination." I say leaning on his shoulder.
Chester nods and wraps his arms around my waist. "Kay."

Before I know it we're asleep.

'Til Later
