Late Night (Will)

Even though the move playing wasn't really his thing, Jay stayed on the channel.  He needed the distraction.  He had told Will that he was going to bed early but not to worry about waking him when he got off shift, but it appeared that it wouldn't matter.  He had had another nightmare and he wasn't going to call Chloe for something like this.  She was most likely asleep by now after she had been out having a girls' night.  One that he knew that she had needed, and he wasn't going to take that away from her or do anything to interrupt her sleep if she had finally gone to bed.  Oh, he'd talk to her later, no doubt about that.  He had learned his lesson about that.  They had finally gotten back together after he had stopped being an idiot and he wasn't going to back track.  However, he also wasn't going to call her away from a night of much needed relaxation.  So yeah, he was stuck here for a while.  Why can't I get these stupid nightmares to stop? he wondered.  It just didn't make any sense.  Okay, yes, he still had some stuff to work through, but that shouldn't be bringing back any nightmares.  Then again, weren't some nightmares caused by stress?  And he had had a lot going on recently, so he supposed that it would make sense.

He then gave himself a mental shake and tried to focus on the movie.  What the hell is this, anyways? he wondered.  From the looks of it, he was thinking something in the science-fiction genre, but he couldn't be sure.  Maybe I should turn it off, he thought to himself.  Yeah, he could shut it off, listen to some music.  Nah..he wasn't in the mood for music.  With a sigh, he grabbed the remote control and started flipping through the channels again.  Maybe he could find something worth watching and forget about the nightmares.  At least....that's what he was hoping.  However, he knew that he wouldn't be able to sleep.  Even when he was a kid, once he was up, he was up.  So yeah, tomorrow was going to suck...
