Looking at Max, Jennifer switched out the lamp on the nightstand and turned down her bed. Jennifer sat in one of the armless side chairs for a while and peered out a crack in the curtains. The highway noise was an endless whine and the neon lights of the motel flashed orange and yellow. She clutched the teddy bear in her fingers so tightly her knuckles ached. Resting her chin on top of it's head, her eyes felt heavy. Jennifer pulled her feet onto the chair and rested her cheek on her knees, the small toy tucked safely under her chin.<br/><br/>Drifting off to sleep, lulled by the drone of the traffic, Jennifer had one last thought that she should get up and crawl into bed. But, she was so comfy, warm and clean that she couldn't help but crave one more minute. Her hair was still wrapped up in a towel and she really should dry it. Yeah, in a minute, she thought. The last thing she remembered was hearing herself softly snoring.<br/><br/>When she woke up, she was in her bed, covered to the nose and,oh no she had gone to bed with wet hair, It would be wild. Reaching up she discovered the towel was gone but to her dismay, her hair, though damp, was now in a braid. She sat bolt upright in the bed. There was Max, in his bed, all cozy and asleep, under the blanket.<br/><br/>Jennifer's head felt fuzzy and she felt around in the bed to find the teddy bear.<br/>"Come here, Hero. We might just have time for a morning nap."
