Jay wakes before Bob. He lies there, comforted by Silent Bob�s presence, his bulk. His just being there.

There have been horrible times when Jay�s had a nightmare, or just woke up. And Bob�s not there. Jay hates this, because it 
means he has to get out of bed and search the apartment,  cursing the entire time.

Usually he�ll find Silent Bob watching TV. So Jay will grab a blanket and drape it over Bob and then curl up with him on 
the couch.

There are times, though, when Jay can�t find Bob in the apartment. Those are the times that hurt Jay. His partner doesn�t 
think enough of him to tell him where he�s going.

So Jay sits up all night until he returns, mindlessly flipping through the channels, blanket wrapped around his shoulders. 
He doesn�t let himself doze off. He�s too angry for that.

And when Silent Bob returns, he always ALWAYS chooses that time to live up to his goddamn name. Jay swears that next time, 
he�ll follow to see where he goes and why it�s such a big motherfucking secret.

There�s laughter in Bob�s eyes as he hears this. A man has to have his secrets.
