For what seemed to be the fifth time that week, Blair had spent all night in his office trying to finish his last assignment for that term. No matter how hard he tried he just couldn't see the end of it. 150 typed pages for his term paper and still a long way to go. Blair was having trouble keeping his eyes open he, was so tried.

Looking at the clock, he noticed that it was four in the morning and he knew that if he tried to drive back to the loft he'd end up having an accident; however, if he slept at the office, he knew Jim would be worried about him. The choice was taken out of his hands by a knock at the door.

"Hey Buddy, don't you think it's time to come home?" Jim Ellison asked as he entered his roommates's office.

"Jim, you didn't have to come here this early in the morning, you should be sleeping. You've got work in the morning, and everyone knows a tried Sentinel is a cranky sentinel!"

"Well, if a certain Guide would come home when he said he was you, wouldn't have a cranky sentinel, would you?" Jim replied with a smile. "Time to come home, Guide, so that your cranky Sentinel can get some sleep and not worry about you having an accident."

"Right now, Jim, all I want to do is curl up and sleep, but I'm too tried even to do that."

So Jim helped the tired sleepy Guide to his truck and by the time they had returned to the loft, Blair was sound asleep. It was up to Jim to carry him up to the loft and place him into bed like the good Sentinel he was protecting and looking after his tried groggy Guide.
