As we were driving Luke let out a large sigh. He was obviously trying to slickly tell me something was wrong. I chuckled to myself and shook my head.

"What's wrong kid?" I asked.

"Kid? Did you just call me a baby goat?" Luke asked.

I laughed. "Not quite. What's up?"

Luke shrugged. "I am bored. Don't you have anything in here to do?"

I smiled. "Well sure kid." I looked back at Chewie. "Chewie?"

Chewie's head peeked up immediately.

"Bring out the CD's." I said.

Chewie hopped down from the seat and disappeared underneath Luke's seat, reappearing again dragging out a black binder. Luke stared in astonishment.

"You taught him to do that?" He asked.

I shook my head. "Nah, Chewie here's a veteran aren't ya boy?" I said, scratching behind his ears. "He fought in Iraq. His owner died and he just so happened to be my mother's boyfriend. Chewie was passed on to me and we've been together ever since." I explained.

"So...he's a war dog? Has he grown accustomed to the loud noises?" Luke asked.

I shook my head. "Whenever I shut the back trunk of the truck this guy starts freaking out. I can't ever take him to events with fireworks either. Chewie's a sweet dog. He would never hurt anyone unless they harmed me or someone close to me."

"Am I...close to you?" Luke asked.

I chuckled. "Of course. I feel like I've known you forever." I said.

Luke blushed and looked down at his lap, his dirty blonde hair shielding his eyes. I laughed and pushed his hair out of his eyes.

"Why are you blushing?" I chuckled.

"No ones ever...been a friend as good to me as...you have." He said.

"You didn't have friends in Cairo?" I asked.

"No, I did, but no ones ever...ever-"

Luke was interrupted by the sound of my phone ringing. I held up my finger signaling to give me a moment. The Caller ID read:

Ms. Leia Organa

I groaned under my breath and answered. "What did I tell you about calling me?" I growled.

"Where's my brother?! It's been four days, it should only have taken you two!" She snapped.

"I told you that I would get him to you didn't I?" I said, jeeringly.

"Don't be snarky, laser brain, I want my brother and you'll give him to me now! Where are you?!"

"Texas, my sweet." I said sarcastically.

"You'll bring him straight through New Mexico and Arizona and you will not stop. I asked you to bring him here so I could reunite with him, not so that you could take him through all fifty states of America!" She screamed.
