To serious things (Zoe)
Jesse had taken the advice given to him by the witch... or whatever she really was... to heart. He'd decided he'd had enough with the being tired, and figured that Zoe was also pretty through with it, and so he wasn't going to be tired anymore, unless it was at a time and place where it was okay to be. Falling asleep in the arms of his girl was okay, but falling asleep at her dinner table was not.
It still felt a bit wrong, to let go of that much more of his human origins, but in the end, it seemed that he either do it this way, or stop helping people. Since he didn't think he was ready to stop the latter, there wasn't really any argument left. He finally convinced himself that it didn't make him any less him, it made him a better him. A him that could do all the things that he wanted to do and not be troubled by it. Not have the bad side effects that were causing problems in his personal life.
He was wide awake and waiting for her. He'd cooked a meal in preparation, and this time didn't eat it before she'd shown up. He wasn't dosing on the couch, or gazing glassy eyed at the television. He was in the kitchen, fixing dinner when he heard her key in the door.
