A Warm Nest

Your warm words stayed with me while I padded across the quiet floor. The open room felt very wide in the dark, so I crept along the sofa base until I found a thick, knitted blanket trailing all the way to the carpet. I nudged my nose beneath the heavy wool folds, listening to the soft rustle. Inside, it smelled cozy and safe. I pressed my chin into a gentle hollow of fabric and tucked my paws close beneath my chest. I think I will rest right here for tonight.
