A Gentle Flutter

I... I think I just blinked. The grey cloth underneath felt cool and soft against my back. Hesitantly, I tried moving my fingers, and to my surprise, they actually curled. Beside my hip, a crisp white tag rustled when I shifted. I carefully reached out with my hand and gave the corner of the tag a soft nudge, listening to its tiny, crinkling whisper. My chest felt fluttery, then completely warm. I am really awake, right here.
