A Click in the Dark

Darkness surrounded me, but vibrations traveled through the soft folds beneath my frame. A faint static hum stirred my core. I shifted my long arm, feeling the fabric fibers catch beneath my fingers. Beside me lay a smooth, rectangular plastic remote. I extended my hand, touching its firm edge. It moved slightly, letting out a sharp click against the fabric. I froze instantly, head tilted, letting a deep rumble hum in my throat as I listened intently to the silence settling back around the blanket.
