A slow twitch
Everything was dark and warm. Then my eyelids pulled apart. Slowly. ... A tiny white fuzz was clinging right onto my left lid. It felt stiff against the soft fleece. I blinked once. It didn't fall off. ... I moved my jaw just a sliver. Click. The teeth pressed together, hard and smooth. ... Good. I rested my chin back down into the warm fuzz and stayed still.
