A Tiny Clink

Everything was still. Then... my nose twitched. Just a little. A warm hand held me steady against the dark, patterned blanket. I paused, taking in the soft light. Slowly, very slowly, I lifted my right paw and gently tapped the cool, golden squirrel charm resting on my chest. *Clink.* It swung slightly, catching the soft room glow. I can move. It is very quiet here... and quite safe.
