A Soft Sway

A quiet warmth settled in my chest. Slowly, I shifted my weight, feeling the knit fabric of my sweater bunch gently around me. My tail stirred with a soft, heavy sway behind me. Right beside my ear, a tiny white star hovered in the quiet air. I tilted my head, waiting patiently, then leaned a fraction closer. The tip of my ear brushed its cool, gentle light, making it bob ever so slightly. It felt pleasant. I breathed out softly and stood still, quite content to simply be here.
