I’m in the ‘in-between’ place. I’ve heard of this state of being before, but I’ve never experienced it. It’s idly calm here. I feel like I’m floating on a cloud. I don’t want to leave. It’s the most comfortable I've ever been.
But then, I hear Shane’s voice, and he is the only thing that I would swim through this head fog to get to. I come to, but an instinct tells me not to open my eyes yet. One second, everything is muted, but then it feels like someone takes cotton balls out of my ears because suddenly, I can hear everything at once. The sensation is almost painful. I can tell that Shane is holding me because I recognize the feeling of his arms around me. He’s shouting.
