Author's note: Due to how busy my life got, I was unable to continue this for a very long time. I am, however, picking it back up because I can't bear to leave something like this unfinished.

I woke up with a headache. I wasn't sure what was going on, but there were bright lights that hurt my eyes, so I instantly closed them after being temporarily blinded. Whatever I was lying down on felt somewhat uncomfortable, and not exactly what my bed felt like. I felt some sheets over me, but they felt nothing like my blankets.
