Archie could hear the echo of sounds - vague sounds, from very far away. They were coming gradually nearer, though. And he could feel something soft underneath his hands. He pressed down against it as everything slowly shifted into place. He willed his eyes to open and then regretted it. It was bright. Much, much too bright.
He tried to lift his hand to shield his eyes, but found he couldn't lift it. He settled for blinking several times. It was still too bright. Where was he? He tried to think back to the last thing he remembered - Horatio had been there. But where had that been? He turned his head with great effort and opened his eyes again. Yes. Horatio was still here. he closed his eyes, smiling slightly.
"Horatio," he tried to say, but it came out slurred and almost incoherent.
