Tyler woke up to a soft flicker of sunlight pressing through the hotel curtains.
It was already afternoon.
The quietness of the room and the cool air, coupled with how light his body felt made him feel like he was floating.
The ache in his arms, the tightness in his back, and even the burn behind his eyes was gone.
Though not completely, but enough to let him know that his crash into sleep the night before had done what it was supposed to do.
He sat on the edge of the bed for a moment, letting his mind adjust. His body felt light but his mind hadn't fully caught up.
With a deep breath, he stood and moved into his routine. He brushed and took a long shower, then changed into a clean aef5of clothes.
By the time he was slipping into his shirt, he kind of felt like a different man.
It was the kind of feeling you get when you wake up on the right side of the bed and if things are working out just fine for you.
