100 Word Flash Fiction Challenge #22 The Lights Went Out.

Lights
 
The lights had gone out but he couldn’t figure out why.
He felt himself rolling about in the darkness, which was odd in itself, as he didn’t like the dark. He tended at night to stay under his blankets, try to sleep and await the dawn.
He was sure at one stage someone was shaking him but he couldn’t he sure if it was just his imagination or not.
He felt a sense of desperation coming over him. Panic was not far away. He willed himself to wake up.
Suddenly the lights were on. He relaxed. His immediate surrounds familiar.
