The First Glimpse (an original short story)
I unexpectedly woke up in the middle of the night. It was quite strange for me because I am what you call a "heavy sleeper". Not even the loudest noise nor the most obvious tap would wake me.
Facing the window beside my bed, I saw the bright moon peeking in. Slowly rising on my feet, I embraced myself as I closed in. I opened my almost transparent curtain as well as the glass window behind it. When I did, I felt the cool breeze pass through my skin. Tightening my embrace, I look at the bright moon in an unusually starless sky. It was so bright and it felt much closer than it actually was. As I was appreciating the moon's beauty that night, my brain was squeezing itself... almost helpless in finding the answer as to why I woke up.
Me waking up in the middle of the night, the unusual starless sky and the moon so magically bright... the scenery seemed perfect but I felt different. "What is going on?" I thought to myself.
Tired from thinking, I decided to give up. I closed my room's window and turned around to a surprising sight. Astonished, dumbfounded, call it whatever you want to call it. It was the first time I got a glimpse of a heavy sleeper on the bed. Yes, I was on it!

Love lots, @tegoshei
First of all, I love this story and I espcially love "my brain was squeezing itself." Answers:
3 & 4. The character was having an out of body experience and was able to see her own body on the bed. Maybe she died in her sleep. Maybe her heart stopped beating for a short time but was put back into her body so she wouldn't die.
This has happened to me.
