Vera’s foot stopped maybe an inch before crushing me to nothingness. She turned around to see Lena standing in the door looking at her shocked. Vera looked at me and seemed to struggle. Her foot shivered above me and now I wasn’t able to look away anymore. Nervously I awaited her decision while the scent of Vera’s feet invaded my nostrils. She then put down the feet next to me and frowned.

“Why did you come back for him sweetheart… He caused nothing more than pain in your life”, Vera asked her still shocked daughter. Lena didn’t know what to answer but she quickly went over to me and picked me up from the floor. She had saved me from certain death after all I’ve put her through. My body was still shaking from the incident but I felt the strong need to thank Lena deeply. And so I did but she didn’t even seem to notice it as she thought about how to explain her behaviour to her mom.

“You were about to kill him… I know you would’ve done this for my sake but it still is wrong! And especially in a degrading way like this”, Lena said and this reminded me why I’ve once fallen in love with her. She was a really moral-orientated person full of love and helpfulness. Now that I was shrunken in her hands my former feelings for her returned and nebulised my mind. Vera looked unbelievingly at her daughter. She had always been confused by her sudden eruptions of morality in certain moments.

“Fine you want to forget about all he has done, I won’t. What do you want to do with him?”

“Don’t know that yet but I won’t stomp him like an insect…”

“You better pay attention I don’t meet him shrunken again or I will enjoy squishing him slowly under my foot”

Vera’s words sent shivers down my spine. There was no doubt she was serious about this. I’ve never felt so unimportant and shiftless before. I needed my ex-girlfriends help to not get squished by my ex-girlfriends mother. That whole situation totally freaked me out. Lena looked at her mother and shook her head sadly. She then turned around with me still in her hand and quickly ran upstairs to her room. On arrival she laid me onto a cushion on her bed and sat down next to me. We watched each other for a good deal of time before she would say anything.

“You want to your family don’t you?” She finally broke the silence. I was about to answer her question as I heard angry steps coming towards her room. I knew that it would eb her mother and that the dispute would continue now since I’ve seen the two of them acting like this a lot of times before. Vera rushed into her daughters room and Lena quickly took a piece of clothing from a pile on the ground and threw it over me. It happened so fast that I didn’t even see what kind of clothing it was but I understood that she simply wanted to hide me from her mother. As expected the dispute arose anew and I heard them yelling at each other for at least half an hour. I won’t write down the whole dialogue here now since it can be brought down to a stereotypical mother-daughter conflict about who knows better about what’s best for Lena. In the meantime I tried to figure out what piece of clothing I was hid under. It didn’t take that long since it had a noticeable smell of Lena’s privates and therefor had to be a worn panty.

I felt kind of embarrassed as I had realised this but I could tell that Lena hadn’t thought about this since she had to react quickly. Well after all this hide-out didn’t work out so well and Vera quickly found out that I would be under the panty on her head-cushion which is definitely a strange place for a piece of clothing like that. Vera ordered her to put it away and reveal myself and Lena obeyed. I blushed as they both looked at me as I appeared under her panty. Vera still looked at me with disgust in her eyes and then started to tell Lena about my fetish. There was nothing I could do against it so I just sat down and let things go their way. After a while Lena started to look at me unbelievingly and I asked myself whether she still would consider bringing me to my family afterwards.

“He deserves to live at our feet until he is stomped like the insect he is. He even wished this to happen”, Vera stated and I couldn’t even object since she was right with this. Even if at this seize I’d prefer it not to happen.

“There’s a reason he shrunk down and ended up here Lena sweetheart and after all you might’ve been right about it being your decision. But think this through and choose wisely”, Vera continued, gave her daughter a short hug and vanished from her room afterwards with a last hostile glance in my direction. Lena had become quiet as she sat next to me and watched me as I sat naked on her cushion. Now she finally knew why I had broken up with her and I wondered whether this would now satisfy her or make her mad.

“So you’ve been into this already when we first met?” She finally asked.

“Yes and actually a lot longer”, I answered truthfully. I watched her as she slowly moved her legs onto the bed too until she was completely on it, sitting with her bent legs into my direction. I couldn’t prevent looking at her feet which had been beautiful always. She wore pink socks in which I could see her wriggling her toes. As I looked up again I knew she had realised that I’ve been watching her feet.

“Even now Ethan?” She asked and I felt ashamed. She had just saved me from another foot and here I was already being fascinated by feet again. She slowly moved her foot forward into my direction until I stood right in front of her toes.

Out of a reflex I touched the fabric of her sock which was warm and soft. Without the menace of sudden death my fetish pretty fast regained control of my mind. Lena seemed to realise this and let out a sigh as she thought about her mom being right about me. Even if I knew that I had to be careful now I just couldn’t help but going even closer to her foot until nearly my whole body touched the fabric of her sock. I could smell the scent of it slightly and even If I didn’t really like it I couldn’t stop wanting to smell it. I must’ve looked so pathetic at this moment especially for someone like Lena who obviously was overstrained by this.

“Your small body must be so fragile… And still you are attracted to my foot which would be able to squish you in an instant and in a way no human should die…” She said in a rather sad voice. I looked up at her and realised that my behaviour seemed to have a quite negative impact on my potential future.

“I’m not sure whether you really still are a human being Ethan… I think my mother is right you wanted this to happen… You wanted to be an insect”

“Lena… I…”, I started but suddenly struggled to use my rhetorical skills. A tear rolled over Lena’s face and I felt how I was getting overstrained too. How could I possibly explain my feelings to her who could never fully understand them?

“But it seems to be the only way to get your full attention even if it’s only for a short time. So let’s try it together one last time “, she continued. What does she mean by that? And before I could think of the answer myself the foot I was still touching suddenly moved and buried me under it. I was pressed into the fabric of her sock and within no time the menace of sudden death returned and my mind started racing again. I struggled to free myself as Lena pressed me into the mattress with more and more pressure. She then suddenly stopped and lifted her foot from me. She seemed astonished that I was still alive and stood up. I saw how she fetched adhesive tape from her table and tried to yell at her but my voice collapsed. She grabbed me from the bed and I saw how she lifted one leg into the air. She then taped me to her foot face forward.

“I’m sorry for this Ethan… but at least we separate now with things cleared”, she stated. She couldn’t hear my muffled voice as I cried for her to not do this. I felt how her foot descended and then was pressed into her sock as she had taken her first step.

The impact was heavy and I felt my legs already giving in but actually I would survive a lot of following steps. The smell of her foot grew stronger and the fabric of her sock was stuck in my mouth. The pain grew and after maybe ten steps I couldn’t feel my legs anymore. I heard that she was walking downstairs to her mom again and could hear most of their conversation. I somehow managed to not pass out even after my arms started to become numb. I couldn’t see anything of my body since my face was buried in her sock but I guessed that a good deal of it would be flattened by now. The pain was immense and I’ve nearly given up on life when after nearly two hours the adhesive-tape suddenly resolved itself from Lena’s foot and gave me free. I dropped onto the floor without Lena noticing it. I opened my eyes and checked my body which indeed looked crippled and flattened. My left leg basically didn’t exist anymore and was bleeding heavily while the other one was just quite distorted. My arms looked pretty okay but were still numb. I felt weak due to the loss of blood but nevertheless hope returned to my mind that maybe somehow I would manage to get home. This hope was irrational and I knew that but my body supplied me with a lot of serotonin. I managed to roll over onto my back and checked my environment for opportunities.

My hope quickly faded as I saw Vera watching me as I crawled on the floor. There was a wide smile on her face as she stood up and approached me.

“I’m so glad my daughter made the right decision. I’ll take over from here Ethan don’t worry”, she said and raised the same barefoot over me once again. Only this time Lena wouldn’t come back for me.

“I’ve promised something Ethan…”, she continued and slowly descended her foot onto me. She settled it on my legs with her toes over my head and then slowly began to scrunch my body by rolling her ball of foot over my torso with extreme pressure. I watched in terror as my body became squished and eventually I cried out in pain until she crushed my face with her big toe. The last thing I sensed was the smell of Vera’s foot. Would it be over forever now?

No, my mind stated as I felt that I was lying in a bed. That wasn’t a dream…
