The dimly lit jazz bar was my sanctuary, a place where the world slowed down to the rhythm of a saxophone’s wail. I sat at the corner table, my red hair cascading over the shoulders of my black silk blouse, a glass of pinot noir cradled in my hands. The soft glow of the candle on the table cast a warm hue over my pale skin, and I felt a rare sense of contentment. It had been a long week—work deadlines, ballet rehearsals, and a failed attempt at baking a soufflé that had left my kitchen smelling like burnt dreams. But tonight, I was here to unwind, to let the music wash over me and remind me that life was still beautiful.

That’s when I saw him. Ned. He was leaning against the bar, his dark hair slightly disheveled, his eyes scanning the room with an intensity that made my pulse quicken. I’d met him a few weeks ago at a symphony performance, and we’d been casually dating ever since. He was charming, intelligent, and had this way of making me feel like the most fascinating person in the room. But there was something else about him, something I couldn’t quite put my finger on. A quirk, maybe. Or perhaps it was the way his gaze lingered just a little too long on certain parts of me.

He spotted me and made his way over, his stride confident yet unhurried. “Mary Ellen,” he said, his voice low and smooth, like the bassline of a jazz tune. “You look… stunning.”

I smiled, feeling a flush creep up my neck. “Thank you. You’re not so bad yourself.”

He pulled out the chair across from me and sat down, his eyes flicking to my feet. I was wearing a pair of strappy black heels, the kind that made my legs look endless and my feet delicate, like a dancer’s. I’d always been self-conscious about my feet—they were narrow and long, with high arches and toes that tapered to points. But Ned seemed to appreciate them in a way that made me feel almost… admired.

“Those shoes,” he said, his gaze still fixed on my feet. “They’re… perfect.”

I laughed, a little nervously. “Thanks. They’re comfortable, too, believe it or not.”

He nodded, but his eyes didn’t leave my feet. It was then that I noticed it—the way he was staring at them, not in a creepy way, but with an intensity that made my stomach flutter. It was like he was seeing something I couldn’t.

“Ned,” I said, teasingly. “You’re making me self-conscious. Are you… into feet?”

He looked up, his cheeks flushing slightly. “Caught me,” he said, a grin spreading across his face. “I mean, I’ve never been one to hide it. Feet are… fascinating. Especially yours.”

I raised an eyebrow, both intrigued and amused. “Fascinating, huh? Well, that’s a new one. Most guys don’t notice feet.”

He leaned forward, his elbows on the table. “Most guys are missing out. Feet are… art. They tell a story. Yours, for example—they’re graceful, like a dancer’s. And those shoes… they frame them perfectly.”

I felt a warmth spread through me, a mix of embarrassment and something else—something I couldn’t quite name. “Well, I’ll take that as a compliment, I suppose.”

He laughed, a deep, rumbling sound that made me smile. “You should. Because it’s the truth.”

The conversation flowed easily after that, as it always did with Ned. We talked about music, books, and the absurdity of modern dating. But every now and then, I’d catch him stealing glances at my feet, and each time, my heart would skip a beat. It was strange, the way it made me feel—not uncomfortable, exactly, but aware. Hyperaware.

As the night wore on, the band took a break, and the room fell into a comfortable silence. Ned leaned back in his chair, his eyes meeting mine. “So,” he said, his voice low and deliberate. “I have to ask. Have you ever… given a man a foot job?”

My wine glass paused halfway to my lips. “A foot job?” I repeated, my voice barely above a whisper.

He nodded, his expression serious but not lecherous. “Yeah. I mean, I know it’s a weird question, but… I’ve always been curious. And with your feet… I just… I think it would be incredible.”

I felt my cheeks heat up, but I wasn’t offended. There was something disarmingly honest about Ned, something that made me want to explore this side of him. “I’ve never done it before,” I admitted, setting my glass down. “But… I’m willing to try.”

His eyes lit up, and he leaned forward, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. “Really? You’d do that for me?”

I smiled, feeling a thrill of excitement. “Why not? Life’s too short to not try new things, right?”

He grinned, reaching across the table to take my hand. “You’re amazing, Mary Ellen. Truly.”

The band started playing again, a slow, sultry number that seemed to match the mood perfectly. Ned stood up, offering me his hand. “Dance with me?”

I took his hand, letting him pull me to my feet. As we moved closer together, I felt his eyes drift down to my feet again, and I couldn’t help but laugh. “You’re incorrigible, you know that?”

“Maybe,” he said, his lips brushing against my ear. “But I’m also grateful. For this. For you.”

We danced for what felt like hours, our bodies moving in sync, the music wrapping around us like a warm embrace. But the entire time, I was acutely aware of Ned’s gaze on my feet, and it sent a shiver down my spine.

When the song ended, he led me back to the table, his hand still in mine. “I have an idea,” he said, his voice husky. “Let’s get out of here. I want to show you something.”

I raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Oh? And what’s that?”

He smiled, a slow, wicked smile that made my heart race. “Just trust me.”

I did.

Ned’s apartment was a reflection of him—sleek, modern, and filled with an eclectic mix of art and books. He led me to the couch, gesturing for me to sit down. “Make yourself comfortable,” he said, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

I sat, crossing my legs and smoothing my skirt over my thighs. “So, what’s this all about?”

He knelt in front of me, his hands resting on my knees. “I want to worship your feet,” he said, his voice steady and sincere. “If you’ll let me.”

My breath caught in my throat. Worship? The word sent a jolt of desire through me, something primal and unspoken. “Okay,” I whispered, my voice barely audible.

He nodded, his hands sliding down to my ankles. Slowly, reverently, he began to unstrap my heels, his fingers brushing against my skin in a way that made me shiver. When the shoes were off, he placed them gently on the floor, his gaze never leaving my feet.

“They’re even more beautiful than I imagined,” he murmured, his breath warm against my skin.

I felt a rush of heat, my cheeks flushing as he took one of my feet in his hands, cradling it like a precious treasure. His thumbs brushed over the arch, his touch firm yet gentle, and I let out a soft sigh.

“Does that feel good?” he asked, his voice low and husky.

“Yes,” I whispered, my eyes fluttering closed.

He smiled, his lips brushing against the top of my foot. “Good.”

His mouth moved down, his tongue tracing the delicate bones of my ankle, his lips pressing soft kisses along the length of my foot. I felt a tingle spread through me, a sensation I’d never experienced before. It was intimate, yes, but it was also… exhilarating.

“Ned,” I breathed, my hands clutching the edges of the couch.

“Shh,” he murmured, his mouth moving to my other foot. “Just relax. Let me take care of you.”

His tongue was warm and wet, sliding between my toes, sucking gently on each one. I felt a moan escape my lips, my body arching slightly as pleasure coiled low in my belly. His hands were firm, massaging my arches, his thumbs pressing into the tender spots that made me gasp.

“You like that, don’t you?” he whispered, his breath hot against my skin.

“Yes,” I admitted, my voice shaky. “I do.”

He smiled, his lips brushing against the sole of my foot. “Good. Because I’ve been dreaming about this.”

His mouth moved back up, his tongue tracing the curve of my ankle, his lips pressing kisses along the sensitive skin. I felt my breath quicken, my body tensing as the pleasure built. It was strange, how something so simple could feel so… intoxicating.

“Ned,” I whispered, my hands tangling in his hair. “I—”

“Shh,” he said again, his voice firm but gentle. “Let me show you.”

He stood up, his eyes locking with mine. “Stand up for me, Mary Ellen.”

I did, my legs slightly shaky as I rose to my feet. Ned stepped back, his gaze raking over me, his expression hungry. “You’re so beautiful,” he murmured, reaching out to trace the line of my jaw with his thumb.

I felt a rush of desire, my body aching for him. “Ned,” I breathed, my hands resting on his chest.

He smiled, his hands moving to my waist. “Trust me,” he said, his voice low and commanding.

I nodded, my heart pounding as he guided me to the center of the room. “Lift your foot,” he instructed, his voice steady.

I did, resting it on the edge of the coffee table, my leg slightly bent. Ned stepped closer, his hands sliding down to my calves, his thumbs brushing against the sensitive skin behind my knees.

“Now the other one,” he said, his voice a whisper.

I lifted my other foot, placing it on the table beside the first. I was now standing with my legs spread, my feet bare and vulnerable, and Ned was kneeling in front of me, his eyes devouring me.

“Perfect,” he murmured, his hands moving to my ankles. “Now, wrap your feet around me.”

My breath caught as I realized what he meant. I shifted my weight, my feet sliding off the table as I brought them together, my legs still spread. Ned reached down, unbuckling his belt, his eyes never leaving mine.

“Do you know how long I’ve wanted this?” he asked, his voice hoarse.

I shook my head, my heart racing as he unzipped his pants, his cock springing free. It was thick and hard, the head glistening with pre-cum, and I felt a rush of desire at the sight of it.

“Wrap your feet around me,” he repeated, his voice urgent.

I did, my toes curling around his shaft, my heels pressing against his thighs. Ned groaned, his hands gripping my hips as he leaned forward, his mouth brushing against my ear.

“Fuck, Mary Ellen,” he whispered. “You feel incredible.”

I moaned, my head falling back as he began to move, his hips thrusting gently at first, then harder, his cock sliding between my feet, my toes tightening around him. It was strange, the sensation—the warmth of his skin, the hardness of his shaft, the way his muscles flexed with each thrust.

“Ned,” I breathed, my hands clutching his shoulders.

“Yes,” he growled, his voice thick with desire. “Say my name again.”

“Ned,” I moaned, my body arching as he picked up the pace, his hips snapping forward, his cock sliding between my feet with a wet, slick sound.

“Fuck, you’re so tight,” he groaned, his hands gripping my ass, pulling me closer. “So fucking tight.”

I felt myself teetering on the edge, my body trembling as pleasure built and built. Ned’s breath was hot against my neck, his thrusts becoming more urgent, more desperate.

“I’m close,” he panted, his voice strained. “Tell me to cum.”

“Cum,” I whispered, my voice barely audible. “Cum on my feet, Ned.”

He groaned, his body tensing as he thrust one last time, his cock pulsing between my feet, his cum spilling over my skin, hot and thick. I moaned, my head falling back as he came, his hands gripping my hips, his body shuddering with release.

When he finally pulled away, my feet were slick with his cum, the scent of sex heavy in the air. Ned collapsed onto the couch, his chest heaving, his eyes never leaving me.

“Fuck,” he whispered, a smile spreading across his face. “That was… incredible.”

I laughed, a little breathless, as I stepped out of his reach, my feet leaving wet prints on the floor. “I’ll take that as a compliment.”

He grinned, reaching out to pull me onto the couch beside him. “It was more than a compliment, Mary Ellen. It was… perfect.”

I leaned into him, my head resting on his shoulder, the warmth of his body wrapping around me like a blanket. “I’m glad you enjoyed it,” I murmured, my fingers tracing patterns on his chest.

He kissed the top of my head, his arms tightening around me. “I did. And I have a feeling this is just the beginning.”

I smiled, a sense of contentment washing over me. “I think you might be right.”

As the jazz music from the bar downstairs drifted up through the open window, I felt a rare sense of peace. Ned’s foot fetish had opened a door to a new kind of intimacy, one that was raw, unapologetic, and utterly exhilarating. And as I lay in his arms, the scent of sex and satisfaction lingering in the air, I knew one thing for certain: this was just the first chapter of our story.
