 The storiy you are about to read is fully ficticious and not suggested to
happen in real time!

   It was a cool damp night in the town, following a really long work day.
All Jed wanted was to get something warm to eat, pick up some necessities,
get a hot shower and relax in the warmth of his flat.  Jed had just worked
a 14 hour day at boring job.  His desk loaded with paperwork from several
other employees who had taken off for various reasons.  He hated the job,
but loved the paychecks and was a loyal employee; missing very few days in
the multiple years he had been with the firm.

   Jed was an average man, at least in his vision of life.  He had had an
average childhood, though slightly deprived.  He was a bit of a workaholic
and that left little time for a social life of any kind.  He excelled in
school and had landed a good job with a legal firm not wanting to go the
full lawyer route.

   Here he was, almost 27 years of age; he was in decent shape, at 5'11"
And an easy 175 pounds, he looked like he had always been in physicals
training.  His deep blue eyes and soft brown hair and mustache fit nicely
on a strong oval face.  Most of the ladies would have found him attractive,
except he rarely did social events.  There was one other quirk though, Jed
really didn't pay that much attention to girls his age, and he liked them
younger and had a major interest in their legs and feet.  A good set of
legs attached to real fine set of ankles and feet would have him following
their every step.

   Jed's eyes also appreciated the younger girls as he really felt that all
the older ones were alike.  They would all seem to have established the
"bitch" mode and attitudes towards males.  These older ones would try to
use their wiles to control the men around them.  The younger ones were
still dependant on winning the guys' approval.  They weren't so sure of
their wiles yet, and had that flare of innocence.  The young ones still
wanted to impress and wanted to learn the perfect molding material.

   Jed walked down the street not far from his office and as always there
were many people hustling along the street.  He knew that not too far there
were several nice little restaurants with many types of foods available. 
As always the menu on the street was just as diverse with all types of
people, though his attention was on the female part of that group.  So Jed
walked the several blocks to find a nice quiet place to eat as it was later
and past the usual rush times.

   As he neared a quaint little place that served American/Italian cuisine,
he slowed his pace and watched carefully as he passed several alleys.  He
had always been highly aware of the alleys and the potential to be a target
if someone of unscrupulous means were hiding there.  He had seen anything
from street people to small time dealers in these alleys over time, and
minded his business as long as it didn't affect him directly.  However,
tonight he would see something quite different in an alley only a couple of
blocks from his destination.

   As Jed passed this one alley he saw a smaller form in a sitting position
crying and shaking along the building not too far in.  Normally he would
dismiss just another street bum, but the size of this one and the crying
instead of begging really caught his attention.  He had slowed his walking
to almost a stop, and walked slightly by, but had to stop and think a
moment.  His curiosity was driving him mad, so he turned and went back to
the corner of the building.  He peaked around the edge to get a better
look. He could hear the sobbing and saw that this was no ordinary street
person; it was a much younger female and she seemed destitute and out of
place.

   Jed stood there unnoticed for the most part and peaked at her for a few
minutes while deciding what he should do.  He thought, perhaps that he
should walk away and stay uninvolved and yet he felt compelled to go to her
and see what her plight was.  As his mind told him to move along, his
curiosity and his heart were saying to help.  So after the moments of
debating with his self, he turned the corner.  His footsteps were close
enough that the little person shuddered and began to get up to run.  Just
as she rose to her feet Jed stopped and began to speak softly, "are you
okay there?" She stopped and turned slightly to see the stranger, after
following his body to his face, she looked into his eyes.  She thought to
herself, his eyes did not look threatening, his demeanor didn't indicate
aggressiveness, and perhaps she could talk to him.

   Her first words were: "who are you, what do you want?" Then she waited
his response.  Jed explained he had heard her crying and noticed she looked
out of place and cold.  He told her he felt compelled to stop and offer to
help her.  She relaxed a little now and told him she was not from there and
felt all alone and deserted and was a bit scared.  He couldn't help but
notice her damp clothes and hair, indicating she had been there a while and
how sad she looked.  He told her his name was Jed and asked her for her
name also.

   She responded with, "my name is Megan; I guess it's nice to meet you."
She had stopped crying for the moment and looked straight into his face as
she said this.  Jed couldn't help but flash a slight smile as he looked at
her and felt his heart melt.  Megan told him she had been left behind by a
guy she had run away with.  The guy had taken off with her purse and her
small package of clothing leaving her with nothing.  She had paced the
streets today trying to think of what to do and where to go.  She knew that
if she went to the authorities that they would send her back and she
couldn't do that.  She knew that if she tried to beg without knowing the
area that they would likely pick her up for panhandling, so she had not
tried that.  She did know that she needed to find some money and a warm
place but all this seemed out of reach.  So after the weather started to
get damp she had finally collapsed where he found her and began to cry from
desperation.

   Jed, wasn't sure what to say or do, he had so many questions, but was
not sure what to ask.  His first thought and question was why did the boy
throw her out?  Megan was quick to answer that he had gotten this far and
he had told her to put out or get out.  She figured she would call his
bluff and as she got out he took off leaving her standing there in shock.
He looked sadly at her and told her that the boy wasn't very nice to do
that.  She explained that by the time she ended up here, she had realized
she was in a strange town, and had no one to protect her from all these
strange people she had passed.  So she ran into this location and in her
final desperate thoughts, she began to cry.  He felt so sorry for her; he
didn't know where to begin.  Jed looked at her again all the way from her
damp hair to her scantly sandaled toes.  His eyes looked heavy and almost
watery; Megan was not unaware of this and regained her full composure.  She
knew now that he wasn't the type to harm her or at least didn't seem to be
threatening to her being.

   Jed still had quite a few questions, but thought he should get her
somewhere away from this alley as he noticed her still shaking from the
chill of the air.  He offered to take her to get something drier to wear
and then perhaps to eat.  Megan didn't know what to say, she knew she had
to go away from there and she was really hungry.  There she stood now, in
her damp light blue blouse, her tight short skirt and those sad looking
sandals.  She looked a site to Jed and yet she really looked sexy at the
same time.  He looked at her one more time and waited for her answer.

   Megan thought about it a little more and then told him that she would be
so thankful to him if he did help her.  So he offered his hand and she took
it in a handshake and they came out of the alley together.  Jed looked down
the street to see what kind of shops were close by and chose a nice little
Shoppe that catered to ladies.  They walked down the half block to the
store and went in.  Right away Megan saw a clearance rack of youthful
female clothing and she was drawn right to it.  Jed just followed behind
looking quite like her older brother.  In the full lighting he could see
just how young she looked in detail, and began to think to himself, what he
was getting his self into.

   She immediately picked out a couple of little outfits and asked the lady
in the store where the dressing room was.  The lady led her to a side area
and there were several little changing rooms there.  Jed didn't move right
away and Megan said "well aren't you going to come along and tell me what
you think?" He was a little reluctant at first, telling her he wasn't
exactly a fashion consultant and they laughed a little as she took his hand
and said "come on."

   Well, Jed was standing outside the little room with basically a half
door in the middle, when he herd the zipper of the skirt go down, and he
saw the skirt drop below the door on the floor.  As his eyes went down with
the skirt and she kicked it off he noticed she had removed the sandals.  He
could see the nicely shape calves and her soft looking ankles ending in the
perfect size feet with the cutest toes.  He looked away trying to take his
mind off those thoughts.  He heard her pull the blouse off and throw it
over the top of the door and thought to himself, on the other side of that
little door stood an almost naked little lady.  Then he scolded himself for
having that thought as well.

   Megan didn't even put the sandals back on as she dressed in the first
outfit, a tight tube top and yet another very short skirt, only this one
was denim.  Suddenly the door swung open and out she walked and pranced
around turning like a runway model.  "Well, how do you like this one?" she
said as she pranced in front of him.  Jed's eyes lit up as he looked at the
fine shape in front of him.  She had obviously tried to dry her hair a bit
as her hair looked a little frizzed.  She had probably used one of her
other clothing parts to do this or something in the stall.  He didn't
answer right away, and she inquired again.  He finally took a breath and
said it looked pretty fine to him.  So she went back in and peeled out of
that outfit and put on the tight short shorts and another tube top that
accentuated her nicely budding breasts.  As she came out this time Jed
couldn't help but shake his head.  She commented, "What" an he just said
that she tended to pick all the same outfits.  She asked if he didn't like
it, and he replied of course he did.  Then he explained that she had just
put on two very tight outfits and that the one she was replacing was also
tight and shook his head again.  They had a little chuckle together and she
said "well, which one do you like." He didn't know and said that they were
cheap enough off the clearance rack that she should just get both.  She
flashed a beautiful smile and promised she'd repay him as soon as she knew
how.  Jed had to smirk a little on that thought but said nothing.

   They went back to the front with her wearing the short shorts and light
tube and asked if the lady could bag the older wet clothes separately for
her.  The lady gladly offered to do that and Jed paid with a nice tip. 
Megan couldn't have been happier, tow new outfits and she had borrowed his
comb and gotten the hair to look a little better yet still a little frizzy.
This frizzy look actually looked hot on this young thing.  He still hadn't
asked her how old she really was, and the multitude of other questions he
had.

   He then asked her if she like American or Italian food and explained
where he was heading when he found her.  She said since he was paying and
she was not in a position to tell him where to eat, whatever he wanted was
fine.  So they headed for that nice little restaurant and Jed was happy as
he entered and the host recognized him and asked if he preferred his usual
spot.  They were led to a nice booth in the back where he usually sat.  The
lighting was slightly dim and the booth was out of the way setting an
almost romantic ambiance.  Jed had always liked this spot since he could
dine quietly alone and look over the passing ladies going to and from the
restrooms.  Megan giggled a little as they were seated and looked at Jed
for the first time, really looking him over.  Here was this nice man whom
had just saved her from who knew what, bought her some nice outfits and was
about to but her a meal.  She thought that he looked pretty good from where
she was standing.  He could've been geeky or looked like a really old
person; she would have still considered him a hero.  Yet he was nicely
built and fair mannered and actually looked a little hot for an older guy.

   Now that they were seated and the menus left for them to look at, Jed
was thinking he needed to find out more about her.  He told her to order
anything she wanted and that they could talk while the order was being
made. Once the waiter took their order, she came back with the drinks and
told them it would be about 20 minutes or so for the entrees.  Now was the
time, He asked Megan if she was willing to talk about who she was and how
she came to be there beyond the drop off from her supposed friend.  She
bulked a little and asked what he wanted to know first.  He was curious why
she left what she would call home, how old she was, what she was thinking
she would do when she left, and what she will do now.

   Megan explained that "home" was never a good place for her or she would
never have left it.  She was 16, and in some places she would've been
legal, and that she thought that the boy really liked her and would look
after her till she established herself.  Finally she had no clue as to what
she would do now; she hadn't planned on being alone like this.  He looked
at her a little skeptical and asked her if she thought she may need to
rethink the whole plan, if she had a plan.  The 16 worried him a little as
he was a full adult and she was technically a runaway at this point.  Megan
really hadn't thought that far ahead like any other teen she was just
totally overwhelmed and began to tear up again.

   Jed could see the heavy eyes and said she didn't have to talk anymore if
it was that uncomfortable for her, or she could tell him everything and
perhaps feel better after unloading.  That choice was hers though; he did
not intend to pry any further.  He told her they would just enjoy the
dinner and decide what she could do for tonight.  Megan had not even
thought about that yet since her mind was filled with feelings of
desertedness and overwhelming fear of what would happen to her.  She only
knew one thing sure, she couldn't ever go back.  Jed wondered more about
where she came from and what the deep dark secret was that made her take
this giant leap far away from what should have been a secure place...  He
waited to see how she would react to his statement about tonight; he could
see deep thoughts from her face.  After staring a few moments, Megan looked
at him again and cracked a slight smile.  She was thinking, << I wonder if
he is kind enough to offer some place to stay or was this dinner the final
offer he will make to me?>>> He sat there looking back at her and thinking,
<< should I offer her a place to sleep?  Is that too precocious, or should
I let this be the last of it and offer to drop her at a shelter?  >>>

   Finally, after a few moments she said, she had no clue as to where she
could go and opened the door to him by asking if he could think of any
place that would take her with no money or I D.  Jed just saw the light go
on as she had opened up wide to him, now if he made the offer it wouldn't
seem so out of line.  Yet, he decided to mention the shelter, making sure
she knew it would be uncomfortable there and strange.  On the second
thought though, he had plenty of room in his flat if she felt comfortable
enough to stay there for at least the night.  She was thinking real hard as
the food arrived and she didn't answer right away.  She waited till the
waitress walked away and slyly smiled, and said, "Are you going to expect
any services from me for the stay?" Jed almost choked on his first bite of
food, where did that come from?  He took a deep breath and swallowed what
was left in his mouth and quickly responded, "Are you joking?  I would not
even fathom asking a "little girl" that kind of thing." Even though, in the
back of his mind he was thinking about how sexy she looked under the dim
lighting in that hot little outfit and when she smiled it just radiated off
her face.  She looked a little worried now, telling him she didn't mean to
imply that he was a creep or anything, but she had to be careful since she
was with a technical stranger in a strange place.  He tried not to make it
sound like she owed him or anything, but he let her know that a creep type
would have bought her clothing, or fed her.  That type might be quicker to
remove the stuff she had on and just take advantage of her right in the
alley.  Megan, now felt guilty for even bringing it up and looked that way
in her face, eyes lowered in a defeated look.  She didn't know what to say
to make it all better, so she remained quiet.  Jed had noticed the look and
the sudden silence and he contemplated what to say next also..

   In the meantime he had kept glancing over when he thought she wasn't
paying attention and looking her over and his eyes would always fall to her
legs and feet.  Now in his thinking mode, he lowered his eyes too and of
course her feet became his focus for a bit, not realizing that he was
staring.  She had noticed his intermittent glances and his eyes on her legs
and feet but had chosen to act like she didn't.  She also thought this was
very neat that he seemed attracted to her and a little scary in an odd
way.. Jed looked back up just in time to realize she was staring at him
staring at her feet and he smiled a shy smile and turned red a little. 
This blush made Megan think, he wasn't such a bad guy after all.  So she
broke the silence with I'll think about your offer while we eat.  He could
only smile since he had just taken another bite.

   He said that to clarify, if there were any services to be provided it
would go strictly to cleaning, helping out and whatever other chores he
could think up..  This brought a smile back to her face as she realized he
was truly not a letch.  She sat there pondering, about this nice man who
had got her dry clothes, and bought her a nice dinner and compared him to
all the people who had walked by like they just didn't care.  After
thinking about this for a few moments, she got a really interesting smile
on her face.  Jed missed the smile though as his eyes focused once again on
her cute toes.  She had kicked off her sandals under the table and he could
see one foot clearly as she bounced it up and down from crossing her legs,
the other sat square on the floor.  He had noticed the remainder of polish
that she had put on each toe.  He couldn't help but think that she had a
fine set of feet to match a fine pair of legs and ankles.  Just then he
tried to pull his attention back to the matter at hand.  He looked over to
Megan and asked her if she had meant that she would take him up on his
offer of overnight.  She just shook her head a little in the affirmative as
she was chewing her food this time.  She still had a bit of a twinkle in
her eyes though thinking about what her mind had though moments before. 
She wanted to repay him for his wonderful kindness and she had an idea of a
way to at least make his day.

   As Jed filled his mouth once again she had dropped her upper leg and
foot to the floor.  She figured there's no time like the present to try her
idea out.  So she slowly raised her foot off the floor and inched it over
to his upper shoe area, looking to see what he would do.  He just stopped
and looked in her direction, not moving and not saying a word.  Thinking it
could have just been an accident or something like that, he waited to see
if she removed it right away or not.  As he didn't react in a negative way,
she raised her toes a little higher and rubbed them on his ankle.  Now he
knew this was no accident and he wasn't sure how to respond, he looked at
her directly and raised his eyebrows a little as if to asked, what you are
doing.  She could see the expression and without a word she just smiled a
little, moved her toes a little higher raising his pant leg with them.  Now
he felt her toes on his skin there and raised his eyebrows higher, he
wasn't sure to say anything yet or not.  He cracked a bit of a smile from
the corner of his mouth as in a little approval and she continued to rub
her toes around the lower part of his leg.  He could feel the beginnings of
a hard on stirring in his groin.

   Megan looked at him and that sly smile returned to her face as if to say
she knew what she was doing and was having fun.  He asked her if she was
sure that she wanted to continue this sneaky behavior under the table and
she replied, "I just thought you would get a kick out of this, since you
seemed so fascinated by my feet." He couldn't help but blush and nod,
knowing full well he had been caught.  He wasn't sure he should allow this
though, oh, the trouble he could get into...  She wasn't thinking of any
trouble, just about bringing him a little fun while eating.  He felt her
toes all over his calf and rubbing around his lower leg and he felt more
stirring in his groin and thought he might have to make her stop, but it
wasn't what he wanted to do.

   She watched his face further as he just smiled a little more and she
raised her toes to the knee area.  She was enjoying the expressions as much
as he was the feeling.  Looking into her eyes and that soft face he
couldn't help but allow some more.  His smart side said to stop it now
while he still could and the other side of his brain was like it was on
drugs enjoying the euphoria.  As she moved her toes to the top of knee
area, he thought to stop her there, so he moved his hands under the table
and grabbed her foot.  She rose the other foot slowly raising the other
pant leg, thinking it was like a game now and he grabbed that one as well,
stopping them both at the tops of his knees.  Now, she looked into his eyes
again to see his reaction and if he was mad or not.  As her eyes met his,
she realized he had a concerned look, and his eyes were almost pleading.

   By now he had about half an erection coming on and here he was holding
two of the sexiest feet in his hands on his lap, this could be trouble. 
Even so, he couldn't force her to stop only slow her down.  His hands and
fingers began to feel her feet all over and she allowed him to.

   Megan had to wonder, as she had never seen anyone pay so much attention
to someone else's feet.  She didn't of it as anything really exotic at the
moment though.  Jed's fingers really began to massage the soles and toes
now and the balls of the feet.  He began to move both hands to one foot and
rub around it then switching back to the other.  Megan started to think, <<
this feels really good>>> and relaxed, allowing his manipulating of her
feet.  She even started to move her feet into the massaging fingers.  She
thought at first it would tickle but it was very soothing.  Jed was having
a whole other line of thought as he caressed her feet back and forth
keeping them at bay on his knee area.

   To be continued....
