For a long time, Jon sat in darkness, buried underneath other ballet gear. He could barely hear sounds outside the bag, but could feel vibrations as the bag was jostled. Finally, there was light again as Rachel opened her bag. "Time for practice," she said. Then she took out all her practice gear, put it on, and picked up Jon and the other shoe. Jon could only watch as his mouth was opened and Rachel's foot shoved into it. She slipped on her other shoe, then stepped onto the ballet room's practice floor.
Rachel then proceeded to dance a highly complicated routine. She soon became sweaty, and Jon could taste her sweaty feet and tights. He was also being stepped on repeatedly. For the next two hours, Jon tasted Rachel's feet as she danced. Finally she took her shoes off, removing her foot from Jon's mouth. He was stuffed back into the bag while her tights were washed. Jon remained there the rest of the day.
