Please email me at ajbrown2005@yahoo.com if you would like more information on my Custom Stories** Cliff enjoyed outdoor activities like hiking and camping. The 22-year-old recent college graduate also enjoyed a good dark beer now and again. He wasn't into sports at all which sometimes made it hard for him to hang out with other guys. But he was new in his apartment building that he moved into soon after graduating college, so when a few guys from the building invited him to go out with them to watch some live local mixed martial arts, he felt obligated to go. They had front row seats and the fights were taking place in a cage. Cliff didn't really like watching any sports but now that he was sitting down and looking at the cage he realized he really didn't want to be there. He was a little soft and the thought of watching guys beating each other up and getting hurt disturbed him. The first fight started and Cliff didn't enjoy watching it but it wasn't as bad as he thought it was going to be. The guys weren't as aggressive as he thought they'd be and the fight wasn't as bloody as he thought it would be. The guys around him were still going crazy over it which he didn't understand at all but he was just glad he didn't see anything that bothered him. They watched more matches and although they weren't as passive as the first one, Cliff could at least deal with them. He wasn't drinking beer since they didn't serve any kind of the darker beers that he liked so he just kind of hung out and tried to fit in. The guys he was with seemed to like him. "Alright!" the one guy Dean that was sitting next to him said after a few matches. "Time for the Main Event." Cliff was glad for the Main Event because it meant the cage fighting was almost over with. "And tonight's challenger for the Main Event," the announcer standing in the center of the cage said. "Luciana Diaz!" Cliff watched with great surprise as a Hispanic woman who looked to be maybe a couple of years older than him started to make her way towards the cage. He couldn't believe the Main Event was going to be a woman's fight. He was a bit old-fashioned and didn't like the idea of two women going at it. "The Main Event is a woman's fight?" Cliff said to Dean and he didn't sound pleased about it. "Oh yeah," Dean said with his eyes right on Luciana as the nervous looking woman made her way into the cage. "Wait until you see the champion - Rita Rose is her name. She's a total bad-ass but she is hot too. She's never lost a fight." Once Luciana was in the cage and ready, the announcer announced the champion Rita Rose. She started making her way towards the cage and she looked frightening. Her blond hair was in a ponytail and she had a mean look on her face like she had no problem badly hurting anyone that got in her way. She was announced at 5'4 and weighing 129 pounds but she still frightened Cliff even though she wasn't very big. The two women made their way to the center of the cage as the referee went over the rules with them. Rita was staring Luciana right in the eyes with that frightening look and Luciana looked like she was trying her best not to show she was afraid. Cliff didn't blame her but based on the looks on their faces, he didn't know how Luciana was going to have a chance in this fight. The bell rang and the fight began. Rita put her fists up and she looked ready to rock. Luciana put her fists up and the two danced around a bit. Rita then went in and punched Luciana in the face hard. It knocked Luciana's head back and based on that one punch it looked like the toughness difference between the two women was a lot greater than it had been with the other fighters. Rita punched her in the face again and Luciana looked like she was going to cry after taking it. She almost looked like she didn't belong fighting in a cage. Luciana threw a desperate punch at Rita's face and Rita just easily backed out of the way. Rita then charged at Luciana, wrapped her arms around her, and started pushing her backwards. Rita was pushing her right towards where Cliff and his buddies were sitting with a lot of force and even though there was a cage in between them, it still caused Cliff to flinch a bit. Rita was clearly a lot stronger than Luciana was as Luciana couldn't even come close to stopping her. Rita slammed her up against the cage hard right in front of where Cliff was sitting and he had to look away. It looked and sounded like it hurt a lot and it bothered him. He was still looking away and could hear Rita punching her so he couldn't help but look back. Rita punched her a few times in the ribs hard and Luciana wasn't quick enough to defend any of them. "Yeah!" Dean yelled excitedly. Cliff wasn't big into watching fighting but he could least understand why people would like watching a good fight. He could not understand the enjoyment of one person just beating another person up. Rita then grabbed Luciana by the sports top she was wearing and threw her back towards the center of the octagon. Luciana's body shook around when she did and she looked like she was barely able to stay on her feet. Rita walked towards her with her arms down at her sides leaving her body wide open for Luciana to punch her if she wanted. Luciana put her fists back up but looked very reluctant to throw a punch. Rita kept her arms down with her chest out and the two circled around the octagon a bit. Luciana threw a punch at Rita's face and Rita easily moved out of the way again. Luciana threw another one and Rita easily deflected it. Rita then punched Luciana in the face hard again. Luciana somehow stayed on her feet after it but Cliff didn't know how because she looked like she didn't have a clue where she was. Rita kept her arms down at her sides leaving her body wide open for Luciana to throw another punch but Luciana was so shaken up by that last punch that it looked like she didn't even realize it. Rita punched Luciana in the face a couple of more times and Cliff didn't know how much longer he could watch this. He wanted to look away or maybe even just walk away but he didn't want his new friends to think he was some kind of wuss. He continued to watch as Rita grabbed Luciana and then shoved her right up against the cage. This wasn't a fight at all - it was just an ass kicking, yet the audience seemed more excited watching this one than they did any of the previous fights. Rita punched Luciana in the stomach a couple of times then she took a step back. She then kicked Luciana in the ribs hard. The punches looked painful enough but the kick looked like it was more than Luciana's body could take. Cliff watched as Luciana's body looked like it had lost all strength to support her after that kick and she went right to the ground. As much as he wanted to look away at that point he couldn't help but be curious what would happen next since the poor woman was taking a beating far worse than he had ever seen. Even though she still had that mean look on her face, Rita seemed to enjoy inflicting pain as she just jumped on Luciana who had landed on her back and it looked like she was still going to beat on her some more. She sat on her chest and started punching away at her face as the audience went nuts. Finally, went it was clear beyond a shadow of a doubt that Luciana was no longer in a position to defend herself, the referee came along and pushed Rita off of her opponent to stop the fight. The bell rang and Luciana just rolled onto her side but it looked like she didn't have a clue where she was. Rita stood up with a huge smile on her face which was the complete opposite of the mean and frightening look she had on her face before and during the fight. She looked very happy and even a bit cute. Cliff would have thought she looked attractive with that smile if it weren't a result of her just beating the living shit out of someone. Luciana had spun her body around a bit so she was facing Cliff. Her face was bruised and she also had a lot of blood on it. She was holding her ribs right where Rita kicked her and it looked like she was having a very difficult time breathing. Cliff was so close to her being in the front row and it was definitely the most disturbing thing that he had ever seen. He couldn't look any longer and when he looked up at Rita, what he saw startled him and made him actually feel afraid. Rita was looking right at him and it seemed she had been watching how disturbed he looked looking at Luciana. She had an evil smile on her face like she saw how uncomfortable that made him and was proud that she was able to make him feel that way. She continued to stare at him right in the eyes in a way that made him think she was going to walk out of the cage and go beat him up next. He felt his heart starting to pound. "And the winner!" the announcer said loudly after a period of time of Rita starting at Cliff that Cliff felt was way too long. "And still the women's champion - Rita Rose!" Once the announcer started to talk Cliff had looked away and now he looked back at Rita to see that she was just smiling and celebrating her victory. She seemed very pleased that she had won and didn't look like she cared about anyone in the audience. Was Cliff just imagining that she was staring him down? That certainly seemed like a possibility. He supposed he'd never know for sure. "Hey, there's a bar right across the street," Dean said to Cliff while Rita was still celebrating her victory and Luciana still hadn't gotten up. "We're gonna go out and have a couple drinks if you want to join us. Don't worry, they'll have that dark shit there that you like." Dean smiled. "Yeah sure," Cliff said and he figured going out for a relaxing beer would feel good after what he had just witnessed. "That would be great." The bar was a sports bar with a ton of people there and sports on all of the different TVs. He kind of wished that he did just go home although the beer he was drinking really tasted good. He could barely hear his friends talking and what he could hear was them continuing to talk about Rita pummeling Luciana which he just wanted to forget about. "No shit," Jesse, one of the guys that was with them, said as he looked over towards the entrance of the bar right around when Cliff finished his beer. "Looks who's here." Cliff looked over to the entrance and he saw Rita walking in wearing a black long-sleeved shirt at that same big smile on her face that she had on once she won her fight. Her long blond hair which had been braided behind her head during her fight was now down over her shoulders - she was definitely an attractive woman. But Cliff was still afraid of her. She walked through the bar without any guards with her or anything, looking very cocky, and deciding which people she wanted to acknowledge and which ones she didn't as they all tried to shake her hand. She looked around a bit and she made eye-contact with Cliff. Once her eyes met his she locked hers right in on his and now he had no doubt that she was staring him down when she was in the cage. He was afraid when he first saw her, now he was terrified, and she could definitely tell. She kept looking right at him, now walking towards him. He could feel himself sweating and even shaking a bit wondering if she was going to say or do anything to him. He was so afraid of the bad-ass woman that he just wanted to turn around and get out of there. But he stayed where he was. "You gonna get another beer?" Dean said to Cliff. "Yeah" Cliff said pulling out his money feeling like he really needed one. The bartender poured him another dark beer and he took a big swig of it. He looked over at Rita with all of the people surrounding her. She looked so beautiful and he couldn't believe that she had it in her to beat up someone to the level that she did. He took another swig of his beer then looked back at her. Rita was smiling and talking to the people but then she turned and looked at him again. There wasn't a doubt in his mind that she was staring him down, that she recognized him from when she saw him from the cage, and that she could tell he was afraid. She continued to stare him down and doing a good job of scaring him until he looked away and took another big swig of his beer. "You should go up and talk to her, bro," Dean said to Jesse. "Get an autograph or something." "Yeah, but she's surrounded by people," Jesse said although he was looking at her like he wanted to do it. "I don't want to be pushing through people just to get an autograph." "If you want to do it you better do it soon, though," Dean said. "She posted on Twitter that she's here so this place is gonna fill up quick." Cliff didn't want to look at Rita again but he couldn't help it. He glanced over her way and saw her talking some more so he continued to look. But the second it looked like she started to look his way he looked away before she could make eye-contact. He took a big gulp of his beer and then another one. He normally liked to take his time with his dark beer but after those two big gulps it was all gone. "I think I'm going to get going guys," Cliff said as he stood up and he didn't want to be in the same bar with Rita any longer in case she did decide she wanted to walk up and start trouble with him. "It was a fun night." "I'll bail with you too" Dean said. "Yeah, I'll leave with you guys" Matt, the other guy that they were with said. "What?" Jesse said and he seemed like he wanted to stay. "You guys are all gonna jet?" "Yeah man, this place is going to get packed," Dean said. "Cliff's smart, this is a good time to go home. Have fun though - don't leave here without getting an autograph." It looked like Jesse was going to stay but Cliff, Dean, and Matt all got up to go. Cliff was glad to get out of there. As they made their way towards the exit, Cliff looked at Rita one more time. She looked at him with a cocky smile and he quickly looked away. The three guys walked outside and Cliff felt good no longer being in there with her. "Hey!" he heard a female voice yell as they were walking to their cars. The other two guys stopped and turned around right away. A frightened Cliff realized he had no choice but to do the same. Walking towards them was Rita walking all by herself with a big smile on her face. She was looking right at Cliff and he could feel his hands shaking as this bad-ass chick walked towards him. "Rita Rose, to what do we owe this pleasure?" Dean said, clearly trying to flirt with her. "You!" she said, pointing to Cliff and completely ignoring what Dean said. "Get on your knees." "Uh, um, excuse me?" Cliff said nervously. "On your knees, pussy," she said as she walked closer to him but then sat on the bumper of a car that they were close to. "You're going to lick my feet." "Ha-ha-ha," Matt laughed. "What the fuck." "You see the beat down I gave that bitch in the cage?" Rita said to Cliff as she looked off the open-toed shoes that she was wearing and revealed her bare feet. "Yeah, I know you saw it. I saw the look on your face. I'm feeling like I want to have my feet licked right now. Get on your knees and lick them or you're going to end up like her." Cliff was so afraid. He was 5'10 and weighed 165 pounds so he was bigger than Rita was. But he had never been in a fight in his life. He had that image of his mind of Luciana taking all of those punches and that kick from Rita. He didn't want that to happen to him. He looked down at her bare feet and the idea of licking them was so degrading but it did seem preferable to getting beat up. "This is fucked up!" Matt said with a laugh. "Bro, just walk away from her," Dean said to Cliff. "Seriously, just walk away." "I wouldn't recommend listening to him," Rita said, still looking right at Cliff and paying little attention to the other two. "If you even turn around I'll get up and beat the living shit out of you. I'll pound you into the cement that same way I beat that other bitch up but you won't have a referee here to save you like she did." Cliff felt like he was going to vomit. "H-how long do you want me to do it for?" Cliff asked. "Just walk away from her!" Dean said. "Seriously bro, she's just fucking with you. You really think she's going to fight you over this? If she does, just punch her in the fucking head. I don't care if she's the women's champion, she's still a chick!" "You try walking away and your dead meat," she said and the way she listened to what his friends were saying but still kept her eyes on Cliff made her very intimidating. "I'll pound your face into that pavement so bad that no one will recognize you for weeks. Then I'll kick your skinny ass in the ribs and keep doing it until they break. You know what broken ribs feel like? There's nothing a doctor can do about them. You just have to deal with the pain for weeks until they heal and it's going to be hard for you to breathe that entire time." The thought of that made him feel like he was going to faint. She really knew how to terrify him. He couldn't believe he was so afraid of a good looking woman. He didn't care if licking her feet was degrading or what his friends thought of him. He didn't want broken ribs. He'd do anything not to have broken ribs. Rita smiled and it seemed like she could see that. "Don't ask me again how long you have to do it for," Rita said to him with a mean tone. "Just get on your fucking knees and lick my feet until I tell you to stop." "Don't do it" Dean said and it sounded like it was the last time he was going to say it. Cliff could feel his heart pounding. He looked down at those bare, rugged feet of hers and thought about how humiliating and inhumane it was for him to have to lick them. But he also thought about them kicking his ribs multiple times which was much more unpleasant and gave him a very uncomfortable feeling throughout his body. He got on his knees and could hear Dean make a noise of disappointment. He watched her bring her bare foot towards his face and the whole thing was really starting get real. He could see the texture of her sole that was rugged but still very feminine looking. He stuck out his tongue and touched it to her sole. "Oh you gotta be fucking kidding me!" Dean said as he watched it. "Should we like help him out or something here?" Matt said. "Seriously." "No," Dean said. "What are we gonna do? I'm not ganging up on some chick. If he can't handle himself with some chick making him her bitch like this, that's his problem. Let's bolt man." "Just keep licking," Rita said to Cliff as his friends walked away and she could tell he was thinking about turning his head. "Looks like they're leaving you. Some friends they are, huh? Doesn't matter. You just keep licking my feet until I tell you to stop. Lick my other foot now. And make sure to get the top of it as well as in between my toes." She stuck her other foot right in his face treating him like such a bitch. He touched his tongue to her heel then ran it up the arch of her foot to the ball of it. Her feet appeared clean and he could taste that she had showered but he could also taste a hint of sweat on them and he could kind of taste the ground of the cage she had been fighting in as well. "Alright, you little bitch," she said and she just stuck her foot right in his mouth. "Suck on it now." This was even worse. She had shoved it right in there showing absolutely no regard for his comfort or his self-respect. She stuck her foot back in his mouth deep enough to gag him a bit and he sucked on it the best he could hoping that would stop her from sticking it back even further. As he sucked on it, she pushed it back further anyway and he gagged. The gagging bothered him but the complete humiliation of what she was doing to him put him over the edge and he started to cry a little bit. He tried his best not to but he did enough for her to notice. "Awe, you going to cry now?" she said and he could not believe that as a grown man who had recently graduated from college he was being treated this way. "Poor little bitch is crying." She stuck her foot deeper in his mouth which made him gag again and he cried some more. Finally she pulled it out and when she did he could actually taste the foot taste in her mouth even stronger. He thought she was going to stick it back in but he just looked up at her and she was looking down at him smiling. "Stand-up!" she said. She was still kind of smiling but she said it sternly enough to frighten him to do what she said immediately. He obediently jumped to his feet with a frightened look on her face and he looked at the smile on her face, looking so pleased with what she was able to make him do. He stood there worried that she was just going to beat him up anyway. No one was around. What was stopping her? "Go home," she said to him with a mean tone and he just stood there wondering if she really meant it. "Go! And you better run too or I'm going to kick your ass. Run - now!" Continuing to be like a little bitch, he immediately started running just like she said. He sprinted to his car, very afraid of her catching him and beating him up. He didn't look back and when he got to his car he quickly pulled out his keys. He fumbled with them nervously before he opened the door, jumped in the driver's seat, slammed the door shut, and immediately locked it. He finally felt reasonably safe and he nervously looked around to see if she was anywhere nearby. She was nowhere to be seen and as he continued to look around he saw her walking back into the bar. There she went to go have more fun after bullying him beyond belief and clearly having no remorse about it. Now that it was all over he started to sink in what had happened and what a pussy he was. He just got down on his knees and licked her feet without even trying to stand up for himself. Why did he have to be such a coward? And why did she have to be such a bully? He didn't want to get beat up so what choice did he have. He punched his steering wheel then just shook his head in disgust with the situation as his eyes watered up again. The next day he was hoping that Dean or one of the guys might call him or pop in or something. He knew that they probably weren't real friends if they were going to not hang out with him over that but he still really hoped that wasn't the case. The next couple of days passed and none of them tried to reach out to him, though. Then he was walking down the hall and he saw Dean walking towards him with a couple of them. They were talking about something and it looked like it was a fun conversation. Cliff tried to say hi but they wouldn't even look at him. They walked right by him and it was clear that he had lost his new friends. It really sucked that he had guys his age in his own building that didn't want to hang out with him because they clearly thought he was too much of a pussy. Over the next couple of weeks he'd observe them. He'd peek out his window or watch them in the hall when they didn't realize it. They looked like they were doing fun stuff and sometimes they'd bring girls back to their apartment. But Cliff wasn't invited to be part of any of it. It started to really bother him that what Rita had done to him caused such a problem with his social life. He got on YouTube one day and started looking at a couple of videos of her he found thinking that might help him cope better. He watched one of her just absolutely beating the shit out of another woman. The woman didn't have a chance, ending up beaten and bloody, while Rita didn't get a mark on her. She was so damn tough. What the hell else was he supposed to do when Rita told him to lick her feet? He didn't want to end up beaten like that woman. Why did she have to pick him out of all people to bully? He was quickly getting bored of just going to work and going home to watch TV at night so he decided he had to try and be proactive to make some friends. There was a coffee house nearby that he figured he'd go check out. Most of the people there were there with other people and he would have felt awkward approaching them but there were a few people there by themselves like he was. There was one girl that there looked to be about his age that caught his eye. She had long light brown hair, was wearing a grey-shirt that showed off her long skinny arms, and she had headphones in her ears. Her face was somewhat pretty but he could tell by looking at her that she was more of an athletic type than she was a girly-girl. She was typing on her laptop and looked very focused on what she was doing. Cliff had a feeling she was just there to do work or something and wasn't really in the mood for being bothered. Still, he found her attractive and she just looked like a cool girl. There was no harm in going up and trying to talk to her. "What are you listening to?" he said as he approached her and she looked up at him a bit startled which made him think he may have made a mistake. She pulled her headphones out of her ears. "Excuse me?" she said looking him right in the eyes and the way she said it made him definitely feel like he was bothering her. "Just wondering what you are listening to" he said a bit more shyly. "Oh, sorry," she said. "You just startled me. I suppose if I'm going to come hang out in a coffee shop I should be a bit more social than to have headphones in my ears, huh? Now's the part where you get to make fun of me, I guess. I was actually listening to One Direction." "I can't really make fun of you for that," he said somewhat quietly. "I actually have one of their songs on my iPhone." "Really?" she said. "OK, you pass the test. Have a seat." She had her legs stretched out and her feet resting on the chair across from her but she took her feet off of it and kicked it out so Cliff could have a seat. He felt comfortable with her already and he sat down. The two of them got to talking and getting to know each other a bit. Her name was Kelsey and she was 22-years-old just like him. She was in grad school going for her PhD in mechanical engineering. She was a runner that ran two half marathons every year and had completed one full marathon. She played a bit of basketball with people at her church but admitted that she was not very good and neither were most of them. She came from a religious family and she was not as religious as them but she still went to church every week and was fairly into church activities. "So I should probably get back to studying," she said after they had been talking for close to an hour. "Maybe some other time you can buy me a cup of coffee when I'm not distracted by studying." He called her and the two of them started to hang out. She was a great girl and Cliff really liked her. She was fun, easy to talk to, and she had a great sense of humor. Even though he was not religious himself, he liked that she was very family and church oriented. It made her seem wholesome to him and not like the kind of girl that would ever stab him in the back. They did all sorts of different things together and he always had fun. They'd go to the movies or out to dinner. She might have a glass of wine or two with dinner but, like him, she never overdid it. They'd do outdoor activities like hiking and she even took him to church with her once which she actually enjoyed. They hooked up a few times as well although they hadn't yet had sex. She didn't have the dream body or anything as she did not have very big boobs but she did have an athletic build which he liked. She stood at about 5'6 and probably weighed about 135. She was lean but didn't really have curves to her. He was really starting to like her a lot and he wanted to ask her to be his girlfriend. They had a date one night going out to dinner and he figured that would be a good night to ask her. Her long, straight hair was down that night and she looked quite pretty. He was going to ask her at dinner to be his girlfriend but then so it wasn't too awkward he figured he'd wait until just before he dropped her off. "Oh let's stop here for a drink" Kelsey said as Cliff was driving her home. Cliff was already starting to feel his stomach turn as he drove up to the place and he felt it even more when Kelsey suggested they stop there - it was the same bar he saw Rita at when she made him lick and suck her feet. He didn't expect her to actually be there again but just seeing the place reminded him of that horrible night and he wanted to be as far away from it as possible. Why exactly did Kelsey want to stop there? She seemed too wholesome to go to a place like that. "Really?" he said. "You want to hang out there?" "Yeah," she said and she playfully slapped his shoulder. "We never go to any fun places like this. Come on, just one or two drinks." It hurt his feelings a bit that he was about to ask her to be his girlfriend and he felt that she was kind of complaining that they never did anything fun. Going to bars like that certainly wasn't his preference of what to do but he would have been willing to - though he would have preferred they didn't go to that one specifically. He wasn't going to make an issue of it though and he figured he could suck up going there for her. He pulled in the parking lot and it started bringing back the memory even stronger. Just seeing the layout of the parking lot reminded him of how awful it was sitting there on his knees while Rita took complete pleasure in forcing him to lick and suck her feet. He hated thinking about it and he was going to push Kelsey to leave after one drink. They walked through the parking lot, Kelsey looking excited to go inside, while Cliff felt more nervous the closer they got to the bar. Kelsey said something to him and he just kind of responded with a mumble. They walked inside and it was plenty crowded, reminding Cliff of the last time he was there even more. They had a seat at the bar and he ordered a regular dark beer. He figured that she'd order a glass of wine but he surprised her by ordering a vodka and cranberry juice. She took one gulp and immediately looked like she had more energy in her. She smiled at him and he smiled back but then he looked around to check out the scene a bit more. He looked around more and Kelsey was watching a basketball game that was on TV so she didn't seem to mind that he wasn't really paying attention to her. He figured he should talk to her though and stop looking around - they were on date after all. It had been weeks since he saw Rita there and that was right after one of her fights - what were the chances of her being there again? He gazed around the bar one more time and he saw her talking to some guy. He looked away and then had to look back to make sure he was really seeing what he was seeing and he almost spit his beer out when he did. He would never forget that cocky smile that she had and that long blond hair too. She almost looked his way but luckily she didn't see him - he needed to get out of there as soon as possible before she did. "You know we should really get going," he said to Kelsey trying not to sound nervous. "I didn't realize how late it was." "What?" she said and he really didn't want any resistance. "We've been out later than this before." "Yeah, but I forgot I got something to do for work early tomorrow" he said. "You OK?" she said and she obviously wasn't buying it. "You see someone that you don't want to see or something?" "No," he said and it was hard for him to lie when she was spot on. "I told you, I just gotta be up early tomorrow." "Alright," she said and she looked at her glass. "Can I finish my drink at least?" He didn't want to make her leave it but it was over half full still. If he paid for it he didn't think it was a problem telling her she couldn't finish it. "I'd really just rather go home now," he said and he tried to talk in a tone that sounded friendly and not anxious. "Tell you what, I'll pay for this drink for you and the next one you get when we go out is on me too." "Alright, fine," she said and she sat her drink down which made him feel bad but he didn't really care that much. "Let's go." She sat her drink down and the two of them got up to leave. He peeked back again to see if Rita was looking at him but luckily she was still involved in her conversation. "You sure you're not trying to get avoid someone?" Kelsey said. "It's fine if you are." "Nah," he said and there was no way he was going to admit that to her. "Just making sure the bartender took the tip I left." It looked like Rita might be looking in his direction but he didn't want to look back again now that Kelsey was paying that much attention to what he was doing. He was sure that it was just his paranoia and even if she noticed him, she probably wouldn't recognize him. Once they got outside, Cliff felt safe and he figured he should lighten up a bit so things weren't too tense once he asked Kelsey to be his girlfriend. "Yeah, sorry to rush you in there," he said and being out of the bar where Rita was made him feel quite a bit more relaxed. "I just?" "Hey!" he heard a voice that he immediately recognized as Rita's say. "Come on" he said to Kelsey but she had already turned around. "Yeah?" Kelsey said. Cliff turned around too and, just like Rita had done the last time to his former friends, she didn't pay any attention to Kelsey and just had her eyes right on Cliff as she walked towards him in that dark parking lot. She had that big, mean smile on her face as she walked closer to him. "You know what to do," Rita said when she got close enough to him as she sat down on the bumper of car and kicked off her shoes to reveal her bare feet. "On your knees and lick my feet." "What??" Kelsey said. "Come on," Cliff said to Rita almost with a whine as he definitely did not want to have to do this in front of Kelsey, especially not that night. "I already did this once. Can't you just leave me alone?" "What??" Kelsey said and Cliff figured that she didn't even know who Rita was. "Cliff, what are you doing? Just walk away from this weirdo - come on." "Don't listen to her," Rita said, with her eyes focused right on Cliff. "Remember, if you listen to anyone but me you're going to end up getting yourself hurt. Now get on your knees and lick my feet. I'm getting impatient." Cliff took a couple of deep breaths and started to look at Kelsey but he couldn't even look at her. He got on his knees. "What the heck??" Kelsey said with disbelief. "Just get up and walk away!" "Do you know who she is??" Cliff said as she turned his head to look at Kelsey. "She's the champion cage fighter around here. I just don't want any trouble." Kelsey looked like she was going to say something back but he felt Rita's foot slap his face before that could happen. "Shut up and lick my feet" Rita said. Cliff looked at her bare feet right in front of his face. They looked prettier than last time, her toenails painted a fresh dark blue, and the rest of her feet looking soft like she had just gotten a pedicure. But that didn't make it any less demeaning. The fact that they looked so feminine made it even more embarrassing in a way. And of course the fact that Kelsey was there watching didn't help matters. Rita moved her foot in a circle hinting that he better get going. He stuck out his tongue and touched it to the bottom of her foot. The taste was familiar to him and he did not like the fact that he was getting used to that taste. He ran his tongue up the bottom of her foot as she stretched out her toes. "I cannot believe you are doing that" Cliff heard Kelsey say and he could hear the sheer disgust in her voice. "Believe it," Rita said and she looked at Kelsey, finally acknowledging her. "Because you're going to be next." "Ha-ha!" Kelsey laughed and Cliff wanted her to not laugh and end up instigating things anymore. "Not a chance." "Just walk away and go to the car!" Cliff said as he turned his head and looked up at Kelsey. "I'll be there in a bit, you don't need to be part of this." "Shut up and keep licking!" Rita said and she slapped his face with the bottom of her foot again. "If you talk again you're going to make me mad. Now lick the other foot and make sure you get the top of it and between my toes." "I do not believe this" Kelsey said. "Heh-heh-heh" he heard Rita chuckle. She was such a bitch. There he was licking her feet, tasting them, and feeling how soft they felt on his tongue and she was taking such pleasure in it. The more he tasted them the more he just wanted to stand up and punch her in the face. But he thought about those YouTube videos and he thought about her beating the shit out of Luciana in the cage - that motivated him to keep going. "Alright that's enough," Rita said and she used the ball of her foot to push his face away from it, embarrassing him even more. "It's your girlfriend's turn." "I am NOT his girlfriend" Kelsey said and those words really stung Cliff although he knew he shouldn't have been surprised at that point. "Kelsey, just walk away" Cliff said to her but he looked at her standing her ground, clearly not realizing who she was dealing with. "I don't blame you," Rita said as she walked towards Kelsey with her chest out. "But you're out of luck tonight. "Get on your knees and lick my feet." "Not happening" Kelsey said and she put her hands on her hips. "Just do it!" Cliff said to her. "It's not worth getting hurt over. Do you know who she is?" "Seriously, do you know who I am?" Rita said to her with a cocky tone and look on her face. "Rita Rose - that name ring a bell to you at all?" "Yeah, you're the cage fighter," Kelsey said and Cliff really wished she would stop being disrespectful. "I've heard of you. Big deal." "Just shut your mouth and get on your knees and lick my feet" Rita said to her. "And if I don't?" Kelsey said. "Then you're going to fight the women's champion cage fighter right here and right now in this parking lot" Rita said. "Then I guess I'm putting my hair in a ponytail and we're going at it!" Kelsey said. "Kelsey, are you nuts??" Cliff said and he stood up. "She's a professional fighter!" But neither of the two women were paying any attention to him. Kelsey put her long hair in a ponytail and then put her fists in front of her face looking ready to fight. Rita just brushed her hair behind her shoulders with a confident, bitchy looking smile. Cliff wanted to step in and do something but he knew if he did then Rita would just beat him up. There was nothing he could do and he wished Kelsey would just walk away. Both of them had their fists up and started dancing around looking ready to fight. Cliff was certain that Kelsey was about to get beaten very badly and he didn't even want to watch but he knew he couldn't just leave her there. He did not like watching fighting in general and now he was going to have to watch a street fight take place right in front of him. Rita punched Kelsey in the face hard with a right hook and he had to look away it looked so painful. He looked back and Kelsey looked upset about having to take the punch but she was still on her feet. She still had her fists up and looked a bit less confident. Rita punched her in the face again with another right hook and Kelsey just wasn't skilled enough to try and block it. Kelsey looked more upset but she didn't back down. She threw a punch at Rita's face but Rita blocked it easily. Rita threw a punch at Kelsey's face but she missed. Kelsey swung back quickly and punched Rita in the jaw. Rita now got that mean, angry look on her face that she had as she approached the cage for her fight with Luciana and Cliff was really afraid for Kelsey. Kelsey then charged at Rita unexpectedly and Rita got her hands up making Cliff think that Rita was going to hit her. But Kelsey got in there quicker than Cliff expected. She had a bit of a height advantage over Rita and she was able to get Rita in a headlock. Cliff couldn't believe it as he watched Kelsey pull Rita's head right into her side. Kelsey's face was getting red and she definitely looked like she was holding on for dear life. But Rita tried to push out of it and she actually couldn't. He heard Rita let out a couple of girly whines as she tried to push out which he was very surprised to hear from the bad-ass girl. Rita groaned louder trying to sound angry and it seemed like she was trying to scare Kelsey into letting her go but it wasn't working. Kelsey kept holding on but her face was getting redder. Rita yelled loudly and she was finally able to push out of it, pushing Kelsey away from her in the process. Rita stood back up straight and Cliff could not believe what he saw when he looked at her face. It was extremely red and her eyes looked watered up like she was about to cry. He couldn't believe that Kelsey, who was just a runner that played basketball occasionally, had hurt her like that. Rita was breathing heavily through her nose and staring Kelsey down like she really wanted to hurt her - Cliff still thought she was going to. Rita walked towards Kelsey and Kelsey punched her in the face. It looked like a decent punch but Rita's head barely moved - it looked like it didn't hurt her at all. Rita threw a punch at Kelsey's face and Kelsey barely moved her head out of the way of it but Rita followed it up with a hard punch right to Kelsey's cheek. Kelsey grabbed her face and went down a bit and Rita punched her in the top of the head. That brought Kelsey's guard completely at her head and Rita kicked her right in the stomach with her bare foot. It looked like the kick completely took the wind out of her but somehow Kelsey was able to stay on her feet. She didn't look in good shape though and she definitely didn't look like she was going to be standing up again to fight. Rita glared at her with an extremely mean look as she walked closer to her. Rita grabbed her and tried to throw her down but Kelsey planted her feet and would not go down. Rita pushed at her looking angry and frustrated. She was able to push her back a few feet but she was clearly trying to take Kelsey on the ground but she couldn't. The two girls pushed at each other and then Kelsey started pushing Rita backwards. Kelsey gave Rita a good shove and shoved Rita a few feet away from her. Kelsey stood up straight and looked upset but she still looked ready to fight more. Rita looked frustrated that she wasn't able to put her away. Both girls had their fists back up looking for the right opportunity to throw the next punch. Kelsey threw a punch at Rita's face and Rita was just barely able to move out of the way. Cliff was surprised that Rita did not get a punch off first or even try and block the one that Kelsey threw at her. Kelsey kept coming and she punched Rita in the face twice. They were decent punches but Rita was able to take them. Rita punched Kelsey in the face hard and Kelsey barely stayed on her feet. Rita got an even scarier angry look on her face and she punched Kelsey in the nose which drew quite a bit of blood. Before Kelsey could react at all, Rita punched her in the eye twice and Kelsey dropped. Kelsey fell right on her back on the cement and Cliff could barely watch. Rita jumped right on her chest and punched her in the face multiple times, looking very angry as she did it. Kelsey tried putting up her hands but she couldn't guard her face and Rita kept punching her. Kelsey's face was quite bloody by that point and it was pretty clear that she was done. Rita stood up and put her bare foot right in Kelsey's face. "Now lick it!" Rita said to Kelsey with a tone that would have made just about anyone afraid to say 'no' to her. "Don't make me fucking tell you again." Kelsey sat up and put her face towards Rita's foot. Cliff thought she was dumb to not just do it to begin with and avoid such a horrible beating. But instead of licking Rita's foot, she grabbed it. She yanked it hard and pulled Rita right off of her feet. Rita landed on her side hard and Kelsey then jumped on her and pinned her on her back. Rita tried to push her off but Kelsey grabbed her by the wrists and pinned her arms down to the ground. Kelsey's face was bloody, she was crying, and her one eye was swelling up but she was on top. She punched Rita in the face a couple of times and Rita tried to defend but Kelsey got a couple of good punches in. Rita groaned loudly as she overpowered Kelsey and rolled on top of her. She punched her in the face a few times hard and her punches just looked so much more powerful than Kelsey's did. But Kelsey was able to overpower Rita and then roll back on top of her. She punched Rita in the face couple of more times causing Rita to groan more. Rita overpowered Kelsey again then rolled back on top of her. Rita's teeth were clenched and her face looked a bit bruised up too. It didn't look nearly as bad as Kelsey's face, though, which was bruised much worse and quite bloody. Rita was not going to show the beaten Kelsey any mercy and Cliff could not understand how this could be better than just licking her feet and getting it over with. Rita was tightly holding the collar of Kelsey's shirt with her left hand and punching Kelsey in the face repeatedly with her right. Kelsey's arms were down to her side and she was not able to even try and defend herself. Cliff thought he was going to have to finally man up and step in. But Rita stopped, stood up, and put her bare foot right back in front of Kelsey's face. "You gonna lick my feet or what?" Rita said and although she still sounded angry, she looked frustrated and like she was getting sick of fighting. "We're gonna keep fighting and I'm gonna keep beating your ass if you don't." "I'm not licking your feet," Kelsey said as she started to sit up. "So let's keep going." Kelsey sat up more and Rita actually started to back away. "You know what, fuck it," Rita said as she started to walk back over to where her shoes were. "This is a waste of fucking time. You're a crazy bitch, you know that?" Rita then just put on her shoes and walked away with a pissed off look on her face. She had clearly won that fight but she did not look happy that she didn't get her way. Cliff looked back at Kelsey getting up. Her face was extremely bloody and her left eye was almost completely swollen shut. It was disturbing to look at but it was hard to feel bad for her when he felt like she completely brought it on herself. "You OK?" he asked as he walked closer to her. "I'm fine!" she said, obviously lying and he felt like she was giving him some attitude which he didn't like. "Was that really worth it?" he said as she stood up and looked very upset in addition to looking beaten. "Was it really worth getting beat up like that instead of just licking her feet?" "Yeah it was worth it," she said to him with a soft but harsh tone and she looked at him like she really didn't like him. "You know why? Because these wounds are going to heal. And when they do I'll still have my pride. But you just got on your knees and licked that woman's feet because you were afraid to stand up for yourself. I've never seen anything so pathetic. She took your pride away from you and that's something you'll never be able to get back. So yeah, it was totally worth it." Hearing what she said and the way she said it stung badly and at that moment he thought he might have preferred a beat down to feeling the way he felt right then. He knew he was a pussy for not standing up to Rita but looking at the beaten Kelsey tell him that made it really sink in how pathetic he was. He felt like a complete pussy and he also felt horrible for not even trying to stand up for Kelsey. He just wanted to make it up to her. "Here, let me help you to the car," he said as he walked towards her trying to comfort her. "We can get you home so you can get cleaned up." "Nah, I'll pass," she said as she stepped back away from him. "I'll find a cab to take me home. And if I can't find one I'll walk. I'd feel safer walking home than going home with you." She turned away from him and walked away. As beaten as she was she still stood up straight and walked confidently. Cliff didn't feel like he could walk like that. He felt like such a pathetic pussy. **Email ajbrown2005@yahoo.com if you would like more information on my Custom Stories**
