"First things first, we need to find Sarah. I'll let her decide what we do with you." Natalie announced, rolling Jordan into the center of her fist, no differently than she would a small coin.
Covered by Natalie's fingers on all sides, Jordan could occasionally make out the lights of a disco ball on the ceiling as Natalie moved through the crowd. Occasionally bouncing on her toes to look over people's heads as she searched for Sarah.
Eventually, she spotted her Latin friend in the corner of the dance hall, and Natalie began moving with a clear purpose, intermittently squeezing Jordan in her fist. Every time she did this, it pushed Jordan's face into her palm, forcing him to smell and taste the lotion she rubbed on herself before the dance.
The powerful fragrance of pineapples and coconuts forcing its way up his nostrils, catching in his throat as his face slid against her skin.
"Hey, Natalie! You haven't seen Jordan around, have you?" Sarah's voice boomed outside Natalie's palm as she talked loudly to ensure Natalie heard her over the thumping music.
"Sarah's asking about me?" Jordan thought to himself, believing she had finally come around, if only for a moment before she opened her mouth again.
"I know it's dumb, but I'm really trying to avoid him tonight. He's just been such a pain in my ass these last few weeks," Sarah admitted, as Natalie gave her fist an extra tight squeeze, telling Jordan to take a hint.
And while being squeezed by Natalie was unpleasant to deal with, Sarah's words hurt a lot more.
"About that. I might have done something to keep that little nuisance off your back for a while." Natalie admitted, holding her hand behind her back while she waited for Sarah's reaction.
"What? Did you tell him to stay away from me? Because that hasn't been working out so well." Sarah shrugged, wishing he'd take a hint.
"Nah, way better." Natalie smiled, moving her fist between her and Sarah, unfurling her fingers to reveal the miniaturized Jordan.
Jordan looked up at the girls past their boobs, laying on his back about level with their belly buttons as Sarah examined what Natalie was holding. It looked like some strange pint-sized doll, but it wasn't. In fact, it kinda looked like...
"Jordan?" Sarah asked, suspending her disbelief after the crazy last year she'd had. Looking around to make sure nobody caught her weird reaction.
"We need to go somewhere private," Sarah said, prompting Natalie to close her fist around Jordan once more as the two girls left the dance and headed upstairs to the girls' bathroom on the second floor.
It was a bumpy ride for Jordan as Natalie walked up the steps, not holding Jordan as tightly as she had earlier, allowing him to bounce between her fingers as she focused on keeping him contained.
The girls hurried across the empty second-floor hallway and into the unoccupied girl's bathroom, turning the lock to ensure they wouldn't be interrupted.
"Okay, Natalie. What did you do?" Sarah asked, standing across from Natalie as she held Jordan at chest level between them, both girls locking eyes as they carried on their conversation, completely ignoring Jordan.
"Hey! Can I get a word in here?" Jordan asked, looking between Natalie and Sarah, wondering if he should fly between them to get a word in edge-wise.
Although, the more he thought about it, the more he realized they would probably swat him down like a little gnat, buzzing around in front of their faces.
"Well, I shrunk him so he'd stop being such a pain in your ass. It was really getting on my nerves that he wouldn't leave you alone." Natalie admitted, making it clear that she didn't just do this for Sarah's benefit. But her own as well.
"Really? That's hilarious! I should have thought about this sooner. In fact, I have an idea of how we can put him to use at this size." Sarah replied, thrilled by the idea of shrinking him, putting Jordan on edge.
Natalie, on the other hand, was intrigued to hear Sarah out.
"Oh? What did you have in mind? Between his Kryptonian physiology and being shrunk, he should be able to handle just about anything you have in mind if you wanted to drop him in your shoe or something." Natalie responded, noticing a mischievous twinkle in Sarah's eyes as they rolled down to glance at her shrunken ex-boyfriend.
Jordan really hoped she would turn down this suggestion, unaware that Sarah had something much worse in store for him.
What does Sarah have in mind?
1. Sarah turns around and lifts her dress to reveal her panties, suggesting that Jordan should spend the night right where he's been the last few weeks, up her ass. Only now, he'll be doing it in a more literal sense.
2. Sarah asks Natalie to pull her foot out of her boot and pushes Jordan inside so he can spend the rest of the dance supporting her friend from under her foot.
3. Sarah grabs Jordan and holds him in front of her face, telling him how annoying he's been lately, and even though she doesn't want to deal with him anymore, she'll be nice and let him get to second base one last time, pushing him into her bra under the weight of her boob while her and Natalie go dancing together.
