Within a matter of seconds the Child's foot was on top of him. He'd caught a glimpse of five pudgy toes and a flat sole before he was pressed into the carpet. Soft skin molded around him for a split second before the air was forced out of his lungs.
Beth yawned, wiggled her toes and was about to pad out to the kitchen for pancakes when she noticed something under her right foot. Glancing down she curiously lifted her foot away. Stars sparkled in Scott's vision as he breathed again. lying flat on his back he looked up, the "little girl"'s blue eyes focused on him.
"Little Man!"
Pudgy outstretched fingers reached for him and Scott found himself pressed into flesh so hard that the air was pushed out of his lungs.
Beth opened up her hand and looked at her prize. It was a little man. She had caught a little man. Her child mind didn't question it, just accepted it. He was waving his arms. She heard the little man say something but she couldn't make out all of it. She did however hear the word "Help." She liked helping. Beth nodded. She would help. With her other hand she picked the little man off her palm and held him between her thumb and forefinger. The little man cried out which made her giggle.
She made out another word "Mommy" Beth nodded again. He wanted her to take him to her mother. She walked out of her room and into the hallway and sought out to find Mommy. All the while the little man she held hung on for dear life.
