Stilettos
She was always uncomfortable in stilettos. She hardly ever wore them - only when forced. But once in a while her mum got her to wear them, along with a dress ("try looking like a girl once in a while!") out to some party. Her mother got invited to many of those parties around the town, before she got so quiet, so beat into that quietness. And Kate used to get dragged to some of those parties. In stilettos. She hated stilettos.
Stilettos felt like putting on something just a little bit fake. It felt like cheating. After all, weren't they all about making you taller? They felt like lying just a little bit.
And more importantly, they hurt her heels like anything.
So she usually took them off in some corner after a while. Her dresses were pretty long, and nobody was looking at anybody's feet anyway, what with the dancing and the talking and the eating. So she got away with bare feet most of the time.
It was the feeling of relief she got from taking off those stilettos that she got when she was with him. The huge sigh she could silently breath, and the feeling of being the real her again she felt when those heels came off and she could feel the cool floorboards against her toes. It was that feeling when she was with him.
The feeling of taking off her stilettos and being Kate.
