TIFU by thinking that my shoe was full of Pine Needles...

So some context: I, a sophomore in High School, was at my friend's house playing video games. It was a friday night and we (my friends and I) had all congregated at his house in order to escape the rain. We were soaked, and as soon as we got home we immediately threw off our socks and shoes and raced for towels and radiators in order to dry ourselves off as well as our school supplies. So, later, when everyone was dry, we grouped up in a family room and played some video games/played on our phones. At that point, out of the corner of my eye, I saw some movement, but as my league game had intensified I couldn't look for more than two seconds. However, someone else saw whatever it was, and yelled out, "Cockroach!" At that point everyone stopped for a second and looked back at where he was pointing, but to our sadness the thing had escaped underneath some kitchen cabinets. The bravest among us stepped forth and scrambled to catch the thing before it escaped forever. However, after much blind groping, they could not grasp it. So we went back to playing games.

After about an hour it was getting late, so we all decided to head out and grab some dinner. Unfortunately, our socks were soaked, and as many of you probably know, putting on wet and cold socks isn't really the most comfortable activity... So we all just stuffed our bare feet in our shoes and head out. As we were walking, I kept feeling something poking my right foot, and, unsure of what it was just assumed that it was probably something like some stray pebbles or some pine needles. After a while, it began to hurt more and so I decided to remove my shoe and shake out whatever was bothering me. But I couldn't get to whatever it was. It had lodged itself between the soul and bottom of my shoe. So I reached in with my hand, hopping on one foot, and tried to grab whatever it was. I felt it loosen, whatever it was, and then shook out my shoe. Then, the moving body of a cockroach was flung onto the sidewalk. After that, I, the one who fears cockroaches more than any other insect, threw my shoe onto the ground and started running, jumping and shrieking down the street. It was honestly the most horrifying and disgusting experience of my tenth grade life.

TL:DR, Thought my shoe had some random crap in it. Tried to remove it with hand and shake. Living body of a cockroach appeared before me. Freaking out ensued.
