"Get your filthy, disgusting hands off me," I shrieked to the asshole trying to drag me into his van. "You have no idea who you're screwing with pig brain." I tried clawing at his arms, grasped around my midsection, but he was as strong as a fucking wrestler. To think, only 20 minutes ago I was coming home from the same old boring as shit school day. Right when I got out of my truck, this brutish barbarian sneaks up behind me and tries to pull me to this dark colored van parked right behind my truck. Being the time of day that is was, no one was round to see this all take place. I couldn't see his face, but I had a gut feeling I really didn't want to.
"Eddie, get your lazy ass up and give me a hand." From somewhere behind me I heard this Eddie guy walking up to us. Out of nowhere a piece of tape came to smack against my mouth in an effort to lessen my yelling, but that didn't stop me from trying. The brute grasped my flimsy wrists in one hand and held them against my chest while Eddie picked up my feet and dumped me into the back of the van.
The big guy hopped into the front of the van and started the engine. Once brute man wasn't holding onto me I went to remove the tape and get out of this hell-hole when Eddie pulled out a gun and pointed it right at my face. Now I've seen a lot of guns, and this one looked pretty fucking real. I am a strong, independent woman, but this scared the shit out of me.
"Please don't do that. I really don't want to have to use this." I couldn't really see Eddie very well, but I could tell he was deadly serious. Unsure of what to do, I kind of just stared at him, imagining where his eyes would be when not shrouded by darkness.
"Got everything under control Eddie?" the big man said from the front.
"Yes Emmett, we're all good as long as Isabella here just does what I say," Eddie responded to the brute, now known as Emmett.
"Fuck you," I mumbled back to Eddie, a little slurred by the tape.
"Quite the mouth this little girl has, eh Eddie," Emmett laughed from the drivers seat. I wanted to turn around and smack his smartass face, but Eddie distracted me by gathering items from a toolbox next to him.
"Just drive Emmett, and would you stop calling me that. You know it pisses me off," Eddie responded, all the time still keeping the gun pointed straight at me.
"Right sorry Edward, I forgot," Emmett sarcastically replied insincerely. While Edward, nice name, was distracted I started to reach for the tape and make small movements toward the side door.
"Isabella, I told you not to move. You and I aren't going to get along if you won't listen to me. Now please turn around and face my friend over there. This is going to be a long ride. The more you cooperate, the easier this will be." Deciding to not piss him off further, I turned around to face Emmett. I could see from the corner of his mouth he was smiling. The fucker was enjoying this. Out of nowhere a black cloth comes over my head to cover my eyes for a blindfold. Again, I am a strong, independent woman, but I could not handle the darkness. I started to protest to this when Edward came right against me. I swear my heart was beating so fast even he could hear it. I don't let too many guys get close to me like Edward was.
"Isabella if you don't let me put this on I will have to knock you out," he whispered into my ear. "As a n added bonus I'll even take the tape off if you're quiet. Will you obey?" My options sucked, but being drugged would suck even more. I nodded my head and lowered my hands. He finished putting the blindfold on but was careful not to get too much of my hair jammed into the knot. It took all my will power not to fight back. I heard a small clink that sounded like the gun being put down, but I didn't want to risk anything. Then Edward slowly and smoothly pulled my hands behind me.
"Isabella, before I continue I just want to remind you not to fight, and everything will be alright." Again Edward was whispering in my ear, so low, Emmett couldn't even hear him. "Now I am going to give you another choice. I can either bind your hands with tape or rope, and it will be done either way. Nod once for tape and twice for rope." Decisions, decisions. Either way I was screwed, so I went with the less painful option. After nodding my head once, I heard Edward start to rip off a roll of tape. "If I start to hurt you just shake your head," Edward said as he started to bind my wrists. For as much as I hate these assholes, Edward sure was polite. It's really unfortunate that he is a bad guy because he is just so fucking gentle. He went nice and slow and didn't jerk my arms around. If I didn't know any better, I would think Edward was actually being nice. Yeah right, the guy freaking snatched me from my house. A girl can dream.
"I'm not going to tape your feet because I feel like I can trust you. Am I correct?" he asked in his cold, yet comforting voice. I nodded my head to show my complacency. He began moving me onto a soft surface. It felt like a mattress. At least I didn't have to lay on the hard, cold surface that is the van. "Just lay here, be quiet, and it'll be over before you know it." I heard him start to walk up to the front when I realized he never took the tape off my mouth. I tried alerting him to this fact hen he told me to be quiet.
"If you can stay silent for five minutes, then I'll take it off. Just relax, and nobody will hurt you." I shifted around to try to find the most comfortable position. The truth is there is no comfortable position when you're lying down with your hands behind your back.
Amidst all of the events that had taken place, I never once stopped to think about why they wanted me. Maybe they were going to sell me to a prostitution ring. Maybe it was a vendetta against my father, who happens to be the Chief of Police in our town. Maybe my friends are just pulling a stunt. Or just maybe a prince from a far off country is going to sweep me away and live happily ever after. Not fucking likely.
Before I even realized it, I was already falling asleep on a mattress, in a van driven by two men I've never even seen before. Oh yes, this is just the best fucking Friday ever.
