Bubbles P.O.V.
Okay, Bubsy, first date. First step, attempt to look cute.
I examined my reflection briskly in the mirror.
A tight light blue tank-top hugging my body tightly enough to be flirty but not enough to be... slutty. White shorts that were short enough to be teasing to the imagination, but not so short that it made me come off the wrong way. Blue sandals that added an inch or two of much needed height to my otherwise 5, 2" build. And my light blonde hair was thrown into my trade marked pigtails, but I had curled a few strands to make it look cuter.
"Passable." I muttered to myself before slinging on my customized purse and skipping down the steps.
"I'll be home later!" I called to my sister, Blossom, who sat in the living room, reading A Tale of Two Cities.
"Have fun!" She called back, right before I shut the door.
I giggled as I saw Mike waiting for me at the end of the driveway.
"Hey, sexy." He grinned and placed a kiss on my cheek as I flung myself at him.
"Hey, Mikey!" I returned, nearly buzzing with excitement, "So what's the plan for today?"
He gave me a secret smile, a look in his eyes that I couldn't decipher, "It's a surprise, baby."
I smiled back, reflexively and let him drag me to his red Ferrari.
"After you, milady." He chuckled, bowing as he held the passenger door open for me.
"Why thank you, good sir." I played along, giggling as I hopped in.
He seated himself behind the wheel and started cruising down the road, turning the radio up full blast. So much for conversation.
I sighed inaudibly and leaned back against the leather seat. This would be okay. So far Mike had been sweet and charming, so, whenever we got to our destination, I'm sure we would have a great time.
I smiled to myself and let my eyelids flutter shut and relaxed my tense muscles. Everything was going to be fine.

I woke up and it was dark outside. What? We had left at two... what was going on?
"Mikey?" I asked, groggy as I sat up straight.
"Hey, baby. We're almost there." He promised, smiling a bit manically.
"Where are we going?" I demanded, getting suspicious.
He gave me an amused glance, "It's a secret, babe. I told you that."
I looked around and saw that we were on a dirt road that cut into a forest I was unfamiliar with.
"Mike, will you please take me home?" I asked, trying not to let the panic seep into my voice.
He clenched the steering well with bone white knuckles, "I'm afraid I can't do that."
I started to jerk on the handle of the door, close to hyperventilating when it wouldn't open.
"Let me out!" I almost screamed, eyes wild.
"Sorry babe." He said, speeding up, "I have my orders."
I unbuckled my seat belt and started kicking at the windshield, hoping to pop out the glass so I could escape.
Mike merely sighed at my futile attempt and yanked harshly on one of my pigtails, causing me to cry out in pain and stopped moving.
He then forced me back into my seat and fastened something cold and metallic around my wrist and then his.
"You're not going anywhere." He said cheerfully, speeding up even more.
After a few minutes of forcing back tears and muffling hopeless sobs, I saw a black van appear in the distance. Mike slowed to a stop a few feet away from the vehicle and turned to me.
"Now," He began, unlocking my cuff, "You're going to be a real good girl for Mr. Brick or he's going to hurt you. Badly. Understood?"
I remained frozen until he shook me, "Understood?!"
I nodded frantically, wiping at my wet cheeks.
Mike smiled, "Good. Out you go."
There was a dull clicking of the car door unlocking and I exited on shaking legs.
Mike appeared by my side before I could even try to run.
"I've got one for you, Brick!" He called out to the van and the driver's door opened, a tall male fluidly hopping out and walking towards us.
"She's a beauty, Mikey." Brick stated, cupping my chin and making me to look up at him, "We'll make some good money for this little thing."
I forced myself not to look away or jerk away from is repulsive touch. I refused to look weak.
"It took a while for me to find a natural blonde." Mike said, twirling one of my pigtails in his fingers, "I hope this one's good enough for you."
Brick smirked, "Nah, I can't afford her. I've got a feeling we'll be getting some of the higher bidders out for Beauty, here."
He released my chin and I let out a breath I didn't realize I'd been holding in.
"My name's Bubbles." I snapped, before I could stop myself.
Brick back-handed me, no change in his expression, "And I say it's Beauty. Get in the fucking van, Beauty."
When I made no immediate movement, Brick grabbed me by the front of my tank-top and threw me into the van. I hit my head on the hard interior, causing me to black out.
'Worst. Date. Ever.' I thought before slipping away into unconsciousness.
