She was newcomer. You can always tell a new one by their hesitant manner, eyes darting about, shame and desperation in every gesture. They can't believe they're actually doing this, but they're hooked and willing to do anything to keep from getting sick. She still had enough of her former self left to have nice hair and make the effort to wear makeup. Quite good looking, too.
I rolled up to her in the windowless beater van I keep for this purpose and after one last glance around for the police she hopped in. We rumbled away and I made the first right I came to in order to get us out from under the elevated train.
"What's your name?" I asked as though I cared.
"Monique." She was still looking into the rear view mirror, scanning for cops.
"That's pretty. Mine's Bob," I was lying. My name's not Bob, and Monique is a stupid fucking name.
"Um, what do you want, Bob?"
I reached over and jerked the front of her top up around her neck, taking her bra with it. Her tits bounced loose.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" She squealed.
"I have to make sure you're not a cop."
"Oh. Okay, I guess." She nervously redid herself. "So what do you want, anyway?"
"How about we go get a room?"
"Oh, uh, I can't. I have to meet someone."
"Does that mean you're not interested in this?" I produced a ziplock bag that contained a few small bags of heroin, and a clean needle. Her eyes glazed over.
"Can I do it now?" She all but begged.
"Yeah, but do it back there. I don't want the cops to see."
She crawled into the back and settled into a crappy old love seat I have in there. It was stained and threadbare but she settled back ito its envloping softness and began to let her guard down. I pulled the van into a dark parking lot. I went back with her to watch the show. She mixed up a baggy full with some bottled water I had and shot the whole load without cooking it. Her eyes rolled back in her head and she passed out. I handcuffed her with her hands behind her back and shoved her onto the floor. I fired up the van and drove to my place, a warehouse nearby that I had bought cheap because of the lousy neighborhood.

She woke to a very unpleasant situation. She was naked, save the handcuffs and in a small, concrete basement room whose only decor was a filthy toilet in the corner. I sat on a folding metal chair in front of the locked, steel door, cooly smoking a cigarette.
"Where am I? Let me go! You better let me go!" she whined.
I leapt from my chair and grabbed her by the throat. "SHUT THE FUCK UP!" I screamed into her now terrified face. I smacked her with the back of my hand and bloodied her nose. It made a wonderful-sounding "CRACK!" that reverberated off the hard walls. I spat into her face for good measure.
