Theo Pierce's POV

Hesitantly she replies, "Sure."

My face lit up at that one word. Yes! She said yes!

No no no, she said 'sure.' There is a total difference.

Don't be a buzzkill. I deadpanned.

Blocking him out, I shrug it off. She said 'sure,' and that's close enough for me. I'll be sure to plan it all carefully and make sure that she's has the most wonderful first date with me.

"I'll be back, in the meantime Tyler will come and get you."

Leaving her with a very confused expression, I start dialing my back up.

Mercy Avery's POV

Tyler?! Who's Tyler and why is he coming to get me?

After Theo left I sat down in the bed in a daze. Did I really just agree to go on a date with my kidnapper? What is wrong with me? Have I gone mad?

Lost in my own thoughts, I don't even notice when the door barges open and there stands a girl.

"Hey, I'm Tyler-in the flesh." She states, dramatically bowing.

"Hey! I'm Mercy."

"Oh, I know all about you! Time to get you ready for your date."

The evening went by in a blur. I hardly remember even standing up but right now I'm looking at a reflection of myself.

      Tyler gave me everything that I was wearing. First she dressed me in a plain grey t-shirt, next a brown leather jacket, finally a black short skirt, and wrapping up the outfit, black high heels.

      I just stood there staring at myself. The girl standing before me couldn't have been me. She was so pretty, while I on the other hand am hideous.

      "OMG!! Girlie you look FABULOUS!" Ty squealed out.

      "Uhm. . . no I don't stop being nice to me." I say looking down, embarrassed.

      "Girlie, don't do that to yourself, you're gorgeous! Wait until Theo sees you, he won't be able to keep his hands off you."

      I blushed, even though I didn't know what she meant by him not being able to keep his hands off me, he just had to move his hands back away from, not that hard, right?

      Too lost in my own thoughts I didn't even notice that Ty put an envelope in my hands until she snapped her fingers in front of my face.

      "Here you go, girlie. Have fun!" She said, grinning like Cheshire Cat, whilst softly nudging me out of her room and into the hallway.

      Opening the envelope it read,

      Dear Mercy,
          I know that whatever you are wearing you will look absolutely stunning in. There is a limousine waiting for you outside. Walk down the stairs and open the door, there you'll find a limousine. I'll be waiting for you my love. Until our date my little mate!
                      Sincerely,
                                        Theo Pierce

      My jaw was hanging wide open. I couldn't believe what he wrote in there. I blushed but then realized he was only saying it to be nice.
