"Lover, what a pleasant surprise, I was just coming to meet you" Eric said with a smile from behind his desk at Fangtasia as Sookie walked through the door into his office. Sookie didn't know how else to say it so she just blurted it out. "Eric, I'm pregnant" Eric stared at her. "That's Impossible..."
A Few Hours Earlier...
When the high schooler's at Merlotte's stared talking about periods today it just kind of hit Sookie. She remembered hearing the words period and late in a sentence as she took their order. "Sookie.. Sookie!" Sookie shook her head and snapped out of it. "Hmm what?" She murmured. "Uhhh are you gonna give me the order or not?" Lafayette said giving her a look. "Uh huh" was all she managed to reply as she handed Lafayette the order slips and walked a way kind of in a trance. "Sam" Sookie said. "Yeah?" Sam said from behind the bar. "I'm taking my break." She said as she went out back. Sookie quickly got out her cell phone and called Tara. Tara picked up after a few rings. "Sook, do you know what time it isss? Do you want me to get the bleeds?" Came Tara's voice on the other line. "Sss Sorry Tar just need to ask you a question is all." Sookie stammered. "Sook, you ok?" Tara said, sounding a little concerned. "Yeah I' find, just need a little reassurance is all." Sookie said. "Okay.. shoot" Tara said. "Vampires can't have children right? Like they can't get people pregnant?" Sookie said into the phone. She heard Tara laugh. "Hell no, And it's a great thing, fucking with no rubbers." Tara laughed again. Sookie remained silent for a moment. "You sure?" She said. Tara's laughter faded. "Yeah.. Sook.. you okay?" Sookie forced herself to smile even though no one was around. "Yeah sweetie, I'm good" Sookie gave a little laugh. "Okayyy..." Tara said, "Hey girl I gotta go. Apparently I just woke Pam up and she went all As you maker I command you to get off the damn phone so I gotta go.. Talk later?" "Yeah, of course" Sookie said and hung up. She was hyper ventilating now. I'm not pregnant, I'm not pregnant, Sookie said to herself over and over again. But she felt something inside that told her that wasn't true. She was at least a month late. She normally paid attention to that stuff but ever since vampires can into her life she did keep track as throughly anymore because she though there was no need. This was Impossible. But why did that though feel so wrong? Sookie finished out the remaining hours of her shift before driving to a drug store. She wanted to put this irrational fear to bed. She picked up a few pregnancy tests and headed to the counter to pay. "Miss. Stackhouse, buying pregnancy testes for your brother again?" The clerk says. "Uh no, He's settled down with a real nice girl named Jessica. These... are for a friend." Sookie said. "Jessica the vampire? What is it with you Stackhouses?" The clerk said with a laugh. Sookie gave a nervous laugh back before exiting the store. She drove home as fast as she could. This is Impossible Sookie kept thinking the whole drive home until her arrival. She quickly went inside. The sun was just going down and Eric would be over soon. She wanted to have answers before he got here. She took all five tests. They all came back with the same results. Pregnant. Sookie wanted to faint. The Impossible was happening. Sookie began pacing about the room. Thoughts racing through her mind. I can't belive this is happening. Can I even raise a child? What am I going to tell Jason? What am I gonna tell everybody? What are they gonna say? *Big Gasp* What's Eric gonna say? We've only been together for a few month. Ahhhhhhhh! Sookie took a deep breath. She marched over to her mirror and said it a few times just to make it real. "I'm pregnant, I'm pregnant, I'm pregnant." Gran give me strength Sookie thought up to heaven. She needed to see Eric NOW. She had to tell him. Never mind that he would be over here in an hour to be with her, she couldn't wait. Sookie jumped into her car and drove to Fangtasia.
