"The Leaving Song" by AFI
Walked away, heard them say
"Poisoned hearts will never change, walk away again."
Turned away in disgrace
Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within
It's hard to notice gleaming from the sky
When you're staring at the cracks
It's hard to notice what is passing by with eyes lowered
You… walked away, heard them say
"Poisoned hearts will never change walk away again"
All the cracks, they lead right to me
And all the cracks will crawl right through me
All the cracks, they lead right to me
And all the cracks will crawl right through me, and I fell apart
As I… walked away heard them say
"Poisoned hearts will never change"
Walked away again
Turned away in disgrace
Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within
Chapter 1
Godric pov
I am sit the sitting room of my suite going over the nights events. Once again the humans acted just like I thought they would. I am disappointed by this. It seemed mister Nostradamus was right about our evolution and we have a long time to go. I don't see myself as human, or vampire for that matter. I identify as formally human. It had been my mission since meeting him to prove him wrong that we could change. He wanted that as well. Sadly it seemed we both had failed tonight. I realize that I will have to change my approach to this issue.
I was brought out of my inner thoughts by the sound an urgent knock and a frantic heart beat. I cocked my head to the side and blinked a few times. I wasn't expecting any company since Eric my child made me eat already. I got up and walked barefooted across the room to the door and found Jason Stackhouse on the other side very worried. He was looking side to side and pensive as he knew something was wrong. So waited for him to speak.
Jason took a deep breath and threw his shocking request at me leaving me temporarily stunned, "Look I don't hate all vamps I just met a few really bad ones as a kid. So I didn't mean to insult you early if I had. Right now my only concern is my sister. I got this really bad feeling this she needs saving. Bill left for back home and her things are still here. I know I can trust you. I will owe you for the rest of my life. A Stackhouse always repays his debts. Please find her, please."
I collected myself and nodded to him and went pasted him to her room. There I smelt the fading smell of her. She hadn't been for awhile and Mr. Compton left after she did. Jason was right he left her things and only took his own. I turned and followed her sent down the hall away from the main exit of the hall and to the back stairs leading up to the roof. As I followed the scent I could smell the bitter sadness the was snuffing out her beautiful scent of spring flowers. I went up the steps and open the door it was an hour before dawn so I had time yet.
As I came up the step and saw the helicopter pad I could see her standing on the ledge of the building looking down. I froze when I saw the bruises the stained her whole body. Mr. Compton seemed to be a woman beater. Something I hate just as greatly as rapist. I slowly walked to her knowing she could jump. I wanted her to choose not to die not that I forced her to live. When I got three feet from her she turned around to face me.
My jaw tightened in rage. Her beautiful face was discolored with one eye shut and a bust lip and bruised cheeks with finger marks around her neck. How could I had nit heard that unless the room was sound proof. She had bruises all along her arms as well. Her sun dress was ripped and torn. She could have died by the looks of the damage done. Tears came down her face.
She spoke softly through a broken jaw and said, "You saw that I didn't sleep with Gabe. That he Raped me. You saved me, you did not sleep with me either. I did not drink any other vampires blood on purpose to leave Bill Compton. Then why did he not stop hitting me and listen to me. His jealousy is killing me. I can live this way."
"I will not let him have you I swear it Sookie. Please come back here. Let me take care of you." I asked hoping it would be that easy.
She shook her head and griped it in pain and screamed in agony. She cried out, "The thoughts these voice will not stop. I hear everyone now. It hurts God it hurts. I have s to stop this. No more."
I knew right then that she was like him my friend in France long ago. I knew how to help if she would let me. I said to Sookie, "Please little one let me help you. I know what is wrong."
Sookie shook her head and said, "No, no gets to get near me. It only brings pain."
"Little one please, have you every known me to lie to you of all people." I said as she let me get closer to her and I reached for her hand. Sookie let me take her smaller hands into my mine. She looked into my eyes and I could see the pain her stormy blue eye. I could she was searching my own for the answer she was afraid to trust which came out of my mouth. Maybe she was reading me, that was fine, as long as she saw the virtue of feelings for her. I knew she was special not just her scent. I smelt that before it doesn't effect me now. No, it's something I can't place my thoughts upon just yet. The answer alludes me at the moment.
"You are so clam. No racing thoughts. No contradicting thoughts. What you say is what you truly feel. Why would two thousand year old vampire want to save a twenty something year barmaid telepath from a small town in Louisiana?" Sookie said no quiet giving in to me just yet. And, time was wearing thin I could feel it.
"I only know that letting you die like this does not sit well with me. I am not a possessive vampire yet I find that I need to take care of you. sadness does not suite you. I like the smell of spring flowers that you emit. I find it sooths me. Selfishly I do not want that to end by your light fading away." I told her as honestly as I could form the shapeless thoughts I harbor for her into tangible feelings she could understand.
"Ok."
"Excuse me?" I asked surprised by her sudden change of heart.
"I believe you. I will come back inside. Just don't make me go back to that room. I don't want to remember." Sookie told me still broken inside as I slowly pulled her to my side and walked he back into the hotel. I knew what I would do. I would keep her with me and have her things brought to my room. I knew my child, Eric, would handle all matters for me. My feelings would be his as a matter of his Viking honor to protect not only my honor but those deem dear to me. Mr. Compton who surely disappear soon, but I shielded that from Sookie.
As I came near my suite the hotel maid stopped me and said, "Godric sir, there were items left in one of your guest rooms. The man check out and left them behind. We collected them thinking you might know who they belong to."
"I see. Well it seem Mr. Compton left no instruction on what do with Miss Stackhouse here. Well, she will stay with me. Send all of her things to my suite understood." I told the maid and I saw Sookie's visible flinch at the idea of being abandoned. The varmint never told her. The coward.
Sookie looked up at me for answers and I shook my head and lead her inside to discuss this privately. She didn't fight me and let me guide her inside with my hand on the small of her back as I stepped in behind her and closed the door. She seem lost for a moment before she found the couch and sat down slowly. I kept my eye on her as I went to the wet bar to get her a drink. I remember what she drank and made her a gin and tonic. I walk over to her handing her the drink and I sat down next to her.
She took a drink and stared off into the distance before speaking to me, "He left and didn't even tell me. I dumped me and never ever bother to tell me. I was a fool. What was I thinking?"
She spoke as though she broke through a fog. It gave me an idea what happened. So I asked her to confirm my suspicions, "Did he ever give you his blood at any time? Think carefully even the smallest amount I need to know?"
"Come to think of it yeah. He said I was attacked I don't remember, but he gave me some of his blood, why?" Sookie answered and then took a drink.
"He forced a bond upon you made. It makes you mirror his emotions and thoughts. If controlled he could control you. He bonded with. Basically claiming as his mate but not giving you mated status. Claiming make you a slave and second class citizens." I told her and saw she started to cry. I took the drink out of her hand and set it upon the table. I pulled her against me and rubbed her back slowly. I said to her gently, "I can free you from the bond and heal you. I will only claim you in name after healing you I will not force myself upon you or make consume my blood again if you do not want to. But I cannot let you stay injured like this. Will you allow me this one request little one?"
She looked at me and I watch the emotions flash across her face before he relent and nodded to me in acceptance. I acted quickly before she changed her mind, knowing how women can be, and bit into my wrist. It was curious to see her flinch at me biting myself. Just compassion I saw in her there. I took in a shuddering breath as I felt her soft mouth close over my hand. I did not expect that, why I do not know. Maybe it had to do with the fact I had not allowed myself to be touched in a long time. I was satisfied when her held healed and watched as my power left a glow on her skin. Unfortunately my child choose then to interrupt us by entering my room and gasping out, "Who hurt her master?"
