Ok so i wasn't happy with my other chapter i did for this story so i decided to re write it completely.
I hope you guys like the new changes, review and tel me what you think xx
Chapter One
I hated the graveyard shift, it was always so boring with the usual rednecks and their slutty girlfriends laughing at nothing and being obnoxious. My sister Sookie would never have this type of problem at Merlotte's which thankfully I would be working from tomorrow night; if I had to clean up another pile of spilled ketchup I was going to kill someone.
Saying goodnight to Marcy I let out a sigh of relief as I made my way over to my sisters who just had a beautiful baby boy with her husband John. It was strange to think a couple of years ago she had been hectic over a vampire called Bill Compton and the madness which came from being with a vampire. I was younger than my sister…well adopted sister I was taken in by Adele Stackhouse at the age of 5 Sookie was already 10 so even though there was the age gap we seemed to get on ok. Me and Jason on the other hand were two thieves alike, we would get into all types of trouble with Gran, one time I was almost caught stealing from Mr Forts bakery selection of cakes while Jason distracted him by asking him where do babies come from. Smiling to myself I continued down the bendy road until I finally saw the lights of Adele, now Sookies, house.
This was truly a place where I could feel like home, I can practically smell the fresh homemade apple pies and grounded coffee she used to make me when I was upset. Over the years with job commitments and balancing work with school it got harder for me to be around so when I heard the news of Adele's death everything kind of stopped around me until I finally came and visited her grave in the wee hours of the morning one September.
The front door to the house opened while I was still in the car, I saw Sookie balancing the bouncing baby in her arms while pointing to the stars. Me and Sookie looked nothing alike, we shouldn't really, while her hair was as light as the sun and a tanned yet fair complexion my hair was as dark as a ravens feathers and pale white skin which could easily reflect the skin of a vampires. Sookie was a natural mother I however was not, it wasn't that I hated children I just didn't really want them I couldn't stand the fact of being home 24 hours a day 7 days a week looking after something which would keep you up all night and wouldn't let me travel and concentrate of my studies.
Sookie waved frantically as she saw me step out from my black Sedan car, a present I rewarded myself after scoring a perfect A+ on my course work.
"Hello stranger" she hugged me tight and I chuckled as the baby reached for my hair and tugged
"Hi" Sookie still didn't look a day over 20 "how's this one treating you" I gestured to the baby and she rolled her eyes
"Just fine, John said he said rugby the other day but I said I don't think so" we chuckled on the front porch like no time had passed between us. Sookie, John and little Mike would be going on their first holiday for two weeks in Rome which I told her was a beautiful city and she would be better off staying near the Vatican as all the tour buses were there and she would save money on travelling.
"Anyway come in, your room is all made, are you ok in Grans room?" I nodded before she began to talk about her trip, I felt my phone buzz in my pocket and read the text
You and me need to go to this club in Shreveport
Emily was my oldest friend in Bon Temps, also a little bit of a trouble maker like me, we were kindred souls destined to meet
Now? it's 11:30 won't it be shutting?
It's a vampire bar dummy :-)
I rolled my eyes; of course she had to find a vampire bar
Give me 10 minutes then I'll pick you up x
Yayy
I took a blackmail picture of Sookie before I left; she was passed out on the couch with peanut butter sticking to the side of her mouth while drooling. The baby sleeping peacefully at her side.
Because this was a vampire bar I decided to wear black leather look leggings with my high heeled spike ankle boots which had a secret hidden knife, and my blue flimsy sleeveless top and a black leather jacket, my natural curly hair bounced around me as I applied dark eye shadow. Looking at myself I sometimes let my mind wonder to my birth parents. Did I look like them? If so did I look more like my mother or father? Shaking my head I zipped up my jacket before quietly locking the house and driving to meet my friend.
Entering the bar I shrugged my jacket off and placed it on the counter while Emily looked around the bar
"I want to try some True Blood, you want some?"
"Do I want to try something that tastes like blood but I actually isn't? I'm good thanks"
She grinned and orders 5 shots of Sambuca which I knew we would be regretting in the morning, while scanning the bar I set my eyes on a tall vampire sitting on a thrown, seriously? A throne he seemed perfectly at ease as he gazed across the customers like we were the underlings in his club which from a vampire perspective I was sure they thought we were underlings. The room was too hot so I tied my hair into a pony tail before grabbing one of the shots and gulping it down in one go, the familiar burn made me cringe as it was almost like a fire was beginning it my chest. The familiar taste of liquorish didn't help at all, I hated liquorish
"So I met someone, and he's here tonight" she looked guilt as she should be, Emily had this thing of meeting with guys which weren't good for her so she would bring me along to check them out. Not the best idea as I couldn't stand people in general "and he's not human"
I rubbed the bridge of my nose of bloody course he wasn't human.
"Emily I swear…"
A male roughly around 5'8 wrapped his arm around Emily, a gesture which was in my opinion rude and sent the message she's mine back the fuck off. Gritting my teeth I raised my eyebrows at her and she seemed to read my mind which caused her to look almost sheepish. You have got to be kidding me!
"I'm Garrett" he flashed me his fangs
He leered at me which made me punch his face; I wonder if you could actually knock a vampires fangs out? "you never told me you had delicious friend babe" I held back my gag as I observed his black leather pants, cliché, bright yellow canary silk top, eww, and lots of facial hair, I don't think so "and you are…"
"Disgusted" I smiled sweetly and grabbed my jacket, "I'm using the ladies, don't go anywhere"
Nodding she distracted his no doubt murderous gaze by ordering him a drink, urgh pig.
The bar was too crowded as I could feel my temper rise, if one more person bumped into me while they were grinding on someone else I was going to reach for the closest glass bottle and smash it over their heads. A man looking to be a serious A&As die-hard fan stepped in front of me as I was almost to the ladies
"Hey pretty thang"
"Thang?" I replied
He smirked "the names Dweight"
"Of course it is" sighing I maneuvered my jacket so it was placed in front of me
"Why don't you and the Dweight master leave this joint" he leaned his arm on my shoulder
"Ok one" I moved his arm off me already feeling my skin crawl "don't ever refer to yourself in the third person it doesn't make you look cool it actually makes you look like a jackass, two the 80s are long dead so throw out that tribute outfit for Adam and the Ants into the fire pit as soon as you possible can and three touch me again and I'm going to punch you in your big mouth, now move out of my way before I make good on my promise"
Eric POV
I observed the little breather who was currently ripping Dweight a new one, I hid my smirk behind my hand as I summoned Pam to my side she was a feisty little breather. Dweight was a young vampire roughly 115 years old and he still had the temper of a young infant I felt Pam come to my side as I spoke Swedish to her
"Make sure Dweight does no harm to her, I kind of like this one"
She scoffed "are we back on your humans again Eric?"
Rolling my eyes "I've told you this a thousand times me and Sookie were nothing, I just liked to play with Compton head"
To this day I could not understand Bill Compton suicide which was helped along by Miss Sookie Stackhouse, even though I didn't understand his fascinations with humans I would be thankful to Sookie for helping my maker Godric deal with his conflictions and not meeting his death. I spoke to Godric as often as I could according to Isabelle he was improving.
A smash brought me out of my thoughts as the little raven smashed a bottle of true blood over Dweights head
Sophia's POV
He popped his fangs out and was about to jump me but a woman with long blonde hair held his shoulder firm
"Now sugar we all know you shouldn't be fighting here" she grinned at him before raking her eyes over my form she muttered something under her breath before talking to him "have a bottle of true blood on us"
"Seems like he's already had his fill" I smirked causing him to growl, I felt a tug on my hand and I knew it was Emily
Dweight popped his fangs back in and grinned at the blonde woman "sounds fair to me" the smell of the drink which I spilled on him made me nearly gag in disgust.
I turned to the blonde woman but she was already gone, instead my eyes caught the blondes sitting on the throne, I couldn't really tell from here but I could swear he had light blue eyes, my ultimate kryptonite. Even though me and Sookie weren't related we both had special gifts - mine seemed to enhance over the years. The most basic and first gift I managed to control was seeing people's memories I could see in the blonds head a large beach with the water meeting the shore softly as he laughed along with a small child I could literally smell the sea salt. Snapping out of it the blond rubbed his forehead shit!
"Soph I don't feel well" turning to my friend I nodded and we walked out of the bar.
Emily seemed uneasy as we left the club her arm was wrapped around my neck as she struggled to even walk, I began to think that dickhead Garrett had laced her drink with something.
"Where you going chica?"
Turning with my friend till hanging onto my like a monkey I saw Dweight walk out with a stupid grin
"Look lover boy I don't have time for your bullshit"
Just before he was ready to pounce the blond man from inside held him by the throat
"Now, now Dwight you know the rules no feeding on the grounds"
The vampire retracted his fangs and backed away into the bar, well that was kind of pathetic. Blonde turned to me with a small yet condescending smile as if to say you're welcome. Emily dropped like dead weight onto the floor
"Emily" I tapped her cheek gently "Emily come on"
"It seems your friend can't handle her liquor"
Glaring up at him I held Emily's head between my hands "we weren't in there long you obnoxious giant that vampire she was with probably drugged her"
"Strong words" he rested his hands in his pant pockets "do you have any proof I don't want my establishment to deal with anything like that" his words were sarcastic you could tell by his very easy going attitude, god I hated him
He went to grab my friend who was still unconscious but I stopped him "what do you think you're doing?"
"Helping a damsel in distress" he gave me a cocky smirk "I think it'll be easier for me to carry her to your car"
Narrowing my eyes "try and run away with her I will personally shove a stake into you and it won't be in your chest"
"I like a woman who talks dirty"
I rolled my eyes and eyed him as he carried her to my car; he placed her gently into the back seat
"Should you ever find yourself in the Shreveport area again don't be a stranger"
"Thanks" I walked round to the driver's side but blonde held my hand which caused me to have a vision; I could hear whispers in the background, fire and blood, a grinning man in the centre of a stage. I wretched my hand from his grip and looked into his eyes they were narrowed as he hovered over me with a predatory stance "back off" I hissed
"What are you" he practically growled, concentrating my energy I slipped into his mind and gave him a nasty headache, hissing he grabbed his head but was still near me, he was old…very old I saw pictures of men in Viking armour, blonde was right beside them fighting multiple men. Finally the vampire backed off while holding his head, I quickly got into my car and drove away.
