A/N: I do apologise, you must be getting sick of me! A couple of people suggested writing something a little bit darker in terms of Eric/Pam at the end of Season 4 and XChaosLoverx mentioned something about the decomposing thing being a bit of a plot hole. What can I say? I was inspired.
If you're after something darker on both those points - this is for you! Hope you enjoy!

Eric returned from his three week long business trip feeling refreshed and almost completely at peace with the world.
He smiled at Sookie as he brought in the last of her bags, "I think I'll head over to Fangtasia to check on things and to see Pam, I'll be back later," he promised with a wink.
Eric strolled out the front door, before breaking into vampire speed.
He would never admit it but he was worried about Pam, in all the time he had been gone she'd only tried to contact him once. He knew that she must be angry with him for taking Sookie and leaving her behind, not to mention everything else that had happened, but he had hoped she would make more than one attempt.
It could only be an attempt because he had still been angry with her and had blocked their bond. As her Maker whenever she blocked their bond he could overcome it easily, should he chose to do so, but if he blocked their bond Pam could not break through it.
Not unless he allowed her too, which he hadn't the one time she had tried to reach him. Now, however, he had let go of most of his anger against his child: he would still have to punish her for her disobedience but he wasn't going to shut her out any longer.
That being the case he opened himself up to her, waiting for the familiar flood of her presence and emotions into his mind.
He was met with silence.
She wasn't blocking him but there still was nothing.
He couldn't feel her at all.
Eric quickened his pace, something was very wrong.
