Feeling Good - Muse

Birds flying high you know how I feel

Sun in the sky you know how I feel

Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel

It's a new dawn

It's a new day

It's a new life

For me

And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel

River running free you know how I feel

Blossom in the trees you know how I feel

It's a new dawn

It's a new day

It's a new life

For me

And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, do you know

Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean

Sleep in peace when day is done

And this old world is a new world

And a bold world

For me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel

Scent of the pine you know how I feel

Oh freedom is mine

And you know how I feel

It's a new dawn

It's a new day

It's a new life

For me

And I'm feeling good


I look over the lake in the back of Eric's yard as the sun is setting reflecting over the aftermath of the fairy civil war that tore, ripped, stabbed, mutilated and abused my body. That left my emotions in such a delicate state. Barely able to make sense of who, what, why and how this all effected me had Eric bring me to his house to recuperate. We had many many talks and not all of them were easy for either of us. Why wasn't he with Niall and Bill? Why didn't I trust in him and go to his house like he asked? What does our marriage mean to him? Why didn't he ask me to marry him? What do I want of our marriage? What does this all have to do with our bond? So many questions on both of our sides, we finally came together to give each other the answers that we both needed in order to heal and move forward in our relationship.

All of the answers seemed to boil down to our love for each other. His love for me left him vulnerable to Victor and Filipe, they did not allowing him to come to me. My love for him left me not wanting to take advantage of him and going to his house. His love for me in not only protecting me from any and all vampires let him be high handed in not asking me to marry him. His love is all I truly wanted from our marriage. And lastly our bond, our beautiful bond which makes it possible for us able to easily feel the love flow between us, what an incredible feeling our love is.

Healing from Thing One and Thing Two I decided that I want to be with my Viking Vampire. Not just today or tomorrow but for eternity, my love needs to be there for him like his needs to be there for me. So today is my last day as a human/fairy hybrid, in three nights time I will be a vampire/fairy hybrid. The good lord knows what kind of trouble this will bring for us, but one thing is for sure; today I feel good which my husband is waking up feeling. He will come to me as soon as the sun slips into the horizon and this will be the last time we will be separated because of the sun. This will be our new day our new life and I'm feeling good.


A/N: This is my first Song Fiction and my first Eric & Sookie story! This story takes place after Dead and Gone, after that it does not follow canon.

I make no dollars or cents for this, the characters all belong to Charline. The song has had many sing it; I thought the version done my Muse was fitting for this fic.
