A/N: THIS SCENE WASN'T SUPOSSE TO BE THE WAY IT WAS! Just saying :] So I did this one shot because I think the way they left this scene was vague, and unfair, and just wrong. It should have been much more heartbreaking than it was and more tempting. So here it is my Sookie and Alcide one shot episode 3x08. Enjoy and review, feedback will help me get better!


"If I knew what was best for me, I would have fallen in love with someone like you." She said. Her words cut through me as a sudden feeling overwhelmed me. Desire. I had felt an instant connection to Sookie the first time we met and when I opened up to her that one time in my apartment. She was pretty incredible and it hurt me to separate from her, even if it was to help my family. I gulped and plastered a small smile on my face. Whether she could hear all this I don't know. Maybe being silent will force her to listen. So I quickly blurted out in calm, reassuring voice, "Back at you"

Her eyes were sad. An ache remained in my chest just thinking about her being sad. I didn't like it, not one bit. We embraced in a hug. Her skin was so soft and warm. She tightened her arms as she stood on her tip toes. I gently laughed stroking the bottom of her back with my oversized thumb. Sookie was first to pull away, although her face lingered by mine and for a couple of seconds I thought we were going to kiss. Her eyelashes fluttered as her eyes explored my face. She laughed once, bringing a hand up to my jaw line. "I don't know how you do it" I whispered. "After all he's put you through…" I shook my head. She smiled as if I were humouring her, revealing the cute gap between her to front teeth. "And after all Debbie's put you through?" She tilted her head whilst beholding the bitchy attitude she has. I shrugged, not realising my hands were now placed on her hips underneath her green t-shirt, but she didn't seem to mind. In fact her skin was glowing a shade of scarlet I had never seen before. Suddenly I had forgotten all about my sister's salon burning down. I had forgotten about Debbie and her dumb ass motives of killing Sookie, which made my stomach turn. All I could think of was her. Sookie. Right in front of me but so far away. Her hand remained on my cheek as she looked deeply in my eyes. We moved together, closer in decreasing the space between our bodies. I wanted her. I wanted every bit of her all over me. Eventually I could feel the warmness of her legs through my jeans and her free hand around my neck.

Our faces were inches apart. My heart raced and so did hers. Debbie had never had this effect on me, maybe when we were young and foolish but not now. Not when she chose vampire blood over me. In fact, the more I thought about it the more I noticed that what I want, what I need is right in front of me. Only that something needs another something. A something that wasn't me. Our foreheads leaned against each others and I shut my eyes. He rose lips separated as if she were about to kiss me. I wouldn't have minded, apart from the fact that we were friends. Maybe that's all we were supposed to be. Maybe we were just created to tempt each other, kind of like a test. A game. I for one had had enough of games in my life. "Drive safely" She whispered slipping her hand softly into mine. Her breathe tingling my skin as she spoke. I nodded. "I will" I kissed her tenderly on the cheek before the space grew between us. Our hands stayed locked together until we couldn't reach any further. She remained on the steps of her wrecked house as she watched me disappear. I watched in the rear view mirror of my car, as the dainty little figure with blonde hair faded.
