hi there this is my first fanfic please review i dont mind if it is nice or constructive criticism just let me know if you want me to carry on
Chapter 1
as I sit here on the cold tiled floor and look back over the last 9 years I think to myself had what I did all been worth it (probably not) but when life gives you lemons you have to make lemonade well my lemonade was a little bitter for my taste but who am I to judge here is my story
my name is sookie Stackhouse I was a telepathic barmaid from bon temps Louisiana yes you heard me right I am telepathic my gran had died 5 years ago I loved her so much it hurts even now to think of her, she was my rock and my best friend
my parents died and my brother died when I was 7 so gran took me in and cared for me like I was her daughter and she taught me how to stick up for myself almost to the point of being stubborn, lets just say that she raised me well.
I worked in a bar and grill called merlottes since the age of 18 and made my way up to head waitress by the age of 21, of course I used my curse to get ahead in the game who wouldn't take advantage of that but to be honest it was more of a curse than a skill.
But maybe that was my down fall maybe I shouldn't have used it so openly then I wouldn't have been noticed by the wrong type of people. It was 3 days after my 21st birthday that a man came into the bar he was different and constantly stared at me from the moment I served him his first red wine, he was putting me on edge so I told Sam my boss that I was going to take the rest of the night off and I went outside to get into my car but before I knew it the man was in front of me, I was shocked at first and wanted to know how he got there so quickly but I wasn't raised to be rude so I didn't ask (oh how I should have asked ) he extended his hand to me and told me his name.
"Hello pleased to make your acquaintance I'm bill Compton "
"Nice to meet you I'm sookie Stackhouse"
"A young girl like yourself should not be allowed to venture out this late at night" he said with a grin
I tried to peer into his mind to see what his intentions were just in case I needed to run but I found that I couldn't. that unsettled me so I used my politest voice and said
"Well I'm just on my way home after finishing a shift so I wont be out for long anyway Mr. Compton I was nice meeting you" hoping he would take the hint
he watched me get into my car and drive away I was looking in my rear view mirror at him one minute and the next moment he was gone
"well that was weird" I thought to myself but I paid no mind to that thought as I pulled into hummingbird road and parked outside grans house, it wasn't late so I decided to watch my new Buffy the vampire slayer DVD box set that gran had gotten me I had watched the show since I was 14 and I was in love with the big blond vampire named spike (he had featured in so many of my dreams as a teen), I remember.
As you can guess hearing what people are thinking all the time does not let you date very often and when you do there is no bigger turn off to hear what your date was thinking well as you can guess I was a virgin and the fictional spike was the only man ever to permeate my dreams.

what an intriguing woman, she was smelled delicious and I will bet that she tasted that way too, I would have to watch this one more closely as I could not glamour her I tried repeatedly last night but to no avail I would have to find out why I decided to contact my sheriff for more advice I would not contact him tonight as it was nearing dawn and I needed to feed, well tomorrow was another day

I fell asleep through the fourth episode and woke up when the sun was shining in my face gran must have thrown a blanket over me during the night because I woke up under it to the smell of coffee and toast permeating the kitchen, I slowly dragged myself off of the couch and made my way groggily to the kitchen where I was greeted by my gran, I sat down and started on the first cup of the day, ( did I mention that I am a coffee whore), anyway we chatted about daily life and then the subject came around to last night and the mysterious Mr. Compton I told gran that he was the first person that I could not hear and she said that that must have been a welcome break, I agreed and I noticed that she was right after a lifetime if hearing everyone not hearing someone was intriguing, I was doing the late shift tonight and I decided to do some sunbathing for the rest of the day so I went upstairs to find my bikini and towel once in the garden I lay down and started to soak up the sun .
I must have fallen asleep because the next thing I know I am waking up hearing voices in the kitchen it sounded like gran and an older gentleman in there with her I wrapped myself in my towel and went upstairs to change when I came downstairs I over heard the tail end of a conversation between my gran and the gentleman
"But you promised that she would be ok if she was sent here to live that she would be safe"
"But her spark is growing stronger I can see it in her now" said the gentleman
"So take her with you to keep her safe I could not bare it if something were to happen to her" gran said
"She would not be safe even there, there are forces moving against us now, and do you think that she would just go willingly she is just like you Adele so head strong and willful we would be just like them taking her into captivity at least here she has a choice weather to get involved or not"
"I just hope that she makes the right decision" gran said with sorrow in her voice
"Me too Adele, me too"
And with that I heard an audible pop and there were no more voices I walked down the stairs to find gran with tears in her eyes drying them with her handkerchief I asked gran what was wrong and she told me that she was just listening to her stories on the radio and one of them had made her upset, I asked her what it was about and she told me that it was about a young girl that was in love and was told that she could not stay in her country because she was not safe.
It was almost time for me to get ready for my shift I got dressed and kissed gran good bye assuring her that I would eat at the bar, I made my way to the bar and started my shift most of the evening was pretty uneventful, apart from catfish running his mouth off about never having enough staff but other that that nothing happened so I went home another usual day in the life if sookie Stackhouse.

I was sitting in my office in fangtasia going over my paper work for the area and I get a phone call from one of my underlings, bill Compton (what a weak vampire if ever I saw one ) he proceeded to tell me that there was a girl that he found that he could not glamour, that was a surprise I had only ever met one other in my entire existence that could not be glamoured and she was a psychic, I never said any of this to that idiot bill, I just told him to keep away as It might be a witch and I decided to go and see for myself , what this intriguing creature was.

That was the occurrence for the next few days until the my last late shift before my day off I was just filling an order for ice tea and onion rings and I looked over to my section and there was a blond man just walking into my section, he was very tall and walked with an air of confidence he was dream from behind (I say behind but wow what a backside ) I wondered what he looks like from the front, well he was in my section so off to work I go (oh yum), I walked over to him and asked what he wanted, he turned to look at me and I got lost in his eyes, they were like still pools of azure blue water I could get lost in those eyes in fact I did, felt like a fool when he called me back to reality by asking for his drink a second time with a knowing grin on his face,
"I will be right back with your order sir"
I walked away feeling like a fool, I prepared his red wine and put it on my tray and walked back to him setting his drink down on the table, for a moment my head felt tingly but then it was gone as soon as it came, laffyette called me over under the guise of filling my other orders but in reality wanting to talk to me about the hot guy I had just served, laffy had been openly gay since he was 14 and us girls just accepted that we all went to school together and laffy was always the one that protected me when I would get bullied because of my curse, he was always there but punch out anyone who would openly tease me, I loved him very much for that.
Anyway I walked over to the kitchen to talk to him, he was eye fucking the customer I had just served for all he was worth,
"Damn girl that is one fine piece of ass, that guy needs some sausage between those buns there "
I just stood there in front of him getting a live stream of what he wanted to do to him, I pulled my shields up as fast as I could before it got anymore graphic, and asked him what he wanted as if I didn't already know.
Laffy was telling me how I should jump on that before dawn got her claws in.
Why would I jump on anything laffy you know I cant because of this damn curse I have I don't want to hear what he is thinking when or if we ever get to anything.
I walked away in a huff, mentally arguing with myself weather I should go back my heart was telling me to apologize to him for being rude to him but my head was telling me to just carry on working and sort it out later well what can I say my head won over.
After about an hour I felt the same tingling on my head and just as before it went away again, I must be coming down with something I thought.
Not long after that Mr. Tall and blonde was looking at me with some confusion on his face I shrugged it off as he was looking past me and went on with working he left leaving a big tip for yours truly.
When I say a big tip I mean a big tip wow he had left me 300 dollars in the tip alone and he had only ordered a glass of wine, I thought that was way too much so I picked up the cash and ran outside after him, he was standing outside the bar I ran straight into him a hard wall of pure muscle, and fell straight on my butt, he offered me a hand and I took it gratefully once I was standing I looked into his eyes and told him straight that the tip was not appropriate, but he cut me off saying that he could give me another 100 or so if I wished, I stopped him right there telling him that it was too much and tried to give some back but he flat out refused and told me I had served him well and to accept the tip he also said
"Besides now you have a reason to remember me now"
"I assure you sir that's not all I will remember you by" I said and realized how bad that sounded as soon as it came out of my mouth
A slight grin tugged at the corners of his mouth
"I'm Eric Northman" he said
"Sookie Stackhouse"
"Well Miss Stackhouse so very nice to meet you be rest assured I will remember you too" with that he kissed my hand and walk off to his car leaving me staring at his fine backside.

As I left the establishment I hesitated outside the front entrance wondering weather to go back in and talk to her, by the gods I was 1000 plus years so old I had stopped counting and I was acting like a pre pubescent teen just as I was about to walk back in the one woman I was thinking about was on her backside in front of me, I offered her me hand she took it and then proceeded to tell me that the tip I had given her was no appropriate I thought to myself that the tip I had left her was more than adequate but not to be rude I offered her more, but she looked more exasperated that when she started and tried to shove a few bills back in my hand I flat out refused telling her that she had served me well and that she should accepted the tip as I thought her southern manners dictated she would not argue back.
I told her that she would have a reason to remember me by now, she told me that, that was the not the only thing that she would remember me by and then she blushed the most beautiful shade of pink I could smell her blood so close to her skin she smelled intoxicating, I introduced myself and she in kind but with that I had to leave her scent was so inviting I was not sure I could control myself I kissed her hand for one last sniff and walked my way to my car.
On my drive back to Shreveport I had some time to think, when I kissed her hand I smelled a faint trace of fairy but I could not be sure to be sure I had to taste her, but that would take work on my part without glamour, but hey I liked a challenge.
