I looked down at the application i had filled out for Sam Merlotte a little while ago. The first line said Nyght which is what i put down as my name... ok well it's not really that but everyone calls me that. No one except me knows my real name and i like it that way. I don't know i guess i'm just strange that way.
Sam didn't seem to care about that. Figured i had a reason for going by a different name, as far as i know i don't. I've just always liked the night time. Every since i was little i was interested in the dark but i was never allowed outside but that could be my living situation was different than the others here.
I had a reason for being outside tonight though, actually i've been out a lot since i met Sookie Stackhouse. She took me in when i first came here almost two years ago, just took me off the street. Eh well i never said she was smart all of the time, good thing for her is that i'm not a sycotic murder.
I was 14 when i moved in to the Stackhouse place, was pretty much adopted by them as family. Though they learned quickly that yes i would tell them where i was going but i like to be on the move so... yeah i'm not going to sit inside all day and do nothing. I like to explore. Could be why i made a habit that had me walking to Shreveport and back to Bon Temps almost every day.
...It was hard on me when Gran was murdered. I depended on her a lot. Both Sookie and I did... Worse that i had been so close, i could have done something... but i decided to go out and i left her alone. She died because i wasn't there to protect her...
I wiped away the tears that had formed in my eyes and looked at my reflection in the mirror. I was pretty curvy for a 16 year old, I left my hair down so it was a little past my shoulder blades. My blue eyes were clouded with sadness. I was dressed in the merlottes uniform of course i mean i was at work right now.
Speaking of work i need to return to it. I put the application away, tucking my blond hair with natural light blue highlights behind my right ear, as i joined the other waitresses. I saw my friend Sparrow serving a customer. Her real name was actually Summer Rose but i started calling her Sparrow when she told me that it was her favorite animal. The nickname just kind of stuck after that.
I didn't have time to see what was up till our break sooo guess i better start working. The night passed without anyone causing problems. Well except for Sparrows boyfriend. He showed up to visit her... supposedly and then he had the nerve to stare at every woman he deemed good looking. Obviously it upset her and made her think he was cheating so she asked me to check it out. I agreed, which lead me to where i was now. His house.
I looked threw the window, spying on the cheater who dared to call himself in love. He didn't love Sparrow. I could see that easily by the way he was sucking on that tramps breast. I jumped out of the tree and ran off. "He's cheating ain't he?" She said when i called her just as i was out of sight.
"Yes. You want to get even?" I heard her sniffle, she really loved Evan and he went and did this to her. "No Nyght... i just want to get this over with." I'm going to make sure that bastard suffers for this! She may not want me to do anything but that went against my nature.
"I'll call you later." I said and hung up the last thing i heard was her yelling don't. Yea she knew what i was capable of and she knew me to well. I pushed off from the ground and jumped in to the trees, traveling with some cover not like i really cared. Stopping in front of the window.
That damn bastard was still at it... to bad i never had any patience for him. I blew hard between my lips causing a sharp note that shattered the glass. Evan jumped up from the girl and looked at me just as i slipped in to the room. "I should have never allowed you near Sparrow... you bastard!"
I suppose i didn't have a right to be upset with the human... except my kind loved forever so it infuriated me when men like this guy did this to women that truely love them. "Nyght!" I nodded. "Unfortunately for you... it is i." With that i flicked my wrist.
The power to control the water was amazing thing to bad he wasn't going to get to see the good side of it. The water from the glass in the woman with enough force to her head that she was knocked out. "W-what!" He yelled.
"I'm what you humans would refer to as a freak, a monster. I don't mind being called either. You claimed you loved her, you lied. My kind would never attempt to do what you have done. Your the true monster in my eyes." He would suffer for his choice, but i would not kill him.
Just scare him and then convince him he had a nitemare... for the woman she didn't see me much anyway's me in the dark and all. I raised my hands and threw them out towards him. Watching at the water obeyed my will and smothered the bastard, i pulled it away before he passed out.
Evan dropped the ground, gasping for air. "Tell me... what do you know of Sparrows feelings? Or did it not occure to you that they were true?" He made a pathetic attempt to crawl to the door, it was stopped with another flick of my wrist.
"End it." He said weakly. Fine but not for you... for Sparrow. I controlled the water to surround him, dropping his passed out form on top of the bed. I don't care how you wake up... but do not go running back to Sparrow. I will really make you suffer then.
I jumped out of the window landing easily on my feet and started walking towards Bon Temps. Didn't really matter where i went though, though i probally shouldn't be outside at night. Eh oh well.
Pulling out my cell phone i dialed Sparrows number. She answered on the first ring. "What did you do to him?" She asked quickly. "Just scared him and knocked him out. He'll think he had a nitemare. I should have done worse." She sighed in both relief and frustrasion. "What you did was enough."
"Ok. I'm going to go home now. He's safe, i won't go after him again... as long as he doesn't hurt you." I promised. "Thanks Nyght." "Yup, i'll call you later. Shifter boy won't want us being late for work so i'll cya soon." Yeah are dear friend Sammy wouldn't like it if we missed worked later.
Once i got back i grinned. "SOOKIE! BEEL!" I loved messing with him, mocking his accent it was just fun. He walked out of the room without a shirt on. "Do you mind?" I raised my hands in front of my face to block him from view. "Sorry for... interupting. I'll just go to see how Jessica is doing!" I ran out of the house after that.
Ugh! How she likes him i will never know! I ran to Bill's and pushed open the door. "Anyone here?" I heard a muffeled yup before Jessica was in front of me. "Sup Nyght?" I smiled. "Running from the the major eww factor going on at Sook's." She shook her head. "This is like the 10th time this week."
Geez you think? "Can i crash here?" She nodded. "Yup. Figured you were coming when he said he was going to see Sookie. Just don't sleep on the couch or in the guest room, they've fucked there and it smells... HEY! We should go to Fangtasia tonight!"
"...I'm underaged Jess." I love that excuse, it keeps me away from Eric. "I've already talked to Pam, she'll let you in." Jessica smiled. I wanted to hit her. I mean come on! I don't want to go there and how would we get there anyway without a car! "Sookie will kill me." and she will... cheerfully with the crazy Sookie smile in place.
"Not if she doesn't know about it." She smirked and just like that i was picked up. "I don't want to go!" I yelled past the air but it was no use she wanted to and she knew that i didn't really have a choice. Damn vampire!
She stopped... in front of Fangtasia and put me on my feet only to drag me to the door and past Pam who smirked at us. Keep smirking... someday i'll- I was caught by surprise when Jessica squeiled very loudly someones name. I couldn't catch it all i know is i was dragged fast to the throne and nearly fell over when she stopped.
She smiled at me like she just didn't do something wrong. "Explain to me why i should go home?" I said annoyed. "Because Bill and Sookie-" "Ok! and just when i managed to forget that to." She laughed at me and looked back at Eric. Who was smirking at me.
"You don't like me very much." It wasn't a question. "Of course i like people that are full of themselves." I told him sarcastically and rolled my eyes. He chuckled. "Your only alive because your Sookie's adopted sister."
"Yeah ok." I looked at Jess. "How long are you planning on staying here? Sook is probally going to call me soon." Expessially since i should have been home by now. Well i did go home but... yea... so she can't yell at me. "Godric this is Nyght, Sookie's baby sister." He loved calling me a baby. I just wanted to stake him. I noticed a average height dark brown hair blue grey eyes guy standing somewhat hidden behind the throne.
He didn't even move but Eric said. "Nyght is not her real name. No one knows it. She has refused to give it." I rolled my eyes when i caught the hint. "You haven't proved i can trust you. Besides it's my choice and why would i tell you something that Sookie and Jason don't even know?"
"Your life may depend on it." I sighed. "Stop threatening something you know you'll never do in fear of loosing Sook and start ripping Bill apart because seriously thats just gross." I shivered. Walking in on them once... and well lets just say i stayed with Jason for a couple of weeks.
"Is he really that bad?" Eric asked amused by my reaction. Godric was to but Jessica understood having been in my position. "If you want to know so bad find out yourself. Cause i refuse to relive that."
"NYGHT!" I flintched... that was the voice of a very pissed off Sookie. "JESSICA!" We both took steps backwards. We might as well have cowered from them. "Was this a good idea now?" I asked Jess. "Guess i should listen to you more." She laughed. "This is not a joke." Bill growled. "We wouldn't have come here if you would stop fucking my sister every damn time you see her." I told him and shivered against my will.
"Nyght!" Sookie snapped because of my cursing, though she was red with embarassment. "Why did you come here?" Bill asked, he looked suspicious. I noticed a slight movement in his position like he was ready to defend himself and it annoyed me. His eyes flickered to Pam, Eric, and Godric.
"For the love of God Bill we came here to have fun and get out of the house!" Jessica snapped at him. "Can we handle this situation like adults instead of screaming like teenagers?" Sookie asked as i started to get a headache. "The difference is, we are the adults and you two are the children. Get in the car."
"Funny part is i didn't want to stay let alone come here in till you showed up and started the father shit. Your not my father! You have know control over my actions. Back off!" I took a step forward and glared at him. "Vampires take that as a challege." He told me. "Not a good idea, step back Nyght."
"He may not but i do. We're going home." Sookie grabbed my arm and slapped Bill on his head. "I don't give a shit if she challeges you or not. Your out of line." She walked off then. "Eric requests you presence." Pam said to Sookie. She shook her head in annoyance and sighed. We both knew she didn't have a choice if she wanted to be left alone.
She returned to Eric. I noticed the smirk and couldn't help it i smiled. He was going to mess with Bill. "Compton aren't you the vampire? Yet... Sookie controls you." Bill growled. "I am curious Sookie. How do you do that?" I laughed and she glared at me.
"Eric if your bored use one of the fangbangers as your amusement. Leave us out of it. How things are done in our relationship is none of your business. I will get one thing straight though. I do not control Bill but he can not see my sister's actions as a challenge. I've seen what vampires are capable of and do not wish anything to happen to my family."
I swear to god Godric just shot Eric the you-just-got-told look and actually got away with it. Well whoever he is must be important to Eric then. "Goodnight." Sookie said before dragging me off again. Once we were outside she stopped and looked at me. "Does it really bother you that much? That you would turn to Eric?"
What the hell is she thinking? "You've lost me." I said confused. "The... um..." I swear i went red. "You think that i went to Eric because... of..." I shook my head. "No... you misunderstand. Jess wanted to come here to have some fun since i wasn't going to able to sleep at home."
"I guess we over do it huh?" Oh please let this conversation end! "...you think?" Take a good look at the past week Sook. "and what do you mean by 'have fun' Nyght." She's questioning me about this... really? "Eh! Not that! Pervert!" I freaked, couldn't help it i was beyond uncomfortable with this little chat.
"We should just go home now..." Sookie said as she looked around uneasily. More than likely someone has listened in on our conversation Sookie and is somewhere laughing at us. I silently got in to the chair just as Bill and Jessica joined us.
It was a uncomfortable silent ride home. I nearly begged them to let me out but i made it back to the house and was now standing in the front yard with Jess. "That was embarassing." She said. "I will never be able to show my face again."
"Ok so no Fangtasia but we can always go other places. Want to see if Buzz kill Bill will let you go to a movie? I'm sure Sookie won't mind as long as i am careful." Sook was use to me doing what i wanted to when i wanted to. Besides this gave those two some time alone and god knows Jess and I didn't want to be around to hear this.
"Sure, lets go ask our parents." Jessica said. Sometimes it was like that though. They acted like it, the one problem was that i didn't like him. Period. "Yes big sister." I smiled. What was disturbing is that Bill had heard the entire conversation and was grinning like a proud parent. Someone shoot me please...
"Can we go to the movies?" Jess asked as i just stood there somewhat behind her wanting nothing but to turn and run out of the house.
What do you think?
