AN: Hope you guys had a great New Year! As promised, here is the next story in the Frozen series. Like I said before it will be Sookie x Eric for the most part, but will turn into Eric x Sookie x Loki by the end of it.

It has been pointed out that I messed up the spelling of 'Sigyn' and wish to apologize for that. I will fix it as soon as I can. Thank you Tennyo Ch'ang-O for pointing this out to me. I'll make sure I won't mix that up again.

Anyway here's the new story and I hope you enjoy it as much as you all did Frozen!

Since we are focusing on the True Blood universe more this time, I will follow tradition and entitle each chapter based on a song.

This chapter's title is 'Something to Die For' by The Sounds

"Order up, Sookie!"

Sookie looked towards Lafayette, as she cleaned up the table that just left.

"Alright!" She called back before picking up the order.

After delivering the food to the ones who ordered it, she made her way from table to table checking on everyone in her section.

It was a busy night at Merlotte's. There was a football game at the local high school, so everyone and their mother was pretty much here tonight. Sookie didn't mind though. Nights like this took her mind off other things.

It had been a year since New York. Since then the telepath had two jobs. A waitress at Merlotte's and a 'consultant' for S.H.E.I.L.D. With how much money she makes thanks to the secret government organization, you would think she would quit working at this bar, but Sookie continued to work here. Mainly because it made her feel like she was still human.

Being a telepathic faery with mystical powers, tended to make one feel less human after all.

Sookie still didn't like thinking about New York. It still made her heart ache, but it was bearable now. She tried doing what Loki had said and started dating, however her telepathy still made that impossible. Normal human men were pigs. That's what she decided. The only decent men she knew were either gods, geniuses, or genetically altered.

The last date she was on was two months ago with an agent Natasha introduced her to. It seems Black Widow thought herself a matchmaker. According to Steve, she had been trying to set him up with one girl after another.

The agent was decent, she guessed, but his thoughts about how 'huge her rack' was made the night a bust. No pun intended.

So for now, Sookie was done with dating. It was obvious that dating a normal man just wouldn't work out for her, and unfortunately all the men she knew that weren't normal were taken or she thought of them more as a sibling.

"Hellllooo, Sooookkiiee!"

A hand waved in front of Sookie's face, drawing her out of her thoughts. When she looked to the owner of the hand she saw Darcy standing there.

"Oh, hey, Darcy! Sorry about that."

Darcy smirked, "There we go. Spacey much?"

"Just had some stuff on my mind." Sookie shrugged, "Here for Jane's typical take out?"

"Yep!"

Both moved to the bar, Darcy sitting on a free stool, and Sookie grabbed the boxes Lafayette set aside.

Jane and Darcy had been staying with the Stackhouses for a few months. They were two of a small group of people that knew about Sookie's powers, and Jane wished to run tests on the telepath to study the tesseract more, as well as figure out how Sookie's genetic makeup was effected by it.

Sookie didn't mind. She liked both of the girls.

Sookie soon gave Darcy the two boxes of takeout. The young woman's eyes were elsewhere however. When Sookie followed them, she saw what held the girl's interest.

It was a crate with 'TruBlood' written on the side.

"Have you gotten any in here yet?" Darcy inquired curiously.

Sookie simply shook her head.

That was the biggest change in the past year.

The world found out that vampires existed.

It seemed that, since the world found out about the existence of Norse Gods, aliens, and have seen a man turn into a giant green monster, vampires don't seem like that much of a stretch.

They came 'out of the coffin' a few months after New York, there was a big news report and everything. Sookie hadn't met one personally, but she did get a text from Steve and Tony soon after the report. Steve was skeptical about the whole thing, while Tony said they should all go to Transylvania and look Dracula up.

"Ya know," Darcy grinned, "I heard a vampire bar opened up in Shreveport. I was thinking about going to check it out, want to tag along? Jane already said no and I don't want to go by myself."

Sookie did have to admit she was curious about them. She doubted any would show up around here anytime soon.

"I don't know, when would you want to go?"

"Well you get off work in a hour right?" Darcy grinned more.

What the girls didn't notice was a certain bar owner eavesdropping on their conversation.

Sam Merlotte quickly came over.

"Cher, can I talk to you in my office for a moment?"

Sookie could tell from Sam's thoughts what he wanted to talk about, and honestly the telepath was not interested, but she decided to humor him.

Once they were in his office, Sam turned to face Sookie.

"Sook, you can't honestly be thinking about going to that vamp bar!" He began, "You don't know that place, those vamps will eat you alive."

Sookie crossed her arms over her chest, "And you know this how? Also, I thought you were for the VRA."

"I'm ok with them opening their own bars and stuff, doesn't mean I like vampires."

Sookie rolled her eyes, "Have you even met one?"

"No, but I've heard stories."

"So a bunch of hear say? That doesn't help your case at all, Sam Merlotte."

Sam growled in frustration.

'She can be so hardheaded!' He thought, and Sookie had to bite her tongue from retorting back.

'Why are you allowing this mortal push you so far?'

Loki's words played in her head, causing Sookie's heart to ache once again.

Sam sensed the change in Sookie, but before he could comment the telepath looked to him, her eyes showing her resolve.

"I am going to that vampire bar, and you have no right to stop me."

And with that, Sookie left his office.

Sam stared at the door in frustration. A year ago Sookie had gone to visit some 'relatives'. At least that's what her Gran said when she called. When Sookie returned to work though, she was different, even her scent was different, and with his heightened senses he knew she was no longer a virgin. Her scent had lost it's innocence.

Everything just didn't seem to add up. As far as he knew, Sookie had no relatives outside of Louisiana. Then there was her so called cousins 'Darcy' and 'Jane'. They didn't look related at all. Tara even said as long as she'd known the Stackhouses, no one had ever mentioned them.

Besides all that though, one thing had bothered Sam the most.

A few days after Sookie came back to work. Terry had come to him, asking about 'what happened' to Sookie. When the bar owner asked him what he meant, all he said was:

"I've seen that look before in her eyes... It's the look of someone who has seen war."

Some might think Terry is a little crazy, but he never lies; and if anyone knew about the look one gives after seeing combat, it would be Terry. All you had to do was look at the veteran and know he had seen things.

'Why would Sookie have such a look though?' He thought as he looked to the ceiling in thought.

"No you are totally not wearing that."

Darcy rolled her eyes at the outfit Sookie came down stairs in. It was a white dress with red flowers all over it. The telepath was having trouble choosing an outfit to wear to the vampire bar.

Sookie looked down at herself, then back up at Darcy.

"What's wrong with it?"

"We're going to a vampire bar, Sook, not a tea party."

This time Sookie rolled her eyes, "So I should dress like a dominatrix?" Sookie looked pointedly at Darcy's black leather outfit.

"What? Online they said this is how everyone dresses at that bar."

"Well I won't be dressing like that. I like this dress." Sookie picked up her jacket from Loki and put it on. "Besides, I thought the flowers looked a little blood colored."

"Fine." Darcy rolled her eyes again, then peeked into the kitchen, "You sure you don't want to come with us, Jane?"

Jane was reading over a file at the kitchen table. She didn't bother looking up from it.

"No, I have zero interest in going. Besides, I just got this file from Stark about Sookie's flight test." She looked up to Sookie, "You broke through the sound barrier?"

Sookie grinned a little. It was one of the few powers she loved. She could fly.

"Yeah, but I kinda got whiplash from it." She rubbed her neck remembering.

"That's still really impressive. Your powers seem to be growing."

Darcy rolled her eyes again, "Yeah, yeah, you're one leotard away from becoming Superman. Can we go now?"

Soon the pair arrived to Fangtasia. Sookie guessed this is kinda what she expected. Red neon sign, line of leather clad men and women trying to get in, you could even hear the pulsing beat of the music coming from inside.

Though the fact it was close to a Toys r Us made Sookie cringe.

They were about to go to the back of the line when someone called out to them.

"Hey, you two!"

When they looked over, they saw it was the bouncer at the door. She was a tall blond woman dressed in a black leather dress. She looked like a dominatrix Barbie to Sookie.

The blond smirked, and beckoned them over with a finger.

When they came over to her, she looked them both up and down with a smirk still in place.

"You two don't have to wait in line." she held out her hand, "IDs"

Both quickly got their IDs out, and the blond looked them over, then looked to Sookie, handing her card back first.

"22, huh?" The blond grinned and Sookie could see some fangs. "How sweet it is."

Darcy got her ID back after, and the blond opened the rope for them.

"Tell the man at the bar 'Pam' sent you. Your first drinks are on me." Pam purred.

The inside of the bar was more then Sookie could imagine. It kinda reminded her of a ride at Disneyland.

'What's with all the red?' Sookie thought to herself as Darcy and her made their way to the bar.

"Maybe that dress was a good idea." Darcy grinned to her friend, "It go us free drinks."

"What are you talking about? She was just being nice."

Darcy rolled her eyes, "Oh please. She couldn't take her eyes off your chest!" Darcy nudged her teasingly, "You know, considering your bad luck with finding a guy, maybe you should try batting for the other team? That bouncer would probably take you up on an offer."

"Darcy!" Sookie was blushing now.

When they got to the bar, the bartender came to them right away. It was like he had teleported to them. He flashed some fang and both girls felt their skin crawl.

"What can I get you blood bags to drink?" He inquired.

The way he called them 'Blood Bags' made Sookie want to slap him, but she refrained from doing so.

"Gin and Tonic please, and 'Pam' at the door said the first drinks were on her?" Sookie spoke up.

The bartender looked to the door and Pam nodded. He then got Darcy's order and in seconds, there were two drinking in front of them.

Sookie remained at the bar as she watched Darcy dance with some other leather clad guy. He was human. Apparently the telepath couldn't read vampire thoughts. They only felt like black holes. Another plus for vampires in Sookie's book.

Looking away from Darcy, she took another sip of her drink. Not knowing she was being watched from across the room by a pair of blue eyes.

The eyes belonged to Eric Northman the owner of the bar.

He had smelt her, before he saw her. He was in his office and had to find the creature this scent belonged to. It reminded him of honey, wheat, and sunlight. He was not disappointed by what he saw. Her hair shined like the sun from his memories, her skin was sun kissed, and her eyes were blue like the sky. She was the embodiment of summer, and he had to have her.

Pam vamped to his side, "Saw her did you?" she purred in Swedish.

"Tell me everything you know about this creature." He ordered, also speaking in Swedish. His eyes never leaving her.

"Sookie Stackhouse, age 22, lives in Bon Temps."

"Sookie." He wanted to try out her name on his tongue, "What a interesting name. Did she come here alone?"

"No, she's with a friend." She motioned to Darcy, who was on the dance floor.

Eric nodded and was about to make his move, when what he saw made him growl. Longshadow, the bartender, was trying to glamour his prey. He was about to go break his neck, but then Longshadow held his head then winced.

"It's not nice to try and get in someone's head you know." Sookie muttered, taking another sip of her drink.

Eric smirked, "Fascinating."

"Is she some sort of Supe?" Pam was equally impressed, and tickled that Longshadow got shot down instantly.

"I'm not sure. I will have to find out." Eric grinned.

Sookie stared down the annoyed vampire before her. She didn't understand what he was doing, but it was like he was trying to influence her to go with him somewhere. Whatever it was, it didn't work and how he was annoyed and growling at her, showing off his fangs like an angry dog that was denied a bone.

"What are you?" He demanded lowly with a growl.

"Why does everyone ask me that when they first meet me?" Sookie rolled her eyes.

The vampire was trying to intimidate her, but who would be afraid of a sickly looking guy with pointy teeth when you've faced off with The Hulk or have seen giant floating caterpillars? Compared to them, Sookie was positive she could take this guy if he tried something.

"Longshadow, that's enough." A deep voice spoke behind her.

When Sookie turned around she almost dropped her drink. There was the most gorgeous man she had ever seen standing behind her. He was tall, very tall, he had to be as tall as Thor. He also had the most gorgeous blue eyes and had shoulder length blond hair.

Eric held back a smirk, she obviously found him attractive as well.

"I apologize for the rudeness my bartender has shown you. I'm Eric Northman, the owner of this bar."

Sookie quickly came out of her stupor, a blush tinting her cheeks, "Sookie. Sookie Stackhouse."

"Please allow me to make up for his rudeness, Sookie."

Eric lead Sookie to his private booth near the stage. It was secluded compared to the rest of the bar. It was roped off like some sort of VIP section. Or maybe in this case it would be VIV? Sookie held back a chuckle at her own little quip.

Eric motioned for her to sit first, then he slid in on the other side. Both of them now faced each other.

"May I offer you a drink? It will be free of charge."

"Just a water if you wouldn't mind? Considering the state my friend is in, I'll probably have to be DD tonight." She smiled kindly to him.

Eric nodded, and waved over a waitress. From her thoughts, Sookie could tell she wasn't entirely there. Her mind was a jumbled up mess.

"Ginger, a water for Miss. Stackhouse." He ordered.

"Yes, Master." She clumsily curtsied, then went off to get the drink.

"Master?" Sookie raised an eyebrow, making Eric chuckle.

"Just a formality. Pamela has the staff call me that. She says it adds to the vampire 'image'." Eric smirked, "You however Miss Stackhouse are welcome to call me whatever you wish."

Sookie blushed, "Are you flirting with me, Mr. Northman?"

"Perhaps," Eric picked up one of Sookie's hands and played with it a little, his touch sending a pleasant shudder through her body. "You are quite beautiful, Ms. Stackhouse." He brought her wrist to his face and kissed it, another shudder went through Sookie's body and she closed her eyes. "And obviously not fully human."

Sookie's eyes shot opened and she looked at the smirking face of Eric.

"How?"

Eric grinned, "Your scent is far sweeter then the other humans that venture into my bar, and you can't be glamored by us it seems, since Longshadow didn't get his way."

"Glamored? Is that what the creepy bartender was trying to do?" Eric chuckled and nodded, "What is that? Some kind of hypnotism?"

Eric's eyes lit up slightly, "You're quite smart. Beauty and brains." Sookie blushed again. "Yes, it's like hypnotism. Some are better at it then others, but it seems you don't have to worry about that. I can't help but wonder why that is." He tongue snaked out and licked the sensitive skin of her wrist, making her gasp. "Perhaps we could go somewhere more private and discuss it?"

Before Sookie could respond a stray thought entered her brain.

'I wish back up would get here already.'

When Sookie froze, Eric thought he had went to far, but then the girl grabbed his hand and looked to him.

"Eric, we have to get out of here." He smirked, thinking she was agreeing to his proposition, making Sookie roll her eyes, "No, that's not what I meant. There's going to be a police raid."

Eye's eyes flashed with anger, "Tell me you're not an undercover cop."

"No, but that man in the hat is." She motioned to a man to the side.

Eric glanced over at him then back at Sookie shrugging, "Even if that is the case, we do nothing illegal here."

Eric watched as Sookie tilted her head slightly, her eyes flashed for a second then she looked to Eric again, "There's a vampire named Taryn feeding off a human man in the bathroom."

Before Eric could question her more about this, the police finally came into the club. Eric vamped to Sookie's side and quickly picked her up bridal style and was about to take her through the back, but she stopped him.

"Wait, my friend." She looked for Darcy.

Eric groaned silently, "Pam, get the girl."

Once he was sure Pam got Sookie's 'friend' he vamped them out the back of the club and into the parking lot. He placed Sookie on the ground gently and soon Pam came out with a drunk Darcy over her shoulder.

"Wow, that was like a roller coaster!" The brunette giggled.

"I'll give you a ride anytime." Pam purred as she placed Darcy on the ground.

Sookie held Darcy up, all four could hear the police cars coming and quickly.

"Your car is over there?" Eric asked, when Sookie nodded, he nodded back and took her hand once again, placing it on his cheek and giving her wrist another kiss, "I enjoyed meeting you Miss Stackhouse. You will come again."

Before Sookie knew it both Eric and Pam were gone.

Sookie managed to get Darcy to bed without waking anyone, Jane was asleep at the kitchen table, Gran was asleep in her room, and Darcy was currently staying in Jason's old room. Sookie teleported Jane into the cot next to the bed and covered them both up. She then teleported to her room and changed into a pair of sleep shorts and a shirt.

Sookie didn't feel tired at all. She kept thinking about Eric. She hadn't felt such a spark from between someone and herself since Loki.

Sookie shook her head and thought to herself, 'Don't think like that. He's just good looking and a flirt.'

At least that's what she kept telling herself.

Sookie groaned, "Maybe a flight before bed is in order."

With a grin, Sookie teleported to the backyard and concentrated. Her hair and the hidden runes on her body soon began to glow, and in seconds she was flying through the forest behind her house. Zooming past tree after tree. She was laughing excitedly She loved to fly. It made her feel alive.

Soon she came to her favorite spot. It was a lake deep in the forest. As she flew she trailed her hand across the water's surface causing ripples, she then shot up towards the sky. Once she was as high as she dared go, she let herself fall back towards the Earth, laughing the whole way down. Before she fell into the water however, she floated over the surface and laid back, staring up at the stars.

Whenever she stared up at the stars, her thoughts always drifted towards Loki and Asgard. Did the god still think about her as much as she did him? She closed her eyes and allowed her body to float over the water's surface like she was on a pool raft. Her hand making small patterns in the water. She hummed slightly, not knowing she was being watched once again from one of the trees.

After taking care of the bar, Eric had flown to Sookie's house. He had to see her once again before he died for the day. What he saw confused him however. The girl was standing in her backyard alone in what looked like her sleepwear. For a second Eric thought she perhaps was waiting for him.

Then her body started to glow and she started to float, making the vampire's eyes widen. When she began flying through the trees, he quickly followed, hiding in a tree as he watched her play around at the lake. When she started laughing like a child, Eric couldn't help but grin. He understood the love of flying. When he had learned how to fly from his maker, he had spent hours every night just going out and soaring through the skies.

This just made him more curious about the enigma that was Sookie Stackhouse. What was she? Why couldn't she be glamored? How did she know about the raid? Why could she fly?

His questions were endless, and they just made him desire to be near her all the more.

Once she was on her back, and eyes were closed, Eric flew over to her and hovered over her body. He studied the runes on her body a bit. They were similar to the runes he had grown up with as a child. They glowed a soft blue. If Eric didn't know any better he would say she was a Valkyrie, but he doubted that. She seemed more powerful then that.

"Lovely night for a flight." He whispered down to her.

Sookie shrieked in fright, the glow disappearing. She was about to fall into the water, but strong arms held her up. With an eep she opened her eyes and stared up at Eric.

"E-Eric? You scared me!" Her chest was heaving from her fright.

Eric chuckled, and floated them to the safety of the shore. Once she was safely on the ground, Sookie looked up at him.

"You can fly too? Actually wait, better question, why are you here?" Her hands were on her hips.

Eric held back a chuckle, she was a little spitfire and he loved it, "I came to make sure you arrived safely."

The tattoo that Loki had given Sookie began to warm up, alerting Sookie that, that was a lie.

"Nice try, but I know that's a lie." She crossed her hands over her chest this time.

Eric raised an eyebrow, then smirked, "You truly are remarkable. Fine, what if I told you I just wanted to see you again?"

Sookie blushed, "What?"

Eric shrugged, "I thought our time was cut to short for my liking, and wished to spend more time with you." He smirked and approached her, causing Sookie to back up into a tree. He stared down into her blue eyes, a hand coming up to play with a strand of her hair. "Unfortunately the sun will be up soon, so I can't stay long. Perhaps I could see you tonight?"

Sookie's blush grew. He was being serious. No lie or anything. He really wanted to to spend time with her.

"I have work tonight, but I get off at 7:00."

Eric grinned, "Fine, I can pick you up after. Where do you work?"

"Merlotte's Bar and Grill."

Eric knew about the bar, and knew it was owned by a shifter named Sam Merlotte.

With a nod, Eric leaned in closer, "I will see you tonight then, Ms. Stackhouse."

Eric closed the gap between them and kissed her. It was like one of those kisses that Sookie had read about in her romance novels. It soft yet held so much passion and promise in it. Her eyes closed, enjoying the kiss, but before it could go any further. His lips disappeared from her own. When her eyes opened he was gone as well.
