I own nothing everything belongs to Ms. Harris.

When I released Pam from the hug I had sprung on her she smoothed out her outfit and I am pretty sure I heard her mutter something that sounded a lot like "humans". I just smiled at her I was way too excited to even say anything about her dig at my show of affection. Then she got a serious look on her face and said "Sookie, I will help you, but first I need to know that you are sure with absolute certainty that you want to be Eric's."

I knew without any doubt in my mind that being Eric's was exactly what I wanted. I had always been drawn to him from the moment I laid eyes on him during my first trip to Fangtasia but I was with Bill and I am a one man woman.

It didn't help that Eric was very closed off unless he was trying to get into my pants but I started to have real feeling for him after the rooftop in Dallas it was then that I knew there was more to him than he let show.

After our week together I was certain of it and I felt strongly that even without his memories of our time together that if I became his and when we were alone that I would see the whole of Eric not just his public façade. So I replied with all the confidence in the world "Yes Pam I am 100% certain that I want to be Eric's. I want all of him not just the man he was during the curse. I just hope that he wants me the same way since he can't remember what we shared."

Pam assured me that Eric most defiantly wanted me and not just for my ability. She told me she had never seen him take such interest in anyone much less put himself on the line to protect me in all the time they had been together. Hearing her say that gave me the warm fuzzies all over.

Pam and I started to work out the details of how to go about our mission. She said that I should come to Fangtasia tomorrow night to surprise him as he would never in a million years expect for me to come to him, I had to agree he would definitely be shocked. Pam said that I must have the perfect outfit for the occasion and she headed for my closet to see what I had. After a brief look she scowled and informed me that nothing I had would do.

So our first order of business was a shopping trip to get the perfect outfit she said she knew a place where could go to get the afore mentioned perfect outfit. I grabbed my purse and keys and headed out the door with Pam.

I made my way towards my car and as I was about to open the door Pam asked "Just what do you think you are doing?"

"I thought it would be obvious Pam, I 'm getting in the car so we can go shopping." I said to which she replied" Sookie there is no way I am riding in that ugly death trap you call a car. We will take mine." I was going to protest her assessment of my car but the look she was giving me told me it was pointless. The ride to the boutique was quick and that wasn't because it was close by. Pam drove like the devil was after her. I had a white knuckled death drip on the door handle the whole way there.

I told her that I wasn't immortal and that I would die if we had an accident and asked her if she could slow down. She just laughed and said "I am an excellent driver my reflex's are much better than a humans and I have never had an accident." Since she clearly was not going to slow down I took a few deep calming breaths and tried to think of anything but flying down the interstate like a rocket. Thoughts of Eric filtered into my mind and my terror of Pam's driving melted into a happy bliss the next thing I knew we were in the car park.

Once we were inside the boutique Pam started selecting dresses from the racks she took three that she said would look perfect on me and proceeded to grab several pairs of heels and ushered me towards the dressing rooms to try them on. I was excited but nervous everything I here was very expensive and I wasn't sure my bank account could handle it and told Pam as much.

She just shushed me and told me that she would be putting it on her account and that she would hear no arguments about it. I looked at the three selections Pam had chosen for me, all three were red but each was a different length. The first one I ruled out immediately it was too short and with the bounty god had given me would have been indecent.

The second one was pretty so I tried it on. It was knee length with a scooped neckline fitted bodice and flared out just below my hips. The dress was made of a silky material that sparkled when the lights glinted off the tiny crystals that were covering it. It showed my assets nicely while maintaining my modesty but I wanted something more striking, something that would grab Eric's attention the second he saw me but I stepped out of the dressing room to get Pam's opinion. She looked me over head to toe appraising me as her gaze finally settled back at my eyes she just said "Next."

I rolled my eyes and returned to the dressing room to try on the third option. It was strapless and came down to mid thigh the bodice was fully ruched with a soft sweetheart neckline and a silver beaded flower appliqué on the side. I slide into it and zipped myself up, when I turned to the mirror I gasped. The dress looked amazing it was very fitted and clung to all my curves accenting all my assets, I slid on a pair of strappy silver 5 inch heels and stepped out of the dressing room for Pam's appraisal.

As soon as Pam saw me her fangs snapped down and she smiled the most lascivious grin I had ever seen. I blushed and she purred out "Mmm Sookie you look good enough to eat. My master will truly enjoy you in that dress." I smiled shyly and said "Thanks Pam." She grabbed a few other accessories for the outfit that included jewelry and a very racy bra and panty set, a few things for her and paid the clerk. With our shopping trip over Pam drove me back to my house.

We carried all of my new things into the house; I thanked Pam again for all her help and for buying me the dress and accessories. She just waved it off saying that she considered it an investment in her sanity. Her face took on a very serious look before she said "There are a few things I would still like to discuss with you before I head back to Shreveport." I nodded and she continued "I know that you are willing to be Eric's but I want t make sure you understand what that will mean and how you will be expected to act in public as well as how he will be expected to treat you in front of others vampires." I nodded and said "That would be very helpful. I don't want to do anything to embarrass myself or Eric." Pam spent the next half hour explaining everything it meant to belong to Eric and how I should act in front of other vampires as well as telling me how Eric would treat me as well.

Some of what she told me chafed my independent nature my gran raised me to be a strong southern woman but in light of the fact that I was free to be myself when we were alone I decided Eric was more important to me than my pride and that for him I was willing to play the role of pet when necessary.

It was quite late now and I was tired having taken a ride on my emotional rollercoaster earlier in the evening, shopping with Pam and then a very detailed lesson in vampire etiquette to mull over. I thanked Pam for coming and told her I need to sleep. We agreed that she would come over after dark tomorrow night to help me get ready for my big night. After she left I went to my room shed my jeans and shirt and walked into my bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face before I slid into my favorite gown. I shut off the lights and climbed into my bed and thoughts of Eric danced behind my eyes as I drifted off to sleep with a smile on my face and excitement in my heart for what I hoped would be a very steamy reunion.
