I don't own any of the characters Charlaine Harris does :) I am merely borrowing them!

The one downfall of getting drunk, hangovers, and by the looks of things this was going to be one for the record book. As my head pounded as if two sumo wrestlers were fighting over the last spoon of Ben and Jerry's, I slowly pulled my eyes open to take in the bleary surroundings of where I had collapsed last night. I seemed to be in a small messy bedroom, there was clothes strewn across the floor, and from looking at them it seemed this guy was a t-shirt and jeans kind of guy. There were posters of popular band's I've never even heard off and dirty mugs on almost every surface. As I was mulling over my choices; to climb through the window or to face my saviour from last night, a gentle knock sounded at the door. I sat up alert as the door was nudged open and the most beautiful human being I had ever laid my eyes on walked into the room. I recognised him from somewhere, but I was unsure where from, maybe he had been one of my past conquests. I looked up at him plastering a false sexy smile on my face, it's not like I didn't think he was beautiful in fact I was transfixed by his beautiful blonde flowing hair and his icy blue eyes, I really wasn't in the mood for flirting, and whatever may follow on. All I wanted was a coffee and some pain killers and to be allowed to clamber into bed and never come back out. It seems that my new friend was on the same wavelength as me as in his hands he had two mugs of coffee and a couple of pain pills, he handed me a coffee and placed the pills on the nightstand. I immediately swallowed the pills and took a gulp of coffee closing my eyes as I felt the pills sliding their way down my throat. I opened my eyes to find the beautiful creature staring at me with a strange look I couldn't quite work out on his face.
'What?' I snapped annoyed at his staring, he just chuckled and shook his head then moved to sit in a cluttered chair in the corner. Annoyed at his reluctance to answer I flopped back down on the bed ignoring him right back. Eventually the silence got to me so I sat bolt upright and stared at him through narrowed eyes.
'Who are you anyway? I recognise you, but I don't know where from, have we fucked?!' I quizzed him
'No, we definitely haven't fucked. I'm friends with your brother, Jason. I recognised you last night and it looked like you just needed to get out of there, so I pulled that guy Bill off you and brought you back here.' He answered me. Wow a friend of my brothers? I never knew my brother had friends, let alone friends this so god damn sexy.
'So, your name?' I asked, raising my eyebrow.
'Oh sorry, it's Eric. Eric Northman.' He smiled a heart warming smile, and ran his fingers threw his hair. Every little expression and every little unconscious move he made had me hypnotised. This was dangerous. I couldn't afford for my life to become intertwined with someone else's. I made to get up and leave.
'How do you know my brother?' I realized this was starting to sound like a Spanish inquisition, but I just wanted to give him more reasons to talk, his voice was like soft silk, and I yearned for him to talk forever.
'Well, I met him when his band played at my uncle's bar, Fangtasia.' Eric looked at me and smiled 'His band is pretty good actually.' I was shocked; I didn't even know Jason was in a band. Mind you I hadn't spoken to him in about 6 months, ever since I got kicked out.
'Wow, I didn't know Jason was in a band.' I was amazed by this fact, I knew Jason joined band when he was still at school but he was IN a band! I didn't even know what instrument he played!
'Hmm, well from what I hear you don't know a lot about Jason anymore, He talks about you all the time.' I looked at the blonde angel and I felt instantly guilty
'Yeah well it's hard, with my parents and everything.' I picked at the bedding, looking down too ashamed to meet his eyes.
'I understand, I've been told all about it. So I suppose you will want a shower and some breakfast huh?' he smiled a cheeky smile at me, and I melted, this most definitely was not good.
He showed me the shower and gave me one of his T-shirts and Jogging bottoms to change into. Whilst I was in the bathroom I took the opportunity to look for any evidence that Eric could have a girlfriend, and much to my joy I found nothing. I showered and changed, then followed the scent of food to the kitchen. Eric had made me pancakes, which were my favourite, so I sat down and demolished them, not realising how hungry I was. Eric gave me a tour of his apartment, and I discovered that he lived here alone; his uncle had bought him it as an 18th birthday present. We spent the day watching re-runs of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and discovering more and more about each other, I learnt that he plays guitar and has done since he was about 8, that his parents had died when he was younger, and his Uncle had taken care of him since then. It felt comforting having someone to talk to who seemed to care, of course I couldn't be sure but Eric seemed genuinely interested in my life, and I'm pretty sure he wasn't just putting it on to get a fuck out of me. Even if he was he didn't need to try so hard, I would be putty in his hands at the merest hint of proceedings heading that way. Spending the day with Eric turned out to be the best thing that had happened to me in months, I felt relaxed, and I didn't even need to get high.
