Chapter 2: Giving in

"Remember when we first met?"

"You mean when I was assigned to watch over you as a favor to to your maker?" Eric rolled his eyes towards her.

She exhaled. "Yeah, yeah…"

"What do you plan on doing while you're here? Surely, you didn't just come to say hi." Eric got up and walked around the desk, sitting at his chair, and grinning at her.

Jessica leaned forward and her lips curved up in the corners. "What would you like me to do?"

Eric let out a laugh as he leaned forward towards her. "Anything you like. So tell me, Jessica, what do you plan to do?"

She looked around the room and started to whistle, the thoughts in her mind consuming her. He was her elder but he was so attractive to her that she didn't know if she could handle being around him much longer. He wasn't Hoyt. He wasn't Jason. He was more experienced than both of them combined and more attractive. Plus, she had more of a chance at keeping him than either of her human lovers. "I'm not sure yet."

"Yet?" he asked, raising his eyebrow. She got up and moved closer to the desk, smiling. "What are you planning, Jessica?" Eric scooted his chair back, contemplating getting up.

She squeezed between him and the desk. "I really admire you, Eric. You're so strong and you're so much more alive than Bill."

Eric laughed again. "And yet I've been dead so much longer. What are you up to?"

"Does it matter?"

He nodded, trying to stop his grin from coming through. She had always been a handful and had always a heart on her sleeve for him and he knew it. "Yes, it does. What do you want from me?"

"Everything," she said propping herself up on his desk and linking her legs around his chair, pulling him slightly closer.

"Excellent," he grinned, standing and placing his hands on her thighs.

"Downstairs?"

He shook his head and stepped around the desk. "No, we can just use my office." Jessica raised an eyebrow and grinned as he locked the door and returned to her, instantly pulling her hair back and kissing her with mass hunger upon his return to the desk. Jessica grinned as he held onto her. Just the touch of his lips on her hers felt like a burst of pent up emotions and energy that had been harvested for years just exploding all at once. He slid his hand up farther on her leg. She felt herself forcing herself from jumping up. His lips parted from hers and he looked at her, smiling. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah," she breathed slowly. "Why are you stopping?"

"Because," he picked her up off the desk, sliding everything off the desk, and placing her back. "There wasn't enough room," he said, his hands exploring her curves underneath her shirt, his fingers sliding under her bra and encasing her breast. His fingertips teased her nipple and the hunger inside him grew.

Jessica moaned as her back arched, her body begging for him to stop teasing."Eric," she whispered.

Eric smiled and kissed her neck. "Your wish is my command, Jessica."

She looked at him, her eyebrows raising in excitement. She pushed him up and tugged at his jacket. He moved enough to let his jacket shrug off and Jessica promptly threw it to the floor, her hands finding their way back to his body. Her body pulsated. "Fuck."

"We're getting to that," Eric grinned, pulling her closer and beginning to tear off her shirt.

"No, Bill."

He stopped and exhaled. "What does your marker want? We're a little busy right now."

"I think I noticed," she said slaying, shaking again. "He keeps calling me."

Eric pushed her back and looked at her, annoyance filling him. It only figured that Bill would try to call her when she was in his company. "Are you going to him?"

"I have to."

He rolled his eyes and moved away, picking up his jacket from the floor. "Then leave."

"Eric-I-"

"Leave, Jessica. I told you before I will not play games." He bent over and picked up the papers he had flung on the floor.

Jessica stood up and walked over to him, nervously. "Eric, I'm sorry. I have to go."

He turned and looked at her, his lips turning up at her. "You need to leave and go to your maker."

She exhaled looking towards the ground. "Okay."

Eric shook his head and wiped his brow. "We can continue this at a later date," he said kissing her.

Jessica smiled and walked out the door. Pam walked in, watching the wake of Jessica's leaving, and then glancing at Eric. "Don't tell me that's happening."

"Would it matter?"

"No," she said, stepping forward, and picking up a shattered cup dripping with True Blood. "But I don't want to have to deal with a baby vamp. You look dissatisfied, anyway."

He looked at her with a stale face. "I am. Her maker grows more annoying by the day."

"Uh, Bill," she said in disgust, throwing out the shattered pieces into the waste bin. "What does he want now?"

"Nothing important, I'm sure. How's business tonight?"

"Roaring. I've actually gotten tips from the humans to set them up with one of us. It's humorous how naive they are."

"We don't sell our fangs, Pam."

She shrugged, grinning. "No one said I helped them. I just took their money."

Eric smiled. "What do you need?"

"Just curious to why you wanted the baby vamp. She seemed to have left in a hurry. Everything alright?"

"Why would you make you think otherwise?"

"Have you seen yourself in the mirror?" She rolled her eyes and looked at the doorway. "Someone is asking for you. They said that they Magistrate has news." Eric glanced up and nodded.

Author's Note

This is still a maybe possibly full on story. I'm not sure. I know I can't be alone in loving the pairing and wishing there was more. If I get enough feedback, I may seriously make this a full on story. I really appreciate followers, favorites, shares, and feedback.

Also, the rating is indeed now M (formally T) because I kind of really want to post what I wrote originally but in a more toned down version. It's very possible that I post the original version on my tumblr.

-A/N revised: Thank you guys for reading! I love getting all these reviews and follows! It's really making my day! I'll try to update soon! :)
