Hello Again Everyone. Yes I know, what the hell took me so long! My apologies. Lack of internet connection, and a bit of writers block can suck…but now I have connection, and some ideas, so more updates and chapters are on their way!
Here's the next chapter! Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own True Blood, or any of the awesome Sookie Stackhouse novels. I do not own any of the characters...but don't you just wish you could...siighhhh...lol. Rawr.
Last Chapter...
I looked towards the other blonde stranger to see him smirking at me, and I suddenly became very cautious of the fact that my body was thoroughly exposed. My hands drifted to keep was little of my clothing that was left intact, as I looked at this stranger staring at me. I soon recognized him as the man from the club who was sitting on the throne like chair watching everyone.
"Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Eric, Eric Northman."
Chapter Three: "What Did you Say?
"Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Eric, Eric Northman."
He looked at me, somewhat expectant. I couldn't help but think that was kind of cocky. Am I supposed to throw myself down at his feet now...just because he says his name? Either he was an important person...or he had a little itty bit of an ego.
He smirked and ran a hand through his hair.
Ego.
I smiled and nodded my head, but I'm sure he noticed my slightly raised eyebrows and smirk. Damn me and my inability to hide my natural reactions.
"Ok..." I mumbled out. All I wanted was some clean clothing, a shower, and my bed. I couldn't really care for the pleasantries...although I guess I could be a bit more grateful to the man who saved me. He looked at me with his own raised eyebrow, and I made an 'oh' sound before I introduced myself.
"Sophia...Way." I mumbled out, very self conscious. I looked down, suddenly embarrassed. I heard Vamps got super hearing...wonder if he heard my ever-so-smart comment to the group that decided to make me their dinner. I suddenly felt extremely stupid sitting in rags in front of this towering man that just exuded power. He turned away and I looked down at my body again. I came dangerously close to dying tonight...and yet the reality hasn't even set in yet. It was strange.
"Pleasure to meet you Sophia." He simply stated, sending a smile over to me. Seeing him smiling sent warmth through my body. This man needed to do that more often.
"I have a few questions for you, regarding the situation you seem to have...found yourself in." He more or less meant this as more of a demand than a question, and feeling somewhat like a dumbass, I only nodded my head. I made a mental note to keep my wonderfully sarcastic mouth in check...before I become someone's dinner again.
"How did you wind up in the alleyway behind my club?"He cocked his head to the side in question, and I could feel the heat slowly traveling up to my cheeks. I'm about to look like the worlds biggest idiot. I took a deep breath and decided to sum it up...obviously leaving out the bit where I said 'Bite Me'…
"I came with a few friends…I've been here a few times before, so it's not like I'm completely new to this place…" He simply nodded, and a small smirk appeared on his face.
"Yes…I've seen you here before…"I nodded…slightly confused that he would remember my face of all faces. My mouth again made a small 'oh' motion, and I looked down unsure of how to answer. I looked back up, and he was looking at me expectantly so I continued.
"I just got a massive headache and wasn't really paying attention to my surroundings. I was standing at the bar when three vampires came up to me. One of them started touching me and asking me what I was doing here, trying to pick me up for lack of a better term…and I told them off. I guess they didn't like it much." I shrugged and trailed off, gesturing towards my body. He nodded his head, and asked me a few more questions on what the vampires who attacked me looked like, and how long ago I remember the incident taking place.
"Well Sophia, thank you for answering my questions. I do apologize for the incident that took place, and I will let you know that those responsible will pay for their actions." He smiled at me, and again I had that feeling run through my body…ask cocky as this guy may seem…he had a reason to be…I won't lie…
"Than-" I was cut off as the door flew open and the other blond walked in. She looked from Eric to me with a bored expression and proceeded to hand me a pile of clothing.
"Sophia, Pam. Pam, Sophia." Eric stated introducing us.
"Pleasure to meet you. It's a pity…I thought you looked scrumptious in what you were wearing before." She winked at me, and turned to Eric. He spoke to her in a foreign language I didn't recognize.
"Seriously, in these shoes Eric?" She sighed as she gestured down to her red pumps, "I've already ruined one pair…" She said annoyed, as she placed her hands on her hips. Eric sighed and ran a hand through his hair.
"Take Chow with you then." She grumbled and turned and left, closing the door behind her.
Eric looked at me and I could feel his gaze piecing right through me. I stared back and felt mesmerized by his eyes…they're a pale blue that just held you hostage. They pulled you in…
I snapped out of it and looked down at the rags I was currently in, and then to the clothing Pam handed me.
"Well…I have to go. My friends are probably very worried about me." I stood up, and gestured to the clothing in my hands.
"Of course, just exit this door and the bathrooms are to your left. Goodbye Sophia. I again apologize for what happened to you, but I do hope to see you again." I nodded and turned to leave when my head began hurting again, the throbbing hitting me full force, and I winced in pain.
"Are you alight?" I head Eric say. I shrugged and pointed to my head.
"Small headache, I'll be fine. Thank you for saving me…" I smiled, and he simply nodded as I turned and opened the door.
'There is something about this girl...'
I paused and turned, and looked at Eric. What the hell is that supposed to mean?
"What did you just say?" I asked him. A look on confusion graced Eric's face, and he tilted his head to the side, raising an eyebrow as he looked at me.
'What the hell is she talking about…' I heard, but his mouth didn't move…but I heard him…
"I didn't say anything…" He said. He opened his mouth to speak again, but I cut him off, laughing nervously.
"Oh, sorry, I'm just really tired I guess. Bye Eric." I turned towards the door again, when I heard him speak again.
'She has quite the body…'
I turned my head towards him again, and he only raised his eyebrow once more, so I just nodded, smiled stiffly and quickly exited his office and entered the bathrooms, changing quickly. I walked as quickly as I could towards the exit of the club. Eric didn't say anything…but I heard him…his mouth never moved…but I heard him…
Oh God…
What the hell is wrong with me?
Oh my...whats happened to Sophia? If you wanna know, stay tuned to see what happens next in Chapter Four of The Last Sunrise...
