Chapter 3
-New friends-

I blinked, for a horrible moment I thought he had burned up. The pit of my stomach gave out.
The other person on the roof,a blonde woman who I had all but forgotten, walked over to me. "Oh you poor thing you look a right mess" she had a cute southern drawl. My eyes found hers "he's gone", I whispered,"I couldn't stop him". Sadness filled me as I looked at the ground. "Oh no sweetheart", She laughed a smile on her face, "he went inside, Eric will be so relieved", she sighed. I looked up perplexed.
"Your parents must be so worried about you, so young and having been nearly killed", worry in her voice as she wrapped her arms around me in a big hug. My arms instinctively wrapped around her returning the thoughtful gestures. "How old do you think I am" I asked quietly. She pulled away looking down at me, "Oh you poor thing you can't be more than 16". I gave her a nervous look "I'm actually 21, people always think I'm younger though" I said looking at the ground then back up to her with a weak grin. She looked me in the eyes, giving me a funny look, "Oh! really, wow you are".
"I'm so tired" I found my self thinking as I stifled a rather large yawn, the weight of what I'd been through that night bearing down on me. "Well you sure look it, why don't you come to my hotel room, and well get you cleaned up" she replied to my unspoken words. It sounded a little odd to me, but I didn't complain I was to tired now that the adrenalin from earlier was wearing off.
I let her lead me to her hotel room, for some reason I felt like I could trust her. She let me borrow some clothes, a simple pair of jean shorts and a t-shirt, and told me to take as long ah shower as I needed. She was very nice, I found myself thanking her many times.

The shower had felt wonderful. As I put on the borrowed clothing in front of the mirror I took in the extent of the damage, I had avoided it on the way in. There was a bruise on my cheek, some on my sore neck, and many running down my arms, not to mention the bloody teeth marks on my leg. But I was alive I reminded myself, and thanked God for my good luck.
I walked out into the main room to find the blond women on the couch. "Oh good, you look so much better now, well respectively any way" she smiled. I stifled a yawn, "thank you so much for your help I really should be going now" I tried to smile, but ended up yawning loudly instead. She giggled " your in no condition to be up" She seemed to sense my unease and added with a smile "don't worry, your safe here" For some reason I believed her, and her smile was infectious. I could feel the corners of my mouth twitch up "I wouldn't want to trouble you". "Oh its no trouble at all, well as long as you don't mind the couch" I smiled at her, "I don't mind, thank you". "Oh, silly me my names Sookie" She extended her hand that cheerful grin on her face again. She really did smile a lot, on her it looked good though, natural. I smiled too, "Dorothy" and shook her hand. She giggled, "like the Wizard of OZ". "Yeah" I looked at the floor, I always get uncomfortable when people bring that up,"my mother was reading the book when she was pregnant with me" I laughed nervously looking back up at her. "I like it". A small smile crept to my face as I stifled another yawn. Sookie laughed, "well I'll let you get some sleep, night Dorothy". "Night Sookie" I mumbled stiffing yet another yawn. I was asleep the moment my head hit the soft cushion of the couch.

My body felt stiff, I wasn't sure if it was from sleeping on the couch, or the unpleasant things that had happened the night before. I sat up contemplating if I should knock on the door I'd seen Sookie enter the previous night. I really should be getting home, my parents would start to worry. I was an adult and all, but I still lived with them and they're my parents.
Just as I was about to get up to knock on her door, the main door to the hotel room opened, and in she walked carrying a big tray full of food. "Oh good your up, I brought some food" she smiled at me. I smiled back "good morning". She laughed "good evening, its actually 5:47 pm" My eyes got big, I'd slept all day, "I really should be going". As I was getting up Sookie placed the tray on the coffee table in front of me "wont you at least have something to eat before you leave, I'd feel really bad if you fainted on your way home" She had a worried little smile on her face, and I could see blue berry pancakes among other things on the tray. It was tempting. I was having a serious internal debate when my stomach gave me away with a loud growl. Sookie laughed "have some pancakes, or what ever you like". "Thank you", I said graciously sitting down and taking the pancakes.
Half way through my pancakes, and Sookie's eggs, the door to the bedroom opened and a some what tall man with dark hair walked out. "Sookie you didn't tell me we had a guest" he smiled at us. "Oh Bill" she exclaimed as she went to him, I hadn't thought Sookie's smile could get any bigger, I was wrong. "This is Dorothy. Dorothy this is my boyfriend Bill" She was positively glowing. Bill inclined his head to me and I did the same. "It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance Miss. Dorothy". I giggle internally, he sounded like an old southern gentleman. "It is a pleasure to meet you as well Mr. Bill" I smiled up at him from where I was seated on the couch. Sookie giggled "Mr. Bill". He smiled affectionately down at her. I looked away smiling to myself, and happy when I heard a knock at the door, it was getting a bit uncomfortable.
