True Blood

A Mother's Unconditional Love

Chapter 4


Pam shifted uncomfortably inside her coffin, growling a little in frustration. Apparently the creature was not going to allow her to sleep today. Apparently it felt a dire need to do summersaults and a little kickboxing inside Pam's uterus. "Fine! You win!" Pam announced, throwing her hands in the air in defeat, "I'm up!" The tumbles continued as Pam ascended the stairs to microwave a packet of blood; Eric has delivered just for her. After a few long drags of blood the gymnastics performance came to a slow decline till it stopped all together.

'Finally!' Pam thought, trying to be careful with her movements as she made her way back to the basement. Once she was back in her casket, she couldn't get comfortable. Pam groaned in anger as the parasite began to move again. "You are making this really difficult, for me, you know?" Pam groaned, placing her hand on her stomach, "Can't you stay still just a few hours so I can sleep?"

That's when she realized, the moment when she started speaking the movements ceased. Could it hear her? Did it like the sound of her voice? The idea baffled Pam. However, if her voice gets the little monster still she'd gladly talk it to death. Pam eventually hummed a tune to her stomach until she was finally able to fall asleep.

She was awoken by an uncomfortable pain, which subsided as quickly as it came. Climbing from her casket, she rubbed her lower back. Damn, that really kind of hurt. Walking to her closet, she selected her attire for the night, avoiding the covered mirror. She didn't want to be tempted to look at herself. Last time she broke down. Eric had told her he loved her no matter what her body looked like and always would. This comforted Pam, and helped stop her overflow of tears.

Pam heard Eric's voice as she once again ascended the stairs towards the bar. The parasite seemed to get excited at the sound of its father's voice. Did this mean this thing already hated Pam, before it was even out of utro?

When Pam entered the Bar, the lights suddenly flickered on, and people were leaping from their hiding places. "Surprise!"

She just stood there and stared, what had they done with the bar? It was decorated with pink and blue streamers, and same colored balloons scattered everywhere. There was a small table decorated with a rattle covered table cloth. It was graced with, fruit trays, vegetable trays, mini sandwiches, punch and True Bloods. As well as blood packets for Pam and a vampire baby cake that said congratulations on the new baby.

Pam stared at the word, baby, was that really what this thing inside her was? Was it a baby? Or was it something entirely different. Other creatures had babies, vampires weren't supposed to.

Eric's arm pulled her from her thoughts as it wrapped its way around her waist. Eric smiled at her, before placing his lips to her. "You look beautiful."

"As beautiful as a beached whale can look." Pam replied as Eric rolled his eyes at her. Eric took Pam by her hand and led her to a chair, "Sit."

She complied, all Pam could do as Sookie, Ginger, Jessica and a reluctant Tara played weird baby games that Pam didn't understand the point of. She leaned over to Eric and whispered, "What the hell are they doing?"

Eric smiled at her, "Apparently it's customary on occasions of a new baby, for humans to play games such as this."

"These are games?"

"Apparently so." Eric chuckled, gently, as Pam looked at him, "Entertaining isn't it?"

Pam sat back in her chair feeling very uncomfortable with the whole thing. Placing her hand on her stomach as another wave of pain struck her. Eric noticed her flinch and was instantly alarmed. He took Pam's hand and looked at her, "Are you alright?"

She nodded as the pain subsided once again. The light pain in her pelvis caused her to shift a little in her chair. She smiled at Eric reassuringly as he watched her closely. Once the games that Pam refused to participate in were completed, everyone began to hand her gifts.

She had received vampire themed onesies galore, bath essentials for newly born teacups, blankets, Bibs, toys and diapers. No one was sure if Pam would need them, but they wanted her to be prepared. Eric smiled at Pam and squeezed her hand, "Come, I too have a present for you."

Pam allowed Eric to lead her down stairs and what she saw brought tears to her eyes. It was a crib, not just any crib, but a beautifully handmade white crib. A blackout curtain hung around it that was tided back with Pink and Blue ribbons. Above the crib was also had a custom, Moon and Star Mobil. Then resting on the headboard of the crib was the rabbit Pam bought.

Eric brushed the blood from her cheeks with his thumb, "Don't you like it?"

"It's perfect." She replied as more tears flowed from her eyes as she pressed a tender kiss upon his lips.

"Then what is the matter Pam?" Eric asked, wrapping his strong arms protectively around her.

"Everyone is so excited about this… parasite…" she whimpered, "and I… I…."

"And you're not?" Eric exhaled slowly he had hoped Pam would have come around by now.

"What if it hates me…" she cried into his chest, "It's genetically programed to hate me."

Eric's eyes widened, as he slowly cupped Pam's chin so she would meet his gaze, "Is that what you are afraid of? You think the child will hate you?"

Pam nodded as fresh tears graced her cheeks, "I despised my own mother…."

Eric brushed her tears away and cupped her face in his hands, "First, of all, Pamela, you are NOT your mother. Secondly, it's not possible for this child to hate you. This child is going to be so lucky to have you as its mother."

"How do you know?" Pam asked as her tears caused her eyes to glisten.

"Because," he said, gracing her lips with a kiss, "I know you. And I know this child is going to love you as much as I love you."

Pam nodded at Eric, who smiled at her, "Come, we should get back to the party."

As Pam returned with Eric, this time warming up to the idea of the creature in her uterus, which was until, the beast seemed to find another way to humiliate her. Pam stood in horror as the warm liquid continued to make its way down her leg and onto the floor of the bar.
