Sorry I haven't updated in agesss, lots of family stuff happened and school, but I am a bit rusty with this story so...any complaints or compliments :) I would love to hear them all!
I do not own True Blood!
"I will drink from you." I said and a smile spread across his beautiful face.
"Well then we had better get started."
I smiled softly and stood up, hobbling a little from the my lack of balance and Eric rushed over to me, gently helping me sit back down.
"Why are you trying to stand lover, you should be lying down and relaxed." Eric remarked, helping me lie back against the multiple hospital pillows.
"I'm a waitress, I am used to being on my feet." I chuckled quietly and he shook his head and brought his wrist to his mouth to bite, but stopped slowly and grabbed my face and kissed me intensely. I didn't just feel it on my lips, I felt it everywhere in my body. The aches and pains went away for a moment and I was filled with utter euphoria. He pulled away and I groaned as he did.
"Why do you keep ending kisses Mr. Northman?" I asked grinning.
"Trust me when I say this Sookie, I didn't want to, especially this time." he said sinisterly and he gently bit his wrist handing it to me, and I sucked the blood out. The first time I did this to him, it was all a trick...and his blood tasted cheap and like an old bag of nickels, but right now...he tasted like sex and candy. I moaned while I sucked and he did the same, we were having an intimate moment and I knew our relationship...whatever it was...would never be the same. I was happy to accept that. He began caressing my hair and I looked up at him and let go of his arm, wiping remnants of blood from my mouth. I suddenly felt much better, my body that felt all broken moments ago, didn't feel broken anymore. I smiled at him and he at me.
"Now what?" I asked him. He stood up and I followed, ripping the IV's out of my arm and smiling. I felt a million times better and I was so ready to be out of the hospital.
"Now we leave." he said putting his jacket around me and picking me up in one swift motion, carrying me out the window. I closed my eyes and opened to realize we were flying, midair. I held my head buried in his chest and he laughed. "Sookie, are you scared of heights?"
"No, thats crazy talk." I said chuckling gripping his shoulders tighter, he had nice shoulders.
We had been in air for maybe 20 minutes until we reached our "destination." We landed at what I assumed was his "home." It was ginormous, and incredibly unique. I smiled at him when we had landed and he smirked.
"You like my home?" he asked and I stared at the exterior wide-eyed. It was 3 stories, maybe even 4 and white wooden. It had three wrap around porchs. It was like a modern spun version of every house in Bon Temps. It was so Eric-y.
"Its so beautiful." I smiled and he grabbed his keys and opened the garage door, entering slowly, he glanced around the kitchen and then grabbed my hand
"I wanted to make sure the maid went home, she is loyal, but incredibly nosey. I never bring woman home, so she would be all over you." he said and I nodded in agreement the reason I was here was for safety. I was here in hiding. The maid didn't need to know any of that.
"Understood." I said and looked hesitantly in the living room. A giant screen tv hung above the fireplace and bookshelves lined the walls. I was enamored at the collection.
"So are you ready for bed?" he asked me like I was a five year old being sent of to bed before it was even dark outside.
"Not even...I think I have drank a lot of vampire blood and just spent a whole lot of time in the hospital bed ridden. I want to stay up real late and do something." I grinned sheepishly and he gave me an eyebrow raise.
"What kind of something?" he said with a dirty tease and I rolled my eyes.
"Eric Northman, get your mind out of the gutter." I uttered, even though what he was thinking was probably exactly what I was thinking to. We sat on the couch and he turned on the tv, putting it on some trash reality show, but my eyes were drawn to him and him only. I stared at his profile, trying not to turn my head completely, even though he probably new I was looking at him. He was just so beautiful, and so impossible to understand. I hated his guts a few days ago, and now...now I didn't know. Now everything was a mystery. He interrupted my day dream.
"Sookie if you wanted to stare at me, all you had to do was simply ask." he said smiling and I huffed.
"Ass" he began laughing and I joined in...people may have been after me, and things may have been hard...but laughing with a 1000 year old vampire sure is the best medicine.
