Disclaimer: I don't own True Blood. (SADLY)

'What is wrong?'

Eric his tone of voice held no worry, nor any interest in her sudden change of behavior, his eyes still locked on the dancers as he spoke. Alexandria bit her lip in frustration, fear was almost consuming her. She grabbed the arms of the chair, holding on to it tightly as she tried to control her emotions, she most defiantly didn't want to alarm her maker. Her blue eyes searched the crowd once more, finding the group of girls at the bar. Their gazes fixed on Dave, including Kate.

The young vampire had no idea what her maker would do if he found out that her friend was at the bar or more importantly what he would do to her. In the small time she had spent with him Alexandria knew his mood could change in seconds. Eric was unpredictable and ruthless, it was frightening to say the least.

Mentally she cursed Kate, she told Kate she would call but the stubborn person that she was a trait that they both possessed had made her search for her nonetheless instead of waiting for her to call. Alexandria wondered how Kate had found her, she never went to a vampire bar, the chances of Kate searching here just randomly was highly unlikely.

She needed to get off the small stage, Kate would easily spot her and then all hell would break loose. If she still was human, sweat would be on her forehead in this situation. Alexandria was an excellent liar, she could talk herself out of any problem but she would bet with her undead life that the skill had died with her humanity. Her emotions would expose her if she lied to Eric, he could feel it, sense it. She needed a real excuse to leave, something that he would believe.

'I just smelled someone amazing.' She said. And it was no lie, the different scents of the people smelled wonderful, Alex wanted nothing more then take someone outside and taste some sweet blood, suck someone completely dry to the bone. She winched at her own thoughts, scaring herself for a second, but she quickly pushed it away reminding herself of the situation she was in.

Eric merely chuckled at her words, still looking at the dancers who were putting up show more for him then the people. 'You cannot drink from anybody here, let that be clear. It is officially illegal to do so, but that is a law almost no vampire lives up to. When Fangtasia closes we will find someone suitable to drink from.' Eric turned his head towards her, his mouth curling into a small smile. 'Many young ones would have lost their control by now, you have a great control over your bloodlust in such a small period of time. You should be proud of that, it separates you from the rest. '

Guilt washed over her, here Eric was complimenting her when she had gone behind his back and had broken his rules. She forced herself to smile at him before quickly gazing at the bar where the girls still stood with their backs turned against her. 'Thanks.' Alexandria replied, she shifted uncomfortably in her seat as she thought about a suitable excuse to leave, it would be anytime now the girls would turn around towards her. Frustrated Alex rubbed her eyes, pondering on what to do, she raised an eyebrow as she looked at her fingers, the tips a black color. She suddenly realized she smudged her black eyeliner, she probably looked like a panda now.

'You honestly think she is here?'

'Let's look around.'

'I'll check the toilets.' She heard Kate say. Alexandria looked down at the black tile floor in desperation, she needed to come up with something quickly or else it would escalate into something that was well behind her imagination. Once again she looked at her black fingertips, a sudden idea coming into her head. Of course! She could say she needed to redo her make-up, it would give her a chance to talk to Kate and not gain any suspicion from Eric.

She stood up as casually as possible, turning her head towards Eric who snickered a little at her new appearance. 'I'm going to redo my make-up, I look like a fucking panda.' Alexandria said as irritated as possible, slowly she walked of stage as Eric his attention was focused on the dancers again. She sighed of relief as she made it into the bathroom without getting noticed, it was empty making it more easy to talk to her friend. All she needed to do was wait for Kate to appear.

Quickly she grabbed a paper towel, making it wet with a bit of water before using it to remove the black eyeliner from her eyes. The sound of an door opening caught her attention, turning her head into the direction of the door she came eye to eye with her best friend. Kate looked her with wide eyes, shock written all over face at seeing her best friend.

'Lex.'

Hearing her friend say her precious nickname made Alex instantly throw herself at her, wrapping her arms tightly around her neck as she burried her face into Kate's hazelnut curls. 'Lex, I was fucking worried. Are you alright?' Kate said, Alex could hear she was trying to stop herself from bursting into tears. Which reminded the young vampire she needed to control her emotions also, for the sake of not being discovered.

'I'm alright, I just can't explain it right now. I said I would call you Kate, how did you find me?' She said, the sound of her voice muffled by Kate her hair. Kate broke the hug as she looked up confused, her brown eyes were filled with tears that were about to fall in any second. 'I asked Sean to track the phone, he is a genius at that stuff. And what do you mean you can't explain? we can talk about this right now! I'm here aren't I?' Kate said as she cupped Alex her face between her hands, the warmth of her skin was pleasant against Alexandria her cold. 'Jesus, you're cold as ice! Kate said as she pulled her hands back in shock, her brown eyes studying Alexandria from head to toe. 'What happened? You're going to tell me now!' She hissed angrily as a tear made its way down her cheek.

I died.

But she couldn't tell Kate that in a fucking toilet where everyone just could walk in. Not to mention Ginger who would defiantly alarm Eric. Alexandria rubbed her neck nervously as she searched for a solution, maybe she could talk to her outside. The parking lot perhaps, they could stand in the back behind a few cars and Alexandria could explain everything to her friend. But how would she get past Eric, he wasn't watching the bar like a hawk but he would surely see her disappear through the door. Alex buried her face in her hands, it was all too much to handle for her. She wanted to scream, kick and shout. It was all so unfair.

.Fuck.

Alexandria ran a hand through her blonde curls as her eyes fell on the dark blue jacket Kate was wearing, maybe if she could borrow Kate her jacket and change her hairstyle he wouldn't notice. Would he? There wasn't really a choice to make, it had to be done as her friend wouldn't take no for an answer. 'Give me your jacket.' Alex mumbled, holding out her hand towards Kate. 'What?' Kate said confused, a frown appearing on her forehead. 'Give me your jacket and wait for me at the back of the parking lot, don't tell anyone where you're going. I'll meet you in five minutes.'

Still confused Kate let her jacket fall off her shoulders, giving it to Alex who pulled it on as fast as she could, she inhaled the scent of the jacket deeply. It smelled like Kate, like strawberries and vanilla. 'Go!' Alex snapped as she caught Kate staring at her in bewilderment. Time was a precious thing right now, if she was away too long Eric would notice for sure. Kate disappeared through the door, leaving the young vampire behind with her emotions which were getting harder to control by the minute thanks to the series of events. Alexandria started to count three times to sixty, she didn't have a watch so she was forced to and besides focusing on something helped her calm down. But after four minutes she couldn't take it anymore, quickly she pulled her hair into a big bun on her head before straightening the collar of the jacket.

Here we go.

As normal as possible the young vampire stepped out of the toilets, she lowered her head a little hoping half of her head would disappear behind the large collar. The crowd was big, blending in was easy. At the corner of her eye she got a glimpse of Eric who was still sitting on the large throne. She felt a little calmer at seeing a woman sitting on his lap, he clearly was occupied by her which made Alex feel a little bit more confident about the whole situation. Maybe it will all work out. In a fast pace she made her way towards the exit of the bar, pushing herself through the large crowd.

A soft breeze greeted her as she stepped outside, she frowned as she saw the parking lot, it was full with cars and people. There was a large line outside on the right of people waiting eagerly to get in Fangtasia, her supernatural hearing picked up the different conversations, all were talking excitedly about the place, some even whispering their biting experiences of the last time with each other hoping they would get another shot at getting a set of fangs in their neck.

Alex shot a look of disgust at the line before walking off to the back of the parking lot, it was a bit darker as there were not so many street lights in the back giving it creepy look. She noticed a figure leaning against a red Audi cabriolet in the dark, seeing the brown curls glistering in the soft moon light made Alexandria immediately know it was Kate.

As Alex approached her friend she pulled the hair tie out of her hair, letting her curly blonde locks fall over her shoulders. She smiled apologetically at Kate who had folded her arms over her chest, clearly in need of her jacket in the freezing cold. 'Here you go.' Quickly she pulled off the jacket and gave it to Kate who putted it on, her gaze still fixed on Alex. 'Spit it out.'

That is easier said than done.

'I, something happened Kate. Something big.' Alex said, her voice nothing more than a soft whisper. The young vampire searched for the right words but couldn't find them, there was no right way to bring this news. Kate her face softened as she stepped closer to her friend, grabbing one of Alexandria her cold hands before speaking. 'Tell me, whatever it is let me help you with it.' Alex smiled sadly, her friend, her lovely Kate wanted to help her with something that she couldn't help her with, it was beyond her power.

'That's the problem Kate, you can't help me. This can't be fixed. This is something that will last forever.' She pointed at herself in hope Kate would understand, she didn't want to say the exact words. It would make everything more real. 'I will be here forever.'

Forever.

'Lex, your seriously not making any sense.' Kate replies, shaking her head in confusion. 'Tell me. Just say what's wrong, your starting to scare me.' The young vampire whimpered softly before resting her forehead against Kate's, forcing herself to look into her brown eyes. The last thing she wanted to do was scare her best friend but she had the feeling it was inevitable. She forced herself to say it, it needed to be done.

'I- I'm a vampire.'

Silence had fallen between them as they stood together in the dark of the night, it seemed like the whole world had come to an stop leaving them together in their own personal bubble. Alex was too afraid to look at Kate, she didn't want to see her face. She didn't want to know her reaction, she didn't want to know what she was thinking about her but Alex knew one thing for sure: Kate was afraid. She could hear her heart beating loudly, the blood rushing through her human veins with incredible speed. She inhaled Kate her scent deeply, strawberry and vanilla. Alex wondered what her blood would taste like, probably like her scent. The thought of the sweet liquid made Alex her fangs click into place. In response Kate gasped, taking a step back in fear, she lost her balance what resulted in falling onto the cold hard stone.

'Kate, please don't be afraid of me. I'm not going to hurt you.' The young vampire held in a sob as she looked at her friend in desperation. It was a stupid thing to say, if the roles were changed wouldn't she be terrified? Alex let her emotions run freely, she had lost the control she had over them at seeing her friend trembling before her. All she wanted to do was comfort her and tell her everything would be alright, but the chances of Kate letting her near her were downright zero.

'Don't, please don't hurt me.' Kate pleaded as hot tears ran down her face, the brunette crawled a little further away, her back resting against the side of an large black Range Rover. The sight of seeing her friend cry made Alexandria burst into tears, this isn't what she wanted. This wasn't the way it had supposed to go, here was her best friend, her sister cowering before her in the fear of getting sucked dry or even worse getting killed by her hands.

Alexandria held her hands up in defense, showing she meant no harm to her. 'Kate please, I'm not going to hu-' A strong scent filled her nostrils that quickly awakened the burning feeling in her fingertips which spread slowly through her whole body, Alexandria cocked her head to the side as she looked at Kate who in return sobbed loudly. 'Strawberry and vanilla.' Alex muttered, her voice almost inaudible.

Kate was bleeding, Alexandria didn't know where but somewhere on her body there was a scratch, a cut, a wound caused by her fall. Kate her scent first smelled like strong perfume but now, now it was filling the air around them, it was intoxicating to say the least. She was hypnotized by the blood, her body fully function like the animal she was made out to be. Somewhere in the back of her mind Alexandria was there, crying out in desperation for the control of her body functions but all seemed lost, just like the night at the graveyard with Eric his blood.

In a flash she was sitting beside Kate who sobbed loudly as Alex pushed some brown curls behind her ear, exposing Kate her pale neck. 'Lex please, please don't hurt me.' Her cries meant nothing to Alexandria who had bended forward, now inches away from her neck.

Suddenly a strong force lifted her up pinning her against the Range Rover, making Alexandria give a little scream in surprise. A cold hand fastened an iron grip on her arm as the other hand held onto her chin preventing her to look away from a piercing gaze, Eric his piercing gaze. She tried to wiggle free, Alex wanted nothing more than pierce her fangs into Kate's neck, but of course Eric was far too strong and held her with ease against the car. A deep growl rumbled from his chest up to his throat as gazed at Kate for a slight second who trembled in fear at the sight of maker and child. 'Now what is this?'

Snapping out of the trance the young vampire realized what she had done. Here was her friend traumatized to the bone thanks to her lack of control and not to mention an angry Eric who demanded an explanation. Her small plan had backfired her right in her face, instead of making the situation better it had gotten worse. In shame Alex lowered her gaze as a small red tear trickled its way down her pale cheek. 'I'm sorry.'

Eric held no pity for her and forced her to look up into his angry blue eyes, making Alexandria cringe in discomfort. 'What. Happened.' He hissed, his hand tightening on her arm. His didn't ask, he demanded an explanation and Alex decided to give him the full one. She had a feeling he would find it out sooner or later, telling lies would only make him angrier.

She sniffled and closed her eyes for a second, searching for the courage she so greatly lacked. 'I, I texted Kate with Gingers phone.' Eric narrowed his eyes at her waiting for her to continue, Alexandria could see he was trying to control his anger but he was failing miserably.

'sh- she found me, she traced the text, I wanted to explain everything to her, so I did. Then she fell and I smelled blood. I'm sorry Eric, I really am.' Alexandria hoped he would pity her, tell her he understood but nothing else but rage could be seen in his eyes.

'I'm impressed. There were two rules that applied to you, you have broken both of them in less than an hour.' Eric said, his tone of voice as cold as ice. Alexandria looked at him sadly, a sudden feeling of disappointment rushing through her veins. She could feel it, Eric was disappointed. Disappointed in her but the feeling soon was once again replaced with anger. 'I did not command you on these matters because I thought you could control yourself, clearly I was wrong.' He growls before letting her go, his attention now turning to Kate who still sat beside them on the ground.

Alex eyes widened as Eric stepped towards her friend, the young vampire was afraid he would kill her. Surely he was capable of anything right now. 'Eric please don't hurt her, I'm sorry!' Alexandria begged as she choked back tears. Her maker yanked Kate up by her upper arm with supernatural speed who in response cried even louder. 'Do not tempt me!' He roared at his child before forcing Kate her chin up, making her look into the ancient vampires eyes.

Alex took a step into her makers direction who narrowed his eyes at Kate, her cries had softened but the panic still remained in her eyes. 'I want you to forget about this evening. Even better, I want you to forget about Alex. You never knew her, I want you to forget everything about her. Everything.' Eric said calmly, no hint of remorse could be heard. The panic in Kate's eyes disappeared, a blank stare replacing it. Suddenly Alex realized what he was doing, he was glamouring her.

Did he just?

'No.' Alex whispered as she shook her head in denial, he didn't did he? He wouldn't dare, nobody was that cruel. But he was and he most certainly did because Kate nodded softly in response. He made her forget everything, every conversations, every secret, he made Kate forget her. He erased their friendship. 'No!' She yelled, Alexandria grabbed him by his arm, digging her nails into his skin. 'You can't do this! Make her remember! You can't just fucking do this!' He turned his head towards her, his eyes wide with fury as released his firm grip on Kate. 'I just did. Consider this a warning, the next time your friends will not only loose there memory.' Eric threatened darkly.

The sound of footsteps caught her attention, in the corner of her eye she saw her best friend walk away silently, still under the supernatural hypnosis. 'Kate!' Alexandria cried, she took a step into her direction but was pulled back roughly by Eric who's hand held an iron grip on her arm. 'Eric please.' She begged as more blood tears made its way down her face. Her maker didn't even flinch at the sight of his crying child who clearly was in pain, he only tightened the grip on her arm even more. 'In time you will understand.' He said in his usual tone of voice. Understand? What was there to understand, the only person that truly mattered to her forgot her very existence. 'I will never forgive you for this.' Alexandria spat angrily and she meant it, who was he to decide what had to become of their friendship. She hated him, she loathed him

'Good, then you will never forget.'
