I want to thank you all for the reviews! I'm glad everybody loves this story and love Bella. She does kick some ass, huh? Haha. Anyways, not this chapter, but the next will be the long waited love scene. Though, it does get rather heated in this one. :DDD Haha, don't worry, it won't be too graphic. I want to thank everyone who didn't lose faith with me. Hopefully, I'll be done with this story soon, maybe. And, there WILL be a sequel and I know exactly what I'm gonna do. It's gonna be TOTALLY different from all the other stories I've read and loved. Hope you won't be disgusted.
I have to say, what I saw of Eric on Sunday's episode, he looks VERY GOOD naked! Haha.
My Immortal
When you cried, I'd
wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all
of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But
you still have all of me
I watched as Godric gripped Lorena around the neck and slowly pulled her sharp fangs from my throat, I saw Eric close behind him with murder in his eyes. Lorena let out short, raspy pants, as Godric growled, "Retract. Your. Fangs."
Eric came over to me and helped me off the table, all the while I was sending Lorena death glares; Eric grabbed the back of my neck. I glanced up at him and his eyes said it all. Be nice. Rolling my eyes, I turned them back to Lorena and Godric, who still had her by the throat.
"I neither know nor…care who you are, but in this area and certainly this nest, I am thee authority. Do you understand?" Godric asked, quietly.
"Yes, sheriff," Lorena admitted, shakily.
Godric released her and she sagged, Godric looked at me. "This human has proven herself to be courageous and loyal friend to our kind. And, yet you treat her like a child does a dragonfly, pulling off wings for sport. No wonder they hate us."
Lorena glanced at me. "She provoked me."
Godric hunched forward. "And, you provoke me. You've disrupted the peace in my own home. I could snap you like a twig (AN: I love how he says it with his accent!) Yet I haven't, now why is that?"
Lorena said, shakily, "It's your choice."
"Indeed it is. You're an old vampire, I can tell. You've had hundreds of years to better yourself, yet you haven't. You're still a savage and I fear for all of us; humans and vampires, if this behavior persists." He turns to bill. "You seem to know her."
Bill sighed. "Yes, sheriff."
"Escort her from the nest," Godric commanded. He looked down at Lorena. "I wish you out of my area by dawn."
Eric tugged on one of my curls. "Are you okay?"
I glanced up at him and smiled. "Yeah, I'm fine."
"It seems you're learning to use your gift," Eric commented, idly.
I shrugged. "I was pissed and that makes it seem to work without me having to really try."

Eric wouldn't let me out of his sight for the remainder of the evening; he claimed that I seemed to attract trouble wherever I was. So here I was, standing next to him, bored out my mind, as he chatted with another vampire about something that I had no intention of understanding or caring about. I glanced up to see a stranger, who looked vaguely familiar walk into the living room are wearing a thick, brown jacket. I furrowed my eyebrows, as I studied him. I noticed Jason walk over to him, but he seemed very nervous about something. I gripped Eric's arm, he glanced down at me.
"Excuse me everyone." The whole room went quiet.
"If I could have your attention, my name is Luke Macdonald. I'm a member of the Fellowship of the Sun and I have a message for you all from Reverend Steve Newlin," Luke growled, unzipping his jacket to reveal chains, stakes, and explosives. I gasped; as Eric shoved me to the ground just as Luke pressed the detonator.

I groaned, as I struggled to sit up, but something extremely heavy was forcing me to stay on the ground. I sighed, as I began to slap at Eric. "Will you get off me?"
I managed to roll him off me; I pulled myself off the ground and gazed around at the disaster surrounding us. Vampires and humans were moaning in pain, some were dead. I spotted Sookie across the room, sighed in relief when I saw her pull herself up. She saw me and I knew the same thing was running through her head. I've only known her like a week and a half, but she's become my best friend. I glanced back at Eric when he groaned, I kneeled down beside him.
"Are you alright?" I asked, concerned.
He grimaced, as he sat up. "I'll live."
I watched, as his body pushed out the silver bullets and fall to the floor. "You're like Wolverine."
"You are a strange one, Isabella." Eric said, after looking at me funny.
I smiled cheekily at him. "I know, it's a gift!"
"Everyone, please," Isabel called out.
"They may come back, go to the hotel Camilla, they've been alerted. Security is in place." Godric announced, looking around.
I watched Godric, as everyone began to move. He glanced up at me and met my eyes; a small smile graced his lips. Eric and I were the only ones who remained with Godric; I knew Eric could sense his maker's pain. My hand slipped into Eric's and squeezed.

I sighed, as I slipped into my hot, bubble bath. I closed my eyes, as I leaned my head back and just let myself soak. I had nearly died three times in the same night, now THAT is a record, if I say so myself. I felt my muscles relax, as the hot water worked its magic. My eyes fluttered open when I heard a slight noise, I gasped when I saw Eric sitting on the side of the tub.
"What the hell, Eric?" I yelped, slipping further into the water.
He smirked, lazily. "It's not like I can see anything good anyways. I wanted to make sure you were alright."
I glared, as my cheeks heated up. "A simple knock and saying that through the door would suffice!"
He chuckled, as he dipped his fingers into the water and I felt them brush against my arm. "It's quite warm."
I glared. "Get out, Eric! I was having a relaxing time, if you haven't noticed; I almost died three times today!"
Eric leaned towards me; I felt my heart began to beat like crazy. "I realize that, yes, but you want me to join you. It's your mind that's telling you no. Ready to start off where we left off." He whispered that last part against my lips.
I looked up at him with heavy lidded eyes, as I gnawed on my bottom lip. Eric grabbed my chin; I paused in what I was doing and nearly had a heart attack when Eric took over for me. I couldn't deny this any longer, I wanted Eric and I wanted him now. I pulled Eric on top of me, laughing as the water splashed over the side of the tub and flooded the bathroom floor. I weaved my fingers through his hair and crashed my lips onto his; Eric instantly began to take action. I gasped, as Eric slipped his tongue into my mouth and totally took over on the kiss. My hands were too busy working on getting his wet clothes off; they didn't seem to want to come off, so I slipped my hands under his tank top. Eric growled, dug my nails into his back and wrapped my legs around his waist. He pulled himself up with me wrapped around him. He stepped out of the tub and went to leave the bathroom. I broke our kiss and began kissing and sucking on his neck; Eric shoved me against the wall before he even got to the bedroom. I cried out when I felt him through his jeans, as he gripped my ass and hoisted me higher so, that we were pressed up against each other. I moaned when Eric started to rock his hips, I tugged on his hair, as I gasped out his name.
"Hmmm," Eric murmured into my ear.
I whimpered when he rolled his hips back and snapped them against mine. "Oh, god! Hurry, Eric."
I felt his fangs against my neck, as his hand slipped to his belt. "You wish is my command."
Just as he was about to unzip his jeans, there was a knock on the door. "What?"
"Is Bella there?" I heard Sookie ask.
I groaned. "You gotta be kidding me?"
Eric released me and I slid down his body, I couldn't help but shiver. "Just give me a second."
I grabbed the white robe that hung on the back of the door, slipped it on, and belted it before walking out the bathroom. I crossed the room to the door and opened it. "Are you okay, Sookie?'
She nodded. "Yeah, I just couldn't sleep. I mean, I spoke with Jason, but still can't."
I held the door open wider. "Come one in."
She slid past me and I shut the door. "I'll be there in a second; I just need to speak with Eric."
"She's staying," Eric growled the second my bedroom door closed.
I nodded. "She couldn't sleep, Eric."
He glowered. "Well, why couldn't Bill just try with what we were going to do?'
I sighed, stood on my tippy toes and kissed his lips. "You'll be fine."
Eric pulled me flushed against him, as I started to pull away and gave me a long and intense kiss. I stuttered, as we both pulled away. He smirked, kissed my forehead and whispered, "Think about it."
I staggered over to my bedroom, suddenly breathless.

Let me tell you something, I do not like Nan Flanagan, she is a bitch! Eric nudged me every so often, but I still kept on glaring at her.
"Do you have any fucking idea of the PR mess you've made?" She demanded with her cold, blue eyes on Eric. "And, who has to clean that fucking shit up. Me, not you, but me."
"Oh, I'm crying on the inside," I couldn't help it; it was like I had word diarrhea.
"Do you know who I am?" She demanded, harshly.
I nodded. "Yeah, a bitch is what you are."
Godric stepped in. "Isabella, be silent."
Nan glared at me, challenging me, but Eric's hand on my thigh kept me from leaping up and tearing a whole new hole for her to breathe from, even if she didn't technically need to breath.
"I should drain every one of you bastards," Nan hissed, her eyes were on me though.
"Stan went after the church on his own. None of us knew anything about it," Eric said.
Nan scoffed. "Oh, really? Because everyone who knew Stan in the last three hundred years knew that he had a thing about slaughtering humans, but you his nest mates and his sheriff, had no clue?"
Isabel defended Godric. "And, how were we supposed to know that this time he meant it?"
Nan looked at Isabel. "Not my problem." She glanced at Godric. "Yours."
"What is your problem?" I demanded, disgusted at her behavior.
Her eyes met mine. "At the moment, you are."
"You can't just blame everything on Godric for another vampire's stupidity," I accused, standing up.
She, also, stood. "Yes, I can. You wouldn't understand being a human."
I narrowed my eyes. "So what? Oh, I'm human, so that automatically makes me incompetent?"
Nan sneered. "Oh, Eric, you've been teaching your pet big words."
I snarled. "I am NO ONE's pet, you cold blooded bitch!" I didn't even notice that everything in the room was shaking.
"Isabella, please, leave," Godric spoke up, glancing at me.
I looked at him and then, at Eric. "Yes, Godric."
I slammed the door on my way out. As I stalked down the hall, the lights kept flickering on and off and the doors were rattling.
It's not as good as the others, but I really wanted to get this out of the way so I could focus on the next one. Isabella will not be present when Godric dies, just so you know! Review!
