Enjoy JoxX...
On the fridge where loads of take away menus, I raised my eyebrow at Eric, "The whole house is staged, so they think a single human male lives here," he answered my unasked question.
"Ah I see," I took my time picking the menu I wanted to order from; Eric got me a coke and himself a warm Real Meal. We settled down in front of the TV, "So what will it be?" he asked dialling the number.
"I'll have one portion of moushu chicken, beef noodles, crispy chilli beef no garlic, hot and spicy tofu, sweet and sour king prawns, salt and pepper sea bass, mushroom fried rice ooh and tell them to give us some of those fortune cookies too," I smiled as Eric relayed the order, then hanging up.
"Lover are you expecting guests?" he asked eyebrows raised.
"I am a fairy, when I eat I eat, magic uses up a lot of energy after all it is nearly all pure energy, I haven't eaten all day, I could eat a scabby horse."
"You didn't eat that much at the dinner the other night, were you not provided for adequately?"
"I know that's because I am trying to pass as human and I had already eaten at home before we went out so it was fine," I smiled at him for his concern. It was sweet, actually.
Eric suddenly looked like a little boy that was up to no good and I loved it, when he sprang up from the couch and selected a DVD putting the disk in. He lay back down on the couch and took me in his arms, the DVD came to life, 'The life of Brian,' I giggled, kissing the side of his head.
Soon the food arrived; I sat up cross legged on the couch the life of Brian playing in the background. Eric put all the boxes on a tray, he was fascinated with the chop sticks, because of the size of the order there were more pairs than one.
Have you ever tried to teach a thousand year old Vampire to use chop sticks? I have. He was useless and getting more and more aggravated by the second so in the end I enchanted them you should have seen his face when he could do it, I didn't have the heart to tell him what I'd done.
Eric fed me, I moaned at how good the food tasted, I am sad when I say I think it tasted better because Eric was feeding it to me? "I like feeding you lover, I like that you enjoy your food," he said.
"Thanks," I mumbled.
Eric caught a bit of sauce on the side of my mouth wiping it and pushing it into my lips, I bit down on his fingers, sucking his thumb. "Fuck Sookie, stop... mercy... I only have so much control," he groaned, I release his thumb, with a pop and a smirk.
"Have you seen these before?" I asked picking up a fortune cookie shaking it.
Eric shook his head, "open them up inside is a fortune, it is fun," I took one and showed him, I cracked the cookie in half taking out the slip of paper.
I cleared my throat putting on a Chinese accent, "Aw you will be blessed in all you do," I giggled.
"I am sure you will be," Eric said, opening one of his own he began laughing.
"Let me see, let me see," I tried to snatch it out of his hand, bouncing up and down on the couch as giddy as a school girl.
"No, I will read it," he said, holding it high up out of reach.
"Do the voice," I clapped my hands. He cocked an eye brow at me, "Aw come on do the voice, it's just us here, pleeeease," I grinning like a mad woman.
"Aw..." he began but burst out laughing, making me laugh even more. He blanked his face, "You will have a long life," I started killing myself, it was just so funny.
I was just looking at him, "I want to hear the sound of your laughter every day," I stroked his face with my hand he leaned into. Eric laid us down, held us together. I must have fallen asleep, because the next thing I knew, Eric was gently shaking me awake.
"Sookie, I am sorry to wake you, you look so peaceful, but if I am to drive you home before dawn we are cutting it close," Eric said as I rubbed my tired eyes.
"I'll pop home," I yawned, slowly getting up.
"Thank you for saving me," I began, standing in his embrace.
"Technically it was my blood that cause you harm in the first place," he reminded me looking down on me, his big arms round me. Mmm.
"Oh yeah, so it was. I think it was more like fifty-fifty blame, technically it was screwy Fae mage that landed me in hospital. Thanks for tonight, dinner, everything it was just perfect, I had a really goodtime."
"You're welcome, I too have found that I enjoyed the evening very much," he leaned in to my ear first placing a kiss there, "especially that talented mouth of yours," he added in a low sexy voice.
I blushed, Eric nuzzled my neck, so I spoke quickly before I lost my nerve or jumped him whichever came first, "tomorrow dinner is on me," I bit my lip, "pick you up at 8?" I asked.
"It's a date, lover,"
"Dress casual, you want me to pick you up from here or the club?"
"Club, I need to interview some transplants to the area first,"
"Okay," I leaned in and kissed him. Then I popped out, arriving in my bedroom a few moments later. Everything in my room was straightened out, thanks Great Granddaddy. I honestly felt I was floating I was so happy I could burst.
I curled up into bed after brushing my teeth, taking a big handful of Eric's shirt to my face and sniffing it that is how I fell asleep, surrounded in Eric's manly scent. Did I mention I am so screwed?
I was rudely awakened by Amelia riding my waist, "Oh oh oh Sookie let me bite you," she put on a deep manly voice.
"Bitch get off me, you're insane," I groaned, my voice sleep laden.
"Bitch? Oh I didn't nearly just die on my best friend, only to blow off said best friend for Viking hawtness. Don't you call me a bitch, I neeeed details, your fucking engaged. Don't think I am forgiving you anytime soon, you been holding out on me, now spill," Amelia was kicking the covers, lying down next to me.
I threw my arm across my face with a groan, sooo not a morning person. Then I thought of Eric and I couldn't wipe the ten foot wide grin off my face. Yeah screwed, totally fucking screwed.
Eric POV
I lay looking at her, sleeping on my couch in my home no less, she was so beautiful. She had really placed her trust in me not only had she allowed me to take her to my home, but she had fallen asleep too.
She stirred, mumbling something, then she sighed and her breathing evened out. She captivated and fascinated me even. I couldn't help but smile as she lay in my clothes reeking of my scent. I wanted to mark her as mine in every possible way. That thought alone should have questioning myself, my sanity. Instead my mind drifted to earlier seeing her body for the first time. God she was spectacular, her figure was full, womanly and ripe. Damn it was everything I loved a woman's shape to be and more. Perfect fucking perfect.
With those thoughts my cock sprang to attention, my mouth watered at the thought, my lips on her wet pussy, she tasted sublime, that taste was only rivalled by her sweet, sweet blood. I don't know what came over me when I told Niall I'd take her home, I just wanted to be near her. At the time I told myself I wanted to be near my blood as she had taken quite a lot. As we lay here I had to admit it was something more, I had enjoyed myself more tonight than I had in the past hundred years.
I let out a ragged breath as I remembered her sucking my cock, fuck I had been serious I would buy her friend a car, I'd buy him two. I wasn't lying when I told her it was the best blow job I'd ever had, she had really surprised me- again, my mind added.
When I had come home the night before I had been livid, Pam had come straight over trying to sooth my savaged beast when I finally told her what Sookie had done she was speechless, neat trick for Pam as she always had something to fucking say. I gone from flattered to livid, it had been a long time since my emotions had swung in such a wide arc, I really couldn't decide where they should land or settle.
"I f you don't marry her, I will," Pam had finally said.
I had expected her to be furious, to offer suggestions on where we could hide the body, she must have felt my shock as she explained, "She is a fucking genius, Eric she is only twenty four years old, the patience, the skill for someone so young. If she wasn't a fairy I'd get down on my knees and swear fealty, can you even imagine what she will be like in a hundred years time, no wonder she is Niall's favourite and in line for the throne of Fae at only one eighth Fae, she is extraordinary and the hottest piece of ass I've seen in a loooong time."
My child had really given me a lot to think about, "carry on," I said seeking her counsel and unique perspective, my child truly was an asset.
"What she did was high handed, but if in the same position would you have done it so differently, if you wanted her. Fuck a zombie, she pushed the great revelation, that is some serious shit," she was laughing now. "I want to worship at her fucking feet...," Pam really began laughing her ass off. "She got Vampires everywhere to drink liquid shit, not only did she push the revelation she bloody profited from it too...genius. I don't know what I want more; to fuck her or be her."
"Mmm, well that's one way to look at I suppose,"
"Dear Abby say's when something causes us to react in another, it because we see something of ourselves in them. I don't know her well but from what I have seen so far she is awfully like a Viking I know," Pam smirked, "perhaps your nose is out of joint, because of the sheer scale of her manipulations?"
"Pam," I had growled low in warning.
Ah the sight of Sookie in my shirt, she tried to teach me to use the chop sticks when I could finally do it, I knew she had enchanted then because they were slippery little fuckers. I let her think I didn't know she had bespelled the chop sticks because she looked so happy for me.
The fortune cookies; the way her eye's shone and glimmered like sapphires her smile lit up the room. Sapphires that reminds me Pam said it was custom in the human world to give your intended an engagement ring. I am glad I hadn't ordered it already, I felt I knew her better now and wanted to give her something that reflected her more.
I hated having to wake her, but I was cutting it close to get her home and back here in time for dawn. I didn't trust her enough to leave myself vulnerable during my daytime rest, by letting her stay. What disturbed me the most was I could see myself trusting her to allow her to sleep next to me during the day time, in fact I wanted it.
I had a promise of dinner, for the next night. After I said goodbye to her I spent some time on the internet. Ordered some flowers for her, I finished my night by taking the covers of the bed we had enjoyed each other on down to my sleeping chamber. I wanted to wake up smelling her. I wanted to drown in her scent.
Sookie's POV
Amelia I love her to bits but today it was like a particularly annoying cricket had made a home in my ear chirp fucking chirp chirp. Can you tell I am so not a morning person?
Hey ho if you can't beat them join em, so I filled her in on near death by Virgin alarm, saving water by bathing together, checking sexual compatibility (not all of it of course, I am a lady), the life of Brian in Chinese.
Also as Amelia was my chief confessor I told her all about the night we got engaged and the blood exchange swear talking about it was setting my coochie on fire. Amelia had simply quirked an eyebrow at me; then offer me a roll in the hay for old time's sake. I of course reminded her it had been strictly a onetime deal, purely for experimental reasons- hey I am in collage sue me. A-nd she fucking pouted and squeezed my tit. That led to a massive pillow fight which Gran broke up.
"Girls, Girls," she yelled full of smiles, from the door.
"Gran, she's being mean to me," I said in a baby voice, pouting my lower lip setting it a quiver.
"She started it," Amelia shot back faking a huff, arms across her chest.
"Oh I remember summers, when fights like this were the real deal," Gran chuckled, I couldn't help but smile when I seen little me and little Amelia running around in Gran's mind, God we were cute.
"Sookie what on earth are you wearing?" Gran suddenly asked.
I looked down on Eric's shirt which was now hanging of my shoulder, I blushed crimson, Amelia the little witch laughed, "oh oh busted," she giggle, covering her face with the duvet.
"It's Eric's, I only had that hospital gown... erm he lent it to me," I fumbled looking at my lap. Oh God the human Southern belle in me was cringing. The fairy Princess in me wanted to confess all and tell anyone who would listen, what a great lover Eric was. Yeah sometimes the two worlds I bridged were just so darn different.
"Mmm. Very well brunch is in the kitchen I made the works and fresh baked biscuits Amelia you love so much," she smiled as she exited my room.
I looked at Amelia, "yum," we both said in unison scooting off the bed.
I pulled my robe on but refusing to part with Eric's shirt, just yet. We had just sat down for breakfast when the door bell rang, "sit gran I'll get it," I sent out my telepathy seeing it was a human delivery man.
"Morning," I answered the door, with a smile as I already seen what he had to deliver in his mind.
"Miss Stackhouse?"
"Yeah that's me,"
"This are for you," he handed me a huge arrangement of red roses.
Oh God I am so screwed, I was wearing the cheesiest grin when I entered the kitchen.
"Oh wow, easy on the eye and he buys flowers," Grans eyes twinkled.
"Open the card," Amelia squeaked.
Lover,
While on the cutting edge I thought I'd keep up the originality theme with red roses after all they are my favourite colour.
I hope when you see then you will think of me.
See you tonight trouble,
I am breathless with anticipation.
E~
Oh God my tummy was doing actual belly flops, I let out a giggle at breathless comment since Eric didn't breathe. My mind was going into over drive at how I could play with him? Now I had Amelia here I just couldn't kick her out nor would I want too, she would have to come with me. Mmm, you could hear the gears whirling in my mind.
Amelia was roaring with laughter, "I thought you had it bad before but Oh-My-God. You need to get a grip of yourself." She was totally right of course, I needed to get a grip of myself before I swoon right off the planet. Yeah, I had it bad.
"Leave her alone, I think it's wonderful he seems such a nice young man," I had to laugh at my Gran as Eric was over a thousand years old only Gran could call a thousand year old Vampire nice and young in the same sentence.
Breakfast/ brunch was amazing as always, Gran such a good cook I missed her home cooking when Amelia and I had been at school in Switzerland. When we were done we showered and dressed. Gran had asked if I could pick up some groceries and run a couple of errands for her too. So off we went.
"You know I am meeting Eric tonight," I bit my lip, "I may have offered him dinner on me," I blushed.
"Can I watch?"
"Amelia! God you are awful. No. but I did think you could come with, we could dress like fang bangers and mess with the Sherriff," I smiled waggling my eyebrow
"I knew there was a reason, I love you so much," her eyes lit up, Amelia loved to dress up. "So Delores? Total goth chick's, vampire wanna be ho's?" Amelia asked in a really crappy New York accent.
"You know it Mildred," I winked at her. Delores and Mildred where the names we use when we were up to no good, just because we found them funny. Also there was this one time, Amelia turned us into two old ladies totally by accident she had been trying to turn us into cats so we could sneak past the dorm guards at our school, to go out clubbing. Let's just say clubbing is not so much funny when your old, wrinkly and got clicky hips but that night Delores and Mildred were born.
We finished up the rest of Gran's errands, I half thought about calling into Merrlottes but seeing as I was going to have to spend the next three nights there I squished those thoughts down.
"Amelia, I know I've already asked you when I was like thirteen, but would you be my maid of honour?"
"I already said yes, your bachelorette party is gonna be off da hook!" From Amelia's mind, I could see allsorts there, it scared me. I clamped down my shields-tight.
"I need to call Quinn, start the events planning, I'll need to include Eric's child Pam in that, so remind me to call him after I've got a night we all can sit down and hammer that out."
"Cool, what she like?"
"She's kinda cool. I get the impression she lives for teasing Eric. Pretty blond, blue eyed," I answered I wasn't really sure about Pam yet, she had been fun when I got rid of Eric's little playthings but that was one I'd watch me back for. The female is always the deadlier of the species and it didn't matter what the species I had found.
What are Amelia and Sookie up to? How will they mess with Eric?
