My awakening Chapter 10
AN: Sorry for the shortness. I had a very hard time writing this chapter. I kept getting distracted and rewriting it. Think of it as a filler or something. I´m already busy with new chapters, but it might take a little time. If you send me reviews, I´ll promise to write faster. Enjoy.

Was it him? No it couldn't be, he would never come to NY. But Jason had told him where I was. Fuck. It can't happen right now, when everything was just so good. My shop was a success and Eric and I were happier than ever. It had been a month since the phone call from Jason and the doctor's appointment. The baby thing wasn't haunting me much because right now I wasn't even ready for one. I'd deal with it when I needed to.
Right now, I was at work and had just glanced outo f the window to see Bill looking at me. I closed my eyes for a moment, to make sure that I wasn't imagining it. When I opened my eyes, he was gone. Yup, crazy Sookie is imagining her ex now. It would've been bad if it was real though. I shook it off and continued helpng the customers.
When it was almost closing time, I got a text from Eric:
"R U coming to my place 2nite? I'll finish at the club around 10, you can wait for me in bed..."
"OK. I just need to run by my place to grab some stuff. C U soon." I texted him back.
I quickly closed the shop and drove to my apartment building. I walked to the second floor and got to my door. Something was wrong. The door had scratches on it and it was open. What the fuck? I pushed the door a little and it revealed my apartment. It looked awful, furniture had been pushed over and paint had been splashed all over the place. I move forward, into the living room and see the writing on the wall
"We will get you!" What was that supposed to mean? I had no idea, but it spooked me. A lot. I dialed Eric and he picked up on the second ring.
"Miss me already lover?"
I sighed "Someone broke into my apartment." silence on the other side. I continued "I don't think they took anyhthing. They just messed the place up."
"I'm coming there. Wait for me." he said and hung up. I sat down on a chair that wasn't pushed over and waited.
Eric was there in less than five minutes. He almost ran into the room stopped abruptly, seeing the wall. Suddenly, he looked angry "Who did this?" I shrugged. Why would someone break into my apartment? I had no enemies in NY. "I think we should call the police. This is a threat and we've got to know who did this, I can't think of anyone that would hate you enough to threaten you."
I shrugged "You call. I want to get out of here as fast as I can." He took out his phone and called the police. While he was talking, I looked around the apartment a little more, trying to figure out who had been here. It was bizarre, who would do something like that? I tried to make a list of people who didn't like me: Jason, Bill, Lorena (Bill's mistress), Ginger (she had quit fangtasia). That was all that I could remember at the moment. I had a sickly feeling that I really saw Bill this morning at my shop. If it was true, then it was Bill who had broken into my house. But tThe message was plural,. Tthere must've been one person more.
"I'm pretty sure that one of the people was Bill. I saw him this morning from the window of my shop. At first, I thought that I was imagining it but this is like him. There was probaby one person more, because the message says we"
Eric shook his head "Fucking Compton! Can't he just leave you alone? Hasn't he done enough?" I shrugged. Then the cops arrived. They asked all kinds of questions, but let us go soon enough. I was exhausted and we fell to bed as soon as we got home.

What was that awful smell? It smelled like... smoke! Fuck, Sookie must be cooking early again. I opened my eyes and saw Sookie lying beside me. Maybe Pam had broken in and thought that it would be funny to start cooking early in the morning. I got up from the bed and made my way downstairs to the kitchen. It was empty, but smoke was coming from the living room. Not thinking about it, I quickly ran there and saw a man standing by the window, trying to get out. I grabbed the man by his collar and pulled him back from the window. I also saw a foot, stuck to the windowframe. It was a woman's leg, wearing a high heeled shoe. I pulled the idiot by the foot and dragged her inside. It was fucking Ginger!
I bumped their heads together as hard as I could and knocked them out cold. I put them down and looked around to see, what had been burning. There were burning marks on the curtains, but nothing was burning right now. Pathetic. I called the police the second time tonight. They said that they would be here in about five minutes. "Sookie" I yelled to wake her, not wanting to leave the intruders alone.
She ran down the stairs, rubbing sleep from her eyes. "What's smoking?" she asked in a confused tone when she smelled the air in the room.
"We've got company." I said, pointing to the pile of useless meat on the floor.
Sookie chuckled "Bill and Ginger. The perfect tag team."
I smirked "They are surely the two most stupid people on earth. Ginger actually wore heels tonight and Bill couldn't get the curtains on fire."
Sookie laughed and yawned at the same time "I hope we'll get done with it soon, 'cause I need sleep." I plopped down on the couch "Me too."
She sat beside me "You did a really good job, catching them. Thank you."
I hugged her "You don't have to thank me. I was saving my own ass too."
She kissed my cheek "I know, but you're still a superman."
I chuckled "Then you're my superwoman." I pulled her closer.
"Bullshit. I slept through the whole thing."
We sat on the couch until the police officers arrived. They said that Ginger and Bill would both go to jail for attempted murer. They found a gun in Bill's pocket and some gasoline in the car that they were driving. Bill and Ginger were escorted out of our lives in the back of a police car, yelling nonsense to us.
Finally having some peace, we went back to bed.
"Well, that was a busy day." Sookie sighed.
I kissed her forehead "Would you move in with me?" I asked her, wishing that she'd say yes.
She chuckled "I thought you would never ask." Thank god!
AN: So we got rid of Beel and Ginger. I plan on not bothering myself with them in this story again. Please review and check out my other story.
