I sit down at my Viking's table and rethink our conversation at the café. I wonder what Octavia knows about my destiny. I hope it's not that I am destine to die, because I will go down with a fight as I was taught to by my Gran…I guess I will just have to think of that tomorrow like Scarlett does.
Chapter 9
SPOV
I got up from the table, and put my dishes in the sink…as I wash my dishes, I begin to think about how I am going to go to work…
I know he said I could use his vette for today, but do I really want to risk driving all the way to Bon Temp in that…and then parking it at Merlottes? I mean…what if someone backs into it? Or if someone scratches it??? That is his pride and joy…his baby.
Just then my phone rang pulling me from my thoughts….
"Hello?"
"Sook…it's Sam, hey I just now realized that I booked too many waitresses for today. So I was wondering if you would like to take tonight off?"
"Sam, did Eric call you and tell you to call me?"
"No, why would he? Are you in some sort of trouble again Sook???"
I guess Eric didn't tell him to give me tonight off…well I am tired and I would like another night off…so I guess I don't have to work tonight…
"Sorry Sam, no I'm not in trouble…hate to disappoint you…"
"Ha ha Sook…I love to hear you aren't in trouble…so what do you think? Is it ok if you take today off?"
"Yeah, no problem. I am a little tired anyways…so it will be nice to rest today."
"Ok, see you soon Sook!"
"Bye Sam"
Wow, I guess I get an extra day off…what to do first…tan. Yes its been too long since I have laid in the sun, today is beautiful…So lets see if my Viking bought me anything I can sit in the sun in…
I walk back to my bedroom to my closet and start to rummage through the drawers. Ha, just what I was looking for…a bikini….A very small bikini but one that will do what I need it to do…
I move quietly to the bathroom and change into my bikini…my bikini? My Viking? My house? Wow, I am becoming possessive like a vampire after all.
I walk downstairs and make my way outside to the patio. I pull out a lounge chair and recline while basking in the sun.
Just what I need…relaxation.
As I lie there in the sun I doze off and before I know it the sun has set. I am woken up by two strong arms picking me up.
"Hey baby, sorry I fell asleep out here. I meant to get back into bed before you woke…"
"Sookie, did you just call me baby? I don't think I qualify as a baby…I think by the time you are over 100 years old…that title can no longer apply to you…"
"Ah, you can always be someone's baby…and you are mine. So I get to call you that…no one else can, but I can. So, get used to it you big Viking baby!"
"So do I get to call you something as well? How about Angel? Or Princess? Or my queen? Or I could say sweetheart? What do you think…Lover?"
At that we both laugh and decide that he is my baby and I am his lover.
"Though I do enjoy you being here when I awake, weren't you supposed to go to work today…lover?"
"Sam called and said he didn't need me. So I decided to stay here tonight. That is ok, right? I mean if you have something that you need to do and I can't be here, I could always go home for the evening…"
"No lover, you are just fine here. I am ecstatic that you are staying another night. If it was up to me, you wouldn't work at all. I would have you in my arms every time I woke up from my daytime sleep…"
"Well, Mr. Northman, does that line work on all the ladies?" I giggle as his mouth captures mine in one of his 1000 year old award winning kisses that make my legs melt.
"So tell me lover what did you learn today?"
"I can show you better than I can tell you…lets see, I want you to go into the kitchen, and put a glass of water on the counter and come straight back here, without the water…please baby?"
Eric ran with his vampire speed and was back before I could even blink.
EPOV
My lover asked for a glass of water but she doesn't want it to be brought to her? I do not understand, but ok. I will do this for her. I get to the kitchen, grab a glass and add water. Then I sit it on the counter by the microwave. I race back to my love.
"Ok, Lover your glass of water is in the kitchen…I don't see how this will help you, unless you can drink it from there?"
"Ha Ha Eric, be patient….you know for being over 1000 years old you do not have much patience. Here it goes, be prepared to be shocked…baby… Come to me glass of water…"
Suddenly the glass of water appears in my lovers hands out of thin air. How did this happen??? Ah, some trick she learned I bet from Octavia…I will ask.
"Is this one of the things you learned about your talents my love? Is this one of the things she helped you with…?"
"Yes, her and Melissa…you were right Amelia wasn't really any help. She just sat there and asked questions with me, but it was still great to see her. Octavia and Melissa read my blood on this pad…"
"Melissa?" I needed to know who this person was… she must not have realized I have not heard this name before.
"Yeah, oh yeah you wouldn't know her…I just met her today but apparently she is another old witch like Octavia who is friends with Octavia. So, she happened to work at the café we chose and became our waitress. Then once Octavia realized who she was, she asked her to help…did you know Octavia is old…I mean like really old?"
"Yes it is common knowledge that natural witches can live a long life. I am glad she shared this knowledge with you. Did she tell you that she changes her appearance every so many years? That way people won't see her as living forever?"
"Yes, so anyways…back to the blood on the pad. They also told me that I can poof like my fae side of the family…oh and I have the talent of masking my scent. Did you know that my scent that you are used to smelling isn't really my scent? I don't know what my true scent is but they recommended I spoke to Niall about how to do those. Mainly because as a witch they have never done these things before so they don't know how to help me learn to do them."
"Being able to aspirate, or poof, out of harms way would be useful for you…since you like to attract danger to yourself, wouldn't you agree…?"
"Ha ha Eric! Very funny…and they told me that I am so powerful that the paper couldn't even measure it because it wasn't big enough…but apparently it's the biggest they make. Oh, and they said something about needing to tell me about my destiny, but that would happen tomorrow…"
Destiny? Destiny? What destiny could she have? I will have to think about the legends I know and see if any of them fit the bill for my lover here. She did learn a lot but it seems that they only went over the fae and witch side today. Which are the biggest two sides for my Sookie.
"So lover, what would you like to do tonight? You seem to have had a very long day so the night is yours and we will do whatever you wish."
"I want to go to Fangtasia and see Pam. I want to dance and laugh and have a fun night out…would that be ok with you?"
"That is fine but before we go we will go to a restaurant that serves both humans and vampires that I know of. They have exquisite food from what I am told…"
"That sounds great but how about we just pick up something on the way to Fangtasia. I wanna get there and have a lot of fun with Pam tonight…"
SPOV
I told Eric that I want to go to Fangtasia, mainly I want to go to see Pam and have fun but I also know that Eric needs to get some work done at his bar that he would neglect if I didn't say I wanted to go.
So, I figured this way I am killing two birds with one stone…or something like that.
Within a few minutes we got ready to go and loaded up in the corvette…
Eric decided to drive since my speed of course wouldn't even compare to his…
Within minutes we are pulling into the parking lot of Fangtasia.
"Lover, don't forget that we are here so that you may have fun. I don't want you to sit in the office and wait for me all night. This is one place that you do not have to hide. No one here would be dumb enough to hurt you. So, have fun."
"Don't worry Eric, I plan on making this a night that neither one of us will forget for a very long…long time. I will have fun and eventually I plan on having even more fun when we get home."
"I love how you think…"
"I guess we are both opportunistic, aren't we?"
"I suppose so. Come lover, the vermin await our arrival."
"Hunny, I don't think they are waiting for me to arrive as much as they are waiting for you to strut your stuff in…remember I know what they are thinking."
"Well, if they wait for me, then they wait for you. Because we are one in the same…are we not?"
"Come Viking…lets go."
My Viking rushes over to my side of the car and helps me stand. It is a good thing that he does because it is rather difficult to get out of a low riding car in this dress, without showing the masses my matching thong.
P(Pam) OV
Well, Well Well, look what the cat dragged in…its my master and his beautiful bonded…and boy she looks good enough to eat. I wonder what brings them in tonight. I didn't expect to see them for at least a week.
"Good Evening Master. What do we owe this pleasure to? I didn't expect to see you for a week, and at best I expected to have to use a crow bar and go to your house and drag you from your bed. So, do tell….why are you here so soon? And without bed hair?"
"Pam, no matter what you say, you can not bring me down. We are here, because Sookie wanted to come and see you. Apparently she is fond of my child, so here we are. She wants to have a good time tonight…"
"Master if the tent in your pants is any indication, I would say she will have a marvelous time tonight."
SPOV
Did she just….OMG… I can not believe she just commented on that in front of these people. Oh who am I kidding, Pam will say anything sexual to get a reaction out of me…in for a penny, in for a pound as Gran always said.
"Pam, thank you so much for alerting me to his particular problem in the facility of his pants…Come Viking let me help you out with your little issue before I begin my fun for the evening."
"My…My…My Sookie, you sure have gotten a little broader in the subject of sex…do tell, is it because my master is the god of sex or is it because you decided to be the sex kitten we all saw in you?"
"Pam, I think we both know that I know how to play the game by now…"
I reached out and grabbed Pam by her golden locks and pull her in for a toe curling kiss.
"See, two can play at this game."
I sauntered off and turn around as I reach the door to see my two vampires staring at me with their mouths hanging open…
"Are you coming in?"
With vampire speed they are beside me in a second, each one with an arm through my arm and we walk into the club. Like most nights the club is in full swing by the time we get there, and the human thoughts are all about sex with a vampire…or I guess I should say sex with a certain blonde Viking. Eric lets go of my arm and heads towards his office while Pam and I go to the bar…
"Well, Sookie, I guess it is safe to say that you finally know how sexy you can be."
"Pam, Pam, Pam… You should know by now that I am a quick learner."
"Yes, Sookie… You sure are. So my master said you came here to see me this evening. What can I help you with?"
"Well really I told him I wanted to come here because I knew he had things he needed to get done, and knowing him he would have put them off since I was at his house…so I told him I wanted a night out at Fangtasia."
Pam chuckles to herself, and with a fangy smile asks, "Would you like to dance? I can tell the DJ to put on a song that you would like to dance to? Just tell me the title and we will dance…"
"Hm, lets see…something to get the crowd's attention. How about Paparazzi by Lady Gaga? That song definitely has a great beat to it."
"Lady Gaga it is… grab a gin and tonic from Felicia while I go and tell Tony to put on Paparazzi for you."
Pam walks towards the DJ booth while I turn towards Felicia. Felicia stops short and gives me a timid smile… I guess she still thinks I am responsible for all the bartenders deaths around here… Just give her the famous Crazy Sookie Smile and get your drink…
"Hey Felicia, can I get a gin and tonic for me and a true blood A+ for Pam? Thanks."
I put a 10 dollar bill in the tip jar, since I know Eric and Pam won't let me pay for my drink. I grabbed both of the drinks and begin to walk towards the dance floor. Just as I am about to reach the dance floor I feel a pair of hands grab me by the waist…I turn around to find a vampire I have never met before has his hands around me…
"Uh, if I were you I would remove your hands sir. My boyfriend would not like you touching me, and I am pretty sure he will kill you. So, let go" I attempt to get out from his hold, but he is pulling me towards the exit.
"I know who your bonded is, and if I were you, I wouldn't scream if you don't want him to meet his final death that is."
"You couldn't send him to his final death you sick blood sucking asshole."
