I had shocking news to tell Eric and Pam after my visit with Sookie and her family. I had decided, that I wouldn't be returning to Texas. I am moving to Shreveport.

After all this time with Sookie, I realized that I was not falling in love with her but that I am in love with her.

Eric was really confused. He thinks I'm crazy, only because I am willing to leave my position as sheriff of area nine for Sookie, the mere human.

Do you know what the ironic part is? Maybe few seconds later, we found out that she was not. Niall Brigant "teleported" to us. He is a fairy prince. He had green eyes and pale long hair. Niall revealed that he is Sookie's great grandfather.

I don't know how I missed that. I'd had fairy blood before, but it was so long ago. When I still thought nothing of humans or other supers. All I cared about was blood.

So here I was now, in front of her door again. Lucky for me it was her this time and not her brother who opened the door. She was smiling.

"Sookie."

"Godric," she mocked me.

"I need to talk to you and your gran," I told her.

"What is it? You seem serious."

"Can I come in?"

"Oh! Sorry. Yes!" she closed the door after me.

"Is your brother home?" I asked.

"No, he has practice," she informed me.

We walked in the living room, where Adele was sitting and reading a book.

"Sookie?" Adele asked.

"I need to talk to both of you," I told Adele. I sat in the couch with Sookie.

Find light in the beautiful sea

I choose to be happy

You and I, you and I

We're like diamonds in the sky

"What is it, Godric?"

"First of all, I think I should inform you that…I'm a vampire," I told her.

"Godric!" Sookie screamed.

"This is about Fintann, isn't it?" Adele asked me.

"Yes," I told her.

"What is it?" she asked.

"Niall came to informs us, that Sookie is in danger," I told her.

"Who is Fintann?" Sookie suddenly asked.

"Sookie…Dear. Fintann is your grandfather."

"What? How about granddaddy Earl?" Sookie asked shocked.

So Adele Stackhouse told her granddaughter the story of how she met Fintann Brigant. How she fell in love with him and Fintann with her. How he offered to father children for her since her husband, Earl Stackhouse was unable to have children. This was how Sookie got to know that she was 1/8 fairy and 7/8 human. She was what they called hybrid.

"So what you are saying is…I am human-fairy hybrid?" she asked unsurely.

"Yes," I told her at the same time as Adele.

I saw that she was shocked, so I went closer to her and hugged her and she hugged back.

You're a shooting star I see
A vision of ecstasy
When you hold me, I'm alive
We're like diamonds in the sky

I knew that I shouldn't keep hugging and holding her as I needed to focus, but I was just so close to her and could smell, hear and feel her…

I brought out of my thoughts were going when Adele asked: "So what's the danger?"

"Niall told me that vampire William Compton…"

"Compton?" she asked.

"Yes, Queen Sophie-Anne Leclerq sent him few days ago after Sookie" I told her.

"I was wondering why he moved in the old Compton house," Sookie out loud.

"He's here already?" I asked shocked.

"Yes," Adele informed me.

"That's sooner than I thought," I said.

"What can we do?" Sookie asked.

"Mrs. Stackhouse, Could I possibly take Sookie home with me?"

"What?" Adele asked shocked.

"It would be safer for her; if I could be with her 24/7 don't you think? And I cannot stay here."

"Why is that?" she asked.

"Sunlight," Sookie informed her.

"I will of course take care of her and make sure that she goes to school on time,"

Adele sighted, but then agreed. She knew it was better for her so Mr. William Compton couldn't touch even a hair on Sookie's head.

"Why does she, the queen even want with me? Why not Jason? He's much prettier to look at!" Sookie suddenly said and I laughed at her comment.

"Because you have the spark as Jason does not," Adele told her.

"How do you know that?" I asked. I knew that she knew what Fintann was, but how did she know if her grandson had the spark?

"Yes…How do you know it, gran?" Sookie asked.

"Desmond," she told me.

"The half demon?" I asked shocked.

"Yes, Fintann sent him to my children and grandchildren to see if they had 'the spark'," Adele told us.

"I see," Sookie said "And why didn't you tell me and/or Jason that we have living relatives? And I don't mean Hadley. Where is she anyway?"

"She ran away from that rehab few months ago. I don't know where she is now," she told her.

"I think she's with Sophie-Anne," I told them.

"Oh dear," Adele said at the same time that Sookie yelled: "What?!"

"How do you think the Queen got to know about the fact that you're fairy? Hadley told her about your abilities," I told her.

"Can I go gran? I really think Godric could keep me safe," she told her gran.

"Of course. I have always thought that you can take care of yourself. You have often taken care of me, and Jason too. You should go, but you must go to school, understood young lady?"

I knew that we'd become one right away
Oh, right away
At first sight I left the energy of sun rays
I saw the life inside your eyes

"Yes, gran" she said and then hugged her grandmother.

"Thank you for trusting me," I heard her whispering in her gran's ear.

Adele nodded at her granddaughter and then looked at me.

"Keep her safe," she told me.

So shine bright, tonight you and I
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky

"Bye gran," she said hugging Adele again.

Sookie took hold of my hand, but then turned to look at Adele again.

"But please, please don't tell Jason where I went. He would cause chaos until he found me and tried to kick Godric's ass," she said.

"Don't worry, Sookie. Just be safe."

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shining bright like a diamond
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky

"Let's go home," I said to my angel smiling to her.

"Home," she said smiling "I like the sound of that."

"I like it too. I will send my day man to buy you some food and I should warn you that I don't really have anything at my house except a bed," I told her.

"And why is that?" she asked me shyly.

"Because I just bought it few days ago, when I decided to stay here and not return to Texas."

"You will stay here with Eric and me?" She asked smiling widely.

"I will."

"I need to tell you something," she told me.

"Tell me."

"Don't freak out."

Now I was little afraid. What if this was something to do with Compton or Rene? What if Rene didn't leave her alone?

"What is it?"

"Yesterday…" I don't like start of that sentence "…when I said I can't stop thinking about you, I wanted to tell you…but I was too afraid so I will say it now."

"Sookie?" I asked.

"I love you, Godfrey…Godric however you want me to call you…The point is first time in my life I'm in love…with you," she told me honestly.

"Two thousand years and I can still be surprised. In this, I see God. I'm in love with you too. I love you so much it sometimes hurt."

Palms rise to the universe
As we moonshine and molly
Feel the warmth, we'll never die
We're like diamonds in the sky
