"I will see you later on, and I swear to God Sookie, you need to start talking to me and stop shutting me out – tell me what's wrong, whatever it is and then we can fix it" Bill said, before giving Sookie another kiss on the lips.
I tried my best to keep the growl that was fighting to come out of my chest – Sookie was fucking mine!
"Yeah. Okay" she replied, and therefore – faced with very few other options, Bill stomped out of the room, complete with the slamming of the door.
"So you would choose me every time, lover?" I grinned, simply unable to stop myself after the dipshit himself had left.
"Don't start, Eric. He was being a dick but right now in this instant, so are you" she snapped, clearly not in the mood to deal with me right now.
Oh. Okay then.
"Can I at least have a kiss before I have to go then?" I said, as I realised that I actually was going to have to head back to the bar before long.
Today was one of the first days that I was beginning to regret my decision to own my own bar.
Grr!
"Yeah" she replied, and this time it was her turn to walk right up to me an place a deep kiss on my lips – and it was one that could have very easily lead into more.
Once again, I was beginning to regret my decision to own the bar.
"I really do have to go, Sookie. I wish that I didn't, but I do" I said, even though I would have given anything at all to stay here with Sookie.
"I know. Can you just at least hold me for a little while first?" she asked, inclining those baby blue eyes of hers right up into my own eyes, and I was one for.
"Yeah. Of course I can" I answered, wrapping my arms around her back, and pulling her close to me as she simply just buried her head in my chest, but the two of us did keep eye contact.
"I am falling for you all over again, Eric. Very fucking quickly. How in the hell can you still do this to me, after all of this time?" she questioned, in a soft sweet voice.
"It is because you are still in love with me, Sookie. Just as much as I am still in love with you" I answered, rather simply.
"I guess that I am" she replied, and then placed a gentle kiss to my fully clothed chest, but before – just as fucking well seemed to be typical – we got bloody well interrupted.
Again.
"I am sorry …. Should I wait outside?" this young girl, who only seemed like she was about eighteen or so years of age, came in.
"No, it is okay, Lucy. Come on in" Sookie answered, as she reluctantly pulled herself away from me.
I guessed that that was my cue to leave.
"I'll see you soon, Sookie" I said, my sentence a kind of a half question.
"Yeah. It may be a while though" she answered, before pulling me in for another kiss – which I of course deepened, before breaking the kiss. Only whenever Sookie was completely breathless though.
"I love you, Sookie. Do not ever forget that" I said, just before leaving for the bar, and just about an hour or so later, I got a text from a strange number.
"I won't ever forget how much that you love me"
Huh. I guessed that this must be from Sookie.
E: Is that you, lover?
S: Yeah. I'm your lover.
E: Yep, you are.
S: I love that.
E: So do I.
S:
E: LOL
After that, for the next four months, Sookie and I would just randomly text each other – or on the rare occasion, we would actually call the other, meet up, have wonderful, amazing – incredible even, sex before either one of us was forced to go our separate way.
Or else we would spend our time sending each other naughty pictures via email. And I had them all saved in a separate file.
The only difference now was that we had both said "I love you", and yet there had been absolutely no mention whatsoever of leaving either one of our partners.
Yet.
However, I wanted that more than anything – to leave Felicia, making it just the two of us, building our life together, I thought to myself just as my phone began to ring. I answered it without really looking at the caller ID.
"Eric, I want to go away somewhere just you and me, where we can just be together without having any chance to get caught by someone that we know" Sookie said, by way of saying hello.
"Hello to you too, my lover" I said, by way of greeting. "And I would love to go on a trip away with you too"
"Have you anywhere in mind?" she asked.
"Umm….what about my parents place near Nashville. We could go there" I suggested, knowing that mum and dad hardly ever used the place and they usually rented it out to tourists, or whoever else wanted the place for a little while.
It was also one of my favourite places on earth – I had so many memories from there, of growing up, of mum and dad, of Pam, of my extended family, of Christmas since that was where we would spend the time – and of course, my memories of Sookie.
Like of how we had had sex all over the house.
Like of how she had cuddled close to me in bed there.
Like of how cute she looked in her patterned onesie, opening up her presents from under the tree on Christmas morning.
And most importantly, like of how Felicia had never been there.
It was like a safe haven for the two of us.
So … what do we think? Review to let me know the thoughts …
