Enjoy!

Also, sorry for the length on this one … hopefully, the next one will be slightly longer than this one is. Hopefully. Possibly. Maybe.

"There's a video of what happened that night, from the CCTV video that was installed in Eric's bedroom" I said, as calmly as I possibly could.

"How is there a video?" Gran asked.

"Gabriel has some slightly weird security issues, and he is always paranoid that his house was going to get broken into" I answered, still as calmly as I could. Although, I was using all of the restraint that I had in me not to scream.

Why the hell wouldn't Gran just believe that I wouldn't be back with Eric if he had actually cheated on me.

"Ah right. Come on over to see me right now. Bring this video that you say exists over with you, and bring Eric too. There is something that I want to talk to him alone about" Gran said, and then hung up without saying goodbye.

Well. Isn't Gran just the absolute height of manners. And etiquette. I thought – rather snidely to myself.

I was still standing starting at my phone a few moments later when Eric came into the room, fully dressed. He gave me a shy smile and then sat down carefully on the sofa. He looked at me with a level gaze.

"Gran wants us to go over to see her as soon as we can. She doesn't feel that we should have the conversation that I need to have with her over the phone, so she wants to talk it over in person" I said to him.

"Ah right" Eric said, nodding in response.

"And she wants us to bring over the video that has Sophie Anne slipping into bed beside you, so that she can see it for herself" I said.

Eric winced at the memory, and I couldn't help but to feel slightly sorry for him there. He obviously wanted to be reminded of that night, just as much as I did.

However, he didn't say anything about it, and then looked at me steadily.

"So, are you up for coming over to Gran's with me" I said, softly.

"Gran wants me to come over with you?" Eric asked, sounding surprised.

I nodded.

"Yeah. She told me that she had a little something that she wanted to share with you as well." I answered, and then wrapped my arms tightly around him as I carefully sat down onto his lap.

"You know that I love you, Eric. And no matter what happens here, I'm never letting you go." I said, cuddling him close.

"I love you too, Sookie. And I'm never letting you go either" he answered.

EPOV

Fuck.

Why the hell was I in such a funk? Because Sookie hadn't told Gran or anybody else – apart from Amelia, that we had managed to sort out our differences and get back together.

But eventually, I began to feel myself start to pull out of the funk that I had oh so easily allowed myself to sink down into, as logic began to slowly impregnate in through my thick skull.

Sookie hadn't intentionally kept the knowledge that we were back together from her family or friends – she just simply hadn't been in contact with either Gran or Jason or any of her other friends since she came back home from California to Bon Temps.

And she did tell Amelia what was happening with us when she called.

"You will always be my number one, lover" I whispered to her, and then leaned down to give my one and only lover a deep kiss on the lips, and then instead of pulling back for oxygen, I started to place kisses down her body – over her cheek, jaw and neck, and then back up to her lips.

"I am sorry for being such an arsehole over the whole telling your Gran issue." I said, softly after I had done three of those circuits around her body.

"Hey … honey, Eric, I understand completely and totally where you were coming from. If it was you, I would have been really, really upset too." She answered, honestly, and then stretched up to my mouth and gave me a kiss with plenty of tongue and teeth.

Needless to say, that it wasn't very long until we both became lost in each other once again.

It was well over another hour … at least, before Sookie and I were able to tear ourselves away from each other, and make it out the door.

"Don't be nervous, baby" Sookie said, holding me close to her before we climbed into the car. I dropped a simple kiss on her forehead, and then pulled away from our embrace. We made the journey over to Gran's in complete silence, the atmosphere thick with apprehension.

A few moments after that, we were walking up the front steps of Gran's house. Before we could get as far as the top step, Gran opened up the front door and stood frozen on the spot for a few heart breaking seconds, as the elderly woman took in the sight of the both of us.

"Sookie" Gran said, breaking the tension between us, and then she held her arms out to her granddaughter. Sookie gladly accepted her Gran's embrace.

"I missed you, Gran" I heard Sookie whisper loudly to her Gran.

"I know, Sookie. I missed you too" Gran answered, and I thought that I could see her eyes begin to whell up.

While Sookie and Gran hugged, and continued their embrace, I just stood exactly where I was, feeling very much like a complete billy no mates.

"Come on in, Sookie … come on in" Gran said, trying to turn Sookie in towards the house. Sookie, however, had other ideas. Instead, she turned around to me, which I gladly accepted.

"Ah yes. Come on in … Eric" Gran said, with what felt like a little bit of fake sincerity.

Ouch.

So … review to let me know your thoughts …
