Chapter 34: We can make it
A/N: Here is the next chapter for you guys, and you know the drill. I love to hear from you guys!
I went directly home and stormed around as I still felt angry about the whole Alcide and Sookie thing. I sighed as I hear a noise and then walked to the stairs that went down to the basement.
I walked to Godric's coffin and opened it up to see him still fast asleep and then moved onto Maggie. She was starting to wake up and I shook my head at her "No, no, no you can't wake up yet" I said as I saw her eyes open and then proceed to widen when she saw me.
"I'm going to die if you keep me here longer" Maggie rasped out and I smiled as I sat down next to her. "Well that's the point is it not?" I asked and laughed when her eyes closed again out of weakness. "Stupid witch" I said as I threw another big dose of sleep at her and then walked upstairs, not knowing what to do with myself.
I picked up my phone and scrolled down until I got to Eric's name and then pressed the dial button but it went straight to voicemail.
"Eric where the fuck are you? You and Bill just upped and disappeared, I swear if this is some stupid thing for Sookie again you are dead!" I said and then hung up as I decided to rather go out of the house and see if Fangtasia was still standing.
The drive there was quick and when I walked inside I saw Ginger cleaning up so I greeted her and then walked to Eric's office and locked the door behind me.
Everything looked fine at Fangtasia with all the orders so I went back to the front and got a bottle of strong brandy that I sipped on as I dozed off in Eric's chair.
Screaming woke me up. I groaned as I rolled over and tried to sleep again but a loud 'thud' and screaming continued so I cursed as I stood up and ripped the office door open, ready to kill whoever kept on screaming.
I walked into the bar as Eric and pam were yelling at each other about him not trusting her anymore.
"Can you fucking keep it down" yelled out as I walked forward and Eric looked shocked that I was there. "What are you doing here?" he screamed at me and I raised my eyebrows at him. "One stop screaming at me, second I don't need your permission to be anywhere and three where the fuck we're you?" I yelled back at him as I glared up at him.
"None of your fucking business, traitors don't deserve to know anything" Eric said back to me and I frowned at him. "What are you…wait how do you know, do you have someone following me?" I roared at him not believing that he would have someone follow me and that said person saw me with Alcide.
"So I am right? It was you!" Eric yelled at me as he stormed forward and wrapped his hands around my throat and slammed me against the wall.
I tried to ask Eric what he meant by 'it was me' but as soon as I tried to say something his hand would tighten. "Eric think clearly, Danalynne would never have done it. She wouldn't do that to you or herself" Pam said to Eric but he glared harder at me and I felt my lungs scream for air but my eyes started drooping and then I felt cool air rush into my lungs before being cut off again.
"Before I end you, I want to know why" Eric said and I frowned at him. "You told me that I should" I yelled out just as Bill and Tara came walking out staring at us.
"Liar!" Eric said as he threw me to the side, but before I could hit the table and chairs Bill's arms wrapped around me and set me gently on the ground. "Get off" I said to him and turned back to Eric.
"You said that I should even out the score, and now that I did you turn on me?" I growl as I stalk forward but the anger left Eric's eyes and shock entered them instead. "What are you talking about. Who did you settle the score with?" He asked me and I scoffed "That's none of your business" I said back and Eric looked at Bill.
"It wasn't Pam or Danalynne" Eric said and stalked past me to his office with Bill following, so I did too.
"Eric I hate to say it but could it not have been Godric?" Bill asked him and Eric glared up at him. "No he would never have done that." Eric said and Bill sighed as he looked back at me. "How sure are you?" Bill asked and Eric looked at me. "Go home and tell Godric I need him here" I frowned and shook my head at him, quickly thinking of a lie.
"Godric isn't here anymore, he left. He said that Isabelle needed him for something" I said and Eric stared hard at me, and I had a feeling that he knew I was lying.
"We need to go to ground" Bill said and Eric nodded at him as he walked out, going to get an extra coffin for Bill. "What was Eric accusing me and pam of?" I asked Bill but he shook his head "Eric needs to tell you" he said and I raised my eyebrow at him. "Tell me now, I have the right to know" I said and watched as he sighed.
"Russell Edgeington was dug up and we have to find him for the authority" Bill said and before I could question him further Eric came in and said to Bill that his coffin was downstairs.
As soon as Eric showed Bill to his coffin he came back upstairs and took my arm as he led me to his own coffin down a secrete passage way.
Eric bent down and removed my shoes and then slipped the blue dress over my head, leaving me just in my underwear until he pulled a plain black tank top over my head and as I smelled it, I realized that it was his.
Eric climbed into the coffin and held his hand out for me to join him. I stepped inside and laid down on my side facing Eric.
"It wasn't because I wanted to" I said as Eric closed the coffin and my eyes adjusted to the dark, seeing Eric lift his hand and trace his fingers down my face. "I told you to do it, forget it" Eric said and I shook my head. "It wasn't because I wanted to, I needed blood or sex and the fridge was empty. It meant nothing more than me getting energy back" I explained to Eric and he nodded as he pulled me closer and kissed me.
"As long as you know you'll always be mine and as soon as I find out who it was…he will regret it" Eric said and I nodded as I moved closer and rubbed my hand over his chest but stopped when I felt a band around his chest.
"Eric are you wearing a bra?" I asked as I laughed at myself. "The authority had a back-up plan if Bill and I tried to escape. It's a stake, ready to go at a push of a button. I need to find Russell and kill him, he can't take you from me" Eric said and I reassured him that Russell would never be able to do that.
I settled against Eric's chest as he became dead to the world and I fell into a dreamless sleep.
My eyes fluttered open only to see darkness. I pushed the coffin open and saw that Eric was no longer next to me. Climbing out I yawned and walked back to the front of the bar where Eric was waiting for me. He didn't say anything as he led me to the car and I thought that that was really weird.
As we came to a stop outside of his house I turned and looked at him. "Are you angry at me?" I asked and Eric sighed as he shook his head. "I am worried about Godric, the bond has been off for too long…he has only been in your presence and I am wondering if he is not thinking of ending his life again" Eric said and I frowned at him.
"Godric won't do that, he just needs time to process things" I said and climbed out of the car so that Eric couldn't ask me more questions.
I showered quickly while Eric was downstairs trying to get a hold of Godric but I knew that he couldn't. So when I was dressed in a tank top and jeans with comfortable boots I walked down stairs to see Eric sniffing around in the kitchen.
"Why does it stink so much in here?" Eric asked and I knew the reason but shook my head and shrugged as I walked to the fridge. I opened it the get something to eat and was shocked when I saw all of the blood bags.
"I have a connection at the hospital, and I made sure that a mishap like that wouldn't happen again." Eric said and I smiled as I looked at his face, he looked curious to who I had slept with but at the same time he didn't want to show that it was bothering him.
"It meant nothing to me, it was a fuck and that's it" I said to him as I leaned up and kissed him. "Did you at least cum?" Eric asked me and I widened my eyes at him. "Only once Eric, and you always make me lose count" I said to him and Eric bent down and kissed me, I tried to be dominant but Eric quickly took control as he lifted me up and sat me down on the kitchens counter as he took control of the kiss and dominated my mouth.
I felt as his fangs came out and nipped at my bottom lip, drawing droplets of blood that he sucked eagerly into his mouth. I felt my eyes flash black as the lust rolled off of Eric and crashed into my body. And right at that moment an idea came to me, and as much as I hated it I knew I could work.
"Sookie…" I said and Eric pulled back with a sigh. "I thought we we're over this already" Eric said as he bent forward and sucked at my neck.
"Yeah we are but I have an idea, I need to ask Sookie something" I said and moaned when Eric nipped at my neck. "We can go later, but for now shut up and enjoy this" Eric said and I rolled my eyes because we didn't have time.
"Eric come on, we need to go now" I moaned out and Eric sighed as he pulled away.
"Fine but as soon as we are done I am tying you to bed and taking you until you pass out" Eric said to me and I nodded at him as I walked to the door with him following me.
"No, no we shouldn't use the car, she'll hear us come. Hold on tight" Eric said as he wrapped his arms around me and in return I wrapped my legs around his waist. I couldn't stop staring at Eric as we flew to Sookie's house and somehow he couldn't stop staring at me as well.
Even though my demon side was roaring for feeling love for Eric, I couldn't care at this moment but a pit in my stomach told me it wouldn't last long
