A/N Two chapters in one day! Holy crap! I just need to say, don't get used to this, I just needed to get Eric back in the story. I haven't even started the next chapter, so it might be a while, but my muse has grabbed onto this story for right now, so we'll see. So enjoy and leave me some love:)


I watched the smoke or fog or whatever it was spill out of the CD and swirl around me. There was a part of me that was scared shitless that I had fucked everything up by not thinking more about my wish, but I pushed those thoughts aside and prayed with everything in me that when whatever happened, happened I'd at least be able to see Eric again.

I closed my eyes as I felt the magic surrounding me. If something horrible was going to happen, I really didn't want to see it coming. I could feel the magic surround me completely, then I felt it pull me into something that was difficult to describe, but I still didn't want to look.

I felt like I was floating in a nothingness which was a very odd sensation. I was really freaking out on the inside, but I held myself together if only because there was a chance of me seeing Eric at least one more time.

The floating feeling lasted a few more minutes until I was forced hard back into reality, I just didn't know where I was. I knew that I wasn't home and that I wasn't even in Louisiana anymore. I was quick to scan my surroundings now that I was whole again and I knew exactly where and when I was. "Eric." It was barely more than a whisper, but he looked up at me as he was descending the stairs to the roof access door of Hotel Carmella. There was something different in his eyes as I looked into them, but just the fact that I was looking into his eyes again made my heart soar. I wanted to follow him and throw my arms around him and never let him go, but there was something else that I needed to take care of first and I only had a short amount of time to do it in.

I turned around and looked at Godric standing there getting ready to meet the sun. I had watched him do this once before, I wasn't going to let it happen again. I only had a few minutes so I had to work quickly.

I ran over to Godric as fast as I could and took his hands in mine so that he would look at me. "Godric, I know that you feel the need to meet the sun after being alive for so long, but there are lots of reasons for you to not do this. Eric needs you."

"He has Pam, he doesn't need me. He's been making do just fine on his own."

"Alright, then Nora needs you. She's getting mixed up with some religious Lilith nuts and it's not going to end well for her."

He looked at me completely startled. "How do you know about Nora? Did Eric tell you about her?"

"No, look something is going to happen and it's going to led to her death and Eric's as well."

"How do you know this?

"If you come inside I promise that I will tell you everything."

"I don't know. If you know these things are going to happen, then you can do what you need to fix things."

"No Godric, Eric is going to need you now more than ever." I paused and took a deep breath before I continued. "I know who killed Eric's family. Russell Edgington was the one who had them slaughtered and even to this day continues to control the wolves of Mississippi with his blood."

Before I could register it happening Godric grabbed me and raced inside and to his room. "How do you know all of this?"

"This may be really hard for you to believe, but I've come here from the future." He looked at me like I was completely whack-a-doo, but I didn't let that stop me from going on. "My great-great grandfather is Niall Brigant." I could see in his eyes that Godric recognized the name, but he didn't say anything, so I continued. "I just met him recently and he was there with me when Eric died." I had to wipe away a few stray tears before I could continue again.

"Seeing Eric die hurt me more than words can say. I realized in those moments that I loved him more than I ever thought I could. So Niall gave me something called a cluviel do and told me that I could make a wish and fix things, but I opened my mouth without thinking about my wish and here I am, but I want you to know that I want to be here. Godric, I watched you meet the sun on that roof once before and I'm glad that I don't have to watch it again."

"You are amazing."

"Well hopefully I will be if I can pull of a few miracles, all these changes that I wanted to hopefully make." I looked at the clock and saw that the sun was already coming up. "Godric, why don't you rest for the day and I'll go into more details tonight."

"Where are you going?"

"I have a vampire that I need to see."

I left Godric's room and was walking down the hall to Eric's room like I'd done in my dream before, but this time it wasn't a dream. I stopped at Eric's door and it wasn't open, so I gently knocked. It opened in less than a second and Eric was standing there. I could see the tears that rimmed his eyes, but he was holding them back. "Sookie, please come in."

I walked past him and it took every ounce of restraint that I had not to jump on him. I wanted to touch him and be sure that he was really real, but that would have to wait. We needed to talk before he died for the day. "Eric…"

He spoke before I could continue. "Did he suffer?"

"What?"

"Did Godric suffer? I really need to know."

I stepped up to him and took his hands in mine. "Eric, Godric is alive. I convinced him not to meet the sun."

He stood there stunned for a moment before a genuine smile spread across his face. He stepped closer to me, swept me into his arms and twirled me around in the air. Seeing him so happy and unencumbered made my heart leap with joy. I hoped that maybe this time around I could see more of him like this.

He stopped when he could tell I was getting dizzy, set me down and looked into my eyes. "Sookie, you are the most incredible woman that I have ever met in my entire existence. I am in your debt for what you have done for me today."

"It was nothing." I couldn't stop myself from reaching up and caressing his face. "Oh Eric, there is so many things that I need to say to you."

He gently pulled away after hearing my words and took a few steps away from me. "I'm sure that you have plenty more to say to me after what I did to you. Perhaps you'll call me a monster again." He stopped and just looked at me for a moment. "Just go back to Bill Sookie; I need to go to Godric.

He tried to walk past me, but I wouldn't let him. "Eric, please don't go. I'm sorry that I called you a monster and I don't want to see Bill. He's the last person I want to see right now."

"Did you two have a fight?"

"No, but I have recently discovered some things about him that have changed the way I feel about him."

"Such as?"

I was ready to go over some of the basic horrible things that Bill had done until I saw blood coming out of Eric's ears. "Sweetie, you're getting the bleeds." I grabbed his hand and pulled him over to the bed. "You need to rest for the day."

"What are you going to do for the day?" He stopped fighting me and went over and lay down on the bed.

I stepped around to the other side of the bed, slid off my shoes and slid in next to him. "I'm going to stay right here with you and when you wake up I'll still be here because there are a lot of things that we need to talk about.

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

"Because I have realized that you are not the monster that Bill made you out to be. Now go to sleep." I watched as he closed his eyes and drifted away and when I was sure that he was fully dead for the day I stroked his hair and whispered words to him that he had never heard from me before. "I love you Eric Northman."
