Hey everyone :) sorry for the late update. This chapter's been giving me a headache, and wasn't sure which way I wanted it to flow. I decided I'm just going to roll with this one, as didn't want to leave ya'll hanging any longer!
I watch my beautiful daughter's face morph into one of complete and utter shock! I know she tries hard to keep out of other people's heads, though I am pretty sure she made a special rule breaker for this situation. But she really must get used to this. I unfortunately saw what I did the other day, between her and Northman. So this was nothing really, she shouldn't feel this shocked surely?
I kept a close eye on Adele who was looking between both my boys with wide, curious eyes.
"Don't get any ideas Adele Stackhouse." I warn her.
"Eewww." Sookie said, she actually went pale! Dermot and Tristaian cringed in union, almost at the same time as there sister's "eewww" it was rather amusing to be-honest with you.
"Really?" Tristian spoke for the first time.
"Unfortunately, didn't you see?" I tell him.
"We wouldn't do that to Fintan anyway, and after what she's put our little sister through, not a chance in hell! I don't swing with the old." Tristian respond. "And no, I was too interested in seeing what's inside my little sister's mind, to pay much attention to an old hag." He added in.
"Well, I wouldn't if I where you." Sookie said, looking at me, with amusement. I cringed, and she giggled due to my response.
"Why?" Dermot said.
"Well... mister boss man over their learned the hard way." Sookie responded.
"Don't encourage her!" I warned the boys.
"Well it's gotta be good, to get a reaction out of you old man." Tristian said.
"You really don't want to see it..." I say, really not wanting the imagery in my head again.
"What the heck is going on here?" A new voice interrupted us. SHIT! The Stackhouse boy.
"Go back home Jason." Adele said.
"No! Who the fuck are these assholes? And why is that bitch here? Where's the asshole who broke my hand? I wanna punch his fucking nose until it's flattened to his skull." I look at my daughter for an explanation. She just shook her head.
"Don't talk about my sister like that, muggle." Tristian said.
I share a look with Adele, who looked like she may faint.
"Muggle? This ain't some Harry Potter shit, dork." Oh dear.
"What the fuck is a dork?" Tristian retorted.
"Oh shut-up Jason. Adele... It's up to you what you tell him." I turn to look at my father. "Can I go home now? I don't feel like working tonight, after all." I ask him.
"Hang on, just one darn minuet. Since when do you call her that? Pretty fuckin' disrespectful there Sook, after everythin' she's done for us. Where's that asshole who broke my hand? I still wanna flatten his nose into his skull." Jason glares at me, folding his good arm over his casted hand/arm.
"Sit down Jason Earl Stackhouse!" The look on his face was priceless.
"Well fuck." He said, sitting down without an argument, and hearing the tone in her voice, meant that she wasn't going to put up with his shit.
"Who the fuck are they?" He asked, looking at... I guess my brothers, and my father.
"She's my daughter." My father said, when Adele looked lost for words, on where to start. "And these two are her blood brothers. That is all you need to know. What your grandmother tell's you is up to her, but I wouldn't believe everything she tells you, Sookie will know if she's told you lies, for now at least, she'll continue working at Merlotte's. The man who broke your hand will be there also, I imagine, he'll be pretty angry when he discovers Sookie's not at the house." He looked to. me, and my eyes widened.
"Shit!" I said, suddenly realising my error.
"What's going on?" I think Dermot asked.
"Yes, what the fuck is going on?" A new voice, spoke from the still open-kitchen door from when Jason came in earlier. I hadn't realised how much time had passed? Everyone turned to face his giant frame in the doorway, in complete shock, mostly minus my father.
"Eric! I say, jumping up from my seat, and rushing over to him, though he completely ignored me, he still wrapped his arm around my waist. Whilst glaring at my father, and brothers, well everyone in the room I'm guessing.
"You asshole! You broke my fucking hand." Jason said standing up.
"Sit down Jason!" Adele finally spoke, suddenly finding her voice again.
"No fuckin' way. That mother fucker broke my hand."
"It's your own fault." Eric said with no emotion.
"ENOUGH!" My fathers booming voice said.
"Well if it isn't the famous asshole." Dermot said.
"Well isn't this a nice family reunion." Eric said coldly.
"What's he doing here?" My other brother Tristian said.
"Your in big trouble Brigant." Eric's cold tone, laced with an undertone of fury.
"I didn't do anything V-Northman."
"My car's are still in the garage, there wasn't one missing this time, and no note."
"He didn't do anything." I said quietly, still confused as to how I got here.
"Sookie..." Eric said in warning.
"What she said, Northman."
"You've done it before." Eric point's out. My father rolls his eyes.
"Not here Northman."
"Why's our sister with him?" Tristian said.
"She's my sister, not yours, who the fuck are ya'll?" Jason pipes up.
"Shut-up Jason!" Adele tell's him again.
"As my father already pointed out muggle. She's our sister, not yours."
"Bullshit! Why the fuck are ya'll in our grandmother's house. I just wanna flatten that assholes nose, for breaking my hand, and ignore the rest of this bullshit."
I suddenly felt a wave of something wash over the room and looked to see my father had his eyes closed and his hands held palm up facing us. Suddenly Jason fell to the floor and so did Adele. I gasped in shock, and felt both of Eric's arms around me.
"Now we can speak freely. Sookie, you need to invite him in." My father broke the silence that fell upon the room, after his clever little magic trick.
"Eric, please come in." I say, feeling confused all over again.
He did so, slamming the kitchen door, and kicking Jason out the way for good measure. He rolled underneath the large kitchen table.
"Do explain why my woman, was not in our home."
His words melted my heart!
"His woman?" Tristian, and Dermot said at the same time.
