Chapter 6
POP Ludwig appeared beside Sookie`s bed.
"Go get some towels and warm water Viking" she ordered Eric "Now" she yelled and Eric was gone.
She put her bag on the bed and started going through it, pulling things out. She took a look at me and placed her hand on my belly. She seemed to go still for a moment and then frowned. She took my hand and began to speak.
"Your wound seems to be stable at the moment and I need to get the baby out Sookie. The baby is under duress if I don't get him out in the next five minutes he will surely die. No time for an epidural. I can give you a shot of Demerol and the Viking should be able to help. You just have to let go" she explained to me. I felt a prick.
I was still breathing funny but the pain had somewhat receded a little. Eric came back in the room carrying towels and a basin full off steaming water. Ludwig turned to Eric.
"You need to be clean and sterile, here are some scrubs get cleaned up while I finish setting up but hurry" Ludwig told Eric as she handed him the scrubs. Eric set down the items he was holding and disappeared again.
The doctor drew a sheet up over my belly and chest . The sheet had a hole in it and the doctor swabbed something cold over my belly. Eric was back and I couldn't help but think he looked sexy in his scrubs. Calling the sexy doctor vampy. I giggled at my funny and hey that Demerol is awesome. Pam came in behind him. As soon as she cleared the doorway her eyes glazed over and her fangs popped down. She tried to get at me but the wind came blowing into the room and tossed her out and the door slammed shut.
"It's ok Momma don't be afraid" came the baby's voice inside my head again but this time it was weaker, he was dying.
"Get him out now" I yelled frantic, I didn't want him to die. I started struggling.
"Ok Viking call out to your blood that flows in Sookie's veins Command it to obey and absorb the pain. Glamour her if you can" the doctor said as I felt pressure and then stabbing pain in my lower abdomen.
"Let go my love. Give me your pain and float away. Soon you will be able to hold our baby. You'll be a wonderful mother Sookie I know you will. We could be a family if you will just stay with me, stay with us. Let go Sookie, I love you" I looked up into Eric's blue eyes and I knew I had found my home. I got lost in those eyes and floated there in heaven.
"It's a boy Viking, then again you knew that already didn't you" the doctor said. Her voice brought me back to the pain and I could hear the baby crying. Ludwig brought him close to my face so I could look at him. He was beautiful and perfect. Eric Samuel Northman my perfect baby.
"He's beautiful Eric" I said as I watched her walk away with my baby. The pain was unbearable again and I looked down to my chest. I must have ripped my chest open when I struggled for now it was bleeding bad.
"He's beautiful Sookie" Eric said as he watched Ludwig.
"I love you Eric and I love baby Eric. Take good care of him my Viking" I said and took in one final, painful breathe as the world dimmed. I looked up at Eric and smiled.

My son was here and he was the most beautiful creature that I had ever seen, well besides his mother that is. I looked over at the doctor as she took a towel and wrapped little Eric in it and then laid him in the bassinette that I had put in the corner. It was a gift for my son. I turned back to Sookie and noticed that her eyes were slightly glazed and then I noticed the lack of heartbeat.
"Sookie? Sookie?" I yelled. The doctor was back at Sookie's side examining her. She reached in her bag and pulled out a big needle and jabbed it into Sookie's heart and waited. Nothing happened. She checked Soookie again and looked up at me with a frown.
"She's gone" Ludwig said.
"No, she can't be. I won't let her be" I said and panicked. I'm a fucking thousand year old vampire, we don't panic.
"She is Viking and your going to have to let her go" Ludwig said firm but gentle.
"NO" I yelled. I leaned over and kissed her lips over and over again. I didn't realize that I was crying until I noticed the bloody tears that had dropped on her beautiful face and I got very angry. She had died still looking like a fairy. My poor sweet angel.

At some point little Eric had started to scream and with each scream the house shook.
