Chapter 11------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EPOV

I was slowly coming around. All I could smell was Sookie's scent. I heard a heart beat in the room though. Was Sookie here? No, she is at work right now. I smelled again and then came the smell of ash and smoke. Darren was in the room. I opened my eyes and snapped my gaze to the dragon sitting in the room.

"What are you doing here?"

"Watching over you" He replied

"Why would you do that?"

"Sookie asked me too why else would I"

I suddenly remembered I wasn't in the hidey hole. I was sitting up in her bed. I smiled at the fact I got to wake in her bed. I loved the feeling of this. With a few adjustments these could be a wonderful change. I would still prefer to get her to my house. I checked the bond to see how she was feeling. She was her normal self at this time. I sat back and relaxed a bit since the sun had not set yet. It would be about 45 minutes till I could leave the room. I was thinking of her and planning out the evening with her. I was sending small feeling of lust and happiness to her. I had Darren get me a TruBlood since I couldn't leave just yet. I got dressed and sat on the edge of the bed. What the…….. What is this feeling? Its not fear. It's and uncomfortable feeling. I wonder what is going on. If someone at the bar grabbed her I'm going to take there fingers.

"Your blood sir"

"Thank you Darren" I slightly snapped at him

"Is something wrong Eric" his eyes watching me.

"Sookie is unhappy with something. I can't place the exact feeling. I have never felt this from her before." As soon as I said this I got a surge of want. I eyes went wide. I was frantically searching for ways to put two and two together.

"Damn it will the sun never set"

"Few more minutes" Darren peaked out the window

"I can't take this. What does she think she is doing?"

The stood with my hand on the window seal. I was ready. Any second now and the sun will be down.

"It's time Darren lets go"

I was out the window in the air in no time. Darren was on my heels. We were on our way to Merlottees.
