Here is the next update for this story....thank you for the continued reviews and support for this story. I love reading the reviews.
It had been a good three days after the encounter with Bill, Sookie and Eric that Cassidy found herself sitting in her home wondering. Why was Sookie so important to a vampire like Eric? Sighing she got up and looked at her phone to see that Nan had left her a message. "Make sure you are in Dallas by the end of the night. Word is that Stan and the other Dallas vampire's are getting restless." Cassidy finished listening to the message and walked into her bedroom to see a figure go past her widow. Ignoring it she walked more into her closet and pulled out a jacket and walked back out to where he bed was.
Having a sense to look up she swung her brown hair over her shoulder and looked to see Eric standing at her widow. Scoffing she walked over and open it. "What the hell are you doing here?" she asked as he stared at her intently. "You're not going to invite me in?" he asked with a slick smirk on his face. "No, I'm not. What are doing here anyway." She asked as she grabbed her jacket and pulled it on. "I have something to take care of before we head off to Dallas. Thought you might want to join?" he asked as she looked at him. "Why are you being so nice Northman?" she asked with some malice in her voice. "Are you coming or not I don't have time for you being a bitch tonight." He said as she smiled. "There's the Eric Northman I know." She said as she invited him in.
"So what do you have to do before we leave for Dallas?" she asked as they both moved throughout the house. "There's a prisoner that I held in the bar for a few weeks he's been shot." He said as Cassidy turned around. "Why do you care then?" she asked as she grabbed her keys from the table. "He's important to Sookie so that means it's important to me." He said as she stoped and looked at him. "So why is she important to you?" she asked as he smirked. "That's one for you to figure out. I'll drive." He said as he grabbed the key from her grasp and walked her toward the car.
"Whose house is this? I have to get out of the damn town." She said as she got out and followed Eric to the open window. "Good Evening, Lafayette." Eric said startling the man in the chair. "You can't come into my house unless I invite you in and I ain't, nowhere near that crazy, who the fuck is that with you?" Lafayette asked as Cassidy chuckled. "He's got a mouth on him." She said as Eric smirked. "She's an old friend...and you'll have to come out sometime." Eric said as Cassidy stared at Lafayette. "Do I smell something dying?" she asked as Lafayette stared at her. "What the hell is she talkin' about?" he asked as Eric looked from Cassidy to Lafayette. "Your leg is infected. We can smell it. If you don't get it taken care of you'll lose it." Eric said as both he and Cassidy put wicked smiles on the faces.
Cassidy and Eric sat in the living room as Lafayette sucked on Eric's arm. "I can't believe you're helping a human." She said as Eric looked at her. "You should try helping other's out it might be good for you." He said as she turned her attation back to the TV in front of them. "That's enough. Don't get greedy." Eric said as he flung his wrist back sending Lafayette into the wall. "And here I thought you wanted to help the humans." She said as Eric glared at her. Eric looked down at his phone to see that Bill was calling. "You were supposed to call me when you arrived." Eric said as Cassidy listened to the conversation. "We were ambushed at the airport." Bill said as Cassidy shook his head. "God he's such a fucking worrier." She said as Eric looked agreeing with her.
Eric finished with his conversation with Bill and turned to her. "We have to go to Dallas now." He said as she got up and looked to see Lafayette happy. "This is disturbing." She said as Eric looked over. "How's the leg?" he asked as Cassidy looked on in disgust. "Shit, I just want to fucking dance. Hit this." Lafayette said as Cassidy grabbed her stuff and walked to the door. "I'm outta here." She said as Eric pulled his jacket on. "Well I must fly." He said as he exited Lafayette's home. Once outside, Cassidy was leaning against the car when Eric met up with her. "So I'll meet up with you in Dallas?" she asked as Eric looked at her and nodded. Smiling she said goodbye and drove off toward the airport.
Once they were in Dallas Cassidy walked into the hotel and noticed that Sookie was sitting in the dining area alone. "Sookie right?" she asked as Sookie looked up from her menu. "Oh hey...when did you get in?" she asked as Cassidy sat down. "Little while ago. Where's Bill?" she asked as Sookie smiled. "He had to meet up with Eric. So how do know both Eric and Bill?" she asked as Cassidy smiled. "Old friends and lovers...Sookie." she said as Sookie stared in shock. "Don't worry I was never with Bill...I'm not into the whole "gentlemanly" thing." She said as Sookie chuckled nervously. "So I haven't really figured you out yet Sookie. Why are you hanging out with vampires? What are you?" she asked as Sookie looked at her not knowing what to answer. "Well I, I..." Sookie didn't have time to answer when Bill showed up. "There a problem here?" he asked as Cassidy looked up. "
"Hello William, how are you?" she asked as he grabbed Sookie by the wrist hauling her to her feet. "You're a little aggressive." She said as Bill looked at her. "Good night Sookie...Bill." she said as Bill and Sookie stalked off toward their room. Rolling her eyes she got up and pulled her room key out. Walking toward her room she noticed Eric at her door. "We need to talk." He said as she nodded and slid her key into the door lock.
