Someone was kind enough to point out an error in the last chapter. At one point Sookie realizes it's midnight. I meant to type 12am, not 12pm. This chapter is all about the Eric/Sookie goodness. Enjoy.

I woke up the next day around 6pm. Eric must have just woken up because he was staring down at me, still looking a little sleepy. I felt much better this morning. I sat up in the huge king sized bed and stretched. My bruises appeared to be gone. Eric's blood had done a great job of healing me up. I rubbed my eyes and looked around our room. For the first time, I noticed that it was like a palace. There was a huge king sized bed in one room, there was a small hallway and a formal living room. The bathroom I had remembered was huge. I barely had time to place my feet on the floor before I heard my cell phone ringing. I searched around and realized that Pam had sat it on the dresser when she brought me back from Victor's hell hole basement.
I grabbed my phone and flipped it open.
"Sookie, Bill told me what happened in Italy. Are you okay?" I instantly recognized the voice as Sam's.
"I'm fine, Eric is taking good care of me. How is the bar?"
"Don't worry about that. I know you've already been gone a while, but maybe you should take some more time. It's not fair you spent a week of your honeymoon locked up and being tortured." I shivered at the memory, it had been a horrible ordeal.
"Are you sure? I'll owe you big."
"It's okay, just enjoy your trip."
"Thanks Sam. Take care."
"You too, Sookie."
I flipped the phone shut and turned back to the bed. Eric was laying on his back, his hands were behind his head. Even though he was laying perfectly still his muscles seemed to be rippling. I licked my lips teasingly. Now that I was feeling better I was craving his touch.
"You might be too sore."
I slid my hand up my nightgown and touched myself.
"I feel fine."
"I bet you do." His voice was dripping sex. He pushed the covers down. He was naked, I started to pant a little. Just the sight of him was doing all kinds of things to my libido. It didn't help when he patted his lap, motioning for me to come sit. I practically ran to the bed and straddled him. I threw my arms around his neck and pressed my lips to his. His tongue parted my lips and he pulled me in for the longest, softest kiss I had ever received. I started grinding against his lap. He let out a loud moan into my mouth. Much to my dismay he pulled back from me.
"Are you sure your ready for this?"
He was so concerned, it was sweet. Which made me want him more. I didn't even bother to answer, I slid my hands down his chest and onto my nightgown. I lifted it up over my head and tossed it next to the bed. I looked down at my body, not one single bruise. Thank God for vampire blood. He touched my face with both hands, then slid them down to my sides. He gently lifted me and positioned me above him. I raised up on my knees and slid down his length. I let out a loud moan when I felt him buried inside me. It took a few slides up and down before he was all the way in. I arched my back, pushing my breasts closer to him. He rewarded me by reaching up and taking one in each hand. He softly twisted my nipples in his fingers. The lust was driving me crazy. I started to slide up and down him faster and faster. I pressed my hands against his chest to balance myself. He took his hands off my breasts and reached around to my behind. He held on to it, squeezing as I slid up and down. We were driving each other crazy. I was panting and moaning his name, he was rising his hips to meet my thrusts. I felt him getting close, he was getting even harder if that was possible. I knew he was close. Just when I thought he was going to explode I slid off of him and rolled onto my back. I yanked him on top of me. He didn't even wait before sliding himself into me. After three quick thrusts we were both climaxing. He leaned down and bit my breast, drinking from me like a man that had been starved. I felt little pleasure shocks ripple through me. When he was done he licked the bite marks and rolled over to my side, pulling me close to him.
"That was amazing." He kissed my head.
"I love the feel of you inside me." I looked up at him and kissed his chin. "I love you so much."
"I love you too Sookie." He slid off the bed and then reached down to pick me up. He carried me into the living room area of our suite. There was a large blanket sitting on top of the sofa. He sat me down and covered me with the blanket, he went back into the bedroom and came out with our wedding DVD. He put it in the DVD player and grabbed the remote. He came back over and laid down on the sofa, pulling me in front of him so my back was against his chest. He pulled the blanket up over us and pressed play.
The first thing I seen was Eric pacing nervously at the alter. I almost laughed at how nervous he looked. Then the music started and Pam came down the aisle. She looked beautiful. Then came my music, I watched myself step out with Sam at my side. The camera cut to Eric's face as he gasped in surprise.
"I remember thinking that you were the most beautiful woman I had ever laid eyes on. I don't think I'll ever forget just how you looked on that day." He pulled me closer to him and rested his chin on top of my head.
I watched all of our wedding vows, our blood exchange, then the first dance, and all of our guests enjoying themselves. I loved the clip of Eric gently presses caking into my lips, being careful not to make a mess of me. I wasn't so nice, I had practically shoved it up his nose. Even though he didn't need to eat, he was kind enough to lick the icing off of his lips before finding a napkin to clean his face off with.
I would be forever in debt to Pam for getting us a video of the wedding. It was better than watching Rhett and Scarlet. The DVD ended and I sighed. I rolled over so I was facing Eric.
"You know, we will eventually have to leave this hotel."
"Why?"
I laughed. "Because I want to see Italy."
"How about tomorrow night I take you to dinner and then to the opera?"
I sat up on the sofa. "Really, the opera?" I couldn't hide my smile. I loved music and the idea of going to an opera with Eric made me feel all warm on the inside.
"It will be a real date. After that I have arranged for a late night shopping trip."
I laid back down next to him and pressed my lips against his chest. "You're wonderful."
"You deserve nothing but the best."
I looked up into his eyes, they were the color of the ocean. I sighed, feeling myself getting lost in those blue eyes.
That night we made love on every square inch of that suite.

I'm sorry this one is so short, but I felt like I owed it to everyone to at least have some Eric/Sookie happiness. There is plenty more coming. I promise!
