Holy shit what do I do! I got a 200 pound vampire wanting to rip my throat out and he's got me pinned. I just have the greatest luck. " I can smell the fear in you." Eric stuck his noise in the air and basked in my fear. I slowly backed into the bar trying to keep my distance. " Don't make me hurt you Eric. I don't know what's gotten into you but I know this for sure isn't you" I was more angry with Eric than afraid of him.

Eric seemed so savage like. Almost barbaric. He had cruelty whirling in his deep baby blues. I knew something wasn't right. Eric moved closer to me every second. I couldn't waste anymore time. I backed myself into the bar area so there was a barrier between us. I kept whispering under my breath over and over just hoping he could magically hear me. "Bill. Help me. Bill!" Eric chuckled at my attempt. He was getting closer and I was getting fearful.

I grabbed a vodka bottle behind and cracked the end of it. It's not much to keep a vampire away but I was armed in someway. Eric found this amusing and decided it would be fun to play games. Typical Eric Northman. He appeared in every direction around me. It would almost be impossible for me to protect myself with some stinkin

glass bottle. Like an idiot I threw the bottle across to Eric hitting him on the chest. It shattered into a million pieces. Which was going to be me next. Eric wiped his shirt and sped up to me so fast he had a free hold of my neck He elevated me off the ground and toward his face. He extracted his pearly white fangs that met me eye level. I held onto his hand around my neck and prayed for a miracle. He finally went for the kill. I screamed violently and held my hands toward his face. All of a sudden a beam of white light struck Eric right in the face which had him flying across the room. I fell to the floor looking at my hands stunned. "What the-"

"Sookie!" Before I could even turn Bill had me in his arms. "What the hell happened?" Bill looked around the bar and noticed how trashed the place was. I was in shock to even have to decency to answer him.

Bill grabbed a hold of my face with his hands " Sookie, Sweetheart what happened?" I could feel the worry in his voice. " I don't even know" I looked at my hands and tears fell down into my palms. Bill held me in his arms trying to calm me down. "Sookie your lip is bleeding?" Bill finally noticed. No wonder all I could taste was blood. I thought I was going crazy..Ok maybe a little. " Let's get you home" Bill scooped me up and headed for the exit.

" Bill?" We were both startled by the voice behind us. " Eric? What the hell happened here?" I stood behind Bill trying to be invisible. I always felt like Bill was my strong tower. " I- I don't even know" Eric slowly stood on his feet rubbing where ever it hurt. " What the fuck happened to my club?" Eric seemed so unaware and confused. "Bill what did you do!" Eric didn't know who else to point the finger at. " Your going to pay for all of this!"

"Now hold on a minute I came running in here because I felt Sookie in fear and I saw her on the ground with her lip bleeding in shock. Now tell me you didn't have anything to do with that Sheriff because I'd love to found out" Bill was eye to eye with Eric even though Eric towered over him like a 11-foot building. " That absurd I had nothing to do with this."

"You've better not have" Bill backed away from Eric and I noticed in his face he really wanted to get out of here.

I couldn't understand. Eric seemed so genuine about not remembering anything. Or maybe it's another one of Eric's games. Eric shot me a look of despair. " Let's be on our way Sookie" I ran to Bill's arms and then something hit me. I sensed that revenge again. Was it coming from Eric? Impossible. I turned my head around to see him but he vanished.

The ride home was quiet and awkward. I really needed to wrap my head around what the hell just happened back there. Eric went in Viking mode and tried to kill me. I get scared and a beam of light shots out of my hands. Then he reclaims he doesn't remember a thing? Was that a load of bullshit or am I really going crazy.

We finally came to a stop in front of Bill's house. " You want to tell me what happened Sookie?" Bill took a risk of asking one more time. I thought to myself what really did happen? If I told him he'd kill Eric but Eric was trying to kill me. Am I defending Eric?Damn! Sookie how the hell do you get yourself into these situations?

"Nothing, just wrong place, wrong time" I plastered a fake smile on my face but I knew he didn't buy it.

"You sure your alright?"

"Never been better" I really need to stop this lying to Bill. It made me feel uncomfortable and like such a bad girlfriend.

"What about your lip?"

" You know what happens when I get fidgety." One more wouldn't hurt him. Hey don't judge I had to do the right thing. I think this is the right thing..

"Right.." Bill didn't seem satisfied with my answers but he believed them. "Alright then. Let's head inside" Bill got out of the car and I noticed something fall out of his jacket pocket. A tiny box?

"I'll be right there!" I shouted reaching over to the tiny black box. Making sure Bill was inside I quickly became curious of this box. I had to open it! Feeling the velvet cover made me anxious. "Oh one peek isn't gonna hurt anybody" I reminded myself. Slowly pushing up the top my heart suddenly gave out. "Holy shit"
