Chapter Nine
Normal
Sookie woke up and felt dizzy. She just hoped that her new vampire husband didn't turn her without her knowing about it. Looking around, she noticed that she was in her room. 'He must have put me here when I passed out back at that bar.'
She leaned over and looked at the clock. 'Shit! It's 9:30P.M. and I'm late for work.' she bolted from the bed and noticed that the kitchen light was on. Grabbing the metal bat from under the bed, she slowly made her way down stairs and turned the corner. "Alright who are you and what the hell are you doing in my house?" She took a deep breath and made her way into the kitchen, only to come up short when she felt a tap on her shoulder.
Sookie whipped around and screamed. There standing in his black silk boxers was a smirking Eric. She walked up to him and smacked him upside the head. "You bastard. Your so lucky I didn't whack your head clean off your shoulders." Laughing, he picked her up and put her on the couch. "I'm so glad you didn't. You'd miss me." Sookie just snorted and continued to play with the bat.
Eric walked over and took the bat out of her hands and placed it on the other side of the room. "While you were sleeping, I called everyone and told them that we're married. They weren't too happy when I told them about it." Sookie was speechless. In such a short time, she had come to love him, and with each passing day, he surprises me more and more. She got up and kissed him. "I love you." He bent down and whispered, "What can I say, I'm a sex god." Smirking she playfully slapped his arm.
All of a sudden, she bolted to the bathroom and threw up in the toilet. She looked up and noticed Eric rubbing circles in her back. "Are you alright, Sookie?" She glared at him and sat on the cool floor. "Does it look like I'm alright?" She didn't understand, she was perfectly fine yesterday. "I might as well go to the doctor's tomorrow morning, but right now I'm heading back to bed." With that she got up; climbed up the stairs and crawled into bed. Eric shut the lights off and crawled into bed with his wife.
The next day, Sookie found herself waiting for the test results. Twenty minutes later the doctor walked in and smiled at her. Sookie felt herself get nervous and decided to read the doctor's mind. But all she got was boring medical procedures.
"Alright, miss Stackhouse. I think a congratulations are in order." Sookie looked at the doctor like she grew two heads. "Congratulations for what?" The doctor stopped writing. "Why miss Stackhouse, your pregnant."
Sookie gasped and began pacing the room. "Pregnant? I can't be pregnant. That's impossible. There has to be some mistake." At this point she was losing her freaking mind.
"I'm sorry miss Stackhouse, but the tests came back positive. I can't change that. But you know there are options." With that the doctor left her with her conflicting thoughts.
She didn't get home until a little after 8. She still doesn't know how to tell him. Sookie is scared of the rejection and scared if he was going to leave her. She was also proud that she blocked this, since they share a blood bond. Taking a deep breath, she walked into the living room and stopped in the doorway.
"I'm pregnant."
