Trial And Error
"WHERE IS HE" Jessica stood looking at her, was it Bill she was talking about
"Jessica where is who" she knew the question was dumb as soon as she asked it who else would she be looking for.
She stood staring at Sookie obviously annoyed "He was here with you last night and he never showed up to rest for the day where is he?" Jessica's voice cracked as she finished the sentence and Sookie couldn't help but feel sorry for her,
"I don't know where he is, I swear" she looked at the floor when she spoke not wanting to see the pain in Jessica's face but that was my first mistake, Jessica flew at her grabbing her by my hair and throwing her across the room, she was a new vampire which meant she was less than a year old but that didn't stop the pain that shot through Sookie. Jessica jumped on her sinking her fangs into Sookie's neck,
"Where the fuck is he?" the blood poured from her wound and Jessica sank her teeth in again.
She screamed out and tried to fight her off but it was no use even with Eric's blood in her she was no match for a vampire, her eyes started to get heavy and her breathing slowed as she laid there wondering if this was how she would die. When she finally pulled away Sookie laid on the floor looking up at her as she paced the floor in the living room, Jessica mumbled to herself and she could tell the baby vampire was coming undone.
Sookie couldn't help but feel sorry for her again knowing she was losing the only family she had so she stood slowly and tried to talk to her again,
"Jessica how do you know he is missing, couldn't he just be busy he is the King?" Jessica slumped to the floor wrapping her arms around her knees before she answered,
"I can feel him, he's hurting" part of Sookie wanted to jump for joy at the thought of someone causing Bill pain but she knew if she did Jessica would kill her so I kept her cool.
She couldn't believe it Bill was gone and still she was stuck here with this teenage vampire who now had red tears streaming down her face, it took Sookie a minute to realize something was wrong she couldn't read their minds so she knew they weren't human but she hoped they were here looking for a vampire. The house was surrounded she could feel the cold dead buzz of their brains in every direction; she only realized what was going on when Jessica jumped to her feet and hissed toward the window but it was too late.
Sookie felt completely panicked as the windows shattered and the house filled with a shiny fog, she had no clue what it was until but when she heard Jessica scream in agony she figured it had to be silver mist. She dropped to the floor covering her face with her dress trying not to breath in the silver and she could hear the heavy footsteps coming into the house; Sookie started to crawl toward the door when she was yanked to her feet.
A black cloth was placed over her head and her hands were tied behind her back, she didn't fight the man as her threw over his shoulder, she was carried from the house and thrown into a van but it didn't matter she was happy to get out of that house and even happier to know she was free from Bill. He was off somewhere in Pain and hopefully being tortured the same way she was her only worry was that she was leaving one prison for another.
Sookie wasn't sure how long they drove before the van stopped but when she was pulled out of the back she could see light coming through the black cloth that covered her head. Without a word she was taken inside the house where a human removed the black cloth and bandaged the wound on her neck the same human led her to another room deeper inside the house.
This room was much nicer in it was a soft bed and all the necessities she would need including a tray of food that sat on a small wooden table in the center of the room, Sookie realized she hadn't eaten since breakfast that morning before and she was starving so she made her way to the table first. She was half way through her food when she noticed a small envelope with her name on it, she recognized the handwriting wright away it was Eric's.
'Sookie If I know you then you are angry with me thinking I left you with Bill forever but I promise you I had a plan, Bill had given me the answer to your freedom in his command. I waited for Bill to leave just before dawn when I kidnapped him taking him to the Majesty and once I could prove he had taken you against your will and attempted to kill you he was chained into a silver coffin. I expect you will want details and I will give them to you later. So rest today my sweet Sookie I will see you soon.'
Love Eric.
She finished her meal and sat in silence enjoying the sunlight on her skin it was just after eight in the morning now and she knew Eric wouldn't come until sunset; there were so many things she wanted to say to him first thing being that this was all her fault. Sookie felt the guilt rush over her when she thought of Bill chained in a silver coffin she knew what he had done to her was wrong but she couldn't help but feel it was her fault.
She had led Bill on by having him take her to Fangtasia knowing she was only using him to prove a point to Eric, she sat at the table going through the last couple of days remembering how he had asked her to tell him she loved him and she started to cry. She had loved Bill once but that was before he betrayed her for his Queen, she didn't want to think anymore she was angry with herself for feeling sorry for her capture and almost murderer.
Sookie had been used in ways she could never have imagined, she had been broken but now it was over and she needed to get some sleep So she stripped down to the silk slip she wore under my sundress and climbed into bed. The warm sun beamed through the window warming her skin letting her know she was safe but even in her dreams she couldn't escape the fear she felt deep inside.
Her mind flashed scenes from the last several days as she tossed and turned waking several times through the day, it was like reliving the horror over and over again was more than she could bear. By midday she decided against sleep and opted for a warm bath but to ease the tension in her body but no matter how hot the water or how hard she scrubbed she couldn't escape her own mind.
When she stepped out of the shower Sookie wrapped a beautiful silk robe that was hanging on the back of the bathroom door around her, when she made her way into the bedroom she saw that a fresh plate of food was sitting on the table in the middle of the room and it was filled with her favorites. She was more tired than hungry and decided to give sleep another try when she noticed two tiny white pills sitting beside another envelope with her name on it.
"Sookie I know you will have some trouble sleeping with all you have been through so take these and rest."
Love Eric.
She smiled at the note as I climbed into bed it was so funny to her how Eric knew so much about her when they have spent so little time together, now that she thought about it the only real time they had spent together was when he didn't remember who he was. She vowed then to change that she wanted Eric to know how much he meant to her and she wanted to spend as much time together as possible, her eyes started feeling heavy as she laid there holding the note she couldn't tell if it was the pills or the thought of Eric but she slept much better this time.
The horror of the last couple of days were replaced of memories of their time together she wasn't sure how her life would be with him but she was sure of one thing she loved Eric Northman. Sookie felt the bed move under her and her eyes shot open and she screamed, fear shot through her making her jumped to her feet, was it all a dream her rescue the letters from Eric was her chance to tell him she loved him gone forever.
Sookie ran for the door not looking back at the bed she didn't want to see Bills face she wouldn't live like this for another night she would run outside and let the guards kill her now. She barely had her hand on the door knob when his arms wrapped around her he pulled to the ground cradling her like a child "Shhh Sookie it ok it's me".
Sookie twisted herself around him and let go of her fear as she cried into his chest, Eric held her calmly stroking her hair and finally she looked up into his steal blue eyes and told him she loved him. Eric smiled back at her and she started to panic when he didn't reply, she wiggled free from his arms and stood staring down at him
"Eric I know I shouldn't have said that I have been through a lot I just need to go home" she was trying to excuse away what she had just said to him when he flew forward grabbing her and swooshing her onto the bed.
He landed carefully on top of her "Sookie I love you too." All of the air went out of her body and she lay motionless under him as he pulled her closer kissing her gently slowly spreading her lips with his tongue and sucking on her bottom lip until she couldn't take anymore.
Sookie wrapped her hand in his hair pulling him into her making their kiss firmer and more intense she could feel the tension in her body but she didn't care she wanted him. His hands messaging her gently caressing her body with such ease she let out a moan of pure pleasure and he stopped; she stared at him she could feel his rather large penis pressing against my inner thigh she knew he was being patient. "
"Eric I can't" he stared back at her kissing the bandage on her neck
"Sookie I want you so bad but I can wait, tonight we have a lot to talk about."
