She woke the next night and saw Eric holding out an outfit bag with a smile.
"You need to dress for the occasion my love" he said and she smiled and changed into the brand new deep purple tracksuit and saw him wearing a black one and then spotted Pam in the matching dark blue one.
"Are we colour co-ordinating now?" she asked and Pam smiled as they entered the bar.
"What is that smell?" she said and Eric chuckled.
"Good you're here. Truck out front?" Eric asked.
"Yeah" the unknown man answered.
"Werewolf" Pam said and Keely looked at the unknown man.
"Don't mean to be offensive but you do kinda smell" she said and he grinned at her.
"So you do" he said and she smiled slightly and walked over to the brunt vampire.
"Let's go, got a lot to do" Eric said as he dragged Russell along the floor using the silver chains.
"Sookie stay here, Pam and Keely will protect you...or at least Pam will" Bill said and Sookie looked at him.
"I feel better protecting myself, since I now know I'm basically vampire crack" she replied.
"By the way, in rescind my invitation to my house to all vampire's present, so don't even think about following me home" Sookie said and she left.
"Yeah coz that was the first thing on my mind" Keely said and Pam smiled.
"Get up" Eric said.
"I do not take orders from anybody" Russell groaned.
"Suit yourself" Eric replied as he dragged him to the door.
"If you two are finished eye-fucking each other, you can go" Keely said to Bill and the Werewolf and Eric laughed as he left and Pam began laughing too.
"One more thing" Eric said and as he stopped by the door and looked at Keely.
"Yeah?" she asked and he smiled.
"There's gift for you in the office" he said and she smiled and he winked and blew her and Pam a kiss then left.
"I'm going to go and get that gift" Keely giggled and Pam smiled.
"Take your time cupcake" she said and Keely smiled and sighed when the phone rang.
"Hello Fangtasia, the bar with bite" she said as she placed the phone on loudspeaker as she began looking for her gift.
"Keely" Godric's voice said and she reached over to hang up.
"Please let me explain before you hung up" he said and she sighed.
"5 minutes" she said as she carried on looking.
"I will admit I have been sleeping with a human girl called July" he said and she sighed.
"But it was not by choice" he said and she scoffed.
"How to you not fuck someone by choice Godric? You either do or you don't" she said.
"She is very powerful in Dallas, her father is the Major. If I do not do as she asks, then she will be able to bring down the AVL in a matter of minutes" he said and she sighed.
"So you have to betray me to fuck her just to keep Nan and the other clowns happy?" she snarled.
"I don't want to Keely but the AVL is far more important than you think" he said and she scoffed.
"Are they hell! Their magister tortured me for two nights, with hardly any breaks before Eric saved me. They had us locked in our own bar because of Queen Sophie-Anne. They are nothing but posers and idiots. Do what you want Godric I..." she began and then stopped when she found the gift. It was a small black box in Eric's bottom drawer. She took it out and opened it and gasped. Inside lay the most beautiful ring she had ever seen. It was a platinum band with small diamonds around a medium sized Sapphire. It was beautiful but simple, exactly how she liked her jewellery.
"What's wrong?" Godric asked and she looked at the phone and then the ring in her hand.
"I'm engaged" she said.
"What?" he asked and she smiled.
"You left me, you have been gone now for over 6 months. You are fucking some human bimbo, so it's over. I'm engaged to Eric" she said.
"Eric!" he shouted and she smiled.
"Bye Godric" she said and hung up the phone. She slipped on the ring and went to get changed so she and Pam could open the bar. She began working and then Pam came over and gasped when she spotted the ring.
"It's beautiful" she said and Keely smiled.
"I know" she said and then smiled and began childishly dancing in her spot.
"Pam?" Keely called a while later, after closing up the bar.
"Pam?" she called.
"Where the hell is she?" she muttered.
"Hello there beautiful" she heard a voice say and spun around.
"Who the hell are you?" she asked and he smirked and she screamed as he grabbed her and threw her over his shoulder. She screamed and tried to fight him off as she was thrown into a pool of wet cement. She screamed and tried to get out and then gasped she felt a hand grab hers and pull her out of the cement. She quickly wiped off what she could and saw Eric and Pam looking at her.
"Ok who the fuck did that and when do I get to eat him for breakfast?" she snarled.
"Bill Compton" Pam said and she growled and then gasped as Eric threw her over his shoulder.
"You are aware I can walk right?" she asked as he and Pam ran with her back to Fangstasia.
"Yes but I get an amazing view of your ass" he replied and she rolled her eyes. She and Pam headed straight for their bathrooms as Eric went to see Bill.
"Did you kill him?" Pam asked as she and Keely saw Eric enter the bar.
"Please tell me you killed him, because I will never get all this cement out of my hair" Keely said and he looked at her and smiled.
"I liked it better short" he said and she looked at him and he smiled when he saw the ring on her finger.
"I give him a much worse punishment" he said and turned to go to his own room.
"Rubin was the one who tried to kill me and Keely" Pam said and he froze and turned and looked at them.
"I took him out, after I got out the cement and then went to find you and Keely" she said and he sighed.
"Great, on top of everything I'm out an assassin" he said and she looked at him.
"I have zero patience with that shit" she replied calmly.
"You need a shower" Keely said and he looked at her and Pam rolled her eyes and walked off.
"If you say so" he said and she squealed when he grabbed her and ran them both into his shower. She gasped as the hot water ran over her cold body. She sighed when she felt him washing her hair for her.
"So you like it short huh?" she asked and he smirked at her.
"Short and curly" he said and she smiled.
"Then tomorrow night you can take me to the hairdresser and then shopping" she said and he chuckled.
"With pleasure" he said and she smiled.
Eric entered his office and froze when he saw the male in his chair.
"Is it true?" he asked and Eric sighed and shut the door.
"About you and Keely Eric, is it true?" he asked and Eric sighed.
"Yes" he said and Godric looked at him.
"Is she a game Eric? Is she just another passing fancy to you? I have known you for a thousand years and no girl has ever sparked your interest like her, not since Pamela. Is she just another game until you get bored? Is she..." Godric ranted and Eric looked at his maker.
"I love her" he said and Godric froze. Eric had never said he loved any woman, apart from Pam and even then he'd added 'as a daughter or annoying sister' at the end of it.
"What?" he asked and Eric nodded.
"I love her Godric. I love how she laughs, I love how she makes those adorable noises of frustration. I love how when she gets really angry, sparks flash in her dark eyes. I love her with my entire being" Eric admitted and Godric looked at him.
"Honestly?" he asked and Eric nodded. Godric looked at his progeny and felt the deep, passionate, very real feeling of love he had that Godric had never sensed before.
"Honestly" he said and Godric nodded.
"Eric, we need..." began the voice of the very female they were talking off. Keely entered the room with her new short hair in bouncy curls, her dark eyes sparkling as she stood in a baby pink jumper and brown, black, white and pink printed skirt and matching pink heels. She looked older than he remembered. She looked strong and confident and powerful.
"Oh shit" she said as she looked at Godric.
"I'll erm..." she said and turned to leave.
"Do you love him?" Godric asked and she stopped.
"Yes" she said and Godric looked at her, using Eric to sense her own feeling of pure love.
"Look at me" he said and she slowly turned and looked at him.
"You look beautiful Keely" he said and she looked away.
"Thank you" she said and he looked at her and saw Eric reach out and take her hand. He looked at their faces as they looked at each other. He smiled slightly when he saw the love in their eyes as they gazed at each other.
"When is the wedding?" he asked and they looked at him.
"Godric we..." Eric began.
"You don't need to explain. I see it when you look at her" he said and Keely smiled softly as she held Eric's hand.
"Well?" he asked and Eric smiled softly.
"In a month. June 8th, what would be her 18th birthday" he said and Godric smiled.
"I wouldn't miss it for the world" he said and Keely looked at him.
"I wanted to ask you to give me away but I can understand if it's too hard" she said and he looked at her.
"Patrick?" he asked and she smiled.
"I wanted you both" she said and he looked at her.
"I would be honoured" he said and she smiled.
"What was wrong my love?" Eric asked and she smiled.
"I was going to say we need another dancer but it doesn't matter" she said and he smiled.
"I'll have one here by tomorrow while you and Pam go shopping" he said and kissed her. She smiled and left the office.
"Godric I..." Eric began.
"You're marrying her Eric, that's all I need to know" he said and then with a brotherly hug, Godric flew out of the office. Eric went to the bar and saw Keely laughing as worked behind the bar with Chow. She looked like a fang-banger in her bright clothes in the dark bar but she looked sexier than anything he had ever seen in his life.
Keely smiled as she worked and then saw Eric in his chair on his phone. She jumped slightly as her phone vibrated against her hip. She pulled it out of the little pocket and smiled and opened the message from Eric.
Sorry to tell you my love but you look like a fang-banger.
She laughed and texted him back with a grin.
Eric looked at his phone and opened her reply.
I am fucking a vampire so I am a fang-banger only I have fangs too. So that makes us both fang-bangers :P
He had to force back a laugh at her comment. He looked over to the bar and saw her looking at him with a smirk. He smirked at her and she winked and blew him a kiss then went back to work.
