Godric pov- Part one

I have walked this earth for more than two thousand years, I have seen the world and all its inhabitants at its most savage and bloody, but I have also seen them demonstraite grace and honour. My name is Godric I am a vampire and I was ready to end it all til I found her. I don't know if I can explain it in words. How could I tell you that nothing I have ever experienced compares to being with her, no sensation or place and no blood could certainly compare to hers. It was surely the most purely divine essence in exsistence and it had been all his, well until she became a vampire anyway then she mostly had his blood in her. Oh how he cherished his beloveded Sookie, that was her name how unique and beautiful it was just like her, one of a kind. No he doesn't know how to explain her but he figures a good place to try would be at the beggining.

He'd been so bored with his undead life for such a long time and one night he'd just gone for a walk, that was all, just popped out for stroll. Okay so maybe most strolls don't last for two nights sraight but he had nothing better to do, that was when he found her though. Their he was wondering aimlessly near Shreveport weighing the pros and cons of going to see his child Eric when something in the corner of his vision caught his attention. If he was honest with himself it was the first time he'd really taken in his surroundings, he was standing in a quiet street in what looked to be a small town there were small little shops on each side of the street; bakery, post office, lauderette, clothing stores, shoe shops, a little book shop, bank, dry cleaners, cafe and a little dance studio on the corner of the street, the thing that had caught his attention. It wasn't the shop itself that had caught his attention but the girl he could see dancing in the window, he says girl but he should say angel, it was if her feet weren't even touching the ground. By now his face was almost touching the glass and he could see clearly into the dance studio, their were three other girls in the room as well but they seemed to be keeping there distance from the angel that was still seemingly floating across the floor, ahh... they must be in awe of her, yes that must be the reason they keep their distance.

By the time twenty minutes had past he had been able to view her from every angle, she had long straight legs that were very tanned, beautiful blonde hair that would revial his childs- not that he'd ever tell him- and a trim but firm waist line with curves in the right places and last but not least were the deep blue eyes he'd only been able to get a glimpse at that were now currently burning a hole at his reflection in the window.
Godric being surprised( not the easiest thing to do that) by this jumped back, he realised he had just been caught ogeling her and needed to do something but nothing came to mind and the girl was starting to get a peculiar look on her face, so he done the first thing that had come to mind at the time, he'd waved.

Had he actually just waved at her? It seemed an awefully lot like he had as the girl was now waving back with a smile upon her delicate lips. Well perhaps not such a bad move after all. Still he could think of a thousand different things he would've rather done, but the question was what should he do now? They were currently just starring at each other through the glass, he wondered if the girl was pondering the same thing. Should he go in, introduce himself,no. Maybe just continue to watch her dance and then wait till she came out, but just then an elder women came out of the back room and looked curiously at the girl whose gase was firmly fixed on me, he could see her next move before she did it so he quickly moved out of the line of sight before he could be spotted. With his back planted firmly against the brick wall next to the window he was out of sight, but that also mean't he couldn't see HER, damn it all! But as he was cursing his lack of a ability to think around the girl that could have prevented this, he felt his leg vibrate!

How strange... he hadn't had an experience like this since the 70s when he'd fed off some girl that had been on something they called LSD, whatever that was. He hadn't been right for days and since then had steered clear of that kind of crowd. Hmm their it was again perhaps it was the opiset? He hadn't fed in quite some time, perhaps these were delusions but then again he'd gone longer without food during the wars why would it affect him now? It was then he remembered the big rectengula grey thing Isobel had given him some months earlier and told him to take it wherever he went when he'd asked her why she'd mearly replied it would give her peace of mind when he went walk about again. Perhaps it was some kind of locating device, was that it? To be fair he'd never really looked at it, when he rose and dressed for the evening he put it in his pocket and when he went to rest he put it on his bed side table, well theirs no time like the present he thought as he cautiously pulled then device out of his pocket. It was infact vibrating and the tiny screen was lighting up for some reason it said ( incoming call) well... what did that mean? Someone was trying to call him on this tiny cordless piece of technology, surely not. Were humans really that advanced in their inventions I mean honestly its seems like only a few years ago that they sent their first telegraph hmmm... perhaps he should have paid more attention these past few decades. If someone was calling him it was most likely Isobel as she had given it to him, he should answer it but how, did it work the same as the other telephone? No it couldn't be the other one you just picked it up and the person was their speaking to you, he'd already picked up with no such . Well he didn't have all night to debate over this so he decided to press the button with the red phone on it and see what may happen and thats just what he did.

Now the good thing is, is that it stopped vibrating! The bad news, when he put the tiny speaker to his ear their was nobody there. Oh well. If it rings again he'd try the green phone next time. Now time to go back to watching the angel he decided but when he turned back to the window she wasn't in the room any longer. Where has she gone? The dance teacher was closing up the little dance studio on her own and as he didn't have a scent to go on he really didn't have an option. He walked past the window and around the corner where the door was located, good thing about small towns nobody locked their doors because of some bizzare notion that they were safe! Hmph, more like surrendering themselves and the great thing about street shops no invatation necessary, must be his lucky night. He walked through the door and across the studio floor without so much as a sound, the women was now in the back room. He gently grabbed her shoulder and spun her around quickly and pulled her into glamour. She immediatly relaxed.

"Where did the blonde girl go?"

"Home" she replied

"Her parents picked her up?" he said automatically assuming thats how she got home.

"No, she doesn't have parents, she lives with her grandmother out on hummingbird lane, but her grandmother doesn't drive so she walks home after dance practice because her brother won't pick her up."

When she said this Godric felt infuriated for several reasons, 1 she hadn't been here when he got back, 2 she was walking home alone,at night and last because her own brother wouldn't come and pick up his sister so she wouldn't have to walk home in the dark. He would be having a few words to this boy, but first he need to know which way Hummingbird lane was, she couldn't have had that much of a head start. After he got the directions he erased the women( Marys)memory and left her with a few hundred dollars for her help, he believed in rewarding hard work and then headed off in search of Hummingbird lane and the girl.

He found her of course, he'd eventually picked up the most tantalising scent and soon found her like a siren. She had been humming a tune to herself walking along a deserted road like she'd walked it a hundred times before and maybe she had. Its funny most young girls would hurry if they were walking home in the dark fearful of predators but this girl walked like she had all the time in the world. I had stayed amongest the trees watching her make her way home with giving no possible indication of my presence and yet it was like she new I was there. I know its immpossible and even if it was she showed no outward signs of fear but every now and then she would turn her head just a fraction in my direction like she new. Would that be so bad? The girl in question turned down a lane that eventually led to a driveway and then an old yellow farmhouse somehow, it was quite fitting for her. He almost forcefully stopped her from going inside as he wouldn't be able to see her anymore, but she had probaly been up since this morning and he didn't have the right to keep her from her rest, so he let her go and stood by the porch thinking about all that had happened in the last... 90minutes WOW it had felt like hours. Wait a minute something was pulling him from his thoughts ahh his pocket was vibrating again. Time too try the green button.

"Godric "said the voice that came out of the speaker. He hesitantly put his ear to the phone.

"Isobel is that you?" - " Yes sheriff it is, I am sorry to disturbe your... walk but the king has summoned you tommorow evening. Do I need to send a plane to come and get you?"

"Did the king mention what it was about?" - "No I'm sorry but it did sound important, why is there somewhere else you need to be, oh and you didn't answer whether or not you would need the plane?"

Was their somewhere else he was going to be? The king had summoned him and by law he was required to go but Isobel knowing him had humoured him, he always asked if it was important and put it off if he could but the question is, should he? No he should leave this place and the beautiful angel before he did something that he'd regret, before she got hurt or dragged into his world which would surely happen if he were to stay, yes he would leave and she would be happy.

"Isobel if I leave now I should make it back a few hours after sunset, I shall see you then."

"Yes Godric have a safe rest."

"I will. Oh and before I forget thank you for the portable telephone I shall have to get you to show me how to use it."

"Your very welcome Godric and I think Stan would have more luck with showing how to use that stupid contraption then I would. Goodbye"

He went to sat goodbye but she was already gone. He took one last look at the house and took to the sky,he was somewhere just outside of Dallas where he landed and scoured the woods to find a suitable place to go to ground. He found a lake with a very old oak tree just a few meters away, this place would do nicely. He was just prepairing to dig himself into it when he remembered something, he'd been trying not to think about her since he left but this question came so out of the blue he couldn't stop it; what was her name? He didn't know her name after all that, he hadn't occured to him to ask Mary and now he didn't know and with that he quicky emersed himself in dirt just as the sun rose over the lake.

To be continued...
