I decided to take more time over this than I originaly planned, so don't worry, you will get answers.

Happy halloween !

" Destroy them. All of them. ' Said Stan.

Eric let go of Steve and grabbed me to protect me. I tried struggling, saying I could defend myself but he just shushed me. I watched in horror as everyone was about to die, when a miracle happened.

' Enough ' resounded Godric's sweet voice. He was standing right at the top of the church, where the organ was. ' You came for me I assume ' he said to Stan. ' Underling ? '

' Yes sheriff... ' he answered, through gritted teeth. He obviously would have preferred Godric dead so he could have his little bit of fun. I made a mental note as to do something about him once we got out of this mess.

' These people have not harmed me ' continued Godric. ' You see, we can coexist. Mister Newlin, I do not wish to call for bloodshed when it's uncalled for. Help me set an example. If we leave you in peace, will you do the same ? ' He really was a miracle. My miracle. But Steve didn't share my opinion.

' I will not negotiate with sub-humans. ' he spat. He loosened his tie, showing his neck to Eric. ' Kill me. Do it. Jesus will protect me. ' and he closed his eyes, waiting.

' I'm actually older than your Jesus. ' retorted Godric, perfectly calm, causing Steve's eyes to open wide. ' I wish I could have known him, but I missed it. '

Suddenly Godric was down next to me, and grabbed Steve by the neck and pulled him up to a standing position. ' Good people ' he said, looking around. ' Who of you is willing to die for this man's madness ? '

Silence. People were exchanging glances, but none of them looked confident in Steve anymore.

' That's what I thought. ' he continued. ' Stand down everyone. People, go home, it's over now. '

I watched everyone walk out calmly, except for Stan, Bill, Sookie, Eric, and Godric, who pushed Steve to the ground telling him his faith in man kind was stronger than his. Which I smiled at in appreciation, but Godric didn't see. Eric did though, and he rolled his eyes. Godric took hold of my hand without looking at me. ' Come ' he said, leading us away, but Stan stopped us.

' Sir, after what these humans have done to you - '

' I said come. ' replied Godric, before he could finish. He sounded so tired, so defeated, so... Sad. I tightened my grip on his hand but got nothing in response as he guided me out. I heard Sookie's brother run over to her, and I looked back to see them hugging. They were so lucky to have each other. I smiled at that thought, and caught Eric's gaze, as he followed Godric and I just a few feet behind.

We walked in silence, exiting the church, walking up the small hill into the darkness of the few trees, where Godric stopped and turned to Eric. ' Thank you for looking after her. I see you two got to know each other quite well in my absence. ' he said, ignoring me.

I couldn't stand him not paying attention to me. I went to stand in front of Eric, so as to finally face him. ' I'll ignore the fact I have no idea how you know what went on between Eric and I, I'll ask you about that later. But for now... What's wrong ? ' I asked, really worried. He looked so depressed. When he didn't answer, I stroked his cheek with the back of my right hand, and he took my other hand in his.

' I love you Sigrid. Eric and you are the only two people I truly care for, and I couldn't stand anything happening to you, either of you. ' he said, not taking his eyes off me. Eric came to stand by my side, taking my hand off Godric's face and holding it in his own hand. They looked at each other for what seemed like ages.

' I'll meet you two back at the hotel. I'll see you in a little while. ' He smiled faintly and flew off, ignoring my protests.

' What, you don't want to fly with me ? ' asked Eric.

' No it's not that ' I said, turning to him. I noticed he too seemed worried about Godric, but decided to ask him about it later. ' It's just that... Well I miss him. '

' I know ' he said softly, picking me up bridal style, before taking off like superman. At first I took in the scenery, but I soon got cold and snuggled into Eric, making him smirk. I rolled my eyes in despair, but had to hide a smile. I was starting to find him really sweet, oddly enough.

' Why are you bare footed ? ' He asked, breaking the silence.

' You got me heels Eric. I hate heels... ' I mumbled, half asleep. I was so tired, and I was getting a terrible head ache.

It wasn't long before we arrived, and Eric put me down, took my hand, and lead me inside. A few vampires were gathered round the fire in the living area, but I pulled back, not wanting to follow Eric in there. He looked at me, puzzled.

' I'm going to see Godric. ' I told him, sounding apologetic. He hesitated, but nodded anyway.

' I'd like to speak to you afterwards. About last night. '

I swallowed, nervous. He was probably going to be really angry at me for running off like I had. But I didn't sense any emotion coming from him at all, not even through our bond, so I nodded and ran off. When the elevator didn't come as soon as I pressed the button, I ran up the stairs, and knocked on Godric's door. I opened the door when I heard a faint " come in ", and when I'd closed the door, I saw him, sitting on the couch, his head in his hands.

I sat down next to him, and when he didn't react at all, I put my arm around his shoulders, pulling him to me, giving him a supporting hug. I didn't dare speak. I felt him take in my scent, before pulling back. He took my hands in his and faced me.

' I sends a change in you my dear. ' He said softy, trying to figure it out.

I said nothing, not knowing what to say. He looked at me, up and down. ' Why did you come the that church ? It wasn't in the plans. Not even Eric knew about it. You just ran off while he was asleep. Why ? ' he asked, concerned.

I looked down. ' Do you know what happened between him and me ? ' He nodded, so I continued. ' Well, when I woke up, I had to run away. I felt like he was keeping me from you, like if I'd stayed with him, I'd have never seen you again. I can't do that, you're my family. I love you Godric, and no one will ever come between us. ' I was embarrassed.

He put his hand under my chin and lifted my face up, so as to look into my eyes with the look he always gave me when I was sad.

' You and Eric share a bond. Not one of blood, but one of soul. I can not explain to you, I do not understand such things myself. But it's obvious, neither one of you act normally around each other. ' I didn't answer, so he continued. ' Sigrid my dear, you should hate Eric with all your being after what he did to you. But you don't, you love him. '

I looked at him accusingly, wide-eyed, astonished by what he had just said.

' You do, you love him. ' continued Godric, plainly. ' Just as he loves you. He won't admit to it, not yet anyway. You should be dead. Your blood is intoxicating to vampires. That's why I never drank your blood. I know you wanted to give me the gift of day walking, but I couldn't take the risk of hurting you. But Eric... He tasted you without knowing who or what you were, and still he stopped. He must have known you were important. '

I was lost in my thoughts. He was right, about everything. But I still couldn't believe it. I started to cry, but I didn't know why. I had no reason to be sad, no reason at all. Godric was back, I should have been happy. He gave me a hug, and patted my back.

' There there my loved one, do not cry. Everything will be alright. ' I could tell he was confused.

I suddenly stopped crying, pulled away from him, and whipped my eyes.

' Godric ? ' Why were you so distant earlier ? And why are you so sad ? ' I asked between sniffles.

He took in a deep breath, though he didn't need to. ' I regret what happened with the Fellowship. I thought everything would be fine, but I was wrong. And when I saw you and Eric, when I saw the way you looked at each other, the strangest of feelings took hold of me. ' He drifted off into his thoughts.

I waited for him to continue, curious as to what he meant.

' I was jealous. I did not wish to take Eric's place and claim you as my own, but I was jealous because you had found each other. And after 2000 years I am still as lonely as ever. '

' You're not lonely Godric ! I'm here for you, I always have been. And I always will ! ' I couldn't believe he was saying that !

' No that's not what I mean. You love me, but not the way you love Eric. You have your other half, yet I do not. True love is different than what we have my friend. I'm afraid to say life is getting very monotone. It's hard. '

My mouth fell open. What was he saying ? How could he say that ? I felt light headed, and my head was spinning, my mouth watering. Shit, I needed to get to the bathroom ! I got up and ran, and got there just in time to throw up. Godric was suddenly by my side, holding my hair for me. I looked up at him, and he had the most concerned, the most worried look on his face I'd ever seen. I was about to speak when I threw up again. And that hurt. My stomach was empty, so nothing came out, making my stomach hurt like crazy.

' Get me a glass of water please. ' I groaned, the taste left in my mouth making me want to gag some more. Godric handed me some water barely a second later, and I grabbed it like it was going to save my life from a deadly disease. I took a sip, and instantly felt a lot better. I didn't understand though. In the thousand years I had lived I had only ever thrown up 2 or 3 times, due to food poisoning.

I let Godric lead me back to the couch, as I continued sipping my glass of water. As I sat down, Eric came in, and kneeled in front of me.

' I felt something was wrong through our bond. Are you alright ? '

I choked on the water I was sipping. He was worried !
