Sookie watched as Godric leaned in to Roland and breathed in deeply off his scent. The bartenders back was to her and only Godric's eyes and hair were visible from his position at Roland's neck. That was really all Sookie needed to see, those eyes, for when her heart skipped a beat they opened and immediately locked with hers. She could see the tops of his cheeks crinkle with a bloody grin. He released Roland, taking his eyes off of Sookie and leaning back.

¨Go and clean yourself up, I made a mess. I apologize.¨ He said to the breathless boy who dizzily replied.

¨Uh-huh.¨

Roland quickly ran off and Godric sat watching him with a bored expression on his face. The next second his eyes snapped back to Sookie, her heart skipped another beat and he smiled again.

¨Do you like me Sookie?¨ He asked out loud, drawing everyone's attention.

¨Maybe.¨ Sookie coolly replied, feeling her cheeks flush from the attention.

¨Doesn't matter anyway... she's Bill's remember?!¨ Pam remarked, her tone heavily laced with sarcasm.

¨Actually, I'm not.¨ Sookie shot back at her, irritated with the mention of his name.

Godric's eyebrows rose and he leaned closer, resting his arms on the table.

¨I decided that Bill is no good for me at the moment. I don't really want to talk about it. Not that it's not any of your business or anything. After all, you were the one who told me about Bill. I'm just so tired of the relationship at the moment...and too drunk.¨

Eric and Pam laughed as the door to the club swung open again and in walked Lafayette, looking like he was ready to run right back out when his eyes met with Pam and Eric.

¨Lafayette?! You came.¨ Sookie shot up a little nervous as realities and truths came to the forefront of her mind.

¨Uh, ya' hooka', you asked me too. Now I'm here. What we doin'?¨

¨Yeah well, you look...flamboyant, as usual.¨ Sookie struggled to find the right word to describe how Lafayette looked.

¨Yeah, and when don't I?¨

He did his gayboy swag to the table and sat as close to Sookie as possible. Godric's gaze narrowed but he clearly saw that Sookie did not peak Lafayette's interests like he imagined she would for other men. Men Godric would love to gut.

¨Well, so what are we drinkin'? Patron?...Ciroc?...cheap beer?¨ Lafayette asked dryly stating the last.

¨We never serve cheap 'anything'...in this establishment.¨ Eric answered Lafayette.

¨Well then hit me with something pretty boy. I say you owe me a stiff muthafuckin' drink.¨

Eric looked to Sookie and smiled before looking back to him after Sookie begins to fidget. Pam rolled her eyes at her obviousness and Godric watched Sookie silently feeling what she was feeling.

¨Yes, I do don't I? Pam, give Lafayette...¨ He paused, drawing out his smile more. ¨...a stiff one.¨

¨Coming up.¨

She quickly disappeared and then reappeared with an armful of stuff. Sookie took note of a can each of frozen limeade and lemonade concentrate, three-two liter bottles of mello-yellow, a fifth of a, one hundred and ninety proof bottle of Everclear, and a cooler of ice; all from behind the bar. Roland sat back and watched in awe as Pam filled a cup with ice and added the proper mix of each of the ingredients.

¨Swamp Frog.¨ She handed it to Lafayette who took it with a grin.

¨Well, well, look at you? One bad ass bitch. I need to come to you more often.¨ Lafayette related.

¨I don't think so.¨ Pam drawled out.

Lafayette laid back in his seat and tossed the glass back drinking the contents. Sookie looked to Godric who was watching Lafayette intently. It appeared to her that Godric was grimacing. She wondered why but didn't ask. Instead she rose to her feet and walked to Godric's chair. Godric's eyes were on her quickly and she darted hers to Lafayette. He was drawn into Roland, who was drawn in to him. Godric seemed to be smiling about the new coupling. Sookie wondered if he wanted to see the two of them together. His eyes went back to hers as she stood looking down at him.

¨Can we get go somewhere, alone?¨ She asked shyly.

¨Mhm.¨ Godric replied, rising from his seat.

He grabbed her hand and tugged her in the direction of Eric's office in the back of the club. The hallway he took her down was long, narrow, dark, and cold. Sookie rubbed her shoulder with her free hand. Godric noticed this. Once in the back room, he took off his shirt and Sookie quickly spun around.

¨Sookie please, it is for you to where so that you can be warm while this office heats. It will take a little while to do so.¨

Sookie turned and smiled at him, a little timid while reaching for his offering. It seemed weird to her. He had just been wearing it...and only it, now she was putting it onto her.

She put it over her head, her arms through the long sleeves, and then pushed it down over her waist line. It was long, dark grey, very soft and best of all...it smelt like Godric. Sookie smiled and blushed, putting one of the sleeves under her nose.

¨You smell good.¨ She said grinning.

Godric smiled and turned around to switch on the heat in the room. Sookie felt nervous and excited. She wondered why she had wanted to be alone with him to begin with. She was now, and felt at a loss for what to do or say. She wondered if he was going to be upset with her. She really just wanted to talk but she felt like it might get a little out of control.

It had been quiet so she turned looking for Godric, wondering where he had gone. She found him standing behind her and staring tuning in to their bond.

¨Forgive me, you are the first human whose emotions have intrigued me so much.¨ Godric said looking away and feeling uneasy about invading her senses so openly.

¨Its okay, I kinda like it.¨

¨Do you?!" Godric's brows rose.

¨Yeah, well for instance...you already know I like you. So we get to skip that awkward step all together.¨ Sookie blushed deeply at her bluntness.

¨What are we doing here tonight?¨

¨I'm not sure. What would you like to do?¨

He smiled, ¨You don't want to give me all the power so soon.¨ He was right in front of her within a second. ¨If you do I will surely take it and...¨ He stopped and cupped the side of her face, rubbing her smooth skin with his thumb. He leaned in and planted a kiss, softly on top of her flushed pink lips. She sighed softly into him and he pulled away and stepped back.

¨Then are you implying that I can be in control?¨

She asked seductively as she moved closer to him to the point where she was looking up into his eyes as they began to darken and widen in anticipation.

¨Go ahead." He said. Do know that I will not be taking advantage of you while you are in this current state.¨

¨Good.¨ Sookie grinned.

She leaned up and kissed his lips, returning his from a moment ago. She took her hand, covered half way by the long sleeves of Godric's shirt, and placed it on his chest as she pulled away and then quickly dove back in for another kiss. Godric relaxed into her forced kisses like a little boy. He felt her warm fingers on his cold skin and as if by will of his thoughts, they began to move down his chest to the belly, her fingers sent a shiver through his body. His eyes shot open at this and he pushed Sookie away, realizing that he's not suppose to shiver.

¨Do not use your magic on me.¨ He stated.

¨Why not? I harm you.¨ Sookie asked shocked.

Godric thought about the truth, his species and hers had history. They were enemies and in this realm the vampires drained them every chance they got to over power one, as some fairies were quite powerful. In fact the idea of a fairy/vampire attraction is slim to none. Not only because of the differences between their species, but because a vampire would not have very much control over not draining their fairy lover.

Also, the truth Godric could not tell her without revealing her heritage to her. He felt she was not ready for that. In truth he wasn't ready for that. Once she found out she would probably go and look for them and then he would lose her forever.

¨Do you trust me?¨ Sookie asked, bringing Godric back to her in the present.

¨Of course, forget what I said. I am vampire remember, other supernatural creatures we do not get along with because some can seriously harm us. Your magic is unique dearest Sookie. I apologize, I suppose I...am frightened of you... when you use your magic.¨ He quickly added

Sookie's eyes grew wide and she smiled big. She, frightened a two thousand year old vampire. 'Wow', she thought. She sat there, grinning like an idiot as Godric eyed her suspiciously, wondering if she was not alright in the head sometimes.

¨Are you ok?¨

She snapped out of it and jumped up on Eric's desk where she sat with her legs dangling and open. Godric took this opportunity to stand between them and kiss her once more. She sighed into him again, this time wrapping her arms around his neck. She remembered back to Roland when he was running his fingers through Godric's hair and Godric had looked as if he was experiencing heavenly bliss.

She placed a hand on the back of his neck and ran them over his nape, wiggling them like a spider does its legs; slow at first and then fast. Godric's eyes met hers and they were full of lust and something else that Sookie couldn't pinpoint, a darkness. She ran them up the nape and into the short, soft mass of dark hair. Here he closed his eyes and Sookie felt a deep vibration from inside his chest. Her heart skipped a beat and his mouth fell slightly ajar with his fangs peaking over his lip. The vibration that came from inside his chest had turned into an open growl now.

¨No more Sookie.¨ His eyes shot open and he put his hand behind his head to grab her wrist and stop her ministrations.

¨I'm sorry. Did I do something wrong? I saw Roland...¨ Sookie was interrupted.

¨No, you did nothing wrong. I'm just...¨ Godric struggled to find the right thing to say. The truth is that Sookie is driving him mad. ¨I haven't been right since you saved me on that roof top. There is something different about me and I feel that you may get hurt. Sometimes I find myself with no control over my monstrous thoughts. You must forgive me for my waywardness, it has gotten worst since we last saw each other in Dallas.¨ Godric sighed taking a seat in front of Sookie's perch on Eric's desk.

¨Alright then.¨ She replied. ¨Do you want to talk?¨

¨I have nothing to talk about. You may feel free to do so and I will gladly listen however.¨

Sookie smiled and thought about it for a minute but all she could think about was him. Then a thought occurred to her.

¨Eric told me earlier tonight that you had been trying to get me off your mind.¨ Sookie spoke this softly, as to not offend him.

¨Did he?¨ Godric countered her question, his eyes going dark with indifference towards his progeny.

¨Yes. I could help take me off your mind if you'd like.¨

Her seduction did not go unnoticed but Godric was not the type to give into desires and emotions, he conquered them.

¨You have no idea how much I want to do just that. However, I will not. What I am going through it... is complicated.¨

¨Then explain it to me.¨ Sookie replied with agitation. Fact was she liked this boy and he clearly liked her so what was the issue here.

¨I have the body of an older 'boy', not a man as you are well aware. After I drank your blood it awoke something inside of me from my human years before I was turned. Desires, uncontrollable lust... sex. I want this badly, like a boy... with you.¨

He stopped taking in Sookie's reaction but when she didn't give him the one he was expecting he continued with a sigh. It had been so long since he had such an intimate and personal conversation. In truth Sookie had irritated him with her pestering for him to divulge the inner workings of his mind.

¨It is simple Sookie. I do not wish to give in to my 'little boy' desires. I want to take you when I am ready. Do you understand?¨

Sookie's belly grew warm at Godric's words. He wanted to 'take' her, as he put it. She also realizes how embarrassing it must be for him to admit that because of whatever she awakened to cause his body's new reactions to lust, he was unable to control himself. He was looking at her but Sookie could have sworn she caught a thought of his that implied he actually wanted this coupling to end for the evening. She felt devastated and hurt. Godric felt this as well and figured that she had read him. It was an uncanny ability and to be able to read a vampire was impossible; unless the vampire was Godric.

In the beginning of his existence as a vampire there was a fairy-vampire war. They were actually warring over who would inherit the lands of this world and rule alongside the humans. The fairies lost miserably, as their blood was exsquisite and divine to vampires; thus the many that lived on Earth at the time were drained.

During the time of running with his maker and brother Remus, Godric had drained many fairies. He actually felt no remorse for this as he did over the humans. Fairies are different creatures and not of the light as humans are. Like vampires they were born of the darkness that paralleled the light.

It is rare for a fairy to read a vampire but contrary to Sookie's current belief... not impossible. Godric had done well to hide his thoughts from her but he knew that eventually she will read in on him. Sookie wouldn't be the first fairy to realize that Godric was a vampire that was open to them. He decided that he needed to be truthful to Sookie for once.

¨Sookie I want you to know that you can read my mind.¨

Sookie shook her head. She was ready to put the vampire at ease...

¨I can't read vampires anyway.¨

¨You can.¨

¨What are you talking about? I told Eric too that...¨ Sookie looked at him sideways as she was interrupted.

¨There is something different about me. I have known...'telepaths' before and they have been able to read me. One of them taught me how to block my thoughts during moments of high emotional response and a shield to keep them out. The latter lesson I mastered, the first not so well. I think you read a thought a moment ago because I felt you inside of me.¨

¨Yeah, and what thought do you think I read?¨ Sookie asked only half expectantly.

¨The one where I wanted you to leave the room.¨

Sookie's heart stopped for a millisecond and she stared at Godric, mouth agape.

¨Oh.¨ She stated bluntly.

¨Well why have I only heard your thoughts once? And do you still want me to leave?¨

¨Because in Dallas at the church, before I had known enough about you, Eric told me of what you were capable of, so I put up a shield immediately.¨ He felt Sookie's mood dampen. ¨I put up the shield because I am vampire, the idea of someone who can decode my life and all its secrets was unsettling to me at the time. Please understand this.¨ He avoided answering her last question for fear of upsetting her even more. Truth was, he still wanted to end this for the night.

¨Of course I do.¨ Sookie stated, regaining some of her spirits. She wasn't entirely sure why their night had taken a turn for this.

¨Are you okay?¨ Godric asked.

¨Yes, but I'm tired of talking already. I want to go back out there with Lafayette and Eric.¨

She didn't wait for Godric to reply, hopping off of the desk and making her way to the door she mustered up all the dignity and courage she had within her and spun around real fast after opening the door. Godric stood there watching her, he had made like he had been following her. Of course he meant to rejoin the gathering party.

¨It's not like your my loss or anything since I never had you to begin with. But it clearly stands that I am yours; all truths being told. I probably won't give you another chance.¨

With this she grinned madly and spun back around leaving the door open for the vampire. He stood there smiling. He really did like that audacious fairy girl.
