First off, I would like to say something to pinkprincess xoxo: Is not possible for me to do a youtube video about the story because I'm not familiar with sony vegas or other program of the kind. But if someone might like to do a video of the story then I would really appreciated. But if it doesn't happen, then it doesn't happen.
I don't True Blood
"So you're going to stay at Sookie's again?" Dawn asked from my bedroom's doorway.
"Yeah. That way you and Jason can have some privacy" I said while zipping my bag close.
"Now that just makes me feel bad" She said entering the room.
"'Don't worry. This way we all get what we want: you and Jason can keep The Thing going on, and I'll get a place to stay without hearing funny noises."
"Just promise me you won't leave Bon Temps without saying goodbye to me. That would be really bitchy of you if you did it."
"I promise" I told her and gave her hug. "Besides, I don't have to go to her house right now, we can still hang out"
.
It was a little after sundown that I arrive at Sookie's, and from what I could see when I stepped out of the car is that Jason's car is also here.
I like to think that it's because he wants to make sure that Bill is nice to Sookie, but I know is because Bill is a vampire.
I went to the door and knock three times. No matter how many times I've been here I always knock. It just doesn't seem right to just walk in.
Sookie answered the door. "Adrian, Hi. I thought you were coming earlier" She said after she let me through the door.
"And leave Dawn all alone? I don't think so" We came to the living room, where Adele, Jason and, oddly enough, Tara were seated. "Well, isn't this quite the reunion?" Then I went to give Adele a hug. "Hi Adele"
"Hello Adrian. Are you also here to meet Mr. Compton?"
"Um… no. I was actually here because, well…" I lifted up my bag, hoping it could explain everything.
Jason looked embarrassed.
He should.
"Oh you're more than welcome to stay here as long as you want. But won't your sister feel lonely?"
I threw Jason a look. "I don't think she'll be so lonely, if you ask me."
Tara didn't look happy at that.
"You don't mind if I get something to drink, do you?" I asked Adele.
"Of course not dear. Please help yourself. I have to cut the sandwiches."
So I leave my bag by the couch and served myself some ice tea.
.
So Jason's here because he doesn't trust the vampire. Close minded, but a valid reason. At least, for Jason.
Adele and Sookie live here, so no questions there.
I know why I'm here.
So that only leaves Tara.
What the hell is she doing here?
I came back to the living room to find that Bill was already here. To not disturb them, I just leaned against the wall.
"Your people, Mr. Compton, they were from this area ... I believe?" Adele asked him.
"Yeah, my father's people were Comptons, and my mother's people were Loudermilks."
I snickered. And everyone turn to me. "Sorry"
Loudermilks. Funny name.
I turn to Bill. "I'm Adrian"
"Nice to meet you Adrian. I'm.." He started to say but I interrupted him.
"Bill Compton. I know. Well… I wouldn't want to interrupt your talk, I was just coming for my bag." And I went to retrieve my bag.
"Is alright" He said.
"Don't you want to stay and talk Adrian?" Adele asked me.
"Sorry, I have a history essay due next week"
"Perhaps Bill can help you. Maybe he was alive at the time" Jason said.
Way to be rude.
"There is a possibility, yes" Bill said.
"Were you around the French revolution?" Because my essay is on the French revolution, and if he had some pointers, good for me.
"I'm afraid I wasn't. I was turned into a vampire during the civil war"
"Oh well. If I ever get an essay about civil war, you wouldn't happen to tell me some unknown facts, would you?"
"It will be my pleasure"
"Thanks Bill" I said, and made my way to the stairs.
When I looked back, I could see that Sookie was smiling. Probably because there were more people being nice to Bill.
.
I was almost finishing with my essay when I noticed that I didn't have any ice tea left. So I went downstairs to serve myself some more.
I was just down the stairs when I see something that made me glued to the floor.
Tara and Jason snuggling. Or, more likely, Tara snuggling up to Jason.
What. The Hell?
"Shit!" Jason said.
"What?" Tara asked him.
"I was supposed to pick up Dawn from work. God damned it! She gonna be all pissed." Jason gets up to leave. I stepped out of the way so that he can't see me. "Good night Gran, good night Adrian!" He called as he was exiting the house.
I turn to face Tara, who was still sitting in the sofa. "Oh. My God"
She turned around startled. "Jesus Adrian, you scared me" She said while getting up.
"You scared me. What were you doing?" I glared at her. I crossed my arms, as if to say that I meant business.
"Look, I know you're Dawn's little lap dog, but come on. Jason and I have been friends for a long time…" I interrupted her.
"And you have been smitten by him for a long time"
"Do you really think that he and Dawn are serious?" She asked disbelieving.
"Do you really think that you and Jason could ever be serious?" I asked her back with that same tone of voice. "Better yet, do you think you could have what he and Dawn have?"
"They're only having sex. That's nothing"
"He could never see you as something more as Sookie's friend" I said severely.
"How do you know? Haven't you ever wondered that maybe he and Dawn shouldn't be together?" She was getting defensive.
"Haven't you wondered that maybe he isn't interested in you?"She was going to say something, but I beat her to it. "I'm also saying this for your benefit," She snorted. "Do you really want to spend the rest of your life waiting for the day that Jason sees you the way you see him?"
"I don't have to listen to this shit!" She said and stormed out of the house.
I was cruel, I know.
But I was also right.
.
The next day was pretty uneventful.
I was still staying at Sookie's.
Tara wasn't speaking to me.
I finished my history essay.
And I talk on the phone with my friend/roommate Hannah. Hannah and I met during orientation week. Turned out she's also from Monroe. But Monroe, Mississippi. We're in the same career: Architecture. She wants to be a landscape designer, and I'm into buildings. We got along great because even though we were in the same career, we had different goals, so there won't be any rivalry later on.
We also pledged together into Omega Kappa. I thought things were going to get rough because OK doesn't accept many rushes. Is the most exclusive sorority in school. But Hannah was confident that both of us were going to get in. It helped a little that Hannah was Legacy.
The day was uneventful. But the night was a little bit interesting.
I was reading in the sofa when Sookie comes in looking a little shaken.
"Sookie, are you ok?"
She turns, surprised to see me there. "Adrian, hi. Umm, yes, I'm fine" Then she went up the stairs.
She is so not ok.
I followed her to her room. "Sookie, what happened?" I asked her when I entered her room.
She sat down her bed. "I went to see Bill to give him the number of a couple of electricians. But Bill wasn't there. His friends were."
"Friends? As in vampire friends?"
"Yes"
"Did they… do anything to you?"
"No, Bill stopped them. And told them that I was his!" She clearly didn't look happy about that. "He said it was for my protection, but still!"
"Look at it this way, you guys had your first fight" I smiled.
She laughed a little.
After that I went to Jason's room and was about to go to sleep when Dawn called.
"I have to tell you what happened tonight" She said.
"Dawn I told you, NO DETAILS" I told her as I was making myself comfortable in the bed.
"It's not that. Well, it is that, but is what happened after"
"I'm following"
"So we were having sex…"
"Dawn!"
"And he couldn't continue"
"You mean…" I trailed down.
"It went down" I'm sorry for Jason, and his It.
"Then what happened?"
"He started to say that he couldn't be with me because I had sex with a vampire"
"But you didn't. You told me you just let him bit you" Dawn called me the night that happened; I was in the kitchen with Hannah munching on some ice cream when my phone rang. Dawn didn't get shy and let me put her on speaker phone while Hannah and I listened to her little adventure.
Hannah is a fan of my sister. She says is because she likes her confidence. I think is because she likes her dating history.
"But Jason doesn't need to know that" Atta girl. "Then he wouldn't leave, so I grabbed the gun I kept on the bathroom" In case some redneck try to get into our house and have her way with us. Her words, not mine. "And forced him to leave only wearing a blanket"
"So that means that The Thing is off"
"Sorry Little. I think it just wasn't meant to be"
"I have to go to sleep. But I'll come in the morning before I go back to Shreveport, alright?"
"I'll be waiting"
.
When I woke up, I got out of bed and follow the attractive smell of breakfast all the way to the kitchen.
When I got there, I see Sookie and Adele talking about Sookie's feelings for Bill. But what really caught my attention was when they mentioned that Bill was inmune to Sookie's ability.
"Wait, you can't read Bill's mind?"
"No, that's part of why I like him, I don't have to worry of hearing something I won't like"
"That's so cool" Then Adele told us about Sookie's grandfather and how he could know things, just like Sookie knows things by hearing people's minds.
After that, it was my time to leave. "Well, I have to go and say goodbye to Dawn" I said, getting up from the table.
Adele got up as well. "But is so early" Not really.
"Yeah, but I want to catch Dawn before her shift starts and spend the rest of the day in bed, so…"
"Alright, just be careful"
"I will" Then as I was headed to the door, I called back. "Bye Adele, bye Sookie!"
.
When I got to the condo Dawn's car was still parked. Good, I came in time.
I got out of the car and went to open the door.
Huh, it's locked.
I used my key and called out to Dawn when I didn't see her. "Dawn!"
No answer.
I started walking towards her room. "Dawn, did you overslept again?"
I opened the door and saw a bulge under the covers.
I walked towards the bed. "C'mon Dawnie, time to wake up" I said as I pulled to covers off of her.
To find her lying stiff with her eyes open.
"Dawn?"
