I do not own True Blood or any characters except Bri, Andrew and Caroline

Thanks for the reviews!!!!!! I just read through the last chapter on the net. I'm so sorry for all the spelling mistakes!

Chapter 8 – Revelations

"Enough!" I looked up to see Godric standing on a balcony above the alter. At least he's still alive I thought. Everyone stopped to look at Godric. Including Eric who let go of Steve's neck.

"You came for me I assume, Underling" He looked straight at the man in the cowboy hat, he still had his victim in his grip, his fangs next to his neck, "Yes Sheriff"

"These people have not harmed me, you see we can coexist. Mr Newlin, I do not wish create bloodshed when none is called for, help me set an example; if we leave you in peace will you do the same?" Steve looked disgusted with Godric's request, "I will not negotiate with sub humans" He knelt in front of Eric and loosened his tie to show more of his neck, "Kill me, Do it, Jesus will protect me" Eric just looked at Steve like he was dirt, he wasn't wrong.

"I am actually older than your Jesus" I felt my mouth open, No way, it kind of made sense though, the way he talked and acted, he defiantly was not from around this time. "I wish I could have known him, but I missed it." Then he was gone, I looked around to see him suddenly have Steve by the back of his neck.

"Good people, who of you are willing to die for this man's madness?" Everyone just stayed quiet. Sure I thought you listen to him, not me. "That's what I thought. Stand down everyone" He looked towards the man with the cowboy hat who did not look happy now. Finally the other vampires followed and let other's go. "Now go home, it's over now" I saw Sookie hold on to Bill and say

"Oh thank God Bill" I guess I was right about it being Bill. He held her close and quietly said "It's alright your safe now." Godric let go of Steve who fell to the floor, "I dare say my faith in human kind is stronger than yours"

As everyone walked away I heard Steve cry, "Please don't leave me" I walked up to him "Where's my dad? Tell me" Steve just smiled,

"He is making arrangements"

"What? If he is hurt, I swear to your God I will kill you!"

"Briseis" Godric just looked at me, "come" I followed Godric outside, my mind on my dad.


"I have waited a long time to get you on your own" I was trapped in the bathroom like an animal, everyone else was downstairs at the party, I tried all night to avoid this conversation but now there was no way out, I was stuck, "Now spill" I sighed and sat down on the toilet seat, I could just try and keep denying everything to her but lying to a mind reader was like telling a baby not to cry, impossible.

"I don't know, I don't know" I whined putting my head in my hands, I had managed to avoid Eric all night and being with Sookie in the bathroom helped a little bit, I just really didn't want to see him, I kept thinking about what he said to me after it all, "Another time". What the hell was that? I couldn't believe I kissed him, I hated him. I talked to Godric for a minute before I saw him coming towards me and excused myself, I was running away like a scared kid.

"Please tell me why I did it" I looked to Sookie, maybe she could explain it to me.

"Bri sweetie, you're a beautiful 18 year old girl, of cause you want to kiss guys and let's be honest Eric is gorgeous; just don't tell Bill I said that" I smiled at her attempts to lighten my mood.

"But I hate him,"

"You sure about that, I saw him with Godric too, maybe seeing him like that made you see him in a whole new light, Eric is a creep don't get me wrong, but maybe he's a caring creep" I huffed.

"i guess your right, thanks Sookie" She knelt down in front of me and gave me a hug

"I'm gonna find Bill and Jason" Turns out the blond man with the paintball gun was Sookie's brother Jason, when I met him, he looked me up and down looking interested and asked how old I was, which caused Sookie to punch him in the chest, apart from that he seemed like a really nice guy, he did save our lives so I owe him for that.

"Okay I'll see you in a bit" I stayed in the bathroom for at least another 5 minutes according to the clock on the wall, I knew I had to get out eventually so I opened my door and looked both ways, it was clear. I went downstairs and smacked straight into a familiar chest. Don't look up, Don't look up I shouted in my head, I couldn't do it I knew I had to face him, I just really didn't want to, I mean what if I look at his face and immediately started kissing him again, the annoying part of that idea was a tiny part of me wanted that Stupid teenage hormones, I finally looked up to his face to see him grinning down at me, probably because my cheeks were redder than beetroot, he still looked perfect Dam!.

"You seemed to have disappeared all night, I hope it isn't me" there was his stupid cocky attitude again; of course he knew it was him. I didn't trust myself to say anything to him so I just started walking to where everyone else was. I felt his hand on my harm "You can't keep running forever" I knew he was right, I continued walking when I felt his hand on my arm,

"Bri please I-" He was stopped by a man standing in the middle of the room. I recognized him, he was with the fellowship, what was he doing her?

"Excuse me everyone, if I could have your attention, my name is Luke McDonald, I'm a member of the fellowship of the sun" That got everyone's attention, Stan who was the gut in the cowboy hat before stood up ready to pounce.

"And I have a message for you all, from reverend Steve Newlin" He opened his jacket to reveal his chest with a bomb covered in stakes and silver. I freezed Not again.

ERIC POV

She was running away, I could tell, she had managed to avoid me the entire night. I laughed at her determination to not see me. I knew why, I couldn't say it didn't surprise me that she kissed me but I knew that I enjoyed it. For a woman so pure she did know how to kiss a man and get a reaction from him. I knew she was thinking about it whenever she blushed in front of me. Everything about her I found entertaining, she was not like woman I had in the past, no woman would have kicked me like that but she did, knowing it might have got her killed. I could not stop thinking about that kiss, why? What was she to me? All I knew was that I felt protective of her; I assumed that was because she was a friend of Godric's. I headed towards my maker and noticed the sadness in his eyes, his behavior had me worried, he was different, not the Godric I had known. I walked towards him after I had removed Isabel's human from the house.

"The human has been dispatched, I told him not to stop driving until he has reaches the Mexican border, I have arranged an AB Negative human for you, extremely rare"

"Thank you, but I'm not hungry"

"You have to feed eventually, I doubt the fellowship had anything to offer" I tried to lighten his mood, but it failed, his expression still the same, I knew I had to ask, "Why would you not leave when I came for you?"

"They didn't treat me badly, you 'd be shocked at how ordinary they are" I was angry at his comment

"They do nothing but fan the flames of hatred for us"

"Lets be honest, we are frightening, after thousands of years we haven't evolved at all, we've only become more brutal," He shook his head and then smiled lightly at me, "How is Briseis"

"She is fine, she is busy worrying about her father, and avoiding me"

"I knew you to would like one another, you are both very much the same, she cares for you Eric it is obvious on her face" I couldn't help but smile at that thought "And by the look on your face you care for her too" That surprised me, he wasn't right, I did not care for this girl, she amused me, that was all,

"That is not true, I do not care for the human" Godric just chuckled at my reaction

"I have been your only companion that you have truly cared for, maybe it is time for change" I was beginning to get confused

"Godric I don't u-"

"I like Briseis, I feel as protective of her as a brother does to a sister. Care for her Eric, let her into your heart and to your life, you need her as much as she needs you" I did not believe what I was hearing, why was he saying this? Was he right? I knew I had to speak to her. At that moment I was taken out of my thoughts by the sight of Sookie walking down the stairs, I walked towards her,

"Where is Bri?" Sookie didn't see surprised by my question smiling at me,

"I have no idea" She said sweetly, I did not like being lied to. She saw my reaction and chuckled;

"it's like dealing with two teenagers" she said before she waltzed of to her vampire. I decided to stand close to the stairs; there would be more chance of spotting her here. After a few moments I felt a thump on my chest and looked down to see exactly who I was looking for. She seemed to refuse to look up at me, eventually she looked up, her face red that caused me to grin, I couldn't help but tease, "You seemed to have disappeared all night, I hope it isn't me" Her face seemed to get hotter, her green eyes glowed at me, I knew she was embarrassed, it just added to her beauty, her hair trailed down her back in waves, now it was me that wanted to grab her and touch her face. I realized that my whole outlook on her had changed since I had spoken to Godric, Was he right? Maybe I did need this girl, I had never felt the love of a human girl, maybe this was my chance, maybe she was my chance. She continued to look at me, then she just turned away to walk to the others, "You can't keep running forever" I knew I had her there, but she just kept walking, I knew I had to stop her I did the first thing that occurred to me, I lightly grabbed her arm, I forget how warm her skin was, almost as tantalizing as her smell. She looked back at me, "Bri please I-"I was about to continue when I was stopped by a man standing in the middle of the room. Already I was annoyed for him disrupting me

"Excuse me everyone, if I could have your attention, my name is Luke McDonald, I'm a member of the fellowship of the sun." I immediately tensed up.

"And I have a message for you all, from reverend Steve Newlin" He opened his jacket to reveal his chest with a bomb covered in stakes and silver. My first thought BRI! I grabbed her arm pinning her to the ground, the sound was deafening for the humans whereas I was too preoccupied. Once the blast was over, I heard moans and cries of others around me. I checked Bri's face to see her unconscious, I checked her for wounds, No I saw a bullet hole in her chest. I knew I was going to save her, I did not have to think twice.

BRI POV

My eyes opened to a bright light, (no not heaven), it looked like a ceiling light, I moved my neck and looked around where I was, it was a large room, really pretty. I moved my body; I realized I was in bed. I looked under the covers to see I was in a tank top and pajama bottoms; I panicked thinking who had changed my clothes. Wait I thought trying to remember what happened, last thing I remembered was Luke opening his jacket with the bomb. The good news was I don't remember having another dream about Eric, thank God. The weird thing was I didn't hurt at all, you'd think after being caught in a huge explosion I would at least still feel sore.

"You're awake, thank God, you've been asleep forever!" Sookie squeaked, she walked through the door and noticed i was still looking at what i was wearing "Don't worry i dressed you, definatly wouldn't let my brother" her voice still high pitched, she walked towards my bed, I laughed at how she was acting, like I had just come out of a coma or something.

"Hey Squeaky" I loved being around Sookie, she was really a really great friend to me, I hoped I'd still see her after this was all over.

"How you feeling" I sat up, leaning my head against the headboard,

"I'm good, but the whole being knocked unconscious thing is getting pretty old now, the weird thing is I don't feel anything, I mean I was right next to that bomb and look at me nada" I looked at my arms and legs again, "No cuts, no bruises, I'm like Superwoman, I mean I..." The look on Sookie's face stopped me, she looked kinda worried. "What's wrong Sookie? You look like you've killed someone, come on spill" She walked towards me and sat in front of me on the bed.

"There is a reason why you're not as cut up as you thought you would be"

"Which is...?" She was taking way too long to tell me this

"Well, when the bomb went off Eric managed to shield you from the explosion" Wait Eric "but um, a few silver Bullets managed to get you, now remember you could have been dead in minutes if we didn't do anything, so Eric, well he-

"Sookie please I'm getting grey hairs here!"

"He gave you his blood!" She blurted out

"WHAT!" (AN – I was going to finish there, but I'm not that cruel)

"What do you mean he gave me his blood?"

"I mean, you were dying Bri, there was nothing else we could do, other vampires offered to do it , but Eric just went crazy and shouted 'Mine' at them, I've never seen him like that before."

"What the hell does that mean?"

"I think that is something you should talk about with Eric" she went to get up, she was not getting out of this

"Hay, you're not leaving until you tell me what Eric meant by 'Mine'!" I was too busy shouting to notice the door open again

"You are awake" I let out a little squeak in surprise

"Speak of the devil" Sookie muttered, I think Eric heard though because of the smirk plastered on his face."

"Well I'm gonna go" Sookie jumped of the bed and ran to the door.

"I hope you fall over!" I shouted back at her, I heard Eric chuckle at my outburst, I don't know why but I grabbed the covers up to my neck, I felt way too underdressed. He walked towards the end of my bed, he was making me feel jumpy, I felt like I had to say something,

"Hi" Good job I mentally kicked myself.

"How are you feeling?" My heart skipped at his concern

"I'm good, apparently thanks to you, you want to explain to me what the whole giving me your blood thing means" Eric just folded his arms and looked towards me his face serious

"Firstly it means you're alive, you will also be a little stronger and faster than before, but it will eventually ware off."

"Is that it?" I asked. He looked towards the door and lightly smiled

"I believe Sookie is waiting to come back in, I should go" I couldn't help but feel disappointed

"Oh, yea okay. I'll see you later" He walked towards the door, when he opened the door I knew I had to say it "Thank you Eric, I guess I really owe you one now" I smiled at him, he just nodded at me and walked out the door. After a couple of seconds I heard the door open again, I pulled the covers over my head, why did I have to feel like this?

"Hey Sweetie" I looked over the covers to see Sookie smiling innocently at me

"Hello traitor" She ignored that comment,

"So, what did Eric say?" I told her mine and Eric's very short conversation, she looked confused

"So wait he didn't tell you about the sex dreams" I swear my mouth dropped to the floor

"Sex dreams?!"

"Oh he didn't tell you"

"Well will you tell me please?" I was becoming a little hysterical and I think Sookie could tell

"When a vampire gives someone their blood, they get completely healed, but they also start to become more attractive to that vampire, so because Eric gave you his blood, you are going to become way more attracted to him, although from the way you kissed him there couldn't be any more attraction between you to" I felt myself blush, my dreams about Eric couldn't get any more heated, I didn't think some vampire blood would change that.

"I mean the dreams i had about Bill when I had his blood, i mean-"

"Eww i don't want to know thanks" i tried to get rid of the mental picture

"Sorry"

"What am I supposed to do Sookie?"

"I'm sorry hun, but I have no idea"

"That's helpful thanks" She shrugged her shoulders and smiled at me,

"Okay I'm gonna let you rest, you've had a pretty hectic day"

"See you later" she walked out the door, giving me time to rest. I guess I needed to do something to take my mind of Eric.
