"Eric. Since when have I ever let you do anything that I don't approve of? You might issue a makers command, but you still know that I am not especially impressed." Pam said.

That was true.

"And, I swear to all that is holy, if you ever repeat that again. I will personally send you to the true death. Do you hear me? Sookie is the best thing that ever happened to you, ever since I have known you. Don't you ever repeat that again! Do you hear me?" Pam screeched at me, hitting me over the top of the head with the blood stained t-shirt.

"And, now, if you are finished being an arsehole, we can go into the club. I'm rather tired of the two of us just sitting here doing nothing" Pam snapped.

"Fine. But for future reference, I am almost certainly not an arsehole" I said, as we both climbed out of the car.

"You are almost certain that you are not an arsehole?" Pam quipped, raising her eyebrow at me.

I pointedly ignored her.

"Tara. I already told you. I don't want to go to a club or anything. I just want a quiet night in tonight, before i get married tomorrow. Is that really too much to ask?" I moaned at my best friend, who just looked at me with an exasperated expression on her face.

"I'm getting married tomorrow ... I am not joining a convent!" I remarked, repeating a line from the movie that we had just watched.

"Hooka. Do you seriously think that we would ever let you join a convent? Besides, to do that, you would have to dump your sexy ass motherfuckin' man." Lafayette pointed out.

I narrowed my eyes at him.

"That's exactly what I's thought" he smirked.

"Fine" I said. "Where are we going to?"

Tara and Lafayette grinned. "See. I knew that you would come around" Tara remarked.

I rolled my eyes at her.

"Let's got and get you bitches cleaned up!" Lala said, and forcefully dragged me back into Tara's room to get changed.

Two hours, later the three of us were standing outside a strip club in Shreveport.

"Tara. I really don't want to go to a strip club" I whined. I had been doing a lot of that for the past couple of hours. It is my fault if I am whining when all I really wanted to do was to stay in the house with my fiancé the night before we get married?

"I know that you don't, Sookie. But we are here now, and I will not be letting you moan all night" Tara snapped at me.

"Anyways, bitches, we gots you a surprise" Lafayette chimed in.

I groaned.

Lafayette's surprises were hardly ever anything to shout home about.

"And what could that surprise of yours possibly entail?" I asked, really rather snarkily.

"Hookah. You is just going to have to be a little bit more patient" Lafayette chimed in.

Fuck. he really made me want to punch him sometimes.

"And when you two little whiny bitches have stopped moaning, can we go now. It freezes balls out here, and I am bored." Tara said, giving the both of us an evil glare.

Lafayette simply just shrugged, and I refused to look at my best friend as the three of us slowly made our way into the club.

"Pamela. We have been here long enough. It is time that we were heading back to Fangtasia. I have work to finish off before the wedding tomorrow" I groaned at my progeny. Honestly, we had been here for over two and a half hours, and I was starting to get really, really bored.

"No. Eric. This is the last night of your freedom before you get married. It is the night before Sookie firmly wraps a ball and chain around your neck. So, no. we are not going now. You haven't even had one single lap dance or looked at one single stripper, yet. And we almost certainly will not be leaving until you get at least one lap dance from a semi-naked, at the very most stripper. And she has to be at least topless. You can even take your pick of which one that you want. If you can make any of what I just said out." Pam answered.

"Pamela" I growled again, my voice a simple tone of warning. "You will be waiting for a very, very long time before I receive any lap dances from any of these …. of these … women"

"And I am very glad to hear it, honey" said a soft, sweet feminine voice from behind me. I put my bottle of true blood back down onto the bar, and turned around to see my beautiful lover standing in front of me, with her two best friends – Lafayette Reynolds and Tara Thornton were standing on either side of her.

"Well, fancy meeting you here, Sookie" Pam said in a bored voice that let everyone know that she and presumably either Tara or Lafayette had planned for this to happen.

"I know, Pam. What a surprise is this" Sookie answered, coming to stand close to me.

The five of us made small talk for a little while, and after ordering in some drinks for us, we moved to an empty table that was situated a little bit away from the bar.

"Hey, Pam" Sookie asked when the chat between us had died down a little bit about an hour later.

"Yes, what is it, Sookie?" Pam replied.

"You know when you said that Eric wouldn't be leaving this club until he has received one semi-naked lap dance" Sookie asked.

"Yes" Pam said, slowly and deliberately as if she were completely unsure of what Sookie was going to say next. Come to think of it, I had absolutely no idea of what Sookie was going to say next.

"Does it still count if the lap dance is from me?" Sookie finished.

Floored. I was completely floored.

I sat there dumbstruck and lost for words.

Pam too appeared as if she didn't know quite what to say either.

"I'll take that as a yes, then, shall I?" Sookie asked a few seconds later when nobody else spoke.

So … review to let me know what you think …
