After school i walked over to Merlottes, Sam was in his office doing some work, and i only knew that because i had walked right in like i owned the place. "Nice to see you Fae of course you can come in to my office while i'm working." He said. "Sorry." I said as i sat down in one of the chairs. "Sookie said you want to talk to me?" He nodded and put some papers away.
"I've talked to your father about letting you have a job here. He said that it was a great idea and you could if you wanted to." As he talked i made sure to pay attention. "So would you like to?" He asked. "Of course!" He grinned and pulled out some papers. "Alright i just need you to fill this out and you'll be working with Sookie." I nodded and took the pen and paper he offered, filling out everything.
"You know your social security number by heart?" He sounded a little surprised and when i read his mind i knew why. Most teenagers don't know them, usually it's the adults that do. "Yeah, i had to read it to dad so many times that i just started to remember it." He made this oh face and i handed him the paper work. "Alright, everything looks good. Heres your uniform, and you start tomorrow." With that he drove me home. I didn't ask him to he just kind of insisted and wouldn't take no for a answer.
"Hey you two! How did everything go?" Sookie smiled as soon as we walked threw the door at 6. "Well i have a job now." I smiled, neither Sookie or I missed Sam's grin. He was glad he was able to help me learn how this whole working thing works. "Well dinner's on the stove, i just finished so why don't we eat before i have to go to work?" She said and Sam took that as his queue but Sook and i stopped him. "Nu uh, Come on your staying for dinner." I told him as Sookie lead him to the kitchen.
"I've got things to do back at Merlottes." He tried but Sookie just looked him in the eyes. "You gave my neice a job and you made sure she got home safely today. This is my way of thanking you for everything." He didn't argue with her and soon we were all joking around and laughing. Just having a good time.
"Maxine got drunk the other night, completely wasted. She actually got up and was dancing on her chair." Sam told us laughing. "Poor Hoyt." Sook said trying not to laugh but honestly imagine that, it is scary, weird, and funny at the same time. She lost. "I wish i would have been there." I told them, unable not to laugh. "Fae if you had been there, you probally would have joined her and got everyone dancing." Sam laughed. I picked up my empty plate and theirs to. "You know it." I smiled and put the dishes in the sink.
I heard Sookie sigh and i looked back at them to see Sam looking at his watch. "Thank you for dinner, your a great cook. But if we're going to get to work on time we should go." They both stood up. "Thanks Sam, i'll meet you there." He gave her a half smile before pulling his keys out of his pocket. "Bye girls." I waved and told him i'd see him tomorrow. Sook said be there in about 30 minutes. Once Sam was gone Sookie looked at me.
"Godric's coming to watch you." I sighed and finished clearing the table. "I don't need a babysitter." She gave me the you wanna bet look. "Don't think of it that way." She said and went to the stairs. "He will be here as soon as the sun goes down. Do not open the door for anyone and if you get a vision that people are going to break in hide in the cubby hole Eric had installed when i went missing. Lock it and don't come out till your sure it's Godric." She said not giving me a chance to argue. She blocked me and went upstairs turning on the shower.
I started doing the dishes. I was extremely annoyed now. You would think i would be use to this by now, my entire life since moving in with dad has been, hide, fight, run, and lie. Granted i was aloud to have a semi normal life for a few years. Serena had been found in that stage of my life, i had become close to her, us being opposites i never expected us to be friends. I was always closer to guys and understood them a little better than i understood girls. Probally because i really only had dad to teach me. I was to young to know much when i lost mom.
"Bye Fae, keep the door and windows locked. I gave Godric a key and i told him he can come right in. Becareful and stay inside." She explained. "Fine, i shall run and hide should the house be attacked, cya Sook." She smiled and then left, i heard the deadbolt click in place and i sighed. Now i just needed to find something to do...
"This sucks." I said out loud as i looked threw the channels for the 15th time. I had nothing to do, i had already started the laundry, washed the dishes and put them away, swept the floor and moped, and done my homework. I wanted to go outside and go climb some trees or something but Sookie was right, for my safety i needed to stay inside. Which had led me to actually clean the house something i barely did, though it wasn't really dirty in the first place, i just basically picked up a bit. I didn't like living in dirty houses i was just use to it, so it didn't bother me that much.
That was when i noticed the romance book and was actually considering reading it. I looked away from it and focused on the tv, i would not read it. Sure enough about 8 minutes later, i was on chapter 2... God damn it. I put the book down and covered it with one of the pillows that sat on the couch, even that didn't work so i got up and turned off the tv. "Fine i give up, i'm going to my room. Stupid book! Stupid boredom!" Wow and now i'm talking to myself... great.
When i went in to my room i realized i had more or less been driving out of the living room by a book... i am seriously pathetic. So i did one of the things i had to be extremely bored to do, i grabbed my calculus book, layed down on the bed and started studying the lesson we were learning.
The sad part is i was really in to it because when i felt something cold touch me i yelped and fell off my bed. I glared at Godric as he tried and failed to hide his amusement. "Meany." I mumbled and got to my feet. Thankfully i didn't hit my head or anything. "Good evening Faelyn." He said as if he hadn't just scared me and made me embarass myself. "Don't you good evening Faelyn me mister, you do not do that. I'm way to use to being attacked, kidnapped and such and i thought it was going to happen again!" He found this amusing to...
I'm scolding him and he's amused. Annoying vampire. I walked out of my room and down the stairs heading to the kitchen and poured a glass of sweet tea, nuked a Tru blood and then handed it to him seeing as he was feeling the need to follow me at the moment. "Your strange." He told me and i wasn't sure if i should be insulted or take that as a compliment but i was confused. "That was random." Was my genius response.
"Most humans do not talk to vampires the way you just did and then walk away." He explained taking a seat on the couch. "Well their scared of what they don't know. They only know what the fellowship is telling them and they believe every word because vampires constantly prove those people right by attacking and draining humans. Some even murdering them for fun." I said not telling him anything he didn't know. "I've had the chance to learn that there are good and bad vampires just like there are good and bad humans. So i treat vampires the same way i would treat anyone else." It was true and i had proven it several times with Eric.
"As i said you are strange." He said but i could see the surprise he was hiding, in his blue grey eyes. Score for me i just surprised a old vampire! I smiled and took a sip of my tea before i heard the annoying buzzer sound that let me know that the clothes were dry. "I may just had to break it." I said to no one in particular as i set the tea down on the coffee table and went to switch the loads and fold the clean ones.
It was half way in the middle of folding Sookie's clothes that i found a pair of blood red thongs and it didn't take much to realize why she had bought them. I knew i was blushing, that was just how embarassed i was right now and i really did not want to touch them. I know they have been washed but i knew what she used them for. I picked up the clothes i had folded, left the room and retreated up the stairs. Placing the clothes on the her bed, i went to my room.
Looking at the calculus book that was still lying open on the bed, i picked in up and closed it, putting it away and then moved to look out the window. It was then that i saw Bill. Standing there maybe 50 feet away from the porch, grinning. "Godric, Bill's outside." I said as if he was in the same room as me and in seconds he had Bill by his neck. My vision changed i was no longer seeing Godric hurt Bill.
Three men ran threw the door that Godric had left open, looking in the rooms downstairs. "Come on girlie, master wants you. We won't hurt you." They started upstairs and each one chose a room to go threw, the red head with the moss colored eyes was outside my door.
Shit. I heard footsteps downstairs, well these guys obviously weren't aiming to be quiet. What the did next proved it, they yelled. "Come on girlie, master wants you. We won't hurt you." Still not going. I thought pushing open my window and climbed out on to the roof, shutting the window. Of course i had the Stackhouse luck so that was the first thing he checked. "Here you are." He chuckled.
"You do know i'm a minor right? You could get arrested for taking me." I said trying to distract him in till i could figure out a way to get the hell off this roof. "Human rules don't apply to me." He grinned, i could tell he was a were i just didn't know what type. Nor did i think he was stupid enough to consider himself free of rules, well all had rules we had to follow. I didn't say anything else instead i turned and ran. Probally not the smartest thing to do on a roof but he was getting closer. "Don't kill her!" Bill yelled. Which sounded like don't keel her.
"Do you have any idea how annoying your accent is! Do me a favor and shut up!" I yelled, it turned into a scream when i slipped. Thanks to the red head over here who jumped at me and i of course moved to avoid him and ended up slipping. In a second Godric had me. "Why the roof?" He asked, completely at ease like these people couldn't do a thing to him. "I couldn't get downstairs." I told him. "She is-" My eyes widened, i knew as soon as he finished his sentence i was screwed. "Mine." Godric cut him off and i couldn't help but be relieved and scared.
I was destracted when i saw how angry Bill was. "Do keep in mind Compton that i am older than you by centuries. Do not try to play these childish games with me. You will lose." The look on Bill's face was priceless and at the moment i really wished i had my camera. He looked shocked, surprised, scared, angry, and annoyed all at the same time. "I want you and your human out of my area by dawn." Bill said. "On what grounds?" Godric asked while all i could do was think oh my god what the hell have i gotten myself in to now.
When Bill didn't say anything i calmed down a little bit, a very little bit. "You have disrespected your King." Was his answer. "Really... that's all you got?" I said and he glared at me. "After you had us brought to your house and you tried to take my aunt from Eric and threatened to kill me in till you found out you couldn't take her. Then tried to take me. We could go to the magister, you realize that right? Why the hell are you doing this?" He just stared at me, i guess he didn't expect me to know about the magister.
"Seriously stop looking at me." I told him after a minute, it was annoying. Godric shot the were a glare and said were froze. Unsure what he should do. I almost said don't when he thought about attacking us. Almost. Thankfully i didn't even open my mouth to speak, so none of them had anyway of knowing. "Get the others, we're returning." Bill said coldly and i knew we had won. "You can stay in my area." He told us even colder.
Once he was gone and we were back on ground, i looked at Godric. "Thanks but you didn't have to." I was revering to the claiming, i mean what kind of sane vampire wants a bitchy teenager. "You would rather go with him?" He asked his eyebrow slightly raised. "Nope." I said and looked around, great i was getting paranoid. "Eric is here." He said confirming that we weren't alone. "Great..." I muttered and then the viking was in front of us.
"Compton still alive?" He asked. "Do you see his insides anywhere Eric?" I asked. "I had to claim her, he was going to." Godric said and Eric looked at me smirking. "Your disgusting." I told him and he chuckled. "I didn't say anything." Eric pulled out his phone and started txting someone. "Your telling Sookie aren't you?" I asked. "Go inside Fae." I fought the urge to flick him off and instead turned to the nearest tree and climbed up to the top. "I said inside not up a tree." He said loud enough so i could hear. I ignored him.
Ignoring their presence was pretty easy as i calmed down, the night sky always seemed to have that affect on me. I watched the stars for god knows how long, playing connect a star. It was when i saw headlights that i started to climb down. Sookie was out of her car before i was down the tree. "Fae! Are you alright?" She asked frantically. "Nope i climbed a tree injured." I said sarcastically and jumped landing on my feet and found my self caught her in hug. "Sook- A-air!" Small, blond, and faery has some strength.
She let me go about 10 seconds later. "Question. The point of scary her when i'm fine would be?" I asked Eric. "I just told her what happened, it's her house. Her business." Well he has a point. "Ok." I said and Sookie tugged on my arm dragging me inside. "We are so killing Bill." She growled and though i agreed with her, i wanted to retreat to my room. "I don't want you outside with Bill lurking." I am a active person most of the time, i can't just not go outside. "Sook-" I tried to say something. "Sit down Faelyn and do not argue with me." What the hell?
"Watch your thoughts." She said, i rolled my eyes and sat down on the couch. "The whole point of being able to think is so you can think whatever you want and not be judged by it. Though with you people just can't get away. You can not tell me to watch my thoughts." Same goes for me to, they can't get away. God i'm a freak. "Your not a freak." Sookie told me taking a seat next to me on the couch. The guys started wandering the house, no doubt making sure everything was safe.
"Ok, what kind of normal person annoys a viking vampire that is over 1,000 years old just for fun? What kind of normal person gets pictures in her head of things that are going to happen? What kind of normal person can live a life where she has to run, hide, fight, and lie just to get by in life? and still be sane... or atleast i think i'm still sane." I laughed at the last part and she smiled. "Who said Stackhouses were normal Faelyn. If we we're it would be no fun." She winked and i just knew Eric has currupted my aunt.
"The house is safe." Eric said and Sookie got up and hugged him and both proceeded to make out in front of me. "My eyes!" I yelled and covered them with my hands. I heard them both laugh. "Grow up Fae." Eric said and i uncovered my eyes and grinned. "Never." It was just way to much fun acting like a child. "Did you do your homework?" Sookie asked me. "Yes, i had nothing else to do while you were at work. Speaking of work, shouldn't you still be there?"
"I'm on my lunch break, i took it early so i could make sure you weren't being a pain." She said. "You know i should be offended but i'm not." I actually couldn't be because i could be a pain in the ass if i wanted to be. I know i could have pissed Godric off so bad he would have killed me just to get me to shut up. I nearly did that with Eric because he kept bugging me so i turned on him. "Do not do that." Sookie said sounding like a mother.
"I actually like Godric, he's not annoying." Yet anyway's, time will tell. "Everyone annoys you." Sook said. "That's not true, just Bill and his little pets, Eric, and Pam." I told her and she laughed at me. "You do realize if you keep telling off were's and vampires your probally not going to make it to 18." She was really worried about that, i could see it all over her face. "I only do it when it's justified and i feel safe enough." I told her and for the most part that was true. I had only told one of my kidnappers off when he kept calling me a white trash whore.
"Where's Godric?" Sookie asked randomly and it occured to me that between her and me we've been asking that a lot lately. "He's looking at one of Fae's school books." Eric said and i sighed. That means he's in my room. "What would your daddy say?" Sookie teased. "I don't even want to know." I told her and decided leave these to alone, the sexual tension in the room was enough to strangle me.
I walked in to my room and saw Godric looking at the calculus book, he looked completely and utterally confused. I didn't blame him, i barely understood it and had wondered what calculus had to do with things we do in our lives like the school claimed. "You okay?" I asked after a minute. "For lack of better words. Your school sucks." He said and i couldn't help it. I laughed. He just looked so serious. I guess he gave up on the book because he put it back where he had found it and tilted his head ever so slightly to the side, i stopped laughing as confusion took place of amusement as i watched he half-smile.
Then it dawned on me. What had i just run from? "Their at it again, aren't they?" He nodded slightly. I wasn't surprised by that, they were pretty close to jumping each other while i was in the same room. I had to distract Sookie by as Eric would put it being childish. In a second my obvious uncomfort probally changed to a evil smirk as i picked up a pen and paper, i didn't want to say anything because i knew that would just tip Eric off. On that note i also put up my sheilds.
Do you want to help me pull a prank on those two?
I handed him the paper, unable to stop myself from feeling like a kid in elementary school. I watched as a he read it and smirked. I didn't have to see him nod to know he would help, oh those two are going to be so pissed.
Godric and i had snuck downstairs and in to the kitchen, thankfully they were in Eric's little cubby because that made this easier. It was funny to see a vampire armed with reddi whip. I had a two liter of soda that i had shook. This was the most childish thing i've done in awhile. Quietly i walked to the cubby and opened the door, aware that Godric was right behind me. He rigged the can so it would spray them none stop as soon as he pressed the button and threw it down there. I undid the lid a little bit till i knew for sure as soon as it hit the ground it would pop off and the would have a root beer shower.
At the same time we dropped them and slammed the door shut. Almost instantly we heard Eric curse up a storm and Sookie scream. In no time Eric was trying to get out and get to us. "Your so dead Faelyn!" He yelled and i laughed and moved away from the door, while Godric held it shut. I didn't know how long Godric could keep it closed. "This isn't funny Fae! Let us out!" Sookie screamed at me and i found it funny how neither expected Godric to be helping me.
