Sookie and I spent the night not doing much. I had gotten a text from Godric that they were going to see the Queen of Louisiana before going to Pam. Sookie had also told me that she had heard from Tara. Apparently Tara had been kidnapped and brought here by another vamp and had a plan to get us out of the room once the sun was up.
“What’s Eric like when you’re with him”, Sookie asked.
I sighed and turned to her on the bed, “Why do you want to know”.
She shrugged but from the blush coming up her cheeks I knew, “He’s mostly the same I guess just more open and nicer though he’d hate if he knew I called him nice. I still think you shouldn’t go there”.
“Why not apparently Bill is just using me”?
“He loves you and you’re an idiot if you don’t see that. While I’m angry at Bill for telling Edgington about me he tried to tell you to leave you just wouldn’t listen. He’s always trying to protect you and you just seem to want to throw it in his face. He’s a vampire Sookie and he’s been that way for a long time. You saw how Lorena was that could have been Bill if he hadn’t gotten away from her. He’s handling things the best way he knows how considering all the vampire politics going on”, I sat up while I was speaking. “Eric finds you fascinating because of your gifts and how you smell but as far as I know it doesn’t get any deeper than that”.
She turned over than whether she was upset or just thinking I didn’t care. I had enough to worry about getting out of here than her feelings for Eric.
Sookie sat up quickly and moved to the door, “Tara’s coming”.
We stood on either side of the door and we waited.
The doors opened and Tara came in with a large bowl in her hands, “Great you fell asleep and let her escape”?
“No”, when the guard stepped in Sookie used a statue on her side to hit him. I grabbed a vase on my side to hit him as well when he went to move at Sookie. Tara joined us until the werewolf finally stayed down.
We quickly went to head out, “He has werewolves patrolling the grounds by day but if we can get to one of his cars and hotwire it we might be able to”, Tara tells us as we go down the stairs.
Sookie interrupts, “What about Bill? Where are the slave quarters”?
Tara looks angry, “What he was covered in blood, he was going to let them kill me? I’m not risking my life to save him and I suggest you don’t either”.
“He may not be dead yet. They forced him to do all that other stuff that’s not who he is”, Tara moves towards the door with an angry sigh, “I am not leaving him here”, Sookie finishes.
I’m surprised considering the conversation Sookie and I had earlier.
“You’re a fucking idiot”, Tara tells her.
“Just find us a way out of here”, Sookie says while she grabs my hand pulling me out the door. We rush around the building and see a much smaller shed like building and decide to start there.
As we get to the building we notice Coot and Debbie come out one of the doors with blood on their faces. We watch as they kiss but can’t hear what they’re saying. We wait and watch as they run to the woods before we try the door they had come out of. We enter quietly and let our eyes adjust to the dark.
“Bill”, Sookie calls out when she sees him lying on the floor covered in blood with silver on his wrists and ankles and rushes to him. I stand back a little knowing Lorena is in here as well. “Please, say something, Bill. Please don’t be dead not after everything we’ve been though. I won’t let you go. I won’t”.
“Sookie”, he whispers.
“I’ll get you out of here. I’ll make you well if it’s the last thing ever I do”, he chuckles at that. “I love you Bill Compton”.
“Well isn’t that heartwarming”, Lorena says and before Sookie can really look up Lorena has grabbed her and pressed her to the wall.
I quietly and slowly move over to Bill keeping Lorena and Sookie in the corner of me eye. I pull the silver from his wrists and ankles. I hear Sookie scream and look up to see Lorena has bitten her. Bill moves at her scream using the chains that were on his wrist to wrap around Lorena’s throat. I move back out of the way so they can stake Lorena.
Right after Lorena is gone Tara and Alcide come through the door to find Sookie at Bills side.
“Is he dead”, Tara asked her.
“No. He’s in real bad shape but he’s”, Sookie starts to answer.
“Are you sure”, Tara asked, “cause he looks dead”.
“He’s not dead. When vampires die this is what they look like”, Sookie says as she grabs a handful of Lorena’s remains.
While Tara and Sookie were talking Alcide was asking if I was alright I nodded.
“Ladies we need to get out here there are wolves all over the place”, Alcide tells us.
“I know”, Sookie says.
“Sookie it’s only a matter of time before they come back”, he tells her.
“I said I know. Please help me wrap him up”, she asks Alcide.
“Hell no, we don’t got time for that”, Tara says.
“I’m not leaving without him”, Sookie says.
I move over and grab the tarp that bill had been lying on and move it beside him so we can move him onto it. It only takes a couple minutes with Alcide’s help and we’re about to go when Debbie comes in.
“Aww, shouldn’t have”, she brings up a gun, “vampire burrito for me”?
“Let everyone else go and take the vamp with them. You and me we can talk”, Alcide tries.
“Fuck you, I’m the one with the fucking gun and none of ya’ll leaving”, she says.
“Sweetheart”.
“I ain’t you’re sweetheart no more. Now give me a minute to think”, she turns the gun on Alcide.
Sookie speaks up apparently she had heard something in Debbie’s head, “Don’t even think about it bitch”.
“You sure picked a dumb ass time to call me bitch, bitch”, Debbie turns the gun back to Sookie.
Tara grabs Sookie’s hand and I inch closer to Debbie. Alcide’s eyes fix on me and he shakes his head.
“I got this”, Alcide says bringing Debbie’s attention back to himself and I move even closer.
I think at Sookie as hard as I can until she looks at me. Do something to distract her a second I have an idea.
I move a little closer and suddenly Sookie screams. I use Debbie’s confusion and I run at her effectively knocking the gun out of her hands. Alcide picks up the gun.
I knew she was stronger from the V so I quickly move behind Alcide.
Coot chose that moment to walk in the building, “What the hell’s going on here”?
Alcide barely blinks an eye as Coot comes running toward him he raises the guns and shoots. Coot growls as he drops to his knees and his eyes turn golden about to change but Alcide takes another shot hitting Coot in the head.
“Oh my god”, Debbie yells looking down at Coot’s body. “Oh my fucking god”, she says again as she kneels beside him.
“I’m sorry Debbie, he gave me no choice”, Alcide says.
She turns her eyes up to him, “You had a choice”, she stands, “and you chose those fang bangers over one of your own”, she seethes at him pointing at Sookie and then myself.
She moves toward the door but Alcide moves in front of her and points the gun at her, “Go on get him in the van.
We all move quickly and get Bill in the back. Sookie climbs in with him. I get a bad feeling and climb in with her. Alcide comes out and closes the doors before we’re speeding off. I feel a few bumps and some yelps before it settles down.
The van finally stops bouncing and it seems we’re on a road.
“Bill”, Sookie says trying to wake him up.
She looks around when he gives no response and then grabs the first sharp object she sees. I grab her hand.
“You can’t what if he drains you he’s lost a lot of blood”, I say.
“I have to he’s going to die if I don’t do something”, she argues.
“It’s a stupid idea and I have a bad feeling about it. Maybe he’ll be fine with Tru Blood we could ask Alcide to stop”, I try.
She just shakes her head and pulls her hand free quickly cutting into her arm and pressing it to his lips. The feeling gets worse and I know it’s gonna be bad. I sit watching as Bill finally begins to drink. He pulls away from her wrist but instead of stopping he turns over so he’s on top of her and bites into her neck.
She tries getting him to stop but he doesn’t listen as he continues to drink. I look around and see some tools lying around I grab a wrench and move forward I hit him as hard as I can over the head. He turns toward me and snarls his hand moves quickly and he hits me. My head snaps to the side and also hits the side of the truck. I hear my phone ringing before I black out.
I come to lying on a bed and to the sound of beeping. I open my eyes slowly to the bright lights of the room. I turn my head to the side and see Sookie on another bed.
“You’re awake”, I heard from the other side of the bed. I turn seeing Alcide there. “What happened”?
“Sookie decided she had to feed Bill and cut her wrist. Apparently it worked too well”, I told him.
“Why didn’t you stop her”, Tara asked angry, though I don’t think I’ve ever seen her any other way.
“I told her he would probably drain her and we argued but she did it anyway”, I say and then Jason comes in the room.
“Hey, how are you doing”, he asks.
“My head hurts”.
“What happened to you though? We know he didn’t bite you”, Alcide asks.
“I hit him in the head with a wrench and he hit me back but much harder and then I hit the side of the truck”, I then remembered my phone ringing. “Has anyone seen my phone”?
Alcide pulls it out of his pocket, “I turned it off it wouldn’t stop ringing”.
I turn it on and see I have about twenty voicemails and at least twice that many missed calls from each Eric and Godric. I decide to listen to the voicemails later and call Godric.
“Little one why haven’t you answered I felt your fear and then nothing I was so worried”, Godric says as soon as he answers.
“I’m sorry for worrying you. We were able to get out but then there were some problems”, I tell him.
“What kind of problems and where are you that beeping is very annoying”, he asks.
“I’m in the hospital there was an incident with Sookie and Bill almost draining her”, I tell him leaving out what happened to me until he’s safe away from Edgington. “When will you be able to be back”?
“I’m not sure. We’re going to get Pam tonight and then head back to Mississippi. I’ll let you know as soon as I know. I already contacted Daniel and he’ll be at Eric’s when you get there”, he tells me.
“Alright, I’ll text you when I get there”.
“I have to go now but I’ll hopefully see you soon little one”.
“There is no hopefully about it you better come back”, I tell him and I smile when he chuckles.
“Of course, good bye little one”.
“Good bye Godric”, I say then hang up and set the phone down.
Everyone sits waiting for Sookie to wake up when suddenly all hell breaks loose at the appearance of Bill. I just listen as Tara yells at him.
“Tara be quiet I get something happened while you were with the vampires but what happened wasn’t all Bill’s fault. Sookie shouldn’t have done it. It’s like putting a delicious feast in front of people who are starving and tell them they can only have one bite. It’s Jason’s decision not yours”, she glares at everyone as she walks out of the room.
Jason agrees and everyone watches as Bill gives Sookie his blood through the IV in her arm. When her eyes open she screams. The room erupts in chaos as everyone starts arguing and Jason moves over to Sookie asking if she’s okay but she just stares at Bill.
“I need to speak to Bill, alone”.
“So he can finish what he started, hell no”, Tara says.
“Tara everyone please”, Sookie says.
“Ya’ll heard her, out”, Lafayette says.
Everyone leaves except me since I’m still in the bed but I turn away from them.
“You’re afraid of me”, Bill states.
“Can you blame me”, Sookie asks.
“I never meant to hurt you. I couldn’t stop”.
“I know”.
“I can’t take back what I’ve done”, he tells her.
“No you can’t. I don’t know how to start forgiving you; don’t know if I ever will. There’s too much”.
“I’m not asking for your forgiveness. I don’t want to be forgiven”.
“From the day we met it’s been one long bloody fight and I keep waiting for it to be over, for us to be happy to start our lives together. Like a normal couple but it’s never gonna happen for us is it”.
“I want you to have all that. I want you to lie in the sunlight, have children, and grow old with someone. I want you to have the life you deserve and I cannot give it to you. I love you Sookie Stackhouse and I will love you forever”, Bill tells her.
“I love you too”, she responds.
“Be safe”, with that he leaves and I turn over to see her crying and I want to feel bad for her but the anger side of me was winning.
Where the hell did she get the idea that she could date a vampire and have a normal life? If she wants the sunlight and children it would never be with a vampire. I get that she liked that she couldn’t hear them but it’s a stupid reason to start a relationship with one. Vampires are violent, possessive, and can be cruel if they want. She wanted Bill to be someone he wasn’t. Whatever she was drew vampires to her whether it was Bill or someone else with less control she wouldn’t have escaped all this fighting and it pissed me off she was trying to blame him for it. I decided to keep it to myself since they seemed to generally get back together quickly.
A doctor comes in and checks us both over.
Alcide came in after the doctor left, “They said you can go”, he tells me.
I sit up and look around for my clothes. Alcide grabs them off the chair and hands them to me. I go to the bathroom to get dressed.
“Well you take me back to Eric’s”, I ask Alcide.
“Yeah, will you be safe there”, he asks.
“Daniel will be with me but if you’re volunteering to play bodyguard I wouldn’t say no”.
He nods and we were then on our way to Eric’s. It was almost a three hour drive before we get to Eric’s and it was only a few hours till sunrise. I text Godric as soon as we’re pulling up the driveway. Alcide gets out of the truck and follows me inside. We find Daniel sitting on the couch and he stands as soon as he sees us.
“You guys hungry”, I ask moving to the kitchen.
They both say yes and I quickly make us some spaghetti. I jump when I hear the door open and close and both Daniel and Alcide move in front of the table.
“Didn’t Eric tell you there’s a no dogs rule”, Pam says as she comes around the corner. Alcide growls at her and she just smiles.
“They didn’t come back with you”, I ask.
“No, they had something to take care of first”, she says then disappears probably gone downstairs to change. When I finish eating I tell the boys goodnight and head downstairs.
I take a shower and climb into the bed. I grab my phone texting Godric to see if everything’s alright.
I smile when my phone alerts me a minute later that I have a text.
‘Everything’s fine little one. He was angry you two were gone but he didn’t take it out on me like you thought he might. Sleep now I should be back tomorrow night.’
‘Goodnight’, I sent back.
I tried to fall asleep, I really did but before I knew it I looked at the clock to find it was already after noon. I finally decide to give up on sleep and go upstairs. Alcide and Daniel are asleep on the couch so I quietly make some coffee. Once I have a large cup made I go back downstairs and sit on the couch.
The house is so quiet it’s unnerving and I turn the television on just to have some background noise. I sit there drinking my coffee thinking about the past two months. It’s so strange to think it has only been two months since I met him. I can still remember the first time I saw him in the basement, the sadness in those beautiful blue eyes after the bomb had gone off in his home, the horrible pain I felt when he almost met the sun on the roof, and the love in his eyes when he looks at me now. I love Godric.
I startle slightly almost spilling my coffee everywhere at that thought. I knew I liked him but I didn’t realize it had turned into love. I felt warmth at the thought. I love him. I wasn’t sure I would ever fall in love or even if I wanted to but now I couldn’t even imagine not being with him.
I spent the rest of the day drinking coffee to stay awake and watching movies. When the sun had set I went upstairs to make dinner and sat on the couch waiting for Godric to come home. I heard the door open and in an instant he was kneeling before me smiling.
“I missed you little one”, he said and leaned in capturing my lips with his own.
