I was sitting at the table listening to Sookie trying to explain Fairy to Jason and get him to understand. She finally stood up and went into the kitchen for something and when she came back she set a pocket watch on the table
“Where the hell did you get that”, Jason asked.
“I saw Granddaddy. He was there. He swore he’d only been there a few hours. Jason he looked just like we remember him. Time stands still there and no one knows it. That’s how we lost a year of our lives and Granddaddy lost twenty”.
“But where is he. You didn’t leave him there did you”?
“Jason, he’s gone, I’m sorry. But he wanted you to have that watch so you would always know he never meant to leave you”.
It was sad watching Jason go from being happy to upset over the loss of his Granddaddy but now I had to worry about other things. Namely Eric and Godric. Would they be angry over the disappearing or happy that I’m back or both. Hopefully I’ll find out soon as the sun is almost down.
I kept looking out the window at the darkening sky. Each time I looked made me worry more. A year is a long time to wait for someone. Would Godric have waited for me or found someone else. One thought of the Hotel Carmilla made my heart stop for a few beats. Is he still here?
I got up and moved out to the porch when I realized the sun was almost completely down. Sookie followed as well.
Bill arrived first, “My God, Sookie”. He moved up the stairs toward her but she backed up. “Forgive me I know I’m not welcome. I haven’t felt your presence in over a year”.
I ignored their conversation and looked out into the darkness and jumped a little when Eric showed up he looked at me and I can see the anger in him before he addresses Sookie, “Well I knew you weren’t dead”.
“Eric not now”, Bill tells him.
“I never lost hope”, Eric continues.
“Don’t you have an obligation to Fangtasia”?
“Pam can handle it”, Eric tells Bill.
They start talking over each other when Bill tells him, “Eric go”.
“Apparently I have to go but understand this; everyone who claims to love you your friends, your brother, even Bill Compton they all gave up on you; I never did. Nice paint”. He finally turns to me, “I believe we have much to discuss”.
He held out his hand and I quickly said bye to Sookie as I moved to his side and took his hand. Immediately he lifted me up and within minutes we’re arriving back at the house and he keeps a hold of my hand pulling me into the house and to the main sitting room.
He sat across from me, “Want to tell me where you were”?
“It’s a long story and I would prefer to not have to repeat it. Where’s Godric”, I ask.
He looks away for a moment before turning back and he barely opens his mouth when his phone starts ringing. He answers and of course speaks in a language I can’t understand.
When he finishes he turns back to me, “Let’s go”. He heads outside as soon as he says it.
“Where are we going”, I ask when I get outside.
He reaches towards me and picks me up again, “The airport”.
It’s hard to talk as he runs so fast to the airport. When we get there he goes to the ticket booth and soon we’re entering the vampire part of the airport. Eric immediately collects his travel coffin and we get to the gate for our flight.
“We’re going to be arriving after daylight. I already have transportation set to take us to The Hotel Carmilla”.
“Why are we going to Dallas”?
He turned to look at me and handed me my ticket, “Godric went back to Dallas about a month after you left”.
Apparently Eric had set up a private jet so we had to wait for a few hours in the airport for one to be available. When we arrive the sun is just beginning to rise and the trip to the Hotel is short. Once I’m in the room and Eric has moved from the travel coffin to the bedroom I sit on the couch wondering what I could have missed in the last year.
I’m suddenly nervous to see Godric. While to me it had only been a day since I had last been near him it had been so much longer for him. Would he still want to be with me after so long? He had only waited in Louisiana for a month before leaving. I close my eyes and lie down hoping to get rid of those thoughts.
I feel like I’ve barely been asleep when Eric is waking me up telling me to get ready to leave. I go get a shower and find clean clothes waiting for me. I pull on the jeans and shirt quickly and move out to find Eric waiting.
We leave the Hotel without speaking and get into a cab. Eric gives the driver the address and we’re on our way.
“Eric”, I say quietly my nervousness growing, “I’m sorry. We weren’t supposed to be gone that long and it didn’t really feel like it at all”.
He reached across the seat and grabbed my hand causing me to look at him, “I’m just glad you’re back”.
I’m able settle down slightly for the rest of the ride and the ride seems to draw out. My excitement to see Godric and nerves at how he would feel making me uneasy.
We finally pull up to a beautiful huge house and I immediately see Isabel standing by the door. We get out of the car and Isabel greets us.
“I’m so glad you’re back. I was starting to really worry about him. He’s refusing to eat and he won’t leave his room”, she says when she pulls me into a hug.
“Can I see him”, I ask her.
She nods and leads me into the house but I don’t notice much as we head down some stairs and down a hall way or two before stopping at one of the doors. She pushes it open and I see him just lying in the bed. If I didn’t know already that vampires explode when they die I would be sure he was already gone. Eric rushes into the room and kneels next to the bed and starts talking to him softly.
I move into the room and to the opposite side of the bed. I pick up his hand and hold it in my lap as I sit beside him.
He looks towards me but it’s like he doesn’t really see me and smiles but it’s a sad smile, “It should be soon my little one”.
“What should be soon”, I ask him.
He pulled my hand closer to him and pressed a kiss to my knuckles, “We’ll be together again soon”.
I turned to Isabel, “How long has it been since he’s eaten”?
“More than a month but I’m not sure if he stopped before that”.
I looked back at him but he had his eyes closed and he seemed asleep.
“Can you stop him if he tries to take too much”, I ask Eric. He nods, “Godric will you eat from me”?
“You were so filling”, he says but doesn’t move.
“Will you bite me Eric to break the skin”?
“Yes”, he says and moves to my side he picks up the wrist that Godric doesn’t have a hold of and raises it to his mouth.
“You should know that I’m a fairy before you bite me”, I tell him.
He pauses in raising my wrist but nods and drops his fangs. I look away and flinch slightly when I feel his fangs break the skin on my wrist. I feel Godric jerk slightly when Eric releases my arm and my blood hits the air. I move my arm before his face and he opens his eyes.
“Will you drink for me”, I ask him. He turns away from me though, “Please Godric at least a little”.
His blue eyes meet my own and he finally nods he grasps the arm that Eric bit and brings it to his mouth. His fangs drop and his eyes close as his lips suck lightly at the wound Eric had provided. I feel the growl he produces as he sucks harder and slides his fangs deeper into my wrist to get more blood. I start to feel lightheaded between the lust filling my body and the blood leaving my body.
Suddenly Eric comes forward and pulls Godric from my wrist. Godric probably would have fought harder if he had the strength but with so little blood he wasn’t strong enough for Eric.
“We’ve just got her back and you are not allowed to drain her”, Eric says getting Godric to stop fighting.
This time when Godric’s eyes meet mine they are much clearer, “Where have you been”?
“Well, I’m not entirely sure where I was but one of them mentioned it was a different realm”, I tell him.
“One of who? I’m going to need more information little one it’s been more than a year”, he says.
“I was with Sookie and the fairies. As it turns out I’m a fairy as well. It’s why I get the visions; it’s my gift like how Sookie can read minds”.
“So you were gone for so long learning to control your visions”, Eric asked.
“Not really, for me and Sookie we were only there for like ten to fifteen minutes. Her Grandfather was there who disappeared twenty years ago and he thought it had only been an hour”.
“Why would they come to you now”, Godric asked.
“The fairy queen was sealing off the realm and they wanted all the fairies there when they did”.
“Obviously you didn’t get stuck there so what happened”, Eric asked.
“There were some fairies who didn’t want to be stuck there and they were able to help Sookie and I get back along with her Grandfather but since he had eaten the fruit he died not long after being back here”, I tell them. “They were getting everyone to eat this glowing fruit and I’m guessing it had something in it to keep people trapped”.
“Will they be coming back for you”, Godric asked.
“I don’t think so the portal closed behind us but I can’t be sure”. I had noticed that Godric was already looking better but he would need more blood before he was back to normal.
“If you ever disappear like that again I am going to lock you in a room and never let you out”, Eric tells me before leaning in and ghosting a kiss across my forehead than leaving me and Godric alone.
“I’m sorry I didn’t know we would be gone that long. They just appeared and when she told me what I was I just wanted to know more about it”, I tell Godric. “Although, if anything does happen to me I don’t want you to try to kill yourself”.
“I did not wish to be here without you”, he says.
“That’s not a good reason. Would you want me to kill myself if something happened to you”.
“Absolutely not, you are too precious for that. You could find happiness again without me. I still don’t understand why you would want to waste your time with me”.
“I ask myself the same thing every day. Except I wonder why you would waste your time with a plain girl from a family that hates vampires”.
He sat up quickly pulling me towards him pressing his forehead against my own, “You should never think that; you are the most important part of my life and every moment with you is remarkable. I had already given up on life when you found me and you are the only reason I stay”, he tells me staring into my eyes.
“I love you Godric and I was ready to die with you on that roof never doubt for a moment that I would change anything about my life with you. I just don’t want you to give up on life because I’m not with you. You have so much to offer the world and it would be a complete loss if you would leave it”, I could feel the tears in my eyes from the moment he started speaking.
“I love you”, he whispered before leaning in and kissing me.
When he pulled back we were both smiling, “I am so happy to have you back”, he tells me pulling me as close as he can.
“I don’t plan to go anywhere for a long time”, I respond moving fully onto the bed and lying with him. He pulled me closer against him. While I could feel the lust coursing through my body I know he needs time to recover from going so long without blood. We spend the rest of the night lying together talking about the last year and getting some Tru Blood into Godric’s body. He was looking much better by the time the sun was rising and we settled in to sleep.
“Goodnight Godric”, I tell him pressing a kiss against the shoulder I was lying on.
“Goodnight little one”, he responded kissing the top of my head and running his fingers through my hair.
