I am continuing my story after the point of the attack, when Godric had decided to go to the roof to meet the sun,
Sookie IS a virgin, so she hasn't lost her virginity yet.
if you have any questions, just review and I will answer you :)
enjoy!
As Sookie stood dead silent watching Eric slowly follow Godric, her heart fractured in many places, they all knew what he wanted to do, what he was determined to do…and of course Eric as his child was torn, Sookie had never seen his face so low, so…affected by anything. She was certain he could feel, he felt emotion, underneath that hard exterior, that hard shell he cocooned himself in today since the first time she met Eric, she wanted to help in any way possible so she was determined to follow them up to try to convince Godric of the mistake he would be making by leaving Eric alone.
"Sookie?" Bill called out to her before she shook her head looking up at him,
"Bill, I need to go help Eric, convince Godric this isn't right" her voice was frantic, consumed with worry,
"Sookie" she heard him sigh, "this does not concern us, it is between Eric and Godric, you have no right to interfere between a maker and his child" Sookie couldn't believe just how selfish he was being,
"How dare you Bill Compton! Eric saved me if you forgot about that, he shielded me from the attack, from those bullets, I could have died if it wasn't for him, and as for Godric, he is probably, no he is the most caring, forgiving and thoughtful guy I have ever met, he doesn't deserve to have his life ended this way, even if he is deciding that, I will not stand here and let him die upstairs alone, and as for Eric yes, maybe he is an asshole most of the time, but he doesn't deserve to grieve alone" Sookie ranted prodding Bill's chest with her index finger,
"Sookie he made you suck the blood out of his chest and neck, he is bound to you now" at this point he was practically hissing through his clenched teeth,
"I don't care about that anymore Bill, I forgive him okay? It was my fault anyway, I know just how manipulative he is, but that doesn't change the fact that I am going up there to try to convince Godric to live, now if I were you I'd go sleep because the sun will be rising soon" and with that last sentence Sookie turned around, making a run through the hallway…
"Godric you cannot do this please, please" Eric begged his maker as they stood, after the silence they both shared together listening to Sookie argue with Bill while they couldn't bring themselves to talk.
"ingen Godric du kan inte döda dig själv. Jag kommer inte att tillåta det" (Godric no you can not kill yourself, I will not allow it). Watching his maker Eric fell to his knees, begging and pleading to him in Swedish over and over as Godric stood teary eyed, Eric's own watering, as bloody tears slowly trailed down their cheeks,
"My child, I have been on this Earth for more than 2,000 years, it is my time to go" Godric whispered, receiving a deadly glare from Eric,
"no, I will allow no such thing, please Godric, let us go downstairs, we need to talk about this, this isn't the right thing to do, you cannot just leave me here"
"but Eric, I have lived, I have seen, I have accomplished all I set out to do, you…you are my child Eric, and I couldn't be happier, that day I changed you I was overcome with such happiness, I am proud to call you my child." Godric turned to see Sookie who stood there quietly before walking over, her legs were shaky and her heart beat was uneven and fast,
"I will not let you die alone,"
"yes you will" Sookie realized that from the tone of his voice it was a command rather than a statement, Eric's face dropped and he stood up shaking his head in disbelief, he couldn't lose his maker, he couldn't just give up on life, but he was determined.
"Eric…" Sookie's voice was quiet, yet shaky; Eric's sky blue hues met her own ice blue ones,
"I will look after him, do not worry" she whispered holding her hand out, placing it gently over his, causing him to flinch at the sudden contact of her skin on his, but he could feel through those faint few drops of blood just how honest and sincere she was being, she cared, he could feel it, and he only nodded before reluctantly pulling his hand from hers,
"Jag älskar dig Godric" Eric turned to face his maker before turning his back to walk away,
"Father, brother, son" Godric murmured quietly his eyes not once leaving Eric, and as Sookie turned she noticed he was gone within seconds,
"Godric, please don't do this" Sookie pleaded to him; her eyes were beginning to water, "please, just yo-you can't leave Eric, he'll be so distraught, please Godric see sense in this, you can't just leave" tears were now coaxing her cheeks in their salty wetness, "Godric, just give it some more time, you will destroy Eric, he was begging you not to, he is your child, how could you just leave him all alone, with all that grief, the burden, the emptiness" Sookie shook her head unable to fathom why he would want to die.
"Sookie" grimacing he took a step towards her, his hand lifting her face up to his, "I see no reason to live anymore, I've seen it all, I've done everything I've wanted, it is my time to go, you…you're crying, a human crying over me, a vampire, because I want to die, I cannot understand this" bewildered he watched her, while she quietly contemplated in her mind what to say,
"Godric, Eric needs you, you've seen exactly how he is, please do not leave him here, without you he will become so much more bitter, he'll hate life, just stay a little while longer, let me convince you your life is worth living…" her eyes met the sky before wiping her cheeks, "please, Godric please, just for a while, the sun rises every day, this isn't right, talk to Eric, just wait a couple days, maybe you'll have a change of mind, he needs you Godric, he loves you, he looks up to you" Sookie sighed deeply, unsure of what else to say. She had only seen them around each other a few times, but from those brief moments she could see the true Eric, the Eric who had a softer side, a caring side when it came to his maker.
Taking Godric's hand in hers she smiled tugging at him,
"I don't understand why you want to leave exactly, but your life is too precious, it is too important, every life on this Earth is, whether it be small or big, whether the person, the animal the plants have a small or larger meaning in life, and you Godric, you are an amazing person, I cannot just stand idly by and watch you give up your life for whatever reason you may, not this way…I refuse to. Give it a while longer, you may change your mind, think about Eric, think about just how much he needs you in his life, you're his maker, the only person he has ever let himself love, and open up to…" Godric's face was amused by her last sentence,
"oh Sookie, I am not the one he loves…" he looked into her eyes, receiving a gasp from her,
"he doesn't love me, he just he wants me to be added to that list of his" she retaliated back looking down at the floor,
"oh but Sookie, he is very stubborn, emotion to Eric is weakness, he cannot show himself as weak as he believes, that is partially my fault" he smirked, but it wasn't full of joy or life,
"Godric do not say that, Eric is just Eric"
"yes but Eric is Eric because of me, and he does love you, or he wouldn't have risked his life to save yours, he wouldn't have offered to save myself and you for his death, he didn't need to include you, but he did, you are different Sookie I can tell, and so can he, but he has never felt this way, I see it when I talk to him, just give him that time to prove to you he will protect you and love you" Godric's words rang in her mind over and over like a song on repeat,
"but your world, your world doesn't love as he has told me, he has told me he is incapable of love, he wants me as his servant, to feed and to fuck, as a pet Godric, I cannot be that" she whispered before tugging at his hand once more not wanting to continue their conversation right not, her main priority was to get him out of the sun which was rising.
"please?" pleading quietly, he sighed softly, contemplating what she had said, it was true apart of him couldn't leave Eric, that was the main reason, but he felt like his purpose was no longer there.
"On one condition" Sookie's eyes lit up excitedly nodding,
"anything Godric"
"will you gjve Eric a chance?" her eyebrows furrowed down in confusion, "give him a chance to show you how caring he can be?" she was honestly taken aback with his straight forward honesty,
"I-I'm with Bill Godric" she whispered gazing down at the floor,
"I have some things to tell you about Bill but not here and not now, tomorrow, come on, as I promised you we'll go down, but just promise me you will think about it after I've told you what is needed to be said" she could only nod, eager to get him out of the sunlight, and with that he picked her up bridal style before darting down the stairs, in seconds they stood in front of Eric's bedroom door, placing her fingers over her lips she mimed the words 'wait here' before knocking and entering into his room.
"Eric?" Sookie's voice filled his mind; he was sat on the edge of the bed, without a shirt on, just a pair of boxers, and hunched over. Listening closely she didn't hear him respond, but heard the soft splatter of something liquid hitting something hard, all she assumed was he was still crying, and her heart broke into many pieces. Of course Eric felt this in Sookie, closing his eyes tightly before he balled his hands up besides him, for the first time in centuries unsure of what to do. Sookie slowly kept walking towards him, she kneeled down lifting his face with her finger, to see his stained cheeks, covered in his bloody tears which ran down to his abdomen,
"Oh Eric, please don't cry there is no reason to" he shot a deadly glare up at Sookie who fell back onto her ass shocked at the sudden movement,
"NO REASON?" he roared infuriated that she could see Godric as no reason,
"Eric, look by the door" her voice was quiet, and tears had now spilled from her eyes, before she moved back against the wall, bringing her knees up to her chest whilst she watched him turn to the door, his eyes wide in shock and it only took Sookie to blink once before she saw Eric besides Godric.
He was smiling, a true smile, his lips were curved up into that crooked smile he shot Sookie many times before,
"you-you stayed" Eric was shocked yet thrilled, Godric simply nodded returning the smile,
"yes Eric, I have for now…thank Miss Stackhouse" he whispered, glancing over at her, and with that Eric nodded a grin spreading across his lips, making his way to Sookie very slowly he held his hand out for her, graciously she took it before he pulled her to his chest, and she could have swore her heart skipped a beat, to her surprise she heard him chuckle before he let his lips trail delicately over her ear,
"thank you Sookie, I am forever in debt to you" he whispered almost seductively, of course his thank you had a deeper meaning, and Sookie understood exactly what he was referring to, receiving a shudder from her, gulping she smiled, trying to pull away but unable to as he kept his deadly iron grip on her,
"Eric, I need to get back to Bill, he'll be worrying" she whispered pressing her palms against his bare chest, desperately trying to pry herself out of his arms…
It wouldn't take a genius to notice that Sookie was attracted to Eric and of course Eric felt the lust need and want in her, but played upon them…he wanted to feed off her, to make her his pet.
"Come on Eric let Sookie get back to her bedroom, we have many things to discuss before we rest" Godric was besides Eric now and his arms dropped unhappily back to his sides. Her eyes fell down to his boxers and she heard the two men chuckle, her cheeks blazing a bright crimson before turning her gaze back to Eric's face and then Godric,
"Sookie, will you meet us here? Could you be back at 6.55pm? I need to continue what we were discussing, alright?" Eric's eyes flickered to Godric,
"about?"
"in due time my child, I will tell you when we are alone" Godric replied holding his hand out which Sookie accepted, "let me escort you to your bedroom and Eric…dinner please" Godric smiled slyly before Eric smirked nodding,
"maybe Sookie will allow us to feast on her?" he cut in, which Sookie growled at pulling away from Godric's hold to glare at Eric,
"I am not a fang-banger like those other girls" she shouted walking right up into his face, Godric standing by before he crossed his arms across his chest watching Sookie.
Leave it to Sookie to stand up to a 1,000 year old vampire, not to mention a sheriff, someone like Eric Godric chuckled inwardly taking a step back to lean against the wall.
"Sookie…you are a blood bag do not forget" Eric replied calmly, keeping his eyes on hers and that was all it took for her to snap, her palm came sliding against his cheek, a loud clap making sound.
Oh Sookie you have so much to learn Eric thought to himself rather amused,
Well she definitely has guts, and seeing as Eric hasn't even attacked her she must really be something special to him Godric couldn't help but wonder what his child saw in her, of course she was extremely beautiful, smelt delicious more so than any human he'd come across in all of his 2,000 years, still a virgin, polite, well mannered, and feisty when needed.
"Sookie, apologize" he whispered through his clenched teeth,
"NO I will do no such thing, I am not a blood bag, I'm a human with feelings and not just a meal and a fuck for you" she added heatedly before turning away from his gaze, "I will be going, I'm glad you decided to stay Godric" Sookie smiled briefly. Eric would have grabbed her, and most likely fed on her but he used every ounce of his willpower not to, he could feel that he had hurt Sookie terribly so he kept his mouth shut, wondering why on earth he would even care.
"I will see you tomorrow Sookie, have a pleasant day" he chimed in before stepping aside to open the door and close it behind her; "Eric, you've hurt her" Godric spoke, tapping his fingertips lightly against the door.
"I know Godric" was all Eric replied before sinking back down onto the bed, gazing down at the hand which Sookie had held earlier up on the roof.
