*TIGHT ERIC HUGS* To: Maria Terese for 'hooking me up' with all the tasty Swedish language. Mmm! Delish!

Amelia added, "To the future Mrs. Eric Northman!"

"To my friends," Sookie finished, and everyone drowned their drink.

•Oo•Oo•Oo•
SHREVEPORT
•Oo•Oo•Oo•

When the sun finally set, Eric woke to the incredible sensation of feeling his length encased in Sookie's hot, wet mouth.

She sucked on his hard tip, caressing his jewels with her hand. She gave him one hard suck before pulling his dick out of her mouth and moving up on the bed to embrace him. "Good morning, or actually good evening, baby."

"Why do you insist on calling me an infant, Lover?" he asked, planting a kiss on her delicate nose.

"It's a term of endearment. Or would you rather I called you hunny bunny? I think I like that one better."

"The infant term it is, Lover," Eric said.

Sookie laughed. "Are you going to Fangtasia later on tonight?" she asked him.

"Yes, right after we watch this ditto ghost," Eric replied.

"Baby, the movie is called Ghost and they say the phrase, 'ditto'. The ghost isn't called ditto." Sookie chuckled. She stared at him and suddenly grew quiet.

"What is it my Lover?" Eric asked, kissing her and rolling her on top of him.

"I'm just looking at you and thinking how cute you are."

"Cute?" Eric chuckled.

"Yes, you are the cutest Viking vampire in all of Shreveport," Sookie innocently whispered.

"Darling, I am the only Viking vampire in Shreveport."

"And therefore, hands down, the cutest. No contest at all." Her comment brought a smile to his lips and they continued to softly kiss before Eric took her into his arms and they made love, slowly and passionately. As they both reached their climax and exchanged more endearments, Eric finally managed to pull himself off Sookie and got out of bed. "Come Lover, let's shower so we can watch the ditto, and I can take care of some things at Fangtasia."

"If you don't mind, baby, I don't want to take a shower just yet," Sookie whispered, squeezing her legs together, feeling lost without him being inside her.

Eric gave her a puzzled look.

"I'm not dirty or anything, baby, it's just that I . . . " She grabbed a pillow and put it over her head, embarrassed she was confessing her thoughts to him.

"Yes, darling?" Eric asked.

"I . . . love smelling you on me. I love your scent on my body," Sookie confessed, moving the pillow slightly to expose only one of her eyes, so she could see his reaction.

Eric moved in his vampire speed and was on her in a mere second, the pillow flying across the room. "You're driving me mad with lust, kvinna," he whispered.

After making love two more times, they finally showered and made it downstairs to watch Ghost.

•Oo•Oo•Oo•
FANGTASIA

"Master," Pam called out to Eric as he walked into the club. The employees motioned over to him as well and he made his way to his office.

"I'm surprised you found the time to grace us with your presence tonight," Pam muttered with a chuckle, then tensed her body when she smelled blood. "Is everything all right, Master?"

"Of course, Pam. What makes you say that?"

"I could swear I smell drops of blood on your face," Pam stated, looking at him intensely. Has he been crying? She was amazed she could even think the possibility.

"Oh, that. It's been awhile since I drove the jeep and I forgot to put the top up. An insidious insect lodged itself in my eye. It was quite the ordeal to dislodge it. Are there any invoices for me to sign?" Eric mentioned, quickly changing the subject.

"Some; I've left them on your desk. By the way, there were several things I had to contend with when I arrived at work," Pam started to say.

"Things?"

"Yes, we were down a register today, by the bar. Seems someone yanked the cord straight off the appliance. Any thoughts on who could have—"

"I tripped on the wire," he answered curtly. "Buy another register," he added, tiring of her comments. "Pam, Sookie is bringing your car in later tonight. She had to go get something to eat. Could you show her in when she arrives?" Eric asked, in a dismissive tone. He pulled his gaze back to the paperwork on his desk.

"Hmm," Pam muttered, hoping Sookie brought her car back in one piece. "There was also another issue with the security cameras I had to deal with today," Pam related, ignoring his request to leave.

"Another issue?" Eric asked, half interestedly, as he was paying more attention to the paperwork in front of him.

"Well, it seems the cameras were left on last night," Pam began.

"On, you say? Interesting," he mumbled, sorting the invoices from the paid receipts.

"Master, if I may ask you something. I need six nights off work next week."

"Time off?" Eric paused looking at his papers and stared at the vampiress.

"Yes, I wish to travel to Paris."

"Oh?" Eric tilted his head back down and engrossed himself in the paperwork, trying to hurry so he could spend some more time with Sookie. "Did you say Paris?" he mentioned weakly.

"Yes, I wish to travel to Paris. It is quite lovely this time of year," Pam stated.

Eric rummaged through his papers and looked up momentarily from what he was doing. "I'm sorry, Pam, but that is impossible. I need you here at Fangtasia. Sookie and I are going to travel as well, and I need you in charge of things."

"Yes, it seems you are enthralled with your new toy. Far be it from me to take your time away from her. After all, I am only here to mind your interests, isn't that it? Well, rest assured, Boss, I have trained a second to replace me. If there are any problems, they can contact me."

"No, Pam. Your timing could not have come at a worse time, and Sookie is not my toy. I expect you to measure your words around her."

Is he warning me? She raised her eyebrow at him. "And what words shall I limit to speaking when you send her back to Bon Temps in six months?"

"Why the hell would I do that?" Eric replied, about to lose his patience with his child.

"You specifically stated you wanted me to get you a sparsely decorated home for six months so you could be with her, or have you forgotten?" Will that be enough time to fuck her out of his system or will he tire of her sooner than that?

"About that—"

"Yes?"

"I have changed my mind. It is an excellent property, and I do not doubt its value will increase; buy it."

"Wow. That must truly be one hell of a . . . property . . . to make you change your mind in just one night," Pam teased.

"That is enough, Pam. As you can see I have much work to do, and I cannot spend all night talking to you. In regards to your trip, perhaps you can travel in a few months, but certainly not now. Do not worry, child, Paris will still be there. Now if you could you please wait for Sookie outside," Eric said, pointing to his door before going back to work.

"Do you give me your word on that, Master?"

"Of course," Eric replied, shuffling some papers around.

"Master, do you . . . pinkie swear?" Pam smiled.

Eric dropped what he was doing, and with a mortified look on his face, looked up to stare at Pam.

"I mean if you're lying, I might just make a complaint to the new Sheriff. I believe her name is Sheriff Sookie. I hear she has quite an eye for spotting troublemakers," Pam snickered deviously.

"Satans jävla helvetes fitta!" Eric cursed in his native tongue.

•Oo•Oo•Oo•Oo•Oo•

A few minutes later, Sookie came into Fangtasia, and Pam greeted her by the door, interrogating her over the state of her car. Before Sookie could answer, Eric was by Sookie's side.

"Lover, I have a surprise for you," Eric stated, flashing his trademark smirk.

"Oh, Eric! Another surprise? You're going to spoil me rotten," Sookie cooed innocently, completely ignoring Pam.

"I'm taking you on a six day tour of Paris and—"

"And? Oh my God, Eric! Paris alone is enough! There's more?" Sookie asked, excitedly.

"Wait 'till he tells you," Pam snickered, waiting for her master to continue.

Sookie looked at Pam with a worried smile, not sure what the vampiress meant.

"We are going on a six day tour of Paris . . . and Pam is coming with us," Eric slowly related, trying not to grit his teeth too much.

"Oh," Sookie replied, fearing she had overreacted for a business trip. "You mean it's a business trip?" Sookie asked nervously.

"No, Lover. Not at all."

"Oh, Eric," Sookie said excitedly. "Really then? Paris, France? Oh my God, Eric!" Sookie hugged Eric tightly, reaching up to kiss his chin.

"Come, Lover. I am almost done with my work." He took her hand and led her to his office, shutting the door behind him.

Sookie embraced him from behind as he locked the door, and he turned around to look at her beautiful face, pausing to note she had tears in her eyes.

"Did you nourish yourself, Lover?" Eric asked, wiping them away.

"Yes, I did. Thanks for asking," Sookie replied. "Eric?"

"Yes, Lover?"

"You're really taking me to Paris?"

"Yes, unless you would like to go somewhere else? I will take you anywhere you want to go."

"And Pam?"

"Pam is touring the country on her own. Do not concern yourself over her, darling."

"But who's going to take care of the club?"

"We have very reliable people in charge. Do not worry about anything but being by my side."

"Eric, I'm so happy. Thank you, baby," she whispered, kissing him passionately. Sookie pulled back from the kiss to look into his eyes. "I love you, Eric. I love you so much."

Eric met her intense gaze, then softly kissed her plump lips. "Ditto."
