A New Love

I am so sick of Sookie taking Bill for granted.... so this is my story

Bill and Sookie are no longer together. She left him for Eric and this is Bill's sweet revenge.

Chapter 1

The Task

3rdPOV

Eric was laying across the desk in his office of Fangtasia waiting for his "guest"

"He's Here." mumbled Eric, he could smell Bill at the front door. Bill walked through the door solemnly.

"Why did you call me here 'sheriff'," said Bill sarcastically refusing to say Eric's name, "I promised to leave Sookie alone. It is cruel to torture me."

"You are not here because of Sookie. I win. We have established that." replied Eric still sprawled lazily across the desk.

"Then why?!. Why am I here! What more do you want from me! I would kill you were you not my sheriff." interjected Bill Compton. "You have taken away my -"

"Alright. Shut up! The Queen has a task for you" began Eric. " Despite what you have done to try and hide your gift, I know what you can do. You can feel the innocence of

every creature, that's probably why you can't kill as easily as the others. Now, I tried to explain to my Queen that you are not the man... for this job." said Eric stressing the

word 'man' just to piss him off. Bill growled lowly. "But, she insisted; she explained that the Opal is the ultimate innocence . She is the only one left of her kind and has not

been awakened for quite sometime."

"Why is the Queen looking for the Opal? Does the king know about this! This is blasphemy!" cried Bill.

"You live in the territory of the Queen, which means your loyalty is to THE QUEEN!" shouted Eric hotly sitting up from his desk so swiftly that pages of "Playboy" magazine

and some Fangtasia napkins darted to the floor. "It would not be in your best interest to defy her," calming from his outburst " You wouldn't want to be punished.... Would

you? Hmmm..... Isn't Sookie's cousin under the Queen's care?" Eric said with little emotion. " If she were to learn of your disloyalty..." trailed Eric slipping off of the desk and

looking Bill in th eye for the first time in about a month. Bill looked drained, not of blood obviously, but everything else. There was a tickle of desperation behind his eyes.

For a moment Eric began to feel guilty for 'stealing' Sookie as Bill would say. It was hard enough being immortal, without having to spend it alone. Alone, it was damn near

impossible. But that is why Eric needed to shake his remorse. He needed Sookie just as much as Bill did. Bill will find something again. Eric was sure of it.

"Just give me my task." said Bill pulling Eric out of his internal battle.

"Patience is a virtue my dear Mr. Compton," said Eric twisting his smile smugly. "You are to travel to the birth land and search for The Opal (a/n I know right! what a gay

name but its my birthstone, and I couldn't come up with a good name. Cut me some slack.) "Romania (bahahahahaha. Of course!) is still a dangerous place for Vamps. They

never grew out of their 'old fears' . Damn humans and their Dracula. Bram Stoker is one sick fuck, writing an 'autobiography' about his Vampire ways. The king almost

incinerated the poor bastard after reading it. Anyway, you will search the cemeteries and the house of the Vasilescu's. It will be a long journey, so move swiftly. Be very

careful where you rest, as I said before..... The Romainians are paranoid fuckers. If you find her you will be rewarded greatly. I will not forget--"

Eric was cut off by a human girl that smelled of Vanilla. (It's funny because I hate the smell of Vanilla! GAG!)

"Sookie." choked Bill Compton immobilated by the sight of his lost love.

"Bill.... Um... How are you?... Eric.... Um... What's up?" in other words What the hell is he doing here and why didn't you tell me!

"Do not worry, I was just leaving," said Bill irritabley. This was Eric's doing. "I understand my task, I will take my leave tomorrow night."

"Thank You." Eric said coldly not looking at either of the two. Bill walked around Sookie without so much as a glance and left through the open door.

"Bill! Wait!" Sookie cried, "Where are you going?" grabbing Bill by the hand only for him to snatch it away.

"That is no longer any of your concern now is, my dear?" he said turning his head to glare at her. As quickly as the anger filled Bill was it gone when Sookie's eyes filled with

tears.

"I'm sorry," said Bill with his sexy accent. "That was very ungentlemanly of me. I apologize. I just think it would be better for both of us if you kept your interests to Eric and

not me." A flash of anger and sadness passed Sookie's face. "It was nice seeing you again." With that, he left Fangtasia, Sookie and Eric behind, ready to begin his task.

So what do you guys think. Please review and tell me how you feel.
