IT WAS AS IF SHE HAD NEVER LEFT IN THE FIRST PLACE, LOOKING EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE DAY SHE HAD DISAPPEARED. Well, according to Lafayette right before he and Jesus took their leave for the evening. Not thirteen minutes later, Jason Stackhouse had burst through the door and into the home in his work uniform.
Dakota hadn't even had time to speak with her cousin as she galavanted through the home, in awe of the renovations. Sookie was babbling on about how on earth she had managed to do this within a day. It was as if she didn't even know how long gone she had been.
The blonde watched as Jason embraced his sister, looking at her in disbelief as he squeezed her close, scared she would vanish into thin air.
"Jason, why are you dressed like a cop?"
"Jesus Christ," he gaped. "we thought you were dead! We've been lookin' everywhere for you. We figured a vampire must have did it. Bill, or maybe that crazy tall one."
Dakota held back a grin, shaking her head in amusement knowing fully well Eric had nothing to do with her disappearance. The vampire had been too busy forcing blood down her throat to even think about kidnapping the fairy. Besides, he couldn't care less what would have happened to her cousin.
"Hold on, hold on." Sookie frowned, taking a step back. "Stop a second. What is today's date?"
"Today is October twenty-first." Dakota commented, sharing a look with Jason as they stood in the living room. The blonde had tried to tell Sookie moments before but she had been too busy taking in the home to even hear her.
"I've been gone two weeks?" she wondered.
"No, Sook." Jason furrowed his brows. "You've been gone twelve and a half months."
"That's not funny." she stated, glancing around the room at her family.
"He's right, Sook." Dakota muttered, chewing her bottom lip. "You disappeared twelve and a half months ago. We've looked everywhere for you, but you were gone."
"We put up flyers." added Jason. "We called TV stations, we did everything we could think of. We even made up a website. But after you were gone so long ..."
Sookie rubbed her palm over her face and sat down on the couch with a sigh. "I swear it felt like ten, fifteen minutes at the most! The place that I went, time just works differently."
"Where did you go?" asked Dakota, curious.
The blonde fell silent for a moment, knowing how crazy it was going to sound when she'd have to say it out loud. The woman didn't know if her cousin knew they were fairies, she guessed Eric would have told her but she couldn't be sure.
