The Date

In this time

In this moment

We could crash together

I come alive

In slow motion

Make it lost forever

I come alive

Two Weeks Later

I woke up to realize Sookie was still at work. I was missing my Sookie and waiting for her to come home, when I suddenly realized that we haven’t even been on a date yet and I had tried to have sex with her a few weeks ago. The next night, I was afraid it was going to be awkward. But thankfully it wasn’t. That’s what people do with the right person, right? The problem was what could be good date?

It was so weird that she wasn’t here after I woke up. Ever since Sookie found me, I’ve been with her nonstop. The only time, when I wasn’t with her was when I was sleeping. So this… her not being here just felt wrong.

Luckily for me… and Sookie that she told me that night after she told me about her day, that I shouldn’t panic if she wasn’t home when I woke up. Because I would’ve panicked… big time if I didn’t know that she might be at work. When Sookie finally came home, I was waiting for her at the door.

“How are you?” I asked her, smiling.

“I’m… good and you?” she answered and I kissed her.

“I missed you,” I admitted and if I wasn’t a vampire, I would’ve blushed.

“I missed you too,” she told me smiling and I took a hold of her hand.

“Good,” I said and kissed her hand “Now go change.”                                                                                   

“Change?” she wondered.

“Your clothes.” Wasn’t that obvious?

“Why do I need to change?” she asked me, looking down at herself.

“And where did you get that…? “She asked, pointing at my outfit. I was wearing all blue (except my shirt).

“Oh this?” I asked, touching the jacket of my tuxedo.

“Yes, that.” She said sarcastically, making me smile.

“I asked Pam for something good for our date and then she started explaining about someone named Dear Abby, but I wasn’t really listening to her…Why are you looking at me like that?” I’ve become pretty close with her and Eric. Sookie is still a little afraid of them, but I know she tries, for me.

“You said our date. What date?”

“The one we are having after you change your clothes?” I asked trailing off “Didn’t I say all this already?”

“No. You just told me to change,” she said.

“Then go. You don’t have much time, your food is almost done,” I informed her.

“My… food?”

“Yes. Your food. Now go,” I told her and she went to change her clothes.

I just finished putting little white table together to her backyard, when I saw her. She was wearing red sleeveless, mid-length dress. She had her hair in a side braid. Moonlight made her hair look like sunshine. I so wish that someday I would see her in sunlight, but I know that’s not possible.

It really sucks to be a vampire sometimes. I can’t take her on a picnic or go swimming with her in the daytime. I can’t even see her, if I didn’t wish to burn.

I know that once upon a time, I met the sun and died. But for now I had no such desire. I couldn’t even think about it. I couldn’t do that now that I had Sookie. Would things be different if I wouldn’t have met Sookie? Who knows?

”WOW,” she told me, when she was in front of me and looking at the table. I had a white tablecloth and a candle on it.

“My words exactly,” I told her as I took her in. How can she always be so beautiful? She looked at me and noticed that I was talking about her and she blushed. I pulled her chair out for her and she sat down. I really liked to see her blush. It’s also nice to know that I’m not only one affected.

“I will get your food… but I’m warning you that I’m not the best cook so… If you don’t like it you don’t have to eat it… we could just order pizza or—or—“I started explaining after I kissed her nose.

“Just get my food,” she told me laughing. So I got her, her mac and cheese (which I made her). I really did and no one helped me. Except the cook book I found in the house.

“You made me mac and cheese?” she asked me smiling widely.

“I did,” I admitted as she started eating. I was drinking my true blood until I heard moaning.

“Sookie?” I asked her confused.

“Yes, Godric?” she asked me after swallowing her food.

“Are you Ok?” I asked her, touching her cheek with my right hand.

“I’m fine,” she said confused.

“You were moaning,” I said.

“Awkward,” she whispered to herself.

“It’s just really good!” she whispered at me, smiling softly.

“When I was little, this was my favorite food,” she admitted to me.

“So I’m not really a failure at cooking?” I joked and she laughed.

“Not at all,” she said, still smiling. “Which is weird, right?”

“How so, min älskling?”

“Because you know… you don’t eat and I don’t think there was mac and cheese, when you were still alive.”

“Sorry,” she said, when she noticed that what she said, made me sad. It’s sad that I don’t know what it was like to be human. I don’t even remember people I loved back then. And most sad part was that, I knew that everyone in my human life were dead.

“It’s OK,” I told her and looked into her eyes. “You’re so beautiful that your beauty could blind a man.”

N/A: Sorry I’ve been busy and I’ve no idea where we are heading with this fic. I made a tiny time skip (2 weeks) so thing could happen sooner. I suck at these date things but I wanted to try… What do you think?
