cris had left the house as soon the other vampires showed up, not wanting to deal with the blonde man during the meeting.

the large group had gathered around the table, eric next to hadley who had slight bruises appearing on her neck which made him feel very guilty. the vampires had been telling the two what information they had gathered since the last meeting, which was only a few suspects.

"so if i'm hearing this correctly," eric glanced at hadley who looked absolutely hopeless "you have found nothing!" he slapped his hand on the table and the woman next to him flinched.

"eric we are trying." a brunette vampire said, her eyes flicking towards hadley's broken appearance.

"you're not trying hard enough!" he screamed "my maker is missing and it seems like i'm the only one in this room that actually gives a damn."

hadley had heard enough and stood up, looking at eric with an emotionless face. "there are tru bloods in the living room, if anyone needs me i will be on the roof." she then walked out of the room and towards the staircase leading towards the roof, her small flip phone already pulled out with her sisters number dialed.

the vampires stared at eric as he sat in his chair, each one wanted to go after the woman that had been working so hard to try and find her mate but decided to stay in their seats. the man rubbed his hands against his face and slammed them against the table before walking out of the room and after hadley, using his vampire speed to do so.

when he found the woman on the roof she was finishing up the phone call with her sister, "i just feel so stupid cris, like i don't actually know him. you're right, yeah i know but- okay i love you too, bye."

she pulled her phone close to her and leaned her head against her knees, "little sis coming home soon?" hadley jumped, looking over at the man with wide eyes as he walked towards her. "sorry."

they sat in silence for a while, each one fighting their own battles. "i am trying you know?" eric looked over at her, "i have been trying every single thing i can think of but nothing has seemed to work, i was in vamp clubs almost every weekend interrogating people. i almost died three times, had to tell them i was the sheriff's to get away."

eric didn't realize how hard this had actually hit the woman, he finally stopped to notice her appearance. her long hair was dull and in tangles, her finger nails had been chewed down to ugly stubs that had chipped red nail polish on them. there was a scar on her left eyebrow that was bare, he wanted to ask about it but stayed silent while she spoke.

"i know to you it seems like just some puny relationship that could never compete with yours, but i love godric. the night we met i instantly fell in love with him and the way he was, it didn't matter if he was a vampire it only mattered that we were together you know?" the man nodded at her and she took a shaky breath.

"i love him eric, and i cannot lose him. promise me that we'll find him, please."

"i promise."
