Chapter 19
Sookie awoke to find Eric staring at her, a warm expression on his face.
“How long have you been up?” she asked, wiping the sleep from her eyes.
“Nearly an hour now, I found a stowaway in our bed. After I took her back to her room, I just wanted to watch you for a while.”
Sookie smiled. “That’s not at all weird.”
He smiled as well, kissing her lips sweetly. “I promise that I was a perfect gentleman. Seeing my daughter cuddled to your side, it was a gorgeous sight. I love how comfortable they are with you.”
“They’re great kids. I think that has a lot to do with their amazing father.”
“I do my best,” Eric replied, “and now I have to get my wonderful children off to school.” He kissed her one more time before hopping out of bed, quickly putting on some clothes, and feeling relieved that he kept his boxers on last night. “I have to be at the site early today. We’re working on that new building near the park, lots of structure to deal with. I’ll be glad when it’s all over.”
Sookie lay back in bed once he left the room, glad that she didn’t have to work until later that night. She had the whole day ahead of her, and knew just what she wanted to do.

Finding the construction site was easy, but Sookie wasn’t prepared for the numerous women standing around, mouths watering as they watched the half naked men work with their power tools, one of those men being her boyfriend. Sookie may have already seen him in all his glory, but this was definitely a sight to behold. Eric was wearing tight jeans, sweat dripping down his shirtless chest. His hair was pulled back in a ponytail, with a hard hat on his head. It was every woman’s ultimate fantasy, and Sookie still couldn’t believe that he was all hers. These women could look all they wanted, but she knew who he would be coming home to.

“This job is awesome, man. We’re looked upon like Greek Gods; I wouldn’t mind taking one or two of these ladies for a test drive. ”
Eric rolled his eyes, relieved that he didn’t have to worry about that anymore. Sookie was all the woman he needed; he didn’t much care for his coworker’s way of playing the field. Alcide was the love ‘em and leave ‘em type, but that life just wasn’t for him.
“I already have my eye set on the pretty little blonde in front.”
He glanced up, his eyes narrowing at the blonde Alcide was checking out. “Eyes off, Herveaux, that one is mine.”
“Oh, crap, that’s Sookie?” he wondered, giving a low whistle. “You’re a lucky bastard, Northman.”
Eric grinned. “You have no idea.”

* * * * *

“Hello, lover, what are you doing here?”
Sookie kissed him, feeling the stare of every woman burning into her back, but could really care less. “I just wanted to see where you worked, and if you were available to join me for lunch.”
He nodded. “I have my break in five minutes. I’ll meet you at the café down the street,” Eric said, kissing her once again, and tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “I’m glad you’re here.”
Sookie knew he meant more than just here at the construction site, but she only smiled, and then headed in the other direction, back through the crowd of horny women.
“That is one lucky bitch.”
She heard a voice say, a bigger smile forming on her face. It didn’t get much better than this.

* * * * *

“So, how are things going? I’m glad you finally took time out of your busy schedule to call me. You’re not forgetting your friends already, are you?”
Sookie felt shame go through her, knowing that Amelia was only teasing, but still felt bad for not contacting her sooner. “I’m sorry, Ames, it’s just been so hectic here. With moving in, and starting my new job, I don’t seem to have much time to myself. Not that I regret coming here, it’s been really great so far.”
“I’m happy for you, Sook, don’t worry about it. I’ve been pretty busy, too. Not like I’ve been waiting around the phone for you to call,” Amelia told her. “Jason and Crystal got into a fight; he found her screwing some other guy in their bed. From what I heard, he didn’t even care; he was just worried about her hurting the baby. Just when you think that man isn’t capable of change, he actually puts the fetus first.”
Sookie rolled her eyes. “Honestly, if it wasn’t for her being pregnant, I would have told Jason to leave her long ago. She’s nothing but trash, and I’m not usually one to speak ill of people, but you know it’s true. I don’t see how they’re going to deal with a baby. I feel for this child, and she’s not even born yet.”
Amelia agreed. “I wish her luck having them for parents. That baby is gonna need you in her life.”
She sighed. “I know, and I wish I could be there for her, but she’s Jason’s responsibility. You’ll keep a close eye on him, right? Let me know if anything goes wrong? I can’t help but worry about him.”
“No problem, I have spies everywhere. If something happens, you’ll be the first to know. Now, tell me more about Pam. Eric is pretty determined that we would hit it off. Is she a hot piece of ass?”
Sookie laughed, it was nice talking with her friend again.

Two more weeks went by and it was time for Olivia’s thirteenth birthday, a day Eric was truly dreading.
“Come on, it won’t be so terrible to have a teenager in the house. She’s always seemed much older, anyway.”
Eric glowered at her. “That doesn’t make me feel any better. I saw that boy she’s so crazy about. He brought her flowers, and kissed her cheek. My princess is still just a baby; she should be getting dolls for presents. Not flowers, and certainly not a boyfriend. Where did I go wrong?”
Sookie patted him on the back. “Olivia’s growing up, Eric, that’s what she’s been trying to tell you. I know you’ll always think of her as your little girl, but that’s just not the case anymore. It’ll be okay, you’ll see that it’s not so bad.”
He nodded, knowing that she was right. “Can we lock Emma up until she’s thirty? I don’t think I can go through this a second time.”
“I think that can be arranged.”
Eric smiled, wrapping his arms around her. She always knew just how to make him feel better. “I love you, Sookie Stackhouse.”
She touched her lips to his. “And I love you, Mr. Northman.”
They turned to see the kids playing pin the tail on the donkey, Olivia was laughing as Jimmy spun her around.
At least it was a children’s game that he was familiar with, if they were playing spin the bottle, Eric would have really had that stroke.
