Chapter 25
“This place is so cozy,” Amelia said as she entered the bedroom, taking a look around, and then joining Sookie on the bed. “I can really see how you don’t regret moving here now. I might decide that a change in scenery is just what I need.”
Sookie graced her friend with a smile. “It’s good to see you, Ames. You didn’t drive Eric crazy in the car, did you?”
She placed a mocking hand over her heart. “I would never.”
Eric came in then, carrying Amelia’s suitcase. “She’s a delight,” he told them, somewhat sarcastically. “I hope the guest room is to your liking.”
Amelia waved her hand in the air. “It’s perfect, now, where is this sister of yours that I’ve been hearing so much about?”

Sookie wouldn’t exactly call it love at first sight, but Eric was right when he said Pam and Amelia would hit it off. They were like one person, and she started to feel uncomfortable with the heated looks they kept sending to each other. It was a good thing the girls were at a sleepover for the night, with all the eye fucking going on in this house. It was only a matter of time until that turned into real fucking.
“It’s getting late; we should go to bed now.”
Eric nodded, helping Sookie up off the couch and over to their room. “Are you staying tonight, Pam?”
The blonde licked her lips, gazing hungrily at the brunette beside her. “I think that’s a safe bet. I’ve had a bit too much to drink, it would be best if I didn’t drive home.”
Eric rolled his eyes, knowing she had way more than that in the past and still managed to drive without a problem. “Fine, just try and keep it down. Sookie needs her rest.”
Amelia waved to her friend, following Pam into the guest room, the door slowly closing behind them.
Sookie turned to Eric. “They are so not going to be quiet.”
He knew that all too well, remembering a time when Pam was a teenager and thought she had the house to herself. That was something he never cared to witness again.

“What do you think about Esther?”
Eric scrunched up his nose in disgust. “May I veto that one, lover? It doesn’t sound like a proper name for our little girl.”
She agreed. “Okay, but we should be discussing boy names, too. You might not be having another daughter.”
“I guess I never thought about that. With Felicia, we always wanted to be surprised with the sex of our baby, but each time, I just knew it would be a girl. I need to speak with you about something. I didn’t feel right bringing it up in front of Pam and Amelia.”
Sookie gave him her full attention, waiting for him to continue.
Eric took in a deep breath and did just that. “I was searching through the desk drawer, and I came across your video tape. I know I had no right to look at it, but I was curious. It broke my heart, Sookie.”
She felt tears in her eyes, knowing that she should have found a better hiding place. “I’m sorry, but I can’t regret doing it. Yes, there is a big chance this labor could be a complete success, but there’s also a chance that it might not be. If something did happen, I wanted to leave a piece of me behind for the baby. I wanted her to know me.”
“And she will, my love. You will be here for her always and no matter what happens, she will have me to tell her how amazing her mother is, but I do not think it will come to that. You have given me your faith, and I know in my heart that everything will work out. I believe that.”
Sookie kissed him, resting her head against his chest, and feeling content when he wrapped his strong arms around her. “You know, we keep calling the baby a she. If it doesn’t end up being a girl, that could scar him for life.”
He chuckled. “As much as it would be nice to have a son, I have a strong feeling that I might be getting another daughter. I was right in the past, after all.” Eric pressed his lips to her forehead, whispering softly in her ear. “Jag älskar dig.”
She smiled, snuggling up against him. It wasn’t the first time he spoke Swedish to her, but she never got tired of hearing it. “I love you, too.”

Eric tried not to laugh when Amelia came out of the guest room, hair all over the place, and her make up from the night before rightfully smudged.
“I was beginning to worry that Pamela wouldn’t leave you alive. Her bark is worse than her bite; I suppose she left earlier this morning.”
Amelia nodded, moving over to the coffee machine. “I need a serious caffeine fix. Honestly, that sister of yours is an animal.”
He held his hands up. “I really don’t need the details. I’m just glad you two got along so well.”
“Yeah, she’s really cool. I may have another reason to visit more often now,” she said with a wink, filling up a mug and taking a long sip of the hot liquid.
Eric grinned. “I have to go pick up the girls. Sookie is still sleeping.”
“Got it, boss, I’ll look after her. You take all the time you need, she’s in good hands.”
“Why does that worry me?” he claimed, only partly kidding.
Amelia rolled her eyes. “You’re just lucky I’m so tired, we didn’t sleep much last night. I hope you two didn’t hear us.”
He shook his head. “Fortunately, the walls are pretty thick here. We were busy discussing baby names. Do you have any preferences?”
Her eyes lit up. “Oh, how about Ruthie? Don’t you think that’s adorable?”
Eric let out a sigh. “I see you and Sookie have been talking. We will just leave that in the maybe pile. I should be back in less than an hour.”
Amelia waved as he walked out the door, finishing her coffee and wondering what she could do to kill some time, but a noise from the bedroom caught her attention. She saw that Sookie was awake, an expression of fear on her face.
“Where’s Eric?” she wondered in a panic.
“He left to get the kids. What’s wrong?”
Sookie felt another sharp pain surge through her. “I think it’s time, my water just broke.”
Her eyes widened as she rushed to Sookie’s side. “Shit, it’s still a few weeks early.”
“The baby doesn’t care about that. She wants out now.”
“Okay, you already have a bag packed, right? I’ll call an ambulance; luckily the hospital isn’t too far away. Just don’t have the baby here,” Amelia claimed, rubbing Sookie’s back.
She nodded. “I’ll try, but I can’t make any promises.”
Amelia hurried over to the phone, assuring Sookie that the paramedics would be there in about ten minutes, and then making a call to Eric. He didn’t answer, but she left him a voicemail to tell him to meet them at the hospital. Amelia sat by the distraught woman, holding her hand until help arrived, and praying to anyone who would listen that her friend make it through this.
