OOC: Takes place after THIS THREAD.Sookie had showered a dozen times before she went back to see Bill, and then they'd had some sort of fight. He must have figured it all out, she guessed, because he was doing something desperate.
He wanted her to marry him.
As she ran to the bathroom to try and figure out what the heck she was going to do about it, she calmed down. What girl would marry Bill right after a fight? Right after the troubles they'd had in town? It was bad timing, plus to top it all off, she was still thinking of Eric.
When she came out of the bathroom, Bill was gone.
Sookie called Eric right away after she got back home. "Please? He's not here, I'm alone and I don't wanna be, and... I just need you here." God, she sounded pathetic. "Never mind. You don't have to be here." She was giving Eric an out, just in case.
All she really wanted was someone to tell her that Bill had been wrong, that she was still sane, that things would be fine. She'd just figured on Eric being the likely choice considering the amount of sex they'd had recently.
