"You bought Sookie's house?" I asked.

"Yes," Eric said.

"And you didn't think to tell me about it?"

"It's not that important."

"Actually it kinda is."

"Why are you here?" Lily asked.

"I bought the house therefore I own you."

"You bought the house we live in you didn't buy us," Lily said.

"What is going on?" Sookie asked running down the stairs.

"I just discovered I seriously over paid for this house," Eric said.

"You bought my house?" Sookie asked.

"Yes. We've gone over this. Well there are places I need to be. I'll talk to you girls soon."

He left.

"I am so sorry!" I said.

"It's not your fault your boyfriend is crazy," Sookie said.

"Well are you going to tell her about Jackson?" Lily asked.

"I was getting to it."

"You went back to Jackson?" Sookie asked.

"Yeah that's why I got bumped back to the early shift. I was there for six months."

"With Alcide?" She asked.

I nodded.

"You lived with Alcide for six months and you still came back to Eric?" Sookie asked.

"It's complicated," I said.

"Apparently. I need to go see Bill."

"Um Sookie before you go over there there's something I need to tell you," Lily said.

"I don't care what it is. I need to talk to Bill."

"Alright, don't say we didn't try to warn you," I said.

OoOoO

When Lily and I got home from Merlotte's Sookie was talking to Tara. "Tara! Oh my goodness! I haven't seen you in a year!"

"Hey Rachel how was Jackson?" She asked.

"It was great," I said.

"How long you been back?"

"A few months.

"Where have you been?" Lily asked.

"New Orleans."

"Well you look fantastic. I love what you did with your hair."

"Thanks Lil."

"Oh, Rachel, Eric bought us a microwave," Sookie said.

"Well you needed a new one. Did he fix the back door?" I asked.

"Yes."

"You don't sound too happy."

"It's Eric Northman!"

"Yeah, he happens to be my boyfriend so if you don't mind at least trying to pretend like you like him."

"Sorry."

"You know what; I'm going over to Bill's."

"Rachel, wait!"

"It's fine."

OoOoO

When I got over to Bill's he was talking to Eric. "Hey," I said.
