"2. Also Dead as a Doornail (Book 5)

Bill spends the night with Sookie at the hospital after she's been shot. I really like Bill and feel sorry for him here. But I love the fact that he is admitting how special the Eric-Sookie connection is. He points out how full of life Eric & she are, and in a way, how it makes sense that they'd slept together. Bill sounds defeated, yet hopeful that someday he'll be able to win her back.

"I never was in a hospital til I knew you," I said.
"Do you blame me?" [Bill said]
"Sometimes." I watched his face glow. Other people didn't always know a vamp when they saw one. That was hard for me to understand.
"When I met you, the first night I came into Merlotte's, I didn't know what to think of you," he said. "You were so pretty, so full of vitality, and I could tell there was something different about you. You were interesting."
"My curse," I said.
"Or your blessing." He put one of his cool hands on my cheek.
"No fever," he said to himself, "you'll heal." Then he sat up straighter. "You slept with Eric while he was staying with you."
"Why are you asking if you already know?" There was such a thing as too much honesty.
"I'm not asking. I knew when I saw you together. I smelled him all over you. I could tell how you felt about him. We've had each other's blood. It's hard to resist Eric." Bill went on in a detached way. "He's as vital as you are, and you share a zest for life. But I'm sure you know that..." He paused, seemed to be trying to frame what he wanted to say.
"I know that you'd be happy if I never slept with anyone else in my life," I said, putting his thoughts into words for him.
"And how do you feel about me?"
"The same.""

"SPOILER***




no no. Sookie seems to be in the hospital quite a bit, so it's hard to keep her stays straight. lol. This is from book 5. Sookie gets shot on the shoulder because Sweetie mistakes her for a shifter. Bill spends the night in the hospital with her and she asks him if he can lay in bed next to her. Claude picks her up from the hospital the next day and takes her to the apartment she rented from Sam (because her house had the fire set by Charles Twining).

The scene in book 6 you're referring to is when Sookie is in the hospital in New Orleans after cleaning out Hadley's apartment.. Jake woke up as a new vamp and attacked her and Amelia. Eric comes to see her first, then Bill. Bill is annoyed Eric is there, and Eric makes Bill tell Sookie the truth. Sookie ends up leaving the hosital and walking back to Hadley's apartment without having been treated. Hope this helps clarify. =) "

"Help, is book 9 out already? Did I miss it? I'm heading to the book store!"

"
Eric: What did we do, Sookie? And to whom?
Sookie: It was chicken blood. I killed a chicken and cooked it.
Eric: Sookie, Sookie. My bullshit meter is reading that as a ‘false.’ — Dead as a Doornail

Eric: When this witch is defeated, I would bring you to my side. I will share everything I have with you. Every vampire who owes me fealty will honor you. — Dead to the World


Okay about this quote (When Bill says he would die for her and asks Eric he could say the same) - I was kinda bummed he wouldn't risk himself for her but Bill would. I know it fits with his character, but still...

You must also know this. Even more pertinently, if anything happens to her, forces you can’t imagine will be set into motion. — From Dead to Worse

"**Book 8 possible SPOILER**







"This is Eric," he said. "Is this my former lover?"
Okay, even that made things inside me thud & shiver in excitement........
"I lay in front of your fire and talked to you about your life," he said.
Okay, way out of left field. "Uh. Yeah. We did that."
"I remember our shower together."
"We did that, too"
"We did so many things."
"Ah... yeah. okay."
"In fact, if I didn't have so much to do here in Shreveport, I would be tempted to visit you all by myself to remind you how much you enjoyed those things."
If memory serves," I said sharply, "you kind of enjoyed them too"
"Oh, yes."
"Eric, I really need to go. I got to get to work." Or spontaineously combust, whichever came first.
"Good-bye." He could make even that sound sexy.
"Good-bye." I didn't.

Okay, I know that's a long one, but I love how he mentions the shower second, after the talk by the fire. SO telling."
