[Eric sneaks into Sookie's bedroom. She wakes with a start to see him leaning over her, fangs out, and he pulls back.]
Eric, what the hell?!
Uh...I had a bad dream.
“Me and the Devil” · Season 4, Episode 5
In this episode: Sookie Stackhouse (3), Eric Northman (3)
I don't know why I'm crying.
Godric was your maker. You loved him. You miss him.
He said I was evil.
It was a dream [she strokes his hair]
[turns to face her] Am I evil?
Well, you're not Gandhi, but no, you're not evil.
[lays his head in her lap] I like being next to you. [she laughs] Why are you laughing?
It's just that if someone had told me a week ago I'd be curled up in bed with Eric Northman, stroking his hair, I woulda...
You would've what?
It's just...you weren't always like this.
Like what?
Gentle. Sweet. But it suits you. It's what Godric would've wanted. To see you like this. He was the most human of all the vampires I've ever met.
Strange to miss someone you don't remember. Would it be alright if I stayed here till sunrise?
As long as you promise to keep your hands and your fangs to yourself.
I promise. [He turns and she lies next to him. He takes her arm and wraps it around himself.] I will never hurt anyone as beautiful as you.
Did I really do all those terrible things your friend said I did?
Yes.
Then your pain is my fault. Why are you letting me stay with you?
Because there's more to you. I always knew there was decency in you. Even when you were a smug sarcastic ass, I still knew it.
Whether decency is in me is irrelevant. I'm clearly capable of extreme cruelty.
You were, but I wouldn't be here with you right now, I swear it, if I didn't know in my heart you could change. I've seen you change. And I like it. I like you.
There's a light in you. It's beautiful. I couldn't bear it if I snuffed it out. [gets up and leaves]
[goes after him] Eric! Please don't go.
[He walks back to the porch, and she holds her arms out for a hug. They embrace, breathing each other in, as he strokes her hair. She kisses him softly on the cheek, then they begin to kiss passionately.]
