[waking up as she comes back to bed] I dreamed you were gone.
You did?... That's funny, 'cause I was.
Sookie...
It was only for a few minutes. I had to. Bill, it's the most amazin' thing. I met another telepath and he's not a vampire or very good at it. Oh, it's wonderful knowin' there's somebody besides me.
You made him aware of your gift after everything I've said?
Not on purpose. We were in each other's heads before we knew it. I thought you'd be happy for me.
The more people know what you do, the harder it is for me to protect you.
[about Barry] He can't even admit what he is to himself. He's not gonna do any talkin' about it.
You can't be sure.
Yes, I can. I'm good at this. Look, if all we're supposed to do in Dallas is shut up and take orders, I might as well be slingin' beers at Merlotte's. You're the one who told me I was more than a waitress.
You are. But...
What?
Never mind.
Talk to me. Lean on me. I've leaned on you plenty.
Well, here I am responsible for you and Jessica. Yet no decisions are mine. It makes me feel...
Like a human?
Like a waitress.
You're walkin' in my shoes and it's givin' you blisters.
Eric is strangely intent about all this. It's not like him. I don't trust it.
Don't you worry about Eric. We'll do the job and go home. A deal's a deal.
Sookie, you know what he's like. It's not like him to break a contract with a girl.
A woman... he needs me. He won't wanna make me mad.
...I can't lose you.
You never will.
