[ Location: Eric's Shabby Flat ] AU - Some Things Don't Change

Godric sits on the cot that Eric was kind enough to set up for him, believing he's alone in the house, for now. It's a little place, just a studio with bare floors and no curtains, but it's home for now. It's nicer than a lot of other places he's slept. Left to his thoughts, his mind wanders and he pulls out Sookie's pictureIt had been taken at

Godric is indeed alone in the house, but not for long. The low rumbling sound of a motorcycle can be heard pulling up the drive as Eric returns from his ride into town. He had no real reason for it, but sometimes he just wants to feel the wind in his hair at a fast speed. He also brought back burgers from Peggy Sue's. No drinks, unfortunately, since that would be a little too difficult on a bike, but there are a couple of beers in the fridge so it works out.

"I hope you're hungry," he says, as he walks in the front door.

Godric is so lost in thought that even the roar of Eric's bike fails to bring him out of it. Only Eric's boisterous voice snaps him back to the present, and he starts a little before registering what Eric said, and the accompanying smell of burgers. He smiles and tucks the picture away in his jacket.

"Starving," he says lightly. He isn't actually. He's starved before -- not seriously or for long, but enough to count -- and this isn't it. But he is definitely hungry, and he's a teenage boy. So 'starving' about covers the speed at which he's about to devour that burger.

He notices Godric jump a little and put away whatever he was looking at. His curiosity is piqued, but it's really not his business. "Sorry, kid, didn't mean to scare you."

He tosses Godric one of the burgers and sits in the only chair in the room. "I didn't know what you liked, so I just got the basics." Not having seen each other outside of a military situation makes it difficult to find out these kinds of things. "There's milk in the fridge, or beer if you want it. Water. Maybe some orange juice, but I wouldn't count on it."

Eric starts eating his own hamburger, quietly for a while, until finally he asks, "What were you looking at when I came in?" So much for that being none of his business.

Godric catches the burger and rises to go grab a beer.

"Thanks. I'm good with anything, burgers are great." He pops the beer open and takes a long swig before digging into his food with relish. He pauses mid-bite when Eric asks about the picture. He chews to give himself a second before answering.

"Just a picture."
