The crowd around me consisted of vampires. One of them was Eric. I could not decipher his face.
"The tall blond will help me," I told Tara, my voice barely a rasp. I pointed a finger at Eric. I didn't look at him for fear I'd read rejection in his eyes. If Eric wouldn't help me, I suspected I would lie here and die on this polished wood floor in a vampire bar in Jackson, Mississippi.
My brother, Jason, would be so pissed off.
I just noticed that Sookie cannot "decipher" Eric's face more than once in this book. I think Eric had already fallen for her, head-over-heels, and she's totally clueless about it (or in the denial, or both)... Hence her inability to read his face. :-)
