Valkyrie was standing facing the kitchen cupboards waiting for the kettle to bowl, she had both hands resting on the marble kitchen surface. She sighed and starting to think about a week ago when she had had her surge and she had to choose either Elemental or Necromancy Tanith had given her some advice, 'Whatever you chose has to come from your heart not your brain.'. She kept thinking about that sentence..
'Whatever you chose has to come from your heart not your brain'...
Come from the heart...
Had she made the right choise? That's when she fest strong, warm arms wrap around her and a chin rest on her left shoulder..
"Whats up?" Came the velvety voice of Skulduggery Pleasant.
"Hmmmm... oh nothing" He kissed her cheek. He had told her he loved her and vice versa after Doctor Nye had found a pill to give him skin for 24 hours but he could only take one every 4 hours after the last one has worn off. But that was three years ago so OLD news!
"Love, i can tell when something is wrong," He turned her around so they were face to face. His blue eyes were the most beautiful she had ever seen they sparkled when he was concerned. (btw when he takes a pill it gives him his old body before he died)
"Okay.. i was thinking about is chosing elemental when i had my surge last week going to stop Darquesse from coming out?" She lied, she didn't want to hurt him by saying if she chose wrong by going with elemental instead of necromancy.
"We will just have to wait and see but I don't know.." The kettle ticked Valkyrie turned around and started to pour the water in the cups and make two cups of tea.
"Mhh.. okay i love you" She turned around and kissed softly on the lips she could feel him smile under his lips.
"I love you too" He said when they broke apart.
"I know why don't we go on holiday? maybe with Ghastly, Tanith, Erskine and Fletcher?" Valkyrie thought about for a few seconds before deciding..
"Okay I'll call Tanith and see if she and Ghastly want to come and you can ask Fletcher and Erskine?" He nodded then pulled his arm right round her waist and picked up his tea and took a swig then kissed Valkyrie softly before turning and walking back into the living room to call Fletcher and Erskine.
Valkyrie started to think if Erskine and Ghastly were allowed time off for a holiday from the Sanctuary being so the Grand Mage and an Elder? But she thought of course they were allowed no one could stop them.
Any way she took a sip from her tea and picked up her phone to text Tanith. Since having the Remnant taken out of her 5 years ago when she was 18. As soon as she woke up her and Ghastly had been together they got engaged and married 2 years ago. They were expecting a child in 8 months but you couldn't see the bump yet. Everyone was excited. Skulduggery and Valkyrie were going to be the godparents. And Fletcher kept telling them to call it after him but Tanith kept telling him no, they had chosen for a girl it would be Lauren and for a boy it would be Harley. CUTE!

"Done" Valkyrie looked up at Skulduggery who was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper

"Have spoken to Fletcher and Erskine darling?" he folded up the newspaper and looked at her lovingly.

"Fletcher said he'll come and Erskine has to book it off" He got up and wrapped his arms around Valkyrie's waist and kissed her passionately, she kissed him back her arms around his neck. There was a lot of tongue action and stroking of hair but 20 seconds later they broke off. Valkyrie finally found her voice.

"I'll go book it then"
