My first collection of drabbles! (Not sure are you guys already sick of drabbles…) I'm so excited and hope you guys like these. There are some paring like Valduggery and Ganith. Then there are some song fics too, which I love to write. And some are just wrote in small moments of my craziness. I like to once again remind that I am from FINLAND, and my English isn't perfect all the time.

! I DO NOT own anything ! Everything in this collection of drabbles belong to their rightful owners! Mostly Derek Landy! So please don't sue me…

So anyway, enjoy and don't forget the two important words: R&R!


It was a warm summer day in Ireland. Valkyrie and Tanith were sitting in the kitchen of Valkyrie's parent's house. I few days Valkyrie was ready to move in Gordon's house and reclaim her heritage since she was already eighteen. But she had decided to spent couple more weeks with her parents before moving. Valkyrie and Tanith were reading Valkyries mother's old magazine. They moved to the horoscope page.

"OK", Tanith said. "Scorpio… Scorpio… Here, Scorpio: you will meet difficult people and troubles", she though it for a while and then sighed. "I guess its trouble at work again"

"What about your love life?" Valkyrie asked and Tanith smirked.

"That's not for children"

"Tanith", Valkyrie said laughing and punched her on her arm friendly.

"Aw fine. Love life: Feelings are stirring up in this month. You also heard by accident that someone likes you", Tanith blushed a bit and Valkyrie laughed like crazy. Tanith fuzzed Valkyrie's hair to get her shut up.

"Quiet you, I don't even believe in these things anyway"

"Yeah, right", Valkyrie said skeptically arching her eyebrow.

"Fine, let's read what starts tell to you", Tanith said.

"Alright. Um… Sagittarius: This month is full of friends and surprises. Enjoy the summer as much as possible", Valkyrie said and smirked to Tanith.

"Yawn, boring", Tanith said. "Love life?"

"Hmm… Uh, you will fell for a person, but it's hard to get feelings back from him. Carpe Diem, seize the moment". Valkyrie said and turned to Tanith, who was grinning a wide smile.

"What?" Valkyrie asked and Tanith leaned closer to her.

"You are going to fall in love!" she yelled smiling.

"Wh… What!? No, you said that you don't believe in these things!" Valkyrie yelled blushing deep red and Tanith just chuckled.

"I changed my mind!", she said excited practically jumping while sitting. "I got to tell someone!"

"No! Tanith, I'm not going to fall in love!". Tanith looked at Valkyrie with a fake pout and then started to tickle her.

"Don't be so boring!"

"What, Tanith", Valkyrie laughed. "No, no… Sto… Stop it… tickling me…e", she managed to say between the laughs.

***

Two days passed and Valkyrie sat on the windowsill in her room, her laptop on her arms. She was chatting to Tanith, who was back in England. They were talking about the horoscope.

MissLowCut says:

So, have you got anything on you mind? Any hot men on the sight? ;)

ValC_ain says:

Not yet. I'm starting to think that it was wrong… *phew*

MissLowCut says:

No phews! I believe in that horoscope! It has to be correct!

ValC_ain says:

I'm sure you do. You believe all kinds of freaky stuff :D

MissLowCut says:

You won't be laughing when it will happen :DDDD

Suddenly Valkyrie felt a hand on her shoulder and she screamed falling on the ground. Skulduggery lifted himself on the windowsill and caught her laptop before it hit the ground.

"Skulduggery!" Valkyrie yelled angrily. "I'm really starting to fed up with you climbing in my window with out a warning! It makes you look like a stalker!"

"No it doesn't. It makes me look mysterious. And you know what I say; Doors are for people—", Skulduggery stared.

"With manors, you bonehead" Valkyrie ended his sentence irritated and stood up.

"You know that's not really an insult there for my head is actually bone. So, whom are you chatting with?" Skulduggery asked and was about to open the laptop but Valkyrie snatched it away from him.

"No one!"

"Ah, so it's some guy?" Skulduggery said and chuckled.

"No, it's Tanith", she said and put her laptop on her bed. Suddenly her mother voice came from outside her room.

"Steph, who are you talking to?" Valkyrie panicked. She gripped Skulduggery by his shirt collar and swung him inside her closet, before he had time to understand what was happening. Then she hurried to her room's door, smoothed her hair and opened the door.

"Hi, mom, what's up?", she said smiling widely. Her mother looked surprised.

"Is someone else here?" her mother asked.

"Nope, just me"

"Really, I could swear that I heard someone else's voice?" her mother said looking over her shoulder.

"Mom, you are just paranoid", Valkyrie said and laughed nervously.

"I think I am. Well, start packing now. Tomorrow you are going to move in Gordon's house, remember?"

"Yep, I do. I will", Valkyrie said nodding and her mother walked away. Valkyrie sighed and walked to the closet door. Inside the closet, Skulduggery was leaning against the door and had listened the conversation. When Valkyrie opened the door, Skulduggery reeled and collided with Valkyrie, who screamed out of surprise. They both fell on the floor. When Valkyrie opened her eyes she noticed that she was lying on the floor, Skulduggery on top of her. At first she was about to kick him off on her, but then she stopped. She just started at him and didn't move. And neither did Skulduggery. They looked at each other in deep silence. The only voice was the cars occasionally passing her house. A bird sang and wind rushed. Valkyrie felt weird and warm feeling in her belly. She blushed slightly and Skulduggery leaned closer to her. Valkyrie wasn't resisting, until a new knock came from the door.

"Stephanie, this time I wasn't hearing things. What are you doing?" her mother yelled again and now both of them panicked. Valkyrie jumped up and practically threw Skulduggery out from the window and slammed it shut. She ran to her bed and took her laptop. Her mother opened the door and Valkyrie looked at her lying on the bed.

"Hi mom, missed me already?". Her mother looked around the room.

"I could swear—" she murmured and closed the door. Valkyrie sighed once again and looked at the ceiling. She really needed to move in to her own place. She looked at the conversation she was having with Tanith.

MissLowCut says:

Where did you disappeared? Valkyrie was about to tell Tanith the whole closet story, but then she smiled.

ValC_ain says:

You know what, you were right

MissLowCut says:

?

ValC_ain says:

I'm not laughing anymore. It took a while before Tanith understood her message.

MissLowCut:

What? The horoscope was right?! Who is it? Who? Tell meeeeeee!!!!

ValC_ain says:

;)
