Valkyries P.O.V :
I sat on the ground and thought about my predicament. If i'd fallen in love it would be a good thing wouldn't it. It would be grand. It's not like i'm horrible at being bold. Not like i'm too shy or that I would be stupid enough to fall for a villain. For a psychopath. No Miss Cain would never do anything such as that ,oh no. I am even dumber than that. I fell for him. Curse him for being himself. A Benterly pulled up on the sidewalk, it's black cote gleaming brightly in the light. God, I don't think the passenger seat ever looked so good.
Skulduggery's P.O.V :
She got up off the sidewalk and I almost couldn't take in the breath I suddenly needed. She was so gorges. So perfect. I loved her and she would never know. Nor would she ever love me back. Yet a couldn't tell you why, maybe it was her beautiful long black hair. Maybe her deep chestnut eyes that saw through me like no one else in the world, or her smile that
consistently mesmerized me. She understood me and she still cared about me. Even after all the terrible things i'v done. She always had my back. Always. She was the strongest and most stubborn girl I knew. A warrior. A fighter, someone intelligent you you could rely on..."Are we going" said Valkyrie from beside me. Uhhhhh "yes". I quickly pulled out and got on the road. What a fantastic thing skeletons don't blush. She looked nerves. "Valkyrie, uh you okay? "Yea fine why? She spoke far too quickly to be telling the truth but I didn't really want to pry. Still I was curios.
Valkyries P.O.V :
He kept looking at me in the car. "Valkyrie, uh you okay? Before I could really think about it the words came rushing out of my mouth in a defensive jumble"Yea fine why? . He was still looking at me funny. He know's, shit he knows. Shit! Shit! shit! well of corse he knows. He's a detective and you'r being obvious Valkyrie. I snuck a look behind my hair. He was still looking at me. He did not look pleased. He obviously was not happy. Maybe I was jumping to conclusions . Maybe If I spoke up. I was braver than this, if I just tell him how I feel. Tell him why. He will understand, I'm sure. After all you can't blame someone for falling in love. "Skulduggery..." "Yes" he answered calmly "I..." but what if he docent. What if he got angry, he could tell.. I choked on my words before they came out. I wouldn't tell him. "so.."I tried to make conversation. "are we going to the sanctuary? at that my thoughts drifted off.
I thought of the man I loved that would never love me back.
