"Would you let me finish?" Valkyrie moaned, slumping in the front seat of the Bentley. Skulduggery had been more annoying than ever today. They're conversation had gone from banter to a full blown argument for the first time Val could remember.
Skulduggery stopped talking and nodded. "Okay." Val calmed herself "I was going to say, it will only be for a little while. A week. That's it."
"You could always send your reflection."
Valkyrie snorted "What? And miss the only vacation I've had in three years?"
"You could always take me with you."
"Yeah, and the man dressed in winter clothes by the pool won't look suspicious at all..." Valkyrie laughed "Never mind the fact that he'd be following me around."
"Good point. " The Bentley turned a particularly sharp corner and Val's head hit off the window, making her wince and hold her head. Yep, that was going to swell. Skulduggery laughed.
"What happened to 'are you okay'?" She was shocked! He was laughing at her pain. Ouch.
"When I told Kenspeckle you could handle yourself I meant it. Plus, it's not like it's a fatal injury." He snorted. He snorted!
"You know. I was thinking about staying home."
"Oh well that's-"
"I was thinking about staying home." She sat back up in her seat triumphantly "Not anymore."
"I swear, one of these days I am going to kill you."
"Just make sure it's not my reflection then, it tends not to be so effective."
