"Er Skul, there's something I've been meaning to ask you and it's sort of a delicate subject but I can't seem stop thinking about it and I figure we're close enough now that it won't make things awkward and-"
"Valkyrie I have no idea what you're talking about so just ask me whatever it is already and let me get on with this very important and very exciting filing."
Valkyrie's face flushed and she fixed her gaze firmly on the table in front of her before quickly muttering, "You remember when we, well when I say we I mean Darquesse and Vile, but anyway, remember when we had that fight after stopping Melancholia and I said I couldn't remember what happened; well I wasn't exactly telling the truth. I can't remember a lot of it but I have this erm vague sort of memory of doing something to you that's more than a little embarrassing…" She glanced up at Skulduggery; she knew that if he had a face it would currently be wearing a bemused expression.
"Yes Valkyrie? And what would that be?"
"This is going to be so mortifying if I've just made this up but I have this memory of pinning you, or should I say Vile, against a wall and well, kissing you. Quite roughly I might add." She said, laughing nervously.
Skulduggery chuckled before replying, "No no, luckily for you your brain has not just made that up. I was going to mention it to you but I thought I'd spare you the humiliation, I can be quite nice on occasion you see."
"Oh, well, thank you for sorting that out. I'm still absolutely mortified of course."
"Of course."
A few minutes passed in silence before Valkyrie looked up at Skulduggery and said quickly, "so, feel like doing it again?"
