SO, I CHANGED THE TITLE OF THIS STORY BECAUSE IT DIDN'T REALLY FIT AND THE BEST THING I COULD COME UP WITH IS 'CHINA IN LOVE'. PRETTY BORING HUH? IF ANYONE CAN THINK OF A BETTER TITLE THEN PLEASE TELL ME HA HA :) HERE'S PART 3 FOR YOU ALL.
'No, this cant be' China thought. She was filled with so many different emotions: jealousy, sadness, anger and above all she was heartbroken, but she showed none of these. Instead she put a delighted smile on her face.
"Have you told her?" China asked.
"Not yet," Skulduggery admitted. "That's why I came to see you. I want you to help me plan the perfect way to tell her."
"Me? why?"
"Because your the closed female friend I have... well, apart from Valkyrie and Tanith but obviously I can't go to Valkyrie and I figured Tanith would just tell her straight away. I would just simply tell her but according to Fletcher she's a difficult person to impress so I need advise from a woman's point of view."
"Oh, you told Fletcher?"
"What? No! He talked to me for what seemed like hours about Valkyrie. He is so annoying."
China couldn't help giggling. "Couldn't agree with you more."
"So, will you help me then?"
"Wait, so let me get this straight. You want me to help you find the perfect way to tell Valkyrie you love her? Even after all I've done?"
"The past is the past. It cannot be changed. I forgive you, China, and I trust you."
"Well then, I don't see why not." China said cheerfully. Of course she could think of loads of reasons to object but for some reason she found herself agreeing to help him.
"Thank you."
China nodded. "And what do you think about..."
Skulduggery's phone rang. "Sorry I've got to take this." And with that Skulduggery walked out the room, leaving China alone with her thoughts.
By the time Skulduggery came back, China was half asleep, day dreaming.
"Hey, look I've been called to a meeting and I am being forced to attend. Is it alright if I came over tomorrow at 6 to discuss about you know who?" Skulduggery said, a hint of annoyance in his voice.
"Sounds perfect."
"Goodbye China and thank you." Skulduggery turned and showed himself out.
After China was sure he had gone she sighed a long, sad sigh. A single tear of self pity rolled down her cheek before she laid back on the sofa and fell asleep.
LOTS OF TAKING GOING ON HERE...
