The midnight hotel
Chapter six
Skulduggery's little bit of fun. Hope this is okay not sure if it works I thought I'd try to bring some humour in, then the story will go back on track. I should explain I started writing this because of LSDM I wanted more shudder in my life and this is how I'm doing that. Eh hope you enjoy and reviews are welcome. A big thank you to those who already have made this more helpful knowing it's liked. P.S I don't own anything to do with the skulduggery pleasant series .
Valkyrie woke up to splitting sun and birds chirping she couldn't help but smile. She'd done it. After the zombie horde and little visits and even some combat practice she had fallen for Shudder. She was a little score between the legs but other than that she was euphoric. She sat up and checked the time. Nine! Nine in the morning Skulduggery would be at her house at ten. She coursed under her breath. She wanted to tell him, she so badly wanted to tell him, he was her best friend and she wanted to tell her best friend she had sex. And great sex too not that she was an expert but she remembered how amazing it had been. She had no female friends to tell and she wanted to share this with him. But she was scared of his reaction. Would he be angry or annoyed,? Her phone rang interrupting her thoughts. Speak of the devil.
"Hi".
"Hello, good morning I hope you slept well last night". He smiled knowing full well what she had done last night.
"Yes I slept fine thank you very much."
"Off course you did after a night of strenuous exercise" He was trying very hard from keeping his smile out of the conversation.
"I don't know what you mean" Valkyrie panicking how did he know he couldn't know. Could he? No he couldn't.
"Valkyrie we spent half the night trying to kill the death bringer and each other you don't call that strenuous"
"Oh yeah I mean I forgot I mean I didn't forget just Skul I'm just up and confused also I want a lie in so can you pick me up about twelve." She was screwed she knew it how in hell could she have just said I forgot about Vile and Darquesse.
He was enjoying this. This was the most fun he had in a while.
"Ah yes see the reason I called is something popped up and I was phoning to say I will need to go the midnight hotel and ask Shudder if he will keep a look out for a small bearded man with a cane he tried to break into the vault. I know Shudder won't help but it's worth a try anyway. So I was going to say you stay in bed have a rest I'll do this and we'll meet later.
She was panicking now he was coming here. Off all the times for him to need to talk to Shudder. Speaking of which were in god's name was he, no focus you've been quiet for too long speak. Say something, anything.
"I need to pee but sure yeah that's fine."
"Okay a little too much information but good I'll phone you when I've went and spoke to shudder" She hung up and he finally allowed himself to laugh. Though as funny as it was he was curious to why she hadn't told him, even if she had said I'm already here wanted a rest, I'm doing extra training she could have come up with a number of lies and she hadn't. As confusing as it was he was glad she hadn't.
