Valkyrie walked into Skulduggery's house. She still hadn't forgotten about the library, And she wasn't going to let him forget it either.

Skulduggery followed her, He hung his coat on the hanger and did the same with Valkyrie's. Which she had thrown on the floor.

Valkyrie wondered into Skulduggery's livingroom. Her eyes wondered smooth black leather sofas, The white walls, The wooden floor.

Her boots clicked softly and she slumped into the corner sofa infront of the golden fire place, She watched Skulduggery as he threw logs into it and light it. He shrugged his suit jacket off and loosened his tie, He rolled up his shirt sleaves and took off his gloves.

She arched an eyebrow as he slouched into the second sofa, Putting his feet up. "Your relaxed." She commented.

"Need a break every once in a while" He laughed.

"Is that why you vanished for 2 days?"

"Nah, I turned invisible because i wanted to think about things" He said, Letting his head lol back.

She turned around fully to face him. Curiosity getting the better of her. "What things?"

"Things"

"I Some-how think it has got something to do with what China said." She grinned.

"Not really..."

She ignored him and continued, "Please disable yourself from the skeleton, I know how much he is enjoying it and You know what i am implying," She got up and walked over to the skeleton sprawled out over the sofa. She placed both arms either side of his sholders. "From what she said, As a good detective told me, I have used the information to produce evedence. And my conclusion is that you fancy me"

He sighed. He had tought her too much. "No.." He paused. "I don't"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes"

"I don't believe you"

"And yet, You trust me"

"Course i trust you."

"Good. That means you have to believe me"

"No it really doesn't"

"Why not?"

"Because you lie when it comes to your feelings. You said it yourself, You care too much"

"That may be true, No reason for me to love you though"

"There may not be a reason for you to love me, But you do love me"

He sighed. "Can we please come off the subject?"

She looked him in the eye socket. "If you say you love me, I will say i love you too"

"But it won't be true"

"How do you know that?"

"Because not every teenager falls in-love with a skeleton."

"I. love. you." She said.

"Prove it" He growled.

She sighed and gripped his collar. She kissed his teeth, She felt Skulduggery's arm slip around her waist and pull her close as he layed back into the chair, Valkyrie ontop of him.

He pulled away, Realising what he was doing. "Stop." He said. A hand on her sholder, Trying to gently push her away. But she wasn't going to give up.

She sent shadows at his hand and they threw it off her sholder, She decended on him again, Letting her lips loose on his teeth again.

He pushed her away by her hip this time. "Valkyrie" He told her. But she pushed his arms away and kissed him on the teeth again.

He pulled away, "Valkyrie, Loving you his wrong-" He was cut off by her lips at him again. He pulled away again. "-Valkyrie, I can't give you what you want"

She sighed and pulled away from him. "I don't care what you say. I love you and that is all there is to it." She said and kissed him again. He gave into himself an he felt his bones tense. He rolled so they fell onto the floor. He leaned into her neck and bit into the skin. Making her groan and pull his bones closer.

She let her hand brush his hip bone and he growled. Letting his hands run up her tunic.

He kissed her with his teeth and pulled away to speek, "Did you know how hot you are?" He asked.

"Yeah," She smiled. Out of breath. "I am surprised you arn't making a comment on you're self."

"Oh i don't need to. You love me that much anyway."

He leaned into her. "In your dreams." She said.

"I don't know about that." He said. "But i know i will be in yours" He said and pressed his teeth against her lips.
