This awesome story idea came from badwolf907 so thanks for that :)

So I was watching Spongebob Squarepants (that's right, I love it!) and Plankton said skulduggery! I thought it was kind of freaky cos' I was writing a Skulduggery story at the time. Meh, not so fraky when you think about it hahaha, anyway hope you enjoy!

Valkyrie was in the kitchen of her mansion making tea. Sitting on a barstool across the bench was Tanith. They talked about her and Ghastly and Valkyrie and Skulduggery.

"Ghastly loves you. Me and Skulduggery were discussing it and we can just tell. Plus I have inside information." Valkyrie winked and smiled.

"Yes well that may be but we just feel so awkward with each other."

"What's awkward? You both know you love each other yet you don't act on it. It confuses me." Skulduggery and Valkyrie had been trying so hard the past few weeks to get them together. They tried everything, making excuses up to leave them alone in the room, making jokes about their love for each other but nothing would work.

"Ha! Like you can judge, what about you and Skulduggery eh?" Tanith laughed as she took sips of her tea and almost choked.

"He doesn't love me." Valkyrie frowned, it pierced her heart to say that. Though what could she expect? Would a skeleton want to be in a relationship? Would it be depressing for him? Valkyrie shivered at the thoughts, she wouldn't want to do that to Skulduggery, and she wasn't that selfish.

"Valkyrie, the way he looks at you is like nothing I've ever seen before." Tanith explained like she was talking to a dumb person.

"Maybe because you can't tell the way he looks at me because he doesn't have eyeballs."

"Valkyrie! You make it so hard to tell you something that is the truth."

"Hmm, whatever you say Tanith but I'm sticking to my own theory for now." Valkyrie looked at Tanith and her baby blue pyjamas with dancing monkeys and laughed. Her hair was also tangled and messed up on one side and the other side was smooth.

"I was thinking about calling Ghastly later." Tanith said.

"Oh, didn't I tell you they were coming over soon?" Tanith's mouth made a small 'o' shape.

"How soon?" She asked and Valkyrie looked at the clock on the wall.

"In, uh, about 5 minutes." Tanith yelped and sprinted upstairs. Valkyrie was already dressed, her hair was done and her teeth were clean as well.

Valkyrie answered the door when a knock echoed through the house. Skulduggery walked in the door and Ghastly followed giving Valkyrie a warm smile.

She led them to the front living room and they all sat down. Ghastly sat on a single couch and Valkyrie and Skulduggery sat together on the long lounge. Tanith bounded down the stairs and sat on the other single couch. Awkward silence soon followed and Skulduggery and Valkyrie looked at each other.

"Hey Skulduggery want some tea?" Valkyrie asked.

"Sure." Instantly, the two got up and walked out of the room and into the kitchen. "Do you know how stupid that was? I kind of can't drink, because you know, it would fall straight to the ground."

Valkyrie grabbed a bowl of peanuts and started nibbling on some.

"I know, I know just shh." She peeked around the wall looking at the silent couple with disappointment. She had to do something. She looked at the bowl of peanuts in her hand and back at Tanith.

Valkyrie started throwing peanuts at Tanith. By the eighth throw, she managed to hit Tanith in the eye and Tanith shrieked and glared at Valkyrie.

"Are you okay?" Ghastly asked.

"Oh I think there is salt or dust in my eye or something." She replied throwing a quick glare towards Valkyrie.

"Hey Skulduggery," Valkyrie whispered. "I think it's working." He ran over and peeked around as well.

"Want me to have a look?" Ghastly asked.

"Sure." Tanith said and Ghastly got up and walked over. He grabbed her hand and Ghastly moved close to look into her eye. Tanith looked at their hands entwined together so then Ghastly wasn't able to see her eye. They both looked up at the same time and moved closer.

They got so close together then their noses knocked making them jerk back.

"Oh just come here." Tanith said and grabbed his collar, pulling him towards her. They kissed passionately and it was long. Skulduggery pulled Valkyrie from the wall and into the kitchen.

"Let's give them some privacy. You're good at getting people together, eh?" Skulduggery said and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her towards him. She smiled and tugged his tie, pulling him down gently and kissed his teeth. He pulled back to tap the tattoos then they kissed again. Another knock came from the front door, interrupting both couples. When Skulduggery and Valkyrie walked out hand-in-hand, Tanith winked. At the front door was China and Solomon Wreath.

Valkyrie couldn't hide her surprise.

"Wow, China I haven't seen you outside your library for quite some time. Same for Wreath and the temple." Skulduggery noted. China and Solomon looked at each other and smiled, Solomon grabbed China's hand.

"Oh." Was all Valkyrie said and invited them in.

China, Solomon, Skulduggery, Valkyrie, Ghastly and Tanith all sat at the table for lunch. Skulduggery had no food in front of him so he rested his elbows on the table.

The whole lunch was silent and awkward with Solomon and China there. Skulduggery glared at Wreath, Tanith glared at China and Ghastly and Valkyrie looked at each other feeling helpless and bored. They both shrugged and continued eating.

I didn't really know how to end it :/ Sorry if the China and Wreath bit seemed out of place.

Wow, it's 2am here in Australia and I'm not tired. Review!
