I would like to take a moment to thank everyone who added my story to their favourites and the people who reviewed. You are all awesome.
"So, Valarie-"
"-Valkyrie"
"Whatever"
"No, not whatever. Valkyrie"
"Okay, so Valkyrie, why'd you call?"
I sighed. "I really don't know. Ever since Skulduggery got- got-"
And suddenly, without warning, I burst into tears. How embarrassingly girly.
Fletcher was not comfortable with tears.
He came over to sit next to me, and patted me on the back awkwardly on the back. "Don't worry. We'll find a way to get Skulduggery back." I thought about what Wreath had said, and decided against telling Fletcher. I managed to stop the tears, and looked up at Fletcher. Despite his discomfort, Fletcher looked genuinely concerned about me. Odd. I never thought Fletcher cared about me, even a little bit. He just stuck with Skulduggery and I because he didn't want the world to end.
"So, Valkyrie… did you need some cheering up? A shoulder to cry on? Anything?"
"Um, like I said before, I don't know. I think I just need to have fun."
"And you immediately thought of me? Thanks."
"Fletcher, what do think would cheer me up? Seriously, I need to take my mind off… Things."
"Um, well, what about I take you bowling? That always cheers me up" He gave me a hopeful smile, a nice change from his usual, cocky one. I couldn't help but smile back.
Okay, the end of chapter 2. What do you think? Please review. Thanks
