"Terribly sorry" Skulduggery adjusted his hat.
"Oh it's alright… I should've seen that reaction coming." China got out her phone and called someone to come build a new wall and clean up the rubble.
"Mr. Pleasant?" She touched Skulduggerys arm. "In my office for a moment?"
Skulduggery sighed and stepped into the well-furnished office. Ravel had decorated it differently, Skulduggery thought, then felt a small pain in his chest where he knew his heart should be.
"I'm sorry about the wall, China I'll-"
Skulduggery barely had time to register what happened next. China threw herself at Skulduggery and pressed gently on the tattoos she had put there. Skulduggery was still in shock when Chinas lips pressed against his.
This was an alien experience to Skulduggery, who had not even had lips for over 400 years. He found himself responding and kissing back until China pulled away with a giggle and left, leaving Skulduggery VERY confused to say the least
