Hehe, hi! sorry I havn't updated these drabbles in so long, so here it is, the second part will be put up tommorow! :) please review and tell me stuff, anything hahaa!
xDBx
It's the fourth of April, and I cannot find anything to wear tomorrow! I swear if my wardrobe was alive, I would have slapped it by now. I wasn't even aware I owned anything pink! URGH. I continued to go through my wardrobe, flinging out any garments that were useless for tomorrow.
"Uh, Del? Why does your room look like it got struck by a bomb?" Valkyrie was leaning against my door frame casually, eyeing the mess on my floor.
"I can't find anything to wear tomorrow and it's really starting to get to me." I gave up and laid down on my floor, on the clothes and started to repeatedly hit the ground.
"Um, what's so special about tomorrow? I mean its Easter Monday, but other than that isn't it just any other Easter Monday? Are you looking for some type of bunny suit?" She said, confused and sarcastic at the same time.
I slowly got up and turned to her, she looked slightly scared. "Go as Neera, I'm too annoyed to tell you right now." I said and returned to finding an outfit. She shrugged and went downstairs.
Valkyrie walked downstairs into the lounge, where Skulduggery and Neera were sat watching the newest Doctor Who on replay. "THEY MADE THE SONIC SCREWDRIVER GREEN?! I MEAN COME ON!" Skulduggery yelled at the television, Valkyrie laughed. He turned to her and blushed, not realising she was in the room. She shook her head,
"Hey Neera, why is Del packing a fuss up there because she can't find an outfit for tomorrow? I mean, it's only Easter Monday right?" she asked. Both Skulduggery and Neera turned to look at her,
"You seriously don't know?" Skulduggery said one eyebrow raised.
"No, I wasn't here last night if that means anything?" both of the pair had a look of realisation across them,
"Ah, well it's her birthday tomorrow, she's saying it's her fourteenth, but really she is turning 103." Neera said.
"Seriously? I can't believe I didn't know that!" Valkyrie exclaimed. Neera nodded.
"Yup, it is, fifth of April is Delphian Bleak's birthday. Once a year, every year. Unless she's dead."
"Oh, and the outfit?"
"She feels like dressing up. I reckon she's trying to impress someone if you ask me." Neera said, ever so slightly flicking her head towards Skulduggery.
Everyone – apart from Skulduggery himself – knew about Delphian's feelings towards the detective. She had always had a crush on him, but the more time she was around him, the more her feelings grew apparently.
"AHA! I FOUND IT!" they heard from upstairs. And Delphian came skipping down. "Hey guys, you alright?" She asked cheerfully. Everyone nodded,
"So you found it then Del?" Valkyrie asked.
"Yup! I knew what I was looking for, I just didn't know where I put it. Ghastly made it for me a few weeks back." She was beaming, and Skulduggery spoke up,
"You seem very happy. I take it it's a very nice outfit?" He asked, seeming quite interested. Again, everyone knew of his feelings towards Delphian apart from the girl herself.
"Yeah, I am" She said a little but more calm.
"So what type of trousers? Is it like jeans, or actually trousers, and what shirt?" Neera asked, after being quiet for so long. Delphian shook her head laughing gently.
"Not telling, you won't know of the outfit until tomorrow and I think you'll be surprised, Ghastly sure was when I asked him to make it. Oh, and don't think of asking him, he won't tell you." She finished, and went back upstairs, Skulduggery had a smile on his face looking at her as she left, and Valkyrie and Neera looked at each other questioningly.
They'd have to wait till tomorrow.
There it is, and yes, it is indeed my birthday tommorow hehe :) thanks for reading and please review :)
