— You bet your ass she asks Scott to open all the jars and bottles in the house that are hard to open. Sometimes plastic water bottles too, when she's just lazy.

— She loves to ask Scott to help her study, even if she's confident in the school material, but studying with him and Stiles is just so much fun 

— Liam catches her humming a Justin Timberlake song while she's stirring a pot of spaghetti and it gets him thinking

— "Scott said you hated pop music." 

— "I do."

— Melissa can cook but she prefers when Valentina does 

— Valentina loves cooking especially when no one is around

— Of course, she loves to volunteer at the animal shelter too

— mocks Scott and Liam and even Derek by putting on fake werewolf teeth (yes, like the ones that glow for Halloween) and growling at them while putting her fingers out like claws

— Stiles tells her she's going to be found dead in a ditch if she doesn't stop, but then she growls at him too

— Stiles actually thinks Valentina is annoying but feels for her because he knows about everything she's been through

— Stiles actually kinda assumed the position of another big brother with no hesitation

— Lacrosse games!!!!

— Allison never wanted Valentina to be brought into her family war, but it's like Valentina's personal code that no one fights a battle on their own

— it's her code because before moving back to Beacon Hills, Valentina fought every battle on her own and doesn't want anyone else to

— But actually she was terrified when she saw Scott as a wolf for the first time and she still gets nightmares about Jackson

— "Stiles wasn't the only one who knew Lydia was smart, I did too! She was always ahead of us in third grade!"

— Valentina was the only excited one to go to Mexico

— "What do you mean you're not happy we're going to Mexico? Sure, the reasons are bad, but think of how many people get to do this! Stop rolling your eyes, Stiles!" 

— when Isaac was staying at the McCall house, Valentina would check on him in the middle of the night and tuck him in 

— she's actually like, the only one who understood the abuse Isaac went through

— when he leaves for Paris, she texts and calls him to make sure he's doing okay

— "I miss her too, Isaac"

— A lot of sleepless nights replaying the night Allison died or waking up in a cold sweat

— So Liam actually kinda sucked at hiding his crush on Valentina, but she found it adorable

— Something about that awkward first conversation, sitting next to each other in class, sharing looks throughout the school day

— But Scott was very hesitant about it, considering Liam was his beta and the fact that Valentina was there when Liam got bit so not much was left to the imagination

— "Scott, I'm being serious, please stay out of this."

— "No can do."

— Except that Valentina and Scott love going to each other for relationship advice

— Living with Scott was the best thing that ever happened to her, even if they fought like they were twelve and went at it like siblings

— Valentina trusted Liam despite his reputation partially because of how much she trusted Scott

— Liam always tried extra hard to win her over and impress her when she came to the lacrosse games and she definitely noticed

— Hell, he was already protective of her before they even started dating

— Unfortunately for Scott, Valentina only found herself more attracted to him

— Always being walked to class is nice, especially when your book bag is held for you

— Passing notes too, especially when the two needed to talk about something serious during class

— Liam doesn't even care when Valentina takes his food

— This surprises Scott since usually, every little thing gets Liam rilled up

— Liam loves to sneak in through her window at night and Scott usually pretends not to hear

— Valentina is just incredibly loved by everyone around her

— Never calming one of Liam's panic attacks with a kiss :|

— However, there are secret makeout sessions in the locker rooms when no one is around

— Honestly everyone kinda thought Liam and Valentina would get married straight out of high school????

— Being incredibly worried for Stiles when Malia turns 

— And being extremely confused when Scott later dates Malia

— Whatever, Kira and Vale were two peas in a pod

— It was important that Valentina had a girlfriend in her life after Allison died

— But she still goes to visit her grave all the time and fills her in about her days

— Liam and Valentina are constantly being compared to Scott and Allison leading Vale to be worried 25/8 about something happening

— She loves falling asleep on his chest

— The Wild Hunt made her piss her pants honestly

— Wanting to kill Gerard herself

— "This is it, after this, we are leaving Beacon Hills and never looking back."

— Valentina would kill anyone who hurt Liam

— After graduation, she is so worried about Scott

— Separation anxiety honestly

— Ultimately becoming a hunter for the hunters when all hell breaks loose and the supernatural are revealed

— "I can't say it's what Allison would've wanted, but I think Isaac would have."

— Self defense is super important so she's been learning it all this time

— And now, she's prepared for anyone who wants to stand in her way
