"I don't know yet."

"I'm staying with a friend right now but he doesn't want Bella knowing where he lives because she scares him," says Miles. "And none of us has a phone."

Permalink

"I could just tell you where I live but the place is not designed to be a pleasant vampire hangout."

Permalink

"I can imagine it wouldn't be."

Permalink

"Yeah. Loiter around the school? I'll have to get my car from there anyway."

Permalink

"We can loiter! I'm becoming very proficient at loitering."

Permalink

"Congratulations!"

He laughs and bows theatrically.

And presently a cop car rolls up and Bella converses with the occupant and waves to the vampire twins and hops in the passenger seat.

Permalink

And the vampire twins traipse off to presumably do vampire twin things perhaps involving loitering.

When they're well out of earshot:

"Discovering your latent bisexuality?"
Permalink

"You knew about that?"

Permalink

"Actually no. Obvious only in retrospect. You're having a bit of an existential crisis over it."

Permalink

"What a pair we make," he snorts. "I'm going to laugh so hard over this once I have my soul back."

Permalink

"Yes. So, where is an appropriate location for me to activate your soul-self so he can fling himself on you and weep?"

Permalink

"Zeke's place will probably do."

Permalink
At Zeke's place:

"Uh. Hi?"
Permalink

"This is my twin brother Mark, who is coincidentally also here and coincidentally also a vampire."

Permalink

"We've been postponing our tearful reunion so we could rescue Bella. She got kidnapped. She's fine now. Is your crypt a good place for tearful reunions or should we go somewhere else?"

Permalink

"Nah, go for it, I don't mind," says Zeke.

Permalink

So they go inside and Mark becomes Miles and there is a lot of hugging and crying. Mark-as-soulful-Miles does the majority of the crying, but soulless-Miles is not immune.

Permalink

Meanwhile, Bella rests, eats most of a pizza, recovers most of the way, finds that she cannot raise Giles, and sets her dad to tracking the "magic teacher" with police resources after he drops her off to get her car (and check the library for Giles, but nothing doing).

Permalink

The Naismith twins eventually make their way to the school to loiter there.

She's waiting by her car. "Either of you any good at detective work?"
