"She's not here," he said, turning away, shadowing the expression ghosting across his face. He didn't think it was such a bad thing - sometimes they needed each other, sometimes all they needed was time away from each other.

Besides, he'd rather have the twins around here than off by themselves or trying to find her or something.
"It's okay. I'm not ready to get anything back yet."
