Summary
Home, to Ava, is flannel-backed chairs and worn quilts and lacy placemats and a rocking chair they find abandoned on the side of the road.
Home, to Beatrice, is Ava’s hand in her own as she drags Beatrice through the kitschy home store four towns over and Ava’s shout of triumph when she finds a matching set of salt and pepper shakers and Ava’s waggling eyebrows when they buy the bed that she (again) calls ours.
(Six days in Switzerland, and then a few more afterwards.)

Summary
"And you're telling me this now because?" It's like playing fill in the blanks, she’s coaxing the answers out; Gigi hates this game.
"Because I saw your boxes again."

Summary
"What you are is beautiful."
It was the first time Beatrice had heard such words spoken to her.
And for so many years, she thought it would be the last.
But time was a strange thing. And as Beatrice would eventually come to learn, moved slowly when one had the potential to live until time itself crumbled.
And as she moved with time, she clung to those words. Her name was Melanie, Beatrice learned later, and she clung to her for as long as she could.
Beatrice had resigned herself to never hearing them again, not from another's lips, and certainly not in her dreams.
Vampires, Beatrice realised quickly, didn't dream.
She never could have known that one day, more than five hundred years later, she would hear those words again.
Or how those five simple words from one specific girl would change her entire world.
