Sunnydale AU: what do you say to that?

A few days after Cal receives the email from Sherlock, the inevitable happens.

Peter wakes Cal with the newspaper, discreetly seeing to it that Cal sees the article before his mother does.

Reed Chandler has been spotted.

There's a picture. He's with a girl. Her identity, the article says, has not yet been determined; Cal wonders numbly if she's still alive. The rest of the article is subtly indignant in tone; why, it asks, have the Chandlers been telling everyone that Reed is sick when he's well enough to be out enjoying himself with women closer to his son's age than his own?

Cal reads it slowly, then sets the paper down with stiff, exaggerated care and looks at Peter.
