Thee keeps on crying until eventually she stops. "Can you tell everyone what happened?" Steve asks. "Everyone is really confused." Steve rubs Thee's back and kisses her head.

"Y-yeah." Thee says. "Where'd your shirt go?" She asks.

Steve chuckles. "Don't worry about it." Steve helps her walk out to the couch.

"Oh Thee, you're bleeding." Steve says. He takes a towel from the kitchen and puts it over Thee's cut.

"Steve, you need to tame that jungle." Dustin says, referring to how hairy Steve's upper body is.

"But I dig it." Thee says. Smiling a little.

"See Henderson? I was right." Steve says.

Thee sits next to shirtless Steve on the couch and she holds onto his arm.

"So umm, if you don't know, Vecna is my half brother." Thee says. She explains the rest and ends up crying while explaining. "He killed my mom and he is Vecna and he was the start of everything he is a reason that the lab was a whole thing and he basically rules the upside down." Thee says.

Vecna starts laughing. "And you think I care?" He asks. "I'm going to make you feel some of the pain that our mother felt. You should have been an abomination."

Thee looks at Vecna with sadness in her eyes. Tears fall down her cheeks.

"You are just a traumatized girl that has no one." Vecna says.

It keeps replaying in Thee's head. Abomination. Traumatized. No one.

Everybody walks to the table across the room to think of a plan. Thee and Steve are still on the couch.

"Thee." Steve says, gently putting his hand on her cheek to make her look at him. "What are you thinking about? You look sad."

"What he said to me." Thee says. "Abomination. Traumatized. No one." Thee says.

Steve hugs Thee. "Come here, you are not an Abomination. So what you're traumatized? Big deal. You'll get through it. And you have so many people Thee."

"My whole biological family is dead besides my half brother." Thee says.

"Thee, family isn't always biological. You have me, you have El, you have everyone in this trailer right now." Steve says.

"But Hopper, the person that I called Dad, is gone." Thee says. "He was a father to me."

"Thee, he's still here." Steve says. He points to Thee's heart. "In there."

Thee nods. "And I also have you right here next to me." She says. She smiles and kisses Steve. "I love you Steve."

"I love you too Thee." Steve says. He kisses her. Thee snuggles into his bare, warm chest. Steve puts his arm around her.

Thee starts to fall asleep. Steve runs his hand over her head and puts a blanket over them. "I love you Thee. Get some rest."

"I will Steve." Thee says. She falls asleep.

"I can grab her some of her old clothes." Eddie says. He goes and grabs one of Thee's old T-shirts and a pair of sweatpants and Steve's old sweatshirt.

Steve carries Thee and her clothes into her old room and dresses her into her clothes and replaced the bandages wrapped on her as she's still asleep.

"She looks so peaceful." Steve says to himself. He changes into fresh clothes and he kisses Thee on the forehead before he leaves the room, but he leaves the door open.
