Lee was discharged from the hospital a few days after that. She had Brit come and pick her up. They drove from Los Angeles to Pasadena because Lee couldn't stand being in the same room as Joe.

When they got to Brits house, Lee was greeted by hugs from her older sisters Addison and Hailey. Cecile and Hannah Rose walked out of the house to greet their visitor. Addison and Hailey showed Lee her room and left to do homework.

Lee heard a soft knock on the door. "Come in." she said. The door slowly opened and in walked Cecile. She softly closed the door behind her and sat down on of bed. "Hey honey. How ya holdin' up?" "I'm about as good as you think." "I' sorry this happening to you." "It's fine. I just wish Joe would stop being so pissed. I'm not trying to be selfish but he acts like I'm completely unaffected by this." "Well, have you tried to look at things from his perspective?" "hat do you mean?" "I mean," she said. Her voice soothing Lee, "I mean-" 

Addison walked in cutting her mother off. "Lee someone is here to see you." She looked up and saw her mom and sister, "Oh, did I interrupt something?" "Not at all dear." Lee got up walked down down stairs. When she arrived she was greeted by the one person she didn't want.

"Hey." Joe said. "What the hell are you doing here?" "Brit told me you were here. I just wanna talk to you fro a second about what happened the other day." "Oh, you mean when you basically said you were gonna have me get an abortion and not tell me about it?" "I wasn't going to do that." "Then what were you gonna do Joe. Honestly." "I don't know. I'm sorry that I didn't tell you but you have to hear my out. You have always been my favorite person in the world and I just wish you could have had a more normal life. And t just makes me so pissed that one little prick ruined your life."

Lee and Joe talked for a little while longer and Lee finally forgave Joe. "Oh and one last thing," Joe said, "Noah and Finn are worried out of their minds. SO call them or something." "Why don't I just talk to them in person?" "What do you mean?" said Joe with a confused look. "I'm coming home." 

After repacking, Lee was ready to go back to LA. She was giving her good bye hugs and kisses when Addison felt the need to say, "So, is Chaz single now?" Lee turned around and slapped her sister, "Why the hell did you do that Lee!" "You know what, if you want to date a rapist, good for you. But, you're gonna have to wait a good 5 years before you'll get to talk to him. Just don't come crying to me when he breaks your heart."

And with that, Lee walked out and didn't dare turn back. Joe got in the car and Lee said, "Can I drive?" "Are you crazy, you are 14." "I just slapped your least favorite sister." Joe rolled his eyes and said, "You can drive to the gas station a mile away but then I'm taking over." They sang Panic! at the Disco and My Chemical Romance. But then Lee got an idea and wrote the final song of her EP.
