Chapter 16:

Finn can't believe what he is hearing, he has heard so many stories about Phoebe. Steffy could go on for ever with stories about her sister and how much she missed her. "Phoebe Forrester? Steffy Forrester's sister?"

Phoebe's eyes light up at the sound of her sister's name, "Yes! You know my sister?!"

Finn smiles, "Yes, I've been seeing her for a few months." Phoebe smiles at this news, Finn continues as he fishes his phone out of his pocket, "I'm going to call her right now."

After everything that she has been through this is the first good news she has heard in years.

Steffy is at home playing with Kelly when she hears her phone ring, she looks at her phone and sees Finn's name. She smiles to herself as she answers the phone, "Hey you, I was just thinking about you."

Finn smiles, "That's always good to hear. I have some huge news for you. I need for you to call your parents and Thomas and have everyone meet me at the hospital immediately, and don't worry, there is nothing wrong. This is happy news, I cannot stress that enough."

"Ok," Steffy says confused, "I'll see if Hope and Liam can take Kelly for a few, I'll be there shortly."

Later at the hospital, officer Smith is finishing up his statement from Phoebe. He assures her this monster will be arrested immediately and they will make sure she has security on her for a while. Finn comes back in the room with an unknowing Steffy, Thomas, Taylor, and Ridge in tow. The minute they walk in and lay eyes on Phoebe the room errupts with confusion and pure delight and excitement. Phoebe's entire family surrounds her and embraces her. Steffy puts her hands on Phoebe's cheeks, "How is this possible!"

Phoebe smiles ear to ear, "It's a long story."

After the long harrowing tale of her kidnapping and escape her family is in tears. "Oh honey," Taylor says with tears in her eyes, "I'm so sorry this happened to you. I'll call around to get you in touch with the best therapist."

"Thanks Mom." Phoebe says as she leans her head on her mom's shoulders. "You all are going to have to fill me in on everything that has happened."

"Well, that may take some time." Thomas says. "We'll have plenty of time to catch you up."

"Your brother's right," Ridge says, "Right now why don't we get you to someone's home and get you a shower and hot meal and warm bed."

"Please come stay with me tonight," Steffy says taking Phoebe's hand, "Or maybe forever." The sister's giggle together.

"I would love nothing more."

"Then we can introduce you to Douglas and Kelly." Thomas says.

"Who are they?"

Thomas and Steffy share a smile. Steffy turns back to her sister, "Douglas is Thomas' son and Kelly is my daughter."

Phoebe's jaw drops, "I'm an auntie! This day just keeps getting better and better. Can we go now? I just want to shower and get into something comfy."

Everyone stands up to leave, Finn walks over to Steffy, "I'm going to finish up some paperwork, do you still want me to come over tonight? Or do you want just family time."

"Oh no," Steffy says as she wraps her arms around his neck, "I definately want you to come over tonight." She gives him a kiss and heads home with her family.
