Unwanted - Danielle and Stefania ON HOLD

6

(btw the medical stuff with the baby is completely made up 😂)

izzie's POV

"You what?"

"He raped me, and I got pregnant" I sigh as tears form, as I had never been able to say it out loud to anyone before

"Iz" she sighs

"I carried until 15 weeks and had an abortion, they managed to collect DNA and from that, they managed to find the guy who did it"

"You carried for 15 weeks?"

"Yeah, I could've gotten rid of it sooner, but they wouldn't have been able to get any DNA and I wanted him locked up, so I pushed through"

"Only Amy knows?" she asks, still in shock

"Yes, she was the one that realised I was missing because I hadn't called for an ambulance in 3 weeks"

"Your parents didn't know?"

"I live in a group home; you don't really exist to the people there"

"I didn't know that"

"You didn't ask"

"Thank you for telling me Iz, I honestly didn't think you would"

"Neither did I, you can tell stef if you want, I know she basically knows everything about you" I laugh slightly

"Not everything" she sighs

"Well, nobody ever knows everything"

"She knows my dad abused me," she says, "but she doesn't know that he raped me," she says, whispering the last part

"You haven't told her?" I ask, not wanting to bring too much attention to it

"I haven't told anybody, not one person knows except my sister"

"Did he do it to her too?"

"yeah"

"I'm surprised stef doesn't know, you don't seem like the person who can keep a secret" I laugh, trying to lighten the mood

"I'm not, I literally blurt everything out, especially to stef, but this is the one thing that I'm scared of her knowing"

"You don't know how she'll react?"

"yeah" she sighs

"Well then tell her about me and see how she reacts to that, then you'll be able to gauge a reaction"

"So, you want me to use what happened to you to help me?" she laughs

"Yeah, I couldn't care less, I mean, I would prefer it if people didn't know obviously but it's not a dirty word. I was raped by a guy who had nothing better to do with his life." I state, "he's the one that should be ashamed not me"

"Can I ask you something?"

"yeah"

"Is that where the PTSD is from?"

"Partly, I have so much PTSD it's crazy. I have it from being raped, being abused, and then from my knee dislocating which is a weird one"

"Why is it weird"

"Because it's random, my knees have always been the most common dislocation and then a few years ago I started being able to feel it dislocating when it wasn't. then it turned into nightmares, then it was physical pain, now I can't go down the stairs without literally praying it's not going to go. I mean, I will be walking and then suddenly I can see a version of myself on the floor in front of me and I can feel my knee going. It's the worst pain I've ever felt"
