Serena's Pov ♤
I haven't left my house in a week since what happened. That night Iris told me everything and wouldn't stop apologizing and saying it was all her fault. I told her it was fine and it wasn't her fault because it isn't. The way she grew up and how isn't her fault and she shouldn't have had to share that with me if she didn't want to.
Since that night I've been too scared to leave my room. I don't like people even coming into my room anymore. I can't look at myself in the mirror without thinking of what I had done. I just can't stop thinking about it. Like it was self-defense, right? And he deserved it...right?
I guess I haven't been taking care of myself. I can't remember the last time I got out of bed. I can't sleep, eat, or do any basic human fucking need. And I hate myself for it. I should be able to do simple tasks, it's just hard. The only time I let anyone into my room, well not really, is when Dani is dropping off my homework and then when she comes and picks it up.
I guess it's because I don't want her to see me like this. Which is stupid because she's seen me at my worst, but what if I tell her what happened and she looks at me like I'm a monster. I guess I am though, but I'm not sure what someone else would've done in that situation.
————3:45 pm————
"Serena, please let me in," I could hear Dani's muffled voice from outside the door.
"Just drop the work off," I said messing with the stuffed animals on my bed.
"But it's new material and I don't want you to get confused," she tells me.
"I don't want to get you sick," I lied to her.
"S, I literally do not give a fuck about getting sick. I just want to see you and make sure you're ok. I want to talk to you, that's it," she said letting out a sigh at the end.
"We're talking right now," I pointed out.
"Fine, whatever," she said as I heard her setting down the books in front of my door. I regretted my decision immediately though. I missed her too. I wanted to see her as well. So I got up from my bed and walked over to my door. I took in a deep breath before opening the door and seeing her standing there. I don't really know what came over me, but I just started crying.
"Hey, hey. Are you ok?" she asked pulling me into a tight hug, brushing her fingers through my hair. I couldn't get any words out. "Ok come on let's go back in," she told me moving both of back into the room shutting the door behind us. "What's going on? I don't know if I can help but I'll try and I'll listen to you," she told me as I nodded my head into her arm before sitting up.
I just kinda spilled everything that had happened. And she didn't freak out or anything. She just nodded her head and brought me into another hug. "God I'm so sorry. You didn't deserve for that to happen to you. I wish I would've known sooner so I could've helped you deal with this. But I understand why you didn't tell me."
"I just don't know what to do. I'm scared to leave my house and run into him. Because what I did was...," I started saying but I couldn't even finish the sentence.
"You did what you had to do to get out of there," Dani told me grabbing my hand. "And I'm glad you did because I don't know what I would've done without you," she told me laying her head on my shoulder.
"Can you spend the night?" I asked her.
"Yeah of course," she said nodding her head.

Dani took the rest of the day to basically take care of me. It didn't matter how many times I said I was fine she never left. She helped me take care of myself and clean my room back up.
She taught me how to do everything I was missing in school and told me about stuff I had missed, social wise.
"So yeah I had my first kiss!" Dani told me with a big smile coming across her face.
"What?? And I missed it!! I can't believe this," I replied in shock. "Who was it?" I asked her wanting to know more with a big smile across my face as well.
"I don't know if they're fine with anyone else knowing," she tells me and I just nod my head.
"Ok fine, but did you like it? How was it? Where, when?"
"It really was perfect. It was behind the football stands before lunch. Like it wasn't awkward at all. This sounds cheesy but like it was just so amazing."
"I'm so happy for you!" I practically yelled tumbling on top of her giving her the biggest hug.
