Ethan's POV 🎈

Danielle has been staying at our house for the past 3 days. She missed school today.

We've all been just sleeping on the couch. She's starting to feel better I think and I still haven't asked her who the guy was.

I wanted to kill this bitch who even touched her. She's such a nice person and she sure as hell doesn't deserve any negativity in her life.

The fact that rape is her biggest fear is the only reason she freaked out so badly to someone touching her like that. Sometimes, when she's sleeping and I play with her hair, she wakes up freaking out.

I want to ask her about it today.

Danielle's POV 🎈

"Where's Gray?" I asked Ethan while finishing my Nutella bread.

"He's out getting some stuff for our video. It's suppose to go up tomorrow and we still haven't recorded it."

I thought about that day when Gray came to my house, I felt so safe.

I was freaking out before and couldn't even get my tears out properly but as soon as he put me in his arms, I felt a relief and let all my tears out.

It felt more special than Ethan because Ethan always helped me out with and hugged me whenever I was down. Grayson barely ever even talks to me.

But... he still has not talked to me ever since..

"Dani, what are you thinking about?" Ethan questioned.

"N-nothing." I nervously giggled tucking my hair behind my ear.

"Oh" he replied softly, "well I wanted to ask you a question."

"Yeah?" I said back.

"Dani, who tried to.." He paused as he stared at me, "r-r-rape you" he couldn't get that word out of my mouth knowing how much I hated it.

I choked on my saliva.

"Sorry, you don't have to talk about it!" He said as he rubbed my back.

"N-no, I'm fine."

"Well Ethan, please don't be mad at me." I pleased.

"Why would I be mad at you, it's not your fault."

"Yes it is Ethan, it was Brian," I quickly got it out of my mouth.

Ethan stood up, "why was he at your house?!"

"Ethan.." I said looking down.

I think he realized he was kind of scaring me so he came and sat by me and said, "that guy didn't seem right from those text messages Danielle."

"I didn't know, I was home alone and I decided to tell him he could come over after he asked." I said.

"That day when you told me you didn't want to hang out with anyone?" He gave me a cute innocent look and my heart just melted.

Shit.

"I, Ethan I-" I didn't know what to say.
