A week and a half later Frankie and Peter were in the Moons house alone...
"Don't Pete" Frankie sighed, pushing his hand away from the hem of her top
"Come on babe, you know you want to" he whispered into her ear, kissing her neck gently
"No I don't, get off me Peter" she proclaimed, trying to push him away
Frankie couldn't do anything, Peter was too strong for her and she didn't know what she could do, she couldn't fight, she couldn't push him off her, she had been raped and as soon as her ordeal was over, Anthony walked through the door, Peter zipping up his flies abruptly, Frankie pulling her leggings up as he dumped some stuff in the hallway and greeted them...
"Everything okay?" he asked as he peaked his head around the living room door
"Fine thanks, I've gotta go" Peter replied, kissing Frankie's cheek and saying his goodbyes
As the door slammed shut Frankie burst into tears, she didn't know that Anthony was stood there...
"You don't have to talk to me you know, I can get Whitney if you'd rather?" Anthony questioned
"Please" she replied, wiping her eyes with the arm of her sleeve
"I'll be right back" he informed her, kissing her hair gently and leaving the house
He returned moments later with a worried Whitney who ran into the living room and pulled Frankie into her embrace...
"What did he do to you babe?" she asked, stroking her hair gently
"He, he, he, raped me" she admitted, the sobs wracking her body as she admitted what he'd done
"That little scrote, the next time I see him" she proclaimed
"No, no, just leave it, please" she begged, looking up at Whitney
"Okay, but you know your brothers won't when they find out, which they're going to" she informed her
Frankie nodded. Fifteen minutes later after calming Frankie down and explaining to her that they needed to call the police she walked into the kitchen and informed Anthony on what had happened...
"That little, I'm gonna kill him" he exclaimed
Whitney stood in the doorway so he couldn't get past...
"Do you really think that's what Frankie wants? She wants her big brother, I'll phone the police" she stated, ushering for him to go to Frankie
He nodded and kissed her lips gently but passionately and left the room, heading into the living room to comfort his sister. Whitney sighed and pulled out her phone, dialling 999...
"Hi, I'd like to report a rape please, 23 Albert Square, Walford, okay, thank you" she sighed, hanging up the phone
The police arrived ten minutes after Whitney had reported the rape, the policewoman who was looking after Frankie had said Whitney could go...
"Can my brother come too?" Frankie asked as they were about to leave the house
"Of course he can, whatever makes you feel comfortable" the policewoman replied, smiling reassuringly as they stepped out of the house
When they arrived at the police station Whitney and Anthony were asked to wait outside whilst Frankie was taken for examination and an in depth interview...
"What's taking so long?" Anthony proclaimed as he paced the floor
"Babe they have to be thorough, sit down and let them do their job yea?" Whitney suggested, taking his hand and pulling him down
Half an hour later Frankie left the room and told them she was allowed to go home...
"What're they doing about Peter?" Anthony asked as they were about to leave
"They're coming to the Square to arrest him" she informed them as they left
"Good, if I see him looking smug I swear to God I won't be responsible for my actions" he exclaimed, his fists clenching
Whitney and Frankie exchanged a worried look and Frankie walked off in front whilst Whitney took Anthony's hand in hers, his relaxing immediately...
"I'm sorry" he sighed "how could someone do that though?"
"He's disgusting and I'm sorry I let him anywhere near your sister" Whitney stated
"Don't you be sorry, you've got nothing to be sorry for, you didn't know he was gonna be like this" he replied, wiping her tears away
"What're you going to tell Tyler and your Dad?" she questioned, looking up at him
"I don't know yet, I'm going to have to tell them the truth aren't I?" he asked, raising an eyebrow
"It's going to be hard but yea you are, Frankie's going to need you there with her" she informed him
He nodded and they continued their walk to the Square, they said their goodbyes to Whitney and headed inside...
"Where've you two been? Do you have any idea how late it is?" Eddie proclaimed as Frankie and Anthony walked indoors
"You go up to bed, I'll bring you a hot chocolate" Anthony informed Frankie, motioning for her to go up the stairs
"What's going on?" Eddie asked, walking into the living room after Anthony
Anthony sat on the sofa and ran his hands through his hair...
"Frankie was raped, right here" Anthony admitted, motioning to the sofa
"What? By who? By that Peter Beale?" Eddie exclaimed angrily
"Yes Dad but don't fly off the handle, we've been at the police station and the cops are arresting him" Anthony informed him
"Good, how's your sister?" he questioned
"She's okay, a bit fragile but it's to be expected, she's got Whitney and us though" he replied, smiling
"Good, you get off to bed and I'll take Frankie up a hot chocolate" he informed him, motioning for him to go upstairs
