Regarding the Warnings: The Attempted Rape is only mentioned. The Abuse isn't physical, but it is emotional and psychological. The Torture isn't really explicit or probably even intentional, but I've added it just to cover my bases.
Regarding the Political/Protest category: I've tentatively added it since this story talks a lot about current issues like gaslighting, grooming and powerful men getting away with shit because they're well-liked.

The title is a lyric from Taylor Swift's song "Would've, Could've, Should've", which this story was heavily inspired by. The chapter titles are also lyrics from the same song. If you haven't heard it before, go listen to it. It's incredible.
Thank you to mcgnagallsarmy for the amazing banner. Just look at that beauty.
This was written in response to a challenge set by JustWriter. This is probably a lot angstier than what you were hoping for.

If I was some paint, did it splatter
On a promising grown man?
And if I was a child, did it matter
If you got to wash your hands? --- Taylor Swift, "Would've, Could've, Should've"
