Hire an attorney to prepare for a Preliminary Hearing. If Indicted, then you will need the attorney to make Discovery and try it.

If you are not convicted of DA or have any other firearm disabilities, then you can possess firearms. However that charge is probably on your record if not expunged. So you will fail a NCIC. Might want to expunge it.

You can petition the court for a protective order so he cannot have contact with you. Without more details its hard to say if that is your best solution. You should call a lawyer where you live and ask for advice.

They can let the prosecutor know but it is also up to the prosecutor whether to continue pressing charges.

If anything happened, then it will not be a False Report. Defendant needs a lawyer to prepare for a thorough Preliminary Hearing. That Charge is serious and no guilty plea should be entered. 95% of all criminal charges start in Sessions, and if not disposed, are sent to the Grand Jury.
