Chapter 1: The Day After
Maria Wong placed her books in her locker and sighed as she brushed back a strand of black hair from her face. The Party last night was wild. Too bad Sharon was ill and couldn't come. Connor wasn't much of any company since she couldn't find for the rest of the night after only twenty-five minutes of being at the party.
"Hey Maria," Sharon Spitz said from behind her best friend, "how was the party?" she asked and looked a bit disappointed.
"It was awesome!" Maria cried happily, "I mean it was okay," she added when she saw Sharon's face.
"Where's Connor?" Sharon asked.
"Don't know," Maria responded, "he even disappeared at the party last night."
"That's not like him," Sharon said sounding concerned.
"Sharon!" Alden cried suddenly and Sharon saw the love of her life coming towards her and quickly brushed back her blonde hair with her hand.
"Hi," Sharon said excitedly, "what's wrong?" she asked when she noticed that Alden looked upset.
"It's Connor," Alden said, "he's been arrested," he announced.
"What!" Sharon and Maria screamed in unison.
"That's not the worst part," Brock Leighton; Alden's best friend, said seriously as he appeared not far from Alden, "it's what he's arrested for," he told them.
"Conner slept over at my house along with Brock," Alden started to explain, "the police came at 5:30am and arrested Connor as a suspect for rape," he whispered and Sharon and Maria became dead silence.
"You're kidding," Maria said, "right?"
"No," Alden said shaking his head, "and you wouldn't believe who's the victim," he added.
"Well who is it?" Sharon demanded.
"It's Nina," Brock told them, "I over heard one of the officers taking on his walkie talkie."
Sharon and Maria stood there totally dumbfounded. Conner a rapist?
