Palm Beach University, the notorious party school. It's a school not known for its academics, and has a terrible reputation. After several incidents, Dean Martin Pulaski decided to take matters into his own hands. Without the student's knowledge, he began enforcing the use of cops on the grounds, and started to limit the amount of parties being thrown. Many students didn't take too kindly to the presence of cops, but didn't have much of a choice.
However, things take a turn for the worst one night. What happened this one night would change the school forever. Harli Kennedy, the Queen of the Party, was hosting one of the most hyped parties ever. It was an invite only affair, not everyone could get in. Keegan Morgan, one of the most popular girls, was also invited. Though she was a partier, she was also one of the school's best academic students. That night, she and a "friend" engaged in some inappropriate behavior, but it would be something else that happened that would change everything.
After she was raped, Keegan called the police. They immediately arrived and shut the party down, much to everyone's displeasure. No one was happy about this and when word spread that it was Keegan who was the one who made the phone call, a backlash of sorts began. Going to school after that was pure torture. Harli, who was pretty good friends with Keegan, instead turned her back on her, blaming her for ruining the party. No one had any idea why the cops were called, and Keegan was far too afraid and ashamed to admit it to anyone.
By the time she met Spencer Cunningham, she was feeling alone in the world. He seemed to be the only bright light in her otherwise dark world and she told him the truth about what happened, as he was at that party as well. The two wrestled with the truth, knowing what would happen if anyone else found out, but knowing that she needed to tell the police what happened. She slowly worked up the courage to tell the Dean her story, and it was all he needed.
For now, the school is on lock-down, but no one else knows why. No parties. Of course, that doesn't mean that the rule is enforced, naturally. There are many students who are intent on still partying and having a good time. However, there is a sharp division among the students. There are those on Keegan's side, and those on Harli's side. No one wants to talk about it. It's hard trying to move close to tomorrow when no one wants to remember yesterday.
