The most important character is Melinda, over the summer she and her friends went to a party. Melinda ended up calling the police, which made everyone at the party socially reject her. She started high school with the wrong attitude, clothes and a castaway. Soon after the first couple weeks of school, Melinda comes to realize that Andy Evans who she refers to as "it" is a senior at her school. Whenever Melinda sees "it" anywhere she immediately runs away. Whenever she comes in contact with him he antagonizes her. She's all torn up and even skips full days of school. Her parents and school becomes concerned and try helping her and finding out what's wrong but she refuses to tell them anything. Melinda soon comes to find out her ex best friend Rachel now dates "it"... She wants to let her know what really happened at that party and why she did what she did. She went to Rachel to talk to her about everything, when Melinda told her she called the cops because she was sexually assaulted and it was her current boyfriend Andy. Rachel flipped out accusing Melinda of lying. Melinda felt so much better she's gotten everything off her chest even if she's not believed. I feel Melinda's the most important character because she shows bravery, courage and responsibility from having to go through being raped, starting high school with nobody and then finally working up the nerve to tell Rachel and get it off her chest.
