Jenna's Dilemma by Melissa J. Morgan

at camp, predicting who would kiss by the end of the summer and which couples would break up. Totally boring. Oh, yeah, Stephanie is in total need of a pranking , she thought. If only because it’ll give her something else to talk about!

“Where are they?” Jenna asked, bouncing up and down on the balls of her feet.
    â€œI don’t know, but I’m getting worried,” Alex said. “3A just ran by, and they looked psyched.”
    â€œWe cannot let 3A win,” Brynn said. “We just can’t.”
    It was the middle of the scavenger hunt, and Jenna and the rest of her bunk were waiting for Val, Sarah, and Grace to return from the sports shed. At Jenna’s feet was a pillowcase full of items from the list. All they needed to complete it were a horseshoe, which Val and the others were getting, and the last bonus item, which even Jenna hadn’t figured out how to get. Not yet, anyway.
    â€œThere they are!” Natalie cried, pointing toward the edge of the woods.
    Sure enough, Valerie, Grace, and Sarah were all running toward them, red-faced and gasping for air.
    â€œWe got it! We got the last horseshoe!” Valerie whispered.
    â€œDid 3A get one?” Chelsea demanded.
    â€œYeah,” Sarah said, bending at the waist. “They got there right before us.”
    â€œNow we have to get this last item to win,” Jenna said, holding up the list. “But how are we supposed to get a picture of the top of a counselor’s head?”
    â€œWhat kind of scavenger hunt is this?” Alyssa asked.
    â€œYeah! What kind of scavenger hunt is this?” Candace echoed.
    â€œAn unfair one,” Sarah said, gesturing at a couple of counselors as they walked by. “They all saw the list beforehand, so they’re all wearing hats. We can’t get a picture of the top of their heads if they won’t take their hats off.”
    â€œWe can’t even get a picture,” Jenna pointed out. “We don’t have a camera! I have to return mine to the lab after each class.”
    â€œJessie has a camera,” Karen piped up. “A Polaroid.”
    Everyone turned to look at Jessie, who was leaning against the flagpole, staring off into space.
    â€œYou have a Polaroid camera?” Chelsea asked, nudging her.
    Jessie blinked a few times as if she’d just woken up. “Oh . . . yeah. I forgot about that.”
    Jenna and Alex exchanged a glance. What a space case! She was holding onto the one item that might help them win, and she just forgot about it?
    â€œLet’s go!” Alex said.
    Together the whole bunk ran back to their cabin. On the way they saw a bunch of boys from 2E trying to jump up and grab Nate’s hat off his head. As far as Jenna could see, they didn’t even have a camera, but it didn’t matter, anyway. Nate was dodging and weaving and ducking and running. He wasn’t letting them anywhere near his head. Back at 3C, Jessie dug through her cubby until she found the unused camera. Luckily there was a whole cartridge of film in it.
    â€œGreat. Now all we have to do is come up with a plan,” Brynn said.
    â€œWhat if we just tackle one of them?” Grace suggested breathlessly. “We could tackle Julie and hold her down and take her hat and—”
    â€œI don’t think we should gang-tackle Julie,” Alex said. “We have to live with her for the rest of the summer. But we do have to get one of them down low so we can grab their hat.”
    â€œAnd then we need to get up high so we can take the picture,” Valerie pointed out.
    â€œWe just need to get creative here, people,” Alyssa said, biting her lip.
    Get them down low and get us up high , Jenna thought.
    Suddenly she was hit with a brilliant idea. “I’ve got it, you guys! I know what to do!”

“Um . . . Jenna? Nat? Don’t you think this is kind of dangerous?” Jessie whispered as they
