Pants on Fire
by Sue Limb
It's never fun when a great summer comes to an end. Particularly when one argues with one’s boyfriend the night before school starts. Jess doesn’t know—are they broken up? Should she apologize? Too bad Jess is spending all her time in detention and can’t talk to Fred to figure it out. Jess can’t seem to stop making mistakes. When she ends up pantless in her own backyard, Jess is left to ask herself: Where did she go wrong?
