Where's My Tent ?

Debbi and Carol plodded stoically up the path towards the camp site. The mud began to dry and cake on their naked bodies. "I've never been so dirty" moaned Debbi. "I can't wait for a shower and to get into some clean clothes" she said. "Aah, clothes ! What joy !" sighed Carol. "We'll have to put up with teasing from Diane and those girls" Debbi reminded her. "After what we've been through, that'll be a picnic and I want to get my hands on Diane anyway" threatened Carol. "But she only did what we planned to do to her remember ?" replied Debbi. "She's no worse than us really."

"No worse than us ?" exploded Carol. "What about everything else she's done before today ?"

"Well, yes, there is that I guess" agreed Debbi. "You're too soft" Carol reproached her.

There were excited cries from the girls as the two bedraggled nudies finally approached the camp site. 'There they are', 'At last', 'I was starting to get worried', 'Look at the state of them !' Aditty marched to meet them. "Where have you been and what on earth have you been doing ?" she demanded. "Where are your clothes ? We left them in the branches for you. How did you manage to miss them ? It was only supposed to take a few minutes and then we'd have a good laugh" she continued. "Boy scouts took them" Debbi mumbled sheepishly. "Scouts ?" squealed Aditty delightedly. "Did they see you ?"

"No. Well, maybe one got a glimpse" answered Carol. "But even so, what took you so long ? It's been three hours. And look at the state of you !" Aditty continued her interrogation. Carol gave her an abridged version of their misadventures, much to the amusement of all the girls. "But where's Diane ?" Carol suddenly realised. "Oh, she's gone" replied Aditty. "Gone ? But the van's still here ?"

"Yeah, but she arranged for her boyfriend to come and pick her up. She didn't want to spend another night in a tent and said you two were perfectly capable of looking after us. Though judging by the state of you I'm not so sure !" Aditty laughed. Something in these remarks triggered a sudden awareness in Debbi. "Tent ! Where's my tent ?" she cried. "Oh yeah, that" Even Aditty had to look slightly abashed. "Diane took it."

"What ?"

"She said it would serve you right for trying to trick her."

"But that was all Carol's idea" Debbi complained. "Whatever, you take the brunt of it I'm afraid" said Aditty. "She took your other clothes too !"
