The Naked Mermaid
Posted: Mon May 17, 2021 6:29 am
This was a prompt for the prize last time, and I decided to not only do it but also turn it into a longer piece. I’ll be honest I’m winging it. No idea where this will go.
Part 1
Calliope basked in the deep sea of Atlantis. Her sisters were all married off or working as they proved how much better they were than the youngest. Calliope was the sister of 4 girls which brought a lot of competition her way. From oldest to youngest there was Nadia a popular singer who often performed on the reef, Janessa a model for the Amphitrite’s Boutique, Malaysia a business woman of the Athens Emporium, and Delphine a sensational star and popular in 3 oceans.
Calliope was not so lucky. She wasn’t born with the biggest chest unlike most mermaids, in fact, she was cursed with only two tiny teardrops. Her tail was unfortunately rather small too making her only 4’5” and she was often confused for a merchild which was embarrassing to say the least. If it wasn’t for her long silver hair and her olive skin, she would have nothing to compete with her sisters.
Calliope was often teased and there was a rumor that she stuffed her seashells. Calliope dreamed of visiting the surface world and hopefully finding someone who just understood her anguish. Then, on her 18th birthday, Calliope was given the opportunity to visit the beach. She peered out to see a group of girls around a girl small in size. The smaller girl was being surrounded as the girls towered over her.
“Winnie, you’re such a loser! You call those boobs? You look like a boy without a shirt on!” One of the girls yelled.
“Please, Ava, I’ve seen boys with bigger breasts than her!” Another sneered.
“You’re right, Cammy. She looks like a BABY. BABY LITTLE WINNIE!” A third laughed.
The fourth and final girl laughed as she prodded the small girl’s body. “Let’s remove her swimsuit! Make her run nakie!”
“Great idea, Janet,” Ava said as she grabbed the straps of the girl’s one piece, pulling on the straps.
“No! Please! Don’t take my swimsuit! I don’t wanna be nakie! Please, my brother’s home. He’ll see me,” Winnie begged. “Please.”
“Aw baby Winnie’s afraid of her big brother seeing her nakie. Hahaha. Well let’s make sure she’s extra bare for him!” Cammy yelled.
Without another word, Calliope rushed out of the water, her seashells falling off and her tail turning into feet. Calliope stumbled as she touched sand, but kept going. “HEY! Leave her alone!”
The girls all turned to see the little mermaid standing by the shore, naked the day she was born. The girls laughed and Janet said. “Look Winnie, another naked girl has come to your rescue. Maybe you can kiss her and she’ll turn you back into a frog.”
The girls shoved the now naked Winnie to the ground and ran off. Calliope blushed as she approached the girl. “Are you okay? I’m Calliope. Those girls were awful,” Calliope said. “They remind me of girls back at home.”
“M-my name’s Winifred, b-but everyone calls me Winnie. W-why are you n-naked?” Winnie sniffled, rubbing her eyes.
Calliope grew scarlet. “I… um… well… I like swimming naked,” Calliope decided to answer. “It’s very… freeing.”
“W-where did you come from?” Winnie asked.
“Atlan- ahem Atlantic Street,” Calliope said.
“I’ve never heard of that… is that a street nearby?” Winnie asked.
“Um, not exactly. It’s a little out of town,” Calliope said.
“Oh, so Callie, is it alright if I call you that?” Winnie asked.
Calliope nodded. “Sure.”
“Why did you… intervene?” Winnie asked.
“Why wouldn’t I?” Calliope asked. “Besides, I understand being judged for your breast size. The girls back home always make fun of me. I’m not like the other mer-ahem women. I was cursed with bad genes I guess. Look at these, they’re tiny.”
“They’re bigger than mine,” Winnie said. “Oh um… I mean. They’re really pretty.”
“You think?” Calliope said, looking down.
Winnie nodded. “In fact you’re really pretty. I like your hair, is it dyed?”
“Um,” Calliope said. “Y-yeah. It’s dyed. Totally not my natural color. Um. I’m sorry, do you have any clothes?”
“Sorry, those girls took my only clothing,” Winnie said. “Besides why would you come to the beach without clothing?”
“Why did you?” Calliope asked.
“Well, I mean I live here just over there,” Winnie pointed. “In fact… this is supposed to be a private beach. I’m not sure you’re supposed to be here.”
“Oh?” Calliope said, looking around. “I um, didn’t realize.”
“That’s okay. Where did you park?” Winnie asked.
“Park? I don’t know where the park is,” Calliope said.
Winnie tilted her head. “What?”
Calliope laughed. “Oh um, let’s go to your place maybe I can borrow some clothes.”
“No,” Winnie said. “My brother’s home. He’ll see us.”
“Is that a bad thing?”
“I can’t just bring home a naked girl!” Winnie shrieked. “What do you want to show off for my brother?”
“I dunno, is he cute?” Calliope joked.
“Ew,” Winnie said.
“I’m kidding. I don’t really like guys anyways,” Calliope said.
“Oh,” Winnie said.
“So how old are you?” Calliope inquired.
“Physically 12 according to those girls, but I’m 19. Promise,” Winnie said. “What about you?”
“18. My birthday is today actually I was finally allowed to come to the… um… beach…” Calliope said.
“You weren’t allowed to come to the beach until now?” Winnie said, confused. “How come?”
“Uh, strict parents,” Calliope said. “Overprotective.”
“Oh,” Winnie said.
“Look, I say we grin and bear it,” Calliope said. “I mean, is it really bad if your brother sees you naked?”
“Uh, yeah,” Winnie said.
“Fine. Then I’ll go inside and you can wait while I get clothes,” Calliope said.
Winnie raised an eyebrow. “You would do that?”
“Sure, princess. I can be your prince and save the day,” Calliope said.
“Wouldn’t that make you…”
Calliope blushed. “Ahem anyways. Let’s go.”
Winnie grumbled. “Fine, but if my brother catches me, I’m killing you.”
