Song: Aqua Lullaby

Silver:

We make a few turns in the narrow cave and come upon an opening. The body of water is the most bluest of blues I have ever seen besides the color of her eyes. And it is ridiculously clear. I wish my friends and family could see how blue this water is, it's magical that is for sure. Along the bottom it sparkles as if diamonds and other jewels line the bottom. There is a very small opening about it just enough for the sun to come through hitting the water just right to make it come to life. Light radiates from the bottom and shines right back up lighting the opening of the cave. I feel like I am stuck in one of those fantasy books back at home.

She walks over looking around as if in search for something or someone. Then she comes back to me with an expression on her face like something is not right or missing.

"What is something supposed to be in here?" I ask her.

She nods and says, "Yes...wait before you get in the water. We need to ask permission first."

"Permission from who; no one is here?" I look around to only an empty cave.

"Please...trust me...just wait all right." She turns and looks towards the body of water and then strips out of her leaf dress. The sight of her gives me chills. She is breathtaking. I look over the scars on her back and the place where her wings use to be. It's sad really to have this reminder left on her body forever. I know she has got to be hurting inside but she keeps pushing on. Even if the wings are gone she is still amazingly gorgeous.

She dives in leaving me standing there alone. I wait for her to come back up. Seconds pass then minutes and I am beginning to worry about her. I slightly jump when I see something fly above me only to realize it's just a bat or at least that is what I thought it was. I was just about to jump in after her when she pops out of the water along with five other girls.

And might I add...very beautiful girls. Each has long wavy hair with shades of purples and greens and I could be wrong but it almost looks like they are naked as well. Holy...Azurite blocks my view for a second. "I talked with them...they are allowing us to bath and rest only then we must be on our way."

"Nice!" I grin from ear to ear. "I mean okay....great." I try to fight back the smile that begs to come back. I am one lucky dude.  

I decide to keep the leaves around me and jump in, no need in getting anything started. Not sure how Azurite would respond  if I did jump in completely naked.  I dive under getting my hair wet and then come back up. The moment I come up the girls surround me and I feel them touching me all over. "What are they doing?" I flinch each time one touches me because I'm not sure what they are trying to do. I mean I don't mind them touching me really, however it just feels really weird and I really don't want her getting upset.

"Cleaning you off....don't worry...they don't mind," she giggles. I watch as two of the girls go up to her and they clean her off as well. I just might be able to get use to this.

I try to not let it bother me to much however the more they touch me my manhood gets more excited.  They are using some kind of sponge from the water and it actually feels good on my skin.

Once they are done with me I dive in again going all the way under this time and reach the bottom. Sure enough the whole bottom layer is covered in jewels...rare gems that many people are never able to set their eyes on. If only I can get one or two to take back home to show them how amazing this place really is.

I feel something brush up against me and nearly jump out of my skin to see this huge colorful fin. I swim back up to the top to see the girls are all still swimming around close by. "Did you enjoy seeing the rare beauty of the earth?" the one girl asks.

"Yes...it's amazing down there but you ladies are more amazing." I look down seeing the bottom sparkle upward in shiny rays of lights, however their massive fins are just as stunning. I just don't believe what I am seeing.

Another girl swims over towards me and smiles. "Why are we amazing...we are only the fin beings." She brushes  her hgv and along my upper arm.

"That's just it...you are amazing. In my world we don't have beings like you." I wish I could take a picture in this moment because the guys back at home would not believe me if I told them. I'm telling you it like a page right out of one of those fantasy books. I always thought people just made up those stories, people with crazy imaginations but I was so wrong because I watch them with my own two eyes.

They all stop and look at each other and giggle. The one jumps up out of the water and comes back down splashing her huge bluish purple fin behind her. They all swim around me and reach out to touch my body more, this time inspecting me more closely.  This time I feel they are getting too close and I start to get a little nervous.

"You came with Azurite...she assures us that you will not harm us."

I look at Azurite and back at them as they continue to swim near me. "No...I will not harm you." I smile kind of awkwardly.

"Good...now you two should get some rest before moving on." The one turns to look at Azurite. "You may sleep here but back the other way closer to the opening. We don't want the others to wake up and hear you."

"Thank you Triteia...for helping us. I won't tell anyone of this," Azurite says cheerfully and hugs her.

"You better not...father will not be happy knowing that we helped you out in any way." She reaches over and kisses Azurite on the cheek. "I can't believe Malachite took your wings like that I would die if my father took my fin."

Azurite looks down into the water almost ashamed of what happened to her. She look back up at her and kisses her cheek back and then she kisses all the other mermaids before getting out of the water. She looks at me and I let them all kiss me as well on the cheek  because I think that is a custom thing and then I get out of the water. I turn to thank them for the offer and they are all gone the only thing left to see is the dazzling ground underneath the water.

I turn around to see Azurite smiling at me. "Come on we can rest back up towards the front." I follow her out and we find a place to lay down to rest. I sit down and lean my back up against the cave wall and she sits down beside me.

"Did I really just swim with mermaids; how is that possible?"

"Yes...the mermaids as your beings call them...here they are the fin beings. I have been friends with them for a very long time. They can keep a secret. No one will know we are here."

"What about the trees...they had to see us come in here?"

"Yes but they don't know what goes on in the caves." She winks in my direction.  "I take it you like the fin beings."

"They are beautiful...but nothing compares to you." My hand finds her cheek and I pull her into me so that my lips can taste her's. She is so freaking enchanting even without her wings she is the most amazing thing I have ever laid eyes on.
