Story Eight The most embarrassing moment of my life occurred last summer and there was nothing I could do about it! During the recent summer holidays I went to the beach on many occasions but on this particular occasion it was a real family affair. Mum's sister and her family were coming and like the other occasions, lots of my friends from school were also going to be at the beach as well. When my Aunt Sue and my cousins, 13 year old Liz and 11 year old Robby arrive my aunt commented, "Well haven't you grown, why you're taller than your brother". The trouble was she was not referring to me but to my step brother Alex. This statement was unfortunately very true, as over the last 12 months he had shot past me in height and had begun tormenting me about the fact, as of course any `good' brother would do. He was 13 _ and I was just over a year older. Mum didn't help my self image and greatly embarrassed me in front of my aunty and cousins by replying, " Yes hasn't he grown, he's really started developing, unlike Ben who's still waiting to start puberty". Now why do mums have to say things like that? Well to say I blushed as my private secrets were publicly discussed was an understatement! Even Alex looked a little embarrassed but noting compared to how I felt! Little did I know that within hours a lot more of my private secrets would be revealed than just my mum talking about me! A couple of hours later I was with some of my friends and Alex, chatting up Sarah, Rachelle and Kate, three girls from school on the beach. Rachelle in particular was the envy of most girls at school due to her well developed breasts which attracted many more boys to her than seemed to be attracted to the other girls. I was certainly attracted to them as was my step brother. I had been swimming earlier and was wearing a towel wrapped around my board shorts. I didn't notice some of my other friends sneak up on me whilst all my attention was focused on Rachelle, or should I confess her breasts!!!! A couple of the guys grabbed me then the others raced over to join in the fun. With 6 of them I had little hope of struggling loose though I tried, rest assured. Four of them held my arms and feet and lifted me up whilst the other two who included my step brother Alex removed my towel from around my waist without too much trouble. Luke who was holding one of my arms and Rachelle joked about my lack of pit hairs which made me start to blush real bad; I could feel the heat radiating from my face. My board shorts though were a problem, and my savior. Still being wet and tightly tied at the waist they wouldn't slip down when Jono, Dean and Alex tried to lower them. Eventually Drew tried to undo the waist cord, but this distracted the attention of my captors and with a huge twist and jerk I broke their grip and raced down into the water. `Beat them' I thought. No way was I going to get pantsed in public! I stayed in the water and when the guys attempted to come in after me I deliberately swam out into deeper water so as not to give them the chance to capture me and drag me back onto the beach or to pants me there and then on the spot in the water. What happened next I don't really remember? The guys were waving at me like they were trying to warn me but I took their antics as a means to trick me into coming closer to them, then whoosh a wave hit me. I remember the air being forced out of my lungs, my swimmers sliding off my hips and a shot of fear running through me. The next I knew I was on the beach, coughing and spluttering, the lifeguard performing resuscitation on me. When I opened my eyes the life guard was leaning over me but my friends and family were all standing around me looking concerned. It took a few seconds to gain my senses but when I did I realised I was naked. The wave had stripped me of my swimmers. I was lying naked on the beach in front of girls I knew from school, my cousins and my family. Instantly I went red in the face with embarrassment and most of the guys and gals who up till that time had looked worried suddenly burst into a smile at my embarrassment and humiliating situation. I was naked, totally exposed before people I knew and some total strangers as well. It was like my worst nightmare come true! Yep, mum was right when she said I hadn't started puberty at all. I was still preadolescent in appearance down there where it really counts for a guy. I had no pubic hair on my genitals except for some fine peach fuzz similar to that growing on my belly, arms and legs and my penis and testicles are still childlike in proportion. To make things worse, I was shrunken even smaller than normal as I had just been pulled from the cold water. My cousin Liz was the first to say anything, making a derogatory remark about my puny genital size and hairless state to Alex who was standing next to her, ending her comment with a statement about needing a magnifying glass. Alex my step brother of course used this opportunity to boast about his own size compared to my meager resources, whilst at the same time I thought I saw Sarah take a picture or a short movie on her cell phone and then move away to hide it so she wouldn't get caught. Now that everyone has seen my most private secrets exposed I guess I will definitely be the little brother to my step brother Alex, even if he is 14 months younger than me, till I finally start puberty! The End
