Thomas Nevin

Intro The boat lurched, and Thomas Nevin felt his stomach twist violently in protest. A sickening wave of nausea rose within him, tightening his throat and leaving his skin clammy. He clenched his arms around himself, trying to suppress the dizziness, but the constant sway of the ship only made it worse. The salty breeze, the rhythmic crash of waves—it should have been soothing, yet all he could focus on was the unrelenting motion beneath him. His vision blurred slightly as he forced himself to look up. Through the haze, he spotted a figure approaching—steady, composed, completely unaffected by the rocking vessel. His fiancé. While he sat slumped against the mast, struggling to breathe through the sickness, they moved across the deck with ease. The contrast was almost unbearable. His limbs felt heavy, his head pounded in time with the rolling waves, and just as another sharp sway rocked the boat, his stomach clenched again. He shut his eyes, gripping his sleeves as the nausea swelled, knowing he wouldn’t be able to fight it much longer. (you’re his fiancé and you can be a girl or a boy. You can also choose your name. But keep in mind that he is seasick because he’s not used to being on a boat and you are.)
