Drowning in The Water of You
Steven “Steve” Harrington is a small town blacksmith in Hawkins. He is set to marry Ms. Nancy Maria Wheeler, by his parent’s orders. But he dreams of more. He dreams of the ocean, and he dreams of exploring. He dreams of the pirate life.
Captain Billy Hargrove is a stern and resentful pirate who for the last year has been searching the oceans for his long lost sister Maxine.
When Billy makes port at Hawkins he meets Steve and they are both instantly enamoured by one another. Billy recognises the pining for the sea in those brown doe-eyes and offers Steve the adventure of a life-time.
They set-sail, facing the dangers of the ocean and the dangers of a love that neither of them were prepared to feel.
