It's been six months already and you are actually having fun. The guys were really bummed out when you joined, even to the part of aggression. But soon enough you proved them wrong. Even though you couldn't row for shit... You turned out to be a natural Coxswain. With some minor adjustments you could use the rudder and you had a solid grasp of tempo. Probably because you played the violin at an early age to pass the time.
Most guys enjoyed being with you in the boat. They didn't miss the fact that you are a lot lighter than an average coxswain. Most of the time the boat your in wins the friendly races.

So you got up and strapped in right as the others where coming in too. Of course most ran toward the back. But one of the guys saw you, glanced to the back, shrugged and sat down right next to you.
