Since their arrival on the cruise, Padme had been feelings slightly under the weather. She knew a lot of it had to do with the change of scenery; being on a boat lent itself to seasickness and Padme had experienced a light bout of it because of the baby. Thankfully, Lily's tea seemed to help a little and Padme found that she had enough strength to at least find a place on deck and enjoy a bit of sunshine for a while. She wasn't sure if she could make it into Italy, but she did want to. She'd wanted to see Rome too, but feeling ill had kept her from doing so. It was disappointing because she wanted to see all of it with Anakin and explore all these places that didn't exist in their world, but it couldn't be helped. Hopefully, with some fresh air, she'd feel well enough to at least attempt dinner with her husband somewhere in Florence that night.
Settling into one of the comfy lounge chairs, Padme closed her eyes and attempted to release some of the stress and tension being sick had brought on. As much as she reassured her daughter and husband that she was fine and the baby was too, she always felt a nagging sense of doubt in the back of her mind. Bruce was on board and she could certainly check in with him, but she didn't want to distract from his vacation either. That wasn't fair. No, everything was fine. It was just a bit of nausea and she could handle that. Taking a deep breath, she attempted to curl up, but the movement was difficult. Her stomach was certainly not massive, but it was difficult to sleep in certain ways because of the pressure on her hips. After a moment, she sighed and straightened up, reaching for the small cup of tea she'd brought out with her.
