Hadrian sat up quickly, it took him a moment to remember where he was.

The man blindly stumbled out of the bed, tripping as he went up the stairs. He opened the bedroom door, moonlight flooded into the dark room.

He wasn't sure why he woke up. A drop of water landed on his forehead, more droplets started to fall.

"Stand in the rain a lot?" Hadrian turned, reaching for his dagger. He let out a sigh of relief, it was just a crew member.

"No, I don't." The crew member was fairly tall with a strong build, he appeared more animal than human. His eyes had an eerie glow to them, his face was marred by scars.

"Then what are you doing?"

"Nothing that should concern you." The man let out an irritated sigh.

"You don't have to be so defensive, Riddle just wants me to make sure that you're safe. He said that I'm supposed to be your bodyguard or something. It's odd though. You managed to stay alive for who the hell knows how long, but he still treats you like a delicate flower." Harry cocked his head.

"He trusts you then. I suppose that you're not too horrible if Riddle trusts you." The man shrugged.

"Go back inside, Riddle will maroon me if you get sick. Besides, he's afraid of thunder. He'll deny it, but he needs to be comforted." Hadrian grinned and held out his hand.

"Hadrian Potter." The man took it, he had a strong grip.

"Fenir Greyback." The shorter male dipped his head and walked back to the captain's cabin.

Hadrian took of his damp clothes before crawling into bed. He unconsciously moved closer to the warmth of Tom.

The soft pitter patter of rain was soothing. Hadrian wasn't bothered by storms, the thunder didn't scare him. He was honestly shocked that it scared Tom, then again, Greyback might have lied to him.

Riddle sat up, hearing the boom of thunder. Greyback wasn't lying.

"Are you ok?" Hadrian questioned, carefully clasping their hands together. Tom nodded shakily after a moment.

"Y-yes, I'm just not fond of loud noises."

"Go back to sleep, I'll protect you." Tom scoffed.

"You protect me? Oh please. I don't need protecting from you!" Hadrian chuckled and patted his arm.

"I was joking."

"Oh." The younger man kissed Tom's cheek and laid down. Tom soon followed suit. "Why is your hair wet?"

"I went outside for a few minutes."

"Ah, well goodnight." Hadrian smiled into Riddle's chest.

"Night."
