chapter 2

As the following morning comes many passengers begin to wake up either going out on deck to watch the beautiful sunrise on the ocean or getting ready to go to breakfast. In one of the royal cabins, a small child ran into one of the rooms and started jumping up and down shouting "uncle Harry, uncle Harry wake up" startling the body in the bed awake, with a groan then a mischievous smirk Hadrian grabbed Teddy around the waist, pulled him onto the bed and started tickling him. All that commotion bought the others into the room and they watched from the door with amused smiles.

"good morning Hadrian" Hermione said when he stopped tickling Teddy.

"good morning Mione, Ron, now what was that lovely wake-up call for" Hadrian smiled at them then turned to Teddy who was giggling madly. "you were the only one left awake uncle Harry we need to meet the others for breakfast" he exclaimed whilst jumping from the bed and running out the room.

" Ron and dad have already left to get breakfast, so we waited for you to wake up but Teddy got impatient" Hermione softly said giggling a little. " give me 15 minutes and we'll go and meet the others" he smiled and walked into the bathroom.

15 minutes later the three of them were walking towards the dining hall and they are called over by Draco and they see that everyone else is already there. " good morning everyone" Hadrian says whilst taking the empty seat next to tom and Lucius and gets several 'good mornings' and 'hellos'. For the rest of the day they all relax and explore round the cruise or go to the swimming pool.

As evening comes and it starts to get darker and darker they all go to their cabins to get ready for the evening party for new years and a few hours later everyone starts making their way to the grand ballroom for the new years event. Hadrian's and Severus's group all meet at the entrance and start making their way in. Hadrian is dressed in a pair of black jeans with an emerald long sleeved button up shirt like Ron and Robert only they are wearing black slacks and a striped t shirt and the latter is wearing a white long sleeved button up shirt, Hermione is wearing a pair of dark blue skinny jeans and an off the shoulder red silk top and Teddy is wearing blue trousers with a light blue button up shirt. Narcissa is wearing a beautiful ankle length chiffon evening gown with embroidery, Severus is wearing a grey tux with a black shirt, Lucius, Draco and Tom are also wearing tuxes but with different shirts and white shirt, dark grey and a crimson shirt.

" come on guys let's go find a table and settle down" Hadrian says and they all make their way to a table just in time for the captain to make a speech. " the ocean is always a place of rebirth, since man first emerged from the water it has been a chance to start anew, Poseidon was the god of the sea he made his home on the ocean floor a palace of coral and gems so what better way to celebrate than on a boat names after himself may we have smooth sailing for this year and all the years to come" he passionately says whilst everyone cheers or claps. " ladies and gentleman may I introduce the beautiful Gloria" he says as she walks on the stage to start singing, and a lot of people start dancing and eating.

After that Tom, Robert and Severus go up the top to play poker Ron and Hermione go to the nightclub on the ship with Draco and Lucius and Narcissa go to the dance floor. Hadrian and Teddy stay at the table to eat first. After a while Teddy wanders off when Hadrian turns to talk to the captain and he bumps into Tom making his Nintendo fall out his hands and the poker chips to fall on the floor. " hey Teddy are you alright?" he softly asks as he picks up the Nintendo " yeah, I'm sorry , how much for game" he jokingly says whilst picking up some chips " I don't know how much is it worth to you?" Tom smirks " I'm guessing those didn't fall right in front of you" Hadrian jokes an he walks up to them " I wasn't looking where I was going" Teddy sheepishly says to him.

" sorry about that Tom" he says whilst helping them pick up the chips and stand up " that's alright no problem" Tom smiles then smirks as Hadrian blushes and takes Teddy's hand. " hey guess what Teddy, your friendly captain wants you to blow the new year's horn!" Hadrian exclaims softly ruffling the top of his head. "no way!" Teddy shouts excitedly then runs off to the captain " Teddy" he says sternly as he reaches the stairs " thanks!, sorry!, bye!" he shouts then runs off.
