Protective Brother

Hyperion snuck down the hall way stealth like and moved with the shadows. Today Abraxas had come home and Tom Riddle had followed. He knew there was something defiantly different about the other boy and he was going to find out what it was. His sixth sense told him this would be idea, so he had snuck out of the room and headed for Tom Riddle's bedroom. He would be in major trouble if his parents found him out wondering in the halls, but he had to get this done. He slowly opened the door before sneaking into the room and shutting the door behind him. Tom Riddle was sleeping soundly on the bed snuggled into the blankets. Hyperion thought, oddly enough, that Tom Riddle looked rather cute at the moment. Slowly he made his way over before peering over the side of the bed and shaking Tom Riddle awake. The other boy startled awake and stared around questionably until he saw Hyperion starring him down hard core.

"Hyperion?" He asked sleepily.

"Are you a vampire in disguise?" Hyperion asked sharply and Tom Riddle looked confused about the question.

"No."

"Werewolf?"

"No."

"Naga?"

"No."

"Shape-shifter?"

"No."

"Cannibal?"

"No."

"A Troll?"

No.

"A –"

"Hyperion, I am not anything in disguise!" Tom said irritably.

"Then what are you!" Hyperion demanded.

"I'm a wizard just like you are Hyperion." Tom said with a tired sigh.

"So you're not going to steal my brother away?" Hyperion said with a serious face.

Tom look confused until he let a small smile, "Why would I want to steal him away?"

"Nott does! He always stills brother away and then I never get to see him." Hyperion said with a trembling lip.

"Shh, Hyperion. I do not wish to steal your brother away. I just wish to be his friend." Tom said softly.

"Oh, ok. I'll see you in the morning, Tom." With that said the tired four year old left the confused wizard.
