She was excited for the new term and she had a new kind of motivation that wasn't there before. She was happy, excited and just couldn't wait.
Tugging her heavy trunk along the platform, she wondered if maybe she had packed too much stuff this year. She turned around and made the poor decision to tug on it while walking backwards. Not being able to see where she was going was probably not a wise choice, but this trunk was too dang heavy.
Adam had never encountered a magically enchanted brick wall before, but he had to admit the experience of running towards it had been one of a kind. After all it took a certain kind of mentality to be able to run towards a seemingly sturdy and unrelenting brick wall at full speed with the full possibility that something could wrong, and you could end up flat on your rear end.
In fact Adam was still looking back at the wall, still shocked that he had made it through it one piece that he hadn't noticed the girl standing in front of him. Without much grace Adam crashed right into the girl's luggage, nearly falling flat on his face, but thankfully he had fast enough reflexes to grab hold of a light post that conveniently managed to be right there. After regaining his balance, he turned to look at the girl.
"I'm so sorry," he said, feeling absolutely horrible.
"Are you alright?"
