"Can I ride on yours next?" he asked the other boy, feeling slightly guilty. That guy could probably find a lighter first year anyway, right?
Not considering the fact that he was among the smallest of them. Ahem.
He dragged one last plank over and set it in place, then hopped over to Lex. Where did he dangle?
Was he coming or not and was the other girl going to hop on or not? The race was going to start and though these things weren't heavy, her shoulders were starting to feel sore. She doubted the potion was wearing off but just in case, they'd need to hurry.
Lex watched him actually yank another plank over to the pile before finally coming and she thought to question it but there was hardly any time so...she tilted the closer side of the plank to him and slumped a little for him to hang on.
"Hop on. Think I might just have to carry you while Little Ms. Hufflepuff makes up her mind to hang on." She said, nodding toward the girl that had yet to grab hold.
Eh, didn't matter, she'd just...pick up a fourth plank to remedy this and so she did, lifting one end from the floor with her foot and raising it high enough for her hand to reach. Four.
NOW he could hop on.
