That was why she found herself on the grounds. Here, it wasn't as confusing. The wide-open spaces made her feel a little better, more in control.
She walked slowly along the path, glancing from side to side occasionally. This was all rather exciting...finally being at Hogwarts. She could almost imagine her parents reaction once she was able to tell them about, well, EVERYTHING. The thought made her smile and she realized that she'd have to send off an owl soon. She just hoped that the animal would be inconspicuous. After all, the neighbors would think something was off if a random owl delivered a letter to her parents.
She giggled. Now that would be funny.
August had been down as low as the Kitchens and up as high as Gryffindor Tower in the Castle so far and when he was up there he glanced out the window this morning see the vast grounds that spread in each direction from the base of the large school.
After a quick bite to eat in the Great Hall, thankfully the silverware was clean this time, Auggie made his way outside and found himself on a group of paths through various trees and plants. He wished he was aloud to bring his bike here, this spot would be perfect to go riding. As he imagined himself doing just that he saw a small girl up ahead of him. That is probably why they didn't want bikes, he most likely would havehit that girl since he was able to come up beind her so close and not even notice her when he was just walking.
"Good thing I wasn't riding my bike, or you might not have made it to classes when they start." August grinned, not really aware how morbid what he had meant as a friendly little conversation started, had sounded.
