With sore grazed hands and a grazed knee, Olivia glanced up at the boy who had extended his hand out to her. A slight pink dusted her cheeks. "Thanks, sorry about running into you," she said as she wiped the dirt off of her. She couldn't do much as she was still sitting on the ground. She took his hand and help to get off of the ground. It took her a moment to realize that the boy had asked her a question. "Hmm.. Yes! I think I'm alright. I was chasing after..." Her blue eyes widened. Now it was truly gone, wasn't it? Stupid... Stupid Stuipd.. Her shoulders slumped a little. She felt defeated by the silly breeze. If only she had been paying more attention. "Oh Merlin. The list is gone, isn't it? Stupid, stupid, stupid." She sighed, bringing the palm of her hand and resting it on her head. Olivia needed that list- it had everything scribbled on it from school supplies to ideas to her brother's flat address. She paused, realizing she probably looked crazy in front of this person. "Sorry. I was chasing a piece of parchment that had my list for school supplies that had got swept up by the wind. Now I have to find it cause it has my brother's address on it. I probably seem a little frazzled. Sorry." The shade of pink that coloured her cheeks turned a slightly darker shade out of embarrassment.
"Thanks for helping me up and sorry about running into you. I'm Olivia. Olivia Holden. I'll be transferring to Hogwarts this upcoming fall," she smiled, holding out a grazed hand towards the boy.
Olly was still concerned that the girl might have gotten hurt when she fell. Her knee didn't look too good.
"Do you need a bandaid?" He asked as he helped her up. She was already talking about something else though. Olly kind of hoped she didn't need a bandaid because he didn't actually have one. He should have thought about that before he offered. But he was sure he could find one somewhere if she truly did need one.
"A list?" He hadn't noticed one before but now that she mentioned it he glanced around, looking for a piece of parchment. He saw something floating in the air not far away.
"Is that it? Come on, we can still catch it!" If she wasn't too hurt that is. Olly rushed toward the parchment, trying to snatch it out of the air. Of course it would have been much easier to just accio it, but seeing as he was not in school that wasn't really allowed.
He realized a bit belatedly that she had introduced herself and that he should probably do the same in return.
"Nice to meet you Olivia. I'm Oliver."
