Focused on reading the chapter titles as he flipped through the book, he tripped over the bags he'd oh so carefully stepped over before. "Oops," he muttered, pausing and looking up from the book. He glanced around, spotting a slightly older boy. "Um, is this yours?" he asked, pointing at his feet. He'd never been particularly graceful but after his last growth spurt, poor Finn felt like he had far too many arms and legs.
Daniel was circling the table looking for the textbook he needed when he noticed it somewhere in the middle and reached forward to grab it as some random guy tripped over what he assumed was a stack of books. Paying him no attention and instead checked the quality of the book when he was surprised that the guy began to talk to him.
He looked up as he placed the Advanced Transfiguration textbook in his shopping basket and leaned sideways to see what the other guy was talking about.
He looked down at his feet and spotted his shopping bags.
"Did you get hurt?" he asked, looking back at the guy with a slight frown on his face.
