Bumping Into You PV Lizzie Verdine Completed

The small Ravenclaw hurried out of her Common Room at such a pace that you would probably be thinking she was being chased by a manic. Except, others would say Lizzie was the manic. She was holding lots of papers in her arms with a few sticking out of her shoulder bag as well.

She was having one of those moments where Lizzie would run somewhere and just write. It didn't matter what it was on or what it was about only that it was written down. Sometimes it made her actually meet new people. There were so many students at Hogwarts she was sure she would meet someone this time as well. If I don't I'll be disappointed.

Her dainty feet carried her out into the Courtyard. Obviously, her brain wanted her to go blind for a few seconds and take a massive tumble on top of someone. The parchments went everywhere. She gasped and opened her eyes to look while stuttering "I'm s-so sor-ry."

She looked at the person under her, "Oh, Hello." She smiled sweetly at the boy she had noticed (he was looked a bit shocked to say the least but Lizzie did have a bad sense of emotions so ho knew what the boy was thinking at that moment) and quickly stood up. She neatly gathered all the parchment and stuffed it into her bag. "I am very sorry for knocking you. My names Lizzie." She bent down a bit and held out her hand while smiling very widely at the Slytherin boy.

"H-hi Lizzie. I'm Charles. Charles Simmons, it's nice to meet you. Even if it was in a painful way." Charles smiled as he grabbed her hand. He shook it firmly, then let go. He got up off the floor and stood up. "And you don't have to be sorry. I should be the sorry one I should have been paying attention to my surroundings." Charles looked around to find his wand. As soon as he spotted it he snatched it off the ground.

"Have you seen a piece of parchment. It's a bit torn on the top and bottom and is completely blank on one side. It's really important to me. But I don't see it anywhere." He frowned as he realized he would not find it. He sighed sadly and began fiddling with his wand. It was how he thought now on the go. He readjusted his tie nervously.

Luckily for him, he was not rambling like he sometimes did. Unluckily for him, he was too nervous to speak properly. For when he tried to say something else he instead made his signature move when he is nervous. "Eep." Yup that right he made an Eep sound. What was wrong with him, and why does he always make an Eep sound when he is nervous?! He was such an idiot. Why could he not just be brave for once? But no instead he is a shy nervous and a rambling elven-year-old. He really was worthless like Leonard said.

Sorry for replying so late

interacting with @Charles Simmons

Charles. Charles Simmons. What a nice formal name. A lot better than she was named. Lizzie which could have been a shortened nickname for Elizabeth. But no her parents wanted her to be unique and special. She defiantly was special and unique with her taste in music and taste in literally everything else.

"That's very kind of you." She smiled brightly at him, "But it was my brain that was moving my legs. Not yours. I should have also been paying attention to nice young men that were walking by me." She was trying to make a good impression. What else should she do? Scream and shout at him for something that was her fault. No, Lizzie was going to be a decent person for once (She was decent every other day but normally in a bad mood due to not enough sleep).

She shook her head and sighed, "Unfortunately, I have not seen anything like that. Is it important? Should we call a teacher? Wait it can't be that bad can it?" She smiled while silently arguing with herself in her head. Wow. I'm such a dumb person. Obviously it is important to him if he wants to find it.

She looked up at him. She was a pretty short girl. Pretty short. Not to short. Just pretty short. "Are you alright? You look quite nervous. Are you sick for something?" She quickly asked. She looked around the courtyard hoping to find someone who could help her. She had no idea what was going on.

Lizzie slightly giggled after hearing the noise coming out of Charles mouth. "Can you speak? Or am I speaking to the empty body of Charles Simmons." She grinned and poked his arm in hopes of making him move or do anything other than make a 'Eep' sound. "Don't worry. I used to be as nervous as you when I came to Hogwarts. Thankfully, i found the right people who made me confident."

She winked at him cheekily and picked up her parchment while stuffing it into her small shoulder bag. The blonde haired girl moved over to a bench and sat down. She beckoned him over and patted the seat next to her hoping he would take her offer and sit next to her.

The boy just could not say anything. So he went and took her offer to sit next to her. Finally he was able to say something. "That piece of parchment is really important to me. Its a drawing I made of my parents,it the only thing I have left to rember them while I am here." The boy sighed sadly. "And if my bully found it then he would make fun of me even more then he dose already." The boy frowned and remembered what the drawing looked like.

He remembered the different types of pencils he used to make it at his house and how much time it took. And how precise he needed to be with his eraser so he did not ruin the drawing. "And you were definitely not like me." He said smiling as he remembered that day.

"One time I was so nervous when I was talking to someone. I started to sweat badly. And my skin became paler than it was. And my hands fiddled with his wand faster then before. And instead of having normal hiccups I made Eep sounds. As a replacement hiccup. I am still so embarrassed by that to this day." His face became red as he realized he just told someone his most embarrassing story. Then he looked down and fiddled with his wand again.

Lizzie looked down at her hands and smiled, "I'm sure you'll find it soon. It probably is somewhere around here." She looked up and made her eyes trail to his eyes hopping to make a comfortable eye contact. Except knowing Lizzie is would become uncomfortable and she would have to look away.

She laughed and then searched the courtyard in help for anyone she knew. It wasn't her being rude. More like that she wanted to introduce some friends of hers to Charles due to him needing a better social life. "Oh, I was. I'm telling the truth." She grinned at him.

"What? Who is your bully? Do I need to slap them in the face?" She was becoming over protective of this boy the more they talked and conversed, "Why are they being so mean to you?" She pouted and looked down at her feet while knocking them on the floor.

She suddenly laughed, "You were sweating all over? I'm sure that is the first time you told someone that story. That's pretty private." She shook her head and messed with a strand of hair then had fallen in front of her face. "You must like messing with that wand to never part your hand from it." She said nodding.

Charles looked down at his hands as he fiddled with his wand. He knew that he should reply to the girl. But he just listened as she spoke. Eventually he stopped listing all together as he thought about his bully. He had no idea why he picked on him. He just knew he was a jerk that was a bully.

"Yeah that was the first time I told somebody that story. And I only know my bullys first name. Its Leonard, I tried asking my parents if they knew any families with a son with that name." Charles sighed.

"But they had no answer, but the way the used their wording. I think there not telling me everything. But their my parents. I should trust them, so I will. If they say they know nothing then they don't know anything. Or are they really lying to me. I want to be optimistic and trust them but I just cant. They have never used wording like that in the letters they sent me before..." Charles sighed.

He got up off of the bench. And a piece of parchment slipped out of his robe and landed were he was sitting. He walked away and could not be seen anymore. For he was lost in a crowd of people and left behind what he was looking for.
