The Train of Beginnings
Liam was standing before wall and platform 9 and 3/4 alongside with his father. He was wearing his favorite black hoodie and dark sweat pants.
"Am i really supposed to run through the wall? I know you told me it many times, but i am still not sure."
His father looked at him with smile and he stroked his hair.
"I would like to show you, but i can't go through till you go. Magic barrier is preventing muggles to enter unless their child goes first. So don't worry and just go. I promise it will be all right."
Those words didn't convinced Liam, but after all, what he had to lose, the letter looked real, the explanation of his father make sense, so this wall is just next weird stuff that is going to become normal for him. He walked and the moment he should bump into wall he pass through. On the other side was normal platform full of parents and child, with kinda similar equipment that he alone had and they were entering the train. Liam waited till his father appeared. When it happened they great each other farewell and on his father wish he hugged him. After that he walked into train and begun to look for free place to sit, best would be empty coupe. But he couldn't find any, everywhere were at least two people sitting. Of course Liam was looking only into opened coupe, when they were closed he sometimes wait and listen, every time he heard someone talking or moving, and sometimes just walked by. After two wagon passed the luck smiled at him. The coupe was closed but he heard no sound from inside. He tried to open the door, in his nervousness he used to much force. The doors open quickly and loudly. That wasn't his intention and the situation got even worse. The coupe wasn't empty. The girls was sitting there. She was quite nice looking, which was no helping. Rather the opposite. To add she was holding book and didn't look pleased by the sudden noise. Liam understood the expression of her face. If someone does this to him he would have the same face.
"He ... Hello. He stuttered after a while. To be honest he never talked much to girls before. "I apologize. I didn't mean to open the door that roughly. Is there any seat free?"

The Train of Beginnings
Alena confidently walked through the barrier onto platform 9 3/4 after her older sister Maia, her parents and younger brothers trailing behind her. It wasn’t the first time she had been here. This was Maia’s third year, so she’d been twice before. She looked around, looking for her cousin Colin, but she didn’t see him. He was probably already on the train with that girl he liked. Chloe? Clara? No, it was Clair. That sounded right. Alena tried to make a quick escape, but her mum fussed over her because ‘it’s your first year of hogwarts, and thats a very big deal, love.’ Alena finally escaped, hugged a quick goodbye to her brothers and parents and boarded the train excitedly. Maia had boarded nearly immediately, and went to go find her friends, and Colin was no where to be found, so she walked on by herself. Alena dragged her trunk onto the train, her bag stuffed with books slung over her shoulder, looking for a semi-empty compartment. She figured it was a good time to make friends. Finally she found one with a boy and a girl talking, the girl with a book in her lap. Alena softly tapped on the door. “May I join you?” Alena’s voice was soft, with a British accent that had a hint of a Scottish one from her years spent living with her mothers clan.

Yeah. Came into Liam's mind, when je saw the new girl which entered the door. Another nice looking girl. The God really doesn't want me to speak. Now if i think of it, i had almost no girl classmates and to this few i never paid much attention, they were boring and kinda not interesting. Does it mean that i will react like that to every girl i meet. That's stressful. And sorta annoying, hope it will not be like that, otherwise it would be a hell in school ať this rate. Anyway i can be just silence and smile, with polite greeting.
It was a while when he realized that he was lost in his thoughts for some time, which forced his introvert side to out of nothing blurt out.
"Hello."
Right after his mind blanked with ideas. So he used his auto-defense system. Put on his face pleasant smile. With his hopes put into chance, that girls will start talking one to another and he can just listen, watch.
"I guess so." Added after he realized what question was given by the new girl and pointed his hand toward the girl with a book. "But she is the one to decide."
