Septimus was a star. Climbing more and more up the wall, scaling it like it was a tree to be climbed up, Septimus could feel nothing but triumph for his actions. It was easier to climb now, too, he was getting better and developing a rhythm. He was almost past the first story! Oh, the look on Cedrella's face when he came through her window, when he knocked, holding himself up with his elbows leaning on the windowsill. It would truly be something worth talking about. How Septimus Weasley Saved His Fiancee's Life By Scaling The Wall Outside Her Room And Whisking Her Away To Safety. It would be brilliant. It would be fantastic..
Smiling, Septimus could just imagine the look of surprise on her face, and hear the joy in her voice..He could hear it already, her quizzically asking him what he was doing there on the wall.. And. Oh. Septimus took a look around and found Cedrella on the ground, squinting up at him. "Oh!" he said stupidly, noticing for the first time that he was actually climbing up a wall like a crazy person. "Hallo Ceddy," he added with an awkward smile, moving now instead to place his foot down along the wall and go back towards the earth.
Only his foot slipped, and, taken by surprise, he crumpled and fell back down. Which wasn't exactly his plan, but he did the best he could. Luckily, there were hedges to break his fall.
