Miss Pendragon {Lady Lesso / Reader} S.G.E

First Day

After an hour or so, most students have settled in, leaving us staff to chat in the hall. Professor Dovey walks out, huffing and puffing. "Are you okay, Professor?" I ask, somewhat concerned. "Agatha of Galvaldon. She claims she doesn't belong here and she wants to go home. I've explained that no mistakes were made, but she's being stubborn." Professor Dovey explains. Laughs come from most, if not all staff members. Professor Dovey rolls her eyes. "It's not funny. The poor girl is gonna be rough to deal with. Lucky Y/n, you have her first period tomorrow." Professor Dovey tells, a sarcastic smile on her face. I smile, glaring at the ground.

The next hour goes relatively smooth. All students from both Good and Evil meet in the Assembly Hall and sit on their designated sides; Good on the right side of the stage, Evil on the left. I sit quietly next to Professor Anemone, listening to the many conversations being held by the students on the benches. As I'm looking around the hall, studying the students I haven't yet met, I hear the loud bang of a staff which is quickly followed by an aggressive "SHUT UP!" All heads turn to Lady Lesso, who smiles proudly, taking a step back. I catch myself smiling towards Lesso, a little too much than I should. My expression drops, and I shift my focus onto Professor Dovey. "Thank you, Lady Lesso. Welcome everyone, to the schools of Good and Evil. I'm Professor Dovey, the Dean of the school for Good-" she starts. "And I'm Lady Lesso, the Dean of the school for Evil." Lesso cuts in. Good stays oddly quiet, meanwhile Evil screams and shouts like Hyena's.

The assembly flies by quickly. "Evil, you may head back to your school now." Professor Dovey addresses. The students scramble their way back to their side, Lesso following not too far behind. My eyes follow the redhead as she exists the room. Professor Dovey sighs and steps foward. "Right, students of Good. These are the teachers you may or may not have this year. She introduces all staff members, then finally gets to me. "Last, but not least, we have Princess Y/n." she says, gensturing for me to come forward. I  confidently make my way up to her. "Good afternoon everyone, as the lovely Professor Dovey has already told you, I'm Princess Y/n. Other than Princess Y/n, you may also call me Miss Pendragon. Whatever suits you. I will be teaching both 'Eye for Design' to the girls, and 'Archey' to the boys. I was in your guys exact position thirteen years ago, today. Just remember, being nervous, or scared, it completely normal. It will fade over time. If it doesn't, and you feel like you need someone to talk to, you can most definitely come to me." I say, introducing myself a little more.

I take a step back as Professor Dovey steps forward once more. "Does anyone have any questions?" she asks. Everyone looks at Tedros, then back at me. "You're Tedros's aunt." one young Prince says. Before I can reply, a young Princess speaks. "The one that got taken all those years ago." she says. I nod, laughing. "Yes, I am Tedros's aunt. Yes, I did get taken, but I got brought here; to the school for Good." I explain. Everyone calms down and Professor Dovey continues speaking. "Right, since no one has any school related questions, you may all head back to your dorms or explore the castle. There, however, is one rule. No one is to cross the bridge to the school for Evil unless you're with a staff member. Got it?" All students nod in response. "Perfection. Classes start tomorrow morning. Off you go." she finishes, a wide smile on her face.

An hour or so after the assembly, all students gather in the dining hall for lunch. This is the first time I've seen the hall be full like it used to. Honestly, it brings back amazing memories. As I'm walking over to the teachers table, I get flagged down by Tedros who is surrounded by girls. I walk over, shaking my head and laughing. "What's up?" I ask, sitting across from him. "Everyone wanted to meet you." he explains, sipping his drink. "Got it. Well, here everyone, you've met me. Does anyone have anything to ask me, or anything to tell me before I go eat?" I ask.

As I'm chatting with the students, I feel Lesso's cold gaze on my back. I don't know how or why I know it's her, but I do. There is something about this feeling. I don't know whether I'm feeling second hand jealousy, or second hand annoyance, but whatever it is, it doesn't make sense. I quickly become irritated and nervous under her stare. I cut the chat short. "Alright you lot, I'm starving. If you have anymore questions, come and find me. I'll happily answer them." I say, standing up from the table. I make my way over to the teachers table, Lesso still keeping her eyes locked on me. I sit next to Professor Dovey. "Where were you, Princess?" she asks, confused. I look behind us. "I was talking to Tedros and his posse. They quote on quote 'wanted to meet me'." I explain. Lesso raises her eyebrows as she takes a sip from her cup.
