Flowering Thoughts

"Why did I do that?" Lady Lesso was alone in her office for now, thank goodness, she wouldn't be able to look at her Good colleague again!

It was a new day, and there were important duties to take care of in class. Students to teach, whatnot.

She shivered. The weather was growing colder each day. Her slim fitting gown wasn't very warm attire. She had been getting colder and probably ill as well.

Sniffing into a handkerchief, she opened the door of the office and headed to her classroom. Heels clicking on the stairs, she made her way down.

A long day at work was conquered. Tired, she headed up towards her office/ bedroom that she shared now, under some circumstances that had just arisen with

Clarissa Dovey.

Lady Lesso could feel her face grow warm as she thought the name. How could she not?

Hand on the doorknob, she silently entered the room. There she was, dressed in a light blue gown today, the blonde haired teacher of Good, sitting at her desk.

Immediately she jumped up.

"I heard you were sick!" she cried, running towards Lady Lesso and standing in front of her, blue doe eyes staring.

"Um... who told you that?" sniffled Lady Lesso, heading towards her desk while averting her gaze. "I have alot of things to be done. Out of my way please."

"No, you can't," replied Professor Dovey, "look, your face isn't even pale! It's flushed! You can't exhaust yourself like this."

Dovey's warm hand grasped Lesso's cold one. "Just rest ok?" Dovey reassured, "I've been worried about you," and she touched her delicate fingers to Lesso's forehead. Lady Lesso glanced down at her, big caring eyes and her heart sped up.

She had been worried...

"F-fine," she stuttered, "I'll lie soon for awhile. But wake me up later!"

"I will, darling," said Clarissa, "now-"

Had she just said darling? Now it was her turn to blush, a major contrast between her cream colored skin.

By now Lady Lesso had fallen into a slight sleep and hopefully, hadn't heard a word from Professor Dovey.
