"I wont take a lot of your time Theo," she said and held open the door to her office.
Theo was nervous about going into the office ahead of her. It meant he would be unsure of what to do, where to stand, or where to sit. Ms Greanwyloe closed the door and walked quickly around him, and for the first time Theo noticed just how short she was. As she passed him the top of her head passed under his nose and he smelled the perfume in her hair. He calmed himself a little thinking she was a very beautiful woman for her age. He never had feelings for her, she seemed cold as ice to him, but he had heard stories of other students who had developed crushes on the Science Queen, only to be rebuked again and again. When she started talking she was looking right into his eyes smiling just slightly, as if it was difficult for her.
"Do you remember what I mentioned at the end of class today?” She asked.
"Yes I do," he said politely. “You mentioned there was some extra credit available this weekend.”
"Yes," she said and seemed to brighten, her smile growing ever so minutely warmer. "I am glad you weren't daydreaming. Dr. Hokkum asked me to recommend any students that have artistic talent to him and I gave him your name. I understand you do drawings.”
“Yes I do.” He thought she knew about the drawings. She had made it sound like she wasn’t sure, yet it wasn’t a question either. Maybe she was feeling him out trying to get him to tell her something about the drawings. What ever was going on one thing was certain. He had not prepared for this conversation.
