The last classes of the day were over and the halls were quiet. Only the sports teams stayed late for practice, as well as a few of the senior school staff to catch up on their work. That is, only them and Peter.
Peter walked down the corridors towards his math class. The scuff of his shoes against the polished tile floor echoed down the empty halls. He clenched his math text and a ragged notebook in his hand. He was more than a little worried. He had been asked to stay late today by his teacher, Ms. Tibbs.
Peter was a smart teenager, if you count book-smarts, but was somewhat marginalized when it came to the various cliques and groups within school. He had his share of friends of course, but was not a popular student by any means. Tall, thin, and average looks, he was one of the crowd. He did do well in school though. He was usually near the top of all his classes and was well known among the teaching staff. Unfortunately his math marks were steadily declining over his last year at school. Being eighteen and graduating, Peter knew this could hurt his chances at getting admitted to the colleges he was hoping to apply to. He assumed that Ms. Tibbs wanted to discuss this. What else could it be?
He reached her classroom and knocked on the door with more than a little apprehension. There was no answer. He found Ms. Tibbs exceptionally attractive in both her looks and manner, and he had more than his share of fantasies about her, but the idea of being the only person in study hall with her was more than a little intimidating. He started toying with the idea of leaving. He had fulfilled his part of the deal - he showed up, and if she wasn't there, too bad. He began running through his head what he would say to her tomorrow to best defend himself, when he heard the crisp clicking sound of high heels coming down the corridor. Ms. Tibbs turned the corner and approached Peter while digging through her purse.
Ms. Tibbs was in her early forties and had been teaching at Peter's school for a few years. She was light skinned, tall, 5' 10", shapely and had a confident manner in both her demeanor and dress. This made her a popular topic in both the cafeteria and staff lounge. She wore her long, wavy brunette hair in different ways but mostly in a bun, like today. She was wearing a white cotton blouse and black linen skirt with black heels - fairly standard for Ms. Tibbs.
"Hello, Peter."
"Hi Ms. Tibbs"
"I'm glad you could make it," she said in a serious tone. "I wanted to discuss your grades."
"Yes ma'am. I'm sorry they're slipping. I've got a lot of work in my other classes and..."
"We'll discuss it inside please." She breezed past Peter retrieving the classroom key and fiddled with the door lock. Peter inhaled her perfume - vanilla?
As they entered the class, Peter couldn't help but watch her walk to her desk, her hips move, her heels clicking and her shapely calves exposed under the hem of her skirt.
"Peter, close the door, thank you."
Closing the door behind him, he then took his usual seat, front row in front of Ms. Tibbs desk. Ms. Tibbs placed her books on her desk and turned to clean the blackboard.
"So. You were saying about your current work load Peter?"
Peter shifted in his seat. "Uh, yeah. I guess I'm concentrating too much on other the classes."
Ms. Tibbs continued to clean the boards, making vigorous strokes with the brush. As she reached high, her calves flexed and one of her heels came out of her shoes. "Continue," she said without bothering to turn around.
Peter blinked out of his trace and stammered "And I guess I should devote more time to this one." He wasn't sure what else he could add.
She bent low, her feet a little more than shoulder-width apart, her hips rocking back and forth with each wipe of the board. "Anything else?"
"Uh, I guess that's it Ma'am." Peter felt a knot in his throat and his face go flush.
With the boards finished Ms. Tibbs turned and walked over to the wastebasket beside her desk and began rubbing the erasers together. She bent over as she did this, affording Peter a spectacular view down her blouse. He swallowed hard; his eyes grew wide and transfixed by the smooth white skin curving into her cleavage, vigorously jiggling with her arm movement. Peter shifted in his seat, still staring at her soft light skin. Ms. Tibbs casually glanced up at Peter, her expression unreadable.
She stood up straight, crossed her arms and regarded him. "Nothing else then Peter?" He looked down at his books and toyed with his pencil.
"I'm not sure what you want me to say." Uttering those words, Peter remembered to breath again.
"Well, I was hoping you'd have more insight." She walked to the back of her desk and opened her day book. "Your marks have steadily declined this year in this class alone and I find it puzzling and somewhat annoying. Is it the way I teach the material?"
