5. Back To Business

"Mhm, I've never had this burger before." Sabrina says, mouth full.

They used some old blankets from the prop room, to make up a little picnic on stage.

"Are you serious, you've never ordered the cheeseburger at Royal Burger. it's like their classic."

She shrugs her shoulders

"What do you usually order then?"

Sabrina struggles to swallow, "Nuggets." She says painfully.

"Nuggets? Mick sighs, "So you're one of them."

"One of what?" She frowns.

"One of those people that orders the same thing they used to order as kids.

"Shut up." She giggles and throws the burger wrap his way, hitting him right in the chest.

They had a moment, that was their moment.

"Anyways, let's get back to business." she says, rising to her feet.

"I heard Samson's dad got him and his partner a whole lung for their project."

"Samson?" Mick frowns. "His dad is the butcher?"

Sabrina nods, "I heard they were gonna blow it up and demonstrate 'the dangers of smoking'."

"Great, how are we gonna top that?"

"Were not, it's too late, the assignment was supposed to be in tonight, ours won't be in until Monday."

"What do you mean, that gives us the whole weekend."

Sabrina shakes her head. "Miss Chapman told me that since the project will be handed in on the date that it is due, she can't give us anything but a passing grade, it wouldn't be fair for the other students if we got more time than them."

"You know, this wouldn't have been an issue if you would have met me at Royal Burger on Wednesday."

Sabrina looks at him, clearly insulted. "No, you know, that this wouldn't have been an issue if you would have met me, at the library on Tuesday." She snaps, hands on her hips.

"Fine." He sighs. "You win."

"Good." She mutters and takes a cool off lap around the stage.

An idea hit Mick as Sabrina had been snapping at him. Although her words had been harsh he couldn't help but to admire the way that the spotlight had hit her as she stood there in front of him.

"I think I have an Idea of a passing grade project we could do."

Sabrina returns from her lap, calmer than she had been before. "What?"

"The Vitruvian Man." He says.

"The who?"

"Leonardo Da Vinci's painting of The Vitruvian Man, we should recreate but now using a man and a woman's body."

"Why would we do that? Leonardo Da Vinci was an artist not a biologist"

"Right, but the Vitruvian Man has a lot to do with human anatomy, about perfect proportions. We'll modify the painting by including a woman's body as well. We could write a short rapport on the matter and use the model for display when we present it in class on Monday."

"Sounds like more than a passing grade to me."

Mick chuckles, "Trust me it isn't, we'll simply draw each other's features by lying down on a big piece of paper, the rapport will basically be facts we've gotten from Wikipedia."

She nods. "Fine, let's do it."
