I love this piece so much. It's actually one of the first fics I read when I got into H/W. I really liked this part:

She was turning toward her clock to confirm their time was up, when she caught it from the corner of her eye. A micro expression, as Ekman called it - split-second, there and gone. Wilson had looked, in that tiny fraction of a second, sly and smug. He was hiding something. Damn it.

I'm not a psychiatrist, but I've done peer counseling and mentoring (all through boarding school and through some of college) and I know that exact look. It's such a perfect detail to include.
