conversation tuckered out and for that I was thankful. I don’t care how old I got it was still weird to talk to her about boys. She didn’t bring it back up again and I spent a few days there before I went back up to campus. My first class started at the beginning of the week, so it gave me the weekend to get my books and myself sorted.
I finally turned my phone back on and there were a lot of missed calls from Billy. The latest one was a few hours before and I realized I was going to have to answer it eventually. So I dialed the number back and held my breath as my heart pounded in my chest. I was never one to run away from anything and I don’t know why, but I wanted to get the issue on the table.
“Hey, you called?”
“Yea I’ve been calling you for weeks now.”
“Did you need something?”
There was a pause on his side and I figured it was because of the way I was acting. I didn’t want to feel anything for him and it was easier to push him away. Or try anyways.
“Yea I want to see you. We have unfinished business.”
“I have a lot going on, maybe sometime next week?”
“Now.”
Man he was demanding and the tone left me no assumptions of his seriousness. “How about Sunday?”
“How about now? Where are you?”
“I’m out of town right now.”
“Liar. I saw your car come through earlier.”
“I’m at home Billy, about to go out.”
“Address?”
“I’m not giving you the address.” Fuck, I was going to if he asked.
There was a silence on the other side and I waited for his command. The very idea made me want to hang up, but I was waiting for something.
“If I don’t see you tonight I might explode.”
The answer was so simple, as the question had been. I gave him what he wanted. I knew I was going to cave in.
“Be right there.”
Chapter 8
I didn’t know how long he would be, but I knew that I was not ready for a visitor. I had driven home in yoga pants and a T shirt. It definitely wasn’t what I wanted him to see me in, so I went to the back of the apartment to change and maybe jump in the shower. I was already preparing for what was to come.
I decided on a shower after the drive. It had been a long day and a long drive back to campus. I didn’t feel sexy, I felt a mess. Facing Billy in this way did not suit me. I made it quick, not sure what time he would be there. I was turning off the water and wrapping a towel around me when I heard a loud knock at the door. Of course. “Just a minute!”
He knocked harder and I cursed at the closed door. Why was that man so impatient?
Moving towards the door, I tightened my grip on the towel. I opened the door while I held the towel in place with the other and then moved to let him in. “Just give me a second to get dressed. I will be right out.”
I got into the back bedroom quickly, shutting the door behind me as I searched for something to wear. My heart was going a mile a minute and I couldn’t think.
Hearing the door open, I turned around to see him standing there. “I am sick of waiting Deidra. You are not going to put me off anymore.”
I gulped, trying to swallow down the sudden obstruction in my throat. Billy was next to me quickly. Before I could blink he was in front of me. His hands and lips were on me in seconds and there was no way I could think anymore at all. I opened my mouth to the pressure of his tongue. It was as I knew it would be. When he started moving me backwards, I didn’t really understand what he was doing, until I felt the bed mattress on the back of my calves. I was quickly pushed to the surface, his body moving over mine. Everything was just going too fast, but there was no way for me to resist it.
There was a breeze on my body as he lifted up his own and pushed the towel away that was covering me. He hissed with a full view and I couldn’t help but dampen from the sound. Pulling me towards the headboard, his arm snaked underneath my back to effortlessly move me. Then he was pulling
