Chapter 11 –The Interruption

Sunday morning came around and Andrea woke up around 10AM. Billy still seemed to be sleeping hard. She felt fully awake and got out of bed. She brushed her teeth and put on a tank top and boxsies.

Andrea was hungry and headed for the kitchen. She was setting up the coffee maker, when she heard steps in the other room.

As she prepared two cups of coffee, Andrea felt two arms embracing her from behind.

"Hey," he said and kissed her on the cheek from behind. Billy was holding her from the waist and Andrea enjoyed feeling his warm body right next to hers.

"Are you hungry?" she asked him. Just then, she realized that Billy was standing behind her naked.

"Yes, I'm very hungry," Billy naughtily grinned and pressed himself closer to her.

Andrea turned around to appreciate his nakedness. "I was referring to breakfast," she responded playfully.

"So was I. I want you for breakfast," he naughtily replied as he held on to her hips.

Billy was now kissing her so intensely that it unleashed this wild hunger in her in a matter of seconds. Andrea had barely a second to think when she realized Billy was already pulling her boxsies down and once that was off, he lifted her to sit her on the kitchen countertop.

Intuitively, she hungrily wrapped her legs around his hips. Billy had already pulled her tank top off and adjusted her hips in the position to welcome him in. Andrea knew Billy worked fast and now she felt his manhood beginning to fill her in. The pleasure made her tilt back so far that she almost hit her head with the kitchen cabinet.

Billy chuckled with amusement. He said "Come here baby!" as he slid her forward and closer towards him. Their faces now were a few inches apart. As he looked at her in a taunting manner, he lifted her tights a little higher and he pushed himself inside of her again. He was thrusting her hard and she could feel him even deeper. The sensation was mind-blowing. He had one hand on the back of her neck holding her up and the other one was holding tight to her hip. Andrea wrapped her arms around his neck and as they moved together in rhythm, Billy took her away on to another wild ride.

When all was said and done, Billy took a step back and seemed breathless.

"Maybe you should start thinking about cutting down on your ciggies, either that or take up running," Andrea teased him. She slid off from the kitchen counter top and Billy gave her a grin but didn't respond to her. He seemed to be busy studying her body.

Unexpectedly, the door bell rang.

Andrea's eyes widened and impulsively sought out her clothes. She motioned for Billy to go to the bedroom.

The door bell rang again.

"Andrea! It's Tom. I need to talk to you!"

"Shit!" Andrea blurted out. "Billy, can you please stay in the bedroom while I go see what he wants?" Andrea whispered as she put her boxsies on.

Suddenly, Andrea felt Billy's hand grabbing her by the arm and pushing her towards him. His expression had changed completely and he now had a somber look.

"You are not going anywhere. Who is this punk is and why is he coming here?" he confronted her.

"It's my neighbor Tom," she said. "I'll just see what he wants, it won't take long."

Andrea heard her name being called out again by Tom.

"Just a minute!" she yelled back.

Andrea saw Billy's expression turn dark in seconds. It was totally clear to her that he did not want her to tend to the door and was visibly angry at her for insisting in doing so.

Before he could say something Andrea questioned him: "Don't you have people in your life that are like family to you? Tom is like that for me. It sounds like this is important."

Billy let her go and turned away from her. He moved his hand over to scratch the back of his head. Then, he placed both of his hands on his hips as he turned around to look at her.

"You have five fucking minutes to get rid of him."

"Billy, Tom is just a very good friend and nothing more," she assured him.

"Whatever, you're with me right now and he needs to go the fuck away!"

Andrea felt frustrated but her focus now was in getting herself dressed. She quickly put on some sweatpants and another top. Billy had got dressed.

As she left the room, Billy flashed at her the number five with his hand. Right before she opened the door, she quickly tried to fix her hair.

Andrea was completely unsuspecting of the surprise she was about to get.

When she opened up the door, Andrea saw Tom standing in the hallway. But Tom was not alone; he had brought Derek along with him.

This is not good, not good at all, especially with temperamental Mr. Darley around.

"Surprise!" Tom said.

"Hey……why…… didn't you guys call first?"

"And give you a chance to get away? I don't think so," Derek playfully answered.

"Hummm, guys this is not a good time at all. I'm on the phone with my grandma and she is not doing well today," she said lying. Andrea was trying to cut the conversation short at all costs; she was afraid Billy would step in at any given second and make a scene.

"So sorry," Tom said. "Well, we stopped by to see if you wanted to come with us to play sand volleyball at the Pier. Maybe you can join us later?"

"Well, it will depend on how my grandma is doing. I should really get back to the phone. Can I give you guys a ring if I can make it?" Andrea stated just short of closing the door on them.

"Sure. We'll be there for a while so if you want to join us, just drop by whenever," Derek added.

"Okay. Have fun!" Andrea shut the door and did not wait for them to even say goodbye. She felt like a total jerk for treating them that way. Tom was one of her very best friends and Derek had been nothing but nice to her. She leaned on the closed door and sighed out of weariness.

Billy slowly stepped out of the bedroom. He was fully dressed now. He did not look happy. Andrea began dreading the conversation that was about to take place.

After the talk she had with Tom yesterday, she could not believe he insisted in bringing Derek around and that it had to happen when Billy was around. She could just kill him! Because of him, she would have to deal now with a difficult Billy.

"You wanna tell me what the fuck is going on?"

"Well, I am sure you heard the conversation."

"That sure sounded fucking important. Who is the fucker that your buddy Tom brought along? Is he the same fucking idiot from Friday night?

"Yes, it's Derek but I didn't know Tom was going to bring him here."

"Were you avoiding me last week because you were spending time with motherfucking Derek?"

"No, I just met him on Friday night."

Billy looked like he was still fuming.

"Billy, nothing has happened between Derek and me," she explained. "In case you haven't noticed, I have chosen to stay here with you. So, can we please not ruin our time together any more?"

Billy harshly grabbed her by the arm and pulled her closer to him.

"Billy what are you doing? Let me go!" she complained but Billy cornered her into the wall.

"Andy, I'm going to tell you this one time and one time only," he said in a threatening tone. "I don't want to ever see you hanging out with fucking Derek again. Is that clear to you?"

Andrea nodded yes and he released his grip and backed off from her. She could tell he was still pretty worked up.

Billy had just placed a cigarette on his lips and took one puff to light it up. He removed the cigarette from his mouth and exhaled very slowly.

In the mean time, Andrea was thinking she had not liked him manhandling her like that. However, at that moment, she didn't know whether to scream at him or throw herself at him. What he had just said to her completely amazed her. Was Billy jealous of Derek or was he toying with her? Also, the way he spoke to her almost made it sound as if he planned to continue to see her. Or again, was this just wishful thinking on her part? Andrea had to know what was happening between the two of them before Billy left her apartment that day.

As Billy looked at her, he sucked another burst out of the cigarette and she saw him holding the smoke on his mouth before inhaling it. He seemed to be studying her reactions and that made her feel somewhat uneasy.

"I did not appreciate at all what just happened here. It's not like I planned for them to show up looking for me," Andrea announced in a calm but firm manner. "If it was the reverse situation and I knew your buddies needed you for something urgent, I wouldn't even think about giving you a hard time so you would stay with me or to force you to get rid of them."

"I need to get fucking going," he said exhaling heavily.

"Why?" she questioning him.

"I forgot to take care of something for Bones," he said firmly. Billy pulled out his phone from his jacket pocket.

Andrea got exasperated at his behavior.

"You are not leaving until this conversation is finished," she informed him.

Billy acted like he didn't hear her and began dialing a number. Andrea took the phone away from Billy's hands.

"Andy, give me the damn phone. Do not make me fucking calm you down!"

Andrea wasn't sure what that threat meant but she was not going to keep quiet.

"I don't care if you really have something to do for Bones or if that is just a lame excuse for you to leave Billy. I have done nothing wrong to you so I won't let you disrespect me like that. You think that ……"

Andrea stopped talking because Billy had shut her up with a kiss. His mouth hungrily sought hers and demanded the same of her. At some point he stopped kissing her but didn't stop holding her in his arms. They were both breathing out of control and she felt his reaction was totally unexpected and confusing. He leaned her body on the wall and pressed his forehead on hers.

"What are you doing Billy?" Andrea confronted him. "You are not making any sense today. You can't have enough of me and then, the next minute you are angry at me and……"

Billy interrupted her again.

"Is just the whole thing about what I do….and if you and I…." he began responding just to stop talking a few seconds later.

Andrea thought that there it was, he had finally said it. She recognized that those were the exact words she had wanted to know all this time but they were not the choice of words that she had hoped to hear from him.

The whole big "if" kept on drumming inside her brain because it was the second time that weekend that he used that same expression when referring to their situation.

Andrea was annoyed at Billy, really annoyed at him. Why did he put her through all this BS of arguing when he knew all along things were not going to move forward between them? Well, at least she recognized that message she was getting was consistent with what they had agreed on the day before. There was no reason for her to be beating on a dead horse so she decided to put a brave face and respond to him as poised as she could. Andrea didn't want to let him know that she felt both devastated and angry at him for telling her it was over between them. At a minimum, she planned on keeping some dignity.

"I understand," she said. "This is the end of the road. You don't' have to worry about me."

Billy was not uttering a word but Andrea noticed a shift in his demeanour again. The grey blue eyes were suddenly giving her a very severe look. It was almost as if Billy kept on going back and forth on what he seemed to want out of her. His attitude made Andrea feel exasperated.

"Well, you did you say that I would drive you crazy, remember?" she immediately added. The whole purpose for her making that comment was to figure out what was going on in his head.

"That's not what I fucking said," he responded now visibly annoyed. "I said you would make me loose my fucking mind."

"Billy, isn't that more of less the same? It still doesn't change that we live such different lives..."

"Yes, we do. I better get fucking going." he said cutting her off mid-sentence and snatching his phone from her.

Andrea had enough of running in circles with him.

"Why do you keep running away?" she questioned him.

"I'm not fucking running away!" he screamed at her.

"No? Why are you leaving then?"

"Unlike you, I don't have the luxury of having fucking idle time. And Andy, you better stop mouthing off to me like that."

"Well, then answer me Billy, why are you pushing me away? Is it because you are clueless about what is happening between us or is it because you really don't give a shit?" she challenged him to tell her.

The icy greyish eyes were completely focused on her. Billy had his cigarette hanging from his lips now and as the smoke slowly slipped through his lips; she had no clue what he could be thinking. He was taking his time to respond but she was not going to let him off the hook.
