Not Saint Jimmy, chapter 7
As Christmas drew nearer a new mood overtook the Armstrong household. After the funeral Teresa had returned to her silent ways and for a couple of months she had said nothing, but now she seemed to be getting happier. She was talking more and to see her smile was not so rare anymore. Billie smiled as he looked at her. Maybe now that all complications were gone and she was getting over the death of her family, they could begin their life together, as father and daughter.
"So what have you got your dad for Christmas then?" Chloe asked down the phone.
"FUCK!" Teresa screamed. Tom looked round, "I knew there was something I forgot today. Shit. That means I have to go Christmas shopping AGAIN tomorrow. Urgh, this is so much hassle. It was a lot easier when know one liked you and know one would get you presents."
"You've always had presents for Christmas." Chloe retorted.
"No, not last year. I wasn't ion contact with anyone from England and everyone in America hated me." Chloe laughed, "Poor Tezzers."
"Uhuh!" Tez said like a baby, "feel sorry for me!" She laughed.
"Well, I gotta go anyway, it's almost school time over here, I was on the train when you first called."
"Oooooo, who's on door duty?"
"Dr. Jackson."
"Do you reckon he remembers me?"
"How could he not? You were the kid that came in stoned everyday, they just couldn't prove it!"
"Hand the phone over to him!" Teresa suddenly said.
"No way, anyway, we're almost at the classroom now. Wait, here's Ro!"
"Tres!" Ro screamed down the phone.
"Hey Ro!"
"I would do the whole how are you shit but I have to hand in coursework! So I'll talk to you later! Bye!"
"Bye!"
"I gotta go to Tez," Chloe came back on the phone.
"OK, talk to you later, bye, love you"
"Yeah, have a good night on your own with Tom."
"Shut up." Teresa mumbled.
"Bye," Chloe laughed.
"Bye," Teresa hung up the phone.
Tom turned to Teresa. She grinned as he patted the spot next to him on the sofa, indicating that she should sit down. She flopped down next to him, leaning her head on his chest as he pressed play and 'The Ring' began. "You would choose a scary movie wouldn't you." She said.
"Yeah! I want you holding onto me as much as possible!" Teresa laughed.
"You don't need a movie to get me to hold onto you." Her suggestive tone caused him to look down at her. She giggled, moving slightly so she was closer to his lips. He grinned and swiftly placed his lips on hers.
Slowly they began to slide down the sofa so they were lying, Tom rolled over on top of Teresa and slipped his hands up her top. It seemed to magically disappear, as did his. His began moving his lips down to her stomach as she gave a soft moan of pleasure. He grinned and moved back up to her neck, biting it softly as his hands fumbled with her belt buckle.
Teresa woke up to the sound of a scream. She opened her eyes quickly and saw Adie, Billie, Joey and Jakob standing in the hallway. She noticed Tom was sitting bolt upright. Fuck. She quickly covered her naked body, her face burning red. Billie, Adie and the boys left. Tom got up quickly and shoved on his clothes, she followed suit. As he was pulling on his shirt Billie walked in. Teresa's face burned red again and her stomach fluttered nervously.
"Sit," he barked at them, they did so. He didn't speak for a while, just paced up and down.
"Dad, let me explain... I... "
"God damn it Tez!" he screamed suddenly, she jumped slightly, "you don't need to explain, it's obvious what happened. I trusted you! And on our fucking sofa too!?! And you.." he growled, turning on Tom as he tried to stand up for
Tez, "You broke the fucking law. She not sixteen yet, how could you have let this happen huh? You're meant to be almost an adult. Now get out of my house." Tom stood up and left quickly as he passed Billie he said quietly, "I'm sorry sir," and then he was gone. Billie sighed heavily and sat down next to Teresa. She moved away slightly.
"I trusted you," he said, quieter now.
"I know, and I'm really sorry, but I just got carried away. Come on dad, you were my age once. Remember what it was like?"
"Yeah and I made a fuck loada mistakes when I was your age in the sex department. I just don't want you to do the same thing."
"But you gotta let me make my own mistakes dad!" he sighed.
"You're right, and I'm not angry anymore, well I am a little bit, but it was illegal so you're grounded for two weeks."
"Fine, and can you apologise to Tom, I mean I did let him and he would have stopped if I had asked him to." Billie stared at her and nodded.
"Yeah, ok, get him to come over tomorrow and I'll apologise. Just answer me this, did you use protection?"
"I'm not stupid dad! Of course!"
"OK, but you're still grounded for 2 weeks." He got up and entered the kitchen. Teresa followed him.
Adie looked around at her and smiled. Billie grabbed a beer and left saying that he was going to the music room to work on some new material. Adie walked up to the breakfast bar, handing Tez a cup of tea.
"Soooooo, how was it?" she asked, Teresa stared at her. She laughed. "Come on, spill, I want all the dirty details, was he good?" Teresa laughed, Adie was more like a friend than a mom.
"I don't really know, I mean I can't compare him to anyone else considering I've never fucked anyone before today."
"OOOOO, so it was your first time, now that is interesting. How long did it last? Did you enjoy it?"
"Adie!" I hit her playfully on the arm, "those are personal questions!" Adie laughed
"Fine. Did Billie ground you?" Teresa nodded.
"For two weeks."
"It's hard for him to see you grow up, I mean you had to grow up real fast and you never really got experience what it was like to have a normal teenage life, though to be honest you didn't miss much, but also you've been hurt so much and he don't wanna see you hurt again." Teresa nodded again.
"I know, but I mean, he can hardly talk!" Adie laughed and nodded in agreement.
"So what have you got your dad for Christmas then?" Chloe asked down the phone.
"FUCK!" Teresa screamed. Tom looked round, "I knew there was something I forgot today. Shit. That means I have to go Christmas shopping AGAIN tomorrow. Urgh, this is so much hassle. It was a lot easier when know one liked you and know one would get you presents."
