Fear And Obsession (2) Days later Rachel eats lunch at a pizzeria and calls Hanna, but she does not reply as she is making love with Lindsay on their bed. She puts her phone in her bag, then Susie and Tiffanie sit across from her. Susie asks, “What’s up girlfriend?” “I’m in a lousy mood, girls,” Rachel replies. “Oh, what’s wrong?” Tiffanie asks. She says, “Ever since my BFF found a boyfriend, she has been so distant from me and always focuses on him. We have done nothing together for eight months. Whenever I want us to hang out she wants to bring him along, then if I don’t let that, she decides to be home doing who knows what to him.” “How did your last hangout go?” Susie asks. Rachel recalls the time she and Hanna, in bikinis, held Audrey’s 15-year-old aqua phobic brother Vivien, in a shirt and shorts, on the edge of a rented motorboat in Mill Basin last summer. Rachel told him to put his feet in the water, but he refused and Hanna yelled at him to do so. He shrieked after just having his toe in. Hanna threatened to toss him into the water causing her and Rachel to fight. Rachel tells the couple, “Not that great.” Tiffanie asks, “Want to see us put our lips, tongue and fingers all over each other and orgasm? It should cheer you up.” “What’s wrong with you?!” Rachel asks angrily. “You want to join!? We’d love to have a threesome and feel your hot body,” Susie says. “I’ll keep you mind,” Rachel says. “Thanks, bye,” Tiffanie says. She and Susie leave. In the next lecture class, Lesser walks around the room giving back the graded tests to his students. Rachel is thrilled to get an 85, but when Lesser gives Lindsay his test he asks, “May we speak after class?” “Sure,” Lindsay says. As Lesser walks away Rachel sees that Lindsay got just a 68 and is so shocked. After class, she stands outside the room listening to them talk by Lesser’s desk. He asks, “What is up with you?! You barely passed this test after almost acing the first one, have not done the assigned reading or homework, and look like you were hit by a car.” “I haven’t had time to study as my girlfriend Hanna is teaching me new things at home and I keep screwing up and injuring myself,” Lindsay says. “What are you trying to learn?” Lesser asks. “Um, cutting meat, assembling big furniture, and whatever else that requires handling sharp or heavy objects.” Lesser says, “Look it is not my business what you do outside of class, but you must make time to do my assigned work if you want to pass. I will drop this test from your final grade if you do better in the next one, but the missed homework and low class participation will affect it a lot. Even if you ace the final test and lab, you likely will not get higher than a B, B+ if you’re lucky.” Lindsay says, “Thanks for letting me know. I’ll study more. I mean it.” Lesser says, “You better. See you after the break.” “Bye,” Lindsay says, then leaves the room and right into Rachel. “Um, were you listening to our conversation?” he asks. “Yes, were you telling Lesser the truth or trying to protect Hanna?” she asks. “Again? Why can’t you leave us alone?” he asks. She says, “I know something is wrong with you two and won’t rest until either you or she tells me what it is.” He replies, “I told you we’re fine.” “But…,” she says. He angrily yells, “Just stop it,” and leaves. Rachel later sees Hanna sitting on a sofa at the Student Center’s Amesfort Lounge, going to her. After Hanna sees her, she stands, hugs her and asks, “How you doing?” The women sit as Rachel says, “I’m well. I got an 85 on my Physics test!” Hanna says, “Oh, that’s great! Lindsay’s tutoring must have really helped.” Rachel replies, “Yeah speaking of Lindsay, I’m worried about him.” “Why?” Hanna asks. Rachel says, “Lately, he has been looking like mobsters beat the crap out of him. I saw lots of cuts, scars and bruises on him.” Hanna says, “Oh that? He lives with me, so I’ve been teaching him to do various chores at home in case he is ever alone and that has been hard as he is prone to hurting himself.” Rachel asks, “What, he lives with you?” “Yeah, he didn’t want to stay with his family while in college as they’re very strict, punishing him if he is out late, fails a test or doesn’t fulfill a responsibility. He told me this when we met and he had a hard time finding a cheap house and I let him live with me. We became lovers after spending so much time together. I’m so glad I moved out of my parents’ home too,” Hanna says. “So explain why he has not done his homework lately or got just a 68 on the test when he never gets under a 90!” Rachel yells. Hanna says, “Oh? I guess we make love and learn new stuff so often he didn’t have time to study.” Rachel says, “Do you really enjoy having sex with him? You sounded like you had heavy orgasms when I called Sunday.” Hanna says, “Yes, he is so good at kissing my body and I love it when he goes down on me and puts his tongue in my ass.” Stunned, Rachel says, “Oh god eww!” Hanna says, “If you made love with him, I think you’d take back all the bad stuff you say about him and wish he was your honey.” She then looks at her watch and says, “It is time to take Lindsay home, we’ll talk later.” Rachel nods and the two kiss each other’s cheeks. Hanna leaves. As Rachel sits, thinking, Charlene enters, goes to her and asks, “How is it going?” Rachel says, “Oh I am good, but not sure for Hanna and Lindsay.” Charlene says, “Oh, I remember what you said.” “I finally got the chance to talk to them and they said the same thing about how he got hurt and the relationship is going good,” Rachel says. “They might be telling the truth,” Charlene Says. Rachel says, “I know. It is just hard to believe. Do you think I’m overreacting?” “Honestly, yes as the relationship doesn’t affect you, but if it’s an issue you can never be too sure,” Charlene says. Rachel asks, “What should I do?” “Follow your heart, do whatever it takes to find all of the facts.” Charlene says. Rachel asks, “Even if I find nothing wrong?” “Yes the truth is what’s most important. Hey, I must go to work now.” Charlene says. “Okay thanks for your tip.” Rachel says. Charlene says, “No problem dear, bye.” The ladies kiss each other’s cheeks and Charlene leaves. Rachel then leaves and drives to Whitehead Hall. She passes Hanna’s car and parks a few feet ahead of it, looking from her rearview mirror. Hanna is by the building’s main stairs, waiting for Lindsay to leave radio class and is mad he comes 15 minutes later than usual. He says, “Sorry I’m late, I had to help fix my professor’s busted speakers.” “Why didn’t you tell me that before?” she asks. “It was a last minute thing, I didn’t know,” he says. She raises a hand, but then points at him and says, “Do this again and I’ll beat you hard!” He nods at her, then they leave the building and get into Hanna’s car as Rachel keeps watching. Hanna drives past her, who quickly starts her car and follows them. She parks a block from where Hanna parks outside her home and spots the two get out and go inside holding hands before she exits her car. She runs to the home’s side path and looks into a small window, seeing them kissing in the living room. Hanna takes off her pants as he feels her breasts. He runs his hands down her thighs as she unbuttons and takes off her shirt as they keep kissing. He kisses her neck, takes off her bra, grabs and holds her buttocks and feels in her panties. “Oh yes, that’s it babe!” she says, grins and holds his head as he kisses her breasts and down her torso and grabs her hips. He squats to kiss her inner thighs and pulls off her panties before kissing her entire legs and hands. She shoves his face on her groin area so he can go down on her while holding her breasts. She says, “Yes, that feels so good!” Rachel sees this, but cannot hear her, as the window is soundproof and licks her lips in pleasure. Hanna yells, “Oh god! Yes!” before turning around and bending over. Rachel, seeing her buttocks pinches her breasts and rubs her thighs. Lindsay starts to kiss Hanna’s cheeks as she says, “I love it when you kiss my booty.” “Me also,” he says. Seeing Hanna hold his face between her cheeks, Rachel unknowingly puts her hand in her skirt, and fingers herself. Lindsay licks between Hanna’s cheeks, gives her a rim job and fingers her. She holds her breasts saying, “I’m about to cum!” He kisses up her back. Rachel leans her back on the house masturbating and moaning with her eyes closed. After seeing Hanna by the window with her back facing her, she gasps and bolts out of the path. Hanna sits on the sill. Lindsay sits on the sofa in front of her with his head between her legs going down on her as she holds him in and yells. She turns around kneeling on the sofa and holds the window as he kisses her buttock cheeks and runs his fingers between them. “I forgive you love,” she says. That night Rachel lies on her bed in a bra and panties with her eyes shut rubbing her torso and panting. She imagines Lindsay next to her kissing her lips and chin. He holds her breasts and kisses down her right arm and hand. She rubs her breasts in reality as she imagines him lifting up her bra to kiss and suck her breasts. He kisses down her stomach and sides. She says, “Oh you’re so good ooh!” She puts one hand in her panties and masturbates and feel her thighs. In her dream she bends her knees as Lindsay pulls off her panties to kiss her thighs. He then gives her oral and she holds his head in and shouts, “Oh god! I love this!!” She arches, bounces, and orgasms as she imagines him lifting her legs in the air and kisses down them from her feet after sucking her toes. He then kisses her buttock cheeks prior to sticking his tongue between them. “Keep doing that!!” she says. He fingers her vagina and anus and licks her buttock cheeks as she orgasms. She holds onto the bed’s back and yells, “You make my feel complete! Oooh!” She suddenly awakes, sits up, then breathes hard. She puts her arms on her knees with her head between them and cries. The next day, Rachel texts Hanna saying, “Hi, I just wanted to say that I’m very sorry for being nosy about you and Lindsay and wish you guys the best in your life together. I hope we are still friends.” Hanna is in her restroom in a sports bra and shorts watching Lindsay clean their tub when her phone on the counter rings. She sees Rachel’s text and replies, “Ok, thanks, yes we still are.” Lindsay sees her texting, goes to her and asks, “Who was that?” She says, “Rachel. She just said she was sorry for bothering us and swears not to do it again.” He says, “Oh, thank god!” and kisses Hanna and holds her body. “Are you done cleaning the tub?” she asks. He says, “No.” She asks, “What are you waiting for?” He looks sad and she asks, “Do you want to have sex with me tonight?” “Yeah,” he says. “So finish what you began,” she says and he resumes washing the tub. Rachel is relieved by Hanna’s text, but cannot get her and Lindsay out of her mind during spring break. While shopping at Macy’s in the city, she, Audrey and Charlene wait in a fitting room line with clothes and she looks at her phone thinking about calling Hanna. During a job interview at a day camp with the director Whitney, she has a vision of her and Lindsay fighting in their kitchen. She looks at old pictures of Hanna and her while babysitting a boy, Zooey at home for his mom, fixing a broken toy for him, but is paid. Lindsay fails to come to lab after the break. Suarez takes attendance, calling on a girl, Cory and a boy Rene as Rachel asks Susie and Tiffanie if they have heard from him and they have not. Her concerns grow after he misses both lecture meetings that week. In the second one, as the class waits for Lesser to come, the boy sitting behind Rachel, Meredith, tells her to mind her own business after noticing her always looking at Lindsay’s chair. Rachel calls Hanna that night yelling, “Where’s Lindsay?!” Confused Hanna, at her room in a t-shirt and pink panties, says, “Um, my kitchen, why?” “He wasn’t in class all week.” Rachel says. Hanna says, “I know. I’ve kept him home as his stomach is hurting and I don’t know why.” “Are you lying to me?” Rachel asks. “You are my best friend, why would I?” Hanna asks madly. Rachel says, “Every time I asked Lindsay about his recent injuries and isolate behavior in class, he acted like he was hiding something.” Hanna asks, “Why are we even talking about this? Didn’t you say you were sorry for nagging into our romance and that you would leave us alone?” Rachel says, “Well I know he is a genius who always studies, does his homework and has not missed a day of school since he was 8. It makes no sense for him to just suddenly do badly in class or not come at all. How you say he got hurt also does not add up.” Hanna says, “Sometimes stuff happens that we can’t control. What do you have against him that makes you complain non-stop about us being together?” Rachel tells her, “I have nothing against him. In fact I think he’s a great guy and you were right that he is really good at having sex with you upon seeing it myself.” Hanna says, “I told you! Wait what do you mean seeing it yourself?” Rachel says, “Shit!” “Rachel, what is going on?” Hanna asks. “I spied on you and him making out in your house three weeks ago,” she says. Hanna gasps, yelling, “You did what?!” Rachel says, “I followed you guys after school and looked through a side window.” Hanna shouts, “Oh my god how could you?!” “I had to be sure what was going on with you, plus it was great to see he was as good as you said he was. That night I even touched myself, dreaming of him doing to me what he did to you,” Rachel says. Hanna yells, “That’s it, I do not know why you’re doing this or what you want from us, but stop following or harassing us or our friendship is over, you got it?!” “Hey wait…,” Rachel says.
