Chapter seven
By Chrissy and Peyton
Harper woke up the next day feeling refreshed but then again it was Saturday and she had slept in. Annika had slept in too and was still asleep. Harper thought she remembered Annika saying something to her the night before and kissing her but she was too far gone to remember completely so she thought she was imaging it.
She quietly got up and dressed before Annika heard her and rolled over. "You're not leaving without me, are you?" Annika sleepily said.
"If you don't get that gorgeous ass out of bed and get up I might," Harper responded.
"Aww you think my ass is gorgeous," Annika said wiggling her ass in bed.
Harper didn't say anything but watched Annika wiggle her ass then turned as she was getting thoughts of what she could do with that ass. Just then they heard a banging on the door.
"What the fuck?" Harper said as she jumped from the sound as someone loudly pounded on the door.
"Oh go away," Annika moaned and pulled the pillow over her head hoping whoever was there would stop the pounding and leave.
Harper opened the door to see who was banging on their door and as soon as she opened it Julie and Sarah barged in each giving a kiss to Harper's cheek. Seeing Annika still in bed they ran over and jumped on Annika. "Get off of me you lards," she moaned.
"Why is she still in bed? You didn't get her up yet?" Sarah said looking at Harper.
"She was too busy looking at my gorgeous ass," Annika laughed.
"Well she does have one," Harper replied.
"Let's see," Julie said and pulled the sheets down exposing Annika's ass though she did have pajamas on. Julie and Sarah began to squeeze then spank Annika on the ass until she had to put her hands behind herself and roll over to protect her ass.
"Hey, hey, too hard. That stings," Annika said as she sat up.
"Get up sleepy head. We have plans for the day," Sarah said to Annika and Harper.
"What are we doing?" Harper asked.
"Nothing, we were hoping you two had something to do so that we could tag along," Julie said and laughed.
"Well I'm going to breakfast. I don't know about you three," Harper replied.
"That's a start," Sarah responded.
"I'm in, we can talk plans over breakfast," Julie said.
As they all prepared to go to breakfast, Annika quickly got out of bed taking clothes with her into the bathroom. "Wait for me," she said.
"Hurry your gorgeous ass up," Julie called out.
Annika stuck her head out of the bathroom door laughing, "Harper paybacks are hell. Now they will be saying that all day."
Harper looked from Julie to Sarah to the closed bathroom door laughing, "Don't look at me, you didn't have to tell them what I said."
Then Harper added, "Besides you can't pay me back for telling the truth."
"She has you there, Annika," Julie laughed.
Annika yelled through the door, "Don't all of you go all lesbo on me. It's bad enough putting up with Harper."
The three of them laughed as they found a way to make fun of Harper's admission.
A few minutes later Annika came out wearing a long t-shirt with gym shorts underneath with sandals. "God, I look a mess."
As she walked past Harper going out the door, Harper commented low enough for only Annika could hear, "You never looked more beautiful."
Annika turned towards Harper, kissing her on the cheek and tapping Harper's nose with her index finger. She smiled at Harper as she passed by her on the way out.
The four walked over to the cafeteria to get breakfast and make plans for the day. That day and for the next few days, every chance the three of them could they were making fun of Annika's ass.
Three more weeks went by and Thanksgiving was the following week. Harper and the gang who had made it a habit of eating together were just finishing up when Bailey came over to their table. "Hi, do any of you mind if I sit down?"
"Ah no, I suppose. We were about to leave though," Harper told Bailey.
"Hi, I'm Julie," Julie said looking at Bailey and holding her hand out to Bailey.
"And I'm Sarah, Harper's friends," both Sarah and Julie said to let Bailey know they weren't going to let anything happen to Harper.
Bailey looked at Sarah and Julie who were sitting across from Harper then over at Annika who was sitting next to Harper and smiled saying hi back to them.
"Harper, are you going home for Thanksgiving?" Bailey asked.
"Yeah I will be leaving sometime Tuesday after my last class, why?" Harper questioned.
"I was hoping to get together and talk some more if you would like," Bailey said.
"I'm going to be busy through Thursday then I'm going over to Rachel's until I come back here,"
Harper told her.
"Any way I can get you to delay your trip home until Wednesday," Bailey begged Harper.
"I suppose I can," Harper said.
"Great, I'll meet you in the library at this exit around five if that is alright?" Bailey proposed and got up to leave.
"She doesn't say much," Julie said.
"What did you expect? She was outnumbered and felt intimidated," Annika said feeling sorry for Bailey. "You two were like vultures hanging on to every word waiting to pounce if she said anything wrong to Harper."
"It's alright," Harper defending both Julie and Sarah. "I know I can count on them to cover my back in time of need."
"And you can't count on me?" asked Annika somewhat indignantly.
"No, I didn't mean it that way. I always know I can count on you. Up until now I wasn't sure how much support I had. Now I know I have the three of the best friends a roommate can find and can always count on," Harper said as she put her arm around Annika's shoulders.
Harper was in the library at five on Tuesday as requested by Bailey. Bailey came up behind Harper surprising her. She put her hands on Harper's waist and kissed the nape of her neck surprising Harper even more. On reflex Harper purred a little bit tilting her head over to give Bailey room to kiss her more. "If that isn't Rachel then I'm in real trouble and someone else is in real trouble too," Harper said.
"No, it's not Rachel. Why would you say that? She doesn't even go to school here," Bailey exclaimed.
"Because she is my girlfriend and the only one that is allowed to kiss me like that," Harper replied.
Bailey took Harper by the hand and led her into one of the private reading rooms. As she turned around towards Harper, she kissed Harper on the lips wrapping her one hand around Harper's neck and the other on her side.
Harper was defenseless against Bailey and she knew it. As much as she tried her will power was helpless from Bailey's kisses. She allowed Bailey to kiss her and actually moaned into the kiss as it ended.
"I was afraid you wouldn't allow me to kiss you having a girlfriend already, so the only way I could get away with it was to surprise you. You still have my heart Harper and your kisses are to die for," Bailey said. "I would try again but now that the surprise is over, I don't think you would let me, would you?"
Harper stood there and all she could do was slightly shake her head no. After an awkward minute she softly and hesitantly said, "I can't. I have a girlfriend who I love very much."
"Yes, I know and she is very pretty and very smart. How is she doing at school?" Bailey asked changing the subject.
"She is doing fine. She is working on a four-point-o," Harper replied.
"She is smart academically and also because she has you as her girlfriend. What do you see in me, Harper? After all these years why do you still find me attractive when I treated you like shit in school?" Bailey questioned.
Harper didn't know how to respond to a question like that and she wasn't sure she should but this was Bailey and she had wanted to be truthful and honest with her. "Bailey I think you are beautiful and smart, maybe not as smart as Rachel, but most people aren't that smart. I have always found you to be kind and fun to be around. You have an air about you that I am attracted to," Harper said letting her guard down and opening up to Bailey.
"Then why aren't we together?" Bailey asked wanting to know.
"Simply because I have lived enough of my life in the closet already, I'm not about to live that way again for me or for anyone else. I'm sorry Bailey but your personality won't allow you to be who you really are. You have to be the most popular, the most liked and the center of attention and that doesn't mean the same thing to me. It is all well and good to be liked and popular but not at the cost of not being able to love who you want to love," Harper said laying it on the line to Bailey.
"Thank you for being honest with me, Harper. Now I know what it will take to have you back in my arms again," Bailey reasoned.
"You're forgetting one detail. I have a girlfriend already, who I love and she loves me. I'm not about to give her up because you show some affection, bat your eyes and think I will come running back to you," Harper said.
"What will it take?" Bailey asked.
"The only thing that is important at this moment is Rachel. There is no discussion without her being the most important thing to me," Harper couldn't make it any clearer to Bailey than this.
"Would you allow me to go out with you not on a date but with a group of people sometime?" Bailey questioned.
"Your group? The same ones who ridiculed and bullied me in high school? No fucking way. I have no use for any of them," Harper stated emphatically.
"What about your group?" Bailey persisted.
"I don't see that happening anytime soon," Harper said smiling.
"Why did you bad mouth me to them?" Bailey inquired concerned what Harper had said remembering the time Rachel had mentioned having to disinfect her crutches.
"No, I didn't say anything bad. It's more what I didn't say." Harper stated. "They wanted to know who you were the other day and I told them about the accident and how I was treated by you and your friends afterwards."
"They probably hate me now," Bailey said out loud.
"I don't think they hate you. But they sure questioned your motives afterwards," Harper explained.
"That's a nice way of saying they hate me," Bailey replied.
"Maybe once they get to know you they will change their mind?" Harper said giving Bailey hope that Harper's friends would like her. "Annika doesn't hate you but she sure questioned how you could be so insensitive and didn't come to my defense afterwards. Julie and Sarah well that's a different story and let's say you have your work cut out to deserve their friendship."
They talked for another hour then realizing it was late and close to dinner being over, decided to go over to the cafeteria for dinner. Harper thought to text Annika knowing she was staying the night because of the time it would take to drive home. Julie had already left leaving Sarah there with Annika.
When Harper asked Annika if she minded if another person came along there was no reply initially on Annika's end of the phone until, "Anything I should know before we get there?"
"No, just being friendly because of how late it is," was Harper's reply.
Annika sent back a heart emoji along with an ok followed by a question mark. "Expect questioning and stares from both of us."
Annika prepared Sarah so both wouldn't act surprised at seeing Bailey. The conversation was light to awkward until the group adjusted to Bailey's presence then they seemed to relax. After dinner Bailey told everyone Happy Thanksgiving and went her way and Sarah, Annika and Harper went theirs.
"She actually is kind of nice if you forget how she has treated you in the past, Harper," Sarah said.
"Yeah, I guess so," Harper contemplated.
"Don't let her get to you before you go home to Rachel. You don't need that to distract you and cause problems between you and Rachel. Remember prioritize. Rachel is your number one priority," Annika said taking Harper's hand in hers.
"Why can't you be gay and we could be girlfriends? Life would be so much easier and not as complex," Harper stated looking at Annika with pleading eyes.
"Who said I was less complex?" Annika asked.
"Life seems to go smoother for you. You don't have all of these issues as I do," Harper stated.
"Prioitize, handle what is most important to you. Everything else will fall in line. I tell you it puts everything in perspective and makes life easier to deal with," Annika told Harper.
"So why do you have such a fine ass? Just saying," Harper said smiling and squeezed Annika's hand.
"You won't forget about my ass will you?" Annika laughed as they walked.
As they walked down the hallway they each hugged Sarah at her door wishing her a Happy Thanksgiving.
Harper drove to her parent's home the next day. Her head was full of thoughts of Rachel, Bailey and even Annika. She felt she couldn't go wrong whichever way she went but Rachel was the only one who had come out and to Harper that was paramount. She focused on thoughts of Rachel and what it was going to be like with her again.
Rachel had called Harper to make sure she had made it home safe and sound and to tell her she couldn't wait until the next day and they could be together.
Rachel seeing Harper drive up the next day, rushed out to see her almost knocking Harper down as she wrapped her in her arms peppering her with kisses. She and Harper swung each other around in their arms they were so happy to see each other. As they came in the house even Mrs. McCarthy gave Harper a kiss on the cheek with a hug that was a little more than a mom would normally hug her.
"We've missed you Harper. School years are hard on us parents too. We don't have our daughters around anymore and soon you will be all grown up and moving out. The house will get lonely without you all," Mrs. McCarthy told Harper.
"I missed you too, Mrs. McCarthy," Harper responded.
They sat around the table catching up and telling each other about college life, Rachel holding Harper's hand the whole time.
They had been exchanging kisses throughout the day as they talked but Rachel had other things on her mind and right after dinner she took Harper into her bedroom and as fast as she could took her clothes off leaving Harper standing there still unbuttoning her blouse.
"Come on, what are you waiting for? Get those clothes off so I can get to that sexy body of yours," Rachel said to Harper with her eyes glistening.
Harper finished taking her clothes off and got in bed the two of them hugging and kissing like they hadn't seen each other in months which they hadn't.
"Oh god, I missed you Harper," Rachel moaned as she rolled on top of Harper.
Her hand immediately went to Harper's breast first cupping the whole breast then squeezing it lightly. Harper moaned and stuck her chest out as if to say more please. Rachel found Harper's nipple teasing it between her thumb and forefinger pinching it lightly making Harper moan. Harper used her hand to slide down Rachel's waist going between her legs and finding Rachel's mound then her clit.
Rachel moaned into Harper's mouth breaking the kiss they were exchanging. Harper's fingers moved lower easily spreading Rachel's labia and sliding into her pussy. "God you are so wet already," Harper whispered.
"I missed you and have been thinking of us doing this all day," Rachel moaned to Harper. "I missed those fingers of yours inside of me. I so needed this. I won't last long with you inside of me. No one can make me cum the way you do."
Harper took the hint and between curling them inside of Rachel and using her thumb on Rachel's clit she was able to bring her to an orgasm quickly. It came to Rachel so fast she wasn't prepared for it and her body shuttered and tightened as she tried to keep contact with Harper's mouth as she kissed Rachel. Harper allowed Rachel the time she needed to let her orgasm flow through her body then she eased back on her fingers pulling them out and running them around Rachel's labia.
"I didn't expect that to happen that fast. You have a way of making me cum like no other," Rachel softly said to Harper as she ran her fingers across Harper's cheek the other still on her breast.
"You bring it out of me. I missed you more than ever," Harper softly said.
Between the kisses and hands to each other's cheeks they loved on each other. Rachel moved her mouth lower to Harper's neck and kissed and sucked on her lightly before she moved from her shoulder to her upper chest. Harper lifted her chest up knowing Rachel was going to suck on her breast which Rachel did first to one side then to the other letting her tongue twirl each nipple before kissing it and moving to the other one.
Harper moaned each time Rachel kissed her nipple keeping her chest raised until Rachel moved lower to Harper's stomach then she lowered her chest looking down at Rachel who was smiling as she kissed Harper's stomach. Harper tried to say fuck to Rachel but her eyes closed and all that came out was "fu..oh god," as Rachel's mouth licked Harper's clit.
Rachel twirled her tongue on Harper's clit before she sucked it into her mouth. She moved lower and with her tongue licked Harper's pussy. Harper gasped and with her head back tried to reach Rachel's head to hold it to her pussy. She instead reached for air then her mound.
Rachel continued to alternate from licking to sucking Harper as her orgasm was mounting. Rachel kept a continuous tempo up alternating sucking and licking Harper's pussy to her clit until she could feel Harper near her peak. She concentrated on Harper's clit as she sucked harder twirling her tongue faster until she could feel Harper's orgasm release and Harper's whole body shake as she came.
"Oh fuck, agghhh, Racheeell," Harper squealed as she came. Immediately after her body quit contracting she pulled Rachel up to her and the two kissed passionately neither caring Rachel's mouth and lips were coated with Harper's pussy juices.
After Harper had caught her breath she told Rachel, "Turn around so we can do each other."
"I never thought you would ask," Rachel said with a smile and turned so she was reversed from Harper. This time instead of one on top of the other they were on their sides.
They each kissed the other between the legs then moved over kissing the other's pussy before they used their tongues and mouths to eat each other to two more orgasms before they were satisfied. They moved back so they were facing each other placing their arms over and around each other kissing each other until they eventually fell asleep.
Saturday was much the repeat of Friday. Harper and Rachel got up and after a quick love making session of fingering each other followed by eating each other they were up and about. Rachel had wanted to go to this store she hadn't been to since before school started so she and Harper went there. Though they didn't find much they did run into Aunt Mary while they were there. Mary talked them into having a late lunch with her.
"How is school, Rachel?" Mary asked.
"It started out rough. I think I was homesick up there all alone and not knowing anyone but I try to keep busy to take my mind off it. I'm definitely not looking forward to my first winter up there. With all the snow being stuck in that dorm room isn't appealing to me," Rachel stated.
"Well I'm sure you will find something to do to keep you busy. What about you Harper?" she asked.
It's been a blast so far but then it couldn't have been any worse than my high school," Harper told her.
"I can imagine. Not having any problems with bullying and ridiculing since you are there?" Mary asked knowing the trouble Harper experienced in high school.
"No it's been great. I don't see many from my high school and it's like they don't notice me when we do see each other. I chalk it up to a high school phase and know they have other things to concern them about," Harper said. "I also have a great roommate who I get along with super well even though she is straight and her friends don't seem to care that I'm gay either. They are sort of my protectors and have been very vocal watching out for me," Harper explained.
"Everyone needs someone to stand up for them especially when you are away from home in a strange location as the two of you are," Mary said looking at Rachel.
They finished lunch and said goodbye to Mary as Rachel and Harper went back to shopping for the rest of the day. As they were getting ready for bed they noticed Rachel's mom and dad having fun in the room next to them so Harper and Rachel stopped, smiled at each other and listened to them. Apparently they were using a fantasy of Rachel's mom to make love and it involved some other women whose name Rachel was not familiar with but it was one that both of her parents knew very well. It seemed her parents had been having a good time while Rachel had been away at college.
Rachel was brought out of her thoughts about her parents and someone else when Harper latched onto her nipple and began to suck it. Harper looked up at Rachel and asked her if she wanted Harper to leave her with a going away gift like she had before. Rachel smiled telling Harper, "Please, make this one last."
Harper moved up to Rachel's neck kissing it softly and nibbling on her ear before she moved down to the crease between the neck and shoulder. She kissed it a few times then she sucked in the skin while biting down on it. She released that spot and moved slightly back repeating it again knowing she was leaving a big spot on Rachel's neck.
Rachel moaned and with her own hand was rubbing her pussy. Harper noticed what she was doing and watched for a minute then swatted Rachel's hand away. "You can't do that unless I tell you." Rachel moaned but took her hand away but she kept moving her hips up and down as if she was pumping at air.
Harper moved lower until she was at Rachel's breast kissing all around them including her areolas which she bit slightly then released them. She then sucked the side of Rachel's breast into her mouth biting the flesh at the same time. Rachel moaned and gasped as this part hurt as much as it felt good. Harper repeated it on the other side of the same breast then repeated it on the next breast each time Rachel moaning until on the second breast Rachel moaned, "Oh god, I'm cumming and forced Harper's hand to her pussy rubbing it through her orgasm.
Rachel hadn't gotten over her surprising orgasm, when Harper moved lower again positioning herself between Rachel's legs and kissed Rachel's pussy, her mound and to each side. She kissed at the juncture of her legs and pussy sucking in Rachel's skin and biting down. Then she repeated it on the other side. Finally Harper rolled Rachel over kissing her butt cheeks then sucked on both cheeks biting each leaving Rachel with hickeys everywhere on her body.
Harper moved up next to Rachel placing her hand on Rachel's pussy as she kissed Rachel's waiting mouth. Her fingers slid into a very wet pussy and she moved them back and forth causing Rachel to moan, "oh fuck, yes, oh fuck,..fuck,...fuck." After her multiple orgasms, Rachel lay there panting catching her breath for several minutes.
"Holy shit, what did you do to me?" You had me cumming that seemed to last forever," Rachel gasped. "I must have came at least four or five times in a row!"
Harper kissed Rachel again placing her head on her shoulder, "I want you to remember that you belong to me," which was a reminder more to Harper than to Rachel. Rachel had given her no indication of cheating or wanting to cheat but with Bailey and Annika at school, Harper wasn't sure she wasn't sure she wouldn't be tempted.
"Of course I remember. How could I forget?" Rachel said kissing Harper.
Rachel moved her hand between Harper's legs. "I'm not the only one who is soaking wet."
"Mmmm, that is because of you. Ohhhh, yes, more of that and I'll be cumming as much as you," Harper moaned.
Rachel sucked Harper's breast into her mouth as she continued to finger Harper making her moan. Harper laid her head back, her hand grabbing the bed sheets as Rachel brought her quickly to an orgasm.
After they kissed and held each other they closed their eyes and slept.
The next day Rachel had to get up early as she had an early flight. Harper stayed until Rachel had to leave though it was a long drive having to add an extra hour from Rachel's.
They kissed and cried as Rachel left each telling the other how much they loved the other and how much they would miss them even though they would be seeing each other in a little over three weeks. Harper was sad when she left but not as sad as when Rachel had left the first time. Then she didn't know what to expect as she arrived at school. This time was different as she looked forward to seeing Annika, Sarah and Julie. She even had to admit she looked forward to seeing Bailey again.
When Harper arrived at school things were quiet. As she walked down the hall Julie walked out of her room.
"Harper!" she yelled seeing Harper. The two embraced happy to see each other.
"Is Sarah back yet?" Harper asked.
"No she won't be in until tonight," Julie said still with her arm around Harper. "Let me help you with your things and we can catch up. Did you have fun seeing your girlfriend?"
"Hell yes, we had fun. It was great to see her," Harper said as she opened the door to her dorm. "Still the same as I left it. I was hoping the maid would have come in and cleaned while I was gone," Harper joked.
"Yeah they need to fire the maids and get new ones who leave those cookies on your pillows at night," Julie laughed.
Harper put her things away which included clean laundry since she had gone home. About the time she finished the door opened and Annika walked in. "Annika!" Julie cried out and ran to her hugging her.
"I saw your roomie out in the parking lot unloading," Annika told Julie.
"Thanks, I should go help her. When we get unpacked we should all get together," Julie said as she ran out the door to go help Sarah.
"How was your big weekend with Rachel?" Annika asked Harper after Julie had left.
"It couldn't have been better. I went over to see her on Friday and stayed until Sunday morning when she had to leave," Harper told Annika.
"It must be a letdown having to leave her and come back here?" Annika asked.
"You know, I was thinking that on my way here. Coming to State the first time I was nervous and sad having to leave everyone behind, but this time when I left I was sad to leave but at the same time I was anxious to get back to see you, Julie and Sarah. Believe it or not I was anxious to see Bailey again. That little devil has grown on me," Harper said with a laugh.
"Prioritize, Harper, remember Rachel comes first. Don't forget what Bailey did to you," Annika preached to Harper.
"Tell me about your holiday?" Harper asked.
"Much too short. Mostly family. But it was nice, I enjoyed it," Annika stated.
After the girls unpacked they went down to the cafeteria to eat. Sarah brought up that they ate with Bailey the night before they left and Julie had to hear about it mostly coming from Sarah with either Annika or Harper setting the record straight as Sarah had a tendency to embellish one way or the other. By the end of dinner Sarah along with Julie had decided they liked Bailey but she needed to apologize to Harper in front of them and be more transparent about her sexuality.
Harper reminded them she had a girlfriend in Rachel and she didn't need to get involved with someone else. Julie and Sarah told Harper it wouldn't hurt having someone who was gay to talk to now and then if things with Rachel went south. Annika gave Harper a nodding head as she reached out taking Harper's hand in hers as she often did.
The next three weeks were taken up with finals as the fall semester came to an end. They each finished at different times on different days depending on their testing schedules so goodbyes were spread out. They each managed to meet and say goodbye to each other before they left.
Annika and Harper's goodbye was particularly touching as they hugged hard and tears came out of both of them.
"I'm going to miss you. Stay safe and have a great holiday. See you in three and a half weeks," Harper told Annika.
When Annika went to kiss Harper she made a point to turn Harper's head to hers giving Harper a soft but passionate kiss on her lips. She ran her hand across Harper's cheek telling Harper, "See you in three weeks," and walked out the door.
Harper was left alone in her dorm room pondering the kiss Annika had given her. "Stay safe," Harper whispered to herself after Annika had left.
The new year gave way to new classes to attend and a new schedule they each would have to follow. Unlike the previous semester Julie and Harper had a class together. It was the first one any of them shared but one each of their majors required.
At the beginning of February on Friday before class Harper received a phone call from Rachel. Harper took the call knowing it had to be important for Rachel to call during the day. Harper asked Julie to take notes while she talked with Rachel. When Harper got off from the call class was mostly finished. It was lecture day so Julie took notes for Harper as she had requested. Harper was in tears and as Julie walked out she could see Harper had been crying. She rushed over to Harper to see what had happened and Harper looked at Julie and began to bawl.
"She broke up with me," Harper cried.
"What? Why? I thought you two were going strong and having no problems," Julie exclaimed. Since it was their last class of the day Julie helped Harper walk back to her dorm. As they past Julie's and Sarah's room Julie banged on the door and kept walking going towards Harper's room.
Sarah who was inside the room flung the door open to see who was banging on her door. She could see Harper crying and being helped by Julie and she knew this couldn't be good so she ran after them. "What happened?" she questioned as Harper opened her door.
"Rachel broke up with Harper," Julie told Sarah.
"Shit, why?" Sarah asked.
"I don't know yet. We haven't got that far," Julie explained.
"She broke up with me," Harper said and kept crying.
"I know honey, I know. Why did she break up with you?" Julie asked putting her arm around Harper.
"She says she is in love with another person and I would understand. She says she came up to visit her because she was homesick and they have been together for more than a month. She is moving to be with her," Harper cried.
"Honey, you are not making any sense, who came up to visit and who is moving to be with whom?" Sarah asked.
'Her Aunt Mary," Harper tried to state between the tears.
"Her Aunt Mary? What the fuck has been going on up in those mountains?" Sarah stated forgetting that was where Harper was from.
"I know it sounds bad but it wasn't. Before I was dating Rachel, she and her aunt were seeing each other. They were going to move in together once Rachel left for college but Rachel decided she had fallen in love with me. Her aunt thought it was best if Rachel dated someone her own age, so Rachel and I kept seeing each other. But when Rachel got homesick, her aunt came to visit and now she says she loves her more than me," Harper explained and started crying again.
"'I'm still confused by this aunt thing? Honey, that's incest and not only is it against the law but it's not morally right," Sarah said sitting on the floor with her hands on Harper's knees.
"It was a relative but by marriage not blood," Harper said.
"Still close enough. You're better off without her," Sarah said shaking her head at the thought.
"Sarah's right. You are better off away from that situation," Julie said and rolled her eyes in agreement with Sarah.
Annika came walking in shortly thereafter and as soon as she saw Harper crying with Julie on one side and Sarah at her feet she dropped her backpack and ran to Harper, "Oh my god, what happened?" she asked.
"Rachel broke up with Harper. Did you know Rachel was seeing her own aunt?" Sarah immediately asked.
"No, I didn't know Rachel was seeing anyone other than Harper," Annika said and came over to Harper sitting on her other side. Annika took Harper's hand in hers and with the other one blotted her cheeks drying them. Harper laid her head on Annika's shoulder.
"I loved her so much," Harper said to Annika.
"I know you did sweetheart," Annika kissing the top of Harper's head, "We will get through this." She looked at Sarah and mouthed "with her aunt?"
Sarah nodded as Annika rolled her eyes too.
Sarah and Julie stayed with Annika and Harper being it was Friday night before they went back to their room leaving Annika and Harper alone. Annika told Harper to put her pajamas on and while she waited she moved her bed over next to Harper's. Harper came out of the bathroom looking confused. "You need someone to sleep next to you tonight. I can move them back tomorrow," Annika explained seeing the confusion on Harper's face.
"Thank you, I really wasn't looking forward to sleeping alone tonight," as she hugged Annika kissing her on the cheek.
They crawled in bed with Annika spooning Harper who had her back to her. Annika kissed Harper on the cheek. "I'm here for you always Harper," Annika whispered in Harper's ear. Harper rolled over looking into Annika's eyes, placing her hand to Annika's cheek bringing her mouth closer until their lips touched and Harper kissed her. Annika allowed the kiss but then moved Harper away from her lips and face placing her fingers to Harper's mouth. "We can't, it's not right." Annika whispered to Harper.
Harper and Annika stared at each other alternating looking from their lips to their eyes. "Go to sleep. Things will look different for you tomorrow," Annika softly said and laid her head against Harper's back.
The next day Julie and Sarah knocked on Annika and Harper's door. Julie asked quietly, "How is she?" as Annika opened door.
'Not much better," Annika responded. "She tossed and turned all night in between the sobs."
"Is she up for breakfast?" Sarah asked.
"Whether she is or not, she needs to get something in her stomach and to get out of here. It will do her some good," Annika said. She opened the door to let Julie and Sarah in and they could see Harper sitting on the edge of both beds which Annika had pushed together. Harper's eyes were looking puffy and swollen from crying.
"Come on sweetie, get dressed. We're taking you to breakfast at a real restaurant off campus," Annika told all three so the other two were aware they were going.
Harper moaned but she knew better than to complain as it was three to one and she was the one. She got up going into the bathroom to see what she could do with her face and hair.
Annika came into the bathroom and turned her around, "Your hair we can brush out but there is only so much I can do for your eyes until the puffiness goes away," She said taking out her eyeliner, foundation and concealer and applying them to Harper's eyes. After she was through she looked at Harper, "That's the best I can do for now," and kissed Harper on the nose.
"Thank you, I don't know what I would do without you," Harper said.
"Anytime roomy, like I said, I'll always be there to pick up the pieces," Annika smiled.
By the end of breakfast Harper was in a much better frame of mind but Annika knew she was on the verge of breaking down again which is why she held Harper's hand through most of breakfast. Julie and Sarah didn't mind because if they had been sitting next to Harper they would be doing the same thing too. Between the issue with Bailey and how they treated Harper in high school and now with Rachel, Harper had managed to find the best friends at State college.
It would be a month and a half later when they came back from spring break that Harper hit rock bottom. They had noticed that spring break had been hard on Harper. She had spent spring break at home alone and missing Rachel had not done her any favors. She had withdrawn from all three never wanting to go out staying in her room or at the library studying to avoid the three. Apparently the breakup with Rachel had more of an effect on her than anyone had anticipated. Spring break had been especially hard as Harper would have spent that time with Rachel. Harper even quit going to dinner with the three on most days.
"Is Harper bailing on us again tonight," Julie asked.
"Your guess is as good as mine. I've tried everything I know to boost her spirits. She has rejected everything I've tried," Annika said exasperated. "I feel like taking her out and shaking her telling her to get over it. It's Rachel's loss not Harper's. If I was looking for a girlfriend, Harper would be exactly what I would be looking for," Annika said sounding pissed.
"You go girl. If you were into girls you and Harper would be a perfect match," Sarah laughed.
"Well it pisses me off. A gorgeous girl inside and out gets her mind messed up by someone like Rachel," Annika stated.
They tried the best they could to come up with a solution for Harper. Without Rachel they were stumped. A week later and Harper was still moping around. Rachel had been Harpers true love and there was no denying it. Getting over her was going to take time and effort from everyone. Sarah was the first to come up with an idea.
"Hey I have an idea what we can do with Harper," she began to tell them at dinner one night when Harper had bailed on them again.
"What is it?" Julie asked.
"Yeah, what kind of plan have you up come up with because I'm all out of ideas?" Annika asked.
Sarah looked over Annika's shoulder at a table towards the back. "Who are you looking at?" Julie asked.
"Could our solution be right over there?" Sarah asked.
"Who, Bailey? They have too much history. I'm not sure they even like each other," Julie said.
"They do," Annika stated. "I know Bailey still has feelings for Harper and Harper deep down although she won't admit it, Bailey was and is Harper's childhood crush."
"Who knows them well enough to talk to her about Harper?" Julie asked.
"Sarah," Annika stated right away. "Julie doesn't know her other than that one time. I'm Harper's roomy and have too close of an arrangement with Harper. Sarah has talked with her a few times over dinner and even said she liked Bailey," Annika reasoned.
"What would I say to her?" Sarah asked.
"You said you see her every other day as she has a class next to yours. The next time you see her mention we're going out this weekend to help Harper get over her breakup from Rachel," Annika said.
"You're devious, but it might work," Sarah thought out loud.
"Now I have to convince Harper to go out," Annika pondered.
That week Sarah made it a point to stop and talk with Bailey and it just so happened that Harper's name came up during the conversation and how coincidently the four of them were going out because of Harper.
On Thursday Annika was talking to Harper and mentioned getting the top grade in not one but two of her classes, Business Law and Fundamentals of Management. She wanted to go out and celebrate this weekend and would like for Harper to go with her. It would mean everything to have her best friend to celebrate such an accomplishment. She even promised Harper she would save a slow dance for her.
Harper relented because this was something special for Annika and it would mean a lot to her if Harper went.
Friday night they all kept an eye on Harper with the other watching for Bailey. Bailey hadn't been there long when Sarah spotted her. Bailey shortly thereafter spotted Harper and the other girls. Sarah saw Bailey making her way towards them and Sarah made sure Harper had her back to Bailey. As Bailey walked up she put her hand on Harper's back and whispered over Harper's shoulder, "I'm sorry to hear about you and Rachel. She was not only pretty but she was very nice. I know what it's like to lose the one you are in love with, so if you want to talk I'm available. Even if you don't want to talk, I'm right here for you. We can stand or sit outside and you can say whatever it is you want and I'll listen and only answer if you have a question" Bailey said.
Harper looked at Bailey for a minute then all of her sorrow came back to her. She hugged Bailey shedding a few tears saying, "Thank you, I could use someone's ear to bend to right now."
"Do you want to go outside on the patio?" Bailey asked.
"No, I would rather leave and go somewhere where we can talk. Too much distraction here," Harper stated.
Bailey took Harper to a local restaurant where it was quieter. "Harper, I am truly sorry about you and Rachel. As much as I should hate her, I really did like her. You two were good for each other."
"Thank you, that means a lot to me. More so because it comes from you as much as you and I have been through. Where did we go wrong?" Harper asked.
"Well I would like to say you had a hand in it, but it was all my fault and I take the blame for everything that has happened between us. But right now I thought we were talking about you and Rachel?" Bailey questioned.
"I don't think we can talk about one without the other," Harper replied.
"You'll have to explain because you lost me there," Bailey stated.
"You see, I've had a crush on you since we were in grade school. I met Rachel summer before our senior year and while I still had this crush on you, thinking you were out of my league. You were a cheerleader, and were very popular. While I was a no body, who didn't stand out not to mention I thought you were straight," Harper explained.
"That's not true. I've always noticed you and you were never a no body at least to me," Bailey said.
"I thought you were going to listen and let me talk," Harper smiled at Bailey.
"Sorry, go ahead," Bailey smiled and let Harper talk.
"When the summer ended Rachel and I were dating. I didn't know it at the time but she had been seeing her aunt and they were together. Her aunt told her she wanted Rachel to see girls her own age to experience life with and they would move in together after her freshman year of college. After the accident I thought I had fallen in love with you and told Rachel. She was happy for me but since you were not going to come out until after high school, Rachel and I continued seeing each other since the people we loved were taken at the time."
"Then you treated me so poorly after that I was messed up and Rachel was there to pick up the pieces. She told me to stand tall and be proud of who I was and don't cowl to any bullies which is why you saw me at the basketball games. I soon after fell in love with her and finally by the end of the summer said she had fallen in love with me and we didn't want us to part. She even said she had told her aunt who wished us well," Harper explained.
"What I didn't intend to happen was she got homesick and because I was going to college here, she had her aunt come up and, well soon after that they were living together," Harper said.
"Do you still love her?" Bailey asked.
"You know, I'm not sure. I thought I did but all along I knew she and her aunt were going to end up together. She told me as much. I was just a distraction until her aunt was ready to move and Rachel was out of her parent's house," Harper thought.
"Why don't you give her a call and talk to her about it. Maybe you'll find there isn't as much hurt as you think but a big misunderstanding. Maybe she is hurting too for the way she ended it and the two of you can agree it was time to end the relationship but not the friendship," Bailey told Harper.
"Thanks Bailey, that's a good idea," Harper thought.
"Maybe at the same time, look in there and see if there is room in there for me to be your friend too," Bailey commented.
"You've always been my friend and more. Ego's, personality and social status have seemed to have gotten in the way," Harper stated.
"Too much to put aside for one night? Enough for you to take me home and make love to me? I don't have a roommate for the weekend and I don't have a broken leg you have to be concerned with. I can be on top this time," Bailey smiled as she took Harper's hand in hers.
"No, you don't have to do this for me," Harper said as Bailey led her out of the restaurant.
"I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this for me. I'm doing this for us. I've waited three fourths of the school year for this time. Call me selfish but whether you like it or not you are going to make love to me too. We can argue over semantics and selfishness later. Besides it's not like you're going kicking and screaming. You can't use the girlfriend excuse this time," Bailey said as she held Harper's hand.
At the dorm, Bailey led Harper into her room. As she closed the door Bailey turned around and hugging Harper kissed her passionately which was all it took for Harper's resistance to break down. She was surprised at Bailey's assertiveness too. Harper could let Bailey take control and that she did.
Bailey kissed Harper hard on the mouth while she lifted Harpers pullover shirt up breaking the kiss long enough to pull it over Harper's head. Before Harper could even put her arms down, Bailey had Harper's bra off and was cupping both of Harper's breasts.
Harper moaned as Bailey unfastened Harper's jeans and was pushing them down over Harper's hips. "Oh god I've wanted you for so long, I can't wait to have you," Bailey said as she pushed Harper onto her bed. Bailey then pulled her top off along with her bra and fell on the bed with Harper.
"You are anxious aren't you," Harper laughed at Bailey.
"I'm horny, I'm desirous for you, I'm tired of waiting and Harper can't emphasize this enough, I am so in love with you. If that isn't reason enough to be anxious I don't know what is," Bailey said. "A year and a half ago we made love on that mountain and ever since I have been regretting leaving you there. I now have you here with me and I don't intend to waste one more minute not showing you how much you mean to me," Bailey told Harper as she shed a tear of happiness.
Bailey's hand traced a line down Harper's side until it got to Harper's panties. Bailey then traced a line over to the waistband and slid her fingers underneath the center of Harper's panties cupping Harper's mound and onto her clit. Harper moaned and opened her legs up wider feeling Bailey's fingers running circles on her clit. "Oh god, that feels good," Harper moaned.
Bailey ran her fingers down farther spreading Harper's labia and finding her wet insides. Harper hugged Bailey tighter as Bailey's fingers penetrated her opening. Harper kissed Bailey harder and grabbed Bailey's head as Bailey continued to finger her. Harper's hand went down to reach Bailey's butt cheeks finding Bailey had yet to take her jeans off. She managed to undo Bailey's jeans enough to move her hands inside Bailey's jeans to her panties and over top of them.
Harper's hips were moving to the same movement of Bailey's hand inside of her and soon she could feel an orgasm building telling Bailey, "I'm going to cum. It's almost there, oh god, oh god, yes yes," then Harper exploded with her orgasm. Harper felt like her pussy was exploding then it moved up and over took her head as it worked its way through her. She hugged Bailey kissing her all over her face. "Wow where did you learn to do your fingers like that? No, never mind, it's none of my business," Harper said.
"Well believe it or not, everything I learned I learned from you. I've been saving myself for you and practicing on myself," Bailey replied.
"You've been saving yourself for me?" Harper said puzzled.
"Yes, after we were together, I couldn't see anyone else that would be any better. If there was, it wouldn't be someone who I could love as much as you. So all this time I have been waiting for you," Bailey said as she laid her chin on Harper's upper chest staring at Harper. "I know there are conditions and terms before you will agree to get back together, that is if you will have me. Whatever they are I am willing to do them, Harper. For tonight let's put everything aside and just make love."
Harper rolled Bailey over so she was on top and kissed her as passionately as Bailey had kissed her. "Take your jeans and panties off," Harper said softly to Bailey. As Bailey was removing her jeans Harper was busy kissing and nuzzling Bailey's neck making Bailey wild with passion. After Bailey removed her jeans and panties Harper immediately placed her hand on Bailey's lower abdomen. Because she wasn't fast enough lingering her hand there, Bailey took Harper's hand and moved it lower onto her own pussy.
Bailey though she placed Harper's hand there and knew it was coming gasped at the touch of Harper. "A year and a half since I have felt your fingers. How I've wasted so much time. Never again," Bailey moaned into Harper's ear.
Harper moved her fingers back and forth feeling her fingers getting wet from Bailey's labia. Bailey's labia opened up to her touch each time Harper's fingers went down and up. As Harper moved them down, she used her two middle fingers to enter Bailey up as far as they would go causing Bailey to gasp and her body to tense. "Oh god, Harper, oh!" Bailey moaned as she grabbed Harper's shoulders. "Yes, fuck me baby, oh god, yes!"
Harper pushed her fingers in and out with ease as Bailey was extremely wet her juices were dripping down with each motion from Harper. For Bailey it wasn't long until Harper had her nearing her peak and she let Harper know. Bailey hugged Harper hard and tried to kiss her mouth with passion but her climax rose to quick and all she could do was open her mouth to Harper while her body thrust up to meet Harper's fingers. "Oh fuck, oh god, Harper, oh yes!" she moaned as she dug her fingernails into Harper's back and her legs wrapped around Harper's thighs.
Bailey got control enough to pepper kisses on Harper's face and with her hand holding Harper's head running her fingers through Harper's hair. They lay there arm in arm holding each other gathering their breath.
Harper started to get up and Bailey panicked. "You're not leaving are you? What did I do wrong?" Bailey frantically asked.
Harper leaned over and kissed Bailey. "I'm not leaving you. I plan to spend the night. I need to let my roommate know I won't be there. She'll be worried," she told Bailey who looked relieved when Harper told her.
"I am with Bailey. Spending the night," Harper sent the text to Annika. A few moments later she received a reply. "Was worried. I'm happy for you," followed by two heart emojis. Harper didn't know if the emojis were meant for her or for her and Bailey but she didn't bother to ask.
Harper lay back down next to Bailey. She could tell Bailey was still rattled by her thinking Harper was going to leave. 'See I'm not leaving you," Harper said as she lay down.
Bailey wrapped her arms around Harper, "I was afraid I had done something again to drive you away. I thought I had lost you again!" Bailey said sounding worried.
"You haven't done anything wrong. Tonight couldn't have been more perfect. Thank you. You haven't lost me yet. But we do have things we need to discuss but they can wait until the morning," Harper softly stated.
"I know I have a lot to make up for but give me a chance. I'm trying," Bailey whispered to Harper.
Harper kissed Bailey and the two moaned and hugged as they kissed, both happy they had each other back in their lives.
Bailey moved so she was kissing Harper's neck and shoulder as Harper kissed Bailey's head. Bailey looked up at Harper smiled and whispered to her, "I love you." She moved lower so she was able to take Harper's breast into her mouth and suck on the nipple. Then she moved over to the other breast sucking it into her mouth and dragging her teeth across it as she let it go. Harper moaned as Bailey raked her nipple with her teeth. As Bailey moved lower Harper knew Bailey's intentions and laid her head on the pillow waiting to feel Bailey's mouth and tongue on her pussy.
Bailey kissed Harper's clit twirling her tongue around it as she went. She lowered herself more and used her fingers to open Harper up before she took a big lick with her tongue from the bottom to the top of Harper's pussy. Bailey pushed her tongue inside flicking it around before she sucked more juices from Harper. Bailey went down to get the juices at the bottom licking them from Harper's perineum causing Harper to moan. Harper was content to have Bailey lick her there and up farther but when she moved back up to Harper's clit and sucked it into her mouth Harper was beside herself in desire. She moaned and twisted her head back and forth as Bailey kept sucking her clit. "Oh, fuck, you're going to make me cum again."
Bailey sped up her sucking and inserted her finger inside of Harper at the same time knowing Harper liked that. Harper moaned and came with Bailey between her legs. She reached up with her pelvic area and wrapped her legs around Bailey's head and shoulders squeezing down on reflex not intending to hurt Bailey.
After Harper came Bailey waited a minute then asked Harper, "Harper, could you let go of my head? I'm having a hard time breathing."
"Oh, sorry," Harper gasped then laughed.
"No its okay. I know that means you enjoyed it."
"I'll say. Come up here. I want to do you," Harper stated.
"No tonight is about you. I owe you for that week and for not hating my guts after all that I did to you," Bailey said.
Bailey moved up on top of Harper as she talked. As she got to Harper's face, Harper told her, "This is the last night we will talk about the past and who did what to whom. I forgive you. No one owes anyone for the past. From this night on we will be even. Understood?"
"Yes, are you sure?" Bailey questioned uncertain as she felt she owed Harper much more.
"I forgive you completely. Do you trust me?" Harper asked.
"With my life," Bailey responded.
"Let's hope it doesn't come to that. You trust me and I tell you all is forgiven and forgotten. Have you told anyone about us?" Harper asked.
"No until tonight, I wasn't sure there was an us," Bailey said.
"Do you want there to be?" Harper asked.
"More than ever, it's what I've been waiting for." Bailey replied.
"I do too. Until you can do these two things there won't be an us. Agree?" Harper insisted.
"What if I can't do them?" Bailey asked concerned.
"Then there won't be an us. These aren't negotiable. They are conditions I won't live without," Harper told Bailey.
"What are they?" Bailey hesitantly asked.
"First I want you to tell everyone you are gay and I'm your girlfriend. Not just some of them like here at school but everyone like use your facebook page or other social media," Harper explained. "When Rachel and I were together it was on my facebook about her and me not that anyone needed to be told because I had already told everyone in high school," Harper went on telling Bailey.
"What's the second thing?" Bailey asked.
"When you have told everyone, I will tell you. It will need to be face to face so it might have to wait until school is out," Harper told her.
"But that is a month and a half. I can't stand not to see you for a month and a half," Bailey bemoaned.
"Bailey, we will see each other between then. You don't think I am going to let you go after I have you back again do you? We just won't be an us. You will have your dorm room and I will have mine and if we can get together on the weekends, great. If not then whenever," Harper said.
"You're going to make this hard for me, aren't you?" Bailey asked.
"Neither item is very hard to do. They just take time. And besides we will see each other every weekend and most days too, so it isn't like we can't see each other in the meantime. My roommate wouldn't approve of you spending the night every night nor us making love while she is there and I'm sure yours wouldn't either. And don't even think either of them or us for that fact will move with a month and half left," Harper explained.
"Yeah, I guess you're right. It isn't too much to ask when we have waited this long. Does this mean you are my girlfriend and I'm yours?" Bailey said with anticipation.
Harper smiled and hugged Bailey. "Yes, you always were. You just didn't know it."
They hugged and kissed both fingering the other until they came almost at the same time before they cuddled up and fell asleep.
Over the next month and a half, things started out great between Harper and Bailey. Then they hit a snag. The conditions that Harper had given to Bailey, she hadn't done and it looked like a repeat of a year and a half ago when Bailey didn't live up to their agreement.
"I'm ready to go. Of everything that went on this year, you were always there for me and I am going to miss you over everything else," Harper told Annika.
"I'm going to miss you too more than you can imagine," Annika stated. "Call me when you get lonely."
"I wish you would take time off and come with me. The mountains will be great and my parents would be happy to have you. They have a third bedroom so no worries about this lesbian attacking you in bed at night," Harper added.
"I'm not worried. Maybe for one night I can be your lover. You never know I might enjoy it," Annika said with a smile.
The two hugged and Harper walked out the door leaving Annika behind. "See you in three months, " Annika said as she watched Harper go not showing Harper the tears she had in her eyes for Harper.
Annika prepared to go home for the summer. Her first year of college was over. She thought back over and her grades were excellent with all A's and one B. She had developed a great friendship with Julie and Sarah who had offered to share a three-bedroom apartment if Harper opted to room with Bailey. That was yet to be seen as when Harper left for the summer it was not looking good for Harper and Bailey to get back together.
She wasn't sure whether she should room with Harper either, because she came close several times to letting her secret be known and that would prove to be devastating. On the other hand she had developed a fondness for Harper. No she had to admit she was in love with her and she had to get home to clear her mind. She couldn't allow herself to fall in love with Harper. It was wrong in so many ways so she had to put it out of her mind and going home was the best way to solve that. She would be on the other side of the state a day's drive from Harper.
Bailey knocked on Harper and Annika's door the next day. She hoped she would find Harper there before Harper went home for the summer. Instead Annika was the one to answer the door.
"Hey Bailey. Harper's not here. She left yesterday to go home for the summer," Annika explained to Bailey.
"Darn, I was hoping to catch her before she left. I wanted to tell her something. Thanks anyway," Bailey said and turned to walk away.
"Oh Bailey, I know it's none of my business but Harper still loves you. She needed time to sort things out so she left as soon as her last exam was over. She didn't say where she was going but she did mention going to where it all began, where she found true love and where she hoped to find it again."
Bailey thought for a minute then her face lit up. She hugged Annika, thanking her for everything. "Harper was right you are the best roommate."
As Bailey walked off and out of earshot Annika stood in the doorway watching her go. She whispered to herself, "Treat her well. She needs someone to love her forever. She is my best friend and I love her dearly. I want her to find the happiness she deserves."
