Chapter Seventeen
Close and Intimate
Quinn fixated her eyes on the television screen as she tried her hardest to concentrate on the movie. They were watching their third horror movie in a row and all of the gore was starting to look the same. She couldn't get interested in the films, because she was distracted by her thoughts and feelings. And also, Caroline and Rachel's screams. Both women were terrified of horror movies.
She cast her hazel eyes toward Rebekah and watched as she scowled back at her. Quinn could not get what she said out of her mind. The words were replaying over and over in her head like a rerun of a show that she did not want to admit that she liked. Honestly, she liked what she had said and she wanted to believe that her words were true; she just did not wish to admit it.
It would be admitting that everything that she once believed to be true was a lie.
But, the words made sense. Why would God care so much about who she slept with? Why would he choose who she could fall in love with? Was she not supposed to love all people equally? Why should it matter to him if she fell in love with Rachel?
Logically, it shouldn't.
Quinn glanced down at Rachel who was sitting beside her on the couch with her hands covering her eyes. She was sitting extremely close to her. She could feel it every time that her body brushed up against hers; her scent was smothering her in a wonderful way. She loved it. All that she wanted to do was to reach out and wrap her up in a tight and safe embrace and protect her from the terrors of the film.
"You okay, Rach?" She asked.
Rachel peeked through her fingers up at her. Her brown eyes wide and full of fear as she nodded her head. "Yeah, I am fine." She insisted stubbornly.
Quinn laughed under her breath. Rachel could be so stubborn when she did not want to admit her weaknesses. "You are not fine. You're terrified."
A blush tainted her naturally tan cheeks and she smiled sheepishly, pulling her hands completely away from her eyes. "Of course I am, Quinn. If the amount of gore on The Lion King was enough to frighten me then certainly you understand why a movie like this might do the same. There is just so much gore and it is not like I have anyone to protect me like Caroline does." She nodded toward Rebekah and Caroline who were sitting on another couch in the room.
Quinn looked over at the other couch. Caroline was clinging onto Rebekah for dear life as she screamed and buried her head in her chest. She had always been the most scared when they watched horror films. She cast her hazel eyes back to Rachel, catching hers. "I can protect you if you'd like." The words came out more awkward than she had hoped.
Still, it did not faze Rachel. Her full-lipped smile spread from one ear to the other and she nodded her head adamantly. "I would love that, Quinn." Her smile fell and she screamed out, clinging onto Quinn and burying her head in her shoulder as someone was slaughtered on the screen.
Quinn tensed as she felt the contact. Just as she was starting to regret the offer her eyes landed on Rebekah who was smirking and raising a brow at her. Caroline was snuggled up against her body and she was holding onto her protectively, they both looked happy together. Then she looked toward the other side of the room and watched as Brooke squeaked out and held onto Haley before being teased by her and then kissing.
Her friends were all happy in their relationships. Her friends were all happy. And she was still worrying about being happy when she should be joining them.
'I am happy with Rachel… I like this… when she holds me I feel safe, my heart races, I feel loved and finally like I belong somewhere… why should God care if it makes me happy? Why would he want to take that away from me?'
Quinn hummed softly as she leant into the touch and actually took a moment to indulge in the contact. To enjoy the warmth as it engulfed her, to appreciate the way that her heated breath rushing against her neck caused her body to shake with need. Such a simple thing could make her body ache.
It was wonderful. She loved being close to Rachel.
"Thank you, Quinn." Rachel whispered hotly against her neck.
She shivered and blushed brightly before swallowing and looking down at the brunette. "You don't have to thank me. I wanted to hold you." A smile graced her pink lips as she traced her fingers delicately through dark strands.
Rachel smiled against her neck before daring a kiss against the sensitive skin. Her heart was pounding violently in her chest and she was terrified that she would be pushed away again, but she could tell something had changed. Quinn was not acting the same as usual, not as guarded. The cheerleader tangled her fingers in Rachel's hair as she felt those full perfect lips brush against her neck. It sent shocks through her body and made her stomach twist.
"I feel so safe in your arms." Rachel whispered out softly.
"I'm glad you feel safe with me." Quinn muttered out. She knew that the starlet had no reason to trust her and she did not fully comprehend how she could feel safe in her arms. She was just happy that she did.
'I need to apologize to her for everything that I have done… now just isn't the time for that…'
O
"Why don't we go down to the lake today?" Caroline suggested with a bright smile on her face. She was excited to go swimming in it. She hadn't visited in a long time and despite the chilly weather she planned to enjoy herself.
"It's freezing out today." Quinn pointed out apprehensively. She was not a fan of cold weather and she did not want to be outside in it, let alone swimming.
"Oh come on! When has a little cold weather ever killed anyone? It'll be fun! Besides you don't have to swim or anything, Quinn."
"I don't think so. I would rather stay here and sit in the hot tub like any sane individual would."
Rebekah walked past her, turning her head and staring into hazel eyes as she spoke spitefully. "And we all know how sane you are." Her lips twisted deviously as she looked back at Caroline and wrapped an arm around her waist. "I'm up for it."
Caroline squealed out excitedly as Rebekah agreed to her plan. 'One down, four more to go!'
"Me too!" Brooke announced with a dimpled grin. When Haley gave her a look that said that she was crazy her eyes widened and she laughed. "What? It sounds like fun!"
"It sounds freezing. I'm with Quinn on this one." That was something that she had never expected to say in her lifetime.
Brooke's bottom lip protruded in a pout.
"That's not gonna work Brooke." Haley insisted, nodding toward the hot tub. "Just look at that hot tub. It looks so nice and warm." Brooke's pout intensified, her hazel eyes filling with sadness and longing.
"I wanna go to the lake." She whined. In her mind she was already devising a plan for when they got to the lake.
Haley let out a sigh and laughed. "Fine, I don't know why you would choose to go to the lake in this weather, but I guess I'm going to the lake too." She smiled over at Caroline and Rebekah.
"So everyone is going now?" Quinn asked frustrated.
"I will stay here with you." Rachel offered.
A blush rose along Quinn's pale cheeks as she looked over at Rachel. She could not control her mind as she imagined what the other woman would look like in a bikini, with her entire stomach and long delicious legs exposed for her to see. Her heart started to race as she imagined touching her body, feeling it, tasting it. 'You need to get control over yourself Quinn Fabray…'
"If you do not mind of course." The petite diva added uncomfortably. She did not really know why Quinn was staring at her with such hungry eyes.
"I do not mind."
Caroline stared between the two of them, her lips parted and blue eyes wide. She wanted more than anything to convince them to go with. They were secluding themselves from the group and she did not like it at all, but she knew that there was more going on than met the eye. Quinn and Rachel were just now accepting their feelings for each other and she knew that the alone time would do them good.
Groaning out in frustration she agreed to the plan. "Alright, fine! Stay here and have fun alone I guess! Let's go you guys!" She started to walk away from the group, reaching out and grabbing onto Rebekah's hand and pulling her along beside her.
"Have fun you two." Brooke told Quinn and Rachel with a suggestive tone and a wink in their direction.
Both women blushed uncomfortably at the comment and nodded their heads.
O
Rachel was usually confident with her body. She did not allow her faults or the insults of others to convince her that she was not beautiful, because she knew that she was beautiful. She loved showing off her legs and accentuating her chest. But, this was different. Quinn Fabray was the one person that truly did intimidate her when it came to showing off her body. She had tormented her and made fun of her appearance on many occasions over the years and she did not feel beautiful around her.
She wanted to be confident, it was just difficult.
It would help if Quinn was not the most gorgeous human being on the face of the planet. She was perfect in every single way. Her soft blonde hair, her piercing hazel eyes, those pink lips, her pale skin, and her perfectly proportioned body. She was breathtaking, and Rachel was just Rachel. A little too skinny in all the wrong places, not much of a chest, short, and a disproportionate nose.
She allowed her large brown eyes to trace over her body and she sighed. She looked good. Her toned abdomen was showing, her chest filled her bikini top nicely, and her legs looked long and toned.
Yet, she was nervous.
Quinn Fabray had been waiting in the hot tub for nearly thirty minutes now while she stared at herself in the mirror uncomfortably. She just did not know if she could work up the courage to walk outside and join her.
"You look good, Rachel. You look better than good. She did not insult you because she is unattached to you; she insulted you because she is attracted to you." She reminded herself in order to boost her confidence. The pep talk worked. Lifting her chin up confidently and pushing her shoulders back, she walked out of the bedroom and headed outside. Cold air immediately assaulted her skin causing the hair to rise on her arms and her nipples to harden.
Rachel's eyes landed on the beautiful blonde who was resting back against the edge of the hot tub, her chest visible above the water. She bit down on her bottom lip as she looked over her exposed shoulders and chest.
'My god… she is perfect…' She could feel her body reacting as she stared.
Quinn's ears perked up as she heard something in the distance. She had been waiting for Rachel to join her for over half an hour. She had started to wonder if she was just not going to show up. 'Oh wow…' She was wrong. Rachel had decided to show up and she looked amazing.
Rachel was wearing a tiny pink bikini that just barely covered her chest and her womanhood. Hazel eyes ran over her long neck and exposed chest and she blushed as she witnessed the hardened nipples pressing against the fabric of her top, before allowing her eyes to move south over her toned abdomen and those long tempting legs. 'She is wow… I just… wow…' She felt a familiar ache between her thighs that she felt often when she was around her.
Quinn wanted her.
Rachel walked toward the hot tub, walking down the stairs into the heated water. She watched as Quinn's eyes ran over her legs and stomach before meeting her eyes. She blushed as she realized that they had darkened with desire from looking at her.
'I suppose that means she likes what she sees…'
"Sorry that I took so long, Quinn." She apologized.
"It's fine." Quinn said with a soft smile as she looked away shyly. A few minutes of awkward silence passed and then she spoke up again, "Thank you for staying back with me."
"It is no problem at all. I wanted to stay with you." Rachel smiled and leant back against the hot tub, propping her arms up against the edge of it and resting her head back. Accentuating her long neck and the naturally smooth tan skin of her chest. Quinn stared in awe and when she felt Rachel's leg bush against her own her eyes fluttered closed and she let out a soft moan. The way that her skin felt against her own made her body quake.
Rachel heard the moan and one of her eyes snapped open and landed on Quinn. The blonde was staring at her with desire filled eyes, practically undressing her with them. She sat up and smirked, both eyes open and staring deep into darkened hazel. Suddenly, she was feeling a lot more confident in herself.
Chewing on her bottom lip she leant in closer and stared into stunning eyes. "See something that you like?" She teased playfully.
Quinn's breath caught in her throat as she felt dark eyes wander over her body. She could tell that Rachel was as aroused as she was and it turned her on even more. Glancing down at her full lips, she leant forward a little so that they were even closer.
"Maybe…" Her voice was low and hesitant. She was not used to flirting back.
The starlet smirked and leant forward so that their lips were nearly touching. But, she stopped just before capturing Quinn's lips with her own and Quinn let out a whimper and pouted a little bit. 'My god… that is one of the most sensual things that I have ever witnessed… Quinn Fabray pouting for more. She wants me to kiss her. She actually wants me to kiss her.' This baffled her.
Rachel pulled back a little and knit her eyebrows together in worry. "I do not know if you are ready for this yet. Are you ready…? For everything with me?"
"I uh—I-" She did not know how to respond. Was she ready for everything with Rachel? A relationship with Rachel? "I don't know…" Rachel's eyes filled with sorrow and she quickly attempted to explain. "I mean I think so, I feel ready."
"But are you ready?"
"I don't know." She admitted. She was not going to lie.
Rachel sighed and pulled away from her. "Then we should wait until you are ready. As much as I want to kiss you right now, I do not wish to rush into it like we previously have."
"But, Rach…" Her voice was soft and sad.
"The last time that you kissed me things ended badly between the two of us. I just want to make sure that you are prepared to start a relationship with me this time, before we indulge in any physical activities."
Quinn smiled gently. She loved when Rachel rambled. It was an adorable quality that made her the woman that she loved. "Okay. I understand."
"So." She breathed out. "In that case, perhaps we should get dressed and take a walk instead, because if I continue to look at you in that bikini…" Her voice trailed off and she swallowed hard as she looked over Quinn's body. "All wet… and sexy, and absolutely tempting, then I fear that I will be incapable of resisting and I believe that we should refrain from doing anything of the sort before we talk about this."
"Alright…" She blushed and looked away at the compliments. Honestly she was just happy to know that Rachel was suffering with her temptation just as badly as she was. Quinn had never been tempted before, not by any guy that she had dated.
It was only Rachel. It was always Rachel.
O
Caroline waved her hands around upset. "I can't believe that we forget to bring our swimsuits. I was really looking forward to swimming." They could always walk back to the cabin, but considering how far away it was and how cold it was, she did not want to risk them not wanting to come back out.
A diabolical grin spread across Brooke's face, she had an idea. "I think I have a solution to our problem if everyone is up for it."
They all looked toward her, knowing that whatever plan that Brooke Davis had come up with was going to be inappropriate. Her plans always were.
"And what's that, Brooke?" Caroline asked with her hands on her hips.
Her smile widened and her voice cracked as she spoke excitedly. "Skinny dipping."
"No way!" Haley quickly declined the idea as she turned and started walking back toward the cabin. There was no way that she was going to be stripping down in front of people that she barely knew. It was hard enough for her to show her body to Brooke. In fact she still hadn't been completely naked in front of her.
"Haley!" Brooke whined, reaching out and grabbing onto her arm gently. She stared down into her eyes. "Please? It will be fun!"
"It sounds like torture."
She smirked and lifted a brow as her hazel eyes glimmered deviously. "Torture can be fun, if you're into that kinda thing." Haley did not respond to the comment. "Oh come on Hales, no one here is gonna judge you! It will be fun."
"Brooke…" She looked down shyly. "I don't think that I can do this."
"Well I certainly can do this." Rebekah stated nonchalantly smirking over at Caroline who looked upset. She was standing with her arms crossed over her chest and a frown on her lips.
"Of course you can." Caroline rolled her eyes.
She walked toward the other blonde and stared into her eyes. "Are you upset with me, love?"
"Yeah!" She threw her hands up in the air. "Just how many of my friends do you want to get naked in front of this weekend, exactly?"
Rebekah chuckled under her breath amusedly. Caroline was jealous that her friends were seeing her nude. It was absolutely endearing. She was being possessive over her. 'Acting like my girlfriend…' "Are you jealous?" She teased.
"Of course I am! I should be the only one seeing you naked and yet you just keep offering to get naked in front of everyone!"
"It is all in good fun." Rebekah said with a wide smile. "The only individual that I care to be naked in front of is you."
"I still don't like it." Caroline pouted and looked away upset. She hated feeling like everyone else would be checking out her girlfriend. 'My girlfriend… she's not my girlfriend…'
"You do not like the idea of swimming in the lake completely naked with me?" The British woman pursed her lips.
"Well yeah, that's kinda hot… Okay that is really hot, but not with Brooke and Haley watching us. That's just weird and I don't like that at all. Brooke and Haley will be—"
"—Preoccupied. As will we." Rebekah reached out and placed her hands on Caroline's hips, pulling her body closer to her own and leaning in capturing her lips in a kiss.
"Mmm…" Caroline moaned out against her lips before pulling back slightly and biting down on her bottom lip, staring into captivating blue eyes. She could not deny that logic. If Rebekah wanted to get naked with her how could she turn her down? "Mmkay, sure, why not? It'll be fun." She smiled.
"See, everyone is up for it." Brooke pointed out. "Come on Haley?"
Haley laughed and shook her head at her girlfriend. She was so persistent, but she loved that about Brooke. She constantly pushed her out of her comfort zone and made her try things that terrified her. Usually she loved them after she tried them though.
"Fine, I'll do it."
"Alright, it is settled then. Let's get to it." Rebekah smiled and pulled her shirt over her head leaving her wearing only her bra. Her abdomen and her chest exposed for everyone to see. Caroline quickly ran in front of her, so that her friends would not see her. She shot a glare at Rebekah who shrugged her shoulders, and then she started to take her own clothes off.
Haley blushed as she watched Brooke take off her shirt leaving her clad in her lacy bra. Her body reacted immediately to the sight and she turned around in order to take her clothes off. She wanted as much privacy as possible.
O
It had taken Haley awhile to get used to being naked, but she found that when she was in the water covered by the waves, she was not as self-conscious. She moved through the water toward her girlfriend and attempted to jump on her back and dunk her under the water. Brooke had dunked her first and she was trying to get her revenge. Brooke moved quickly out of the way of the tutor's attack and jumped on her back pushing her down.
Haley did not go under the water though. She held her ground laughing victoriously as Brooke tried to push her under again.
Suddenly realization hit her like a ton of bricks and her laughter caught in her throat. Brooke Davis, the sexiest girl that she had ever met, was currently clinging to her back and she was completely naked. 'Oh my god… I can feel her everything pressed against my back… her nipples are so hard and her—is she aroused? No… she's wet because of the water.' She could not convince herself because she knew that it was not true.
Haley's blush intensified when she felt heated breath rush against her ear.
"So, did you mean it when you said you wanted me?" Brooke whispered, moving her hips and rocking her heated center against her back. Haley moaned out loudly and her legs started to tremble beneath her. She knew that they would give out any minute.
"I'll take that as a yes." Brooke chuckled, running her tongue along her ear and nibbling on it. She traced her fingers along the top of Haley's breasts causing her to gasp and shake again.
"Brooke, we can't. Not here."
"And why not?" She wondered as her fingers teased Haley's hardened nipples causing her body to ache with need as she moaned out loudly and her legs nearly gave out. Brooke used this to her advantage and dunked her girlfriend who didn't even get a chance to scream. She jumped off of her back and watched Haley pop her head out of the water and wipe her hair away from her face.
Brooke threw up her hands victoriously, a dimpled grin on her face. "Hell yeah, I win!"
Haley glared at her and ran toward her jumping on her and dunking them both under the water. When they came back up for air they both stared into each other's eyes and started laughing. Brooke moved the wet hair away from Haley's eyes and continued laughing as she leant down and kissed her gently.
"See." Rebekah nodded toward Haley and Brooke who were caught up in their own games. "I told you that they would be preoccupied."
Caroline smiled and nodded her head as she bit down on her bottom lip and pulled Rebekah's body closer to her own, shuddering as it pressed flush against hers. She could feel her hardened nipples against her skin, and her flat stomach pressed against hers. "Yeah, I guess you were right."
"As usual." She pointed out with a smirk, earning a roll of the other woman's eyes. "And you too seem preoccupied as I suspected you would be."
"How can I not be preoccupied with you standing so close to me, so naked… Mmm…" She pulled back a little in order to look Rebekah's body over. Her eyes darkening with desire as they glanced back up into blue, and then glanced down at those full pouty lips. 'So kissable…' She smirked and leant forward capturing her lips in a heated kiss.
Caroline reluctantly pulled out of the kiss and began tracing heated kisses along the beautiful blonde's jawline toward her ear. "Wanna pick up where we left off?"
"Here?" She asked amusedly, definitely not against the idea.
"Why not?" Caroline asked pulling her body even tighter against her own and kissing down her neck. When she reached Rebekah's pulse point, she flicked her tongue over it and then bit down hard. She traced her fingers over the sides of the blonde Brit's body toward her ass. Once there she moved her fingers down over her ass and smirked against her neck as she squeezed it. Rebekah groaned out loudly in pleasure.
"I still haven't gotten the chance to please you yet and I really want to." Caroline breathed out. She stared down at the other woman's neck. She could still see the bruises where Niklaus had strangled her and it caused her to hesitate.
"Mmm… I want you to please me, Caroline. More than anything. But I am afraid to inform you that now is not the time."
She groaned out. "Why!?" Her fingers made their way further down over her ass and between her thighs. She traced her index finger along the entrance of Rebekah's soaked womanhood, she wanted to push her fingers inside of her and make her scream her name as she came.
Rebekah gasped out and moaned loudly, biting down on her shoulder and digging her nails into her back. She suddenly didn't care if Caroline's friends were approaching the two of them.
"You guys! Haley and I are freezing and we are ready to head back!"
Caroline let out a loud frustrated growl and pulled her hands away from Rebekah, throwing them up in the air. She was beyond sexually frustrated at this point. She had been interrupted by Quinn and now she was being interrupted by Brooke and Haley. She just wanted to pleasure her girlfriend, to be inside of her, to make her come and scream her name. 'She's not my girlfriend… she's just… Rebekah.'
"That is why." Rebekah stated sarcastically. She too was sexually frustrated. Honestly, if Brooke wouldn't have said anything she wouldn't have stopped Caroline. Her clit was throbbing and she was aching to be touched.
