This is the third part of the Summer of My Discontent series. I recommend reading Part 1 and Part 2 before reading this. Part 1 is located in the Lesbian category. Part 2 is located in the Toys & Masturbation category. Enjoy!

God, I hate my life. I had fallen asleep by the time Darby knocked on my window. It scared the crap out of me. Why was she knocking on my window anyway? I mean, it was late, but not that late. And she knows we usually don't lock the front door until the last person goes to bed. I looked over at the closed door to my room and saw light coming in from the hallway. Someone was still awake.
"What are you doing?"
"I told you I would be back tonight." She was in a mood. I could tell instantly.
"Yeah, but I thought you would use the front door?"
"Then no one would think we have a secret."
"We want someone to think we have a secret?"
"Shut up and help me." Right. She threw one of her sexy legs through the window and then held her arms out at me to pull her up and in. She wasn't wearing her usual hoodie and leggings. What the hell was she wearing? A robe? She was wearing a backpack and a robe. She looked like a college student initiating into a cult. This kept getting weirder. Honestly though, I didn't care. I was glad to see her. My day seemed endless from the moment she left till now.
"What's in the backpack?"
"Not important. Here." She tossed me my phone. I wasn't sure I wanted to know the answer to my next question.
"Is it still on there?" She knew what I meant. The picture. She turned toward me. I got a good look at her. She looked beat. Her face was flushed. Her hair was matted down. It looked like she had come over here right after a serious workout.
"Yeah. It is still there. I'm not gonna tell you to stop looking at the picture of your girlfriend licking your sister's clit. But you know, you might want to start weaning yourself off of it. Believe me, I get it. But you might want to start."
"Why did you need it?"
"Clearly I needed to work some things out."
"Oh...how many times?"
"I didn't count."
"How many?"
"Five. Six if you count the first time here. I am sore and frazzled. None of them were as intense as this afternoon with you telling me the story. But I just couldn't stop all day. I basically haven't left my bedroom. I don't know what it is. But there is something about your sister's body that just..."
"I understand." I paused. Then I went for it. "Are you a lesbian?" She punched me. Not really too hard. In the arm. But she punched me.
"Don't be so...binary. I like guys. I like guys a lot. Sometimes I think about girls. When I do, it is almost always your sister. I have watched her walk by us on her way out of your house for years."
"You got me beat there. I never used to think about her. Until the other night. When she took off that dress and I saw everything, it was...something."
She looked sad for a moment. "I know," she said. "That was her plan."
"I'm pretty sure her plan was to take Rigby away from me. She has always loved taking my things. It was just a matter of time until she took something I really cared about."
Darb thought about what I said for a moment. "Look, I am sure you are right- and she always used to take your things. But I think Chelsea wants you. I think she has probably wanted you for the last year or so. I think she wants you so bad it is killing her. And I think she wanted to hurt you because she is angry and embarrassed about how much she thinks about you."
"For the past year or so? How the hell would you know that." Darby's eyes flashed with anger. She pushed me against my wall. She is stronger than she looks. She got right in my face.
"Because that is how long I have thought about you." I was at a loss. What? Darby made it clear she didn't want me years ago, and just today when we could have done anything together she doubled down on that.
"You...like me? But you are into my sister. That is pretty obvious."
"I want her, sure. More than I have ever wanted someone. But I don't like her. No offense, but she is awful. She is mean. Rude. Selfish. But the way she looks when she walks through the room. I think I might want her more because she never gives me the time of day. I have to get those tits in my mouth. I have to taste her. Seriously though, the thought of talking to her afterward is repulsive."
"If you feel this way, why didn't we do anything together today? It didn't seem like you wanted me."
"Well, not like this I don't. You are crushed about your girlfriend and obsessed with your sister. And I get that. I am too. So... forgive me if I don't want you in exactly the state you are in now." As usual, she made sense. I wouldn't want me like this either.
"Just- trust me, it was probably about a year ago when she started noticing you."
"I guess my life is really messed up." I said. She smiled. The anger was gone. She gave me a peck on the neck.
"I know. Now, we know what I spent my afternoon doing. What did you do since I left?"
"Not much. I had a long list of chores to do before Chelse's mom gets here Friday. I mowed the lawn, cleaned the pool. Crap like that. Oh, I did talk to Chelsea for the first time since...you know."
"Did you talk to her first, or did she talk to you?" Darby was getting intense.
"She talked to me."
"When?" I flopped onto my bed.
"When I was cleaning the pool. After I was out there a few minutes she came out and sat on one of the sun chairs."
"Does she do that a lot?"
"All the time. There was nothing unusual about that. Most days she lays out for a bit."
"What did she say?"
"She started with some general taunts. 'Haven't seen you in a few days? What closet have you been hiding in?' I just tried to ignore her. Then she asked about you. She asked where my little friend went this morning. That was a little unusual I guess. She doesn't usually ask me about my friends."
"I'm probably the reason for that. On my way out today, I kind of acted like we were up to something. When I left your room, I leaned against the outside of your door, like a little love-struck puppy. And then, I walked in a daze out the door. I didn't say anything to your family. I didn't even look at Chelsea. If anyone was paying attention, they definitely thought something was up." She kind of giggled. I think she was kind of enjoying this.
"What made you do all that?"
"I don't know. I was improvising. I guess I didn't want your sister to think you were hung up on what happened the other day."
"But I am."
