Hi Jean,
One thing I could come up with is to use IntervalQuery.

Specifically you could create an IntervalQuery with IntervalSource of:

Intervals.within(Intervals.term(word2), 3, Intervals.term(word1)))

to search for word2 that appears within 3 positions of word1

Hi Jean,

If you do not care about the order of the words, then use a phrase query
with a slop of 3.

Otherwise, you could use a span query to achieve that.
