Stealing Spree-Novel

By the twe reappeared from behind that tree, we found An-rin standing next to Kushii facing our direction. The former had her eyes narrowed while the latter couldn’t look straight at me. But instead of her awkwardness earlier, it’s more about being apologetic for not being able to send An-rin away.

I searched the vicinity and found no Hino, Ogawa, or Fukuda around.

Did they return to the professor or did they go and finish the task by themselves?

Well, there’s no way to answer that myself.

At my side, Hana and Chii tried to compose themselves by straightening their backs and raising their chin. However, with their legs being wobbly while walking alongside me, that alone was enough indication that they were still a little out of it. Furthermore, they’re still donning their lovely and satisfied grins with flushed cheeks.

I did let us rest for a while there, but it’s surely insufficient to fully bring them back to normal like nothing happened.

As for me, my ears were probably still red but my face was probably glistening after wiping the traces of their love juices that sprinkled on me.

Of course, that’s not enough to say nothing happened. So instead of alluding to it, I just decided to be as shameless to it as possible as we neared the two gyarus.

“Don’t look atlike that, Kushii, An-rin… I’ll be embarrassed.”

While scratching my cheek, I awkwardly smiled at the two.

They rolled their eyes incredulously, not believing one word coming out of my mouth. Then, they took a glance at the two girls at my side.

“That’s thick coming from you, Onoda-shi. Like, we could totally hear them clearly from here.”

“Hmm? What are you talking about?”

I tilted my head and pretended to be oblivious to her meaning.

Well, if it’s as she said then it’s probably when they couldn’t hold it back anymore. Hana and Chii ended up askingto slow down at that point by tugging at my heart. But instead of granting their request, I intensified my movements, which made their moans uncontrollable.

An-rin’s face twitched at my thick face. She probably wanted to argue more but understanding that I would continue playing dumb, she couldn’t bring herself to do it anymore. On her side, Kushii was shaking her head. She had nothing to say but if I have to guess, she’s just holding back airing out what’s in her mind.

I couldn’t just press her on it, right? And thinking about our current situation, it’s better this way.

“Ah. Enough about us, An-rin. Have you found the professor?”

“Um, excuse me? Are you for real, Onoda-shi? Like, seriously, you’re just going to brush it off like nothing happened? Ugh…” Putting a hand on her forehead, An-rin stared atin exasperation. Nevertheless, she could only keep that up for a few seconds. She knew that it was pointless to presson it as well, after all.

What? Should we report to her about what we did? Give her a second-by-second account of what happened? Even if she’s as shameless as me, she’d definitely be uncomfortable with it.

But then again, she probably just wanted to take a stand for Kushii who got left behind here.

Chii, who eventually recovered, ran up to her and rubbed her cheeks with her gyaru friend to appease her fleeting anger. Before long, An-rin’s face softened up as she berated her friend.

“Girl. I would’ve never guessed that you could be as wild as this when you’re in love. I get it. Onoda-shi’s charm is like, next level, am I right?”

“Y-yeah. Sorry if we left behind Kushii. But you know how it can be uncomfortable for her.”

“But you didn’t think about that yesterday.”

An-rin sneered at Chii, causing the girl to be tongue-tied. She couldn’t deny it, after all. It was Chii who stopped Kushii from leaving the tent.

In a way, apologizing this twas pretty much hypocritical of her since she’s already dragged Kushii to be involved with me.

With a guilty and awkward expression, Chii hugged An-rin. Although that’s Chii’s way of admitting to her fault, An-rin’s face immediately softened up.

She pinched Chii’s cheeks before sighing before turning her gaze back to me.

Looking at her eyes, I could see right through what she was thinking.

It’s about tI step up, right?

“Alright. You can scoldtoo, An-rin. I’m the one who should apologize here, after all.”

“Forget it. Like, I’m totally not ignorant, Onoda-shi. It’s useless to tell you things when you’re running on your own rules. You better wise up and take good care of my friends, hear me?”

I thought she was going to go off on me… But this… I don’t know anymore. It’s really hard to figure out a girl’s mind, isn’t it?

“Friends?”

“Hey, An-rin!”

“Hmm? Why? We all know Onoda-shi is the kind of guy who’s out of the norm. Probs everyone close to him has the srelationship as our Chii.”

Despite Kushii’s protest, An-rin nonchalantly gave her evaluation before sneering at me. No matter how I look at it, she’s now at the point of being convinced that there’s more to my relationship with the girls around me.

In any case, it’s also about tfor them to figure that out, right? The snack bar declaration was just to send them off the rails. Ever since that time, my girls and I started becoming more and more high-key. Hana and Nami even kissedright in the middle of our class.

That’s why it’s not that surprising that An-rin could reach this conclusion. However… why is she pushing Kushii as well?

Look at the poor gyaru. She’s now like a bird whose feathers were flocked. While she still looked the same, her behavior becmore docile compared to before. She couldn’t even afford to be playful anymore.

Is getting interested in someone can make you change that much? No, right?

If I’m not wrong, this was temporary as the memory of confessing toand seeingin that state was muddling her head. Once she got that out of her system, Kushii would return to normal. Or that’s what I’m hoping to happen. We’ll see when we return to school.

After another back and forth with An-rin, we soon reached a stalemate and we finally got filled in about the progress of our activity.

As I previously guessed, the three went back to the professor. Or rather, An-rin sent them back there, saying she was going to wait for us in order to bring us there.

I asked for a few minutes more to let Hana and Chii recover first. That An-rin’s eyes roll again but what else could she say?

While waiting, I approached Kushii and thanked her for her help. Since I heard her attempt to misdirect them, it’s only natural to be grateful.

But then, finding out that I also heard her made the girl flustered. She tried running back to An-rin’s side but because of her hasty movements, she almost tripped.

The result? I managed to catch her. But like the previous instances, that ended up making her more flustered that An-rin calledout again for teasing her friend.

… Yep. Looks like I should just let Kushii return to her normal self before approaching her again. It’d be bad for her heart, no? And this is even when she said she’s not hoping for anything else.

“Onoda-shi. You’re the man here… Take the lead.”

A while later, with Chii and Hana already feeling refreshed, we soon crossed the stream to rejoin the others to finally finish our first task.
