Stealing Spree

Chapter 2038 Cuddle

?Faced with that question, it took Yue, the unit’s resident, a minute to answer.

Perhaps calculating the pros and cons of the decision, that minute was spent staring at me. She was reading the fluctuations on my face, figuring out what was in my head rather than asking me directly.

In the end, the decision she came up with was in favor of my frivolous cousin…

Or at the very least that’s how it is on the surface until she reveals what might transpire inside the room.

“Chisato-nee. If it’s only cuddling with Ruki then it’s fine. But you know we’re a couple, yeah?”

“Yes. I’m well aware. Will it be comfortable for you… for all of you?”

“Not really. What I’m concerned about is you. You might see something you’re not prepared to see.”

“Like what?”

“Like…”

Instead of verbalizing it, Yue lifted her hands, showing her some indecent gesture that anyone would understand… if they were not someone who still retained her purity like Chisato-nee-san.

“I’m sorry but what does that mean?” She innocently tilted her head.

Yue, Miho and Yua facepalmed at that causing the woman to be more puzzled.

Helplessly perplexed at how to properly explain it to Chisato-nee-san, Yue tugged at my sleeve.

Yeah. She’s passing the baton to me.

They’re usually bold when it comes to that topic but against someone like Chisato-nee-san, their skins aren’t as thick as mine yet.

I don’t know what’s in their head for telling her that it’s fine yet they’ve never even considered missing the chance of spending a night of passion with me tonight.

Refusing her request should be easy, no?

Or is this their way to give me the chance to catch up with Chisato-nee-san?

Ugh. Sometimes, it’s really hard to figure out their intention.

They would be jealous of another girl getting closer to me but then they would still allow the same girl to get closer to me.

“Ruki? What is it?” The woman tugged at my sleeve as well upon sensing that Yue wasn’t going to answer her question.

I turned to face her and looked straight at the pure brilliance of her eyes.

Damn it. I’ll just have to thicken my face more, right? She can be embarrassed and slap me as a result but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.

She shouldn’t be kept in the dark. The same as with Misaki, someone can trick her sooner or later if she continues like this.

Although I’m not sure yet if she can also be this vulnerable in front of other people, there’s no point in waiting if it’s something that can exploit her character.

I admit. I do care about her. As for whether it’s a close relative that has a significant impact during those few months we’re together or just her as a woman I’m close with, I still have no idea.

I guess I’ll figure that out in the future.

I took a deep breath before opening my mouth, ready to open her eyes to something she was probably not expecting to hear from me.

“It’s like this…”

Several minutes later. Inside Yue’s bedroom.

With my body still releasing a bit of steam after taking a short dip in the bath, I found myself stuck right after the door, staring at the two girls currently lying down on it.

There’s Yue who has already changed into her nightwear made from silk, perfectly hugging her slim body. She looked so enticing that if not for the presence of the other girl in the room, I would’ve already jumped into bed with her.

Alas, the second girl is none other than Chisato-nee-san. With only her head peeking out and staring at me from where she was lying down, the woman was currently curled up while wrapped in a blanket like a cocoon of a butterfly.

I don’t know if she also changed into something else but from the looks of it, she has yet to recover from what I told her earlier.

As for Akane, Miho, and Yua, after we finished up in the living room earlier, the three of them went to the unit next door. I was planning to sneak in later. Or during the morning…

Yue’s bed was only so big, it wouldn’t be able to accommodate all of us. Also, even without Chisato-nee-san, they’ve already decided to wait at the next unit for me rather than take this rare chance of sleeping on the same bed together from Yue.

Although it changed a bit because Chisato-nee-san didn’t back down despite everything she learned, Akane told me not to overthink it too much.

For them, they’ll have more chances to spend the night with me when we return to our city. But for Yue or Chisato-nee-

san, it’s still unclear when the next time will be.

Yeah. That should be the case, but I got a little stubborn, resulting in the three of them teaming up to shut me down.

Uh. Let’s just say I insisted that we sleep in the same bed together even if the bed would be too overcrowded. Or that we might not really get sufficient rest.

Yeah. That was my naive self who was refusing to adjust that it’s not always possible to equally spend my time with all of them.

Anyway, that’s that… I could say I learned my lesson but I knew myself enough that I would probably act the same way in the future instances. So, I did my best to shelve the thought in the corner of my mind while I was relaxing in the bath.

Now… I have something else to face tonight…

Yue winked at me. Most likely, this current sight in front of me was a result of their talk or whatever she prepared while I was in the bath.

Shaking my head inwardly, I asked as I closed the door behind me and continued to the bed.

“Are you cold, Chisato-nee-san?”

Yue happily received me, dragging me down to take the place between them.

While my girl daringly snuggled on my left, the cocoon on my right squirmed a bit before answering, “... No. It’s not cold.”

Slowly, she also started moving closer to my side until her head comfortably settled on my arm.

“Chisato-nee. Didn’t you say you won’t be embarrassed in front of Ruki? Don’t tell me you’re getting cold feet now.” Yue mischievously said.

From the looks of it, Yue got her to wear something else.

I don’t know if it’s something she brought herself – since she planned to crash the night before coming here – or Yue lent her something.

It can’t be that she’s also wearing seductive nightwear, right?

Coupled with what she learned earlier, it’s understandable why she’s acting like this now.

Or so I thought. Her next words were surprising, to say the least.

“It’s not that! I just thought… What if Ruki gets charmed by me? It won’t be good for you.”

So, she’s not just pure. She’s also quite daringly confident.

“Pfft. You’re worried about that. It doesn’t matter, Chisato-

nee. Even if he gets charmed by you, this guy’s love for me won’t change. Don’t you want to cuddle with him–”

“Alright, enough. Don’t feed her with ideas.”

Before Yue could continue, I flicked her forehead and tightened my embrace around her body. Then, I turned to my frivolous cousin who was still squirming underneath that blanket.

“Chisato-nee-san, it’s fine. You can keep the blanket. I’ll still cuddle with you like I promised.”

“Uh… Ruki, why does it feel like you’re more mature than me? I’m the older sister here!”

“Because I am, at least in this situation.”

The woman unhappily frowned but only for a moment. She hardened her expression and gradually pushed forward. Before long, Chisato-nee-san’s arm stretched out of the blanket, reaching for my head.

Before I knew it, she slightly moved upwards before pulling my head down.

My vision immediately went dark as I felt the blanket drape on my head before my face became buried into something warm, soft, and fragrant…

Mhm… She’s really bold, isn’t she? Instead of copying Yue, she cuddled me instead of being cuddled by me…
