Stealing Spree

The night quickly passed.

By the time Nao and I left the room, all sweaty from what we did, my parents had already left.

Mina incredulously looked at me as if some kind of pervert, who would go into the offensive as soon as I got the chance.

Well, that’s not wrong but considering what we did in her room, she couldn’t say anything or it would just thoroughly embarrass her.

Edel, on the other hand, boisterously clung to me again. It’s as if she’s been waiting for me to come out of the room ever since earlier. Even though I told her that I was sweaty, the silver koala ignored it as I eventually sat down on the sofa. With that, she took a seat on my lap and never let go.

Nao, who wasn’t that familiar with Edel yet, was wide-eyed while gaping at how daring the girl was.

Akane and Haruko just smiled at it. They’re already used to the clinginess that Edel was exhibiting towards me.

However, even I started thinking that it’s turning a bit excessive. Perhaps, if I ran into her at school, she might just jump at me even if we’re in a corridor filled with other students.

That event would indubitably turn into not just a full-blown rumor but a fact recorded by everyone who would see it.

Nonetheless, I didn’t have the heart to scold her. Not yet, at least.

Spending at least thirty minutes just cuddling my adorable silver koala, we then prepared to sleep.

Naturally, I took a bath with Akane first. This time, however, Nao joined us. The tub that’s already small for two became even tighter. In the end, I ended up in the middle of the two girls. To not make them uncomfortable, I got up and just sat at the side, watching the two.

Well, that didn’t last long because it quickly turned to the same pattern as any other day. Only, there’s another participant.

By the time we finished the bet, I brought the two in our room before excusing myself to visit Miwa-nee and the other three.

Miwa-nee followed me out of their room to not wake Minoru. Well, with her new stance of also competing for my attention, she had limited time to do so without being interrupted.

That’s why this night also became something else for us or rather, Miwa-nee would pout at me if I didn’t spoil her tonight. Moreover, the day of her return was looming above us. We’re going to make more memories together before that time comes. I really wish to come with her but like we talked about, Miwa-nee would be braving it by herself.

I could sigh all day to lament how useless I could be but to not worry her, I had to keep it all to myself. The best thing I could do for her was to accompany her like that and look brighter for our future rather than be depressed about it.

Miwa-nee was strong herself, after all.

Following the time with her, I checked on Akane and Nao first before going to my previous room where the three girls would be sleeping.

Akane and Nao were already asleep by then. After fixing the blanket over them and kissing their foreheads while saying goodnight, I went to my destination.

People would definitely think this was tiring but they didn’t know how satisfying it was to see your loved ones happy. They might be the reason I kept on moving yet they’re also the reason why I had the strength to go on.

My desire could be considered a disease but it’s also thanks to it that I met them. Maybe it could be the explanation why it was impossible to be cured. Who knows?

Once I entered my previous room, there’s a futon laid down next to my previous bed. However, no one was using it. The three girls were snuggled together at the bed with Haruko at the center. Apart from that, Edel was hugging my pillow with her face buried in it while Mina was curled up in my blanket with only her head peeking out.

They’re already snoozing so the only thing I did was to check on them one by one.

Mina was the most stressed among them due to what happened but at the moment, she had a peaceful expression. I caressed her untied luscious black hair and ran my fingers down to her forehead and cheek. She moved slightly as if tickled by it. That’s why I stopped and leaned down to kiss her exposed cheek as I whispered her good night.

Edel was whispering my name in her sleep. Although she’s not admitting it, Haruko and I concluded that I had already overtaken her when it comes to the most comfortable place Edel found herself in. And that’s properly displayed earlier. For her to want to be pampered by me even though Haruko was with us proved it.

Well, as long as it helped her fight against her fear, Haruko was more than happy to see it. She knew that even though their emotions for each other transformed into love, she wouldn’t be able to give them the best of her. And that’s because of me. In a way, it could be seen that Haruko was passing her lovers to me because she’s afraid that in time, her affection for them would diminish the more she spent time with me.

I took up that chance to get to know them one by one, starting with Himeko. And now, I truly ended up liking and loving the three. I could say that one of the reasons was my desire to help Haruko remain with them. However, it’s also undeniable that I ended up loving them just the same.

I stroked Edel’s unbelievably smooth silver hair and even though I hadn’t planned it, I somehow found myself climbing up, squeezing into the little space to hug the girl.

Perhaps she felt my fingers on her hair and the motion behind her, she mumbled quietly as she pulled her head out of my pillow to check who’s behind her. As soon as she found out that it’s me, Edel turned around, scooched closer and hugged me tightly.

At the same time as that, I noticed Haruko opening her eyes and with a wide grin, she silently mouthed, “You playboy,” before gesturing with her finger to push my head closer to her.

And I did. While Edel was rubbing her whole face on my cheeks and clung to my chest like the koala she was, Haruko and I shared a passionate kiss until she drifted back to sleep.

Following that, I just spent the next twenty minutes hugging Edel while occasionally answering her call for more intimacy.

By the time I left the room, Edel settled back on hugging my pillow while enjoying Haruko’s side.

When I laid down between Akane and Nao in our room, the two, despite not waking up at all, rolled towards my side.

And that’s how the night went…

It’s kind of a long night but it was filled with me looking over their sleeping faces, admiring their beauty all the while wishing to continue being with them…

When I opened my eyes in the morning, Haruko, Mina and Edel had joined us in our room.

No wonder, I woke up from the heat.
