Stealing Spree
chapter-1020

To date, this should be the first time that I hugged Ishida-senpai of my own volition. The previous times that happened were all initiated by her. For example, that time in her house. Although I led her on a bit, she moved closer to me without me pulling on her. And then there’s that time in the clubroom where she ran after me and did the same thing; slipping my arms from behind me.

Although on both occasions I responded in kind, the Ishida-senpai of today instantly became a mess trying to figure out what came into me.

She squirmed a bit and tried to get away at first. However, she refused to move and she leaned back toward me almost instantly.

In this position, I could feel her heartbeat thump rapidly along with her temperature rising to a few degrees. Little by little, she’s becoming more conscious of what’s happening between us.

Tightening my arms to pull her even closer, my lips damped lightly on her neck. I inhaled her refreshing scent and savored the softness and smoothness of her skin.

“Senpai,” I called out to her and Ishida-senpai visibly shuddered.

She’s very nervous now. If there’s a mirror in front of us, she’d probably be shocked at seeing herself being giddy and flustered enough for steam to be exhumed on top of her head.

My lips fleeted across her flawless neck before arriving at her ear. Clamping my lips on her earlobe, I began nibbling on it.

She was instantly tickled and tried to move her head away. However, my lips simply followed after her until she gave up on escaping.

Seconds passed and both of her ears were now red and glistened with traces of my saliva. Her breathing already turned rough and her knees already lost their strength.

The only reason she’s still standing up was that I never let go of her.

I probably did more than I should today but I couldn’t feel myself stopping at any moment. I found myself wanting to hear her voice and what was on her mind but until now, she’s just restraining herself from moaning.

Too bad, this room was empty. The walls and the floor were also dusty so I had to keep this up if I wanted to protect her from being dirtied.

Anyway, I continued with what I was doing… Using my lips to explore her neck and ears. I never went to her lips though. For sure, she wouldn’t be able to push me away if I did just that but a part of my mind was refusing to do so.

As for the reason? I don’t know. Maybe, I’m treating a kiss on the lips to be more important than what I did. And… I was probably hoping for her to ask for it.

In any case, this doesn’t feel like I’m courting her… It’s more like I skipped those few steps and quickly jumped onto physical intimacy.

Slowly, Ishida-senpai’s breathing returned to normal. Her chest heaved up and down before she once again gathered her footing.

“C-care to explain what you just did?” Eventually, she managed to utter those words in response. But with her stuttering, it’s easy to guess that she’s still out of sorts. Any kind of explanation would do but from the way she turned her head to take a glance at my face, she’s most likely hoping for me to give her a satisfactory answer. Something she wanted to hear the most.

I loosened one of my arms that was tightly wrapped around her to reach for her face. I caressed her cheek before sweeping away the part of her hair covering her eyes and tucking it behind her reddened ear.

Perhaps feeling ticklish with the touch of my hand, Ishida-senpai shuddered again. She bit her lips and glared at me. “Y-you’re just too… hateful.” She whispered under her breath. But given that she’s this close to me, I heard it clearly.

I smiled and let my arm return to its previous position before raising my head to level with hers.

And with our lips just a few centimeters away from each other, I responded to her earlier question, “Senpai, what kind of explanation do you need? You properly conveyed your resolve back then, it’s my turn to do so. I’ve been so busy these days that this got delayed a lot.” I paused for a moment before widening my eyes a bit, “Or have you changed your mind when I told you to think about it?”

There’s that possibility. However, with the way she acted around me these past few days as well as her reaction these past few minutes, I doubt she decided to take a step back and declare that she didn’t want me to pursue her anymore…

Who knows? I’m probably jumping the gun here and pushing her into the corner. In which case… I should tone this down.

With my mind reaching this point, I relaxed my arms and made it so she could get away had she wished to do so.

However, what I thought of didn’t happen. The following moments became Ishida-senpai’s turn.

Adding up what I just did to my question, the girl promptly reacted. From what I gathered, she looked like she was about to deny my assumption and ask me to hug her tighter. Yet, she couldn’t put the words to her voice. Instead, she let out a pained groan and knitted her eyebrows, appearing in a conflict with her mind.

Seconds later, Ishida-senpai turned around to face me properly. And without waiting for me to react, the girl pressed her face on my chest as her arms made their way to my back, embracing me tightly.

Her heartbeat raced once again and the warmth of her body perfectly conveyed her answer.

Yep. Instead of answering with words, this is what she came up with.

A smile naturally stretched on my lips as I dutifully caressed her head and stroked her long and silky black hair. “Senpai, I gave you a lot of warnings… Now that I showed you my answer, don’t expect me to put a stop… I’m going to make you fall in love with me. Enough for you to put words on your answer next time.”

“… Don’t be too smug about it. Just prove yourself first.”

“Naturally. And also, you don’t have to worry anymore, I’m going to succeed our club and turn it into how you wished. Before you graduate next year, you’ll find it more revitalized.”

“Ugh… I know you always talk big but aren’t you only bragging now? Show some results first.”

“Well, there’s no opportunity at the moment. But there’s an opportunity for something else…” As soon as I said this, I reached for her chin and lifted her head.

Perhaps also anticipating it, Ishida-senpai had a dreamy look as she intently watched my face draw closer to hers.

When there were only a few centimeters left, Ishida-senpai closed her eyes and parted her lips. Taking that as her giving permission, I pushed my head closer, pressing my lips on hers.

It was a swift kiss. Yet, as soon as our lips touched, Ishida-senpai shivered from well-hidden excitement before relaxing completely.

By the time our lips separated and Ishida-senpai opened her eyes once more, a beautiful smile landed on her lips as she touched it, trying to remember the sensation.

“Excuse me, senpai.”

Seeing that, I found myself even more tempted, while she was still relishing that swift kiss, I grabbed her hand and lifted it to the back of my head before initiating another kiss.

This time, it’s not just a swift kiss. The same as what I did to her neck and ears earlier, I nibbled on her lips, savoring the sweet taste of it.

Naturally, Ishida-senpai didn’t expect that. Her eyes widened slightly. However, it only took a few seconds for her to get into it, closing her eyes once more and responding to my movements. Before we knew it, the girl’s arms were now crossed behind me, her hand clutching a clump of my hair, preventing me from pulling away.

From a simple kiss, our tongues soon met each other. Being the one with more experience, Ishida-senpai could only wait for me to guide her.

There’s no need for more words to be exchanged… In a way, this was Ishida-senpai acknowledging my answer… And not knowing what to do next, the girl just went with the flow again. At this moment, however, my admirable senior was enjoying it as much as I did.

Minutes later, our lips separated, a string of saliva in between us. Watching her huff for breath, I caressed her cheeks and teasingly asked.

“Senpai, how is it for your first kiss?”

As soon as she heard that, her dreamy eyes regained their clarity, and putting me in her gaze again, she forced herself to frown and act as though she was unsatisfied, “I-it’s not great at all!”
