Stealing Spree
chapter-1416-30041322

Soon after I concluded checking on everyone, even calling Miwa-nee who I found out to be really waiting to hear my voice and see me even through the screen, I joined the girls in the bathroom to wash up before retreating to our bedroom where we squeezed out what was left of me today…

Yeah. They really held onto their words from earlier. Even Ririka who already almost passed out earlier still joined the two as they teamed up on locking me down on the bed.

Two of them used their bodies to keep my back on the bed while the third one rode me. Or there's also the instance when it's Akane's turn that Ririka sat on my head, allowing me to eat her up while Yae rubbed herself on my arm.

But soon after I got all of them shivering from the pleasure, I took the lead, taking them on one by one, pressing them deeper into our bed.

By the time we finished, Ririka already fell asleep from exhaustion, only giving me one last kiss and a goodnight. As for Yae and Akane, they almost managed to outlast my stamina. Almost, because in the end, they also fell down on me, all of their energy spent while filled up completely.

Perhaps if the side effect of the tea was fast-acting, I would be able to last even until morning. But there's always a limit, right?

In any case, after catching my breath and putting blankets on the three girls, I pushed my exhausted body to get up and sat in front of our bedroom windows.

There, I waited for the clock to tick at midnight.

Naturally, I have a reason for that.

The same as that night when we surprised Miwa-nee for her birthday, I aimed to greet Hina who would be celebrating her birthday as soon as the date changed.

It's not possible to bring her home tonight and she didn't actually tell me about it. Not that she refused to tell me, we just didn't have the chance to talk about it.

Thankfully, Nami informed me about it earlier. And so, I decided to stay up for it.

She's among the girls who were dozing off earlier so I had no idea if she was still awake. That's why while waiting for the few minutes to pass, I wrote down my possibly the first ever birthday message for a girl I love.

I don't know what to write at first but upon remembering everything that happened between us, my fingers just continued to move, typing out an almost essay-long message, recounting our memories together as well as everything I'm hoping to accomplish with her in the future.

Maybe if someone read that, they would cringe a lot but I couldn't care less about it.

After saving it on a text document so I could copy and paste it later if the call failed to go through, I started counting down in my head while admiring looking at Hina's photo that I saved on my phone…

"Hmm. I really should take her out on a date after school and send her home. Her years of chasing after that guy she hoped to look in her direction is over. It's now on me to make her feel very special."

As I murmured along those lines, listing out every possible option, the time continued to pass.

Soon enough, midnight arrived and I quickly tapped the 'call' button.

A few rings later, the screen lit up as Hina's sleepy face occupied it. She's laying down sideways, holding her phone at an angle where it completely brightened up her face. She's not sleeping with lights off so it didn't matter.

Unlike her usual braided ponytail draped on her shoulder, her hair was probably neatly spread behind her. It's impossible to see in this angle.

In any case, despite looking like I had disturbed her sleep, her lips naturally stretched into a lovely smile as soon as she recognized the culprit behind the call.

"Hmm, Ruki? What's wrong? Oh. I'd like to say it's rare for you to call at this time but I think I already understood why…" In less than a few seconds, her confusion instantly cleared up. She then giggled sweetly, pushing a finger on her lips as her drowsiness gradually disappeared.

"You do? So much for a surprise, huh? Happy birthday, Hina."

"Hehe. I'm also hoping to hear from you. But I remembered. I never told you about this day."

"It's my bad for not asking you, I guess?"

"It's my bad too, idiot. I'm guessing either Nanami or Saki told you. I'll have to thank them tomorrow."

After saying that, Hina rolled over to the other side, perhaps to get a position where she's comfortable. But by doing so, I got a glimpse of what she's wearing. It's not the same pajama as before. It's now closer to a night gown which showed a lot of her skin. It's also made of silk which allowed it to stick close to her body. Due to that, I got treated by her sexiness even if it's just for a split second.

Not noticing that I somehow got lost into admiring her body, Hina continued.

"By the way, you really look like the character earlier. If not for deeply knowing the face behind that thin makeup, I'd be fooled to think that it's a different person. Can I see it in person next time?"

Ah. Right. That's what most of them said. It's like I became a different person despite wearing the same expression as that character. And due to that, none of them were against in posting in the social media account that Yae made for me.

Naturally, the girls who also didn't have any account there started registering just to follow or add me. Yae also gave me the account details so that I could manage it myself.

As for the handle that they picked… it started with Dark Prince – suggested by Elizabeth, of course – but it eventually got changed into a simple one. A single letter alias, 'R'.

Somehow, they all agreed to it, mentioning simple is always the best. Well, I'm fine whichever so… it became my internet persona. Not that I would be using that often. I'm already good with the messaging app that allowed me to connect with all of them, after all.

"Next time? I'll bring it tomorrow for you to see."

"Really? Then… go home with me too, Ruki? My parents already know about you. They heard from Kazuha-nee when she tried teasing me."

"Of all people to reveal it…" I shook my head, remembering the smug older sister of Ogawa and how she used me to torment her older brother. I guess I'll turn the tables on her next time I encounter her. Let's see how she will react. Too bad for Ogawa but her sister is asking for it.

"I know, right? I'm waiting for my chance to do it. Maybe surprise them one day by bringing you home. But now, they said they can't be convinced that I stopped chasing after Kazuo…" Hina rolled her eyes incredulously, something she rarely do. She looked fed up with it, huh? But I also couldn't blame her parents. The girl was too obvious with her infatuation with Ogawa before, after all. Even if she thought she's being secretive about it, there's no way they wouldn't notice after all these years. And now, they heard about the girl getting a boyfriend that's not Ogawa. No wonder they're not convinced.

Well, I better prepare on making them convinced. Hopefully, they wouldn't be as difficult as Elizabeth's father.

"Leave it to me. I'll convince them to even allow me in your room…"

"This guy… I'll convince them too. I want to show you something."

"Hmm? Sounds like I'm in for a surprise. But it feels wrong when you're the one celebrating her birthday."

"Shut it, idiot. I'm the type to be generous on my birthday… Besides, I'm always trying to scheme my way to be with you. I should act as a proper girlfriend for once."

"Okay, now that's you being too negative. You're already doing that a lot."

"It's not enough. So, wait for it." Hina pouted and pointed right at the camera as if she's trying to poke at my forehead. Following that, her sweet laughter rang out, blessing my ears.

Although I only planned for a greeting, our conversation continued until an hour later as we talked about a lot of things. Not just about our relationship but even the mundane topics that she seems to really enjoy talking about.

Naturally, I matched her with that, entertaining the birthday girl until we decided to call it a night a say goodnight to each other for the second time. Furthermore, with her request, I let the call remained connected throughout the night. She wanted to emulate the feeling of sleeping next to each other.

Obviously, she focused more on me than the girls that were lying on the same bed.

And with this, the extended Wednesday ended well into the first hour of Thursday. Right, I also sent my cringy birthday message to Hina which made the girl feel flattered and embarrassed at the same time. She loved it a lot that she even teasingly said that she was going to print and frame it. What a girl…
