Stealing Spree
chapter-2256

A few minutes later, Rumi fell asleep on top of me. She wasn't that exhausted but the comfort I brought to her was like a tranquilizing pill, making her eyelids grow heavy and eventually close. Her breaths were slow and steady, her warm body pressed against mine.

I caressed her head and back, making sure that she was comfortable, feeling the warmth of her body slowly seep into mine. Her soft snores were a gentle hum that soothed my racing heart.

Mhm. I wanted to take care of her more. See her smile and... be there with her in the future. Just like with all of my girls. Before long, I also closed my eyes to take a rest.

When we both woke up at an indeterminable time, we noticed it wasn't even midnight yet. We only ended up napping for a short while. The room was still dimly lit by the moonlight, the silence was occasionally broken by our soft breathing.

Rumi looked up at me and with a pleasant smile, she said, "Ruki, I'm hungry."

Her voice was still a bit breathless, but it was clear she was feeling better. She looked absolutely adorable laying on top of me like that.

"Alright, let's take a break then. Shall I carry you downstairs?" I whispered to Rumi, smiling at her adorable expression. She nodded sleepily, her arms loosening around my neck. I carefully lifted her off me, feeling the lingering warmth and stickiness between her thighs.

"Ah. Right. We should also get you cleaned up, let's take a shower first and fill the tub for later." I suggested with a smile, standing up and bringing Rumi along with me. She eagerly nodded and blushed at the mention of the mess we'd made.

Her bedsheet even had traces of what we did. It hadn't dried yet. There wasn't that much blood but it was there nonetheless.

Upon reaching her bathroom which was also bigger than ours at home, I looked at Rumi to point me to where the towels and other necessities were. She nodded towards a closet, and I opened it to find a neatly organized array of towels and washcloths. Once we got what we needed we stepped into the shower room, and let the warm water gradually fill up the tub before we both stepped under the showerhead.

Rumi and I stood in front of each other, our faces still mirroring our feelings for each other. As I turned the knob for the shower, the warm water drizzled down as she leaned into me. Rumi's naked body fitted perfectly against mine as if it was made to. I wrapped my arms around her, holding her tightly as we both let out a sigh of contentment.

Like I suggested, what we did first was to wash away the traces of sweat and clean us up down there. I gently washed her body with the soft washcloth, making sure to be as gentle as I could, especially on her intimate parts. She winced slightly as the warm water and the cloth hit the spots that were sensitive from earlier -- especially her sacred place. But Rumi bit her lip and didn't stop me. She simply watched me with a mix of fascination and adoration as I took care of her.

Like me, she's savoring this night where she has me all to herself.

"I heard from Kana... You two also took a bath after." Rumi's cheeks flushed an even deeper shade of red as she recalled her best friend's words.

Was that a conversation they normally bring up? But well, knowing the two of them, it wasn't that far-fetched.

"Yes, we did. But that's normal, isn't it? I can't let any of you get so sticky throughout the night. Besides... Taking care of you after it is my duty." I replied with a chuckle as I continued to clean her up. Once I was done, I stood up again and we enjoyed the warmth of the shower together.

We didn't need to stay for too long. Five minutes later, we picked up the bath towels and left the shower, drying ourselves and wrapping us both with the warm fabric.

Rumi looked up to me with an adorable shyness as if all these new experiences had turned her to be like Kana who meekly followed my every move.

Then, I picked her up again bridal style as we made our way to her kitchen to get her something to eat, the warm water from the shower mixing with the cool air of the room.

"Alright. What does my Rumi want?" I said as I put her down on one of the chairs near the countertop, telling her not to move and leave everything to me.

"Anything you make will be good," Rumi answered with a sweet smile, her eyes shining with anticipation. But honestly, her eyes were actually glued on my body as if she couldn't get enough of it.

I could feel her eyes on my back as she watched me rummage through her fridge, pulling out a couple of items to make a quick snack. It was a simple affair of bread, cheese, and cold cuts, but I knew it would be enough to satisfy her hunger. I also brought a few leaves of that miraculous tea and brewed it for both of us to share.

"Oh. Is that...?" Rumi's voice trailed off as she looked at the tea leaves.

"Yeah, it's that tea. You said you also wanted to try it, no? Its taste and... its effect tomorrow." I said with an impish smile, implying the side-effect that I'd experience tomorrow after a good night's rest thanks to it.

"... Pervert Ruki." Rumi giggled, her cheeks flushing a shade darker than before as she took the teacup I offered her. She took a sip and let out an 'mm' of satisfaction, the warmth of the drink seeming to spread through her body.

As I finished our snack, we sat together in her kitchen, eating peacefully and sipping our tea. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable as if we were a long-time couple enjoying a quiet night in.

We talked about a lot of things and Rumi also told me more about her father. Her father was so adventurous he now spent more time outside the country. The last time she met him was last month. Rumi also mentioned how she missed her siblings who were living with her mother.

It's not like they lost communication, they simply left to live outside the city.

Truthfully, Rumi was also asked by her mother to come live with them but because she didn't want to abandon this house. The house that was once filled with their memories as a family,

she decided to stay.

"But don't look that gloomy, Ruki. My mom understood me. I always visit them on special occasions. My brother and sister also call me at least once a week. It was every day back then,

but they're now grown up.

Hearing this story from her felt like she was once again letting me into her world. Our relationship had already progressed to this point where she was comfortable sharing all these with me.

"But what about your dad? His work, I mean." I couldn't help but ask. He's the source of that miraculous tea, after all. Even though he got it in one of the countries he visited, I couldn't help but get curious about his actual job that needed him to travel around the world.

Rumi giggled a bit, taking a sip of her tea before responding, "Dad's a treasure hunter, of sorts. He finds rare and unique items and sells them to collectors. Sometimes he brings me back little trinkets from his travels."

Did I hear that right? Treasure hunter? In this day and age?

"T-that's amazing." I couldn't help but exclaim breathlessly as I sat beside her. "A treasure hunter? That's like... something out of a movie or a novel."

Rumi giggled at my reaction, "Yeah, I'm kidding. You fell for it, didn't you? But he did have an interest in it, that's why he could get those tea leaves. He's actually a businessman, but he does go on adventures for his work."

She took another sip of her tea as her eyes showed her delight at successfully pulling my leg. Her laughter was like music to my ears, filling the quiet kitchen with a warmth that was more -comforting than the tea we were sipping.

I scratched my cheek and awkwardly smiled, "You got me there. I should've known better. Shall we also do some treasure hunting of our own?"

Her eyes sparkled at the suggestion and she nodded eagerly. We finished our tea and snack, our conversation flowing naturally as we moved into the living room. The night was still young and there was so much more of her to uncover, so much more of us to explore.
