Stealing Spree
chapter-577

A few minutes after Hayashi-sensei agreed to my suggestion, we returned to the Student Council.

Watanabe instantly excused herself upon seeing us while Shizu slumped down on her table.

There’s no more work for her to do at the moment and... it’s easy to guess the reason why she went straight to her desk. It’s because of what happened in the Principal’s Office.

Although I calmed her down, she’s still feeling ashamed of what she did.

The girl confidently brought me there thinking both Hayashi and I would instantly accept her suggestion. Unfortunately, the opposite happened.

As I stared at the girl who seemed vulnerable at the moment, my feet traversed the distance separating.

With Watanabe gone, I boldly picked up a chair and sat next to her, whispering comforting words to her ears while I stretched my arm across her shoulders. Perhaps slightly irked at what I was doing, Shizu eventually raised her head and glared at me.

She grabbed my collar at the back and straightened my body. Although I could resist it, I followed along with what she desired.

Shizu pinched my nose before standing up from her seat and settling on my lap, straddling me.

She then held onto my shoulders to fix her position. Once she found it comfortable, her arms slid from my shoulders to my back as she rested her head on my chest.

However, even with all of that, Shizu remained silent. Perhaps she didn’t know what to say or she’s afraid of saying anything else.

In this kind of position, time quickly passed until the bell indicating the end of the club hours and current school day.

“Observe me well... I’m still confident that you can do it. And learn well with Hayashi-sensei. She guided me on the duties of a Student Council President... I know there’s a possibility that you’ll also end up liking her but let me tell you in advance. She’s a married woman.”

Before standing up from my lap, Shizu reminded me. She even emphasized that last sentence.

A married woman, huh? She’s not wearing a ring though.

Wait... That’s not the issue here!

“I can’t deny that possibility. However, I can tell you honestly that my interest in her is only about her identity as the mysterious School Nurse. Now the mystery is solved. Apart from seeing her as another teacher I will learn from, there’s nothing else.”

“Do you remember? You’re also not as interested in me at first. What happened about that? Besides, being a married woman has a higher pull with that desire of yours, right?”

“Alright. I have no words. If it comes to that point, you know I will not hide it.” I raised my hand, defeated by the fact she laid out.

Whether that would happen or not, I had no idea. In any case, according to Hayashi-sensei, I could look for her once a week for a lesson. If I couldn’t find her in the Infirmary then she would be at the Principal’s Office, enjoying the view of the school.

Before I stepped out of the Student Council, I chased after Shizu and pulled her in a kiss where I aimed to erase her slight frustrations from earlier. And perhaps understanding my intention, the Shizu of last night returned with her aggressiveness.

Ten minutes after the bell rang, Shizu and I were back on the sofa, with my uniform pulled up. With Shizu on top of me, my body became the place she vented her slight frustrations on.

As I left the Student Council, I told Shizu that I would pick her up and send her to the bus station along with Nami, Hina and Saki.

Although she didn’t say anything, she nodded her head in agreement.

All those times, she’s going home alone as if she’s not part of their circle... I deemed it time for her to reconnect with them again.

Well, ‘them’ only pertains to the duo of Izumi and Arisa-senpai as well as Kikuchi.

She’s originally part of that circle but ever since entering high school and assuming the post of Student Council President, she seemed to be disconnected from them.

Perhaps if she returned and actively interacted with them again, it would slightly mend the cracks in it that were made by me...

Ugh. That sounds like I’m using her to keep their circle intact.

But considering Shizu, she still accepted it despite noticing my intention for suggesting that.

Moreover, she smiled beautifully upon hearing that I would walk her to the station. I guess that’s the most important for her.

My relationship with her was no doubt the same with the other girls already but she’s just too stubborn to admit that it is.

Just like the previous days, my feet first brought me to the nearest Literature Club to pick up Kana and Rae. However, when I reached the club, I received a surprise in the form of Chii, Aya and Satsuki.

“I told you, he would be dumbstruck.”

“Of course, he is, he’s an idiot after all.”

“Ruki... we...”

Chii was laughing. Satsuki, as always, showed a slight annoyance on her face. And lastly, Aya tried explaining the situation to me.

Rae and Kana were behind them, smilingly watching my reaction.

As for Ishida and Otsuka-senpai. They’re nowhere to be found anymore. Most likely, they went ahead even before the three arrived here.

Apparently, during their train ride last night, the five of them brought up the topic of how I began walking them to their stations one by one starting last week.

Although there were times when they would message me that they would go on ahead, they were made aware that I was tirelessly picking them up from their clubs.

Due to that, they agreed to gather in one place to save me some time and energy.

I see... The effect of letting them meet each other yesterday was already showing.

“See that? Look at him becoming speechless. The idiot is surely thinking that he doesn’t mind picking us up one by one.”

Noticing that it was taking too long for me to respond, Satsuki frustratingly said with her arms crossed and a frown on her face.

And she’s right about that... That’s what was in my mind upon hearing the reason why they’re gathered here.

I never learn, huh? As much as I worry about them, they’re the same towards me.

“Uh... You’re right, Satsuki. I guess I’m being insensitive again...” I admitted. “But you all know me...”

“We know. Of course. Who will know your character other than us? That’s why stop thinking and let’s go.” Kana stepped forward and brought out her mature side again.

The other four then stood up from their seats refusing to say anything further.

They didn’t want me to overthink things again. They’re aware that they all wanted some alone time with me. But considering there’s a lot of them and I couldn’t juggle myself every few minutes, they would most likely try to hold back on asking for my time.

Instead of that, they would wait for me to come to them and suggest it.

Uh... I ended up overthinking it again.

In any case, that’s how it always was anyway. Whenever there’s a chance, we’re grabbing it. That’s why Kana told me to stop thinking.

Apart from them trying to gather in one place to lessen the number of steps I had to take by picking them up one by one, it was still the same. We’ll be taking the chances wherever we can.

Just like this, along with the five women, we began making our way out of the school grounds. Sending them all to either the bus stop or the train station before returning to school to send another set of girls.

Will I get tired of this life? Well, probably not. I might become physically tired but compared to seeing them smile? That’s a small price to pay.
