Stealing Spree

“Senpai, you’re a little stiff, you know? I promised to not make you uncomfortable so… tell me if there’s something wrong.”

Since I said we’re going on a walk and I’m taking her for a tour, I didn’t just string her along with me to walk out of the Club Building without so much as doing anything else.

With my armband on, I paid a visit to some clubs that I remembered to be a little problematic – taken from what I saw from what Watanabe was working on earlier as well as, some of the papers Shizu had slogged off to finish for the past month.

Since it’s unofficial, I used pretty much the same tactic when I knocked on their clubroom door; announcing a Club Inspection. And of course, without any paper on hand, I only did a quick sweep of what was happening inside those clubs while having Nakanishi-senpai by my side.

Everything went well except, half of the time, their attention was actually on her. It accumulated and now rose to the surface in the form of a little frown on her face.

Hence, I took my time to stop in our steps to check on Nakanishi-senpai’s condition.

“… Don’t mind me. We both know that this is just my reflex from the other people’s gazes. And you know what? They’ve proven that… when it comes to you, no matter how shameless you become or how sticky your naughty eyes latch on me, I never felt uncomfortable.” Nakanishi-senpai forced a laugh at first, perhaps to tone down what she’s actually feeling. But by the end of it, her face eventually relaxed as she exhibited a natural smile – something that she unconsciously made.

“Senpai, you’re going to make me blush with your words.” I playfully replied, earning me an impish laughter from her.

Nakanishi-senpai then returned to my side and for the first time, hugged my arm of her own volition. “If that’s the case, I’m going to force that blush out of your smug face, shameless brat. Be prepared for it.”

That’s what she said, however, as soon as we resumed our steps and walked away from the populated area of the current floor, she continued in a gratified tone. “On another note, I don’t have any experience visiting other clubs walking along these corridors with someone else wherein I wasn’t being bugged down by questions or boys trying to flirt with me… Thank you, Onoda-kun.”

Hearing that obviously brought a smile to my face. Nonetheless, I couldn’t help but notice the hint of melancholy in it. Despite her earlier excitement, she still couldn’t help but feel a little lost at the moment.

That’s something I expected. I mean, no matter how much I try to assure her, I cannot control everything.

But hey, this is also why I got compelled to bring her out of that clubroom. To let her experience what it’s like to be free. ｎ𝚘𝚟ｌ.ｃｏ𝚖

“If it’s for my favorite senior, there’s no need for words of gratitude. I’m already being rewarded by you, after all.” I pointed at our connection. She was pressing herself on me that my arm was already squeezed in the middle of her valley. It’s warm and tender. I could also feel her heartbeat, which was a little irregular. At times it would race like a sprinter or slow down as though it’s about to stop. If I don’t know any better, I would probably worry about her health.

“This guy… Can’t you be serious for one moment?” Since my response came off as a little perverted, Nakanishi-senpai facepalmed. Nonetheless, she didn’t take a step back or end our connection. In a way, that showed that she has been fully accustomed to my remarks.

“I am serious. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing you enjoying this walk with me. Although you might see something unpleasant later or experience what you’ve been dreading, just know that… I won’t leave your side. I’ll protect you from anything.”

“Unpleasant? I don’t think I’ll find anything more unpleasant than your shamelessness, Onoda-kun. But I’ll take your word for it. You promised, after all.”

Well, what I meant by unpleasant was… my expectation over certain people.

And sure enough… one of those people didn’t fail to deliver.

Before Nakanishi-senpai and I could leave the Club Building, I spied Ogawa, with his arms crossed, leaning against the abandoned clubroom’s door.

As soon as he saw me coming down the stairs, the guy straightened his back and moved to block our way.

While he’s surprised to see Nakanishi-senpai hugging my arm, his fierce eyes focused solely on me as though the grudge that he was nursing was about to explode.

For sure, he’s been waiting for me to show up ever since I left their clubroom earlier. He’s here to question me about Kazuha-nee. Or what happened last night. He couldn’t get it out of his mind, for sure. And even without second guessing, Kazuha-nee definitely shut him out or didn’t tell him the truth about what happened.

But that’s to be expected. There’s no way Kazuha-nee could tell her little brother that she got pulled into our intimate moment, gave me a blowjob, allowed me to relieve her with my fingers, and in the end, subdue her with torrid kisses.

Sensing the tension in the air, Nakanishi-senpai couldn’t help but whisper to me as we slowed down on descending, “Is this what you mean by unpleasant, Onoda-kun? That boy. He looks like he’s already murdering you in his head.”

Well, I’d give it to her. She accurately guessed it, especially Ogawa’s vicious intent.

“If I say I stole everything from him which resulted in the guy holding a grudge against me, what would you think, senpai?”

“You’re asking me? Okay. You deserved some spanking, naughty boy.”

My lips couldn’t help but form a wry smile. For sure, she understood what I’m getting at but at the same time, she probably believed that I was exaggerating it.

Well, for sure, she’d be curious about it but I doubt she’d press me to explain everything to her. She’s unrelated to Ogawa’s beef against me, after all. But in case she asks me for it later, I’ll probably tell her the gist of why the guy hates me to the core.

“… Alright. I’ll let you spank me later but for now… I think I’ll have to ask senpai to go into that room first and wait for me to settle this. We’ll continue our tour after.” I pointed to the adjacent and connected clubroom. The one where Arisa and I hid before.

“I thought you were going to remain by my side?” Nakanishi-senpai playfully questioned me even though she was already loosening her hold on my arm.

“Well, if you’re fine hearing what we’re going to discuss then… stick with me.”

Without showing any regard to the guy in front of us, I matched the girl’s act by pulling her back.

Ogawa’s face crumpled even further upon seeing that. Nonetheless, he didn’t make a move yet. At least, this time, he knew he couldn’t afford to act rashly or he wouldn’t get anything from me.

In a way, while I can say that I managed to get a read on his character, this guy also, at the very least, understood a part of my character. So, he had no choice but to wait until Nakanishi-senpai separated from me.

“Uhh… I changed my mind. I’ll wait for you in that room.” Nakanishi-senpai eventually answered as she copied me by pointing at the same room. Then before she ran to it, she left a message in a whisper, “… You’re right. I find this unpleasant. Don’t make me wait for long, Onoda-kun.”

Yep. There’s no other way around it. While I have accounted for Ogawa’s train of thought, my invitation to Nakanishi-senpai was on impulse.

In any case, there’s no stepping back to it now…

I escorted the girl with my eyes until she disappeared into that room before continuing on my descent to stand before Ogawa.

“What are you waiting for? If you want to talk to me right in this spot, go ahead. Otherwise, go inside that clubroom. As you can see, I’m not as free as you think to be stalled by you.” Without any change in my expression, I indifferently nagged at him to get a move on.

Likewise, with his face as dark as his future, Ogawa clicked his tongue in annoyance. However, in the end, he could only chicken out and do what I told him to. After all, it would be worse for him if someone else heard what he was about to ask.
