Stealing Spree

Chapter 1816 Inside the Room

“Numbskull, hug me. The smell of this room is… unpleasant.”

That was Shizu’s first impression after entering the room we picked downstairs. She even covered her nose and clung to my back to bury her face there to sniff my scent.

Well, that’s a natural reaction, I guess? Although not all the girls I brought in a hotel exhibit the same reaction, it’s not unusual.

This kind of place was routinely cleaned every time it would be used by a couple. Unlike hotels where guests mostly stayed for a whole night or day for sleeping or working purposes. Rooms in love hotels are often used only for three hours or even shorter than that. And of course, we all know what they’re supposed to be doing in this place. During that time, a strong smell of sex would permeate that even the scented shampoo or soap fragrances that would come from the bathroom fail to expel. Hence, the rooms would often be filled with the smell of cleaning detergent or air freshener after every usage.

In this case, I could smell the strong lime-scented air freshener.

It’s probably too much for Shizu.

Thinking about it, the Student Council Room always has a cool flowery, and sometimes sweet smell akin to that of fruits and that’s the same for her perfume that she sometimes wears whenever she feels sticky from sweat.

Looks like I found another new side of her. However, I also sometimes smell strongly – not a bad odor, of course. Some of my girls have that strong fragrance as a preference, after all. This was the first time that Shizu seemed oddly affected by the strong citrusy scent.

I inhaled to properly judge the air in the room and it’s still the same as my initial observation. Behind me, the girl’s nose was already buried on my back.

I did want to see her expression but for her comfort, I should deal with this first.

“Let me check. There should be an air freshener somewhere in this room. Hopefully, it’s a different scent.” I said while slowly moving us from the door to a small cabinet next to some kind of vending machine that sold condoms and other products related to it.

Shizu only moved her head in agreement. She kept her hold on me as if she didn’t want to part from my smell. Even if I’m wearing the new clothes we bought earlier, it looks like my smell has already blended into it.

I could already imagine her nose turning red. That would be a rare sight.

Ignoring the vending machine, I crouched down and opened the cabinet. Luckily enough, I found an apple-scented one.

How did I know that there’s supposed to be one here? Let’s just say it’s experience… And establishments like this also keenly take their customers’ complaints seriously. That’s how they stay afloat.

When I started spraying the air freshener, Shizu’s ears perked up. She raised her head and upon seeing the can in my hand, she slowly moved to my front.

With our positions changed, the girl had me hug her before grabbing the can from my hand. While looking like she was about to exorcise the strong unpleasant smell, the girl started spraying all over the room. She didn’t even miss a corner. She’s thorough on the job of eliminating that lime smell.

Once she’s done, Shizu returned to me, dropped the can and pointed at the air conditioner that was currently at its ‘room temperature’ setting.

She couldn’t reach it and there’s no remote to configure it so she’s turning to me for help.

I checked which setting she wanted before reaching for the buttons and configured it to her preference.

She had it tuned up, allowing the air freshener she just sprayed to even reach the ceiling and occupy the whole room.

“Un. Now that’s better.” A minute of waiting later, she inhaled and the unpleasant expression on her face disappeared. With a touch of a nervous and shameful laughter, Shizu slipped back into my embrace as she continuously chanted, ‘Forget about how I acted, numbskull.’

This girl is seriously adorable. Who wouldn’t fall in love with her?

I patted her head before I playfully whispered, “I can imagine you doing the same in our house in the future. You and Akane will get along with that.”

“R-really? I can’t handle the smell of lime but oranges and lemon are fine. Maybe if the lime smell came from you, I could tolerate but other than that… never. Did I kill the mood?”

I see. That’s how it is. Her bane is lime, huh? And as expected, she’s making an exception if it’s me. This girl… but could she really tolerate it? I better not test it. I’d rather see her comfortable than force herself to act like one.

“Not really. I’m just amused to learn this new side of you. Besides, we can pick the mood back easily. Do you remember where we are?”

I closed my mouth and let the silence engulf the room. And sure enough, we both soon picked up the noises coming from the adjacent rooms.

On the left are the creaking of the springy bed and the soft, unhurried moans of the couple. On the left, it’s a little more violent as though someone was hammering a nail to the wall.

Almost instantly, Shizu’s face turned crimson. Although we already had enough experience to know what’s what and she even sat next us when Arisa and I did it inside the bus, hearing other couples go at it was definitely not yet recorded in her books.

She’s still pure that way.

Now, I have corrupted her again.

“Numbskull, if you tease me about this, I’ll be really mad at you.” 𝑖𝘦.𝒸𝘰𝘮

“I won’t. Not when you’re acting this defensive and adorable.”

Seeing my mischievous smile continuing to decorate my face, Shizu rolled her eyes, thinking that I’m already making fun of her.

I’m just telling the truth though. And I can’t help it. I wanted to immortalize her current expression in my memory.

Who would’ve thought that she also has this side, right? And to find that out in a love hotel… It’s terrific.

“Ugh. Forget those noises. Tell me one thing I don’t know about you yet. Just to be fair.”

Going back to the lime issue, Shizu grabbed me by the collar and narrowed her eyes into a glare. It looks like she wouldn’t be satisfied even if I said I’m not making fun of her.

“Alright. Since it’s our special night, let’s make it more special through this…”

As I trailed my voice there, I slowly bent my knees just enough for my arms to perfectly wrap around her waist. I didn’t reserve any tact and properly felt her figure within my palm. Then with my hands sliding down to clasp her springy and squishy backside, I lifted her foot from the floor.

I had no idea if it was her reflex or not but Shizu’s legs naturally crossed behind me without urging her to do so. Her arms even circled to the back of my hand, anchoring herself properly on me.

There wasn’t even a change in her expression. Her eyes fixated on me as she waited for what I was going to reveal to her.

“One thing you don’t know about me yet is…” I smirked and started moving my feet. Not towards the bed but the nearby wall.

As soon as I got her back pressed against it, I pushed in to catch her lips.

Shizu evaded that and stuck her tongue out.

I tried for a second time and she answered with a headbutt – she’s the one who got hurt from it though.

But I get it, she wanted me to reveal it to her first before she accepted my attempts.

Nevertheless, upon seeing her frown from the pain like that frown, I stopped going after her lips and went to kiss her forehead instead.

“That’s what a stubborn girl will get. Alright, I won’t keep you in suspense anymore.”

Though I said that, I still closed my mouth and simply stared at her.

Five seconds later, Shizu reached her limit. Moving her hands from my shoulder to squeeze my cheeks, she turned me into a duck face with my lips pouted and pressed together. Then, while looking pleased at the sight, the girl returned a smirk.

“Numbskull, you’re having a lot of fun teasing me.” .

“Am I?” I acted oblivious and tried to push my head again and this time, my hands clasping her bouncy softness tightened.

With her bright yellow eyes narrowing to a slit, Shizu bit my lips. She was gentle at first but little by little, as if hungry for my response, her movements became hurried.

She started biting harder before sucking it with her tongue, tasting every part of my lips. Then as if delivering me her built-up annoyance for keeping her in suspense, she caught my tongue and circled hers around it.

Given that she never released my cheeks from her tight squeeze, I could only answer her by staying still. A few seconds later, using the wall as her support, she lifted herself further and released my face to tighten her arm’s embrace.

With this freedom, I started answering her movements, deepening that kiss and also pressing myself further. With the mood gradually building up, I dropped the suspense and delivered what she was waiting for, “This is a secret but… I hate carrots. Or rather I can only eat it when it is chopped to bits.”

Shizu’s eyes widened upon hearing that and then, pausing on our intimate exchange, a hearty laughter escaped her mouth, “Carrots… I see. My numbskull is a picky eater.”
