Stealing Spree

Ten minutes later, they returned looking suspiciously innocent. Eimi was carrying a small handheld basket filled with assorted supplies for whatever chocolate they were going to make, while Ria carried a single bar of dark chocolate, as if it were the only thing they’d grabbed.

Both of them wore identical smug little smiles that screamed they were up to something.

“Miss us?” Eimi asked as she dumped the basket into her cart.

“Terribly,” I answered with a deadpan expression, raising an eyebrow at the obvious cover-up. “That’s all you got? One chocolate bar? I’m wounded. I thought you were plotting my demise with sugar.”

Ria tilted her head, blinking up at me with her wide, deceptively innocent eyes before cutely sticking out her tongue. “Who said this is for you, Dumb-senpai? Maybe I just wanted chocolate.”

Eimi chuckled. “Yeah, right. Come on, Ruki. Don’t peek. Let’s go finish our shopping list.”

With that, we continued from aisle to aisle, filling our carts with what we needed for both homes. Then we stopped by some free-taste booths where the staff handed out samples of freshly steamed dumplings and little cups of fruit yogurt.

Eimi immediately zeroed in on it like a heat-seeking missile, dragging Ria along with her.

I guess picking those ingredients for the chocolate got them closer.

Eventually, we made our way to the registers. I turned when Eimi was paying for her cart. To not spoil whatever surprise they were plotting. I could hear their muffled giggles, which made the cashier glance over them when it was my cart’s turn.

By the time we stepped back out into the sunlight, the morning had warmed into a perfect summer day.

I carried our bags of groceries while the two girls each had a paper bag clutched tightly to their chests like they were guarding state secrets.

The plastic handles dug into my palms a little, but I didn’t mind. Ria kept sneaking glances at hers, an amused smile playing on her lips every time she thought I wasn’t looking. Eimi wasn’t much better. Her cheeks were flushed from the short walk in the sun and she kept adjusting the bag like the contents might spill out and ruin the surprise.

“Stop staring at my bag, Dumb-senpai,” Ria finally said without looking up. “You’re making me nervous. What if you guess what’s inside?”

“I already know what’s inside,” I shot back, leaning down just enough to murmur against her ear. “Chocolate. Lots of it. And probably a heart-shaped mold you’re gonna use because you’re a secret romantic.”

Ria’s cheeks went pink, but she didn’t deny it. She just huffed and pressed closer to my side, “You’re too confident. Maybe it’s something else. Maybe I bought ingredients to make something spicy. To punish you for being greedy.”

Eimi snorted from my other side, “Spicy? Ria-chan, you’re adorable. If you made anything spicy, Ruki would just eat it all and ask for seconds. He’s shameless like that.”

“You’re not wrong. Punish me all you want. I’ll take it. It’s the chocolate you’ll be making for me, after all.”

Ria rolled her eyes and pouted. Even without confirming anything, their reactions alone were enough for me to feel excited about it.

By the time we reached the gate, Anzu-nee was already waiting at the door with a familiar wry smile on her lips. She’d changed into something more comfortable, a loose tank top and shorts that showed off her toned legs but her hair was still damp from the shower, curling slightly at the ends.

“Took you long enough. Kitchen’s all yours. I even cleared the counters for your super-secret chocolate mission.”

Ria’s eyes sparkled as she darted past her with Eimi following closely. “Thank you, Big Sis Anzu! You’re the best!”

Anzu-nee blinked, caught off guard by the sudden affection, then laughed softly and ruffled Ria’s hair again as she passed.

Left at the door, she glanced up at me and said, “As for you… shameless brat, let them do what they want to do first. Put the bags down and follow me.”

“Follow you where?” I acted oblivious but I already knew where she wanted to drag me.

Somewhere private.

Somewhere we could pick up right where we’d left off earlier. Where she could have me all to herself alone.

Anzu-nee’s eyes narrowed as she grabbed my wrist and tugged me toward the stairs after I put the bags down.

“Don’t make me say it, shameless brat,” She muttered under her breath in a voice low enough that the girls in the kitchen wouldn’t hear. “You know exactly where.”

Her grip was firm as she led me up the stairs with quick, quiet steps. The house was silent except for the faint clatter of bowls and Ria’s bright laughter echoing from the kitchen, mixed with Eimi’s teasing replies.

Anzu-nee didn’t stop until we reached her bedroom door. She pushed it open and pulled me inside.

Looking at the same bed we rolled onto the last time I was here, the memories hit me like a rush of heat. The way she’d pulled me down with her, legs wrapping around my waist, her soft curves pressing against me as we lost ourselves in each other.

Anzu-nee let go of my wrist the second the door clicked shut, but she didn’t step away. She leaned back against it instead, arms crossing under her chest again in that way that pushed everything up and made it impossible not to stare. Her tank top was thin, clinging just enough to show the outline of her bra beneath, and those shorts were short enough to expose the smooth skin that I remembered caressing.

“Quit staring, shameless brat,” She growled as though she was trying to scold me but the way her eyes seemed to burn with her anticipation for this moment told me she liked how I couldn’t seem to take my eyes off of her.

“Can you blame me?” I stepped closer until there was barely space between us, my arms wrapping around her waist, “You drag me up here looking like this, and expect me not to?”

“Idiot… I didn’t bring you here for that… I need your help.”

“Help?”

“Look there, I… I can’t reach it.” Her eyes darted to the side, looking a little embarrassed, as she pointed at the top shelf of her closet, where a small box was just out of reach.

Yep. With her height, she probably couldn’t reach it. But there’s a chair by her desk… what a flimsy excuse.

Anzu-nee’s cheeks were flushed and she avoided my gaze like she was afraid I’d call her out right away. Nevertheless, the way her fingers fidgeted with the hem of her tank top gave her away completely.

“Help with that?” I asked as my voice lowered into a teasing tone, “If you want me to play along, then I’ll do it.”

She lightly shoved at my chest, clearly half-hearted, like always. “S-shut up. It’s really up there and I can’t reach it. I need it for… later.”

“Later, huh?” I murmured, leaning down until my lips brushed her ear. “Sure. I’ll get it. But I need a reward for it.”

She made a frustrated groan as she pinched my sides. But my naughty hands dipped lower, tracing the curve of her ass through those thin shorts. “You… shameless brat. You’ll only work with a reward. Is that it?”

“Not exactly. But I’ll love it if you do give me one.” I nipped her earlobe and felt her shiver against me before pulling back just enough to reach the shelf. I grabbed the box easily. It looks like a box where she put her old photos or collectibles from her childhood.

After taking it from me, she set it aside on her dresser without looking inside.

“Are you not gonna show me what’s inside, Anzu-nee?”

“I said later.” This time, she grabbed my shirt and yanked me down to her level. “Take your reward first, you shameless brat.”

Her lips pressed on mine, initiating a kiss that quickly turned passionate. Her tongue tangled with mine immediately, soft moans muffled against my mouth as her small body arched into me.

I lifted her easily, hands gripping her thighs as her legs wrapped around my waist, pulling me flush against her. The heat between her legs pressed right against my hardening cock, making us both groan into the kiss.

“Ruki… ahh… we don’t have much time,” She gasped when we broke for air, but her hips moved, grinding herself against me like she couldn’t stop. “They’ll… notice if we’re gone too long.”

“Then I’ll take this reward quickly,” I carried her to her bed and laid her down gently before climbing over her. My hands were already tugging her tank top up, exposing those full, perfect breasts spilling out of her bra.

I pushed the cups down, mouth closing around one stiff nipple, sucking hard enough to make her back arch off the bed with a sharp cry she tried to muffle against her hand.

Her fingers tangled in my hair, pulling me closer as her thighs squeezed my sides. “S-shameless Ruki… more.”

Look at this girl, it seems what happened earlier got her even more certain about our relationship, and she doesn’t want to hold back anymore.
