Stealing Spree-Novel

Picking up Yae and Ririka didn't take that long. After all, they're already waiting near the station at Ririka's neighborhood.

I sped through the street to reach them quickly – though it was impossible to make the train go faster than it was. In any case, I still arrived there relatively quickly because my worrywart trait was once again in full throttle. Because I asked them to wait for me outside when I left the house with Fuyu, I couldn't help but overthink that someone could bother or hit on them, like that time with Aoi and Ria.

Thankfully, nothing of the sort happened. Furthermore, the two kept on updating me every few minutes. They even went to the convenience store nearby, buying snacks for the night – even if they had just eaten dinner.

On my way to them, I called them through a video call, keeping them company while we talked about our day.

And upon arriving at their location, the two girls didn't waste any moment to sidle up to me, hooking their arms on mine, not minding the other people who could see us as we walked to the station.

Well, there's nothing to worry about that part. It's already deep in the night. Moreover, I put my back to work as their boyfriend, making sure that no one around our age was around. I even picked a train car where we could take a corner and a little privacy.

Thanks to that, we got some quality time in there, satisfying their hunger for my affection. Likewise, they also did the same for me.

Ririka even sat in between my legs, letting me hold her like that for the whole duration of our train ride. Well, I didn't only hold her. Taking advantage that no one was around, I made sure to dote on her a lot.

As for Yae, she acted as our lookout while also occasionally taking her chances to take a bite at me.

"Looking at you three, I'm guessing you've used every possible chance to have a go at each other." With a raised eyebrow, Akane commented on our arrival. Since I already informed her that we were on our way back, the silly girl didn't wait for me to pick her up next door. Instead, she made sure to position herself at the front door to flaunt her 'wife' status again.

But seeing how I basically wrapped myself around Ririka, maintaining our closeness even after leaving the train, Akane couldn't do that anymore.

Furthermore, Yae was also comfortably leaning against me with a triumphant smile on her lips.

She faced Akane's gaze and answered on behalf of us three, "You know how sweetie is, Akane. He's always the type to dote on us if there's a chance. Look at him not wanting to let go of Ririka."

Hearing that, the girl fully enclosed in my arms giggled in satisfaction. She then placed her hand on my cheek and guided my head down to give her another kiss.

Naturally, I didn't think twice about doing so. But soon afterward, I turned to Yae to do the same before also reaching my hand to Akane, pulling her over to me to give her the same treatment.

I know. They wouldn't really mind if I only favored Ririka this time, there'd be plenty of chances later, after all. But since they're already here, why waste the chance?

Once we were done sharing warm kisses, Akane stepped aside, opening the way for us as she teasingly said, "Husband, hurry and go take Riri upstairs. I'm sure you can't wait to push her down the bed."

"Do you think I'm that much of a pervert, Akane?"

"What? You're not?"

"Well, I am but…"

I tried to argue but I knew how futile it was… I'm really thinking about that, after all. Doting on the girl on the train and on our way here already woke up my desire for her.

"Sweetie, there's no use denying it," Yae added, tapping my shoulder and pushing my back. She even raised her thumb, acting more supportive.

And lastly, Ririka also added, "Yeah… Ruki, I feel it poking my back."

Uh… I also can't deny that.

And due to that, with her words as the final straw that broke the camel's back, my restraint snapped in two.

Tightening my embrace on the girl, I heatedly stared at Akane and Yae first before picking up Ririka in a princess carry.

Yeah. That's me trying to imply that I also want them, not only Ririka. However, even if they understood it, the two girls quickly came up with obvious excuses.

Akane used the tea, saying she was going to brew it while Yae grabbed the bags containing the snacks they bought and the costume for my cosplay.

Understanding Akane and Yae's train of thought, they wanted to give this moment solely to Ririka.

Well, for sure, they're taking into account that this should be Ririka's first time sleeping over again after I took her back in. And since the night wouldn't end right away… they also gave me this chance to fully dote on the girl.

Really, they're taking up my 'consideration' too much. But I couldn't really blame them for that, right? Like I wished, they're also working for the harmony of our complex relationship. I should be happy with that, right? But somehow, it still left a bad taste in my mouth.

I didn't want them to restrain themselves for me or the other girls… I'll satisfy all of them even if it's the last thing I will do.

But well, I was surely overthinking this a lot, as always…

Having reached that point, I sighed inwardly and shook off any negative thoughts in my mind.

I let go of my intention to have them come with us upstairs.

"Alright, you two. We'll be back soon. Ririka, hold onto me."

Ririka nodded, clinging to my neck as her undeniable joy and anticipation soared. She then turned to the two girls, mouthing 'thank you'.

With that, Akane and Yae sent us off with their eyes as I traversed the few steps to the stairs.

Looking back, my silly wife and normally clingy girl waved their hands jubilantly. Reading what they were saying through their lips, a grin couldn't help but form on my face.ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

"We'll squeeze you out later so… save some for us!"

Uh… Thinking about it, how many times have I been squeezed today? I already lost count this morning…

As soon as I put the girl down on our bed, I noticed Ririka covering her mouth as she funnily stared at me. It's different from the joy and anticipation she showed earlier. It feels like she's teasing me about something I am clueless about.

"Hmm? Ririka?" I asked her, trying to figure that out.

But as I did so, she burst into laughter yet it's not in a demeaning way. Instead, I could sense that she's enjoying a certain aspect of me.

"What is it, Ruki? Are you not going to climb up?" Her laughter stopped and tilted her head cutely.

"I am. But Ririka, can you tell me what was so funny? I felt out of the loop there." Yeah. No matter how I think about it, I failed to understand. And that's why rather than try to figure that out, it's best to ask her directly.

Upon hearing that, the girl burst into laughter again. But this time, she grabbed onto me and pulled me up to the bed before snuggling in my embrace, "Hehe, curious, are you? But it's nothing much, Ruki. Let's see… I thought you still looked really cool and handsome even when you were upset. Not that I've seen you upset before but that's how it feels this time."

Huh? What is she saying? Since when did I…

As I was thinking that, I got interrupted by her sweet laughter.

"Ruki, you're probably thinking 'When did I feel upset', am I correct? You failed to notice it but it's obvious to me and maybe to Akane and Yae too." She then reached for my cheeks and squeezed them between her palms before continuing, "If I'm not wrong, you also want them here with us. However, because you're all over me or just the fact that they're having more time with you than I do, they allowed me to have this moment with you. You love them just as much as me so you can't help but feel a little upset when they're acting that considerate. Am I wrong?"

As soon as she finished that explanation, the girl bit onto my pouted lips before giggling again.

Uh… Somehow, I couldn't find words to refute all that.

But really, since when are my girls already this proficient at reading me? The more I spend time with them, the more they seem to find new things about me.

Is this the power of love? Maybe. Or I was just too obvious back there. I failed to straighten my face after overthinking like that.

"What can I say? I don't think I can deny that." In the end, that's all I could answer.

"You don't have to… Just say yes, Ruki. It's fine for you to be more expressive. Remember, you're not the old Ruki anymore. Your desire is not the only thing occupying your mind." Ririka relaxed her hands as she started caressing me, her affection flowing through her fingertips, "At the end of the day, we all know how much you love us. And for the record, we also love you a lot. Getting upset is a normal emotion. Express it and improve from it. It's not like it's going to break our relationship. Instead, it will only make it stronger after we resolve it."

Ending her words like that, Ririka warmly smiled as she waited for me to react.

And somehow, my body moved on its own, hugging her tightly and pulling her up to plant my lips on hers. Her words clearly resonated in my chest and I'm more than grateful for it, "I don't know how many times I've said this but… I'll repeat this as many times as I can… I'm really the luckiest guy to have you."

"Geez, now you're being too cheesy, Ruki. I love you…" Responding to my kiss, Ririka snuggled closer.

"I love you too," I thought of just using gestures to respond to that but there were times when saying it vocally was better. And this is one of those times.

Although bringing her here started with just my desire to be with her on the same bed again, this girl taught me an important lesson.

Nonetheless, even if that's the case, we're still going to do it. Making love is always the best expression to show affection to one another, after all.
