Stealing Spree

Just when our situation had just started going in our desired direction, Hana’s challenging declaration fired up the girls more than I thought.

It’s actually the first time that they have been like this. They clearly expressed their desire not to back down against the challenge.

Shizu’s possessive declaration failed to produce that same effect. I mean, with how she’s accepting of my relationship with the others, everyone treated that as the girl’s stubbornness to accept that she’s one of the many.

Yue’s introduction earlier also didn’t cause that much of a problem. They even welcomed her excitedly. But thinking about it, Yue clearly expressed how she wanted to fit in. She easily accepted that she couldn’t be the only one.

In this case, Hana openly and courageously stated how she desired to steal me using any means possible. It’s a declaration of war… with me as the trophy.

Well, I never got to say my piece so… looking at the current time, I decided to dedicate the remaining time before the fifth period to calm the girls down and express my take on this situation.

I never got to say anything. Hana took the floor completely and ended the call without even hearing my response to everything she said. I could call her through the number she used but I doubt she’d answer after that declaration.

“Nami…” I started with the girl still comfortably sitting on my lap. After gently caressing her cheeks, I unhesitatingly kissed her.

And following that, I pulled them closer one by one and did the same thing. Once all of their attention focused on me, I raised a question that would definitely ease their minds.

“Alright. Hana must’ve left a bold declaration. But do you all think I can be stolen by her just because she says so? Who am I again?”

“The idiotic guy who never stops getting girls left and right,” Satsuki answered first. Although her voice sounded annoyed, her lips so easily curved up into playful smiles.

“You’re my Ruki.” Aya’s answer might be simple but that’s all she needed to express it. She then grabbed my outstretched hand and endearingly hugged it to her chest while showing a relieved smile.

“The persistent guy who showed me how it feels to have my love reciprocated…” Hina might’ve said that in a low voice but I heard her perfectly. She’s so close to me that the only thing preventing her from taking my lap was Nami who occupied that spot.

“Uhm… You’re the guy who prevented me to run away and hole up in my guilt as well as face my inferiority complex.” Saki’s face brightened as she recalled how our relationship progressed to this point. It might’ve started with me urging her to take all the chances she could get but once we became connected, literally, I slowly dug up what’s truly holding her back from expressing herself freely.

“Uh… You’re the reason I changed a lot, Kii. I should’ve hated you yet here I am once again, fallen into your clutches…” Chii bitterly smiled at first but she shook her head and cleared up her mind before sneaking in a kiss on me.

“You’re the shameless guy who took advantage of me… But I’m glad you did. Otherwise, I won’t be this happy just being close to you.” As the last person to answer, Nami surely contemplated how she would word it…

Although differing answers, it allowed them to understand what I’m getting at.

The fire in their eyes was silently quelled as they waited for my next words.

“If there’s someone who’s going to do the stealing, it’s me. Am I right? If Hana really showed up in front of me to attempt what she just declared, you all can rest assured that the outcome will just be one of the two… This is another shameless statement but bear with me, alright? Either she will fail to steal me or I will bring her back with me, making her the same as all of you.”

That’s also a confident declaration from me. Even more confident than how Hana did it earlier.

As soon as I finished with what I said, all six of them started laughing nonstop.

“That reminds me… No one can top this guy from shamelessness. We’ve gotten so spoiled by him that we started forgetting how he is… originally.” Hina said while wiping away the tears that formed in her eyes from laughing too much.

“I agree… These days, it’s just him spoiling us. How I missed the shameless idiot who visited my home just to steal me?” Satsuki pinched my cheeks and pulled me up from the seat. Nami gave way and allowed me to be taken by Satsuki.

Following that, the girl dragged me to another chair where she straddled me, her lips and tongue quickly taking their liberties on my neck.

Perhaps I should interpret this as the girl’s way to reverse the situation. Instead of me spoiling her just like yesterday or last Saturday inside that locker room, she’s now trying to spoil me with what little time we had.

“I think you’re doing it wrong, Satsuki. If you spoil him like that, he’s just going to turn it around. Before you know it, you’ll once again be spoiled by him… If you know what I mean…” Nami naughtily winked, implying something.

And that immediately made Satsuki stop.

Well, she’s not wrong though. It’s so easy for me to flip this situation around. Knowing the girl’s sensitive spots, even my hands are enough to make her surrender to the pleasure and leave everything to me to spoil her…

In any case, Saki, Aya, and Chii also said something about my shamelessness before attempting something to dig and pull it back to the surface.

“I think you girls are forgetting something. Even if I spoil you, I’m still as shameless as I can be.” Once everyone settled down, I stood up and stretched my arms wide, hugging them all at the same time. The girls did their best to enclose their arms around me. They’re still being competitive in trying to spoil me.

“Anyway, like I said. Hana won’t be able to do what she declared. But at the same time, I won’t stop you if you want to protect me from her. It’s a man’s fantasy to be protected by their girls, you know? Well, it should be singular since no one was as shameless as me.” I continued.

And this time, the girls instantly agreed, the fire that I had quelled earlier returning in their eyes. But at least, it’s not as ablaze as before.

They all looked at each other and communicate telepathically. Or so that’s how it appeared.

For the next few minutes, the girls started strategizing among themselves.

I was put to the sidelines while being accompanied by one of them on rotation.

Rae also showed up at one point.

Before I could inform Akane and the others about Hana’s call, they have already done it through their group chat.

Furthermore, they started a group video call and started a meeting to create countermeasures in case Hana started with her plan.

As the only spectator at that meeting, I couldn’t help but be amazed at their unity to face a common enemy.

Once again, I am reminded of how amazing my girls are… also, it shows how possessive they are towards me.

If Hana witnessed this scene, I wonder how she’s going to react?

Ah. Right. The love letter wasn't forgotten. They brought it up to the table to speculate who could be the sender. Nonetheless, that’s a minor topic compared to the clear threat they felt from Hana’s declaration.
