Stealing Spree-Novel

While I was out with Akane and the others at the Boxing Gym, these two, Shio and Nao, went around our city to sightsee and relax while talking about what they both wanted to do with me. Outside the city.

In the end, both Shio and Nao decided to watch the sunrise from the east with me. Maybe most people wouldn’t be able to see its significance especially if they’re living day to day in their normal, happy, adventurous life.

For those who just passed a difficult time or a problem they thought wouldn’t be solved, the rising sun could mean the start of a new chapter in their story.

And that’s where the two women’s line of thought came from when deciding what they wanted to do with me.

Our city was located in a prefecture just above the capital Tokyo; Saitama. However, it was located in the northern part of it.

Our destination was towards the eastern border and into the Ibaraki Prefecture. That's the closest one where you can find a beach to watch the sunrise. Still, because of the distance from our city, Shio would need to drive for almost two hours without stopping.

Although there’s a hint of worry in my voice when asking her if she would be fine driving that long, Shio brushed it off by saying ‘Leave it to the expert. Once you learned how to drive and got your license, I will definitely ask for a ride. We can go wherever you want, Ruru.’

I love that optimism…

I’m already reading about the basics of driving but without practice, that’s still not a skill. Besides, I’m still not qualified to get a car license, only a license for a motorcycle. Also, I need my own car for that, right? I don’t have enough to buy a motorcycle yet, much less buy a car.

Well, if I save my income for a few weeks, I can get a motorcycle but that’s not the ideal vehicle for me.

Half an hour later, we passed the border of our prefecture. The sky was still dark outside and there were little to no other cars yet, making our trip a smooth one.

At times, I would converse with Shio, to keep her consciousness awake while I kept on brushing Nao’s hair to let the girl get sufficient sleep even if the car was constantly shaking.

Well, I tired the two of them out last night. Even if Shio drank the strongest coffee coupled with those energy drinks, she’d still feel it in her body.

“It’s been a while since I've left our city. The only thing I could think of was those field trips that I couldn’t say no to.” I looked out the window and watched the changing scenery before my eyes.

When I looked at the front again, I saw Shio’s lips curled up in a gentle smile from the rearview mirror.

“Is that so? Well then, leave it to me to tour you around our country whenever we get the chance. Akane and the others can come with us.”

“Uh… Shio, have you heard what I said? I preferred not to leave on a trip. But those field trips from school were unavoidable. Not that I attended all of them. But still…”

Right. What use is a field trip? In my few experiences with it, it’s too restricting even with the free time allocated for us. Besides, with my mind geared up to continuously steal a girl for my desire, I didn’t have a lot of memories with it.

Perhaps, this year, we will be able to create memories… Shio, as our advisor, will surely come with us. And in our class, I have Satsuki, Aya, Nami, Saki, Hina and Chii.

Shio may even make it convenient for us if she puts those six in one room…

Uh… Of course, I won’t suggest that openly but knowing what my girls think, they’ll definitely think about the opportunity to have me for themselves.

Well, let’s not talk about that. That kind of trip happens during the second semester, after all.

“I heard you loud and clear, Ruru. Take it as me wanting you to ease your mind. We can go on to sightsee various landmarks. Stay at an inn together and live our life as a happily married couple…”

The last one was certainly an addition. She said that in a low enough voice coupled with her face taking on the crimson color once more. It’s safe to say that it’s some kind of fantasy she wanted to turn into reality. Her previous fantasy of having a secret relationship with a student was already a reality. Still, the scenario in her head was different from what actually happened.

“Mhm… That sounds great, Shio. I agree and will look forward to that.”

“Y-you agreed?”

“Of course. Or do you not want me to?”

“No! I want it! I only thought of suggesting it to think that…”

Her voice trailed again as she mumbled inaudibly from her seat. As I could only spy her face from the rearview mirror, I felt like I’m missing out on the glory of her adorable moments.

“You suggested that with the intention to help me unwind. I will always appreciate the thoughtfulness of all of you. That’s why if it will also make my Shio happy, then… to hell with not wanting to leave the city.”

At the end of my sentence, Shio laughed out loud. And from below, Nao’s hand reached for my nose and pinched it.

“You’re too loud. Come and give me a good morning kiss.”

The girl opened her beautiful eyes and although her words sounded like a complaint, the girl puckered her lips, waiting for me to grace it with mine.

“Nao. That’s unfair.”

“What? Shiori-nee. I heard you two earlier. You also asked for a kiss before driving.”

“Y-you heard that? Uhm… that’s a wake-up kiss. I’m still sleepy, you know?”

“Yeah, right. That’s not the only instance.”

“You, are you awake this whole time?” I interjected.

But then Nao narrowed her eyes and flashed a mischievous smile.

“No… That one’s a guess. Now, I’m jealous.” Upon saying that, she hooked her arm around my neck and pulled herself up. Instead of waiting for me to lean down and kiss her, she took the initiative for it.

“… Ruru. Give me one too!” And from the driver’s seat, Shio who’s acting like a teenager like Nao puffed up her cheeks to ask for the same thing.

And in this way, the remaining hour for our trip became a bit lively with Nao waking up.

Unlike me, the girl was too excited as she looked outside the car window. Whenever she would see something interesting, she would pull me to her side and show it to me.

And Shio, as someone knowledgeable and had more experience than us, she’d utter some trivia about the prefecture and its cities or towns we were passing by.

By the time we reached our destination, the dark color of the night had already turned into a deep purple. Moreover, on the horizon to the east, the different hues of red had just started to gradually cover the sky.

Apart from that, the beach sand and the water of the ocean glistened beautifully. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ (f)ir(e).nᴇt - novelenglish.net . bin

At this moment, although we were not alone as there were others who also had the same idea as us, all of us were staring out to wait for the sunrise.

“How beautiful…” I heard Nao muttering at my side as Shio found a place to park her car.
