Stealing Spree

Chapter 1195: Mutsumi

Matsunaga Mutsumi. She’s supposed to be one of the two girls who graduated just a few months ago. They got cut off but when Haruko called the girl for help, she answered right away.         

    

Well, from what I heard before, they’re more of best friends than lovers and there were no hard feelings when Haruko let go of her. And when I got mentioned, the girl expressed her wish to meet me. As the guy that changed Haruko.     

This meeting should’ve been last week but she got busy with something else, postponing it to this week. And expecting this meeting to happen soon, I simply acknowledged it and followed Mina to the Poem Appreciation Club.     

On the way, she told me what to expect from the girl. Her personality and her perceived weirdness.     

Although I could use my eyes to see her for myself, I couldn’t help but imagine her from Mina’s description.     

A rather masculine girl who could probably lift her on one hand.     

That’s a very vague description, right? Am I about to see a big, muscular woman? One that might be a regular at a fitness gym?     

Well, that’s not impossible. If she’s someone who was used to lifting furniture and building secret rooms then it’s more plausible.     

In any case, to see is to believe. I’ll stop imagining and wait for our imminent meeting.     

Soon enough, we arrived in front of the Poem Appreciation Club. Mina stopped before the door and faced me, “Here we are, Ruki. Uhm. She wanted to meet you alone so… I’ll be in the other room, let’s go back together when you’re done.”     

“Alright. Thank you, Mina. I’ll pick you up later.”     

I thought she’d be with me or Haruko and the other girls would be inside. That would be easier for me, yes. Nonetheless, it’s not as if I would be afraid to meet a new girl.     

And as someone who could help us decorate our clubroom, that’s enough reason for me to beg her if need be.     

After watching Mina enter the neighboring Book Club, I straightened my back and prepared myself before pressing my knuckle close to the door.     

Knock, knock, knock.     

Three not-so-loud knocks later, I could hear someone walking to the door. After a few clicks and the sound of the knob being turned, the creaking noise coming from the opening of the door filled my ears.     

With my eyes trained in front of me, I instantly saw the figure of the woman inside it.     

Contrary to my wild imagination, the girl I saw was even shorter than me. No, she’s even shorter than Himeko who’s about a head shorter than me.     

Moreover, instead of a muscular, weightlifting girl, I found a short-haired girl. It’s so short it might be mistaken as a boy’s hairstyle. It’s a little bushy but that’s probably intentionally styled like that. She’s wearing somewhat stylish clothing. An off-shoulder crop top without even a hint of bra straps, ripped jeans that allowed me to peek at some of her skin, and a pair of gray rubber shoes.     

Wait, was that even stylish? I found that rather peculiar. She’s more like someone who’d go skating. Anyway, apart from the hair, I couldn’t find what Mina described as a masculine girl who could carry her on one hand. She’s too different from what I imagined. She has a pretty face that’s really suited to her hair. Perhaps if she also wore earrings, she’d look more gorgeous than girls who rely on heavy makeup.     

In any case, as they said and as something also applicable to me; you cannot judge someone easily through physical appearance alone. Who knows? She might also be able to lift me.     

Upon seeing me, the girl grinned widely as she opened the door to allow me inside.     

“You must be Onoda. Come on in. You have a class soon. I won’t take too much of your time.” She said as she walked back to where she was sitting even before I could take a step forward.     

A little dazed, I followed her and closed the door behind me.     

Instead of using the low table where I often drank my tea with Mina, the college girl, Matsunaga Mutsumi continued to the other tall table that Minori and Yuika-senpai often used when they didn’t want to deal with me.     

“Uh. Matsunaga-senpai, right? It’s nice meeting you.”         

    

Before seating across from her, I did my greeting, even bowing in slight gratitude.     

“Mutsumi is fine. You’re Haru-chan’s man that she often bragged to me about. I won’t treat you as a normal junior, is that okay with you?”     

“If you’re comfortable with that then Mutsumi can also call me by my name.”     

“Nah. Not yet. I still can’t see why she got this obsessed with you, after all. Go on, sit.”     

So, from those words, she wanted to test me out, huh? Acting too humble or soft would possibly be a bad idea. Better act normally.     

“Alright, excuse me.”     

After settling my butt down, the girl in front of me leaned forward and stared at my face as though scrutinizing each and every detail of it.     

I maintained eye contact with her and never budged at it.     

I had no idea what was running in her mind but gradually, I could understand now why she wanted to meet me alone.     

“A handsome guy with a gentle but unyielding pair of eyes. Your nose is perfect for a pinch and your lips… that looks like something you often used. It’s even swelling. Did you and Mina-chan do something before heading here?” Starting with a murmur, Mutsumi gradually muttered her observation of me. Her eyebrows even raised when she focused on my lips. Moreover, she’s right on the money on her guess.     

“Yes, we did. I don’t know if you’re aware but I’m also in a relationship with her.”     

“Uh-huh. That was pretty obvious when I saw her earlier. So, you’re also taking Haru-chan’s girls with you?”     

“I think wording it like that doesn’t sound good. Mutsumi-senpai, I also fell in love with them. If you heard about me from Haruko, she probably didn’t skip on the part where I was a little uncontrollable before.”     

“I see. Yeah, she did mention that. You had this strange taste to steal someone but in the process of doing so, that girl fell in love with you. You changed, or so I heard. But you see Onoda, I care for Haru-chan. And certainly, my juniors in this club as well. Can you prove your resolve to me?”     

After saying that, the girl stood up and walked over to my side. After taking the chair next to me, she placed her arm over my shoulder and pulled me close to her, pressing my head to her surprisingly plump chest.     

Alright. I thought I would be here talking about how we would decorate the clubhouse. I guess I expected too much when Haruko said someone was going to help us. And this was definitely her reason for accepting her call for help.     

To gauge me.     

“Is Mutsumi-senpai trying to seduce me?” With her arm tightening around my neck, my cheek was about to be buried further in her softness.     

However, the girl doesn’t seem to mind it. She’s even smirking as she stared down at me.     

“What? No, of course! What made you think that?” She replied reflexively. She’s surprised by my question but it’s not enough to make her falter. She still appeared rather confident and jolly.     

“Anyone would think so if you did this to him. If this isn’t what I think it is, I hope senpai can enlighten me.”     

“Alright, alright. Hear me out.” Mutsumi-senpai cupped my cheeks and lifted my head up to her face level, “What I meant to your resolve is this…”     

As her voice trailed, the girl’s grin disappeared. What replaced it was a rather enticing smile before her lips pouted in preparation for something I knew so well.     

In but a moment, the girl made her move, bringing down her lips on mine, taking it as though it was her plan all along.     

And honestly, with her words being too different from her actions, I failed to dodge this. A moment’s notice wasn’t enough and even my reflexes were somehow hindered by her.         

    

I guess I let my guard down.     

This girl kissed me without rhyme or reason and she seemed very eager to do it. She’s not a beginner in this. She clearly knew what she was doing. Her soft lips enthusiastically sucked on mine as if it was a delectable candy. A few seconds later, the girl’s hand slid off my cheeks and crossed to the back of my head, deepening this kiss.     

If I wasn’t moving at first, I was compelled to do so when the girl’s tongue started invading.     

Instead of passively receiving her, I counterattacked, entangling her tongue with mine and sucking her in.     

Now that I started responding, the girl quickly reacted. Her eyes went wide in surprise but soon relaxed as she closed them. Before long, Mutsumi-senpai stopped her attacks and received mine instead.     

Using this as a chance, I broke off and pulled away. And noticing that, the girl opened her eyes, and put a finger on her lips, wiping the trace of what had just transpired, “That’s delicious, Onoda. I got so into it that I let my guard down.”     

“Honestly, I did the same. I never expected Mutsumi-senpai to do it without giving me a sign. You got me there.” I replied, shrugging my shoulders in the process.     

I couldn’t say it was as delicious as she claimed it to be. I mean I could still taste Mina after what happened earlier. But one thing is for sure… this girl in front of me. She’s a dangerous one.     

“I still haven’t seen your resolve though. Wanna do it again?” Mutsumi-senpai laughed a bit before smiling meaningfully. With the two of us still as close as earlier, it’s only a matter of initiating it again or not.     

However, unlike the first, she’s now waiting for my answer.
