Stealing Spree

Half an hour later, Sena, Marika and I left the Boxing Gym together. Ayu had to stay behind since she still had to help close up later. I asked her if she wanted me to buy her dinner. I could run to a restaurant and have a takeout for her but Ayu refused. Or rather, she told me that she wanted me to cook for her again next time. Just like last week when I jogged to her house with a packed breakfast.

Anyway, we had a great time within those thirty minutes. Marika got exposed to something we hadn't done yet. I mean, with Ayu and Sena missing me for a week, it was inevitable.

Still, Marika stayed throughout until I got to her. She did not say anything but I could tell that her curiosity about those intimate acts had just risen. Her face remained flushed pink even as we walked out of the gym.

"Ruki, this is on you. You should've told us you haven't done it with Marika yet. I thought for sure you would after last week..." Sena scolded me with a playful tone as she helped Marika on her feet as we walked towards the car that would take her home.

I could already see one of her bodyguards with a raised eyebrow, noticing Marika's state.

A wry smile formed on my lips as I couldn't really defend myself against it.

"I know, I know. But we're taking it slow. And she's still getting used to it," I replied but Marika immediately retorted as though telling me that I was wrong with my assumption.

"I want to do it with you too, Ruki-kun," She shyly whispered as she covered her reddened cheeks with her golden locks.

Her sudden confession took me aback but at the same time, it felt like I slapped myself in the face. I was so considerate that even my assumption was becoming one as well.

"Mhm. I heard you, Marika," I whispered back as I tried to ignore the glare coming from her bodyguards, both from the one inside the car and the other waiting outside it. "Let's find an opportunity. Together."

"Ruki is right, Sister Marika. It will be great if your first time is when you two are alone. He can focus on you, and you alone." Sena spoke up with a knowing smile although her tone sounded a little naughty. She was probably remembering our first time.

In any case, now that I am also about to have my first night with Rumi later... I shouldn't let the other girls wait for so long. Unfortunately, it's the opportunity that's limiting us. I can't just set aside everything. No matter what happened, I still wanted them to feel special...

Although there was that time with Hina when she came to me herself or with Ayu that happened in that empty waiting room, as much as possible, I wanted to avoid it not becoming a spontaneous decision.

Among my girls, aside from Marika, there are still Chii, Hana, Hifumi, Eimi, Maaya, Misaki, Mio, Juri, Fuyu, Hitomi, Ryouko-san, and Mutsumi-senpai who also more or less expressed their willingness to cross that final line with me. Not to mention, I haven't counted Komoe, Kazuha-nee, Azusa, Hanabi, and my adorable juniors; Sumire and Umi yet.

But like I said, I couldn't just rush it. It would feel less special if I did... But I got it, I couldn't prolong it any longer.

I should be the one actively looking for that opportunity and not wait for them to do so...

What a dilemma.

And somehow... I couldn't help but think... Am I the only one who has this kind of problem? What a lucky bastard!

After a while, we reached the car.

Sena put on a smile. She's not intimidated by Marika's bodyguards at all. Because in her mind, she could take them down if ever. And even if she fails, I am here with her to finish that job. That's how high her confidence in me is.

"See you tomorrow, Ruki-kun. I'll give you a ride back for your side job of instructing Koharu-chan." Marika winked at me before entering the car. We hadn't talked about that yet, but she clearly said that out loud for her bodyguards to hear.

They looked at each other, then shifted their focus on me, their gazes stabbing me.

I waved away the pressure and smiled at Marika, agreeing to her suggestion. "Sounds like a plan. I'll see you then." I watched as the car pulled away, leaving me with Sena who looked at me with a meaningful smirk as if she had seen through my head.

"What's with that look?" I pinched her cheek and grabbed her hand.

Sena giggled, her eyes gleaming with mischief. "It's just fun to see them so protective over you. I thought you got her issue handled already?" She whispered as we strolled down the sidewalk. I decided to walk her home too so our time was extended.

Akane and the others already finished their karaoke an hour ago and they had gone home. "Well, that's their job, I guess? To protect her. Even from me. As for her issue, well, they're not stopping me from picking her up every morning to prevent that one idiot from ruining everything." I shrugged, referring to the pompous idiot who'd be back at school this Monday. Thinking about it, will they try something tomorrow? I haven't given an apology and instead humiliated the idiot more these past few days. Moreover, Ichihara-san hadn't called me yet regarding her husband's decision over my employment as Koharu-chan's instructor.

I guess I'll just deal with it when it comes.

"I see. That sounds like a hassle, Ruki. But if you need muscle. You know you can call us up to beat up some wannabes, right?" Sena playfully flexed her bicep as she offered help.

But well, this was her way to lighten our mood.

I flicked her forehead before saying, "Your fist is not for street brawl, girl. Only use that when you're going to protect yourself or someone close to you. Leave that part to me. I mean, I'm the one who has the reputation for taking down delinquents. Leave the muscle work to me."

"Eh... There you go trying to shoulder everything again."

"It's not about that. I'm saying it'll be bad for your career if you let yourself be dragged into this kind of scuffle. Focus on that sparring match and the upcoming competition. Prove to everyone that you have what it takes to be a pro." I pinched her cheek again but this time, I used both hands, squeezing her beautiful face with my palms, "Don't worry, if I really need help, I know you and Akane are my best fighters."

"Pfft. That sounded wrong. But I like it!" Sena pouted before chuckling as she grabbed my hands, sliding them down from her face before stretching my arms open so she could slot herself into my chest. The onlookers watching us act like this clicked their tongues for our public display.

Anyway, apart from the two I mentioned, there's also Hitomi - and my mother who will definitely come to my aid if I'm outclassed.

In any case, I'm still being cautious enough not to get into trouble, right? Otherwise, I would've bashed Ichihara Jun's many times over.

After a short detour to a crepe shop for Sena's craving, I escorted her home like I promised.
