Chapter 1435 Picking Up Hina

"Have I kept you waiting?" I smilingly asked as soon as I stepped inside their clubroom where she was left alone.

"Yeah. You did." Hina teasingly answered. She then stood up and waited for me to approach her before jumping in my arms.

Well, in a way, I truly kept her waiting because I still failed to drop or cut off with my usual routine.

It's been more than half an hour since the club hours concluded. The sky was already in a darker orange hue, sending out the last vestiges of sunlight from the west.

Even though the first thing I did after escorting the girls from my club was to come here and tell her to wait for me so we could ride the bus together, I still got stalled for a bit because I added more routes to take.

For example, I visited Shizu and Watanabe at the Student Council to personally thank them for their earlier help. And with Shizu still in the mood for teasing me, I failed to leave right away.

On the side, Watanabe once again witnessed something she shouldn't have. Or maybe, she intentionally remained inside the room to watch us be all over each other. Whichever the case, I saw her scribbling something again on her notepad.

Apart from that trip to the Student Council, I also knocked on the Game Club for Maaya and the Miura sisters.

Uh. It should only be Maaya and Komoe but Miura-senpai also went out to see me when she heard my voice from inside their clubroom. So, in a way, it became like a package deal to have the two sisters being all over me.

Moreover, even if I didn't flirt with all three, the eyes of the boys from their club, except Hashimoto, flared up and hatefully or enviously glared at me. The 2nd year gamer girl couldn't care less though. She had her headphones on and was busy tapping away on her smartphone.

I left that clubroom with Maaya in tow since my next destination was the Book Club.

Ah. No. Maaya asked me if we could wait for Misaki to show up before continuing.

And so, we spent a few minutes in the staircase area until the forehead girl showed up. While we were at it, I got lectured by Maaya for not being careful. Everything that happened around me or those concerning me didn't escape her ears, after all.

Then, after escorting them all - including even Kanzaki who was lingering at the club - I finally managed to return to this clubroom, only to leave again with Nami and the other girls along with Shizu who already finished up at the Student Council.

I actually tried escorting them to their bus stop, like usual. However, as soon as we reached the 1st floor of the Club Building, Nami, Shizu, Saki, Arisa, and Izumi pushed me into the abandoned clubroom that we were using for the Mentor Program, not minding the three cucks who were still going home regularly with them as part of one circle.

As for Kikuchi... Well, she stood guard at the door at Hina's behest. Apparently, they already talked about this 'ambush' even before my arrival.

Instead of letting me be as diligent as before to walk them to their bus stop, they wanted me to return to Hina as soon as possible. They're all aware of her special day, after all. Perhaps if it was any other day, they would just suggest it to me rather than force it like this.

Their concern about how tired I would be from going back and forth to school everyday was just never-ending. Even if they understood that I enjoyed doing that for them, they just couldn't help it because of their love for me.

That aside, as for what happened inside the abandoned clubroom... It's obvious. My girls took turns and partly ganged up on me that my lips never found rest and my hands either got clasped by them or hugged in between their squishy front.

Even Izumi who was acting like she was just pulled along by Arisa failed to resist when I called her name. For the girl, the others let her solo me which made the fake delinquent more embarrassed.

By the time we left that room, all of us looked like we went inside a sauna from how sweaty and red-faced we became.

And since it was only at most five minutes, the girls refrained from pulling down my pants. They groped me enough to wake my little brother up though. They explained that they did that as a part of their counter-tease. They all laughingly imagined how I would explain it to Hina when she noticed.

Little did they know, the girl was just as mischievous as them.

Right. Going back to the present, even if she didn't notice it right away because her eyes were focused on my head, the swell of my pants failed to escape her notice.

While I was still thinking of a witty comeback to her reply, she moved backward for a bit, opening a space between us. And obviously, she glanced down and heatedly stared at it.

Upon noticing that, I couldn't help but fake a cough to get her attention again before saying, "I apologize for that. It failed to calm down on my way back here."

"Oh. Does that mean it's like that not because of me?" With the same mischievous smile, the girl leered at me.

Naturally, she's just being playful but as a guy with many girlfriends, it's inevitable to be a little careful of what comes out of my mouth, right?

Unfortunately, my stupid honesty sometimes works against me, "Partly, I guess? It was on its way to calming down naturally. The thought of being with you and holding you again became another stimulant. Also, the way you bumped on it delivered another pump of my blood to it, warming it up again."

Hina attentively listened to my explanation while drawing circles on my chest but as soon as I finished, the girl burst into laughter, "Pfft. Ruki, you don't need to detail it like that. I understand. They did that to tease you, no? The fact that you also returned here quicker than I expected gave it away."

Hina then closed our distance again and pressed herself to it. Following that, she grabbed my arms and tugged at them as though she was asking me to embrace her tightly. When I did so, even pushing her back to subtly grind it on her, the girl pulled my head down and stood on her toes to whisper in my ear in a very seductive tone, "Let me feel this warmth for a moment before we go, Ruki."

Well, if she said it like that… How could I resist? Besides, knowing that we were now alone in this club room without anyone disturbing us, my mind also focused solely on her.

"I'm thinking the same thing… But will we be fine going home late? Didn't they prepare a party for you?"

It's her birthday and since she invited me to come, I expect some kind of celebration there. Furthermore, there's their lively neighborhood that was always getting together whatever the occasion.

"Silly guy. It's not a party… Just a dinner celebration in our house. However, thinking back to my previous birthdays… our whole neighborhood was probably there during the day."

"Even without the celebrant?"

"Yeah. Weird, no?"

"Indeed. It is but I could only compare that to our neighborhood where there's little to no socializing with neighbors."

Hina laughed again and we soon moved on from that topic. And with confirmation that it didn't matter whether we arrived late or not, Hina and I heatedly stared at each other and communicated our burning desire.

A moment later, our lips finally met as we let go of any inhibitions limiting us…
