Stealing Spree-Novel

When I reached the Student Council Room, I was just right on time as they were just gearing up for today’s meeting.

After the event that transpired four days ago, the awkward silence that suddenly filled the room upon my appearance was a given.

The Secretary looked on quietly while his girlfriend, Watanabe flashed a knowing smile. It’s almost as though she’s cheering for me to not dilly-dally and hurry up to sit on the empty seat on Shizu’s right.

It didn’t come off as a surprise that only the Vice President showed an abject repulsion over my appearance. But perhaps afraid that Shizu would shut him down again, he kept mum. This chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ - ɴovᴇlbin

Meanwhile, Shizu remained at her seat, amused as she watched me walk towards her.

But instead of sitting down so that they could start the meeting with my inclusion, I walked to the side and began preparing tea for everyone.

Seeing that, I heard Shizu clicking her tongue before standing up and pulling me back to the table. And perhaps to keep me from standing up again, she had me sit on her chair before settling down in between my opened legs. Just like what happened last Monday.

“This is ridiculous! This is the Student Council, not your dating hangout spot! Can we be professional here?!”

Fuming through his nose, Inugaki, the Vice President, finally had his fuse blown up as he crisply slapped the table and barked at us exasperatedly.

The couple on the side of the long table kept their silence but it’s clear that even the Secretary had the same sentiment. Just that, he’s as guilty as us when he brought his girlfriend aboard the Student Council. Moreover, there were times when he was flirting with Watanabe.

In the end, it’s just Inugaki who scowled and raged like a dog who got hurt from watching his owner clutching another dog.

Uh… If I used that analogy, I would also become a dog. Well, that’s not important.

Shizu wasn’t even fazed with that after all. She even whispered for me to hug her tightly before raising her head to meet Inugaki’s gaze.

“That’s true, Vice President. I’m just keeping my leash on this guy. I apologize if this irks you.”

Inugaki was stumped. For Shizu to shamelessly deny that this was a flirty act but instead leashing me to her, he lost whatever prepared responses in his mind.

With his scowl twisting as if he ate something sour, Inugaki clenched his trembling fist before gradually sitting back down on his seat.

As if what she said wasn’t enough, Shizu followed up.

“If Vice President also found a girl he likes, in light that we’re all a couple here, I will be turning a blind eye if you bring her here. Moreover, I’d put her in the same position as this idiot behind me. What do you think?”

Even though I could only see a part of her face, this girl was undoubtedly having a blast jabbing at Inugaki.

If I had to guess, she’s putting on a show for me as she poured out her accumulated grievances from how Inugaki acted. He most likely gave her a hard time during these past three days.

Looking at Watanabe who’s covering her mouth in a bid not to burst into laughter, my guess was probably close to reality.

I mean. Now that I’m here, Shizu was feeling more invincible. She knew that if ever Inugaki tried to strongarm her, I would definitely not standby.

If that’s true, I would have to pry out what happened from this girl’s mouth later. Or I could ask Watanabe.

“President. I’m getting mad for your sake. If the students and the Student Council Advisor heard about this, your position will be threatened.” Inugaki said while trying to maintain the calm in his voice.

Unfortunately, it couldn’t completely mask his outrage just a few seconds ago. He gritted his teeth and made sure not to look at us while uttering all that.

Anyway, for him to find that kind of justification with his actions, if there were audiences around us, it’s not an exaggeration to say that he might be applauded by it. It’s within reason after all.

For the honored Student Council to turn into a place where we openly flirted with each other, it’s truly degrading to think so.

However, Shizu remained nonchalant. It’s as if everything was still in her control.

She drew backward, putting her whole weight on me. And while enjoying my arms wrapped around her navel, Shizu dropped another bomb for the poor Vice President.

“Advisor? Don’t worry, Vice President. Sensei is well aware of my relationship with this guy. I introduced him to her last week.”

Shizu even reached to the back of my neck, pulling my head down as she pressed our cheeks together.

This girl… she’s also restraining herself in her own way. If she’s all out in showing off our relationship, she had long asked me for a kiss.

Anyway, that advisor must be Hayashi-sensei. And considering Watanabe and her boyfriend both had a puzzled expression on their faces, they probably hadn’t met her yet but clearly, they heard about the Student Council’s Advisor.

As for her concern towards the students seeing this, there’s none. No matter what, she still had her head on her shoulder, she wouldn’t recklessly put her reputation to a test. Although she might be serious about showing me off as hers during the previous occasions, that's just her wishful thinking. In the end, her place here was still important and she wouldn’t jeopardize it by herself. Moreover, with the progress of our relationship reaching this point, the girl was more or less satisfied to keep it inside this room or when we were alone together.

Without waiting for Inugaki or the other two to react to what she just said, Shizu continued. “Alright. For your peace of mind. This is supposed to be a secret but I can tell you all about this ahead of time… I’m going to groom him as my successor. That’s why whether you like it or not, I will keep him by my side.”

With another bomb dropped by Shizu, the livid Vice President and the couple all stared at me as another bout of awkward silence ensued.

A while later, with the matter of me becoming her successor as the focus, even the silent Secretary flared up and asked Shizu for clarifications.

Just like this, the matter of us sitting together was put at the back of their minds. Moreover, that topic became the sole focus of the whole meeting.

In one way or another, even though I hadn’t decided to take it seriously, I helped Shizu deflect their doubts and answer their questions.

And at one point in time, the tea that I left to boil when Shizu dragged me with her whistled.

Ignoring the glare of Inugaki, I served all of us tea before continuing.

Once the meeting was done, Shizu and I left the Student Council Room, partly escaping from more questions and partly just a way for us to get a change of scenery.

As for our destination, it’s that abandoned clubhouse of the Gardening Club located at the northwestern part of the school grounds. The one Nami and I discovered.

Shizu wanted to inspect it and if she didn’t find any problem, she’d possibly grant our request to use that for ourselves.
