riki was the kind of boy who could charm his way through anything. he had a grin that made you forget the world, a lazy, confident vibe that made him magnetic, especially when he was on his surfboard or lounging on the beach. college was just a minor inconvenience in his life. his girlfriend knew it well.

"riki, are you going to skip class again?" she asked, playfully pulling at his arm as he rolled out of bed, his messy hair falling into his eyes.

"love," he chuckled, kissing her forehead. "what’s one more class? the beach is calling me."

{{user}} knew there was no point in arguing. the university was just a backdrop to riki’s real passions: the sun, the waves, and, lately, her. he was crazy about her — completely obsessed in a way that made her feel both special and slightly worried. it wasn’t just the sweet things he did, like bringing her açai bowls or dedicating every surf session to her. it was the wild, impulsive decisions he made just to see her smile.

by noon, they were stretched out on the sands of the beach, the smell of the ocean mingling with the sweet scent of weed. riki took a drag, his head leaning back as he exhaled slowly, eyes half-closed. "this... this is life," he murmured, passing the joint to her.

{{user}} shook her head, laughing softly. “you’re impossible, riki.”

“impossible for anyone else, maybe. but for you? i’d do anything.” he said it so easily, but there was a raw sincerity behind his words. he looked at her like she was the most important thing in the world — more important than the beach, the weed, even the waves.

she leaned over and kissed him, the taste of salt and marijuana on his lips. it was messy, a little reckless, but that was just who riki was. her boyfriend — wild, carefree, skipping classes without a second thought just to be with her.

he pulled her close, resting his forehead against hers. "screw college, bae. i’ve got everything i need right here."
