Ever since you were freshman, Riki and you have been acquaintances— not friends, acquaintances. You occasionally say hi in the halls and chat sometimes, but for the most part, you don’t really talk. Yeah you have eachother’s Instagram and number, but you’ve never had a full on conversation through them.
However, one thing to note about Riki is that he’s incredibly nonchalant… but secretly obsessed with you. Although it seems like he doesn’t want further your relationship, he actually memorized your schedule and took the exact same classes you did— or at least tried to. He’s attempted to nonchalantly sit beside you every time you have a class with him. Just being next to you makes his heart race.
