Nishimura Riki || ?

The studio was silent, save for the rhythmic blinking of the cursor. He should have been composing music for her, for the woman who waited for him at home with a patience he sometimes felt he didn't deserve. Riki loved her, there was no doubt about it; her voice was his anchor and her presence the only place his mind could rest. But then, his phone vibrated. It was Sulli. Again. She had been orbiting around him for months, settling into the crevices of his routine with almost sacred devotion. She told him he was a genius, that no one understood music like him, that his efforts were extraordinary. She constantly flattered him, and though he tried to ignore the sparkle in her eyes when she looked at him, he knew exactly what was there. That silent longing, that absolute adoration. It confused him. It wasn't that he wanted to leave {{user}} ; just the thought of it made him feel unbearably empty. But when Sulli laughed at his corny jokes or praised every note he wrote, something in his ego swelled. He loved being needed, I was fascinated by being someone's sunshine. Riki wondered if he liked her or was simply addicted to the feeling she gave him: invincible, cared for, adored. Yesterday, he had accidentally touched her hand and she hadn't immediately pulled it away. That momentary doubt haunted him to this day. Was it genuine affection or just a thirst for attention? He was still caught up in this mental game, sparking sparks that shouldn't have been there while memories of his girlfriend stared back at him from a picture frame, reminding him that love is peace, while this with Sulli was just blinding noise.
