After several months of moving into Faraday, between getting himself acquainted with his new job, and getting his Gym set up in the basement of the building, with both the League's and company's blessing, Rikiya could finally say he was settled into Faraday City. Of course, the University graduate wanted to do one thing, now that he had time to catch his breath, be with one person.
Andrea Benoit, his long time celebrity crush, now his girlfriend.
It had been months since they had time to spend together. Between brief moments together, the two didn't seem to have much time for each other, not only with him moving into the city, but with her new occupation as a Ranger.
But with both of them having made arrangements with their employer, the two finally had a day set aside to spend with each other.
And so, Rikiya, who was dressed rather nicely, in a blue polo shirt, a pair of beige slacks, and his boots, with the pant legs worn outward instead of tucked in for once, was putting on final preparations with his apartment. While not a slob by any means, he got his new apartment to look practically immaculate for this occasion.
The Gym Leader was also setting up his television, in order to hook it up to his streaming service of choice, just in case they wanted to watch a movie.
With his living space sorted out, and everything in place, Rikiya eagerly awaited the arrival of his girlfriend, somewhat nervous about spending the day with her after so long, but also yearning for it.

| How is it that I've fallen in love with you? How can it hurt this much? Never before have I ever wanted someone this much. If I say I miss you about a thousand times, will it reach you? If I try crying and fussing, will you know my feelings? |
● waiting, contemplating... Rikiya Oshiro / someone brought 2 extra-large boxes of hot, steamy pizza! / 264Due to Andrea’s change in career (and focus) things had gotten incredibly hectic for her.
Having to face down her father was the absolute last straw, but she’d managed to weather the insults, the ribbing, and everything else that came in-between (which of course included admitting that being a Coordinator was a mistake to Daniel’s fucking smug face, and she’d never live down that time when she had to say it in front of all their colleagues, smug asshole he was).
Either way, she’d finally managed to get a full day off from her duties, and had decided to spend it with Rikiya. While she had yet to tell her parents about her relationship with the recently-graduated Gym Leader, she knew that she’d have to face another round of the parent attack once she’d gotten settled more into her new job of being a Ranger; helping out wherever she was needed—but not now.
She just wanted to focus on spending the entire day with Rikiya, relaxing and unwinding and eating pizza like a pro.
After ordering two extra-large boxes of pizza—one being a four-cheese flavor, the other was basically a meat-eater’s paradise—she then hefted the two boxes into her left hand, managing to balance them as she dug out her phone and punched in a number, waiting while it rang, until the other person on the end answered it.
“Riki? Can you tell me again where your new place is? I have… several packages with me, I know you’ll like one of ‘em,” she began once the other party had answered.

As Rikiya eagerly awaited Andrea's arrival, he would hear his phone ring. The Gym Leader immediately grabbed it, seeing Andrea's name on the caller ID. Hurriedly, he swiped the green icon on the phone to answer it.
"Hey, Andie, what's up?", Rikiya asked softly.
The Gym Leader was curious as to what the package was, but he'd find out once she arrived. But now, the point was making sure she'd arrive just fine.
"I'm in Capacitor Apartments on Juniper Street. Room 4 on the fourth floor.", Rikiya told his girlfriend. "Thankfully, there's elevator access to tenants and their guests.", he would continue.
"Did you need directions?", the blue-haired man would ask her.

● waiting, contemplating... Rikiya Oshiro / dat apartment name, tho / 194She’d be lying to herself if she didn’t feel a surge of giddiness overtake her the moment she heard Riki’s voice over the line. Even if his voice sounded incredibly tinny, the important fact was that he’d answered the call, and that he was pretty much settled in.
Of course, the moment she heard the name of the apartment complex, she let out an actual snort of laughter over the line. “Did you choose the apartment complex simply because it reminds you of your line of work?” she managed to get out once she was done giggling, adjusting the boxes she held aloft in her other hand.
The scent of the two pizzas was starting to drive her crazy, but she nodded. “Well, I’m on the right street, I just need a landmark so I know I’ve found the place,” she said over the phone, walking ever so carefully because she didn’t want to send the pizza boxes flying out of her hold. She breathed a secret sigh of relief, because there was no way in hell she was climbing four flights of rickety stairs just to reach her boyfriend’s apartment.
No hella way.

Rikiya couldn't help but chuckle when Andrea made the remark about his apartment complex name reminding him of work. "Maybe~ That, and the fact that the rent isn't half bad around here may or may not have had a factor in my decision making...", Rikiya replied with a playful tone. In truth, the area he was in had a bit of a theme with electronics and electricity.
"Capacitor Apartments is right across the road from an electronics store with a big, waving Elekid sign in front of it. You can't miss it.", he would tell her.
Indeed, as he said, if she were to arrive close to said store, and look across the street, she'd see the sign for Capacitor Apartments on a large, black building.
"Oh, just tell the receptionist that you're here for me. I let them know you'd be seeing me in advance.", he would tell her quickly.

● waiting, contemplating... Rikiya Oshiro / a thousand apologies for the lateness / 217In no time flat she’d spotted the electronics store that he’d mentioned, and quickly looked across from the landmark. Sure enough, she’d spotted the sign that read “Capacitor Apartments” and looked both ways before quickly crossing the street—you never knew if someone would suddenly come barreling out from nowhere and try to run you over.
Thankfully she’d made it across without too much trouble, and eventually made her way through the front door and eventually met the receptionist, who promptly gawked at such a scrawny young lady balancing two boxes of extra-large pizza in one hand like it was almost nothing.
“Yeah… I’m here to see Rikiya Oshiro, he said I’d be coming by today,” she said by way of greeting, before quickly being shown the (mercifully) small elevator that served the establishment. Nodding in thanks, she then made headway to it, before sliding in and punching in the button for the fourth floor.
One short elevator ride later…
She then got out on the fourth floor and started counting doors, before eventually coming to a stop on the fourth door. shifting her balance around slightly, she then raised her free hand and knocked exactly three times, waiting for Rikiya to answer the door… and possibly help her because holy shit, these pizzas were actually heavy!

When Rikiya heard the knocks on the door, the Gym Leader immediately sprang up from the couch, and rushed towards the door. The Gym Leader would undo the locks on the door, before opening it to see Andrea carrying to boxes of pizza. He would usher her inside and quickly offer to take the pizzas off her hands. Wasting no time, the Gym Leader set the boxes on the coffee table, before offering his girlfriend a warm embrace.
"So, now that you're here, what did you want to do?", he would ask her with a smile.
If she wanted to play a video game, or watch a movie with him, she'd find that the entertainment center in front of the TV would provide them several options. Two shelves would practically flank the thing, one being made up of several films, while the other of video games, all of them organized alphabetically, with the video games being arranged by their platform as well.
