WHO: Ritsuka (
be_loveless) and pedobear!Soubi (
malaisetrap)
WHAT: They're meeting to have lunch.
WHERE: Soubi's (/Ritsuka's too) apartment
WHEN: Day 70, just before noon
(
The music from the apartment drifted like the scent of baking bread: up, down, it permeated the air in the apartment complex. )
So it was that he arrived at the front door of the apartment seconds before noon. He pressed the buzzer, then stepped back and waited for an answer. His tail flicked anxiously and though there was a nervous twist in his stomach he waited eagerly for the response.
The room Soubi had spoken about sounded wonderful, however, Ritsuka was still uncomfortable with the way Soubi made his money. Just another thing Ritsuka just couldn't understand and it was embarrassing to even think about. So, he did his best to put the thought aside.

"Good morning, Ritsuka. How are you today?"
His voice was warm and light, rather like the steam rising from the coffee sitting on the meager dining room table. It was low, in the Japanese style, and beauty if not a little rough around the edges.
And the apartment was ...clean. All shining wood floors now and bright sparkling windows.

"I'm fine," his tail swished and he sneaked a look towards the hall way before turning his attention back to Soubi, "You're not wearing yourself out doing all this, are you?"
Still, he couldn't help but admire how nice the apartment looked now, which only made him even more eager to see the room Soubi had created for him. There was a part of him that was uncomfortable with the fact that this near-stranger planned a room for him already, but he was trying not to think about it.

"Would you like to see the room that I've been working on?"
He didn't acknowledge Ritsuka's question, because while he was a little tired, it was the best kind of tired: the feeling of accomplishment and knowing that he was a little closer to having Ritsuka by his side. Always.

"Yes! Can we?" he asked, his ears perking up again as he tilted his head to look up at Soubi. Ritsuka attempted to mask his excitement, but his twitching tail gave him away.
