Childhood - Ken Kaneki x Reader

This one shot is about Ken Kaneki from Tokyo Ghoul, which of course I didn't own. I hope you'll enjoy this.

What did suddenly happen? How did it even happen?

I always thought everuthing would be fine, forever. No matter what. Somehow ghouls would have been defeated and we would have lived a totally normal life.

Then he started acting differently, and after that he simply disappeared. I was so confused, I couldn't handle it that easily.

I started walking around to the places we used to go when we were kids. Just me, Hide and Ken. It was a perfect time.... I can't understand why I was always sad, maybe because my father was killed by ghouls? I didn't get that I still had my mother and my friends. Then I lost Ken. And in that moment I realized how important he had always been to me.

It was so dark, and I was so lost in my thoughts that my phone's ring scared me and I was about to yell.

-Are you okay!? (Y/n)??- It was my mother.

-Yes, I'm alright- I sighed -I just spent a little more time in the university-

That university, the same as Hide and Ken. We really thought that the three of us would be together forever.

As if.

-Please come home. I'm worried- I could hear her crying.

-I'll be there in five minutes- I always felt guilty when she cried. It had always been dad the one who whiped away her tears, when he was gone it was my job to do so. I closed the call and put the phone in my pocket, then I ran towards my houseb away from that parl for kids and for my old deat memories. Even if stood there for almost an hour I didn't notice that someone was watching me.

-(y/n) you don't know how much I'd like to talk to you right now- I heard this male voice from behind me, and I ricognizioned it.

-Ken....?- I stopped and slowly turned but I got no response, plus I could see none hiding behind the trees -It can't be.... - I said looking down laughing at myself -I'm just a fool-

-No, you're not- This time I was sure I heard his voice, but sill, I couldn't see him anywhere.

-Kaneki Ken, where the hell are you!?- I yelled with all the air I had in my lungs, between an angry and a desperate mood.

-I don't want you to see me, and I'm sure that if you knew you wouldn't either- His voice was calm, as it always had been, but there was also something different...

-Who the fuck cares!?- I had never talked like that, not to him -I want to see you now, I've been waiting for this moment for just too much! Get out of wherever you are! Show yourself-

-No, I'm afraid of what could be your reaction- His voice changed a bit more.

-Since when have you become such a coward? You've never been before!- At this he didn't answer -If you don't want to get out then I'm going to come there and find you!-

-I'm not afraid of you. I know you're not going to do it- I find where his voice was coming from. I decided exactly what I was going to do and I wouldn't change my mind no matter what.

-Then you don't know me that well!- I started running in that direction. I saw him hiding behind a tree, when he saw me as well he tried to ran away but I stopped him and I kissed him.

It may sound sudden. But after all I knew that if I wouldn't tell him my feelings in that moment, I wouldn't ever again.

It felt strange. It was my first kiss, I really didn't know what to expect, but when after a while he kissed me back I felt the taste of blood, and I was almost sure that wasn't normal. Even if that surprised me we both got lost in that kiss.

When we parted away for air I looked at him, his hair were white and his eyes where totally different. They expressed pure sadness, guilty and regret.

I wasn't scared at all, he was the Kaneki Ken I've always knownb plus I knew that if I would show fear he would be even more sad.

-I love you, stupid.... No matter what...-

-Tour father was killed by ghouls, now I'm a ghoul too, you can't- I couldn't stop my self at those words he said.

-I know!-I yelled at him -I know....- I then whispered again -There's no need for you to tell me this. You've always been important to me, ever since we were kids. It doesn't matter if you're ghoul or human, you're living being able to think with logic. That's what humans and ghouls have in common, and what makes them different from mare animals-

I was staring at him but suddenly found myself staring at the wood of the tree.

-This can't happen.... Not now....- He was at my side now -But I promise I'll be back. Until thay day, don't look for me or anything, I won't break this promise. When that day will comw we'll be able to be together. I've always loved you too- And after those words he disappeared .... Again....

But that time I had a smile on my face. I trusted him, I was sure that it wasn't the last time we met.
