Anteiku. Home of the peacekeeping ghouls of Tokyo's 20th ward. Among them, Kirishima Touka, known for her icy cold demeanor. She had a reputation for being one of the more dangerous ghouls that resided within the little coffee shop, one that showed no fear or hesitation. Kirishima Touka was currently snuggled up to her bunny rabbit pillow, on her dark purple polka-dotted bed sheets, studying for her upcoming exams.
"Shit." She muttered to herself, gazing at her papers and textbooks. She had taken a few days off from school and work to look after Hinami, who was orphaned after the death of her mother.
No, murder. Touka clenched her pencil suddenly, remembering that day under the bridge. The dove had nearly proven too much for her to handle, and if not for Hinami she most likely could've ended up dead.
And Kaneki. Don't forget him, Touka thought to herself. She exhaled and buried her face into her pillow. Touka didn't know what to think of Kaneki now. At first she had thought him weak and pathetic, a human forced into a ghoul's world. How angry she had been! That little runt had come begging for help from Anteiku, and acted like they were all monsters!
But he had changed, and changed fast. Before long he had befriended most of her fellow coworkers and even Hinami. Touka knew their bond was getting stronger by the day. She watched him sometimes, bringing books and newspapers for Hinami to read amd marveled at how quickly he adapted to their lives, living in constant fear of being attacked by Doves.
Touka sighed deeply and flipped over onto her back, gazing at the ceiling. What did she think of Kaneki now? She smiled softly, and felt a blush creeping onto her face. That idiot actually Kaneki treated her like a girl! Although she never would never let anybody know it, Touka loved Kaneki's innocence and naïvety. She loved how he sat and read his novels and scratched his cheek when he was embarrassed. She loved how he always smiled at her and called her Touka-chan.
"Ugh. What am I thinking?" Touka spoke aloud, clearing her thoughts. Kaneki could wait. Her studies were more important. She sat up and moved her papers to her desk, now determined to get her work done.
"Enjoy your coffee!" Kaneki smiled at his customers, then straightened up and looked around. It was almost time to close shop, and Touka still hadn't come down.
He leaned against the counter top and rested his chin in the crook of his elbow comfortably. He missed Touka-chan, having not seen her for a full three days now. He recalled Yoshimura telling him about her studies.
"Touka is studying very hard," the manager had said when Kaneki inquired as to where Touka was. "She has had a lot of catching up to do. She started school a few years later than her classmates."
"Oh... I see." Kaneki couldn't have kept the disappointment out of his voice. He liked Touka. Even though she was fairly mean to him, Kaneki could tell there was more to Touka than she lets on. Not to mention, he did find her extremely attractive. Her dark blue hair and rough attitude actually seemed to draw him in instead of pushing him away. He liked her eyes most of all. They betrayed a beautiful personality hidden behind a sharp tongue.
"Hmm," Yoshimura had replied with a faint smile. The old ghoul didn't miss much, his sense of perception aided by years of experience. "Why don't you go up and pay her a visit? I'm sure she wouldn't mind your company. Touka probably needs someone to talk to, being shut in her room for so long. You could also tutor her, if you'd like." The manager gestured upstairs, and smiled a little wider at Kaneki. "Enji and Irimi can close today. Go on, her room is the second one on the left."
"A-are you sure? Enji and Irimi closed yesterday, I wouldn't want to-" Kaneki bit off his own reply. He did want to see Touka. "Okay. Thanks, Yoshimura-san!" Kaneki straightened up and started to head upstairs towars Touka's room.
"Fuck this." Touka swore quietly to herself. She pushed away the papers on her desk and lay her head down. Why couldn't she concentrate? She suddenly shivered, and her legs rubbed together subconsciously.
"Stupid Kaneki." Touka couldn't seem to get him out of her mind. Kaneki calling her Touka-chan, Kaneki smiling as he tousled her hair, Kaneki pulling her close and... and...
Touka felt her cheeks heat up. Okay, I need this, she told herself. She fell gently onto her mattress and shrugged off first her jeans, then striped black and white panties. Spreading her legs, she let a finger wander down before letting out a soft moan.
Reaching up, Touka softly grabbed her breast and fondled herself, enjoying the feeling of being touched. She fell into a steady tempo, fingering herself with one hand while the other groped her chest.
"Haaa... Aaahn.." Her moans became louder and more frequent. Overcome with lust, Touka gasped out. "Kaneki... Hnngh! More! Haaagnh!" She felt herself reaching her climax and threw her head back...
...Just in time to meet a beet-red Kaneki Ken in the eyes, who had just opened the door after knocking three times without an answer.
His eyes were wide open, and his mouth moved without sound. His blush had rapidly overtook his normal skin tone. Kaneki looked, and felt, like he wanted to lay down and die.
"I'm so sorry! I-I didn't know you... I knocked before, I swear! Sorry!" Kaneki stammered out, before finding his common sense and turning his back before shutting the door.
Touka was frozen in sheer embarrassment. Coming out of her stupor, she sat up abruptly and reached down for her clothes, blushing furiously. Why? Now, out of all possible times?!
"You idiot!" Touka scolded herself, thrn bit her lower lip softly. She faintly heard the shop door opening and closing, and turned to look out the window just in time to see Kaneki walk jerkily out into the street, hood up over his head.
Mortified, Touka collapsed onto her mattress. She drew her legs into herself and hugged them, and felt another blush coming up against her will. "Bakaneki. How am I supposed to look you in the eyes tomorrow?"
Touka buried her face in her knees deeper, and resolved to figure out what to do in the morning.
