Sorry for the wait everyone! But I have the next chapter now! :D I also want to apologize for how short this chapter is, but I promise the next one will be longer.
Also thank you for the overwhelming amount of reviews! It really encourages me and I'll make sure to reply to all of them at the end of the chapter. :)
P.S. Did you guys know that Kaneki's nails are black because of how many times Jason cut off his fingers and toes? I just found that out about two weeks ago and I am appalled. My poor baby. :(
P.S.S. You all should really look up "Murder! Original Rap w/Boyinaband, Minx & Chilled" I really like listening to it when I'm writing this story..
Kaneki's entered the house with a sigh. The reason he had to bring his own uniform was because there weren't any available, Yoshimura had everyone he practically knew working today, the place was packed and Kaneki was dead tired. He didn't even have time to change out his uniform if he wanted to make it home in time for dinner.
He grunted at the thought but took a deep breath and entered the dining room. "Oh, Kaneki! I'm glad you made it in time." Sachiko smiled. He nodded at her and loosened his tie.
"It was pretty packed today so I thought I was going to be late but I just made it." He said with a small smile and sat down next to her with Light right across from him.
"Wow, I've never seen you in uniform Kaneki, you look pretty professional." Sayu said with a smile.
"Thanks." Kaneki said lightly then looked down at his food and had to repress a gag. He didn't even feel like being awake much less actually trying to pretend he was enjoying his food today. But he steeled himself and took the first bite.
"Hey, it's a new bulletin" Sayu said while looking at the tv. It read 'Interpol to send total of 1,500 detectives from various countries to Japan to help solve Kira case.'
"1,500 detective, wow" Sayu said excitedly.
'That doesn't make any sense' Kaneki zoned out for a moment but was brought back to reality when Light spoke. "Interpol is so stupid"
"What?" Sayu exclaimed.
"What's the point, if they announce it like this? If they're going to send in all those detectives, they should keep quiet about it and let them work in secret. Those FBI agents were here on a top secret mission, and look what still happened to them. If Kira knows about these guys, he's going to get them to, for sure." He explained.
"Oh, yeah! You're right, smart as ever, Light." Sayu said as she understood everything he meant.
"That's why I bet it isn't even true. This is just a ruse to put pressure on Kira." Light lifted a piece of rice to his mouth and continued. "But it's pretty obvious, so I bet Kira's figured that out, too."
Kaneki stared for awhile, then looked away and continued eating. 'He's right, they would never risk putting something out like that.' He thought and swallowed some more food then pretended to chew lightly.
"Anything you want to add, Kaneki?" Sayu asked and looked at him expectantly.
"Huh?" Kaneki stopped chewing and looked at her confused while she rolled her eyes at him.
"Well you used to always add your opinion to things like this. You've been really out of it lately." She said with a sigh then looked at him in anticipation. "So…?"
Kaneki pretended to eat a little more than shrugged. "Not really, I mean I agree with Light but I don't have much to add." He took a sip of water and continued. "I just don't really care about Kira."
"You don't really care?!" Sayu exclaimed, almost yelling at him.
"Well yeah, I mean it's all people have been talking about lately, it gets tiring to hear about someone murdering criminals all the time when you have a lot already on your plate." He sighed. "I mean I'm worried about Dad, and I hope they catch him soon but that's all I can really say on the subject."
"I'm done" Light said as he got up and put his dishes in the sink.
"Already?!" Sayu exclaimed. After putting his dishes away he grabbed a bag of chips from the pantry. "No way, Light. You're eating potato chips right after dinner? You're gonna get fat, ya know."
"It's for later. I'm studying till late" he said without turning around and went up to his room.
Kaneki took another bite and was satisfied to see that almost all of his food was gone. "Oh that's right." Kaneki turned to Sachiko who looked back at him with a questioning look. "Did you have guest over today?"
"No? Why do you ask Kaneki?" She looked at him with a slightly worried expression and he shook his head. "Oh, never mind then, I just thought-." He stopped mid-sentence then shook his head. "Forget it." He took the last bite of his food. "I'm done." He sighed and stood.
"I'll be studying so please don't come in for the rest of the night." He announced before going to his room.
...
Once he entered his room he instantly locked the door and took off his tie, then his vest, and unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt before walking into his bathroom.
He sighed and took out a bottle of water and kneeled in front of the toilet with it before sticking two fingers down his throat and puking out most of the dinner he just had. The corners of his eyes stung with tears.
"Son of a bi-." He didn't get to finish speaking as another round of food came up, and another. He kept throwing up until he could taste the feeling of stomach acid on his throat.
"Ugh." He leaned back on the wall and took a sip of the water then wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and wiped the sweat from his face.
"That. Sucked." He breathed out raggedly with a cough, then stood up from where he was and stretched his back and neck until he heard a satisfying pop.
He took a sip of water while cracking his fingers agitatedly and walked back into his bedroom where he instantly laid on his bed and stared at the ceiling and started whispering to himself.
"Fuuuck." He sighed and turned on his side, clutching his stomach and holding onto it tightly. "I don't know how much more of this I can take." He smirked and closed his eyes. "But it's worth it" the words came out softly from his lips as he fell into a deep sleep.
...
Kaneki woke up startled by the sound of his cell phone ringing loudly. He turned over and looked at the screen and sighed when he saw the bright flashing name 'Trash Lord' on his phone.
He sat up and answered. "What do you want Tsukiyama?"
"Open up your balcony door Kaneki~"
Kaneki grunted into the phone. "No, I'm trying to sleep."
"Trying to sleep?!" he sounded shocked and almost offended at the thought.
"It's only nine o' clock!" Tsukiyama announced as he opened Kaneki's door anyways and Kaneki looked at him annoyed.
"Get out, I'm too tired for your shit right now Tsukiyama." Kaneki glared trying to look intimidating but seeing as though he just woke up the glare didn't have its usual effect.
Tsukiyama just laughed lightly and sat next to Kaneki on his bed, being the usual annoying uninvited guest he always was. "You know I don't want anyone to see you here, so please just leave." Kaneki insisted trying not to get to annoyed with the stupidly dressed man- it was an ugly green and orange sweater today.
"Don't be so rude Kaneki, I'm just here to give you information." Tsukiyama nonchalantly picked his nails waiting for Kaneki to tell him to continue.
"Is it so important that you have to tell me right now?" He emphasized the last part because he just wanted to sleep.
"It's about a new restaurant."
"Which can wait until tomorrow, right?"
"Yes, but I also have information on Ayato." Tsukiyama said smugly and didn't elaborate anymore. Kaneki always hated how he kept making him ask questions. 'Why can't he just tell me everything straight out' he thought then sighed.
"What kind of information? He's been missing for one week now hasn't he? But he's done this before so it's not really anything to worry about." Kaneki shrugged. "Well except for his grades, but I don't really think he cares."
Tsukiyama nodded. "He came home last night, or at least that's what Touka thinks." He leaned back onto Kaneki's bed and ignored the look he got as he continued. "Apparently some of his things are missing now."
"You think he's camping out somewhere?" Kaneki sighed. "I don't understand what that kid is doing."
"I guess he's just going through his rebellious phase." Tsukiyama chuckled. "Maybe you'll need to break the other half of his body this time." Tsukiyama was referring to the time that Ayato had broken the rules and killed a random person, they were able to clean up the situation pretty easily but as punishment Kaneki broke half the bones in his body. He usually wouldn't be that hard on other Ghouls but, it was Ayato.
Kaneki smirked and shrugged. "Maybe, but hopefully it won't have to come to that." He looked down at Tsukiyama who was making himself comfortable on his bed.
"So you have anything else you need to tell me?"
"Nope!"
"Good." Kaneki nodded. "Now get out."
"Don't be so rude, Kaneki! I'm your guest aren't I? You should treat me to a snack." He said with a smirk. By now he was taking up half of Kaneki's bed –good thing it was queen-sized- and snuggling into one of Kaneki's pillows.
He sniffed the pillow lightly. "Ah Kaneki's room smells great." Tsukiyama sighed happily while Kaneki was grossed out by the other mans antics.
So he decidedly kicked the other man off the bed. "Get the fuck out of my room." He growled while looking down at the man from where he was sprawled out on the floor.
"Ah geez, you're so mean, Kaneki" Tsukiyama said as he got up and started dusting himself off. "I'll see you tomorrow at Anteiku then?"
Kaneki gave an affirmative nod and locked the balcony door on Tsukiyama's way out so no one would annoy him for the rest of the night.
I'll make sure the next chapter is longer is swear! But this is all I really had the energy for, It's been a rough month. But enough of that! Time to reply to all of you lovely people! (:
The 14th Undertaker: *Thanksssss vibes*
Kirigiri Kyouko: Yeah, ghouls are very discrete and secretive in this story so they're actually able to hide their existence. And a meeting between Light and Shuu would be very interesting, you'll eventually see Ryuks' role in the story I guess? Well anyways thanks for the review! :)
