Hello everyone! Sorry it took a while but here it is! So far this is the longest chapter I've written and I plan to make them longer because you guys are so sweet! I can't even explain the feeling I get when I read your amazing reviews. You guys are literally what keeps me going. I love all of my fans seriously thank you guys soooo much. I really didn't think my first story would do this great. Anyway, I'll stop talking now. Please enjoy.
Tokyo Ghoul belongs to a genius named Ishida Sui.
That night Kaneki dreamt something...weird.
He could've sworn it was real. Him and Touka were back to the time where she asked him to unbutton her wedding dress. When he got to the point where her back was bare in front of him, he ran his fingers over her back like how he did before.
But this time, he didn't pull back. He put his hands all over her back exploring all the parts of her soft skin he could.
"K-Kaneki..." Touka protested, but this time, he didn't stop.
He put both his hands on her skin, feeling her back, her shoulders, her neck, her arms, and her hands. All the while Touka was shivering under his touch, feeling impossibly hot. Kaneki was in sort of a daze when he felt her smooth skin. He had never done anything close to this in his lifetime. His eyes became hooded and he brought his head closer to her back.
"Touka-chan..."
He whispered her name and brought his lips closer to her skin.
"I...want..."
Suddenly Kaneki was staring at a sunlit ceiling.
What?
What happened?
Where am I?
Oh right, I'm at home. I fell asleep while waiting for Touka in the shower
...So that was just a dream...
Kaneki let out a soft sigh but then quickly caught himself.
Wait wait wait... Am I disappointed?
No way no way. I could never do something like that to Touka-chan.
Kaneki's chin suddenly felt the need to be touched.
She would probably kill me anyway...
Where is she anyway?
His internal question was answered when he turned to his side and saw his beautiful wife sleeping right next to him.
"Wh-"
Kaneki quickly silenced himself. He hadn't expected Touka to be so close to him. They had never slept in the same bed before so he was definitely surprised.
So Touka-chan decided to sleep next to me...Oh...
Kaneki couldn't quite describe the happy feeling he felt at that moment. A blush slowly started creeping up to his cheeks.
How nice...
Kaneki took this chance to stare at his sleeping wife. He had never got to see her sleeping face so clearly. He took in every single one of her non-scowling features.
"She really is beautiful..."
Her eyelashes were long and slightly curled, her nose was small and a little pointy, and her lips were full and pink. He took her appearance in as much as he could. When she moved a little, Kaneki could not help but chuckle.
Touka-chan is so cute. She doesn't even know it. It's weird how she can be so scary at the same time too though...
I want to see more of this side...and see all the cute faces she can make...I want to see her flustered and embarrassed and shy...I just want to see every part of her...
Kaneki's eyes started to wander unconsciously. Touka's shirt had a low neckline so part of her shoulder and a small part of her cleavage was showing. Kaneki found himself staring at Touka's long neck and her chest. Her soft white skin unknowingly tempted Kaneki.
She looks really delicious... I don't want to eat her though...Strange... I must be sick or something...
During these thoughts Kaneki unconsciously brought his lips closer to her neck. His soft breathing on her neck woke Touka out of her slumber.
Under her eyelids Touka could see that the room was bright which meant it was morning. She could feel Kaneki's body heat so she assumed he was still sleeping.
I'll just wait until he gets up before I move.
She decided she would take another nap until she felt something on her neck.
What... What is that?
It feels like air...
Oh, stupid Kaneki must have moved in his sleep and is breathing on me.
Touka was about to proceed to her nap until she felt another sensation.
What the hell?
... Are those fucking lips!?
She could feel the heat rising to her cheeks. Her eyes shot open and she stared confused at her husband who was indeed awake and whose lips were indeed resting on her neck. She looked up at her husband in disbelief. Her face was definitely red now. His eyes looked like he was daydreaming
"U-um... Kaneki?"
Suddenly, the light came back to his eyes.
"Huh?...Oh...OH! Touka-chan good morning! Did you sleep well? That's great! Well I'm gonna go freshen up now!"
Kaneki was practically talking at the speed of light and was in the bedroom before Touka had any time to react.
That was...
Wait a minute what the hell was that?
He can't just do something that fucks my heart rate up and run away like that! Dammit! I can't take this anymore! My heart has a mind of its fucking own...
I mean... My heart has beaten faster whenever he would hold my hand or tell me mushy shit... But this... This is on a whole new level...
His lips were right there!
Touka blushed furiously as she smashed her face into a pillow. Her hand touched the spot on her neck where Kaneki's lips kissed. The heat that rose to her face was overwhelming and her eyes started to water. .
...I...didn't hate it...
She let out an unTouka-like squeal as she tried to purge the weird thought she just had from her mind. I'm fine... right?
The raven-haired ghoul sighed as her eyes wandered to the bathroom where her husband was.
What's he thinking? Does it affect the idiot like it does me? Ugh I'm so confused...
Meanwhile in the lovely bathroom of the two ghouls, Kaneki Ken was losing his mind. How he didn't realize what he was doing, he had no idea.
What was I thinking? How could I let myself succumb to my...
What was the word?
... Desires?
... Is that what I was feeling? I wanted to put my lips on Touka's neck?
I guess I did
She just looked so...so...so
...pretty?
... No, that's not the word I'm looking for
... Beautiful?
... No.
Not that Touka isn't any of those things, but what I thought Touka looked like at that moment was
...Delicious?
...a little closer
... At that moment, I thought Touka-chan looked really...really
...Sexy
. . . . . . . .
Wait...what?
What the heck am I thinking!? I'm talking like some kind of pervert! Oh God what am I turning into? Was I always like this? Looking at Touka-chan with those kind of eyes? But the worst part is, I didn't even notice! All I wanted was... My lips...on her skin...Why why why did I do that? She probably thinks I'm disgusting.
Dammit, I think I'm disgusting!
How am I supposed to face her? I really didn't mean to do it I just... I couldn't control myself. Sorry Touka-chan...
Kaneki had a very distressed look on his face. Never in his life had he been in a situation like this. He tried his best to calm down.
I guess I'll just have to keep my distance from Touka-chan...
His thoughts wandered back to how soft and sweet Touka's neck felt under his lips, and how he wished he could kiss her mo-
"Shower! I need to take a shower!" He yelled.
The water was really soothing, but no matter how cool he turned the water, the heat wouldn't subside...
When Kaneki walked out of the bathroom, he didn't see his wife.
"Touka-chan?"
"In here." He heard a feminine voice call from the bedroom.
As he walked toward the bedroom, he felt his heartbeat speed up as he remembered the earlier incident.
What sort of face will she make?
He walked in and saw Touka sitting on the floor sorting through all the gifts and cards they received from the wedding. She took a glance at her husband and then quickly looked back to the gifts. Her face was now slightly red.
"We received a lot of gifts from the wedding." She said quietly.
"Yeah, I see that we did." Kaneki replied with an awkward laugh.
"Hinami sent you a lot of books. She was really happy for us."
"Did she really? I'll have to thank her later."
Silence...
More silence...
"U-um Touka-chan? About this morning..."
His face was quite red and he could feel his speech abilities dwindling.
"P-please forget it happened!" He practically yelled.
Touka was surprised by her husband's outburst.
" I-I don't know what came over me. I guess I was still asleep, but that's still not a good excuse. I'm very sorry! It won't happen again." Kaneki said as he bowed in apology.
As Kaneki's head was lowered, Touka thought about what he said. There was a pain in her chest that she couldn't quite describe.
And it really hurt.
So he really hated it that much huh? Then why the fuck did he do it!? Why the fuck did he get my hopes up like that!? He even said he wanted to do those kinds of things with me in the taxi last night.
So why? Dammit!
"So I should just forget it?" Touka asked in a bitter voice.
Kaneki raised his head and was surprised to see his wife with a pained face.
"Touka-chan?"
"Fine. I'll do just that." Touka said angrily as she got up and left the bedroom shoving past Kaneki. As she was leaving she turned around one more time
"YOU FUCKING IDIOT!"
She then went to the bathroom and locked the door behind her.
Kaneki's eyes were wide open in confusion.
"I apologized...didn't I?"
He was utterly dismayed.
How did this happen? I only wanted to make things better, and now things are worse? She completely hates me now! But I apologized! What should I do? We just got married too!
I...need to fix this.
Since Touka-chan probably won't talk to me now I should get another girl's opinion before I approach her. Ah! I could go see Hinami-chan! I have to thank her for all those books anyway.
Kaneki was determined to see this through. He got ready, throwing on a pair of jeans and a shirt with a v-neck sweater to top it off. He walked to the bathroom door with his wife still inside.
"Um Touka-chan? I'm going to stop by Hinami-chan's place to thank her for the books and stuff. I'll be back soon... I'm really sorry." He tried pleading again but there was no answer.
"Well then, I'm off... I love you."
The half ghoul then turned to the front door and left the apartment.
When Touka who was inside the bathroom leaning against the counter heard him walk away, she sighed. She waited a few more minutes before emerging from the bathroom. She went back to the bedroom and flopped on the bed.
He even said 'I love you' too.
I shouldn't be that mad at him. But why the hell did he say that? Does he hate touching me like that? He even got my hopes up too... Well, knowing him, he probably doesn't think he did anything wrong.
...I'll try talking to him when he gets home.
She let out a deep sigh as she stared into the white of the ceiling.
'Please forget it happened!...It won't happen again.'
Those words kept repeating over and over in her mind. Her hand found its way to her chest and a pained expression took over her face.
"It really hurt, Ken..."
Oh no! Misunderstandings everywhere! So much sexual tension! Will Kaneki and Touka be able to be honest with each other? If you haven't figured it out already, Kaneki and Touka will be depicted as very innocent when it comes to sexual activity in this fic because that's just how I pictured them to be. By the way, if this situation seems shoujo-ish it's probably because I read a hell of a lot of shoujo manga... Thanks for reading and I really enjoy all your reviews.
Love to all :3
