The next day, I walked into the classroom. She was there already, reading her book. I silently walked in and sat next to her looking down at my hands, "Good morning Kaneki." (Name) stared and smiled at me with warmth.

She really is the only one that talks to me in this class, "Good morning (Name)!" I tried putting on my best smile. She laughed a bit behind her hand.

"You're so cute." At this I blushed a bit and looked away, "Oh, by the way, are you doing anything tomorrow?" She really could be my blind date tomorrow!

I hesitated before answering, "I'm meeting someone tomorrow." (Name)'s face lit up.

She took out a piece of paper and wrote her number on it. Handing it to me, she said, "Awesome, I am too! Text me tomorrow and we can talk about it alright?" I nervously took the number and gulped, "An orange-head came up to me yesterday. We talked a bit and he asked if I wanted to hang out with someone on Saturday around 7pm."

"Really? That must be really exciting." Yes! It has to be her! Orange-haired? Isn't that Hide?

I got super excited as sensei began the lesson, Throughout the class, I kept unconsciously glancing over at her. She wore glasses as she wrote down whatever sensei was writing on the board. So focused, her handwriting was neat and pretty. Everytime she looked over at me, I quickly looked away startled.

"So how will I know it's her?" Hide had his hands behind his head as we walked back home.

"Um well….you can just tell. I'll tell you that she wears glasses sometimes and that she's very feminine." This got me thinking and wondering. (Name) did wear glasses during class and she seems feminine, plus she did say an orange-haired boy came up to her, "Kaneki~ I also got myself a date around the same time as you tomorrow. We're going to the park so I could show her around. I'll send you a pic!" Hide turned to go the other way and we parted.

I couldn't sleep that night. I was too anxious of what would happen on our date. Before I knew it, that Saturday turned out to be a day, my world flipped upside down.

Arriving at Dotombori's a bit late, I went to the cashier and asked for the table reservation for 2 at 7:00pm. He lead me to the table, but what I saw was unexpected. Her hair was purple, she wore glasses and a white dress. I saw that she was reading a book by Takatsuki Sen, the one (Name) and I read as well, 'The Black Goat's Egg'. The lady looked at me and smiled almost as warmly as (Name), "You must be my date, I'm Kamashiro Rize."

I sat down across from her. She was really attractive as well, "My name is Kaneki Ken-" My phone vibrated. I took it out and saw that Hide sent me a picture message...I opened it and my breath stopped when I saw the picture. It was a picture of him and (Name) at the park.

Rize tilted her head a bit and lifted an eyebrow, "Is something wrong, Kaneki-kun I also heard that you read Takatsuki Sen's books too."

Hide's message,' This is (Name). She's in my Math class. She also transferred from Odaiba so I wanted to show her around.' I sighed and put my phone in my pocket," Sorry, and nothing's wrong."

Throughout the date, I couldn't get my mind off the fact that Hide was out with (Name). Kamashiro-san was nice and all, but she reminded me too much of her….they're both so alike. (Name) seems more...I don't know what it is, but she gives me a feeling deep down inside. Weird thing was; Kamashiro-san barely even touched her food….

Afterwards, we were about to go our separate ways. Though recently, I've been hearing about ghoul attacks going around the city. I decided to walk Kamashiro-san home. We got close to her place, "Thank you for walking me home, Kaneki-kun. I really was frightened to go home because of the ghouls lurking around. With you, I felt much safer."

I nevously scratched the back of my head, "It was no problem. I'm just glad that you're safe." She giggled and came closer to me. Next thing I knew, she was hugging me. I froze startled.

She brought her lips close to my ear and whispered, "I really like you, Kaneki-kun~." At this, I didn't know what to say or do. Then time slowed in my mind. A sharp pain was suddenly in my shoulder.

"W-WHAT?!" I pushed Rize awat and grasped at my shoulder, which was bleeding. She toook a bite out of me.

"Wow! You are sooooo tasty! Maybe I should go for your arm next!" Terrified, I started to run for my life. She was a ghoul! That sure explained a lot...Something grabbed my leg and pulled me, "Aha! I caught you Kaneki-kun!~ Shall I stir up your insides?" She grinned at me as she whipped me. I flew into a wall. The pain was too much. Could this be my last?

"AAAAAAAAAH!" She pierced through my stomach. Am I not going to see the smile of (Name) anymore?

I wish I could say my goodbyes to Hide…., "Oh? Are you dying already?" I was starting to faint.

Last thing I remembered, was Kamashiro-san getting crushed by a bunch of building equipment.
