Sorry it took so long...i've had a hard time IRL.

Chaotic's Note.

Kaneki let Noire enter the bedroom, locking the door, crouching down and leaning against the door, holding his stomach with one hand still.

''What do you mean Ghouls nourishment?'' Noire asked, taking a seat on the bed inside the room.

Kaneki slowly moved his head downwards so Noire would be unable to see his eyes or expression, but she noticed tears falling from his face and onto his arm around his stomach.

''W-we ghouls can't eat normal food...we have a very...dark appetite'' Kaneki explained in a near whisper.

''Then what DO you eat?'' Noire asked, slightly nervous at what answer he would give, but couldn't go back now, she wanted to help Kaneki.

Kaneki looked up at Noire with tears welling in his eyes, even his one ghoul eye was tearing up.

''Humans'' Kaneki answered, taking his other arm up and covering his eyes, he couldn't look at Noire anymore.

Noire jumped in a set, and stumbled away abit ''H-humans?'' Noire was so surprised at the answer she didn't know what to say.

''Because of how we ghouls are, our taste buds works differently than normal humans...even if we try to eat something normal like cake, we'd just end up vomiting it up, i'm so so sorry Noire...i didn't want anyone to know this, i've lost everything, precisely because i was a ghoul, i didn't want to loose you two Noire'' Kaneki explained while crying, he took his other arm up covering his eyes again, he couldn't look at Noire.

Noire swallowed her spit, she knew Kaneki was special but this was abnormal...she wanted to just run away, but at the same time Kaneki mentioned he didn't want to loose her aswell, which made her somewhat happy inside.

''You idiot...It it was something like this why didn't you just say so?'' Noire whispered to herself.

Noire took slowly steps towards Kaneki, as she stood right infront of him, she raised her hand up high.

SLAP!

Kaneki was looking to his side in disbelief, why was his cheek red? and why did it hurt?

He slowly looked up at Noire, and his eyes widened, she was crying aswell.

''If it was something so trivial, why didn't you say it immediately?'' Noire crouched down, to meet Kaneki's eye level.

While Noire cried, she went close to Kaneki, wrapping her arms around him, embracing him, hugging him.

''You idiot...and i was so worried about you Kaneki, please never scare me like that again'' Noire noticed right next to her Kaneki's hair was shifting colors...between white and black, what did this mean?

Noire leaned back staring at Kaneki with a smile and teary eyes, she rolled up her arm's clothing exposing the pale white skin.

Kaneki knew what she meant by this, and his body was just about to jump on her on his own, but he restrained himself.

His hair stopped shifting colors it went back to normal, his white hair.

''I...i won't eat you Noire'' he slowly helped himself back to his feet, and staggered over to Noire, he leaned down, holding her head with both his hands, Kaneki smiling brightly with tears, and Noire just stared at him with the same teary eyes, he gave her a small kiss on the cheek, before standing up again and walking towards the window on the far end wall.

''K-kaneki?'' Noire asked while holding her cheek with one hand, and began slowly blushing.

Kaneki opened the window, and sat on the ledge.

''Noire, do you know where the nearest cemetery is'' Kaneki asked, the question felt dark for him to ask, but he didn't want to eat Noire, rather someone with their life already gone.

Noire rubbed her eyes, which now was abit red from the crying ''Y-yeah, it's northeast from here, if you run directly then you'll find it but...'' Noire stopped mid-sentence, she didn't know if asking about eating dead people would be respectless so she stopped herself.

Kaneki somewhat caught onto this and answered with ''I promise you Noire...before i eat anyone i will give them a small prayer, and respect them'' he looked back at Noire, with a small smile.

Momentarily they just stared at each other until Kaneki broke the silence with a small giggle.

''You really are cute Noire, it's amazing''

Noire looked away from him while blushing much now ''W-what are you saying so suddenly...you idiot'' Noire was happy at the words.

''Hey Kaneki...come back in one piece alright?'' she asked while still looking away from him.

''Ever since i accepted my ghoul side i've had a hard time noticing my feelings Noire, now i know for sure i'm happy, i'll be back'' Kaneki answered jumping out the window, and making his kagune appear, using it to bounce him off the building wall, and land ontop of a nearby roof.

Noire could hear his steps of running outside, until they became distant, she used some of the bedsheets to rub the signs of her crying away, she had a image to uphold, so she didn't want Chian or Compa to notice her like this.

She walked over to the opened window, leaned on it, and stared at the full moon that was glowing so brightly.

''Kaneki...Ken, the ghoul...'' Noire muttered to herself, becoming embarrassed that she began to feel warm inside when she said those words, she continued to stare at the moon.

Kaneki jumped from rooftop to rooftop, using his kagune to maneuver himself around obstacles, because of his hunger he now couldn't retract the kagune, and was rushing towards the direction the cemetery would be.

''Hey Kaneki...come back in one piece alright?'' Kaneki thought of Noire's words and felt happy at them, yet he couldn't understand why a small part of him began feeling warm and fuzzy, he shook off the feeling quickly focusing on getting to the cemetery.

- 9 Minutes later -

Kaneki landed on a small bell tower, and observed the view, he had found the cemetery and with it's white fog and countless tombstones, it would be rather creepy for a normal person but Kaneki was unfazed.

''Time to repeat my previous sins'' Kaneki whispered to himself, before taking his mask on, and jumping down towards the cemetery.

I know this was a rather small chapter, but i wanted to let people know i'm not dead, and this is NOT abandoned.

Let's do this, Chaotic's Note ~
