That XX {Kaneki x Reader x Haise}

A/N: this was inspired by Gdragon's That XX. In this story, Kaneki & Haise are two different persons and both are HUMANS. 

Also, I've actually started writing this last week but I stopped because I needed to study for my exams ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

As always, Hanako is my OC. I always have an OC just because it feels weird to put [f/n] and stuff like that, well to me, at least.

So here you go, enough blabbing, enjoy! And, do listen to it while reading this ~

Walking on the street, I bumped into your man (Yeah I saw him)
I didn’t want to believe it, but my hunch turned out right (I told you)
He’s not wearing that ring you gave him, there’s another girl by his side

It was 3 in the afternoon.

After staying at the CCG building for hours in preparation for the step we’re taking to advance in our newest case, I decided to take a bit of a break and drink some coffee on my favorite café. It was located just near the building so I immediately went and ventured towards it.

As I was walking towards my destination, my mind wind backs to a memory which lead me to favor the café.

It was when I received my very first case as a Rank 3 Investigator.

It was nerve wracking. And how the people often described me didn’t help, one bit. I would often hear them murmur how everything’s going to go swell, how easy it would be because of my abilities. It only made me feel even more nervous, their high expectations placed more weight on my shoulders rather than lifting them up.

But at the same time, I kind of believed their words. With the squad I was under, namely Akira-san’s, there was no doubt that together, we were the powerhouse of the Investigators.

But still, my anxiety lingered and it didn’t help on the case. I was often spacing out, often thinking about the results instead of focusing on the process, and it affected my work heavily.

One day, I decided to finally put an end to it. But I didn’t know how. So, I ask one of my squadmates for a suggestion how to calm my nerves. “Coffee, they’re the solution for everything.” Was all he said to me.

I never really liked coffee. It’s not because of the taste, in fact, most coffee tastes were approved by my tongue. I just really preferred other beverages over it. Nothing personal.

And with my squadmates suggestion comes a cafe preference. He pointed me to a café just a short walk from the building. He referred to their coffees as ‘heavenly’ and ‘almost sinful for being too delicious’. But I’m pretty sure he’s just exaggerating because he was an avid coffee drinker.

I decided to trust his words and visited the café at my vacant time.

I ordered the ‘heavenly’ coffee he was referring me to. I took a sip and let the sweet aroma calm my nerves and linger the taste of the coffee on my tongue a little longer.

I gave out a satisfied sigh after. “It’s not as good as he told me..” The coffee really did taste good, but I was a bit disappointed when I didn’t see the gates of heaven like he told me.

I placed the coffee down neatly on the table and decided to order some sweets a long with it. I stood up immediately, only to bump with someone by accident.

“Oof!” The person yelps as she fell down, right on her bottom.

I scurried towards her fallen figure and offers my hand, “I-I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to—“ “It’s alright, it’s alright. It’s also my fault for having a slow reflex.” She release a soft chuckle after, her hands reaches for mine and accepts it.
