I didn't know how to react. My head was spinning with a ton of emotions on the side. A ton of emotions that were basically in this big pile of... Poop. No, that's just gross. My emotions were just a mountain of emotions that were right behind a neighborhood of emotions. I don't know how to describe it, okay?
I guess I should just call it butterflies in my stomach. Yeah, that makes more sense.
It's what any other girl would be feeling if they just got kissed,right? But, I mean, this was Kaneki!! My freaking childhood friend!

"(Y/N), are you okay?" Kaneki asked. I guess it was alright for him to ask that because my face was probably as red as a freaking tomato. I wanted to kiss Kaneki back, but I'm afraid I've waited too long. So I grabbed his hand and pulled him close to me. The air suddenly got warmer, just like the last time we kissed. But this time, the kiss meant something. To the both of us.

"Kaneki, I've liked you.. for a really long time now. And I'm really, really glad that you kissed me." Kaneki smiled.

"I've liked you for a really long time too, (Y/N). And I'm super duper glad that I made the choice to kiss you." And with that, he kissed me again. But this time, I kissed him back. I couldn't loose my chance.

What did this mean, though? Does it mean that we're together? I guess I've found the answer to the question that Kaneki asked ten years ago. What does it mean? It means that I love you, Kaneki.
