((Kaneki x Reader)) Broken Down

Family

I finally got back from a short trip with Kaneki and Yomo. Yomo showed me how he got food and it was depressing. Suicidal victims were used as food. I didn't like how people would end there lives. The thought of someone killing there self is sad. To die alone. It's not okay. Think of your loved ones? Waking up every morning expecting to see you, but all they can look at is your picture. Something that no one wants.

I sigh and rest my head on my hand. There is always someone who loves you. I think to my mom. I have 54 missed calls from her. She's really worried. She must have been told that father was murdered and I was with him. She probably thinks I'm also dead.

I stare at my phone and finally pick it up. I hit call and before the first ring had sounded, she picked up.

"(Y/N)?" I heard my mother whisper. "Is it you?"

"Mom." I whispered.

"Oh my gosh! My darling little girl! Where are you? I need to see you! I miss you so much. You're all I have. Your father he-" My mom stopped and I heard her sniffle. She was crying. "I was so worried. I heard you were with your father when he died and I thought you were gone to because they told me you were kidnapped. I honestly didn't know what to do. I need to see you sweetie. Please." My mom pleaded.

"Of course." I was also crying.

"Please come now I need to see your face."

"Of course."

~Time Skip~

I had finally arrived home and Kaneki was with me. When he heard of where I was going, he insisted that he should come.

I stepped up the door and walked in. The house was quiet. "Mom?" I called out but no one came. "Mom!?" I yelled a bit more loud.

Kaneki came up behind me. "Something's not right."

All of a sudden a CCG investigator stepped into view. He had his cinque out. "Two half ghouls huh? Murder of your own father huh?" The man glared at me.

"Where's my mother?!" I yelled at the man. Kaneki had now gripped tight into my shoulders.

"Safe. Who do you think called us?" The man smirked.

What?

"You traitor. Becoming a ghoul then killing your father? Sad." The man then swung his weapon at me.

Kaneki grabbed me and ran. He went out the front door and into the street.

The man followed us outside and tried to strike again. Kaneki and I both dodged separately this time.

"Stand still. It will be more easy." The man sounded harsh. A cold voice resonating from him.

I stood up and felt my rikaku spread out from my back.

"(Y/N)! Stay back!" I looked at Kaneki who was already a step ahead of me. He swiftly went after the man.

"(Y/N)!?" I looked over at my mom and she looked horrified.

"Why?? Why did you do this mom?? We are family?" I stepped towards her.

I stopped and saw her crying. She looked pained and looked away. She regretted it.

I then looked at the man. He aimed for me and swung his weapon. It was to late. I wasn't quick enough. I closed my eyes and awaited pain. When it didn't come I opened my eyes. My mother was in front of me smiling. Protecting me.

"Mom?"

"I'm sorry." She coughed up blood and fell to her knees. I grabbed her body and rested her head upon my lap. "(Y/N.)" she reached her hand up and stroked my cheek.

I cried. "Why? Why would you do that?" I gently put my hand upon hers and squeezed my eyes shut.

"Because we're family dear." I felt her hand go limp and I opened my eyes.

Her once opened eyes were now closed. Forever. "Mom?" I whispered, hoping she would wake up. "Mom? Mom? Mom?! Mom!!" I rested my head upon her body and exploded with a horrible sob. My bright beautiful mother was now gone. I cried and cried until I felt a hand on my shoulder.

It was Kaneki. I looked at the CCG investigator and saw his also lifeless body. "Take her inside. We need to leave." I nodded in understanding. Kaneki picked up my mother and walked inside. He laid her down on her bed and pulled the covers over her.

I kneeled beside the bed and began to cry again. I cried the most I ever had.

(Flashback)

Age: 5

I smiled at my mom. "Mommy?"

"What darling?" She picked me up and set me down on the kitchen counter.

"What happens after someone dies?" I lightly swung my legs and tilted my head.

My mothers face softened and she spoke up, "Well sweetie, they turn into an angel and go into the sky. They watch over you for your whole life, making sure you're safe."

I smiled. "I wanna be an angel."

"Oh sweetie, mommy will be an angel before you, but don't worry that will be in one thousands years."

I giggled. "Mommy will live forever."

"Oh! But (Y/N) will live even longer." She smiled.

I frowned. "But you will be gone."

"I will always be with you." She touched my chest. "In your heart." She then pulled out a key hanging from her neck. "When I move on, this key is yours."

"Ooo~ What's it for?"

"You'll see." She tucked the key away and picked me up. "Now, what's for dinner?"

I thought a little and smiled. "I've cream!"

My mom smiled and spun me around. We laughed a lot that day.

(Flashback end)

I thought back to that day and reached for the key. I unlatched the chain and took the key. I walked over to my mother's closet and opened it. On the shelf was a safe. I stuck the key in it and turned. Kaneki was watching my every move.

I opened the little safe door and pulled out what was inside. A picture. It was a picture I never saw before. I picture of my mom and dad and a girl I've never seen before. I turned the picture over and a address was written down. Where is this? I looked at Kaneki and held up the photo. "We need to go here." Kaneki nodded.

I tucked the photo away in my jacket. I walked over to the bed one last time. I pulled the blanket back over her and smiled. "Watch over me now mom."

A single year rolled down my cheek.
