Sasaki-sensei [Haise x Reader]

Part 4: Ghoul

"You saw?" Haise asked me, sounding serious.

"S-saw what?" I avoided eye contact, but I supposed it's quite obvious that I was sweating nervously.

"It's okay, it's not like I'm going to do bad things to you only because you find out," he touched the nape of his neck. "I was the one being careless, so..."

"Are you a..." I plucked up the courage to confirm my suspicion. He was about to nod in agreement when I said, "a... genetically modified super-soldier?!"

Haise laughed out loud, "That was definitely not the question I ever expected!" I waited until he stopped laughing (because that was such an adorable sight!) but he continued to chuckle.

"Although, that's not entirely wrong on some level," he finally explained. "I'm a human-made ghoul."

"Y-you are a half-ghoul?"

Haise blinked his left eye and when he opened it, it's already red on the darkest black.

"That is so cool...! Oh my gosh, I've always been curious about the anatomy-I mean, the physiology of ghouls," I had to quickly correct it because I didn't want him to think that I wanted to find out about his anatomy (but we all know the truth).

Haise seemed to be surprised by my reaction. "Are you not afraid? Or maybe... think that I'm disgusting?" he forced a grin.

"How can anyone be afraid of a cute little cinnamon bun??"

Oh crap, that wasn't a monologue. I said that out loud. I JUST SAID THAT OUT LOUD, DIDN'T I??

"Cinnamon bun?" Haise was puzzled for a mere second, then realised what I meant, "You mean me?"

I wanted to die.
