For you? Anything {Hide X Kaneki}

Chapter 13

Previously
I didn't even remember closing my eyes to sleep but I must of because I awoke, however I couldn't see anything. I thought I felt something over my eyes, sorta like a blindfold. I tried reaching up to take it off out of instinct... But my arms were bound down.

♡

Instantly I flipped out and started to flail around, pulling my arms up trying to get out of my restraints. My breathing was heavy and beads of sweat formed at my hair line. Millions of thoughts raced through my head, 'where was I?'
'why was I here?'
'why me!?'
'why am I chained down?'
and with all the other 'why' questions that passes across my thoughts only a few questions were different.. When would I see Kaneki again? Is he safe? ....

All my panicking came to a stop as I felt a hard slap below my left eye. A burning sensation started in my cheek and spread throughout my face. My breathing was now shallow and uneven, nervous and extremely unsteady.

"W-who's... there?" I managed to stutter out in nothing more than a whisper. It barely escaped my lips and I wasn't sure if the sound was loud enough to be heard.

All I got in response was laughter, "Whats that huh? So petrified only squeaks can come out of that tiny pouty mouth of yours. Your ao pathetic!! You even cry in your sleep, begging for Kaneki to come back. Well guess what kid, he's dead!"

My heart stopped.. Everything froze my vision started to get blurry andbthe world felt as if it was dancing in circles around me.
"No... Your wrong.. No I know he's not dead..."

Right?.. This must be another one of their stupid tricks I know he isn't dead.

"Why did you tell me that I know he isn't dead," I started to lose my footing and my fingers began to fidgit with my shirt, seemingly on their own, "w-what the use... I-In telling me Kaneki is dead, I know he isn't. It's just one of your jokes right... RIGHT?!?!?! ... Answer me?!"

.... Still no answer. Why isn't he saying anything. I looked deeply into his eyes although it was hard to stay concentrated so I couldn't tell his emotions. It didn't matter though, his expression was like stone in place, unchanging.

He's not dead... Not dead, but a voice in the back of my head wickedly said, just keep telling yourself that you know it's not the truth.

Kaneki's POV

The scent of salt, and the feeling rocking of back and forth. Am I a baby again? My mom did always have a sort of salty smell. Like she was always sweaty and exhausted from her many jobs but always managed to cover it up with just a smile. But of course my mom was dead and she couldn't be here.

Unless of course... No there's no way this was my heaven, this rocking back and worth had a sickening feeling to it and I don't recall dying. In fact the last thing I remember was being seperared from the woman I was currently dating... Touka.

{A/N Haha confusing right stay with me it will make more sense as the story progresses}

With a small amount of effort I weakly opened my eyes. The brightness was to much and I forced them back shut, before slowly letting my eye lids part once more.

Everything was blurry at first and all I could process was the blinding light coming from a small circle-shaped window. Soon enough my vision came to me and I could see ocean out of that window and boxes surrounding me. From what I could tell I was at the bottom of a boat where thry stored everything.

What kind of boat though, I'm not sure. However I could hear the faint sound of laughter and music. Cruise ship maybe.

I pushed myself off the ground which resulted in my legs wobbling and a dizzy sensation whirling through me. I fought back the urge to throw up. I'd never been on a ship and I did get motion sickness easily.

I shook it all off and managed to stay standing. The ship wasn't rocking much it was more like subtle dip and then going back up. Over and over again. It's not like it made it too hard to walk it was more of the sickend feeling it gave me that made me wobbly.

Never the less I walked over to a metal door and yanked on the thin handle pulling it up and down, wiggling pulling pushing. Until I gave up in defeat this door wasn't opeming anytime soon.

However I heard clearer noises than the sound of talking and laughter coming from elsewhere on the ship, coming from down here. I tried my hardest to stay silent as I walked towards the sound until it became clear enough to make out words.

"-yes many have claimed that they have been experiencing weird things, such as seeing people they know in mirrors and water, different things that reflect or just in their dreams. And whoever they see seems to be slightly different from the version of said person they know. For example I saw my sister while looking into the bath the other day and she seemed healthy and still had freckles spread on her face, however my sister died a year or so back when she went to get her freckles surgically removed she had ended up getting skin cancer and soon after died as result..."

"And Sir. What does this show?"

"Well me and many others have come to believe that our universe may be colliding with one parallel to ours, their are theories people believe, that their are an infinite number of universes all carying different realities, in one universe I might have made a certian decision but in another I could have chosen the opposite one. Thus creating one universe to be slightly altered from the other. The phenomenon many are experiencing is because of this collision I believe."

"Well thats it for now folks we will be back after these ads!"

My mind was crazed hearing all of this and I peaked around a corner to see a radio sitting on a table, however no one was there.

I had heard of that theory before in a book though.. One about their being an infinite number of universes each carrying a separate reality.. But I had never thought about it being true or two of them colliding for that matter.

I do suppose however that if there's an infinite amount of something there must be a high chance of two of them colliding..

And of course it would expain why everytime I look in the mirror I see Hide stuck in a white room alone, sometimes going crazy.

Even though I had stood over Hide's hospital bed not long ago as he died after being shot they had just taken him off life support...

Sadest thing yet I had been head over heels for Hide since we were kids and now I was dating Touka, she insisted I should date her since I needed the comfort after my best friend died. Not knowing what to do and hardly caring about anything anymore I agreed.

A/N
Yes I know there is ALOT happening but if you understand most of it good job your good at comprehension. The next chapter will be a filler chapter and only about 500 words. Then the chapter after that will explain more of course and sorry I updated a little late I'm on vacation and don't always have service but I decied I should update two chapters at once since I've been updating slow.
