My Precious [Kaneki x Reader]

Chapter 19 - Realisation

Kaneki's POV:

We walked through the halls at headquarters as I mentally prepared myself for the biggest scolding of my life. Eto might be smiling all over, but we all know that's just an act. Ayato hasn't said a word ever since we left (Y/N) as he had just walked behind me. 

"Eyepatch, pick up your pace!" Tatara said sternly as he looked back at me from over his shoulder. I quickly did as he said and picked up my pace. Tatara opened a door for us as Eto walked in first as me and Ayato followed her and Tatara stayed outside. 

"Kaneki Kaneki Kaneki... Sweet Kaneki... Poor Kaneki" Eto cheered to herself as she stopped and turned slightly to look back at us, "I can't say that I'm exactly pleased with the outcome of this mission..." Ayato and I stopped in our tracks as we waited for her to continue. Eto just smiled as she shook her head slightly, "you had one job, bring back Shachi..." The smile disappeared from her lips as she turned to face us completely. 

"... He wouldn't follow orders and--" 

"I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR EXCUSES!" Eto shouted as she took a quick step towards us, causing Ayato and I to take a few backward. "You ignored your orders, you didn't bring Shachi back, didn't show up at the meeting point, played around with the humans and forced ME to come and get you!!" Eto said in an annoyed tone as she looked from me and over at Ayato. She laughed a bit to herself as a smile crept back onto her lips, "Black Rabbit, darling, would you mind doing a little thing for me?" She asked kindly as Ayato just looked at her dumbfounded. 

"... Whatever. What is it?" Ayato said in a lazy tone, acting like his old self again. Eto then pointed at me and smiled even wider.

"Hold him still, this can't go unpunished." She said as I widened my eyes a bit, ... Fuck this is going to hurt... I thought as I looked at Ayato out of the corner of my eye. He looked surprised for a moment but quickly smiled with a nod.

"Of course..!" He said as he walked up behind me and held both my arms tightly behind my back. 

"You're already enjoying this, aren't you?" I asked in a sarcastic tone as I made sure Eto couldn't hear us. He didn't say anything as he just waited for Eto to do something. 

"Now, I have one final subject to discuss with you Eyepatch," Eto cheered as she walked up in front of me and kicked me in the face, hard. I didn't do nor say anything as I just fell down on my knees, Ayato still holding me. "Does the name (Y/N) (L/N) say you anything?" Eto asked with an emotionless voice as she bent down in front of me and looked me in the eyes. I could feel how both me and Ayato immediately tensed up a bit, Ayato almost forgetting to hold me. How does she know about (Y/N)!? I just looked at her as she waited for me to respond. 

"No." I said as I just kept looking at her, trying to keep my cool. This is bad... Eto's expression seemed to darken a bit as she slowly stood up before kicking my face again. It hurt like hell but she just repeated to kick me until she took me by my hair and slammed my face to the ground. 

"Let me ask again, does the name (Y/N) (L/N) say you anything?" Eto said with a smile as she pressed my head a little harder onto the floor. I won't tell you anything... You can do whatever you want... Nothing you do can compare to the thought of losing (Y/N) to someone like you. 

"No." I repeated as I looked up at Eto as she pressed even harder, that's it... If she presses ay harder she's going to destroy my skull... I shut my eyes tight as I waited, but she just let go and stood up instead. 

"Okay, well that's a good thing then! It would be a real shame if something were to happen to someone we know, right? But if none of you know her, then it's still all clear!" Eto smiled again as I widened my eyes and just looked up at her. She then hurried to the door and opened it wide, "Tatara!" She cheered as Tatara appeared in the door and looked from Eto to us and then back at Eto.
