My Precious [Kaneki x Reader]

Chapter 21 - Congratulations

Kaneki's POV:

I woke up the next morning as the sun streamed through the curtains and the birds could be heard singing on the outside. I looked beside me, expecting to see (Y/N) sleeping peacefully, but she wasn't there. I slowly sat as I rubbed my eye, still a bit tired from yesterdays stress. 

"(Y/N)..?" I yawned and climbed to the edge of the bed. 

"... O-Out here..." I turned my gaze to the bathroom door as (Y/N)'s voice echoed from inside. She had hesitated a bit before answering and her voice sounded somewhat exhausted. I stood up and walked to the bathroom door, gently knocking on it.

"Can I come in..?" I asked as I put my shirt and pants on. She didn't answer immediately, but I could her move around in there. The door then slowly opened and revealed a very pale (Y/N) behind it. I widened my eyes as I quickly walked over to her and put my hand under her chin, making her look up at me slightly. 

"... I don't feel well right now... It's probably just a cold." She said and shot me a weak smile. She then widened her eyes as she quickly turned around and ran to the toilet. She immediately bent over and vomited into it as I quickly walked over and held her hair back for her. I gently patted her back as her shoulders shook a bit from all the vomiting. 

"Just a cold, huh?" I asked and teasingly smiled down at her. She just looked at me with tired eyes before leaning on me. She was very pale and she looked really tired, she probably also still have a fever and she's sweating a bit. 

"This isn't all... All my wounds are gone as if they were never even there... I'm having the worst headache ever and I feel kinda dizzy... And--" She stopped talking as she bent in over the toilet again and vomited. I kept holding her hair back as I gently pulled down on her shirt to see for myself. Just as she said, both her shoulders looked like no one had ever done anything to them. I widened my eyes a bit and gently put my hand on her shoulder to feel if something was unusual, but everything seemed fine. 

"You're right... May I?" I asked and moved my hand to her stomach. (Y/N) just nodded her head as she pulled away from the toilet and slightly pulled up on her shirt. I widened my eyes even more as I saw her stomach, it was all clean, no wounds, not even the scar she got from the ghoul attack all those months ago. It was all gone. 

"Should we have someone take a look at you?" I asked as she tried to stand up, using my shoulder for support. I then stood back up as well as she put her arm around mine steadying herself a bit. 

"I think... Hinami should come..." (Y/N) muttered as I helped her to the bed and gently sat her down. Hinami!? I raised my eyebrow at her but she just gave me a stern look and waited for me to get Hinami. 

"Okay..?" I sighed and scratched the back of my head as I quickly went to get Hinami. I knocked on Toukas door as I waited for either her or Hinami to open, sure hope Hinami opens... The door then opened to reveal the both of them, looking at me confused. 

"Um, (Y/N) isn't feeling well and she told me to get you." I said and tried to act as if everything is normal as I looked down at Hinami. God, I shouldn't be here... At Anteiku. Touka just glared at me for a moment before she turned around and walked back into her room. Hinami quickly nodded and walked towards the room (Y/N) and I was sharing as I quickly followed behind her. We entered the room again as (Y/N) had laid down on the bed as she held her stomach and looked up at the ceiling. 

"What's wrong (Y/N)? Did your wounds re-open?" Hinami asked as she walked over to (Y/N) and sat down on the bed beside her. (Y/N) just shook her head and looked at me. I completely understood what she meant as I began to explain to Hinami.
