Part Four

ANGST WARNING:
IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN TOKYO GHOUL AND DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED, STOP READING NOW. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

"Kaneki, don't go taking all of this on yourself so much." Hide looked at Kaneki. "That's something you've always done."

    Kaneki looked down with a slight smile. "Mhm..." Hide smiled a bit, but then looked to be in pain as more blood fell onto the floor. Hide quickly stood up and (Y/N) backed up slightly, worry written all over her face.

    "You know, Kaneki, you've gotten pretty famous." Hide said, pushing his hand against the table to prop himself up still. He then covered his face with his hand, like Kaneki had been doing earlier.

    ""Eyepatch," they call you!" He laughed slightly, which made (Y/N) and Kaneki smile a bit. He then put his hand a little below his eye.

    "You styling it up?" Hide joked, which made Kaneki let out a small bit of laughter, causing Hide to give a smile again. He then had a pained expression on his face as blood spilled onto the floor, causing him to wobble a bit, and (Y/N) to back up again in fear and panic. Hide fell to his hands and knees, attempting to stand up again, only to fall and fall back down onto his knees, hugging his abdomen. Kaneki and (Y/N) stared in shock, with (Y/N) already having tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Hide...?" Kaneki said quietly, clearly in shock. Hide winced in pain, more blood spilling from his wound and he clutched it. He then looked at the floor, trying to give a small smile.

"I screwed up... just a little bit out there..." Hide said, pain laced in his voice. He looked like at any moment he was going to fall on his face, so Kaneki quickly caught him. (Y/N) still stood there, crying and in shock before rushing over to her best friend and her boyfriend.

"Hide..." Kaneki said, tearing up again and closing his eyes. (Y/N) hugged them as well, not saying a word.

"Kaneki... " Hide said, grabbing Kaneki's shoulder.

(Y/N) watched, memories playing in her mind of her and Hide, as well as herself, Hide and Kaneki.

"Heyo, Kaneki, (Y/N)!" Hide grinned happily as he walked through the door of Anteiku, everyone smiling and waving at him as he walked to sit down with (Y/N) and Kaneki.

"Hey, Hide," Kaneki greeted softly, smiling.

"Sup, Hide." (Y/N) grinned, smiling at the blonde-brunette male.

"Come sit down, Hide. We were waiting for you before we go anything." (Y/N) said.

"Alright, cool. Thanks guys." He walked over to his two best friends and sat down with them.

"Touka-chan!" (Y/N) called out to the purplish-blue haired female.
Touka looked at (Y/N) and walked over to the table. "Hm?"

    "Could we get three coffees please?" (Y/N) asked kindly.

Touka nodded and wrote that down, then went back over to the bar area, placing the order. The Hide, Kaneki and (Y/N) got into conversations, smiling and laughing as they waited for the coffee to come.

Hide looked at (Y/N), weakly smiling. "Hey... (Y/N)...?" Hide said softly.

"Y-Yes...?" She stuttered.

"I love you... You know that no matter what happens, my heart is forever yours. I love you, always..." Hide said, giving a soft, sweet smile to his girlfriend.

"I-I know.." She stuttered again, hiccuping. "I love you, so much... You're my everything..." She gently grabbed his hand. Hide gave a small smile, using almost all of his strength to cup (Y/N)'s cheek, and pull her into a soft, tender kiss. She kissed back, being ever so gentle with him.

After a moment, he pulled away. "I love you, (Y/N)... Don't forget it..."
She nodded, "I won't, I love you too, Hide..."
