My Precious [Kaneki x Reader]

Chapter 40 - Mine

(A/N: There will be smut/fluff in this chapter, I have set up a warning for it's beginning and it's end, so those who don't like can just skip that part :3)

Kaneki's POV:

(Y/N) had carefully helped me up the stairs again. I had been holding on to her for dear life ever since she came home, constantly demanding her at my side.

We entered our bedroom as she helped me over to the bed and forced me to lay down. My healing abilities have taken a fatal hit from the anti-ghoul grenade Amon threw at me, that's the cause of this mess. Damnit, if I had just kept my focus I could have avoided this whole fucking situation.

"I'm gonna go get t--" (Y/N) began, but as soon as she said 'go' I had grabbed her arm and held her in place with a slightly nervous expression. I don't want her to leave... She has to stay...

"... Kaneki, I'm not going to leave... But I have to get the first aid kit and get those wounds stitched..." She whispered to me and flashed a kind, reassuring smile.

"I-I'm coming with you..." I said and slowly began to sit up, only for (Y/N) to immediately place her hands on my chest as she gently, but effectively, pushed me back down.

"No, you're in no condition to be walking around Kaneki, now, stay there and I'll be back in a flash." She said and before I could grab her again she immediately stood up and left the bedroom.

I immediately felt cold and lonely without her again and everything seemed to hurt even more. I reached my hand towards the door and tried to sit up again so I could follow her, but the wound in my stomach immediately screamed at me to lay down again. I groaned with a mixture of pain and frustration as I clenched my fists and glared down at the blood-soaked bandages.

"(Y/N)?" I asked and hoped she would come running, but she couldn't hear me. Damnit... I couldn't keep that brats words out of my head!

'Hey, mister, you should really take better care of your girlfriend...' The hell does he know... 'She might get hurt one of these days if you continue as you have up until now~' A low, threatening growl escaped from me as I up at the ceiling.

'Oh yeah, by the way, if you ever send her out on a mission like that again... I won't hesitate.' That's it. I struggled and got on my feet despite the pain and walked through the bedroom towards the door.

"Fucking..!" I hissed through gritted teeth and shut my eyes closed tightly. "Fucking anti-ghoul gasses..!" I growled under my breath and opened my right eye just enough so I could see where I was going.

"I swear to the motherfucking gods Amon..!" My vision began to darken with every agonizing step as I moved my right hand up and held my head. "... I'll kill you for this..." I said as I finally made my way to the doorframe and looked down the hallway.

"H-Hey... (Y/N)..?" I asked and took one step from the doorframe before she popped her head around the corner. Her eyes widening in fear and shock as her gaze lands upon me. I immediately regretted my decision to leave the bed as her expression was painful for me to watch.

We were both frozen in place, shocked. It felt as if my blood had frozen still, no longer circulating through my veins as tears threatened to fall from her eyes. I'm not able to move anymore... One step more and I'll lose consciousness from the pain...

"N-No... K-Kaneki..." She mumbled something in between, but those were the only words I was able to understand. She took a hesitant step towards me, but then sprinted to me and put my arm around her shoulder to steady me.

"T-The bathroom..." She whispered and thanks to her help, I was able to make it there. As we entered I turned my head and looked into the mirror.

My chest, stomach, arms, and shoulders were covered in my own blood. At the same time were blood slowly running out of my mouth. How the fuck did I not notice that..?! My eyes were dead and I was really really pale.
