Kaneki had a nightmare- The Reaper had gotten ahold of him. Anteiku destroyed. Touka dead, trying to protect him. He should have been the one dead, Touka alive.

He woke up, traumatized, sweat rolling down his forehead into his eyes and burning them. He checked if it was real. If The Reaper was actually here, aiming for him. He soon figured it was only a dream, and slumped back into his bed and began to stare at the blank nowhere. The sky was still dark, and the clock read 1:37 am. Determined, Kaneki quietly crept out of his bed and went towards Touka's room. His legs were trembling, and he tried to stay quiet, afraid he'd wake someone up.

He had reached her room and opened the door. The creaky door, as always, creaked- and woke up Touka. "Kaneki?" she asked softly, and Kaneki was just staring at the floor, still unable to stop thinking of that dream. "Why aren't you in bed?" she asked. No reply... what was happening? Touka thought, and approched him. "Are you okay?" she asked once again, but without an answer, Kaneki just hugged her tightly, sobbing. "I should have died instead of you..." he sobbed out and tears fell on Touka's shoulder. "What are you talking about?" she asked and Kaneki told her everything. "It'll be okay, I'll never leave you, you know?" she quietly whispered, touching his soft white hair. 

I'll always be here, as long as you want me to.
