3rd Person POV

It has been a week since (y/n) went to Anteiku with Hide and Luke. Since then, (y/n) has been to Anteiku everyday after school drinking coffee and doing her homework to be with Kaneki and share that beautiful place with him, only, he wasn't there in the flesh, only in her heart. She got to know the waitress Touka who she found out that they had quite a bit in common with each other. Luke still had to tell (y/n) something, but, he could never find the right moment in time. What could it be? Would it change (y/n)'s life and the way she see's things? What will her reaction be to what Luke is trying to tell her? Kaneki was still no where to be found and Hide, well, he tried to fight on in life and decided to do everything for Kaneki. All his effort was for Kaneki, he was going to go places and had big dreams, keeping Kaneki near his heart the whole way. He also decided to continue Kaneki's dreams as well as his own.

(y/n) POV

It had been two weeks since Kaneki had...well...disappeared. When you tried to start a conversation with Luke, he always seemed to have something on his mind, just, bothering him more and more. You would always try to figure it out what was wrong, though, you could never put your finger on it. You would try to confront him but he would say he is fine and would change the subject. He now always wore a serious face which made Hide think that he had Luke all figured out now that he only spoke in one tone. But, you knew there was something more to it than just that. There was something he had to tell you. But what? And when?

It was after a long day at school and with your usual routine, you walked over to Anteiku. Walking up the stairs and opening the doors, you were greeted by a warm "Welcome" by the whole crew. They basically knew you by know, you were one of their regular customers. They would always reserve your spot in front of the window which would always have a different flower according to the day. You ordered your usual and sat down. Getting ready to study, Touka comes and places a hand on top of yours to stop you. "(y/n), i think it is time for you to have a break, i have lunch, wanna join me?" She said with i sweet smile on her face. You nodded and put your study back away. It shouldn't hurt not to study for one afternoon, right? You two were talking like there was no tomorrow, about how life has been and how you can't remember the last time you've talked like this. Touka's boss let her have the rest of the day off since she looked happy talking to you and having fun giggling. As you looked around the room you spotted a waiter that you've never seen work here before. You could only see the back of his head since he was cleaning another table. He was just taller than you and had longish black silky hair. The back of him reminded you of someone, but who? You saw the time and it was 6:30. You decided that it was time to leave and go home for dinner. You were saying your goodbyes to Anteiku as you walked out the doors watching the new waiter clean your table. It began to start getting dark and cold, you hurried down the street trying to get home quicker. You felt shivers down your spine. The lights kept flashing above you as you walked alone down the street. You looked up thinking someone was watching you, you felt it get colder by the second. Looking over too the other side of the road, was a silhouette of a man. You started remembering the stories your mum would tell you about ghouls...Starting to walk just that bit faster you looked behind you to see if the man was still there. He wasn't. This kind of calmed you and frightened you at the same time. One, because he was gone, and two, well, where exactly did he go?...You turned back to continue walking home, when you felt like someone was following you, watching you and seeing every turn that you make. You walked faster not wanting to see that man face to face.

You started to breathe heavily as it began getting colder. You saw your street up ahead and began to smile walking faster wanting to get out of the cold. Getting your keys out of your pocket, they were freezing, so you dropped them out of the fright of feeling the cold metal against your skin. You bent down to pick them up this time wrapping your sleeve around your hand. You stood up straight and stared with shock at what you saw in front of you. Turning the other way to try and run, it was no use. You tried to scream and kick, but, that did nothing. Realizing you were crying, you tried to get away not wanting this to happen....but it did. Pulling you along into a dark alley way with a hand over your mouth, was none other than the silhouette of a man....You tried to kick at him and tried to pull his hand away from your mouth. It was no use, he was too strong. This made you cry even harder, thinking that what your mother was saying in those stories where not just made up to keep you out of running away at night. But, what she was saying was true, and was happening right in front of your (e/c) eyes. The man kept pulling you into the dark alley way, getting deeper and deeper. Your eyes became blurry and your cheeks became warm. Pinning you to a cold, hard wall by your wrists, you looked away and closed your eyes not wanting to see what was about to happen. The pressure on your wrists was tight and very uncomfortable as you balled your hands into fists trying to get out of his grasp. You felt the man move closer to your exposed neck as you could feel his warm breath against your (s/c) skin. You started to breathe heavily as you felt a wet substance against your neck. Is he licking me?! Still not looking at the ghoul, he moved away and looked at your scared face. He smiled greatly and moved back in, this time talking a big chunk out of your shoulder. You scream in pain as you feel the monsters teeth sink in to your skin ripping your flesh right off. The pain was excruciating and you could not longer stand as you sunk down to the floor crying and grasping for air as you held your arm trying not to look at how bad it was. "Y-you m-monster!" You started to feel dizzy as you could see black forming around the outside of your vision. "P-please...help...me..."
