Sat in his favourite cafe, Kaneki’s eyes wandered from his novel—a rare coincidence—as he noticed a figure enter the building. Your figure. He could see necks snapping as you walked past them, and he knew his neck would be the next. Yet what really caught his eye, was the book you were reading.

Ken had never imagined that someone as stunning as you would also enjoy the same books as he did. Sen Takatsuki, an author he admired immensely. Seeing you read the same book he was; Egg of the Black Goat he definitely wanted to make a move. Yet it seemed you made it for him.

Kaneki had never been popular amongst women or men, just people in general. So imagine how surprised his best friend Hide is seeing the person he was talking to was an absolute jaw dropper?

When you noticed the fact he was reading the same novel, you had initiated an eccentric conversation with the boy about how he adores their works. One thing led to another and soon your Saturday was booked, with a date, with him. He wanted to take you out on a bookstore date, his ideal date.

“So… what’s your favourite novel from Takatsuki?” He managed to meekly spill out. He was nothing but a bundle of nerves right now, God you managed to clean up nicely. If your regular appearance wasn’t already stunning, you looked beyond perfect right now.
