Tsukiyama's POV

After Kaneki and I finish our meal, we exit the Ghoul restaurant. I wish we could've stayed longer. But, there are so many things that you must surrender in a relationship. Freedom is one of those things.

Anyways, I feel like I did very well on this first date. I chose the best location! I'm sure Kaneki loved it as much as we love each other. In which I hope is a lot.

"Tsukiyama, why the Hell did you take me to a murder show for a first date?" Kaneki asks as we pass several buildings. Well, at least that's feedback. Even though it is negative.

"I thought you would like it. I had no idea that you didn't like to see multiple murders," I reply. "I don't like seeing killing at all!" Kaneki exclaims. Looks like we're not going to get along as well as I thought.

"You should've just said so," I say angrily, "we would have left sooner." I see Kaneki glare up at me. "And my answer 'I fucking hate it' wasn't enough for you to see that I didn't like it? You sure are one stupid Ghoul."

I stop and grab him by the arm. I push him against the front of a building. My Kakugan is flaring. "Call me that again," I say through gritted teeth. "I dare you to call me that again. Listen, if we're going to be in this forced relationship, we have to get along. Do I make myself clear?"

Kaneki looks me in the eyes coldly, "Crystal."

We continue walking home silently. When we arrive, Kaneki goes inside immediately. I follow him in. He goes to his bedroom. I'll give him space and sleep in here on the couch tonight. Since our tempers are flaring and this is my fault, I deserve the couch.

Maybe everything will be somewhat okay in the morning. I hate to go to bed angry with Kaneki, but I'm tired. Plus, since I'm already on the couch, I'm too comfortable to get up. Call me lazy, but I bet you do the same.

I lay on my side and close my eyes. Hopefully I can force sleep. I know I need it. The scene where I pushed Kaneki against the front of that building replays in my mind. I hate myself for it.

Why does life and relationships have to be so hard?

A/N Sorry it's short. This is all the inspiration I had to write right now. =)
