(Tokyo Ghoul) Uta X Reader- Eyes REQUEST

(Tokyo Ghoul) Uta X Reader- Eyes REQUEST

Request from @i_ship_ereri

I keep going to the river to pray

'Cause I need something that can wash all the pain

And at most I'm sleeping all these demons away

But your ghost, the ghost of you

It keeps me awake

You tossed and turned in your sheets. Wide awake in the middle of the night- unable to close your eyes because of those hauntingly beautiful red eyes.

You had never believed in the existence of ghouls. Even when you saw the mutilated bodies on the news (or even screams in the night). Perhaps you were simply a little too much of a realist (Or a little too naïve). That was until tonight. As usual you had been walking through the quieter shadier parts of town (alone of course) after work and happened to hear a muffled scream in an alleyway. Your sense of curiosity overwhelmed your sense of immediate danger and unable to resist the temptation you quietly peeked in.

Only to be met with piercing red eyes that could only be described as otherworldly, inhuman. You could've ran. Could've screamed but those eyes- they had you hypnotized.

Closer and closer, until those eyes were mere inches from your own. So close you could smell the metallic tang of blood in his breath. You stood still, horrified yet fascinated still, because how could a monster have such beautiful (deadly) eyes.

"Boo."

His chocolaty voice oozed satisfaction (from scaring you or perhaps having just finished his meal- you did not know) and just like that he disappeared into the darkness of the night, leaving you staring at the full extent of carnage he had caused on the alley floor.

My friends had you figured out

Yeah, they saw what's inside of you

You tried hiding another you

But your evil was coming through

The second time you had met him was a coincidence too great to not be fate. Your friend had been dying to take you to a quaint little mask store she had found in the more isolated parts of town. But each time she had visited alone, there was no one there to greet her. The moment you walked in you were met with the very same crimson eyes that haunted and plagued your thoughts from all those nights ago. You locked eyes with him and there was no mistaking it.

This was the ghoul you had met in that alleyway.

His eyes held an incredible amount of emotion and intensity. Was it because he recognised you? Did he regret not killing you that night? Or perhaps did he want to kill you now?

You had yet to break out of the trance he placed you under for you found yourself not quite minding dying at the hands of him.

To his surprise and your friends, you shot him a small smile (as if resigning yourself to fate) and held you your hand to him.

"Nice to meet you, I'm (Name)."

"Likewise. I'm Uta."

Unfortunately your friend had not taken to Uta as much as you had. In fact it was as though she was afraid. Afraid of those beautiful red eyes that had you so captivated.

"U-Uta-san... Are those eyeballs real?" Your friend stuttered.

"Hmm... I wonder~" He maintained eye contact with her whilst rolling an eyeball between his forefinger and his thumb.
