Chapter Text
Kaneki stared in awe as his wife downed the fifth or the sixth cup of blood wine and swallowed. With her face being bright red and eyes droopy, he decided to stop her from drinking any more. "I think that's enough, Touka-chan.. you've proven to me that you can drink more than I can..."
He took the bottle from her, but she snatched it back from him. "No! I can drink more!!"
Worried, he watched her shaky hands position the mouth of the bottle to her wine glass and attempted to pour the liquid into the glass. As he expected, she spilled it onto the table, which then dripped to the floor.
"Aaah! Touka-chan, stop!!" He grabbed her wrist and made her put down the bottle before scrambling to the kitchen for a clean towel. When he returned, she was laughing at the liquid that continued to drip from the dining table to the floor.
After cleaning up the mess she made, he poured all of the blood wine down the sink and disposed of the bottle. He returned to where Touka sat and saw her taking off her shirt.
"W-What are you doing?!" He almost screamed.
She glared at him. "It's hot."
It wasn't the first time he was seeing her in her bra and the shorts which she is in the middle of removing but he was trying to exercise the gentleman in him to not look. "You shouldn't take off your clothes just because you feel hot..! If everyone did that, then the whole streets would be filled with naked people--"
He couldn't finish his words when her shorts hit his face. It covered his view for a moment and dropped to the floor to expose his eyes to his wife in her underwear. His cheeks burned and he forced himself to focus. Picking up her clothes, he walked towards her and held her clothes out. "Please put them back on." He pleaded, desperation in his eyes.
Touka pouted. "No."
Closing his eyes, he prayed to God and tried to think of ways to handle his wife's new side. Her drunk side. As he racked his brains, she wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her body to his. "Where aren't you looking at me?!" She demanded and his eyes shot open.
"T-Touka!" Kaneki squeaked, stepping back but she had her arms locked around his neck, forcing him to stay put. "T-That's because you're not wearing any clothes--"
"Look at me!" She half-sulked, half-barked, squished his cheeks together with her hands and made him look into her eyes.
She shook him back and forth. "Look at me!!!" She repeated louder.
"Okay, okay, I'll look at you! So please stop shaking me!!! I'm getting dizzy! Toukaaaa!!"
He was going to die dealing with a drunk Touka.
Calming down, she did as he asked and waited for him to look at her. The moment he did, her lips touched his and he froze.
A part of him told himself to be the perfect gentleman and not take advantage of a lady when she's not sober, but another part of him realized that they were married and that nothing will happen if he just let her do what she wants.
Besides, it's not every day that he gets to see his wife being so forward. Closing his eyes, one hand positioned on her lower back while the other on her waist to pull her closer. He finally kissed her back and he could feel her smile through the kiss.
Tapping his fingers up and down her back, he grinned as she burst into a rare fit of girly giggles and thanked God for that. "Stop that!" Touka laughed, her hands resting on his chest.
He beamed. Her smiles and laughter always made him feel happy. "You need to rest. Can you walk?"
She shook her head. "Nuh-uh. I won't walk. What are you gonna do about it?" She teased, eyes twinkling in amusement.
He placed his hands on his hips and huffed playfully. "What a troublesome wife I have."
She screamed in surprise as he bent down to carry her up in his arms princess-style with ease and started walking to their bedroom. "Let me go!"
"No can do."
Things went silent for 3 seconds.
"I love you, Ken."
He stopped in his tracks at her sudden words and looked down at her with wide eyes which soon turned glassy. "I love you too." He felt his face become sore from grinning too widely.
Touka smiled and pulled him down for a kiss. "You're a big idiot, you make me worry so much and piss me off so much but I love you. I love so much, you idiot." She then leaned her head on his chest and closed her eyes. "What have you done to me to make me like this..." She murmured.

The next morning, Kaneki told his wife all about how she acted under the influence of alcohol and she threatened him that if he ever told anyone about this, she'd chop him into pieces and feed him to the sharks.
