A/N: SPOILERS FROM THE LAST CHAPTER WATCH OUT!

Your alarm clock rang, making you sit up in bed and shut the beeping object off, swinging your legs off the bed and onto the cold floor. Jumping up, you ignored the annoyed groan behind you and walked over to your closet, opening it and pulling out clothes to work out in.

"(Y/N), it's barely nine..." You heard Ginshi mutter before burying his head in his pillow.

"Yeah, no. We're going to that Exclusive Fit class together, Shirazu!" Once you were changed, you tugged the covers off of him, watching as he curled up on himself from the cold air.

"How are you so awake..." He mumbled.

"No idea, but get up! I'll make breakfast!" You smiled, waiting for him to get out of bed.

"I don't wanna..." He groaned, reaching for the covers. You slapped his hand away.

"Ginshi!" You scolded. "All this Quinx training blessed us with amazing bodies and if we don't work out it'll all turn into fat!"

"What ever. As long as you still swear and moan like you do, you're hot to me." That might've been flattering, if it weren't for how stubborn he was right now. Did you act like this?

"Alright, that's enough, drama queen." With that, you slid an arm under his back and one under his knees, lifting him out of bed and settling him feet first on the floor, ignoring his surprised yelps and complaints. "Get dressed, I'll make you coffee. Extra strong."

"I hate you." He muttered before heading to the closet to pick out his clothes for the session. "This was supposed to be our day off..."

"Sure you do." You sarcastically said, walking out of the room. "And we took a whole week off, Ginshi. We can be lazy another day."

"You could've told me that yesterday night!" The blonde yelled while getting dressed.

"Are you still on your after glow?!" You yelled back, incredulous. "God, you're worst than me! Are you gonna be on your man periods soon by any chance?"

"That's not even a thing." Ginshi said as he walked out and sat down in the kitchen, watching you make coffee. "And it's not my fault if I'm still... You're just good." The shark boy glanced away, a small blush on his cheeks.

After all these years, he's still flustered.

"Thanks, Ginshi. You're not so bad yourself." You said, turning back towards him with two cups of coffee, settling one in front of him. "Are you really gonna wear that shirt?" You questioned.

"What? What's wrong with it?" Shirazu asked, looking down at his dry fit shirt, trying to figure out what the problem was.

"Your collarbones are showing way too much." You said, brows furrowing. "I don't want every lady in there to throw themselves at you."

"You're worst than me! And besides, once they see I'm with you, they'll be envious. It's a win-win, no?" You tilted your head in confusion at Shirazu's words.

"How do you win?" You asked.

"I'll have you checking me out during the whole session."

••••

"I hate you so much for making me go through this." Shirazu said, panting too heavily to even drink water.

You chuckled and extended your hand. "Hand me the keys. I'll drive back. Your legs are shaking too much."

He obeyed your order and let himself fall in the passenger seat. "It's the squats! How are your legs not dying?!" He exclaimed as you climbed in the driver's seat.

Slapping your thighs, you winked. "I've got thighs of iron!"

Shirazu merely rolled his eyes. "Please tell me we've got nothing else today." He groaned, tilting his head back.

"Well, no. We're going back home, taking showers, getting dressed and we're visiting the Kaneki's." You said, turning the car engine on and driving away from the gym.

Ginshi moaned out in annoyance and you let out a loud laugh at his antics. "I don't even know how you'd survive without me! You've got zero motivation!" You said.

"I don't know either, but I sure as hell wouldn't be visiting Sassan every fucking two weeks." He sassed.

"Hey! Ichika's cute, okay? I love her so much." You smiled at the thought of that adorable summer child.

"You also said that about all nine of Naki and Miza's kids." Shirazu pointed out. "Shiroi creeps me out."

"He really reminds me of Yamori." You mindlessly said.

"Who's Yamori?" Ginshi asked, furrowing his eyebrows and tilting his head.

"People knew him as the 13th ward's Jason." You clarified. "Naki's 'big bro'."

"Oh god- you knew that guy?!" He exclaimed.

"No, but Sa- Kaneki's told me a few things about him, and I saw pictures. Anyways, get on your best behaviour. From what I heard, Tsukiyama and Nishio are visiting at the same time as us." You warned. Shirazu absolutely despised Tsukiyama– in a friendly way, of course.

"How do you know?! Did you plan this?! You know I hate that multi-lingual bastard!" He complained.

"Hinami I told me. She's also swinging by with Ayato, Banjou and Saiko." You smiled at Ginshi's antics. "You just don't like Shuu because we're close friends, eh?"

"Ichika thinks the two of you are a thing!" He said, trying to use it to justify his actions.

"Funny. At this point, you shouldn't even be intimidated by the guy. I'm pretty sure he's gay, too."

"What ever. I don't like the way he looks at you." Shirazu crossed his arms and looked out the window.

"Not my fault I smell like a snack to most ghouls." You stated, smirking. "Kidding, Ginshi. I love you and only you." You reassured him, pecking his lips before starting to drive away.

"I love you too." He replied.

••••

You knocked at the door, giving Shirazu a smirk before it opened, revealing Touka.

"Hey!" You greeted, smiling at her. "How's my favourite Maman-wife doing?"

"I'm well!" She smiled back before stepping aside to let the two of you in. "It seems a lot of people swung by." She stated with a surprised voice tone.

"Did we miss 'em?" You asked, walking in as Ginshi followed you.

"No, they're all in the living room." She said, closing the door behind her.

"Oh, by the way, this is for Ichika! She's turning six years old soon, right? It's a little birthday gift in advance." You said, handing Touka the box. "Careful, the icing can easily come off." You stated, winking.

"This thing's heavy!" She exclaimed as she took the pastry. "She'll have enough for a month!"

"Make sure she brushes her teeth well!" You stated. "Well, I'll go meet up with the others, is that okay?"

"Yeah! Saiko and Hinami have been waiting for you two, actually." Touka said, nodding.

With that, you hurried off to the living room, Shirazu walking behind you, smiling at your excited demeanour. He was a lucky man to have a woman like you all to himself.

"Hey guys!" You cheered as you walked into the room, surprised by how many people were here, Ichika in the middle with Shuu and Nishiki.

"(Y/N)!" The little girl exclaimed, smiling and running towards you. You slid your hands under her armpits and rose her up, carrying her.

"Hey pudding!" You greeted, smiling. "How's my favourite little princess?"

"I'm good!~" She giggled. "Where were you?" She asked.

You furrowed your brows in confusion. "I was... I was exercising with Ginshi earlier, so I couldn't make it on time with all the others." You confessed.

"Oh my god- don't say that to her!" Nishiki said.

"Rather bold of you, (Y/N)." Tsukiyama smirked, and winked at Shirazu, mouthing 'good job'.

"What? I'm being literal! We went to an Exclusive Fit class earlier! Right Ginshi?" Turning your head to the side, you noticed the blonde's face had turned completely red. "Unbelievable." Turning to Ichika, you pointed at Shirazu with your hand. "Can you believe I'm actually with him?" You asked.

She shook her head, a serious look on her face. "Don't be silly. You're with uncle Shuu!"

That seemed to make Ginshi snap back to reality. "What?! No she's not!" He argued.

"She is," the child insisted.

"She's not."

"She is!"

"She's not!"

"She is!"

"She's not!"

"Alright, Shirazu. You're not six, are you?" You said, setting Ichika down who gave him a small glare before running back to Shuu. "I can't believe you were actually arguing with her about this..." You muttered, before settling down beside Shuu on the couch.

"Shiragin's jealous!" Saiko exclaimed, smirking at her friend's reddened face as he watched you and Tsukiyama play with the small and adorable child.

"I'm not." He said, plopping down on the couch next to Ayato.

"I don't see why you should be. She didn't ask you for nothing." Hinami said, looking at you. "Though if I didn't know better, they do look like a couple..."

"Not helping, Fueguchi." Ayato said, chuckling.

"Where's Kaneki, anyways?" Ginshi asked, glancing around the living room, failing to spot the familiar head of white hair.

"Which one?" Saiko teased. "They're three."

"I mean Ken, Sassan, Maman, pick your name." Shark boy groaned.

"He went outside with Hide." Hinami answered. "Apparently the TSC needed him again."

"Oh, yeah. I heard about that." The blonde nodded, watching you play with the little girl.

Seeing you this happy, and with him, it seemed impossible that just a few years back, you were in a war with ghouls, risking your lives every day when the solution was right under your noses this whole time. Yet, here you were, with a happy ending, new friends, his sister back to her healthy self, and you were with him, for the rest of your life.

Ginshi couldn't dream of an ending any better than this one.

Shirazu Ginshi: After the fall of the CCG, Shirazu decided to get into the TSC as a peacekeeper alongside Urie Kuki and Kirishima Ayato. He supported his sister throughout the ROS obliteration process. A few months later, he and his girlfriend (Y/N) moved into a house together a few blocks away from the Chateau to stay close to their comrades. He got married three years after and lived a happy and faithful marriage.

Shirazu (Y/N): Unlike her husband, (Y/N) became Nishio Kimi's assistant, determined to help ghouls live a better, guilt-free life. She befriended countless ghouls, most of them in Kaneki Ken's entourage, like Kaneki Touka, Kirishima Ayato, Yomo Renji, Fueguchi Hinami, Nishio Nishiki, Tsukiyama Shuu, Banjou, Naki, Miza and many others. She was the one to convince Ginshi to move in with her near the Chateau and was the one to propose to him, three years later. She lived a happy and faithful marriage even though they both decided on not having any kids themselves. Instead they supported the Kaneki's and Naki and Miza's family, coming to their aid when ever they were needed.
