Hideaki Anno and Shop Gainax own Shin Seiki Evangelion
To my readers, this story is for you. To my inspiration, to my love and my first
A Story about love, but not a love story.
A Shinji/Rei story.
Wish you were mine
I wish you were mine
I wish I could say I love you
I wish you'd hold me tight
But I know deep inside
You feel nothing for me
I wish you were mine

We sat there talking as usual, under the Sakura tree.
As always, you'd cook me lunch, in a simple lunch box.
I'd pretend to listen to what you were saying, but in truth
I was admiring your dark blue eyes.
I remember you tell me about our fellow pilot, on how cute she was
I'd just smile, but deep inside I feel a bit jealous.
I'd then wish you were mine
I wish you'd hold me tight
I'd wish you'd say, "I love you"
I wish you'd say, "Your mine"
But I know deep inside, I'm just a friend
Special, but nothing more.

Sohryu Asuka Langley, your kawaii red head girlfriend.
I remember when the two of you broke up,
You cried unto my shoulder, I held you tightly as I could,
gently rubbing your back. I listened again to you as I always would
I felt bad when I saw you sad, I felt bad when you cried unto my
shoulders but I was happy to have you for that short time.
I remember you thanking me, you smiled that shy, sensitive
smile you always did. I blushed a little, because I never saw you
smile so beautiful. You gently kissed me on the cheek and said
"My best friend."
I felt mixed feelings that day, a warm fuzzy feeling inside me.
But I know I'm nothing more than a friend to you.
That thought saddens me.
I wish you were mine
I wish you'd say "I love you."
I wish you would hold me tight and claim me for your own,
but I know deep inside, I'm nothing more than a friend.

I remembered our prom night, when you told me your partner
couldn't come, I remember my promise, if we didn't have a
partner we'd go together to the prom, as friends.
I didn't have a partner, if I didn't go out with you, I'd rather be alone.
Besides, no one asked me to the prom.
I was really happy to be your partner. I really felt a spark that day.
You were smiling happily and I had so much fun.
I guess I'm glad you taught me how to dance.
You later told me you had the best night of your life
You kissed me slightly in the cheek,
I smiled, you said thank you
I held you tight.
+ + +
I cried my heart out when I found out you were engage to
Asuka, I cried every night, but of course I didn't tell you
because I know that I'm nothing more than a friend.
I remembered you hold me tight when I encouraged you
I remembered you kiss me in the cheek
I remembered your smile as you said this
"You're my best friend."
I wished you were mine
I wished you'd tell me you love me
I wished you'd take my hand
Hold me tight and kiss me,
But deep down I knew, I was just friend and nothing more.

At your wedding day, I sat at beside Dr. Ritsuko Akagi,
I kept wishing I was the one beside you
I kept wishing I'd be the one you'd choose
I wished you were mine
I wished I said I loved you
But deep inside me, you thought of me as a friend
The priest says "I now pronounce you Man and Wife"
+ + +
Three years have past, we seldom met
My heart died when you got married
My heart died when you were with someone else
Still we remained friends
Later did I know you wrote a journal
It was a best seller overnight
I couldn't wait to purchase it
So I bought a copy right a way.
+ + +
Tears fell from my crimson red eyes that day
I never knew what you felt
I hugged myself tight when I read your book
I read what you didn't say
"I had a very special friend who I really cared about,"
"I loved seeing her every time, but I couldn't bring out the words"
"Her lovely light blue hair, her tender white skin."
"Her care for me, but I know she thinks of me as a friend,"
"Everynight I wished for her, I wished for her to be mine."
"I wished I could have told her the words,"
"I wished to hold her tight."
"She's always been their for me."
"But I guess I was too shy."
"But I know deep inside, she thinks of me as a friend."
