It was a bright and sunny day in the technological beauty known as Tokyo-3 and Shinji was lying in the outskirts of town. The grass blew with the flow of the wind and calmed down the worried young adult. School as well as his less than normal personal life was getting the most of him so he needed to relax. The new Eva pilot had arrived and he looked like he enjoyed the company of Shinji. Shinji was thinking of trying to be his friend but was too scared to actually approach this strange pilot, so thoughts of the silver haired teenager clouded his mind. Asuka approached Shinji abruptly and scared him. "What are you doing alone in a stupid place like this, Ikari!" she angrily nudged the side of his chest with her small foot. Shinji rolled onto his back and stared into Asuka's light blue eyes. She scared him a lot but he seemed to be used to being abused by Asuka both physically as well as mentally.
" Hello Asuka," he said sluggishly hoping she would leave once her existence was known. She smiled at him ruthlessly and dragged him by the arm underneath a shady tree.
"There have been rumors about Kaworu and since you are his best friend you could tell me the truth. So is he a little girly? Well you know what I mean." Shinji had a blank face and he didn't exactly know what the conniving girl meant. Asuka became irritated with Shinji so she hit him across the head. " Believe me you might just find out the truth the hard way." Shinji still was confused and he rubbed his head where she had hit him.
"That really hurt Asuka!" he said angrily. Asuka glared at him but remained quiet as she left him alone in the grass. He thought to himself for a few minutes but was disturbed by Kaworu who was looking for him. Kaworu smiled as he sat next to Shinji. Shinji became nervous and waited for Kaworu to talk to him.
"So do you have a crush on Ms. Soryu or is it just my imagination?" said Kaworu full of interest. Shinji blushed and didn't exactly know if he could deny how he felt. Though for some reason he told Kaworu everything and couldn't seem to stop himself. "Shinji.it's so obvious. It's okay if you like her. It's not like I'd care at all," said Kaworu who knew he was lying to Shinji but he hid his nervousness well.
Shinji sighed and turned a light pink once he thought of actually being able to date Asuka. "I don't think she likes me at all. She wouldn't be stupid enough to go out with me anyways and I doubt I fall in her list of manly men." Kaworu laughed and pat Shinji's back.
"Well I'd like to go out with you!" there was an awkward silence as Shinji realized what Kaworu had said to him. Kaworu blushed and immediately corrected himself, "Umm I mean if I were Asuka. You know you are a nice guy and you're handsome for a male." Shinji laughed and sat up.
"You are joking right? You know I'm stupid as well as ugly and that makes me hard to like. Just look at my personality, Kaworu. If someone actually wanted to be my friend they'd be stupid."
"So are you saying that I'm stupid for liking you the way you are?" said Kaworu who waiting for some sort of reaction from the insecure boy. Shinji didn't mean to insult him and tried to apologize to him at once.
"Oh I'm so sorry," Shinji's eyes opened wide as he realized what the other boy had said to him. "You're my friend?"
"Well that's kind of what I would think since we always hang out all the time." Shinji's dark blue eyes seemed to glisten at the fact that he had a new best friend. Kaworu smiled at him with his long mouth and was happy that Shinji actually appreciated his company. The wind blew harder and the bright clouds started to darken. It looked like it was going to rain and soon enough heavy rain began to fall on both of the boys. The best friends fled the grassy plains and looked for some shelter but they couldn't find any.
They saw Asuka in the rain too and she appeared to be lost as well. Shinji ran towards her. He was worried about Asuka getting sick so he pulled her along with him. "I don't want to go anywhere with you two idiots!" She was dripping wet and was sneezing constantly. Shinji held her in his arms and Kaworu glared at Asuka who was trying shove off Shinji. "I'm not a baby! I can walk by myself!" She managed to push him off. Kaworu looked at Shinji's sad reaction to Asuka pushing him away.
"I just don't want for you to get sick, Asuka." He stood with Kaworu as Asuka abandoned him in the rain. Asuka ran away from them and went back into the city.

Shinji threw himself on the bed and looked at Kaworu as he got out some towels for them to dry themselves with. Kaworu handed Shinji a warm blue towel and smiled at him. Shinji dried his soaking wet hair but couldn't seem to dry it. Kaworu looked at him from the corner of his eye and found himself blushing at the sight of Shinji's blue eyes. Shinji noticed Kaworu looking at him and smiled. "What's wrong Kaworu?"
"Oh nothing's wrong at all." he laughed and his red eyes brightened. Shinji became skeptical of what the other friend had said. Kaworu began to heat up some water to make Shinji some hot chocolate. He tried his best to not boil the water too much because it might burn Shinji.
Shinji stopped trying to dry his hair and stared at Kaworu concentrating on the simple task of boiling water. "Do you need help over there?"
"No thanks but you should stay where you are and keep warm. I wouldn't want you to get ill on me and die." Shinji had a surprised look on his face because of how much Kaworu cared about him.
"Thanks Kaworu."
"For what?" He questioned Shinji because he didn't understand his choice of words. Shinji was happy that he actually had a friend that cared about him and listened to what he said. Kaworu poured the hot water into the NERV cup where he put a few spoonfuls of cocoa. He handed Shinji the cup of cocoa without asking him if he wanted any but he basically insisted that he drink it.
"You know, being a good friend. Before I couldn't be able to relax with my friends and talk to them about anything without stalling at all. I'm just happy that I think you're the only person who understands me." Kaworu sighed and lightly blushed at Shinji's grateful comment.
"No I should thank you for being my friend as well. Well, you're my only friend." Kaworu admitted to himself that he liked Shinji a lot and didn't find any flaws in his personality. He vowed to help Shinji to not be so insecure but it looked hard to change his mind after everything he went through. Kaworu sat next to him and purposely got lost in Shinji's sad dark blue eyes. Shinji looked to the floor once they were eye to eye and thought about what Asuka was trying to say about Kaworu. He tried to shake the thought out of his head but instead something else came to mind.
"Kaworu?" he looked back at him. "Do you think anyone would care if I died?"
"Well first thing of course, my life would be crushed because of your loss. And I doubt that no one other than me would care. Asuka and Misato would probably miss you too. You mean a lot to everyone you know, especially me." Shinji smiled at him but he decided that words couldn't express how happy he was to have a close friend. It was still raining outside but the force of the rain was dying down. Though everything was murky and muddy, so they couldn't go back to the grassy part of town. Everything was silent except the sound of the rain dripping down onto the building. Shinji sipped the hot cocoa and grinned at Kaworu at how good it tasted. Kaworu threw himself on the bed because he was bored and had nothing to do. "This isn't the best day in the world is it?" Shinji nodded.
"All I know is that Asuka isn't in the best mood either. She tends to be mean everyday but today she's been worse." Kaworu remained quiet when it came to talking about Asuka, for some reason he didn't exactly like the fact that she could easily win Shinji's love but didn't seem to care. Every time he heard her name he would instantly grimace at the thought of her ruthlessness towards poor Shinji. He knew Shinji was helplessly in love with the German redhead but there were signs his fragile heart would be cold bloodily broken by the domineering girl.
"Why don't you just forget her. The sad truth is that she doesn't like you at all, so there isn't the best chance of you actually getting her to feel the same." Shinji frowned at him but didn't say anything to the jealous boy.
"I already accepted the truth when I first met her. She has no need for an idiot like me but that didn't stop me from liking her a little bit more than a regular acquaintance." Shinji turned his head away from Kaworu, "NEVER bring this up ever again! You know it hurts me to talk about these sort of things." Kaworu became scared that Shinji was really angry at him and was ready to apologize to him.
" I didn't mean to offend you but I was trying to spare you the sadness. I just don't want her to distress you in any way. You know I love you with all my heart Shinji and I'd like you to be happy but it just can't be her." Shinji backed away from him but was so stunned with what he said. Kaworu was really creeping him out now and Shinji wanted to leave Kaworu's room. Instead, he rushed out of the room with out any good byes to the sad Kaworu. Kaworu looked the other way hoping this was all just a bad dream. He hated to hurt Shinji when he was trying to tell him how he felt about him. It stopped raining and the moon was the only light in his petty room.
