Just because I can

A/N:Well yet again a new chappy X3 thanks to the people who read so far

For the fastness of the uploads… well I have too much spare time and too much boredom…

I'm posting this as fast as possible (like when I have a chappy finished!)

Something again bout the formatting the BIG 'nd bold letters are written stuff. The "" and italic stuff is what Shinji 'says' (he just moves his lips but… well…)

Disclaimer: See prologue.

Chapter 2

Taking Place

"Anooooo Ya' know my stuff will be here any minute…"

He nodded going through the hallway.

"… aaannnddd you haven't told me your name yet!"

He nodded again opening a door.

"Sooo could you please tell me?"

He nodded for the third time opening a drawer taking out a piece of paper and a pen and scribbled something down. Then he gave it to Akira.

It read:

MY NAME IS SHINJI IBU. NICE TO MEET YOU TOO.

"Huh?" now the redhead was even more confused.

Shinji took the paper again wrote a couple of words and gave it back again.

IT SEEMS THAT FROM TODAY ON WE'RE 'BROTHERS'

"Ah well I guess…" he scratched his head. "But why is it hat you don't speak?"

The bluenette yet again took the paper wrote something and gave it promptly back.

"Your personal business, he? Well you know like you said before we're supposed to be family now!" He looked slightly (but really just slightly) pissed off by now. "You should tell me those things!"

Again with the paper.

"Well it's not like I choose this either!"

He wanted to grab the paper again but Kamio held it out of reach.

"Stop with this bullshit writing! I can lip-read you know…" Now he just wanted to get in his bed and sleep. That of course wasn't quite possible, because the moving truck wasn't even there yet.

Now it was Shinji's turn to look a little bewildered (mostly internal of course).

"Why didn't you say so sooner? Then I wouldn't had had to go with this stupid writing."

"If you had given any signal that you won't talk than I would've said so sooner! And anyway why won't you talk? I don't think that you can't…"

"Ooohhh, and why's that again?"

"Just a feeling…"

"Great. A feeling. Why do I always have to get the freaks? "

"Hey! I've seen that last sentence! I'm not a freak!"

"Oh, yeah really? And why is that you can read lips?"

"It's because I rule!"

"Hai, hai… Sure thing…"

"And if I'm a freak because of that then you're one, too, because you don't speak!"

"Well I have my reasons! And just because I don't tell them just anyone doesn't mean I'm a freak!"

"Well I have a good reason, too, that I won't tell just anyone! And I bet mine's better than yours'"

"Fine!"

"Fine!"

It sure was funny our bickering like an old married couple when we just met.

I hadn't had a clue about his past and the hardships he had to go through.

Thinking back about it…

My ignorance wasn't that much of a blessing to us both…

--

The door rung.

Akira stood up. He had seen the movingtruck out of the corner of his eye through a window. "A'right that's probably my stuff… Mind helping me?"

"Why yes I actually do… but my 'mother' said I should help you…"

"Then come on! The moving people aren't going to be there all day!"

--

Aahhh right…

That time…

We pretty much pissed each other off whenever possible…

The good old days…

--

Someone opened the door.

"Ooiii! Shinji! I'm home again!"

He took off his shoes and proceeded to the kitchen.

He was greeted with an unusual sight.

It seemed like his 'brother' had a heated argument (what normally would never happen) with an unknown loud red-haired kid over… What? Seasonings of toothpaste?

"…and I tell you green tea is still the best on the market!"

"No, it's not. It's actually pretty sick if you ask me."

"No, it isn't! I bet you haven't even tried it once!"

"I don't even want to…"

They didn't seem to have noticed him, so he fake-caught to get their attention.

It failed. They were still arguing.

He waited till Shinji 'spoke' again. "Anoo boys?"

The redhead didn't seem to notice Shinji shortly glanced at him but engrossed himself again in his argument.

He sighed and tapped the newcomer on the shoulder.

And he finally looked up.

When something like a soul becomes
Initialized and folded up like paper dolls and little notes
You cant expect a bit of hope
And while your outside looking in
Describing what you see
Remember what your staring at is me
-Through Glass. Stone Sour

Thanks again youngdaughterofdarkness! And Aki-chan was already hot to begin with so I didn't really do so much X3. Data gathering is pretty important, huh? XDDDDD

Well I hope you all have fun reading this fic! I'll try to make a new chapter ASAP X3

OMG the chapters keep getting shorter OO; (under 2/3 pages each!) but the A/Ns, too ;D (at least a lil bit…)

There's pretty much dialog going on… -sweatdrop-

The grammar-devil! OMG save the children and women! (it's sooooo messed up)

And the quotes at the end keep getting more random XDD (gotta love randomness)

Yay a new character has appeared! Any guesses who it might be?

Well till next time

PS: Does anybody know if putting up quotes and parts of lyrics here is forbidden? I don't want to get in any trouble...
