Joe walked up to Apartment 402 and knocked on the door, he waited patently till a still naked Rei opened the door and waited for him to speak.
"Why…are you naked?" Joe looked at her at her head, and just her head.
"I always sleep this way." She bluntly stated.
"Well I have been assigned to pick you up and to take you to NERV for your memory-thingie." Joe so eloquently stated.
"Are the other pilots required to be there at NERV as well?" She stated softly.
"Actually yes, they have a sync test." He looked up and away till she turned away and whispered something. 'Does she have…a house guest?' He wondered till he saw a partial dressed third and a fully dressed second.
"Well, well…having fun aren't we?" Joe cocked his eyebrow while he looked at the third child.
"Uhh…" Shinji was just speechless.
"Well come on…we gotta go." Joe just ignored the embarrassed teen and calmly waited for Rei to dress herself. In fifteen minutes Rei walked out with both Shinji and Asuka, The former looking calm and the latter two looking suitable embarrassed. Joe just shook his head and smirked.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Shinji looked at the monitor inside the EVA and sighed. 'I…didn't want to choose…but…apparently…Rei knows that I'll always be there…' He was brought out of his thoughts by Misato.
"Shinji…try to concentrate, you just dropped a couple of points…" The good Captain had a slight smile on her face.
"All right…" Shinji sighed and concentrated on the EVA again. The red headed pilot of unit 02 just chuckled. 'He might be off because of last night…oh what fun…might try to the same thing tonight…if he's "up" for it…' Asuka looked as red as her plug-suit. Misato looked at the monitor that showed the second child and smiled evilly. 'I wonder why she went out last night…could it have something to do with Shinji?' Misato noticed that Asuka had opened up a private line to Unit 01s plug.
"Asuka, can I speak to you privately after the test?" Misato still had a smirk on her face.
"Uhh…sure…" Asuka had a worried look on her face. The second child glanced at the third and smiled a small smile.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Joe looked at the monitor in confusion. Ritsuko stood behind and just looked at the sub-commander.
"Sir…usually we don't leave till morning…" Ritsuko hinted, but it flew over his head as a 747.
"And that's suppose to mean?" Joe cocked an eyebrow.
"Well, it does get rather lonely down here…" The good doctor looked again in a seductively light.
"And?" Joe still looked like he wasn't getting it.
"Never mind…" Ritsuko just sighed and got back to the monitor. 'It's going to be a long night…'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Misato looked at Asuka with a look of a predator. Asuka had a confidant look, but barely holding.
"So…where were you last night?" Misato just cocked an eyebrow.
"Well…Rei wanted me to come over; she had a few questions that only one such as myself could answer." The second child haughtily replied.
"Which were?" Misato had a knowing look.
"Uhh…I can't really say…" Asuka blushed as she looked away.
"Really…is it something…personal?" Misato looked deep into her eyes.
"Uhh…you could say that…" Asuka blushed the color of her plug-suit even more.
"Ok…just don't be too loud at night, and use protection." Misato wisely stated to a blanching second child.
"O-ok…" Asuka sheepishly nodded her head and left.
"I just hope it's not too late…" Misato sighed as she felt touched by a little jealously.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Rei held Shinji's hand as they walked through the park. The former had a smile on her face and the latter had a small smile on his. 'It's only been a few months, even though it feels like a life time…'
"Rei, why did you say that to Asuka?" He looked deeply into her eyes.
"Say what?" Rei looked confused.
"That she could do anything she wanted with me." He answered the question.
"Because your heart is mine, I do not mind if you share your body, do you not like this?" She looked into his eyes questioningly.
"Well…i-i-it's normally between two people a-a-and I didn't want to hurt you…" He was shushed by her putting a finger on his mouth.
"You can never hurt me that way; I just want you to be happy." She pulled him close and kissed him deeply.
"A-alright…" He smiled as he held her close.
"Lets go to a movie…" She stated and he nodded.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Joe walked out of the elevator and bumped into Misato, the former helping the latter up.
"Uhh…hi…" She had a wistful look on her face. He grinned a little bit but didn't let go of her hand.
"Dinner, tonight, at the 'Stomping Grounds', on me." He had a charming glint in his eye.
"Sure, what time?" She just stood there in awe.
"Eight, I'll pick you up, 'kay?" He cocked an eyebrow as he looked at her.
"Ok, see ya' then…" She unwillingly pulled her hand from his grasp.
"Tonight…" He stated as he walked away.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Ritsuko walked into her lab and found the triple agent there, leaning against the counter. She smirked at Kaji and he returned it.
"I have a proggie' for ya'…" He had a devilish grin on his face.
"What does it do?" The good doctor took the offered disk questioningly.
"Well it's a shut-down program…for the entire base. It will test the kids…ability…to work with one another." The triple agent had a knowing air about him.
"Don't worry about that…I heard from our esteemed Sub-Commander that Rei had house guests over…a second and a third child." Ritsuko smirked as Kaji looked annoyed.
"Really…this could change SEELE's plans for them, they might send the seventeenth early…or they could assassinate the first just to get to Shinji…" The triple agent had a thoughtful look on his face as he pondered the possibilities.
"Well we'll have to make sure that doesn't happen…if you have any contacts, get in touch with them…a…certain amount of funds will be available to pay them so don't worry about that." The good doctor looked through steepled fingers while still holding the disk in question.
"So are you gonna load it?" The triple agent looked seriously at her.
"Are you going to contact your friends?" She looked back just as serious.
"…Why not, it will be a change of pace for them, what about Rei?" Kaji looked confused.
"Well…Shinji will have to move in with her." The good doctor smiled.
"Misato won't like that…does he know how to use his pay-card?" Kaji cocked an eyebrow.
"Oh well, we'll just explain why, with all the danger that will come his way." The good doctor smirked and inserted the disk.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Joe looked at the clones floating in the vat of LCL and he looked at the kill switch. 'What to do, what to do…have to do this before SELLE gets ahold of it.
"Well, if I do, I piss off SEELE…yup; time to throw in the monkey wrench!!!" He grinned like a madman as he hit the switch and watched as the clones giggled till they disintegrated. 'That ought to ruin a few plans…now to get ready…'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
The ninth angel began crawling to shore with only one thing in mind, to get to Adam. It continued to crawl on the ocean bottom getting closer to Tyoko-3.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Fuyutsuki looked at the monoliths and looked back down.
"Are we on schedule?" Monolith #1 intoned.
"We are getting ready for the ninth angel, and getting ready to test the children…" The old professor was interrupted by monolith #2.
"We don't care for the children, what of the dummy plug system?"
"Currently in progress." The old professor monotoned.
"See that we get the results first, and know that we are looking into Ikari's…accident." Monolith #3 had a almost caring tone in it's voice.
"You may leave." Monolith #1 intoned. Fuyutsuki ran his keycard again and it returned to his office. He sighed glad that that part of the day was over. 'If I know what my second in command has done, this will make the old men angry…exactly the reason I picked him, as well as other reasons.' The buzzer for the intercom went off and the sectary's voice came over it.
"Sir, there is a Kaji to see you, should I send him in?"
"Yes." The old professor sat in the high backed chair with showing confidence.
"Ya' know, this Average guy is more slippery than I am, but you are right, the cameras went out about fifteen minutes ago and he was shown sleeping in his quarters. Nice piece of work that man is…" The triple agent took a seat and cocked an eyebrow.
"I know of your…unpleasantness…with the sub-commander, but he has his uses, just like you do. You don't have to hide your contempt with him; he just did what I thought he would do." The old professor smiled at the triple agent's discomfort.
"What did he do if I may be so bold to ask?" Kaji looked curious.
"He just destroyed the dummy-plug system, but you already knew that." Fuyutsuki had an all knowing smirk as the triple agent nodded.
"Yeah, I did know. It wasn't that hard to figure out what he was doing. He's got balls; he'll need 'em in the near future." Kaji smirked back as he got up to leave.
"One more thing Agent Kaji, please clean up your own messes, I don't like doing it for you. A word of advice is more discreet with your dealings with Dr. Akagi. That will be all. Dismissed." The new commander looked at the triple agent and waved him away. 'More discreet…the old man should take his own advice.'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Kaji walked to an area and took out his cell. 'Corax will laugh at this, good thing I have the ten mil in a separate account…'
"Hey Corax, it's me Wired…yeah it's a job but not what you think…it's babysitting…no joke…that's what I thought at first until I saw the account…uhh yeah the account number is 89876354231-7853…that was my reaction as well…that's right get their sorry asses over here, the marks are Ikari Shinji and Ayanami Rei…yeah I know…funny ain't it…yeah well tell them to keep out of the way of Section 2…I know, I know…well they may be dumb, not THAT dumb…yup, anything goes…Laterz'." The triple agent smirked. 'Those kids' butts are now covered in Kevlar…'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Asuka, Shinji, and Rei are in an elevator just going to the surface after they had been in a short sync test. The showers were barely working so they all had to take cold showers, which led to their current predicament, huddled together with Shinji in the middle.
"Do they have to air condition EVERYTHING?" The red haired pilot of Unit 02 angrily spat while secretly thankful for being held by the pilot of Unit 01.
"If it were not air conditioned it would be extremely hot inside NERV headquarters…" Rei started but a hug from Shinji silenced her thought.
"It's better not argue with Asuka…" Shinji breathed into the pilot of Unit 00's ear. Rei slightly nodded while putting her head on his shoulder. That's when the power went out and the car stopped.
"Uhh…it's not suppose to do this…" Asuka looked at Shinji nervously.
"They'll get the power back on." He held the girls closer.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Joe looked at the severed power connections and grinned as he started to fix the cut wires. 'My, my…all this just to test the "bonds of friendship" between the kids…looks like I'll have to call in a favor…he may be an asshole, but he's effective…' His smirk went down a little as he thought about a particular person, but went back into full swing as emergency power was shunted to the anti-angel defense grid and he started to manually operate the grid from his palm pilot. 'That should show the angel who's boss.'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
A bridge tech looked at her monitor and just as she turned away, it lit up and showed that the anti-angel defense grid just targeted and started shooting the ninth angel.
"SIR! THE DEFENSE GRID IS ACTIVE!" She brushed her red hair aside and started typing furiously.
"From what terminal?" The old professor looked over the techs shoulder.
"Not from a terminal…it's from an outside source, but still inside the building…" She looked confused as an old cartoon bomb that had a smilely face appeared on her monitor and a familiar voice was on the loud speakers.
"Hey boss-man, this is Joe, can you hear me?" The tech typed 'yes'.
"Good, I managed to reroute power to the defense grid and I'm sending that angel to hell. Besides after this is over I need to talk to you about who is gonna' be head of security. Joe out boss-man." The voice died and the tech stared in wonder as power and communications started to come back online, however, the lift systems was dead last on the list.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Shinji looked up and saw the lights come back on but the car still didn't move. Asuka started hitting buttons and nothing happened.
"Damn…" The red haired pilot of Unit 02 punched the wall, managing to actually dent it slightly. Asuka didn't notice the look of fear going across Shinji's face. The blue haired pilot of Unit 00 squeezed the third child to calm him down and it seemed to work.
"Acting this way is a waste of time; they will get the lift working again." Rei looked at Asuka in a calm manner.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Joe looked surprised at the small monitor as he saw the ninth angel blew up and he saw nothing but static. He smiled as the cameras came back online and he saw a melting hole in the docks as well as a devastated warehouse district. 'Well, that ought to show the hard-liners who did their job…' He smiled as he put up his palm pilot. 'The ass-hole better appreciate what I'm about to do…'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
It's been two hours and everything was back to normal, well almost normal. Kaji looked angry. 'It wasn't my fault…it was that…that ASS-HOLE!' He almost didn't see Misato but smiled as she appeared.
"Hey…what's shake'n?" He turned on the charm and when she didn't say a thing and walked by he looked annoyed.
"HEY, Earth to Misato!" He near-shouted and she turned to look at him.
"Yes?" She looked slightly annoyed.
"What's got you in a daze?" He looked genuinely concerned.
"Just a date with a hottest guy here!" She almost beamed.
"Well if that is a way of asking me out…" He looked charmingly at her as she scoffed.
"Not you…Joe Average." She said dreamily.
"Heh…everybody thinks he is some hot shit…" Kaji looked very annoyed.
"Well see-ya'." Misato left a very annoyed Kaji. He then spotted a red head and charmed her into a closet.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000A very relieved Asuka almost punched out the first person that got on the elevator. Thankfully Shinji held her close enough to where she didn't hit the Sub-Commander.
"You kids where stuck in the elevator during the entire thing?" Joe looked at the three pilots.
"Yes." The blue haired pilot of Unit 00 replied.
"Well w-we were on our way out when it happened and…" Shinji was interrupted with a dismissal wave from Joe.
"Don't worry 'bout it, the defense grid actually did the job it was suppose to, and besides, I bet you got lucky in the elevator…" Joe winked suggestively and the pilot of Unit 01 who blushed furiously.
"Get lucky?" Rei had a confused look on her face. Joe looked down as the blue haired pilot of Unit 00 didn't get his innuendo.
"He means did we have fun while during the power outage, and no we didn't, we were freezing and then it did a complete 180 and we had to take off…" Asuka was silenced by Shinji's hand and then she blushed at what she was about to say.
"Fine, fine…but be sure to make the best of it next time…" Joe had a devilish look on his face. 'Your about to get covered in Kevlar…'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Col. Matrix was fishing in a small, but reinforced, fishing boat. A call came in over the airwaves and he picked up as he lost a fish.
"Damn…what is it…really…so basically these kids need protection from?...oh…I'll call a few people…no I won't call him…I'll just call a few people…that's all we'll need is a few people…trust me…ok, be there in a few weeks, I need to make arrangements…bye." He looked around and smiled. 'So the SEELE case is reopened, time to get ready for the long haul, because it's about to get ugly.'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Misato walked down the hall and noticed Joe talking on the phone, but as soon as she approached, he closed the phone and smiled at her.
"What's up?" She cheerily looked at him.
"Just making some arrangements…besides we need a new head of security." Joe had a grin on his face that told her that he knew something.
"What kind of arrangements?" She looked confused as she leaned against a wall.
"Nothing serious, just calling up an old buddy that needed a job and he knows security. Lets just say that he'll always be watching…" The grin touched his eyes as he smirked.
"Are you on your way out?" She asked blushing.
"Actually yeah, lets hit the 'Stomping Ground', what do ya' say?" He looked at her in that disarmingly way, and had it not been for the wall, she would have fallen over.
"S-s-sure…" She blushed heavily and took his offered arm as they walked out together.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
The monoliths stood and there was a sour taste in the air.
"What happened again?" Monolith #1 had shock in its voice.
"Sub-Commander Average just destroyed the dummy-plug system." Agent Kaji stated in a calm manner.
"He should be disposed of in a timely…manner." Monolith #5 had a thoughtful tone in its voice.
"How?" The triple agent asked with a straight face.
"In any manner you see fit, just be sure to make it look like an accident." Monolith #4 had an irritated tone in its voice.
"Will do." Kaji affirmed.
"You are dismissed." Monolith #1 had no emotion in its voice. The triple agent disappeared from sight in the hologram meeting room.
"This Average is getting to be a trouble maker, good thing we have someone to do the dirty work…" Monolith #2 stated.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Hades and Anubis looked at the three teens as they exited the pyramid and headed toward the main elevator to Tyoko-3. 'How did we get to be babysittin-…' Anubis looked closely and saw a couple of bushes move. A sharp look to Hades had her prepare a special sniper rifle with a special scope. She zeroed in on the bushes till a head appeared. In an instant the head was nothing more than a bloody mess and the second head appeared to spot where it came from. As the head looked, Hades smiled as she pulled the trigger obliterating the head of the would be assassin.
"Looks like they didn't have what it takes…" Anubis had a lost in thought tone in his voice.
"More will come…" Hades stated in a grim tone.
"Well, we'll have to cover them on the way home…" Anubis had annoyance in his voice.
"It's what we're paid to do." Hades stated in a false cheer.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Kaji looked at his phone and put it away. 'No…I won't do it, but I have to do something…lets get a newbie to attempt it and let him get caught…that way to the council of fools will think that I contacted one of my contacts…it might work, but where to try…HQ is the best bet…nice and public…' The triple agent smiled in a devious way. 'I'm going to enjoy myself way too much doing this.'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
As Joe walked into work the next day he felt a knife at his back. He whipped around and kicked the feet of the would be assassin causing her to fall.
"My, my…women seem to be falling for me right and left…or just straight down." The ex-SWAT member smirked.
"I will complete my mission…" The girl starts to say, but is interrupted.
"I'm in a great mood today; normally I'd just shoot you. But today I'll let you leave with the understanding that if I ever see you again, with a deadly weapon, I'll kill you right there. Capish?" Joe just looks at her as he leaves her behind. She drops her jaw in awe. 'He could have killed me…why didn't he?'
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Misato skips into Ritsuko's office smiling. 'Who did she screw?' The good doctor had a frown on her features.
"Why so down?" The Captain looked at her with concern.
"Info on the tenth Angel, in the texts it states something about a 'Sea of Dirac', but I can't find anything on this Sea…" The good doctor looked as a tall, well built man walked into her office wearing a black dress uniform from a mercenary guild with three Medals of Honor from the United States showing more prominently amongst his other awards. And the ranking that was on his collar was gold eagles.
"I'm here to check in." He says as he hands the good doctor a piece of paper. She takes it and signs it, but as she signs it, she takes note of the name, Col. Matrix.
"Be sure to stop by housing to get your assignment." The good doctor states.
"Don't worry about that, already have an apartment here." The Col. smiles as he starts to leave.
"I am…" Misato holds out her hand to shake his.
"Captain Misato Katsuragi, born July 3, 1986, most notably was apart of the Katsuragi expedition and is the only known survivor. Joined the military at a young age and has served for three years, transferred to NERV by order of the UN and currently serves as the Director of Operations when it comes to the Angel battles." He shook her hand. Misato was speechless as she numbly shook his hand.
"How did you…" Misato starts but is interrupted by Matrix.
"I've read all the dossiers on everyone here, including yours Dr. Ritsuko Akagi. You don't want me to spill any…important…information on what you actually do here." Matrix smiled as the good doctor paled. 'He couldn't have gotten into those files…' The look on his face said otherwise.
"And if you're wondering about the 'Sea of Dirac', it's a rip in space-time that sucks what ever is on it into a pocket dimension." Matrix leaves two stunned women in the good doctor's office.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Matrix sees Joe in the corridor and stops to salute the Sub-Commander. Joe smirks and returns the salute, when the salutes were dropped the two ex-soldiers shook hands firmly.
"Are you still trying to break my hand?" Joe rubs his hand where there are red marks from the hand shake.
"I was trying to be as gentile as possible…you know what happened to me, and what unit we were apart of." Matrix smirks back as he falls in stride with the Sub-Commander.
"Yeah, yeah, I know…but still!" Joe has mock shock on his face. As soon as they turn a corner, all the mirth is gone and a serious tone is set.
"What's the intell?" Matrix had a hard look on his face.
"Well I need you to slowly start to replace the security force here, as well as upgrade the equipment. Most of the stuff here is ten years out of date, even the computers; and speaking of computers, the only new thing here is the Magi, a network of three super computers linked together to form all the functions of Tokyo-3, as well as most of the opinions of the people. I need you to specifically protect the three EVA pilots. Do what you must to keep them alive because I think SEELE is after them. Back to what I was saying, the guns barely work that the current guards carry. Make this a fortress." Joe looked like a stone face golem.
"Will do sir." Matrix smiles.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Ginger Hoffman, Bos'n Mate 1st class, USN, Retired, was in her bathroom when her cell rang. She hurried up and dried off to get it and when she picked up she heard laughing.
"Average you asshole, you know when I take my shower…uhh, sorry sir…you gotta be serious!...really…yes I still have my qualls…I still have my SEAL pin as well, you know I wouldn't lose that…so I gotta be there in two weeks with all my gear…understood sir, will see you on the flipside…bye." She looked in the mirror and frowned. 'I really am the best in my field…no choice, the Col. is counting on me.' She slowly gets dressed and leaves the apartment.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Shinji and the other two pilots walk into Misato's apartment. After all the sync tests they had to endure, they were tired. They walked to the couch and sat down heavily. Rei and Asuka snuggle up as close as they can to Shinji.
"I don't want to see another hologram of the seventh angel again…" Asuka's tired voice had anger in it.
"Don't worry, it's all over, and besides since the school was destroyed we don't have classes…" Shinji starts but stops as he felt Asuka cringe.
"That means I can't see Hikari anymore…"
"You still have us…" Rei put a hand on her cheek.
"That's right you still have us…" Shinji gently kissed the red haired pilots forehead.
"I need to go home; there are things I must attend to." Rei kissed him deeply before she left. Asuka held on a little tighter as she watched the blue-haired pilot of Unit 00 leave their residence.
"Shinji…" She looked deep into his eyes before slowly kissing him. When they had to come up for air she straddled him and kissed him again, working off his shirt. Sensing what she wanted, he unbuttoned her blouse and broke the kiss and looked at her as she smiled.
"Remember what I said…" She pressed her chest into his face and smiled as he unhooked her bra. She took off her blouse and bra to where he could have easer access; she took one of his hands and guided it toward her bare breast. She moaned as she felt his touch and started to grind her pelvis against his. His other hand went around her waist and unzipped her skirt. She smiled as he sucked on her right breast as he fondled the left one. She slowly got up and let the skirt fall off to where he could see her panties. She drew off the rest of her clothes and unzipped his pants and pulled them off. She could see the boxers and the growing appendage within. She licked her lips and pulled off the boxers. The appendage sprang out and she licked it like she was tasting it. He shivered with pleasure as she gently kissed the head of his penis and slowly put the shaft into her mouth. His hands went to her hair as she started sucking on his penis, the pleasure slowing going through his body taking away any ache he had. He felt the pressure build and his hands were again guided to her breasts. Feeling the hard nipples he slightly pinched the right one and felt her intake of breathe. She moaned in happiness as the ecstasy rolled through her, she tasted the pre-ejaculation on her tongue and stopped. The lost look on his face was gone as she lowered herself onto him, slowly going up and down on his penis. The pressure built more as the pleasure built up. Right when he thought he couldn't take it anymore, she orgasmed, screaming with joy as she laid down with Shinji still in her. Shinji started to pump till he felt the pressure and pleasure conjoin to where he spilt his seed in her. She kept him in her as she felt him release and started to move her hips causing pleasure to rip through them both. They clutched each other tightly as she rolled on top of him sitting straight up and watching his eyes screw closed in ecstasy. She closed her eyes and arched her back a little as she felt his hands squeeze her breasts, pinching both nipples and causing her to moan in pleasure. She kept his hands on her breasts as she pumped up and down feeling the pleasure and rapture take away all the soreness she had. He pumped up and down meeting her half-way feeling the pressure return and the ecstasy ensue, entrapping him in her moaning his name. She felt another slight pinch on her nipples sending her over the edge into heaven, she orgasmed and felt that he was close as well, causing her to pump faster. He like he could almost touch her soul but not quite the same as Rei where he did. He erupted in her and she kept him in place, taking it all in, not wasting any of it. He screamed her name as she came down on him still working the shaft of his penis with her vagina. They felt the pressure build again and they synced with one another, feeling the joy of the moment to be with each other. She was close to orgasming as was he, and together the screamed each others names and collapsed on one another, completely exhausted. She smiled as she felt her stomach and guided his hand over to hers as they spooned.
"Asuka…I know we didn't use protection, what if you get pregnant?" Shinji had a thoughtful tone in his voice.
"I would want to have the baby…and I know you would be a better father than Gendo was…" Asuka turned to look into his eyes and kissed him deeply.
"What about Rei?" Shinji asked, fearing the worst.
"I guess the baby would have two mommies…" She held him tightly as she buried her head into his shoulder.
"Raising a baby will take a lot of money…" Shinji looked at her seriously.
"Do you know how much we make as pilots?" She looked back at him.
"No…" He looked back confused.
"Fifty-thousand dollars every six months, guess he didn't mention that did he…I've had it stached in a savings account since I was four." She looked back into his eyes with a comforting look.
"Ok…" He looked a bit happier as he fell asleep in her arms. She smiled as she watched him sleep till she drifted off as well.
