Shinji entered his home, Misato gave him another dirty glare. Asuka wanted to jump him and keep him all to herself. Shinji wanted people to know that he and Rei hadn't had sex yet. Rei wanted time to speed up so she could have dinner with Shinji. Misato wanted another can of Yebisu but didn't want to get up. Pen-pen wanted to take a nap.
Shinji took a shower and cleaned himself up, wanting to look good. He even made sure to brush his teeth and fix his hair. Though he wasn't really nervous about having dinner with her. Shinji was more at ease and relaxed. The weather seemed to be changing, winter was right on top of them. Shinji made sure to dress for this as well.
Winter never really bothered Shinji, it was good relaxing weather, a chance to get warm, feel at ease and watch as the snow fall.
He exited the apartment and began walking down the snow covered streets. Not a thought popped into his head. It was indescribable peace. Shinji didn't even focus on where he was walking to, he just walked there.
Upon arriving at Rei's apartment complex he made his way until he got to the front of a door marked with the numbers '402'. He smiled as he realized what he promised to Rei. The third child entered the apartment.
"Hello, Rei?" he called out.
He was immediately greeted by a smiling blue haired girl. Rei was wearing a warm tan jacket and jeans. The weather may be cold but it was nowhere near cold enough to bury one's self in a heap of clothes. But then again it never did get that cold.
"Shinji" Rei said softly.
"Are you ready?" he asked her.
Rei shook her head yes.
He put out his hand and she took it and the two began walking. They enjoyed each others company, their relationship was close, caring, understanding and loving. Upon reflection of their relationship Shinji found himself smiling as he remembered how they acted around each other when they first met. She was so mysterious and exotic, a reason which contributed greatly to why he found himself drawn to her in the first place. And those eyes...beautiful red eyes that seemed to pierce right through him and deep into his soul. He soon found himself smiling unknowingly. Shinji looked at Rei, she too was smiling.
The couple soon came upon the cafe where Shinji had planned to take Rei. They analyzed the room quickly and soon found a table to sit at.
The atmosphere was good, soft, warm and comfortable.
"This is nice" Rei commented.
"Yeah" Shinji replied.
A waitress soon approached them.
"Hello, I will be your waitress for this evening, may I get you something to drink?" the waitress asked.
"I'll have tea" Shinji answered.
"Tea for me as well" Rei said.
"Okay I will be right back with your order, please take a moment to look through our menu" and with that the waitress was gone.
Fifteen minutes later Shinji and Rei were busy enjoying there meal.
The restaurant was quiet. People began to filter out of the room. Through the glass, snowflakes were seen still coming down.
Shinji glared out the windows.
"I think you should come home with me tonight Rei" he said calmly.
She just looked at him, awaiting his reason.
"It's still snowing and your apartment doesn't have any heating fixtures, I'm sure Misato won't care" he told her.
Rei just looked at him and smiled.
When they were done eating Shinji paid the bill and they began walking back to Shinji's apartment.
"I don't want to impose" Rei said after some silence of them walking.
"Your so sweet Rei" and he kissed her on the head. "Don't worry your not imposing, your pretty much apart of the family now" he said with a laugh. Rei gave him a sincere smile.
Shinji and Rei walked into the apartment.
"I'm home and I brought Rei!" he shouted.
"And I was just starting to get worried!" Misato said in what appeared mad but was actually a good tone.
"So Wondergirl, you staying the night?" Asuka asked.
"Yes" she answered.
"You can go ahead and sleep with Shinji" Misato remarked.
"What you can't just let them sleep together, not in the same bed!" Asuka protested.
"Why not, I'm sure everything will be fine, right Shinji?" Misato asked.
"Y-yeah" he coughed up.
Asuka tried not to let it get to her.
"Why don't we go to my room?" Shinji suggested. And with that Shinji took Rei to his room to be alone. Asuka just watched as Misato let this happen.
Rei stretched and yawned.
"Sleepy?" he asked her.
"A little" she replied.
She sat next to him on his bed.
Shinji took his index finger and began to poke at Rei's nose, teasing her a little.
Rei replied by catching his finger in her mouth, holding her lips down tightly. And avoiding to use her teeth. He began poking at her cheek with the other finger. She released his finger.
Shinji began to try to tickle Rei.
"S-stop!" she said with a big smile across her face.
"But it's so fun!" he replied.
When it was finally over, Rei buried her face into his chest. He placed a kiss on the top of her head
"You want to go to bed?" he asked her.
"Yeah" she answered.
They began to undress.
Thats when Shinji realized that Rei likes to sleep nude. A nosebleed followed as he couldn't take his eyes off of her.
Rei lay under a blanket. Shinji's arms around her. Before they fell asleep they enjoyed a nice long session of kissing.
"Rei...let's run away one day" he said. "Just us" he added.
"I love you" came her shy words.
"I love you too" he replied.
They shared on last kiss until they fell asleep. Both snuggled up close to each other. Rei enjoying the feeling of his embrace and Shinji resting his hand on her soft naked back.
