Prequel - No. 3 Asuka Langley

(Finally.I've written the third prequel!!! I hope everyone enjoys it!)

Shinji Ikari and Asuka Langley were fighting again. "No, it's your turn to wash the dishes
Shinji!!! Misato!!!" yelled Asuka.

"I'm sorry." said Shinji. He obediently did his chores.

Misato sighed. She was in deep thought about Rei Ayanami. This second, Rei was at the
NERV Headquarters being operated on now. She knew she should be alongside Rei and
the scientists, but everyone insisted on her taking care of Shinji and Asuka and staying at
home for a day.

"Misato!!!" Misato closed her eyes. Maybe she should have went to work today.

It was 5 in the morning and Asuka got up. She was worrying about Rei, although she
wouldn't admit it of course. She could not sleep all night. Asuka walked past Misatos'
room to the bathroom. Huh? Misato wasn't in her room.

Asuka peeked into Shinjis' room. She wanted to ask him if he knew where Misato had
went. She saw him lying on his arms with his eyes open staring at the ceiling.

"He's probably thinking of Rei." thought Asuka angrily and jealously.

Asuka blushed. She then composed herself and walked into Shinjis' room. "So Shinji,
have you noticed that Misato is gone?" Asuka said loudly. She sat on his bed.

"Ahh!," Shinji freaked out. "Asuka what are you doing? And yes, I know Misato went to
the NERV HQ at about 4 am,"

Asuka looked carefully at Shinji. His cheeks were going a shade of red. She kinda liked
him when he blushed, he looked so vulnerable and cute.

"WHAT? Shinji Ikari.cute?! Oh my gosh." She ran out of Shinjis' room.

By the time Misato got to the NERV HQ, the operation was finished. Rei had to rest, and
no one was able to see her.except Misato.

She walked into where Rei was resting. Rei looked fine, but it looked like she had come
down with a fever. She kept on tossing and turning in her sleep. But Misato looked at Rei
in a different way. Rei looked more vibrant, more like a person. She smiled.

~~~~

"So it's a success?! Rei's okay??" said Shinji.

Misato was happy "Yup! Tomorrow Rei is able to pilot an EVA again!"

Asuka was sitting at one side. "Hmph, Rei this, Rei that how come she's in the center of
attention and not me?"

She looked at Shinji. Shinji looked back. They were locked in a gaze.but it was a soft
sweet one.

She felt something deep inside her heart. "What am I feeling.what is this.
Shinji.maybe I've wanted you."

He looked away. As soon as he did, he knew in his heart that he had cared for Asuka
through everything.

She stood up and ran into her room and closed her door. "You're just running again,
Asuka.you're running away from your feelings again."

Do I love Shinji? Is that this feeling? Does he feel the same way?
