Shinji awoke to the soft breathing of the fiery red-head leaning on his chest. He suddenly remembered in a rush, the previous night's events.
"Oh my god... I slept with her last night..." He looked around frantically for reassurance. "I am only 14 years old, what I am I doing!!" but then he looked down at asuka's sweet face, smiling for once, he knew what he was doing. All the sense poured back into him and he shook Asuka awake.
"Good morning." He whispered into her ear.
She smiled all the more. Neither was ashamed at what they had done, and they wouldn't regret it.
One morning, a few weeks after they got home from the hospital, they decided to go to school. Shinji made their lunches, making Asuka's extra special for the occasion. He didn't know how to face his friends after what had happened, but he thought it best just to keep it a secret.
As they neared the school, Kensuke and Toji joined them and began their usual rants after welcoming them both back. They didn't seem to notice the different looks on Shinji and Asuka's faces... for now anyway.
The morning went by normally, Shinji and Asuka had a minute alone before lunch. Shinji asked Asuka what she thought about telling people about their relationship, and she agreed with him that they should keep it a secret.
During lunch, they sat in their respective places and ate lunch like normal. Until Shinji noticed Asuka had a pale look to her face, and then she quickly got up and headed toward the bathroom. Hikari was a few steps behind, and Shinji followed a bit further along. He poked his head in the girls bathroom and yelled, "Asuka! Are you ok?" br
"Mmmffff" was the reply. Hikari quickly went to the door to shoo Shinji away when she realized the look on his face. Now girls are generally more perceptive about love then boys are, so Hikari caught on quite quickly. She looked back and fourth from Shinji to Asuka, then she opened her mouth to speak. Shinji had realized Hikari was catching on though and cut her off.
"Please don't tell..." he said, looking at the ground.
"I won't," Hikari said, a smile creeping on to her face.
"May I have a moment alone with her?" Shinji asked, "If you keep guard."
"Uhhh... yeah." Hikari said, unsure of what she should say to something like that. To Hikari, the whole thing was a shock. It was so sudden, and quick.
Shinji moved past Hikari to find Asuka sitting on the floor, looking rather dazed. He sat down next to her and stared at the same wall.
"You ok?" he asked.
She looked at him closely; Shinji could see something in her eyes. Was it worry? Asuka finally spoke.
"I MUST have cabbage. NOW!" she said intently.
Shinji almost fell over, but managed to regain himself.
"Cabbage? Now?"
"Yes, NOW!" she said, getting angry.
"OK then, cabbage it is!"
They left the campus and walked down the street to the closest restaurant. They walked in and Shinji ordered two cabbage salads. They sat down, getting funny looks from bystanders considering they WERE supposed to be in school.
"Remind me why you must have cabbage..." Shinji said questionably.
"I dunno..." Asuka said, sounding confused herself. "I just HAD to have cabbage all of the sudden. It's like nothing else would do, and I had to have it right then, and still must have it now."
Shinji sat back in the chair, staring out of the window, pondering the cause of these sudden happenings.
"What did you say happened during lunch?" Shinji asked as if he was trying to solve some mystery.
"I threw up...why?"
Shinji sat in deep thought for a moment... the only thing that could have caused this was... was... WAS... PREGNANCY. "Oh shit, oh shit," Shinji thought. Asuka had sensed something wrong and was giving him a suspicious look.
"Asuka... have you been having similar things to this lately, like say this past week?"
"Yah, sorta... why?" Asuka said, seeming even more puzzled then before.
"Well..." Shinji searched for the right words, but there really was only one way to say it. "I think you are pregnant." He said quietly.
"WHAT?!" she gasped.
The whole restaurant went silent, all eyes were on the couple in the corner. Shinji's face was near white when he slowly motioned for Asuka to sit down.
"How... do you know?" she asked, a little calmer now.
"I don't KNOW, but we did... and you do have all of the symptoms, I mean you have been acting different lately too." He said very unemotionally, still staring into infinity.
Asuka looked around frantically, "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god..."
Shinji wasn't taking it well either, he slid into the bench with Asuka and he held onto him tightly.
"Come to think of it..." she said "'that time of the month' never did come this month..."
"Ohhhhh no." Shinji said, knowing now that his inference was true.
"Oh my god, what are we going to do, Shinji?" Asuka looked helplessly into Shinji's eyes. He was trying to keep himself from having a severe nosebleed at the moment as could only manage. "I dunno, Asuka."
"Just one thing Shinji, don't leave me ok? Just don't leave me." Asuka whispered.
"I would never..." Shinji said as reassuringly as he could.
A week later, the symptoms persisted, and even worsened. Shinji was trying hard not to go crazy, and Asuka was very temperamental which did not help. She had random mood swings, which was making Hikari wonder.
One day, when Misato wasn't home, they were sitting on the couch watching come anime flick when Asuka said.
"Shinji, are you O.K. with this? I mean me being pregnant... you ARE going to be a father."
Shinji thought about it a moment before saying. "Asuka, I don't regret our child, I am proud of it."
The answer seemed to satisfy her well enough, when she remembered the more immediate problem.
"Shinji... don't you think we should tell Misato... before she starts realizing?" She questioned.
Shinji moved closer to her on the couch, comforting her. "Yes, as hard as it's going to be, I think we should." He said thoughtfully. "You never know what might happen to make her notice."
"Also, there is the fact that she doesn't even know that anything between us changed" Asuka said logically.
"Oooo, this is going to be hard to tell her. I think we should tell her right when she gets home." Shinji said.
