Chapter XV: Warmth
...........................


Kaworu:

I hear the jingle of keys and a few moments later I hear it again, much closer this time. The door opens and I'm much more than surprised to see Shinji. He's standing out in the hall with a man on each side of him.

The man who opened the door to my cell stretches out his arm as I rise from my seat, displaying his open palm in a gesture for me to stop, Just wait there, buddy. We'll have you're boyfriend ready in just a minute. There's disgust in the word boyfriend, but I don't care. I just watch as Shinji's ordered to undress. He does so without question. They toss him a handful of clothes unexpectedly and they fall to the floor. He's then ordered to get dressed. He calmly complies, bending and lifting the clothes. They're exactly like the ones I'm wearing.

Come on, get over here. The man near me says, speaking to Shinji, who looks up. The moment his eyes fall upon me he's smiling, rushing forward. The guards who'd been standing on either side of him are shocked and hurry after him.

Shinji brushes passed the man in the doorway and our lips meet in an instant, leaving the guards to simply stare on.

Finally, one of them speaks up, And with that the doors closed and locked and we're left alone.

Shinji angles his head and his mouth opens in that familiar way. My tongue dives in without hesitation. However, I'm weak and though I still have plenty of breath, my knees give out. I can tell Shinji's also weak, but not nearly like myself, and he manages to hold me in his arms long enough to help me sit on the bed.

He then sits beside me, My father finally let me come stay with you. He explains through a beaming smile.

I can't help but smile in return,

He thinks you'll cooperate better with me here, plus he wants to do some tests on me too I think. He lifts his hand to my cheek and tenderly rubs down and around to the back of my neck. Gently, he pulls me forward and our mouths meet again in the same way. The kiss lasts much longer this time, and when we part, it's due to lack of breath.

Shinji's fingers go to the buttons of my shirt, but I stop him, I don't think I can.

He looks at me with concern in his eyes, Are you hurt?

I shrug, I'm weak.

You're not eating? He asks, continuing his unbuttoning. I shake my head as he finishes, pushing my shirt open and back. He places his warm hands on me, his fingers caressing my defined ribs and sunken stomach.

They hurt you? He asks, his touch like a butterfly's wing over the bruises on my upper arms.

I shrug again, The guards can be a bit rough.

He leans forward, kissing the violet splotches on my white skin ever-so-carefully. His hands then trail down the length of my arms to my wrists, inspecting the bruised, broken, scabbed flesh due to my restraints.

I take his hands in mine, I want to feel you against me. I whisper.

He smiles, rising to his feet and easily removing his clothes. I quickly take note of his thinness as well as the cuts adorning his arms and thighs, but I say nothing of it. I understand completely. Once naked, he moves close, untying the drawstring to my pants. I lean to the right and then to the left and then he's pulling them down. Neither my shirt or pants can be completely removed though because of my bindings.

We lie beside one another atop the blanket on the hard, metal bed. There's really only room for one, but we manage. We use the same blanket we're lying upon to cover with. Shinji wraps his arms around me, our legs intertwined. His warmth is utterly amazing and I don't know how I survived so long without it. Instantly I feel my cool flesh warming and my stomach growls.

Shinji sniffs and I realize his eyes are full of tears, He asks through a smile.

I nod, then, after a few moments, ask, Why are you crying?

He moves closer, if that's possible, I'm just so happy. I missed you so much.

I smile wide, my hands moving to the rough, scabbed lines on his arms, Are these for me?

He nods, and I ask, Did they help at all with the pain?

He shrugs, A little.

My hands move to his ribs and down to his sunken stomach, lingering there, Also for me?

He nods again, But it looks like you didn't eat at all. Kami, my Angel's become a skeleton. He whispers, his hands moving to my sharp hip bones, resting there like they're handles as he moves even closer.

I sigh, resting my forehead against his chest, I couldn't sleep either... Now, I'm so tired.

He wraps his arms around me again, shifting slightly so that I'm more comfortable, I only managed by sleeping with Misato. Every night I pretended she was you.

I chuckle, My Shinji... Minutes pass and a sleepiness like I've never felt before overcomes me. Seconds later I'm slipping into a dreamless sleep in the arms of my lover, and it's pure bliss.

Overhead in the corner, the camera, with its watchful eye, records one of the happiest moments of my life.

Gendo Ikari:

Sir, there's some activity in the Angel's cell.

I nod and rise from my seat, walking out from behind my desk and out of my office. There are a number of scientists gathered around the live feed monitor as I approach. They all make way, moving aside so that I may take a look.

Shinji's undressing and then undresses the Angel. I think for a moment that I'm about to witness a sex act, however, it turns out they only intend on sleeping. Still, it's the most interesting thing we have seen from this Angel and I smirk. This was a good decision after all.

Sir, should we prepare for testing on both subjects?

No. Let them get their rest, they'll need it. Tomorrow morning we'll begin. I push my glasses up on my nose and glance down again at the monitor. My son and an Angel, how truly baffling.

...........................


Shinji:

I'm more than a little worried as Kaworu suddenly slips into unconsciousness, but he had said that he couldn't sleep before. I smile, brush his silvery locks from his face, careful not to disturb him. It's unnaturally cold in this little room, and I pull the blanket tighter around us.

He's so thin and so exhausted. I know he wanted me earlier, but he's so weak. My eyes water. I want our bodies joined so desperately. It pains me to think that my own father would have my lover weakened so, enabling him to even be with me. Hate churns in my stomach, a hate that's always been there. It doesn't upset me though or cause my tears to worsen. I know this hate. It's like an old friend visiting again, and it doesn't surprise me at all.

The silence is interrupted and I listen as the noises grow closer. One of the guards opens the door and a young woman enters with two trays balanced in her arms. She blushes at the sight of us in bed and quickly sets the trays down on the floor. She hurries out and I glance at the guard whose expression reads disgust as he closes the door.

My gaze now moves to the trays left on the floor. Two identical meals. Some sort of egg dish. The plates are heaping with the delicious smelling food, and suddenly, I'm famished. I pull from Kaworu's arms and pull my clothes on in defense of the cold. I then return to the bed, resting a hand against my lover's cheek, I whisper. No response. I lean close and lick across his lips, Kaworu, wake up.

I watch as his eyeballs shift under their lids. Red peeks out at me as they crack open and he begins blinking into wakefulness, He asks, confused.

I take hold of his hands and pull gently, Come on, sit up. He looks at me questioningly, but doesn't argue. Once he's sitting up, I help him pull his clothes back on. I then grab the single blanket and wrap it about his shivering body.

I take a plate from one of the trays and place it in his lap, Time to eat breakfast. His lips crack into a smile and he nods. I break his chopsticks apart and hand them over before grabbing my own plate.

The food is just as delicious as it smells. Within the tasty egg is fried Salmon and it brings me to life as it settles in my stomach. I feel energy and strength returning almost at once. Tall glasses of juice are provided and I gulp hungrily at it, handing Kaworu his glass when he desires a sip.

Soon enough our plates are empty and we're back in bed. My body serves as the only heat source as we cling to one another. Even in such a horrible place, comfort embraces us. Simply being together is a blessing. We simply lie together until lunch is served. Tofu steaks with spring onions and mixed salad leaves. My father hadn't been lying when he'd said we'd be well fed. Our plates are heaping and our glasses full, this time with tea. We eat every bit of it, our stomachs rejoicing. Again, we return to bed. It's almost as if our bodies are taking in all that they had been missing during our separation.

Dinner arrives, this time a lovely dark-skinned woman serving us, Well, look at you! She exclaims as she steps further into the room than necessary. I notice her accent is a bit strange.

She pushes our earlier trays aside with her foot as she sets the two new ones down. My mouth waters at the sight, golden marinated Mackerel, mixed rice, and green and yellow layered cakes, and again, ample servings of each dish.

The woman then retrieves the two empty trays, My name's Candice. I guess you're Mr. Ikari's son, huh? Shinji, am I right?

She's so forward and I'm unprepared for kindness here. So, instead of replying, I end up simply staring up at her.

She smiles, a wide, toothy smile, Don't worry. I'm not like these goons. She says, gesturing to the guard behind her.

Said guard scoffs, That's enough, Candice. You've served their meals, now come on.

Her eyebrows draw together in anger as she glances his way, Least I can do is be polite. She growls, turning back to me, Well, guess I best be going. Don't want the boss getting mad at me for talking to you guys. See you later, Angel. And with that she's turning away, heading out the door.

I quickly sit up, Thank... Thank you! I call out as the door slams closed. I hope she heard me. I feel Kaworu moving against me as he sits up as well, his stomach growling.

I glance at him, my lips instantly pulling into a smile, She's nice.

He nods, Yes, she's one of the few here whose been kind to me.

I let it remain at that, preferring not to talk about cruelty and pain. Instead, I reach for our trays, pulling them close and lifting the plates. It doesn't take long for us to eat, our dishes clear of food, our glasses empty.

Why is it so cold in here? I ask as I organize the trays and their contents, pushing them into a corner.

Kaworu shrugs, Germs and such thrive in warm climate, perhaps it's an attempt at keeping everything clean and sterile.

I shiver and hurry back to the slight warmth the blanket provides. We're still naked, having left our clothes off as we began dinner. Kaworu's skin isn't nearly as cold as it was when I first arrived, still, I can't help but shiver against him.

I can't stand it. Next time someone comes in here, I'm going to ask if something can be done about this cold. I whisper, wrapping my limbs about my lover.

Am I too cold for you? Kaworu asks, concerned.

I quickly shake my head, No. Never. My answer is definite and almost stern and he smiles at me.

Warm this cold flesh, Shinji. He whispers, licking the shell of my ear.

I shiver again, not from the cold though. There's instantly a stirring in my nether regions and I gasp, Are you sure? You're not too weak?

He shrugs, Perhaps, not nearly like I was, but then, maybe you can be on top. The glint in his eyes is lustful and it alone nearly causes me to moan. I lean over him, pressing my lips to his, tasting our recent meal. His mouth opens wide and I dive in, memorizing again what I already know by heart. I lean over more, shifting my leg over him so that I'm straddling him.

I breathe, resting my head against his chest, I love you so much it hurts inside.

His voice is just as breathy, I know, I know.

I feel him stiffen against me and I make a sound in my throat, adjusting so that our erections meet. He groans and rolls his head back. I take advantage of the moment and place sloppy kisses to his neck, trailing down to his chest. His nipples are hard nubs against my lips and I lavish affection upon each.

Kaworu moans and pushes his hips against me. If I dally much longer he'll be begging me to hurry, but that's not what I want. I want to please him and give him what he wants. I move back up, our groins meeting again, and I stop. We don't have any lubricant. I lean so that my back is curved and I have easy access to my entrance. Kaworu's watching as I finger myself, stretching my opening to accommodate my lover.

He smiles and reaches out to touch my face, I love you the most right now, like this.

I feel the blush rise to my cheeks and I smile in return as I continue my task. I bite my lip, not quite trusting myself, but I know Kaworu won't feel any pain, and any I feel will be worth it to give him pleasure. I position his throbbing hard on and ever so slowly lower myself. I try to keep relaxed, and eventually, I'm completely filled and panting.

Opening my eyes, I see that Kaworu's hands are in fists. If they weren't bound, I can imagine that they'd be gripping the blanket. His chest is rising and falling and his eyes are closed, squeezed shut.

I feel adjusted, so I use my thighs to lift myself only to lower myself again, long slow thrusts. I angle my hips in slightly different positions and then I find it, that place deep inside, and I moan, my hands holding Kaworu's handle-like hips. In just a few short minutes, the pace has picked up to short, quick thrusts. Kaworu's groaning and writhing beneath me, and I get the feeling that he's going to come soon. Just a little more...

Then I feel his hands on my aching hard on and the world does a somersault. Seconds later he comes, white-hot and deep within me. Soon after I'm coming, making a mess of his stomach. I'm exhausted and breathing hard, I move to lie beside him.

He turns his head and smiles wide at me, Thank you.

I chuckle, placing a chaste kiss upon his lips, Any time. We pull the blanket around us and hold one another as our eyes slip closed. I'm not sure, but I get the feeling that it's night out.

It's as if Kaworu hears my thoughts, Nn... Bedtime. He says groggily.

I nod, though he doesn't see it. Ten minutes later we're both fast asleep, dreaming of one another, warmth flooding our veins as we embrace.

And overhead in the corner, a camera, with its watchful eye, records everything without my knowledge.

Gendo Ikari:

I enter the main lab right on time, as usual. My suit is clean, straight, and perfect, my coat spotless. I walk passed my employees with my chin up, not even thinking about the action. It's simply instinct, my own smug attitude.

I enter my office, and just as I finish putting away my briefcase, a young woman enters, Sir, there's some interesting video feed from last night.

I nod and let her leave. I remain calm and take my time as I approach the few doctors gathered about a small TV/VCR in one. Noticing my arrival, one of them presses play and images flood the screen. My eyes go wide behind my glasses, but I quickly calm and mask my initial surprise. It seems my son and the Angel had sex last night. I watch in disgust at the way their bodies join and move together. Just disgusting. With a simple hand gesture, the tape is stopped and the screen goes black.

They've obviously gotten their rest. Begin preparations for testing. My order is simple and direct and at once the room is buzzing.
