The few days together seemed to be a blur to Ikari Shinji as he and his lovely co-pilot trained for their upcoming battle against the angel. Nights were spent talking about the things they liked, disliked and so on while during the days, they would practice their routine, which was coming along a lot better. Then the worst possible scenario happened to Shinji.
He and his female counterpart were left alone for the night...no supervision...no Misato...alone...
Shinji sweated nervously as he heard the Soryu Asuka Langley singing and a splash of water every so often. He directed all his will power towards the television in front of him instead of her sweet voice radiating from the bathroom but the images from the idiot box never got to his brain since it was on hiatus (A/N: My new word!^_^). He sighed and ran a hand through his dark hair, slinking from the couch to the floor with a loud 'thud!'. She was always on his mind lately and he knew that his mild infatuation had grown stronger lately. With another sigh he began banging his head against the back of the couch, hoping that a little jump-start would fix his brain problems. He was too into his head banging (A/N: heh...) that he never noticed a certain redhead appear from the bathroom and was now standing next to him, clad only in a pink towel and another one wrapped around her hair to soak some of the water from it.
"What are you doing, dummkopf?" Shinji's ears perked up and he looked up at Asuka, surprised to see her grinning, and laughed nervously.
"Um...nothing, I was just trying to...uh...think!" 'That...was lame.' He thought as she raised a sleek eyebrow at him but shrugged it off.
"When are you going to bed?" she called from their bedroom, rustling being heard from the room and Shinji assumed she was looking for her pajamas.
He turned back to look at the TV, which now held a commercial of a woman who appeared to be naked and screaming in ecstasy while shampooing her hair. Shinji blushed profusely and fumbled with the remote before catching it and pressing the off button. He sighed and the regular color of his face returned. "I don't know yet, I was thinking of going to the movie store around the corner and renting some movies maybe." He picked himself up off the floor just as Asuka emerged from the room, dressed in a large, low cut, yellow T-shirt and blue short-shorts.
She walked over to him and took the remote from his hands as he stared open- mouthed at her and she smirked. "Like what you see?" she asked and brought at hand up to his chin, using her index finger to push his jaw up, promptly closing his mouth. She smiled deviously at him and flopped onto the couch, amused as he stared at where she was just a few minutes ago. "Pick up a couple and I'll watch them with you, is that okay?" when she didn't receive an answer, she lifted her right foot and poked him in the arm with her sock- covered foot.
When he finally realized that the poking in his arm wouldn't stop, he looked at the limb and found a foot probing the muscles. He followed the foot to slender legs that ran up to thighs, hidden from his eyes by blue shorts, then up a slender, fit body to the beautiful face of his crush. He jumped back, startled at how fast she moved and bumped into the TV, nearly making it fall. He stuttered a moment (A/N: you know when Asuka first goes to his school and she says Gutten Morgen to him and he goes Gngngh or something like that. Well that what he did.) before composing himself enough to stand without support from the TV. "W-what did you say, Asuka?"
She giggled at him before bringing the foot that she had used for poking him with down and crossing it over her other one, her arms thrown over the back of the couch to leave her in a very seductive position in the eyes of The Third Child. "I asked you if it was alright if I could watch the movies you're going to rent with you." She smiled softly at him and he felt himself blush lightly.
He brushed off some imaginary dust to avert his eyes from her and cleared his constricting throat. "Um...sure. Got anything in mind?"
She shook her head and lazily covered her mouth as she yawned. "Nope. Just surprise me."
~*~
And surprise her he did. She was immensely shocked when he had gotten a romance movie and a horror movie. She thought he was the type of guy to love action and sit on the edge of his seat but, then again, he may have just done it for her. At that thought, she smiled sweetly at the figure that was popping the video in the player. She watched him stand up, smiling proudly at the box that now showed them the previews and turned to her, smiling back at her. He picked a bowl of popcorn off the top of the TV and turned the lights off then walked over and sat beside her on the couch. He placed the bowl of popcorn in his lap, fast-forwarding the previews to the movie and nearly jumped out of his socks when the German girl leaned over and grabbed a handful of popcorn with one hand and the remote with the other, pausing the movie.
She turned to him and smiled at his shocked face. "Why don't you go get changed, that way when we're finished, we can go to bed right away." She reasoned with him and placed a piece of popcorn in her mouth.
He nodded wordlessly and left to his room to change. When he got back, he found her lying down on the couch, her feet dangling off one side of the couch and her head sideways on a pillow. He walked over to her and placed his hands on his hips, frowning playfully down at her. "And where am I supposed to sit?"
She merely lifted the top part of her body and removed the pillow, patting the space where her head once laid.
Totally unaware of her plan, Shinji sat down on the couch she gave him and was surprised when she placed the pillow on his lap and her head on the pillow. His back shot up straight and she un-paused the movie, unaware of his shock. Five minutes into the movie, he finally loosened up and sighed, his heart returning to its normal pace. He stared down at the beautiful girl in his lap before raising an uncertain hand and running in through her vibrant hair. She stiffened at the sudden contact for a moment but then relaxed and snuggled into his lap further. His smile grew as he looked up at the screen, his hand continuing its loving caress.
~*~
"Mph! No, not here, someone might see us!" a voice rang out in one of the many elevators of NERV.
"No one's around, who'll see us?" a flirty masculine voice replied.
"Someone!" Captain Katsuragi Misato tried to shove the figure away from her but deep down she knew she wasn't trying with all her might.
Kaji Ryouji didn't answer to this, at least verbally that is. Instead, he firmly clamped his mouth over hers, quieting her refusals.
The woman moaned and closed her eyes for a moment then opened them slightly to watch the counter at the top of the doorway tick off the floors. 'Please hurry, I don't think I'll last much longer!' As if answering her pleas, the elevator 'dinged' and she backed away from Ryouji and out of the elevator, tucking in her shirt while fixing her hair. "Don't ever do that again, Kaji. It's over between us, has been for a long time." She scorned him.
The longhaired man grinned boyishly at her. "But your lips didn't complain. Tell me Katsuragi, which should I trust, your lips...or your words?" before she could answer, the elevator 'dinged' again and the doors closed on him as he bowed to her, still grinning.
She glared at the steel doors in front of her, panting slightly. How dare he? How dare he bring forth the feelings she had long ago buried away, at what she had hoped for good.
'But you still love him...'
And with that thought, she threw the documents she had been holding at the doors along with an angry cry.
~*~
"Here you go." Misato looked up to see her old time friend, Akagi Ritsuko beside her as she placed a cup of coffee on the table.
"Thanks." The purple-haired woman picked the cup and blew into it, attempting to cool it down.
"So, what is it? Work or a man or both?" The blonde asked as she sat down in a chair opposite of Misato.
The woman smiled somewhat. "Heh heh, something like that." She brought the cup to her lips and sipped it.
"Hm...still in love huh?" Ritsuko was answered by Misato spilling the contents of her mouth onto the floor.
"Phf! That's ridiculous! Who'd want that over-sexed idiot anyway?!" Misato yelled, whipping her mouth with the sleeve of her red jacket.
"I meant he may still love you. Did I scare you?" The doctor smirked at her, leaning back in her chair.
Misato glared at her. "OoOoh I'll show you scary..." she mumbled before sipping her coffee again.
"You're only proving my hypotheses. Why don't you just got with your feelings?"
Misato sighed and her head flopped back. "I may have been just a kid but getting together with him was the dumbest thing I ever did." She took a swing of coffee before placing it back onto the dark wood table. "Aw well, better get back to work. Tomorrow's D-day you know."
~*~
"All system's go. EVAs are ready." Ibuki Maya called from her station at the controls to the Commanders present and Captain Katsuragi.
"Shinji, Asuka! You ready?" Misato asked over the COM link with the two pilots.
"Roger!" they answered simultaneously.
Asuka turned to the COM link established with Shinji and smirked. "Just remember the moves, Shinji."
The pilot of Unit-01 nodded at her. "We'll be done in sixty-two seconds (A/N: is that right?)." the two EVAs were launched and the count down had begun. When they reached the top, the sides of two large buildings opened up to reveal their rifles, which they quickly grabbed. They split up, running on either side of the Angel, shooting away until Asuka was close enough and grabbed her Progressive Knife, cutting the Angel into two parts which regenerated itself into two right away. Units 01 and 02 met up on the other side of the Angels and back flipped many times, evading the attacks of the enemy, and landed on a small platform, pressing a switch which activated a shield. The barrier gave them a moment to gain their breath but only a moment because the steel was melted seconds later by the Angels. The fighters rolled out of the way as one of the Angels cut the shield in half, exposing them.
Shinji turned to look at Asuka's window just as she turned to him and they smirked at each other. With a quick nod, their EVAs charged at the two Angels. An uppercut to where the gut would be and a high kick later, the Angels re-merged into one and the pilots leapt into the air and came crashing down upon the Angel, right where it's red orb laid (A/N: What's that called?) and the Angel slid backwards from the force all the way to the mountains.
From NERV headquarters, Misato and the rest watched with anxious eyes, trying to see through the smoke of the explosion. When the smoke cleared enough, a picture of Unit-02 on top of 01 appeared. Captain Misato sweatdropped at what looked like Shinji's EVA holding the other.
"Both EVAs are okay." Maya's voice broke the silence.
Ritsuko giggled as Misato rubbed her temples. "Guess baby-sitting isn't like you thought, ne Misato?"

Author's Notes: So, how was that for a chapter? Fluff and action -though not good action- all in one.
