Guess who's still writing? That's right! I haven't forgotten to write my story. I don't have anything to say really… except sorry… it takes me so long to write chapters. ANYWAY, I'll just start writing. Right now. I'm just going to write. The story is what I'm writing.

Voice: SHUT UP AND WRITE!

Ehh, ok… sorry…

Shinji opens his eyes, waking from his peaceful slumber. Rubbing his eyes, he sits up. It's been nearly a week since he and Asuka had found each other's love.

Shinji: (Thinking) sigh… Another day of school… I wonder what I should make for breakfast?

Shinji stands, and heads to the bathroom to take his shower. Reaching the door, he swears he could hear the sound of running water. Curious, he opens the door…

SMACK!

Asuka: (Screaming) OUT YOU HENTAI! HOW DARE YOU!

Shinji: (Rubbing his cheek, his nose a little red) Wow… Asuka got up before me. (Thinking) Even though she was behind the curtain… Wow! She looks… Yeesh, best not to think about it.

Perhaps… opening the door wasn't a wise decision. (Shinji thought)

Being temporarily rejected from the cleanliness (That's how the spell check spelt it!) of the bathroom, he decides to make breakfast while he waits for Asuka to finish.

Shinji: (Talking to himself) Hmm… I wonder what I should make? Lets see here… (Pulling a Cookbook out of a cabinet, flipping through the pages) Hmm… Um. Ah here. An Omelet should be good. While Shinji is cooking, Asuka thinks to herself.

Asuka: (Thinking) How dare he! Walking in here like that! Hmph! Hentai… Still. The way he stared at me… it… surprised me.

Shinji: Asuka! Misato! Breakfast is ready!

Asuka: (Shutting off the water) Hmph… that Hentai. He makes me feel… happy. (Stepping out of the bathroom and into her room.) I wonder what Shinji made for breakfast… Whatever it is, it smells great.

Stepping out of her room, she walks into the kitchen, getting a great smell of what Shinji has made.

Shinji: (Blushing) (Nervous) Um, hi Asuka… Uh, (Quietly) lets see-e its, (Out loud)

G-Guten Mor-rgen, Asuka-chan.

Asuka: Are you sorry for what you did this morning?

Shinji: (Still nervous) Y-Yes, my Asuka-chan… (Thinking) Uhh… 'My' Asuka-chan? I wonder what she'll think of that.

Asuka: (Now smiling) Hmph, It's ok Shinji-kun. Guten Morgen.

Asuka stands up and walks over to Shinji. Still smiling, she gives him a hug.

Shinji: (Thinking) Wow… she didn't say anything… she's more comfortable about this than I am… heh… She's the best.

Shinji starts setting plates with an Omelet on each, on the table. Misato walks, well, drags herself groggily into the kitchen, and sits down at the table. Shinji, seeing how tired Misato is, decides to grab her a Yebisu for her. Shinji hands the beer to Misato, but Asuka immediately takes it away.

Asuka: (Annoyed) Don't encourage her Shinji-kun, please. She needs to get over this whole beer thing.

Misato: (Drowsy) But…

Shinji: (Confused) Uh… (Nodding) Sure, Asuka-chan, if you say so… sorry Misato, no beer.

Opening the fridge, Shinji pulls out, well, dumps out all of the Yebisu, and, with Misato reaching out in a futile attempt to reach it, and walks into his room to hide it.

Misato: (Screaming) You just want it for yourself! (Pouting) (Quietly) You guys are so cruel…

Re-entering the kitchen, he grabs a big box from under the sink, then opens Pen-pen's freezer, stirring the sleeping form from his sleep. Opening a panel next to the wall, he pulls out 4 bottles of Whiskey, 3 bottles of Rum, 7-6 packs of Yebisu, and some strange liquid that looked a lot like something Alcoholic, and a few "How to Prepare the Ultimate Drinking Party!" books.

Asuka stands from the table, gives Shinji a quick kiss on the cheek, mutters a quiet thanks into his ear, then helps Shinji hide the box. Misato, still sober, starts to aimlessly poke and torture the food on her plate, nibbling on it a bit. Shinji, blushing from the kiss, sits down and smiles as he watches Asuka eat and Misato pout.

Asuka: (Thinking) Shinji won't stop staring at me… Is there a problem…? Is there something on my face? He's blushing… What is his Hentai brain thinking!

Shinji: (Turns his attention to Misato) Um, Misato, is my cooking that bad?

Misato: (Still poking her food) Huh…? Um, if I say no… (Quickly) could I have some beer?

Shinji: (Mumbling) sigh… You're hopeless…

Hearing this, Asuka leans over, really, really close to Shinji. Turning his head, she faces him, their faces nearly touching. Shinji, being himself, starts to blush a deep, deep red.

Asuka: Don't worry Shinji-kun… Your cooking is great. (In his ear) Don't let Misato get you down… (Smiling and winking) She's jealous.

Misato, hearing that comment, chokes on the little food she has in her mouth. Her eyes wide, crying, and hitting her chest, she looks for something to wash it down with. Finding Asuka's full glass of milk, she fumbles with it for a second, and then downs it in 3 gulps. Breathing a sigh of relief, she immediately turns to Asuka. She opened her mouth to say something, but stopped when she saw Shinji stand up, pushed his chair in, and walk toward the door. Asuka, being a little worried she said something wrong, ran after Shinji.

Asuka: Shinji! Wait up!

Asuka yelled, right when she opened the door.

Misato: Asuka, Shinji! You have-! (Alone) sigh, you have school today.

She slides out the room turning to set up for a mad dash to the elevator. Without looking, she ran as fast as she could to the elevator. About half way there, she crashed into something. Opening her eyes, she sees Shinji lying on the ground, with a goofy smile on his face. After recovering from the fall, she tries to stand up, but finds that she can't move. Again, she tries to pry herself free. After many tries to get up, Asuka gets a little tired from trying to hard. Looking back in defeat, she notices that its SHINJI'S ARM wrapped around her waist. Blushing like crazy, both Shinji and Asuka look at each other in their awkward position. Slowly, their mouths start to get closer, and closer, and closer, until… SLAP! Asuka slaps Shinji with only half her strength, (Which is still a lot of pain!) not wanting to kill him, but freak him out. Shinji's head is now facing the outside wall of the apartments. Shinji slowly turns his head to face Asuka. Asuka is surprised… He's smiling.

Shinji: (Smiling) Ouch. What did you do that for? I thought you and I were…

Asuka: Shut up and take me to the park. (Winking) It's uncomfortable down here. Oh, don't get me wrong, you make a nice, cute little body pillow, but it's cold here.

Shinji: (Blushing)(A/N: and "Answer-less") Asuka, I-

Asuka: (Smiling/Demanding) Park now! (Patting Shinji's chest playfully) Let go of me and take me to the park, (Pouting) please…

Shinji: (Sighing in defeat) Ok, Asuka, we'll go to the park.

Releasing Asuka, she stands up, and walks into the elevator. Shinji, following behind her, (A/N: and in a daring move P) puts an arm around her waste, while they're waiting to reach the bottom floor. As the door opens, they head outside, walking in the direction of the park. Halfway to the park, Shinji speaks.

Shinji: I can't help but think we've forgotten something…

Asuka: (Lightly) It's probably nothing.

Back at the apartment… Misato is sprawled out over the floor. She found where Shinji stashed "her" newly dubbed, "Yebbs" (A/N: LOL! Go ahead, I dare ya, guess what that is. LOL!), and drank all of it.

Misato: (Drooling) Hiccup C-can't find that-t d-dang b-box. W-where's those-e Hiccup k-kids? (Perking up) KIDS! SCHOOL! NOW!

Shinji: Sigh… You must be right. I have a bad feeling though. Like something's going to happen.

Asuka: (Winking) We'll be sure to stay very careful then. (Reaching the park) C'mon! Lets find a place to sit!

Shinji: (Smiling)(Laughing) Asuka, you make it sound like we're at the movies.

Asuka: (Quickly) So you'll take me to a movie for a date?

Shinji: (Confused) Huh? Erm. What?

(A/N: IMPORTANT!

Hello, hello! Guess what? At that last question from Shinji, I had stopped writing. Though, after about, uhh, I think about a year, I just found this document again! And now I have an even better computer that WON'T crash! This story, which, after re-reading found I wrote nicely, will be continued! WOOHOO!

Though, my writing style has changed from they previous, so that will be the only thing changed, really. Except, I've scrapped all the other relationships except for SxA for now, but there might be something on the horizon… Ooooooooo… Also, my new e-mail is in my profile, so feel free to e-mail me. Anyways, on with the Fic!)

Asuka put on a puppy eyed expression, staring at Shinji. "Aww, don't tell me you haven't even thought about it." She asked.

"Oh, um, yeah, I've thought about it. But, you know, I don't think there are any good movies in the Theatres right now…" He said, thinking aloud. Asuka stopped and gave Shinji a frustrated look.

"Jeez Shinji-kun, are you THAT dense?" She asked, stopping Shinji. 'Have you ever thought that it's not about the movie? Maybe it's about us being together!' She thought.

"Dense?" Shinji questioned, "What do you mean, Dense?" He started to walk closer to Asuka, but then the unexpected happened. Out of nowhere a blue sports car flew out of the bushes next to them, screeching to a halt in the middle of the road. Asuka stood, staring at the car in surprise.

Misato's head popped out of the driver side window, screaming "Get in here NOW! You're late for school!" Hearing Misato, she reached for Shinji's hand, ready to race to the car. Though, surprisingly, she couldn't find Shinji's hand. She looked around, but she couldn't find Shinji.

"Misato! I can't find Shinji!" Asuka screamed to her guardian. Misato poked her head out the window again. "Then get in the car, we'll find him on the way to school!" Doing as she was told, she got into the back seat. She yelped when she felt she was sitting on something. Slap! "I found Shinji." She said, which was followed by a low moan from the formless heap on the floor of the car.

"Oww… Why did you slap me…?" Shinji asked quietly, rubbing his cheek. "Because you touched my butt, you hentai." She said, folder her arms. "Hey… I did not, YOU sat on my hand!" Shinji replied. Before Asuka could reply, the car door flew open and Misato threw the two onto the sidewalk next to the school. "Go!" was all she said. "B-but Misato, I'm not even in my School Uniform!" Asuka argued. She was answered with a bag of clothes being thrown at her. And, without another word, the car sped off at incredible speeds.

"Well, I guess we should get to class…" Shinji said, "If you want, I can walk you to the locker rooms." He said, smiling at Asuka.

Shinji and Asuka slowly walked into class 2-A, and stopped in front of the sensei. Shinji spoke first, "Gomen nasai, sensei, we didn't mean to be so late…" he said, both him and Asuka bowed. "Ah, Mr. Ikari and Ms. Sohyru. (A/N: That's how it says it's spelled on my DVD.) I realize how important your training is, so you both are excused. Please, take your seats." The sensei said. Asuka and Shinji looked at each other questioningly, then turned to the sensei. "Heheh… Training, rrriiigghhhttt." She said, laughing nervously.

They each sat down at their seats, while the teacher began his lecture on the second impact. Shinji sighed, "It's the same as it always is." At that moment, a small notice appeared on his laptop.

/ You have been invited to join a private chat room. Accept? Y / N /

Shinji checked the teacher's spot in the room, and then clicked on the 'Yes' button. (A/N: I don't know the actual screen names of everyone, or if there actually are specific ones, so I'll just put their names instead.)

Toji: Hey Shinji, what were you and Asuka doin' late, eh? Seems a bit weird you n' her both show up late together, ne?

Shinji: Oh, hey Toji… it's nothing, Asuka and I went to the park earlier. Well, we tried, actually, never really made it, though.

Toji:WENT TO THE PARK! Whoa man, what's wrong with you? Did the Devil put you under a spell or somethin'?

/ Kensuke has joined the chat room. /

Kensuke:Hey guys, how's it going?

Toji:Terrible! Man, the red demon has put a spell on Shinji!

Kensuke:WHAT! Oh man!

Shinji:Whoa, spell, what spell? Asuka and I were going to the park. There is no spell. C'mon guys… it's been a week!

/ Asuka has joined the chat room. /

/ Hikari has joined the chat room. /

Toji:H-hey! How'd you guys get the password!

Asuka:I'm the incredible Asuka Langley Sohyru! I can do anything.

Hikari:She's kidding. Y'know, Toji, BASEBALL sure is a fun game.

Toji:Aww, man! It took me forever to think that up!

Asuka:So, what's everyone talking about?

Kensuke:DEVIL! Give us back Shinji's soul!

Asuka:What are you talking about, dummkopf!

Shinji:Sorry Asuka-chan, they have am insane idea that you put a spell on me.

Asuka:Huh?

Hikari:You guys are weird.

Shinji:W-well, your beauty… put a spell o-on me.

The whole class, minus Rei, gasped and turned to stare at Shinji. Shinji blushed a dark red, and turned to Asuka, and he saw she was the same color as her hair. He heard Toji gasp, "Are they goin' out 'er somethin'?" then he heard, "HOW DOES EVERYONE GET INTO MY CHAT ROOMS!"

Shinji sat alone in the desk in the corner of the room, eating his lunch. Fortunately, the bell ringed after Toji's "Chat room" comment. He could hear the girls around the desk 2 spots away from him talking… about him. "Oh my gosh, he's so cute." One said, stealing a peek at him, while another said, "Watch what you say! He's with Asuka, remember?" Shinji blushed. 'What's wrong with being with Asuka?' He thought. "She's so lucky." Another girl said.

Rei came and sat down next to Shinji. (A/N: Rei may not be "Robotic" in this fic, but she's still very shy.) "Ikari," she said, "…How are you?"

Shinji resumed eating his lunch, paused, and said, "I'm fine. H-how are you, Ayanami?" He looked at her while she watched the desk in front of her. She blushed a little before she responded. "I'm fine…" She was talking quietly, "I noticed you're a… big spectacle in the class."

"Yeah… I'm sure the rest of the class is talking about either me or Asuka." He sighed, "I don't know what I'm going to do." He leaned back in his chair, setting his chopsticks down. "I also noticed all of the girls keep looking in this direction." Rei whispered. "Yeah…" Shinji replied. "These girls… it would seem they have an…" Rei blushed, "… unspoken affection toward you, Ikari."

Shinji didn't reply. He put his head down on the desk, shut his eyes, and eventually fell asleep.

-

Ikari…

Ikari…

Wake up Ikari…

Shinji awoke to see Rei standing in front of the Desk. "Sorry to disturb you, Ikari… but Lunch is over." Shinji lets his eyes adjust to the light. "Oh…" he yawned, "Thank you Ayanami…" Rei blushed a little, and then said, "… sure." before she retreated back to her seat.

Shinji got back to his seat, throwing away his garbage from lunch. The teacher re-entered the classroom, and began his lecture on the second impact… again. Shinji opened his laptop, and another notice appeared on the screen.

/ You have been invited to join a private chat room. Accept? Y / N /

Shinji pressed the 'Yes' button again.

Asuka:Hey Shinji-kun…

Shinji:Oh, hey Asuka-chan. How are you?

Asuka:I'm ok… Um, how are you?

Shinji:I'm… all right.

Asuka:Hey, um… did you mean what you said?

Shinji:You mean the, erm, "spell" thing, right…?

Asuka:Yeah…

Shinji:Uh, yeah, I meant it… I just didn't mean for the whole class to see it… I'm sorry if I embarrassed you.

Shinji glanced at Asuka, who was blushing a deep red. After she recovered, she began typing again.

Asuka:Actually… I'm sorry for not eating lunch with you. I guess I was embarrassed…

Shinji:Hey, I don't mind. I understand what it must be like. But… y-you can make it-t up to m-me… w-want to go get some food a-after school…?

Asuka:Oh! Um… definitely.

Shinji stole another peek at Asuka's deep red face before he closed the chat window, and enjoyed the thought for the rest of school.

After school was over, Shinji was finishing his cleaning duties. Apparently, staring at your girlfriend for excessive periods of time is considered as "distracting from school work". He was still getting over the embarrassment from all the "congratulations" and "oh man you're so lucky!" from all the guys in the school. Also, the glances and gossip from the girls wasn't helping either.

'I hope Asuka isn't having such a troubling day.' Shinji thought. 'Man, I can't wait until tonight. It's going to be great.' He finished cleaning the desks, and went about scrubbing the chalkboard. 'Aw man, I forgot! I have no idea where to take her.' He groaned as he mentally cursed himself.

"Mr. Ikari, are you finished? You've been scrubbing the same spot on the board for 5 minutes now. If you are, you may leave." The sensei said. His voice startled Shinji out of his thoughts. "Oh… hai sensei." He said, opening the door. He got a few steps down the hall when some one called out to him. "Ikari! Please, wait a moment." Shinji recognized Rei's voice. "Oh, Ayanami, how are you?" He said, turning around.

"I'm fine… Please, call me Rei…" She said, blushing slightly. "Ok, um, Rei. Please, call me Shinji." He replied, smiling. Rei blushed more "Sure… Shinji." They stood for a moment, until Shinji broke the silence. "So… Rei, what is it that you needed?" Rei's blush returned, startled from her thoughts. "Oh, I was wondering… is it true… about you and Pilot Sohyru?"

Shinji was surprised by Rei's question. "Oh, uh… Yeah, it is." He was even more surprised when he heard the disappointment in her voice. "Oh… then I guess I'm too late…" She said, eyes downcast. "T-too late? What do you mean, Rei?" Shinji questioned.

"It's nothing…" She said, trying to hide her blushing face with her hand. "J-just nothing." She turned around and said, "I have to go now… bye." Before she ran off down the hall, disappearing around a wall. "Well… that was strange." Shinji said, before he started home.

Rei leaned against the wall. 'I knew it… too late.' She thought to herself, closing her eyes, 'why does it hurt…?' She moved her hand over her heart. "I wish it didn't hurt so much." She whispered. She leaned forward, standing off of the wall, and turned to head for her apartment.

All-righty-then! This chapter is COMPLETE and FINALLY DONE! I'm extremely close to 10,000 words. I'm so proud! I've already started chap 6, so expect the unexpected update SOMETIME soon. 'Till next time, see you! Thanks to all!
