Love

Chapter tree!

'There Ready'

Shinji was looking rather forwards to seeing Rei now. Maybe they would finally get the chance to know each other better. Just to know her more than anyone was his biggest dream.

Shinji opened his door and gasped as he found himself face to face with the redheaded Asuka. Her arms crossed over her breast. She narrowed her eyes.

"Ummm… Asuka could you move please?" Shinji attempted to pass but failed miserably

"Where the hell are you going BAKA?"

"Out" Shinji now quickly squeezed passed Asuka and bolted to the door before she had the chance to stop him.

"OUT, OUT WHERE! OH NO YOU DON'T BAKA YOUR NOT GOING ANYWHERE..."

Before Asuka could grab hold of Shinji the door had already slammed in her face.

'I'm going to be die a painful death when I get home. At least I get to see Ayanami'

With the thought of Asuka murdering him when he returned made Shinji run even faster than he had before.

"BAKA. IM GOING TO MAKE YOU WISH YOU WERE NEVER BORN!"

Shinji stop running when he reached the side of the city that Ayanami lived. The first impression of the place was that it was abandoned. Trash littered the streets and many of the buildings look like the mind could blow them over.

'Why does she live here, I think she's the only one who does live in this area. I wonder why?'

He was somewhat glad to see that Rei building looked a little more stable than the others he pasted. After a few minutes of thinking he was facing Rei's apartment door 402. When he put his hand up to knock he realised Rei had already opened the door.

"Ikari" came a soft voice he loved. He just loved the way it sounded coming for her.

"Ayanami…umm…" Shinji was glowing red. His eyes wondered to what she was wearing or the lack of what she was wearing.

He couldn't take his eyes off of her. The t-shirt she was wearing just covered her lower region letting her slender leg be shown. And what legs they were, perfect in every way. She had also only done up tree buttons, so you could tell she was nude underneath. Shinji couldn't believe how she could just walk around like that with out even a blush on her face. She didn't seem to care what people saw. And that was extremely worrying.

'She so beautiful. How can someone be so perfect?' But before he could think on the question more Rei's voice took him back to reality.

"Ikari" repeated Rei

'Why is he looking at me like that? Is there something wrong? I've never been looked at like that before. What is this feeling? Maybe I should ask the commander'

Rei's mind started to over lode with questions. She had never been so confused before about her emotions. The commander always said she didn't need such things. That it was a weakness that could be avoided.

"Oh sorry Ayanami…I didn't mean to I…" Shinji lowered his head in shame. He couldn't help but being such a boy and openly drooling over a girl.

'Here is come she so going to think I'm a pervert!'

"Why do you apologize? You have done nothing to offend me." Asked Rei.

' He is very strange' thought the young pilot.

'She not yelling she doesn't hate me' Shinji sighed in relief. Maybe he was to use to Asuka screaming at his about everything. Shinji sighed again before answering.

" Sorry Ayanami. Old habit I guess"

After several minutes of silence Rei spoke.

" Are you not going to come in Ikari?" Rei stood to the side of the door to give Shinji room to come in.

"Oh, yes"

Shinji stepped into a dark room were Rei lived. Not much had changed since the last time he was here. Only the bloody bandages were gone. Every thing else was the same empty and dirty. He never realised before how dirty the place was. Her cloths were thrown on the floor that had seen better days.

'How does she live like this?'

After taking off his shoes Shinji stood in front of Rei. He couldn't help but gaze into her crimson eyes, her eyes always look right into his soul. But he wished he could see emotion in them.

'Her eyes…I love her eyes. They are so…calming.' Shinji let himself get lost in her eyes for a while until he realised he was just gazing at her. He looked down at the flood cutting the eye contact with a slight blush.

'His eyes...there is something about them that catches my attention…I've never had someone look at me like that…it is a strange experience'

"So what did you want to talk to me about Ayanami?" Asked Shinji nearly forgetting why he came here.

Shinji was totally shocked when Rei took several steps closer to him. Until their faces were inches apart.

Shinji closed his eyes and felt Rei's warm breath on his face. Did she know what she was putting him through?

"What do you think of me Ikari?" Was her question.

Rei Ayanami had always lived her life for one purpose. The commander. And that was it she wasn't scared of dieing and would freely give her life to him if and when he wanted it. Her only existence was to serve the Commander. But then Shinji came into her life. She never thought much of him, only that he was the Commanders son. Their first meeting wasn't good. He seem to loathe his father even to insult him in her presence. Which led to her slapping his face. But he was the only one that really saw her and he even on several occasions tried to befriend her. She wanted to know what he thought of her. What was she in his eyes? A doll like the others thought of her or was she more?

Shinji eyes open when he answered. Looking straight into her crimson eyes that he loved.

" I think you are a good friend" Shinji frowned at the look on Rei face. For the first time he could almost read it. Rei almost looked disappointed at his answer.

" Do you care for me Ikari-kun?" Was her second question. Rei had never felt this way before. No one had ever made her so confused but at the same time feel safe and something else but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"Umm… I think I do Ayanami"

"Why do you as…" Shinji didn't finish his question as he felt Rei's soft lips pressed lightly against his.

'Ahhh…so… Soft.' After that Shinji's mind went blank. All his concentration went to the girl that was kissing him.

'His lips are warm. This is… enjoyable. I seem to enjoy this feeling…. I… LIKE Ikari?"

After a few minutes had passed Rei removed her lips from his. She came to the conclusion that she had some feelings of affection towards the young Ikari.

It took another few minutes for Shinji to recover. Only in his wildest dream would Rei ever Kiss him.

"Umm… Ayanami what was that for?" Breathed Shinji. He missed the feeling of her lips already. He had to retrain himself or he would have grabbed her and kissed her again.

" I…umm…I-I like you Ikari-kun" Rei was surprised at her hesitation she never hesitated before. Why now? What was different about Ikari that made her act different?

'Oh my god is she blushing?' Shinji couldn't get over what was happening. He thank god that it was happening but still could believe it.

" I would…like to know you more...Ikari-kun" it was the truth. She didn't know much about him. Only that he seemed to really care for his friends and that he was a gentleperson.

" I am…Rei took a slight pause thinking what this feeling was but soon came to a conclusion… ha…ppy when I am…near you"

'What make me like him so?'

Shinji was very shock at what he was hearing. He made her happy? Shinji smiled at this he loved the thought of making her happy.

'This is the best day of my life Rei cares for me.'

" Do you like me Ikari-kun?" Asked Rei she stood back a little waiting for his answer.

"Yes…very much" Shinji said with a tender smile.

" I believe when two people have feelings of affections for one another, they become an item. Boyfriend and girlfriend is this correct?" Rei had once read an on it book. About relationships. She was very surprised to find out things people did with each other when in a relationship. Kissing was on of the things that Rei was curious about.

" Umm yes" agreed Shinji

" Would you like to become boyfriend and girlfriend with me?" Asked Rei stepping closer to him again.

' Can't believe she is asking me'

"Yes…. But on one condition"

Rei nodded " what is the condition?"

" You call me Shinji" he answered with a smile.

" Yes Ika…Shinji-kun. Then it would be acceptable for you to call me Rei?"

" Yes Rei." Shinji was very happy at this point Rei was his girlfriend. Who would have thought? She was HIS girlfriend that was all that mattered.

"Shinji-Kun what do we do now?" Rei asked not having read enough about relationships to know.

" I really don't know Rei" Shinji looked at Rei " what would you like to do?"

Shinji smiled as he saw Rei tilted her head a little to the side thinking of what she wanted. She looked like a little girl thinking of what she wanted for Christmas.

'She looks cute when she does that…very cute.'

" Could we kiss again? I rather…enjoyed it."

Shinji replied by pressing his lips on Rei's. He was overjoyed that that was what she wanted to do. He placed his arms around Rei's slender waist and brought her closer to him. Pressing her body to his. Rei brought her hand to Shinji's neck and Ran her hands threw his hair.

Shinji blushed at the feeling of Rei's body pressed tightly against his. And blushed even heavier when he heard a little moan escape her lips.

The kiss went on for several minutes both enjoying each other's warmth. But all human beings have to breathe.

So Shinji reluctantly broke the kiss. He slowly moved his lips away from hers. He pulled back only slightly so their faces were still inches apart.

"Rei it's getting late and I should get home." Whispered Shinji.

Rei loved the feeling of his hot breath on her lips. She could tell from his face that he didn't want to go. But knew he had too. She nodded her head in agreement.

When Shinji finally let go of his girlfriend and opened the door it was poring down with rain. Or more like hailstone

'They're going to hurt'

He was about to step out when he felt Rei gently grab his arm.

"Shinji It would be best to stay here for the night. This is not a good condition to go out." Stated Rei plainly.

" I think your right Rei. I'll call Misato and tell her ok." Shinji pulled out his phone and dialled her number.

After a couple of rings she picked up.

" Hi Misato I'm staying at Rei's today it hailing too hard for me to get home. Is that ok?"

'Please let it be ok I'm not going out in that. Plus I want to stay with Rei.'

" What? Oh ok. But you better not do any thing Shinji. Keep your hands to your self!" She couldn't help but tease a little she could see his face light up like a match in her mind

" Were you sleeping?"

" Misato you know I wouldn't do…that" Shinji was now blushing very hard. " I'll be sleeping on the floor."

" Ok then, remember shin-Chan hand to your self!"

"Misato! Bye ok night"

" Night Shinji"

" Misato says its ok" Said Shinji as he put his phone back into his pocket.

" Why did you say that you were sleeping on the floor Shinji-kun?" Rei asked tilting her head to the side again.

'I love it when she does that…she looks so innocent...well she is.'

"Umm… Because I thought I was Rei?"

" But you can sleep on the bed with me? It would be more comfortable."

Rei couldn't see why he would want too sleep on the floor. It wasn't the cleanest place and not very comfortable either. She didn't really know what was proper and what was not.

'She really is innocent she doesn't know what proper…like when I fell on her and she was…'

Shinji decide to cut the thought short before he made himself faint thinking of it.

" Umm…Rei I don't know. It wouldn't be proper and if someone sees..." Shinji tried to explain.

" No one is here to see. And I would not mind"

'Why does he argue? Does he not want too sleep on the same bed with me?'

Rei stepped closer to Shinji now they were nearly as close as when they were kissing. She just stood there and stared up at him.

" Really?" Asked Shinji

Rei replied by lightly pressing her lips on Shinji's the check. This action made Shinji not think twice about the situation. Yep he was very much willing to sleep on the same bed as his girlfriend.

" Ok"

" Rei are you hungry" Asked Shinji as he felt his stomach growl. Thanking god that it wasn't that load or he would have been very embarrassed.

" I could make you something" Suggested Shinji

" That would be acceptable."

Half an hour later

Shinji Finished putting the plates of food on Rei small table. He made soup, rice and some fried vegetables for Rei. He knew she was a vegetarian and had learned how to make vegetarian food straight away.

They soon sat and ate in silence. Both taking secret glances at each other. When they finished eating Shinji cleaned up and went to wash the dishes.

' I think im going to have to clean the place up' thought Shinji while the washed the dishes. Once he had made the kitchen as clean as he could with out all his cleaning products he went and stood next to Rei in front of her bed.

" How do we do this?" Asked Shinji not knowing one bit how they would do this.

" You get in first" Spoke Rei.

" Ok" Shinji got into Rei's bed and turn facing the wall.

In a few moments Rei was in the bed with him. Shinji gasp as he felt Rei's arms around him and her head resting on his back. Rei pressed herself against him tightly.

'He is warm. What is this I'm feeling?

As Shinji felt Rei breath on his neck his closed his eyes and concentrated on the sensation he was feeling. His hormones were acting up very fast at the feeling. Rei move again this time her legs were slightly wrapped around his and her hand was on his chest holding his shirt tightly in her little hands.

'Her legs are so smooth. She makes me feel so calm.'

Shinji moved his hand so that they were on top of hers and rubbed them lightly. He fell into a deep
slumber at feeling Rei wrapped around him.
