Ok, at the moment, this story has been pushed back in the order of urgentness. As a result, it will not be updated for a little while because I am going away for a week. But other than that, this is the next chappie. This is done in the point of view of Shinji. Just like the last chapter I think.
Review time:
berettaboy- Why doesn't that surprise me about "expansion" anyway, it gets another mention in this chappie as well. Yes I agree that they should have expanded on it, but that is why we writers are here, to do that and add a twist.
PandaPjays- It's alright, anyway here is the update and hope you enjoy.
Also I would like to say thanks to jayhay for proofreading it at 12 last night. Thankies!
Sitting down on the hard vinyl seats of the train, I found that I was immersed with the sound of the rails and the chatter that filled the train. Every stop brought someone new on or dropped them off. The sound of my own musing was barely loud enough for me to hear. People were different in ideals and what they thought was life, but all were scared of the one thing. That as death.
Perhaps I am so close to it everyday, I get used to it, but why does my mother's still hit me the hardest? Probably because that was the day my father stopped talking to me like a son. That was the year I ran away from it all. I was not very sociable with other people, so I was alone, but I didn't mind it. Being alone is second nature to me I guess.
Looking up from the grey, monotonous floor, I looked into the intense blue eyes of- "Shinji, what are you staring at? Is the ground not good enough for your eyes anymore is there something that you find very attractive of me?" Asuka. I sighed. She was such a pain.
"No Asuka, I just happened to look up at you, I was not goggling you! But I was looking at your eyes if that is what you mean. They are quite pretty," good job Ikari that should stop her from thumping you! Her face went a bright red before she started to yell.
"MY EYES! You just looked at my eyes! Is my body not good enough to look at or do my eyes have an unsurmountable force that makes you look at them! You are so stupid third child that I don't know why I even waste my breath on you!" hopefully she has stopped…yes she has. Good.
Looking back at the floor, I could see Him out of the corner of my eye. I edged closer to him. Kaworu looked up; I love his red eyes. So intense that they could burn a hole into anything if he stared at it long enough. Do I have a hole in me? I quickly did a check of my body to make sure that I was whole.
"Ikari, what are you doing? You look as though you have lost something important," he spoke again! It seems like ages ago that I was in his arms; pushing my tongue further into his- Shinji, stop thinking about it. That could be one of those expansion packs that you just don't want while on a train.
"Hmm? Uh, no I thought that I forgot my security card when it was in my bag as I remembered. No need to get alarmed," I felt my cheeks burn hot. I looked back at the ground. If I looked at Asuka, I would have my ears burnt off, if I looked at Nagisa, well let's not go there.
People were once again leaving the train. One last stop then it was straight to NERV HQ. How I hated that company. So stupid with all the laws and regulations that kept me from telling people about why I was absent some days and why Rei usually came to school with at least one bandage on her body.
She was so quiet Rei. Always keeping to herself that it mostly scared people when she did actually try to start talking. Also, she was very formal with the way that she spoke that if someone did speak to her, they would either be scolded for being pushy or very politely told to leave her alone.
"Where's Ayanami? Was she already on the train when you came to get us Asuka? Because she wasn't at school I don't think," I was always hesitant to ask Asuka any questions. Say the wrong thing and say goodbye to your ears.
Glaring at me, she spoke, "Wonder Girl, who knows. She never turns up to school most of the time and she talks to no one. So how is any one supposed to know where the hell she is?" That went smoother than expected.
I studied the floor intensely, trying to find and cracks to poke my pencil through. As I found one, I realised that you wouldn't even be able to fit a piece of paper through it. That could be a problem for me. Oh well, I'll just have to find something that could fit. Maybe a leaf, but there are no leaves on this bus.
Stuff it; there is nothing on this train that could fit. If only it was wider then I could push my pencil through. That would be funny. Turning around, I found Kaworu staring at me again. It must be like some hobby of his that he does whenever he has the chance to. The most he does it is during class, in the change rooms, quartet practice and when we are on our way to HQ.
Without being rude, I looked back and smiled. Well I tried to anyway, but failed miserably. He did smile back however just before I was thrown off my backside and into his chest as the train suddenly stopped. Closing my eyes, I heard the steady but strong heart beat of the boy.
My arms had wrapped around his waist and for some reason I couldn't let go. This worried me. As I opened my eyes, his face was right above mine. Not being able to handle the situation well, I blushed furiously. Those few moments at lunch had passed and now it was back to normal. Being as embarrassed to be found looking at him let alone on top of him was earth shattering.
Getting up quickly, my hand got caught on his shirt. I pulled as to get it away only to have the buttons break and his shirt fly open. Turning around to apologise, I found myself staring at his six-pack and having the urge to touch it. It was rather an annoying situation. He had my full attention, and yet he let me stare and turn a deep shade of crimson.
"This is rather embarrassing now. Uh, do you want your shirt back Kaworu? I didn't mean to rip it off like I did. I panicked and my watch got caught and it just came off. Whoa, this really is embarrassing," I was really rambling now.
Handing back his shirt, his hand brushed against mine, "What is so embarrassing? Earlier, you were content to lie in my arms, now you are afraid to even touch my hand. Shinji, what is the matter?"
Just great, I have the almighty, sex god asking if I am all right. This is one of those really weird moments of my life, "I, uh…well it's just that…whoa. Kaworu I, uh…" Talk about awkward moments and a half. He is the almighty Kaworu and I can't even speak properly.
The train shuddered into the NERV HQ station. I now at least could try and collect my thoughts while I walked slowly to Ristuko and Misato. Getting up, I grabbed my books and went out the door. Asuka had gone and was half way there but I lacked the enthusiasm.
As I trudged down the hallway, Kaworu walked beside me. I knew that he would most likely want an answer as to why I was acting so weirdly on the train. Turning to face him, I noticed that he was pre occupied.
"Kaworu, I'm sorry for how I acted on the train. I do like you a lot, it's just that Asuka scares me and that glare was looking right at me when I was trying to speak to you. I'm sorry if you felt as though I had used you for my own purposes," boy was it hard saying that.
Smiling at me, he just nodded, "I thought you were rather embarrassed by her presence. Like when Ayanami is around. Perhaps, I can help you change the way you look at people so that you can be with me."
"Yeah, I wish that you could help me, but it just doesn't seem possible. I mean, I live with Asuka and Ayanami just stares and says nothing and is affiliated with my horrible good for nothing father. There are just so many things that annoy me and whenever someone is really close to my father, I get a weird feeling when I am around them. It's like they have this huge aura that only I can get be tractor beamed into and it's so annoying!" I now felt irritable and almost lashed completely out at my love.
"Ikari, do not worry about her. She in herself has an aura that could scare the living daylights out of anyone and Asuka's temper can annoy anyone. Even she can get on my nerves, do not forget that Ikari," he was so cool about my sudden freak out that it was really weird.
"So you are not fazed by my complete freak out and you are still wanting to be with me? You really do care don't you Nagisa? No one other than Misato really cares about me that much," it was a new concept to me; I have two people who love me for me.
He smiled and grabbed me around the waist, "Perhaps we should go out again. It would definitely take everything off your mind Shinji."
"You mean it Kaworu? I would have to make sure that Asuka doesn't catch wind of this till about a week after so that I don't get ripped on. Hmm, how bout this weekend?" I was so close to him and he was touching me. Lifting my arms, I wrapped them around his neck.
Leaning back slightly, Kaworu pulled me onto my toes, "Maybe we could go to the lake where we met for some lunch. That would be nice. I would like that a lot." I smiled, pulling him closer. It was nice being wrapped up by his arms that I was at peace.
We stood like that for ages, letting time pass as it wished. Finally, I pulled back from his embrace and looked at my watch. In large ugly numbers it blinked 3:59. Staring at it a few moments longer, it finally registered.
"Kaworu, we have to jet now or father will kill us slowly for being late. I haven't been late yet and don't really want to start either," I kissed him on the lips before parting. He pulled me back for another kiss before grabbing my hand and sprinting down the corridor.
I was panting heavily and struggling to keep up but still I ran on. Somewhere in me was a drive that was pushing me and telling me that if I didn't hurry up I would die in the next few seconds. However, Kaworu still grasped my hand and didn't let go till we got to Misato, Ristuko, Rei and a glaring Asuka.
"You are late Shinji. So are you Kaworu, this is unacceptable. What were you two doing that made you run late? Asuka said that you were both on the train and that you were walking here. That means you should have been here a few minutes ago and in your plug suits yet you are here in school uniform!" Misato was pissed.
"Sorry Misato, we'll get changed now then. Come on Nagisa, we have to hurry though," I grabbed Kaworu's hand and dragged him to the changing rooms. I continued to drag him till we were at my locker. Letting go, he walked over to his, which was on the other side of the bench.
Pulling off my shirt, I folded it up and placed it in my locker. Behind me, I could feel his eyes pouring over me. It was a weird feeling, but I liked it. Looking at my plug suit, I knew that I would have to take my pants off. Sighing, I undid the button and fly, holding onto my pants, I unfolded my plug suit with the other. Shaking it, I let go of my pants and felt them hit the floor.
Turning around, Kaworu was staring at me and I turned a brilliant red. He too had no shirt on, but he at least had his pants on. I on the other hand was trying to pull off my underwear and get into my plug suit as quickly as possible as to not expose myself for too long.
Putting my feet in and standing up, I felt a delicate pair of arms wrap around my waist. So warm and soft were his fingers as they grabbed my hips. He kissed my neck with his soft lips making them shiver with delight. Slowly falling to the seat, I felt him try to push my plug suit off my waist. Smirking, I continued to pull it up while we kissed on the bench.
While my plug suit remained on, I made sure the distance between our torsos was minimal. I felt myself get hotter but something clicked in the back of my mind. As my mind separated itself from my actual sense of being, I watched as my interesting carnal instincts took over.
Realising what was going on, I pulled myself back into my head and pulled away. Panting, I saw that his cheeks were red and that he too was panting heavily. Kaworu held me tightly round the waist as I sat on him looking into his eyes. Slowly, I pulled my plug suit on entirely, cutting off all senses of touch with the boy.
Standing up, I realised that Kaworu still had his school pants on. Walking over to his locker, I pulled out his navy blue suit and unfolded it. Taking it over to him, he stood there staring at me.
"Well, you have to get dressed sooner or later. I'd prefer sooner but unless you want Asuka coming in when you are fully exposed tickles your fancy fifth, then I'd get dressed," I hit the button on my wrist making the suit become skin tight.
Nodding slightly, he removed the rest of his clothing in front of my now gaping eyes. I swear there must have been a puddle of drool around my ankles. Kaworu knew I was staring and very slowly pulled his plug suit up over his slim and sexy body.
"Now I believe that we should leave this little room and go back to the others, this is before Misato goes absolutely bonkers at us for being even more late. If that is even possible," I now had shut down the drooling gland in my mouth and was now standing next to the teen.
"For Misato, anything is possible. Plus she has Asuka with her and Ristuko is there as well. So yes, it is possible and would cause Third Impact on its own if all that anger melted into one," Nagisa smiled at that last comment which made me laugh. Hugging him again, we ventured out into the hall and to where all the females that run this place and its attitude stood.
"What were you two doing that can possibly take 15 minutes to do? Where you two doing something that you shouldn't have been?" Asuka was quick to point the finger, "maybe you two are just slow at doing everything which wouldn't surprise me."
"Asuka, maybe you should stop prying into the business of others or it could can back and bite you. That would not be the prettiest sight that I would like to see," Kaworu stated as Rei stared at him in disgust. What was with Rei? Is there something that sets her on edge about my Kaworu? I thought as I flicked my eyes from Ayanami to Nagisa.
"Now, Shinji you get Eva 1 today, Rei in Eva 0 and Kaworu, you are to do your synchronisation test in Unit 2. Asuka, don't complain, you will be tested today. Just not right now," Akagi said as Asuka opened her mouth to complain.
"This is so not fair. Misato what is going on? Why is the Fifth Child going to use my Eva? I don't what has gotten into you Ristuko but I don't want him in my Evangelion," here she goes. Shaking my head, I started to walk to the door to where I was to access my entry plug.
Turning around, Kaworu was behind Rei and she wasn't impressed with him. Somehow, he had managed to get on her nerves without even talking to her. Looking forward, I once again thought of how little I knew of the boy and how little time I had known him for. He got here last month and yet I am now involved with him and Rei hates him.
Just who is he?
