Perfect Life - Written by John Chalker

Fic takes place after the 5th angel. rei x shinji pairings.

"Speech"

'thought'

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shinji rushed to the entry plug and grasped the handles for the release. 'Owww' he thought as his hands touched the super heated handles, It was hot but this didn't stop him. after some strain the hatch opened

"AYANAMI" Shinji screamed out a few times
As she looked at him his eyes started to swell up, "Don't say... don't say that you have nothing else" he continued " Don't say 'Goodbye' when you leave on a mission... It's too sad"

Just after finishing his last words he started crying
"Why are you Crying?" Rei Inquired "I'm sorry, I don't know what I should do or feel at a time like this"

He looked up at her smiling a little "Why don't you try Smiling?"
She snapped her vision to his and a few image's of the commander smiling flashed before her eyes. Just after they had finished she wore a smile of her own.

Just then help had arrived and the pilots were taken back to Nerv HQ for debriefing

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You did well pilots" 2nd commander Fuyutsuki said in the overly large room.

"Thankyou" Shinji Replied, Rei didn't speak a word, Not that she wanted to but she had always stayed quiet unless spoken too directly

"You are Dismissed" After hearing that both pilots left Nerv and started walking down the streets of tokyo3. A few minutes passed when Shinji had enough balls to say something "Uhh.. So Ayanami how long have you lived here for?" She didn't slow her walking and kept her gaze ahead "My whole life" She answered

A few more moments passed when shinji should have walked towards his and masito's apartment "I... I Guess I'll see you tomorrow at school" after not hearing a reply he decided he would walk towards his own apartment.

Masito isn't home yet, I suppose I could fix dinner as Shinji walked into the kitchen

----------------------------------------

As the Operations director walked into the commander's office she started to feel intimidated by the shear size and darkness of the room, she stopped about 12 feet from the commanders desk

"Captain your plan was a success"
"Thankyou Commander" She was pleased. Very pleased to be receiving gratitude from the supreme commander of Nerv.

"Captain I also require Information about Pilot Ikari"
"Shinji-kun?"
Gendo didn't like that pet name for his son, But didn't say anything else and waiting for his question to be answered
"He is adjusting well sir"
"I see" he said softly "you are dismissed captain"

Without saying a word the captain turned and left gendo's office Why did he want to know about his son? She thought to herself as she left Nerv
"You do know that Shinji did infact rescue Rei" the person behind Gendo said
"Yes, That seams interesting" He replied "Order section two to keep a closer eye on them both"

-----------------------------------------

Back at the apartment shinji was laying on his bed with his sdat playing into his ears, 'Rei Ayanami he thought what's makes you so ..strange' he was lost in a train of thought when he heard Masito come into the apartment "YEEEHAAA" there it was. Masito's Patented beer cry, Shinji came to the conclusion it was best to stay put. he had left masito's dinner in the warmer and a note saying he was going to sleep. so he had no reason to exit his room

after a while he drifted into sleep, Still thinking about the first child, Not that he hadn't thought of her since he first met her but there was something.. strange that kept her in his mind

-----------------------------------------

Rei was laying in her bed in her small apartment

'Why was Ikari worried for me?' she thought to herself 'I donot understand him, No one has cared for me other then the Commander, The Doctor maybe but she was sometimes rough during medical exams' After a few more minutes of thought and not coming to a conclusion she to drifted into slumber

Authors note's:

Well I hope that was abit better. I'm going to try span it over a heap of chapter's, I don't mind writing so it sound like a good idea.
Thanks to all the people who reviewed before so I could change this story around to last a little longer. I used a spell check this time haha.
Anyhow thanks again.. and do leave some feedback on what you think of this one? I promise the other Chapter's will be alot longer.

Cheers
