'Who could this be' Shinji jumped off the couch and slowly walked towards the door 'I swear if it's another pizza prank I'm going to step on that pizza shop with my Eva'
He pushed the button to
unlock the door and slid it open to reveal Rei "Uhh hi Rei, I
didn't know you were coming over"
Rei looked at shinji
for a second before replying "Shinji… I heard you were watching
the test today"
"Oh yeah that.. Last
night when you said you had testing I thought you meant us. So I went
in and I followed the techs into that room"
'So he wasn't
sneaking around' "That's ok Shinji, What you saw today was…"
"It's ok Rei, I know your part angel so you would have some of they're powers… But your not going to turn are you?" he looked at her waiting for a answer
"Of course not
Shinji.. Can I come in?"
Shinji realised he was
making her stand outside still and moved out of the way to let her
in, Rei walked into the apartment and noted that it was impeccably
clean which meant the captain wasn't home
"Soda Rei?" Shinji
asked from the kitchen, Rei thought for abit and gathered that she
hasn't had any fluids for the past few hours and nodded
"Shinji" Rei said
as he sat down at the other end of the table "I'm here to allow
you to understand what happened today"
"That's ok Rei. I
know that information is probably classified…" She cut him off
"The Commander has allowed you to know"
'Dad' he thought "I'm pure angel now Shinji, I just found out today and they were testing if I had a AT Field, I didn't know I could produce one but with my life in immediate danger I deployed it"
Shinji sat in awe…
She was pure angel? That meant she no longer had her mothers DNA?
"So that means you
don't have" She cut him off again "No Shinji, I no longer have
Yui Ikari's DNA"
Shinji Smiled, At
seeing his reaction Rei started to relax, She was expecting him to
freak out or something of the sort
"So why does farther
want to test your abilities" He inquired taking a sip of his can
She sat there for abit
before replying to him "I'm not sure if I can tell you Shinji,
But its to do with protecting and restoring life" It was not
totally a lie but she did not want to disclose the real reason to
Shinji. Not yet anyhow
"Oh ok" 'Farther
actually wants to protect and restore life?' he thought 'that's
weird'
He looked at his watch just as his stomach growled "ahhhh.. Rei are you hungry? I can fix something for us to eat?"
"There is no need Shinji, I am to eat with the Commanders tonight" She looked at him as his face changed to one that she thought resembled 'Reject' "You can accompany us Shinji"
"Huh?" He looked up
at her immediately with shock written all over him "With farther?
Umm.. I… I Can't"
"Why not Shinji-kun"
She titled her head to her side, "Because umm.. I don't know.. If
he.. Would allow me there" she looked at him curiously "Of course
he would Shinji, You are his son and you are going to be living with
him are you not?"
He looked at the ground
"That's what I asked him but he wouldn't allow it anyhow"
"He has" She stood up "He already filled in the necessary forms. You move in 2moro, and the day after we are to greet the second child" She reached over and grabbed his hand "And now Shinji I wish for you to accompany me to Eat with your Farther and the second Commander" Shinji looked at her with disbelief written all over him,
Rei even looked shocked at her actions. She has never been so forward in her actions before. 'did I just say I wish for him to accompany me' she was broken from her quick little thought when she heard shinji speak again "Rei" he paused but continued when she looked at him "Your going to make me aren't you?"
She looked at him for a second and quickly replied "Yes Shinji" he looked down "ok, as long as you promise you will protect me if anything happens" she looked at his face.. It looked as if he was 'scared'
"Of course I will Shinji I promise" she let him stand up "We must go or we will be late"
"Ill grab my things" Shinji ran to his room and grabbed his SDAT and a pair of shoes, a wallet and his phone. He walked back out to see Rei standing by the entrance "I have rang a Taxi to take us there as the restaurant is on the other side of the city" Shinji nodded and they both exited the apartment
It wasn't long before they were in the taxi and on they're way to the restaurant
----------
"Sir the first and third child have left the apartment and are on they're way"
"Thankyou Agent"
Fuyutsuki said "You are dismissed" he hung up his phone and
turned towards the commander 'I hope your heart is in good shape my
friend'
"Something wrong
Fuyutsuki?" Gendo spoke up noticing his friend staring at him"ahh nothing Gendo,
Rei should be here soon"
"Good. Waiter I would
like a Bourbon and coke Fuyutsuki what do you want?"
"Just a beer will do
me"
"Pussy" Gendo
smirked "Hey at least I can handle it" Fuyutsuki shot back.
"Humph" Gendo chose
not to continue that one
----------
"That'll be $27.90
kids" Said the taxi driver as they pulled into the restaurant car
park
"Charge it to Nerv"
Rei said as she hoped out "No problems maim" The taxi driver said
as he drove off
Both Rei and Shinji walked into the restaurant and located the Commanders in seconds as they were sitting on the empty side of the room, The local population were to scared to sit to close to them
Gendo looked up for a
second and his eyes shot wide 'O my God What the hell is he doing
here!' he mentally screamed
On the other side of
the room shinji started to sweat 'Please god take me now' Rei
pulled on his arm leading him to the table, He couldn't help but
follow
Once they had reached
the table the commander had readjusted himself "I have brought
Shinji along. I hope you do not mind"
"Of course not Rei.
Sit down Shinji" Fuyutsuki stood up gesturing the seat beside where
rei was now sitting. Which also put Shinji right across from his
farther
"Thankyou sir"
Shinji obediently took his seat "Just call me Fuyutsuki Shinji"
Shinji nodded
"Hello Farther" he
said looking at Gendo "Ikari" he replied. Rei picked up her menu
"What are they serving tonight" she broke the tension at the
table
"Some new dish's, Although by the sound that guy was making in the toilet before I'm not touching that curry" Gendo joked. Shinji looked at him with disbelief, He didn't know his farther could act…. Normal
----------
"You mean Shinji-kun
is moving with his dad?" Misato asked the Doctor
"Yes, it seams like
they might be trying to re establish their relationship" she said
flicking threw the file
"This is so not fair,
Who is going to clean my apartment now?" she pouted and crossed her
arms in the leather chair
Ritsuko looked up from
her desk "Don't worry the second child will be living with you,
So you will have a new slave"
Misato looked at her
friend with utter disbelief "I don't need a slave, I never
treated shinji as one… did I?"
"I don't know if
you did or not but by your reaction before it kinda proved you did"
she said in a stoic voice flicking threw the file again
"you take anything
out of context Ritsuko" she gave her a side profile of her face
"Maybe so but you are the one that said it"
"Humph" she stood up "Anyhow I'm going home, I'm tired" she walked out of the office and towards the exit
'I should get home to feed my pets as well' Ritsuko thought as she closed the file 'I can file this data tomorrow' she walked to the office door and keyed a few numbers in the keypad activating the rooms security system and walked out the door
----------
The table was in Laughter, Fuyutsuki was cracking jokes and the tension had basically vanished Gendo had already had a few drinks by now
"So Shinji" He
broke the laughter "Your moving in with Gendo hey"
"umm" he started to
sweat again "Of course he is.. Ahh the day I have always thought
about will come tomorrow, Thankyou for coming back Shinji" Gendo
said taking the last mouthful from his glass.
'Shinji.. He used my name' he thought, It was the first time he ever used his first name in so many years
He nodded.
"So Rei have you
used any of my idea's yet?" Fuyutsuki asked between bites of his
Spaghetti
She thought for abit to
pinpoint what he was actually talking about "No sir I have not had
to chance"
"Do you plan to?"
He asked again "Just remember what I said" "Yes sir I will"
Gendo looked at Fuyutsuki for a explanation but would not be
receiving one.
He looked back at his
glass "Where in hell is my refill!" He bellowed at the waiter in
turn who ran off to get Gendo's refill.
After that the dinner
went well and was over in a short while. Shinji and Rei were
travelling back to his apartment
"Thanks for taking me
there Rei" he said looking out the window
"You welcome Shinji,
It went well didn't it?"
"Yes it did" he started to smile "I'm glad I went"
The black limo came at
a stop inside the apartment Complex "Sir we have arrived"
"Thankyou Driver. You
may return to Nerv now" Rei said as her and Shinji exited the Limo
Once they were inside
Shinji turned on the TV for Rei before fetching his computer to check
his Emails
Rei Enjoyed watching
the TV but her mind was on what Fuyutsuki had told her
"Shinji" He looked
up from the Computer "Do you think I am attractive?"
Shinji's mouth almost
hit the ground. "umm.. Linda.. I mean… umm.. Yes" he nervously
spoke
Rei smiled "Shinji. Do you like me?"
Shinji started to sweat
harder and his eyes darted around the room looking for a escape
route. Rei was already sitting close to him "umm.. Yes.. as a
friend" he stammered the last part out
"oh just as a friend"
she said moving away slightly "umm I mean. ahh." 'Please god
just swallow me up NOW!' "I do.. Like you.. Rei"
She smiled again "Shinji one last question"
He looked at her again "Do you think of me as just a friend and nothing more could come of it?" she looked at him with a shimmer in her eyes
Shinji turned bright
red "Umm you're a great friend Rei" His blushed deepened "But
I would.. Like to.."
He was cut off when Rei
suddenly lent forward and planted her lips against his. He tensed up
instantly but slowly relaxed and closed his eyes to return the kiss
'Thankyou 2nd Commander' Rei thought to herself as she wrapped her arms around him
----------
Gendo and Fuyutsuki
were riding home in Gendo's limo to play some cards
"So what is this
secret conversation you had with Rei" he asked
"Oh that. She asked
how she should find out if shinji would like to be with her or not"
Gendo looked at him
"And what did you say?"
"I gave her some
advice and probably right now, They should be kissing at least"
Gendo had a look of
horror plastered on his face
Fuyutsuki Chuckled
"Don't worry Gendo, I told her its not proper to go further to
early in a relationship
Gendo calmed down abit
"But they are kissing?" he asked still shocked
"Most probably" Fuyutsuki grabbed his beer "Anyhow are you ready to loose again?"
"as if old friend,
Gendo never looses twice" he said in a playful tone totally forgeting about the two pilots
"We will see"
Fuyutsuki chuckled again
----------
After a while the two
teens parted.
"Rei I" Shinji
couldn't finish when Rei put her finger over his lips
"shush don't say
anything Shinji-kun" She said as she rested her head on his chest
"Just.. Hold me"
Shinji complied and put
his arms back around Rei
Before long the two
teens started to fall asleep "Rei do you.. Umm want to sleep in my
bed"
She looked up at him,
"Shinji I cannot allow any more then a kiss"
He turned beet red "Uhh no Ayanami, I meant would you rather sleep in a bed? The couch is kind of uncomfortable"
"In that case yes" She stood up and walked towards Shinji's room, Making sure not to make a sound to disturb the Captain sleeping. After they climbed into bed Rei snuggled up to Shinji once again. Shinji froze up but relaxed a second later. "Goodnight Shinji-kun" Rei said as she kissed him the last time for the night
"Goodnight Rei-Chan" he said in a whisper before closing his eyes and wrapping his arms around her, Rei smiled at his use of Chan. 'I am the luckiest guy on earth' he thought as he drifted to sleep'
----------
In the lounge room sat the glow of a computer screen, Shinji accidentally bumped the web cam button as rei was asking the questions showing Touji and Kensuke the whole thing.
ToughNut: He is so

TheBiggestGeek:

ToughNut: Done

#3-stooges
There sat Shinji's Computer with his web cam still broadcasting a empty couch to the Internet, plus holding vital information that could save him from a embrassing beating
