Part Two: PREDICTIONS
OoO
oOo
OoO
"What the! Could you two please let go of me?" I was being dragged by my two friends here named after Kensuke Aida and Touji Suzuhara.
"We'll just try if it's true or not." Kensuke said as we went inside a tent. When the three of us finally made it inside I saw a woman sitting on a chair of course and in a table at her front was a small crystal ball and beside that ball was a deck of not that big but still big cards. "What are we going to try Ken?" I asked him hoping that I would get a nice answer.
"You'll see." Then we stood right in front of her.
"Good afternoon. What do you need?" said the strange woman wearing a black silk dress. I think she's 10 years older than Misato-san. She had a long black hair, green eyes, tan skin, long finger nails and black lips? Maybe it's just the lipstick.
"Well, we want to know if our friend here, Shinji was lucky in love." What the! Lucky in love! "Hey! Hey! What are you saying?" I said before throwing a death glare at Touji.
"Oh. That's easy. Sit." Easy? To predict my love life! Hmmm.. how could she know it anyway. The three of us sat down then she pick up the deck of not that big but still big cards. "hmm.. let's see.."
She then started to mixed the cards, she said that I have to pick 7 cards, so I did. After that she put that down on the table. She pick up one of them then she started talking.
"Later on the jamboree you'll meet your girl---"
"Whoaaaa…" that's Touji.
"Touji! just say 'whoaaaa' later okay?" and that's Kensuke.
"My girl?" and that's me.
"Uh-huh. Your girl. I have to say that it's impossible for the two of you to get together but then you'll realize that you needed her just as much as she needed you. You'll make a great couple though you're very different in many aspects." Is she even serious? My girl?
"Could that be----" that's Kensuke and I cut him by standing up and saying three words. "I'm outta here."
That's exactly three words right? If I say I'm out of here that would be four words so I changed out of to outta so that I could be able to say three words. Right? On the other hand, do I really have to explain that?.. "Sorry and thank you." now that's four words.
"Shinji!" but I started walking out of the tent. I can't just believe this woman in predicting my future especially my love life. She's just a person like me and what if I told her that she'd marry Gendo Ikari tomorrow, hmm.. wonder if it could come true. "Sorry. Here's the bill. Thanks anyway." I heard Touji then they follow. So that's it, she's doing it for something in exchange, money. Now, there's no way I'll believe that.
"Hey! What's with you?" Kensuke said as he put me in a headlock. "Kensuke! That's impossible!" I said trying to free myself.
"What's impossible? Fer yah to have a girl friend? Shin-man! What if it's true? What do yah want me to do to yah huh?" as if it is.
"And what if it's not? Do you want me to kick your balls to Pluto?" did I just say that?
"Whoa. Shinji! Your mister-no-I'm-not-a-wimp-anymore now huh! Good. See, prediction's not that bad." Kensuke's trying his best for me to believe in such things. "Yeah. Yeah. And mister-no-I'm-not-a-wimp-anymore will sent you flying to the moon any minutes from now. There's no such thing as that!"
"Whatever. Hey. There's a jamboree tonight. Let's come. We'll wait fer you there Shin-man okay?" with that they both disappeared on my sight.

"I'm so fucked up this day! Grrrr! Stupid book!" said by a certain annoyed red headed girl beside a brunette.
"Asuka! You told me you don't believe in that book and now.. tsk.." she said as they walk on the street heading Asuka's apartment. The rain did stop but Asuka's anger did not.
"Gggrrr! Of course am not! It's just that this day brought nothing but bad luck for me! Argh!"
"Really.."

"Asuka? Are you okay?" I asked with a worried look on my face. Her hair's in a mess and her clothes were somewhat wet but not that wet, got it? "What do you think? Do I look like okay!" same old her. She then kicked off her shoes and went inside. Hikari followed behind and greeted me. "Hi Shinji!" I smiled faintly at her then she followed Asuka. Oh! I forgot, it rained just a little while ago but it stopped after a minute or two. How come Hikari's not wet? Weird.
"Hey Shinji, you going to the jamboree?" Hikari asked me. "Yes."
"Good. Then we can come together. Is Touji coming?" I nodded. Of course she would definitely ask about him. That is when Asuka call her. "Hikari! Come her inside! I'll lend you a kimono."
"I better get ready." Then she entered Asuka's room. After a minute or two I finally went inside my room to change as well.
After an eternity the girls finally came out of Asuka's room. Hikari's wearing a green kimono while Asuka's wearing a red one. Hikari's hair were not in pig tails and were hanging freely while Asuka's hair were braided and resting on her right shoulder. He was speechless. Asuka was really an exquisite young lady, her only problem is her personality.
"Baka you can pick up your jaw now." his jaw dropped?
"Whatever." Receiving no response from me she turned her attention to her best friend. "Let's go bf." Hikari nodded and they walk off, and soon followed by me.

"3 out of 5! Not that bad young lady. Here, you go." The owner said as he handed a key chain to Asuka. "I could've got that big teddy bear. Just 2 to go." Now I wonder where's Touji and Kensuke.
"Shin-man!" there they are! "Your late."
"Gomen ne. It's just that Kensuke's such a slow poke." Touji said while smirking.
"Hi Touji." Hikari said with a small pinkish blush visible on her face.
"Hi Hikari! Hey! The demon's here. Zup?" Touji never change.
"Shut up jerk! I don't need your words and you should better watch that mouth of yours or I'll rip that any minutes from now! and my day's already spoiled you don't have to spoil it anymore dobe!" and of course so as Asuka.
"Could you please stop that Touji." and Hikari would definitely fight for her best friend.
"Let's just go away from here bf." Asuka said.
"But Asuka." Of course Hikari wants to spend this night with Touji.
"Yeah that's it. Fine. Choose him over me. Shinji let's go." Okay. What! Me! Before I could complain, for the second time I was being drag to the hill? Oh. She wanted to see the fireworks display.
"Hey Asuka! What are you doing?" I said.
"Dragging you! Isn't it obvious baka!" yeah right.
"We're here." She said as she sit on the grass. Then the fireworks display started. I began to sit beside her ignoring the fireworks and looking intently at her glowing exquisite face.
"This is the most beautiful display that I've ever seen on my life." She said before sighing. "And you're the most beautiful girl that I've ever seen on my boring life." I mumbled under my breath.
"What was that?" she heard me? I averted my attention as I look down. "Nothing." I just began to notice that Asuka's really beautiful. She had an exotic look.
"Baka."
"By the way baka, the fireworks' for what?" she asked out of curiosity.
"They say that fireworks are used to take the attention of Kami-sama."
"Then?"
"People would wish."
I said as I began to watch the fireworks as well. Now, what should I wish.. hmm.. I hope that me and Asuka could be really good friends and please.. give some, just some spine.
Just right after the fireworks display it suddenly rained. Asuka keeps on cursing while we went down the hill and to a near tent. Unfortunately the tent's full so we decided to stay under a tree. Many people we're now leaving because the rain's getting heavier. Then we spotted an umbrella vendor. I bought an umbrella but there's only one left so we just shared on that umbrella. Misato's apartment was so far and the path that we're taking started to get muddy and Asuka's in her Kimono. So I did what she's expecting the less. I gave her the umbrella and without any sweat I carried her.
"What the! What are you doing baka!" Asuka's shock was visible and she started to panic.
"Carrying you. Isn't it obvious?" heh heh. Gotcha there miss pretty. Now, I can feel kami-sama's slowly granting my wish.
"You don't have to do this baka! Now let go of me!" she said before she struggle against me. "Asuka! I just.. hum.. I don't want to spoil your kimono!" but the truth I really want to hold her close to me.
"Really huh.. after this I'll beat you!"
"Ready when you are." Whatever. I don't care. Situations don't seem to change whether I do this or not she would still beat me and call me baka. So I'll better do this that not, at least it's worth it. then i heard her muttered something like.. "Stupid superstitions.."
Seconds passed by then minutes and neither one of them saying anything. Finally Shinji put her down.
"Where are we?" she asked me as she close the umbrella.
"Hotel. We'll stay here until the rain stops. Is that okay with you?" I asked her then she nodded in response. I cringed knowing that there's only one room left and I have to agree on it just because of the continuous rain. The receptionist gave me a towel which I whole heartedly accepted. After all I was soaking wet because I wasn't fully covered by the umbrella. Well, it's better than for Asuka to be wet.
"Here's the room. Enjoy your stay and just call me if you want anything." He's about to leave when Asuka called him back.
"Do you have hot springs?" so she wanted to relax in a hot spring. While she's busy talking with the receptionist I slowly enter the room. Wow! I almost shout for joy in seeing what's inside. It's thrice maybe not just thrice for it's really bigger than my room. Almost everything's in it. A large flat screened television, fridge, radio, closet and what caught my full attention was the king size luxurious bed. Asuka's behind me and I can see that she's also in an awe. Our hearts leapt in joy deep inside knowing that we'll sleep in this kind of room when…
"A-a-a-aaaachoo!" I sneezed. "Sorry."
OxO

"Are you sure your okay?" even if that's not visible or transparent I could still hope that she's kinda concern. I nodded.
"Why don't you try the hot springs? I'll follow right ahead." She nodded. After some more minutes I followed. I took the right door that leads to the male hot spring. Of course both parties should not bathe together. The atmosphere and the surrounding was very soothing and relaxing. The hot springs contains rocks, plants and trees and of course the streaming water. Rocks divide the hot spring in where Asuka's staying and where I was staying.
"Asuka?" I heard her as she cursed under her breath.
"I thought it's someone perverted to know that it's just you baka. You shock me to death." She said as she put back the towel on her forehead that fell when I called her name.
"Sorry."
"You should." She said before I hear her sighing in contentment.
"This is really relaxing. Really good to make me forget everything especially my problems and---- whatever." She said before everything went dead silent except for the streaming water.
"Asuka?"
"……"
"Asuka?"
Receiving no reply from her I began to get worry. I want to check her out if she's okay, but I don't think that's a better idea.
"Asuka?" whatever. Just protect me kami-sama. "Asuka?" I began to kneel and then I turn around to see her sleeping. I sighed and was about to turn around again when two blue orbs open. Our gaze met and we both blush. Then the inevitable happened.
"Baka hentai! I knew it! You Shinji Ikari was born to be a real perverted baka!" she then started splashing water on me.
"Asuka! It's not what you think it is!"
"Shut up! take this and this!" she stood up and keeps on splashing water on me.
"Asuka! Stop! I can't see!"
"So you want to see me naked you pervert!" then she stopped. I was about to open my eyes when something hit me. "Baka!" I removed the towel from my face to see her walking out with a towel hugging her slim body. "Asuka matte!" but she's already out of my sight.

"ROOM SERVICE!"
I heard one door banged then another. It's already time for dinner. I stepped inside the room to see her on her kimono setting the food in the table. She then glared at me as I swallow hard.
"A-a-asuka."
"Shhh! I don't want to hear a word baka!" she said before sitting on one of the two chairs. "Eat then after that sleep! On the floor! I will not sleep with a hentai like you in the same bed! No way in hell!"
"But---!"
"Hush!"
"Asu---!"
"Not a word!"
"I just thought something terrible happened to you that's why I checked on you I didn't mean to do it on purpose and I'm not a hentai.." I mumbled.
"What?" she stood up then she came to me slowly. I think my hearts going to explode! Why does she make me go nuts and so terrified! She then suddenly stopped. Her face's only inches from mine. "Is that true?" I slowly nodded.
"You're sure you didn't do that on purpose!" I quickly nodded.
"Fine! Let's just drop this nonsense conversation! Here! Take this." She handed me the towel and went back to her seat. I toweled my hair then we began eating dinner.
"Shinji? You're blushing? Are you okay?" me? Blushing? She stood up and walk up to me. She then touched my forehead with the back of her right hand. "Your hot.." after that she's gone for minutes then she came back carrying a thermometer. "Open wide…" I raised a brow.
"Stupid… open your mouth baka!"
"Oh.." I then opened my mouth then she inserted the thermometer in it. After some minutes she authenticated it, 41 degree Celsius. "baka! Your sick! And now it's my fault…"
I quickly shook my head. "No! it's not your fault Asuka-chan!" Asuka-chan?..
"But if you didn't carry me we could share in that umbrella and it can cover you well." She said through worried face and voice. Taking the opportunity because I really don't know when will this spine lasts I grabbed her arms and pushed her down so that she's sitting on my lap. Her face suddenly glowed with embarrassment and she was about to say something when I covered her lips with my fore finger.
"Shhh.. now pretty you shut up." her eyes went wide as I began to make my unforgettable corniest speech ever!
"It's okay Asuka-chan. It's better for me to catch this fever than you having it." I then took both of her arms as I hook them on my shoulders and around my neck. I look at her face and then straight on her crystalline blue eyes. "And you know, I would even risk my life for you. I just want to tell you that I'll protect you until the last breath runs out of me." God! That's so corny! I can't believe I'm saying this! Well, I still continue.
"Back to the jamboree, you asked me why am I carrying you and I said I don't want your kimono spoiled. Yup that's true, but the truth is.. Uhmmm.." here I am again. I began to blush as I stutter for the right words to say when she spoke in a very 'this-is-not-Asuka' voice.
"Just say it, I won't get mad. Promise." She then smiled. A serene smile that's very different from the smirk that she always does.
I nodded, still blushing terribly. "The truth is I just want to hold you close to me." She giggled. "Why?"
"That's it? Heh heh." I nodded again. then she tightened her hold on my neck as she leaned in to kiss me when she suddenly stopped. "Neh? Is my breath tickling you again?" I then remember our first lousy kiss. I could've enjoy it if she didn't pinch my nose.
"She shook her head as our lips began to brush slightly. "It's just that I don't want the two of us sick. I could catch that fever if I kiss you." she said before backing her head. She then smile.
"Just wait okay?." Then she blinked at me before standing up. "I'll go get a paracetamol for you. Just wait in here okay?" she's out of the room when she popped her head inside.
"Oh and Shin-kun, we could share in that bed. Don't worry I'm 100 sure you'll be able to see the sun shining brightly tomorrow." Then she's out of my view again. The sun? I think the rain's the best.

It's late at night and I can't find reasons to sleep. I touched my fore head to know that my fever's gone. "Asuka?"
"Hmnn.." she's not sleeping either.
"You can't sleep?"
"Uh-huh.."
"Can we talk?" she began to face me after I said that.
"What do you want to talk about?" she said while the only light coming from the window strikes her exquisite face.
"Your past?"
"You wouldn't want to know." She quickly answered back.
"Why not?"
"Just sleep Ikari." Why not? Misato said that she did have a bad past, maybe it's really hard to talk about that. "Okay.."
After some more minutes I was awaken by a sob. I opened my eyes to see Asuka's back facing me. "Asuka? Are you alright?" I touched her shoulder that made her quiver.
"Just go back to sleep Shinji.. it's nothing."
"But---."
"I SAID JUST GO BACK TO SLEEP! IT'S NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS!"
"NO." I said plainly. "Tell me what happened. Stop being a bitch Asuka. Tell me what the hell happened and your crying! Bullshit!" it's the first time I cursed at her.
After minutes I'm holding a crying girl on my arms.
"I hate her Shinji! I hate her!"
"Shhh.. just forget it Asuka.." she told me about her past and that includes her mother. After some more minutes she did stop crying but not sleeping though.
"You still can't sleep?" I asked her before yawing.
"No. I don't want to go back to sleep. What if I'll see her again on my dreams?.. I… she's.. argh! I don't want to sleep!"
"Fine! Calm down. Just rest."
"Sometimes I can't help but to wish to die."
"What?"
"Back then, I should've wish to kami-sama to die. I don't want to feel this feelings anymore."
"Shut up! dying is not the perfect solution to your problems Asuka-chan. And after all your not alone----."
"I'm alone! and will always be alone and I hate it! Ending it all was the most easiest solution----."
Her sentence was cut off when I cupped her chin with my right hand and I began to kiss her fully on the mouth. After that I quickly rolled over on top of her, grabbing her wrists and holding them beside her head. She let out a squeak of surprise, her voice locking in her throat. Maybe her cheeks were the color of her hair now. I broke away from the kiss.
"Gomen ne.."
"Shut up! Can you stop being a wimp! It's annoying."
"Fine. Just remember this. You're not alone cause I'll be with you no matter what."
With that I kissed her again, deeper, harder, longer and with more aggression. And the rest history. But we didn't have 'sex' okay. Just some make out session.

Asuka's head aches so Shinji called the attendant to tell him that they can't eat in the cafeteria and if it's okay to just deliver the food in their room.
"No problemo Sir.." the attendant said.
"Hope you didn't mind."
"No not at all. Morning sickness neh? Maybe you should check that to a doctor right away.." he said.
"Maybe.."
"Maybe she's just pregnant.." I shrieked.
"Nani! Iie! We just—I mean---."
"It's your honey moon right? How sweet… I remember when me and my wife—blah.. blah.. blah.." I just sighed knowing that I can't explain for he can't seem to finish his babble and I don't want to burst it.
I came back to the room carrying the tray of food.
"What took you so long…" I began to set the food in the table.
"Just had a conversation with the attendant.." then she began to bite at the sandwhich.
"Afout whaf?"
"Not that important." Then she ran to the bathroom as she began vomiting I mean as she spit the food mumbling. "What was that food! Yuck!"
"We didn't do anything last night, did we?" I said as I continue to eat.

"Ja ne."
"You'll leave now sir?"
"uh-huh.. thanks for your service anyway.."
"No problem.."
Finally the rain did stop. I was about to close the door when he said.. "BEST WISHES TO YOU AND TO YOUR CHILD!" I just blinked at him.
"What was he saying Shinji?" Asuka asked. I didn't told her about that. Heh heh. Cuz I don't know the way she'll react. "Nothing. Don't mind him." Then the prediction suddenly entered my mind. Maybe it's not that bad. But I think, what happened between me and Asuka, it's just because of… destiny neh? Again corny. Whatever. But am really happy we're not just friend but more than that.

End?
"Where are we going?" a certain blue haired girl was being drag by Misato. "You'll see."
"Good afternoon. What do you need?" said the strange woman wearing a black silk dress. I think she's 10 years older than Misato-san. She had a long black hair, green eyes, tan skin, long finger nails and black lips.
Misato just grinned and Rei became more pale.
