Suppresed Emotions, Hidden Desires,

Chapter Two: The Natural Attraction

Enjoy.

Shinji awoke, and saw her. Asuka was lying there, her arms still wrapped around him. He smiled, and pulled her body to his. He stroked her hair, and he kissed her forehead. Soon, Shinji heard her yawn, which sounded like the call of a dove. Shinji let her go, and drew away from her slightly. She opened her eyes, and smiled at Shinji. She then pulled towards him, and raised her face to his. They kissed lightly, as they knew they couldn't be like this for long. After a few minutes, they knew they'd be alone. Asuka pushed her face onto his, making him push back. They were enjoying this, but Shinji took it too far. Asuka felt his hands leave her back, and rub up her sides, which gave her goosebumps. Her eyes widened, and she felt his hands move up near her chest. She pulled away from him, and covered her chest with her hands.

"What the HELL do you think you're doing!" She bellowed. He hadn't meant to reach near her chest. He honsetly didn't know what he was doing while they were kissing. He was focusing on her, and not where his other appendages were.

"Asuka...I swear...I didn't mean...to...do that. I swear!" Shinji was almost on his knees. He placed his hand on her shoulder, and walked up behind her. He kissed the side of her neck, making her gasp.

"I swear...on my honor...I could never lie to you, Asuka..." He said, wrapping his arms around her waist. She widened her eyes, and opened her mouth to speak, but never did. She just stood there, tears flowing down her cheeks, as the boy she loved with all her soul stood behind her, kissing both sides of her neck. She finally lifted his hands off her shoulders, and spun around, to face him. They finally kissed the right way. Their tears mingled as they rolled down their faces, and Asuka broke the kiss.

"Ahh...das suse tranen auf liebe, the sweet tears of love..." She said, wiping her eyes. She then did something strange. She rubbed the finger she had wiped the tears with across her lips. She then kissed Shinji again. He had never experienced anything like that before. The kiss was sweet, like a spoonful of sugar, yet salty at the same time. He loved that feeling. "Something about her...I want. But, I can't put my finger on it..." He thought. They walked out of the room, and saw that the apartment was deserted. They had the house to themselves. "How nice!" Shinji said innocently. "Yeah...how nice of her to give us some privacy..." Asuka mumbled devilishly. Shinji was wondering about what Asuka could talk him into. Shinji sat next to her on the couch, and they flipped on the T.V.

They watched a game show for a while, then flipped through the movie channels. Asuka stopped on a romance movie. It was a scene where the two stars were making out. Shinji thought back to that morning, and blushed deeply. He drew his knees to his chest, and pulled the collar of his shirt up to his nose. He looked at Asuka. She was looking at him intently. She began running her finger over her lips, and she crawled over to Shinji. She drew his collar down, and kissed him, falling over, with Asuka on top, holding his head firmly on her lips. Shinji kissed her back, and he melted into her. He grabbed her arms, and rolled her over. He went limp, and his body carressed hers. They stayed like that for several minutes. Shinji broke the silence.

"Asuka, why don't we go someplace...more private than the living room?" He offered. She accepted.

"Okay Shinji..." She said, standing up.

They walked to Asuka's room, and laid down on her bed beside each other. Asuka closed her eyes, and pursed her lips. Shinji closed the gap between them. A jolt of static electricity shot through their lips, making Asuka reel away from him. She quickly pushed her lips back onto his, not minding the tingling sensation. They kissed, and, after a while, began exchanging gentle, loving words.

"Asuka...I needed you more than ever when you were asleep. I was a nervous wreck. Now that you're awake..." He couldn't finish the sentence. His eyes began overflowing with tears. Asuka wiped some off of his cheek, and again, rubbed the finger on her lips. "It's okay, Shinji...no need to cry..." Shinji looked at her, and she lurched forward. Again, when their lips met, it felt like a mixture of a spoonful of sugar, yet a pinch of salt. He opened his mouth to let his tongue out, and he licked her lips. She moaned, and she opened her mouth. Their tongues tangled, and soon, they drew away from each other again. "That felt...amazing, Shinji." Asuka cooed.

"You think so? How about this..." He replied smugly. He rolled her over so she was facing the bedroom door. What Shinji did then made every inch of her flesh tighten. He nibbled on her ear, making her gasp, and shudder. He sucked her earlobe, tongued it, and chewed it for what seemed like an eternity. Finally he stopped, and Asuka melted. Her whole body relaxed, and she spoke in shivering gasps.

"Auch...mein gott...that felt...amazing..." She rolled back over to look at him, and he was flushed beet red, and was smiling. Asuka sooned turned red herself, and they just sat there, wrapped up in each other, staring each other in the eyes. They leaned in for another kiss, when Misato got back from all-night duty at NERV. She bolted into Asuka's room, and saw the two of them. Asuka issued a suprised gasp, and pulled her arms back to her chest. Shinji simply sat there, now an even deeper shade of red. Misato backed out slowly, and closed the door. Shinji stood up, and was walking towards the door when Asuka called to him. "Shinji, please don't go out there. I...I don't wanna have to explain to her why she caught us like that." He could tell she was embarased. Although, they had a secret weapon. They had caught her and Kaji like that before. Shinji didn't tell her that, and walked out the door. In the living room, Misato was pacing back and forth, and finally, when she saw Shinji, started tapping her foot, and spoke.

"Well? Don't I get an explanation?" She fumed. Shinji started to speak, and he heard the door behind him open.

"Misato, we were just doing what lovers do, that's all. I mean it." He spoke lightly, as he knew she was behind him.

"Since when are you two lovers?" Misato stamped her foot. Shinji smiled and said something that threw Misato off guard.

"Ever since we took after you and Kaji. Is that so bad?" Shinji said. He turned, and walked down the hall, snickering to himself. Misato wouldn't question them any further if she knew that they knew about her and Kaji's...intimate relationship. Shinji opened the bathroom door, closed it, and locked it for good measure. He exited a minute later, and walked back down the hall to the living room. Misato was curled up on the couch with a Yebisu. He looked away from her, and tried to focus on the T.V. He was slightly red from looking at Misato. Her very short shorts came down to about her higher hip, and they were very tight. Her shirt was okay, exept for the fact that it was very loose. Looking at her from the angle he's at he could just see the bottom of her right...! "NO! I'm in love with Asuka, not this drunken freak...and her freakishly large breasts." He walked back to his room, and rammed the bugs of his SDAT into his ears. He needed to relax, as the state he was in would NOT please Asuka. He was listening to a cello song, which wasn't unusual, and he soon fell into a light relaxed dose. He was shaken out of it by Asuka. "Come on Shinji-kun, it's time for dinner."

"Okay, let me find something to---what's so funny?" He asked as Asuka began laughing.

"No, no, Misato cooked. She saved you the trouble." Shinji gulped as Asuka finished her sentence. Misato never cooked very well. She burnt everything if it was meat, and she only knew how to cook instant noodles without at least burning her fingers. Suprisingly, Misato's hands, Shinji saw as Asuka led him out, weren't wrapped in gauze, and the food wasn't just noodles. She had fried some different vegetables and threw them in the noodles, and also had done up some chicken. "DIG IN! It's good so I expect almost everything to be gone afterwards okay?" They nodded in unison as she downed her fifth Yebisu that day. She crunched the can, and tossed it onto the pile in the garbage can. They ate, and, to her credit, it WAS pretty good.

After they finished, Shinji took his spot at the kitchen sink to wash dishes. He was quickly pushed out of the way by Misato, who started to wash dishes. "Go hang with Asuka, I've got these."

"Oh...thanks Misato!" Shinji said as he threw his arms around her neck, then quickly let go. He went into Asuka's room to find her wearing the same type of clothes as Misato. He climbed in bed besie her, and they began kissing, not quick pecks and longer ones now and then, they were making lip contact for almost a minute. Shinji was close to overflowing. They way she was dressed, the way her chest pushed on him, made him want to make love to her right then and there. He restrained himself, and waited until Asuka spoke. "Shinji...you want more than this, don't you?"

He looked away, almost ashamed. She then made him face her, and began to kiss her again. He then took it over the edge. The dam that was pure will power gave way to the raging water of desire, in a flood of passion. He reached down, and grabbed the bottom of her shirt. She didn't care, but she took notice of it when he started lifting her shirt. All worries subsided when he stopped, but came back, as he began to remove her shorts. She was now worried, worried that her love may do something terrible to her. He went slow, as if to give her time to adjust to this. He got her shorts down to her knees, and began to take off her shirt.

"..."

"..."

"...Stop Shinji." She spoke as they broke for air.

He didn't. He pushed a little harder, and soon, her shirt was resting on her collarbone. He reached around, and began removing her bra. She realized what was happening, and she pulled away from him, and spoke, fear lingering on every syllable. "Shinji, I said STOP. Now please, wait for this. We aren't there yet..." He had almost fully removed her bra, when she stepped in. She grabbed her arms, and spoke, now anger mixed with her fear. "Shinji, stop. Now, please. Just a few more days, and we can do this. I promise." She pleaded. His hands left her bra, and he let go of her. He then reached down, and grabbed right below her hips, as if trying to stop her from moving. Her heart raced, and skipped a beat when she slapped Shinji out of his trance. He opened his sky blue eyes, and looked at her. Asuka was frightened. He looked as if it were anger on his face, and she began weeping. Shinji reached forward to hold her, and was slapped away. "Get...out...please..." Asuka said, between shuddering gasps of air. Shinji went to his room, after a quiet goodnight to Misato. Shinji sat down, and undressed, then changing into a comfortable shirt, sobbed into his pillow. He cursed himself over and over again, wondering if Asuka would ever trust him, or grant him a kiss. Ever again.

End.
