Chapter 3 TEASER

"SHINJI YOU PERVERT!"

Misato awoke with a start at the sounds of muffled shouting from the dining room. Her hands slowly felt around in the dark for her alarm clock and due to her disorientation it took quite a while to find something that was virtually right beside her. She groaned as she read the time.

-Jeez, its 4:30 in the damn morning! What the hell are they fighting about now?- she thought as she got up, rapidly getting angrier by the minute. She had never been a morning person and being jerked awake this way did wonders to heat her temper. By the time she threw her door open to reveal the pair as they yelled at each other she was practically seething.

"Would you two shut up! Some of us are trying to sleep!" Misato snapped.

Both Shinji and Asuka jumped in surprise at the sound of Misato's door violently hitting the wall. The redhead looked as if she herselfjust woke up. Her hair was disheveled, and the oversized pink cotton shirt that she wore,with its light yellow teddy bear stitched near the lower left corner, was apparently bed-wrinkled. Shinji, however, looked fresh out of the bath. His hair was slightly damp; he was wearing his shirt and shorts and had his equally damp towel draped over his neck.

"It's this pervert's fault!" Asuka began, pointing an accusing finger at the boy. "I just got up and was about to use the bathroom when I noticed him waiting inside, naked!"

"I WAS NOT WAITING INSIDE!" Shinji said hotly even before Asuka finished. "I was taking a bath when YOU walked in on ME!"

"Hmph. Yeah right. What kind of idiot takes a bath this early in the morning?" Asuka snorted, crossing her arms over her chest. "If I didn't know better I'd say that you were waiting for Faye-chan. I swear, living with four women finally pushed you over the brink and brought out the pervert in you."

"Hmm? Who was waiting for me?" Faye yawned.

Misato turned at the sound of the girl's voice and found her leaning against the open door to her room, covering her mouth with a hand. She wore a clinging, dark green nighty with matching silk shorts. A few moments later Rei emerged from her room as well; standing in matching light blue pajamas while rubbing her eyes sleepily.

"Shinji was. Right inside the bathroom, too." Asuka said smugly, ignoring Shinji's indignant sqwawk.

"It's your fault for not knocking!"

"I ALWAYS use the bathroom at this hour and I've NEVER knocked before."

"The lights were on, for crying out loud! You should have noticed that someone else was inside."

"How should I know? I thought Misato left it open before she went to bed. That's no excuse for you to go ambush me, you know."

"Why would I even bother waiting at the bathroom at this early? And who would want to 'ambush' you?"

"Cause you're a PERVERT!"

"Stupid girl!"

Misato rubbed her fingers around her temples as the shouting resumed. -Ohh, my head's starting to hurt. Damn kids.- she sighed. -This is starting to look like a very looong day.-
