Shinji's Gift of Love

Chapter 2

In the morning on the first day of the third month Shinji woke to the smell of food being cook. So Shinji then got out of bed got dressed and went to the kitchen. When he got to the kitchen he sees Arael cooking themselves some breakfast.

"Arael, I didn't know you could cook."

"Yeah, before I died my mother touch me how to cook."

"Were you happy with your family?"

"Yeah I loved my family and they loved me too."

"I wished I had a family like that."

After Shinji said that Arael put their breakfast on the table and started to eat. After they were done eating Shinji looked up at the clock and his eyes went wide.

"SHIT! I'm late for school."

He went up to Arael kissed her on the check grabbed his lunch and ran out of the door. After a few minutes of running he finally made it to class before the teacher showed up. When he walked into class the room silence and all of the eyes where on him as Asuka stormed up to him and she was pissed.

"Where the hell were you?" yelled Asuka

"None of your damn business Hothead." Shinji said calmly

After he said that he walked past her and went to his seat and waited for class to start. When he sat down everyone was just looking at him like he had two heads now. Just then the teacher walked into the room and Hikari went through the class rotten of stand-bow-sit then the teacher called row. Later on in the day Shinji is sitting at his desk thinking about Arael when the bell rang signaling that lunch as started with that he got his lunch and went outside and sat under a tree. After he was done eating he laid back under the tree and started to think of how much better his life is now the he is with Arael. As he was relaxing outside his friends were inside their classroom talking.

"What the hell is his problem?" asked Asuka as she looked out of the window at Shinji.

Then she turned around and looked at the others and saw that they were looking at her.

"What?"

"Maybe you should go ask hm for yourself." said Hikari

"That is not a good idea." stated Rei

"Agreed." said Toji with Kensuke nodding his head in agreement

"Who the hell asked you three?" yelled Asuka

"Huh. You did." remarked Kensuke

"Shut the hell up."

I'm going to see what his problem is."

With that Asuka walked out of the room and the others quickly followed her. When they got to where Shinji was relaxing Asuka stormed up to him and started to yell at him.

"What the hell is your fucking problem earlier?" yelled Asuka

When he did not respond to her question she stated to get angrier and her face was red. When the others saw that she was getting piss they started to back away from her.

"Answer my damn question you baka?"

When she yelled that time everyone that was outside were looking toward the scene. Even though she was yelling he still did not answer her. When she saw this she was beyond piss now. So she got in his face and start yelling, but what happened next shock everyone.

THUD!

Asuka full onto the ground after Shinji slapped her across the face which she is holding right now. After he slapped her he got up and glared at her which cause her to flinch at the look that he has in his eyes.

"What the hell is your fucking problem? Can't you see that I was fucking sleeping? Wait of course not you were too fucking busy yelling your fucking ass off to fucking notice you damn bitch." yelled Shinji

After he was done yelling everyone was shocked about what just happened. Shinji who was always quiet just yelled like no tomorrow. What's more shocking is the he yelled at Asuka and she just sat there and did nothing.

"Asuka I got advice for you. Change your fucking attitude."

"Why?" asked Asuka quietly

"Cause if you don't change your attitude you will be alone for the rest of your life with no one to grow old with, no one to love, and no one to have a family with. Another reason why if you don't you will become like Misato."

After he said that Asuka's eyes went wide when she thinks about it and it is all true.

"Shinji what do I need to do to change that?"

Shinji just shucked his head.

"I can't help you with this you have to do that yourself."

With that he turned around and started walking away.

"Shinji, where are going?" asked Toji

"Going home to my girlfriend."

When he said that Toji, Kensuke, and Rei looked at each other.

"WHAT!"

"When did he get a girlfriend?" asked Toji

"Since Sunday." stated Hikari

Then she told them about Shinji's girlfriend. While that was going on Shinji was walking home until his cell phone went off.

"Hello Shinji here."

"Shinji-kun Misato Katsuragi was here." stated Arael

"What how did she know where we live I haven't told anyone where I lived."

"I don't know, but can you come home."

"I am on my way home right now."

"Please hurry."

With that he hang the phone up and took off running to get back home. When he got home he quickly went in.

"Arael where are you?" yelled Shinji

"I'm in the living room."

"Arael-chan are you ok?" asked Shinji as he walked into the living room

When he got to the coach he sat down next to her and notice that she was looking away from him.

"Arael-chan what's wrong?"

"Nothing's wrong Shinji-kun."

"If there's nothing wrong then why aren't you looking at me then?"

After he said that she turned around to face him. When he saw her face he was pissed. He was pissed, because Arael has a black eye, a swollen chick, and a busted lip.

"Arael-chan did Misato do this to you?"

When he asked that she looked away from him.

"Arael-chan please tell me."

"Yes." she whisper

"Why did she do this to you for?"

"I attacked her."

"Why?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~FLASH BACK~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Coming." Arael said

"Hello who is it?"

Hello my name is Misato Katsuragi. I want to asked if Shinji Ikari life's here?" asked Misato

"Sorry no one by that name life's here."

SLAP!

"Don't lie to me; I know he life's here."

"What do you want with Shinji-kun?"

"I am here to take him back."

"Why so that he can do all of the cooking and cleaning."

"Yes."

After Misato said that Arael attacked her for what she said.

"You bitch Shinji-kun is not your slave."

"Yes he is why do you think that I gave him all of the chorus for in the first place."

When Arael heard that she was pissed so she hit Misato in the face a few times and the same for Misato.

"Get the hell out of here and never come back!"

"I will get him back!"

With that they went home.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~END FLASH BACK~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After Shinji hear that he was pissed. He stood up and starts walking towards the door.

"Where are you going?" asked Arael

"There's someone that I need to see. Oh, don't worry about cooking dinner I will be picking up dinner for us."

"Shinji-kun please be careful."

"Ok."

With that he left and head to his old apartment to see Misato. In half an hour he arrives at the apartment. When he got there he walked up to the door and knock. In a few seconds the door opened up to Asuka at the door.

"Shinji why are you here?" asked a surprised Asuka

"Can I come in?" asked Shinji

"Oh, yeah come in."

"Thanks, is Misato here?"

"Yeah and the others are here too."

"Others?"

"You know Rei, Hikari, Toji, and Kensuke."

"Oh yeah."

"So why are you here to see Misato for?"

"You'll see."

With that said they walked into the living room were the others are at. When they walked into the room the others were surprised to see Shinji in the apartment again. Before anyone could do anything Misato jumped off of the coach and jumped at Shinji.

"Shinji-kun you've come back!" shouted Misato

PUNCH!

CRASH!

When everyone saw Shinji punch Misato across the room they where surprised. Like everyone else she was wide eyed.

"Shinji-ku…" started Misato

"Don't you fucking dare call me 'Shinji-kun'. Better yet don't call me that ever again." stated Shinji

"Yo Shin-man what was that for?" asked Toji

"Yeah." the others said

Shinji then walked over to Misato who is standing by the glass door.

"Do you want to know?" asked Shinji

The others nodded their heads.

"Well first thing first all of you know that I have a girlfriend now right."

Another nod.

"Ok. Well when I was on my way home my girlfriend called me and asked if I can come home right away. When I got there I called out to her. She told me that she was in the living room. When I walked in there I saw her sitting on the coach. I sat down beside her and when I did I notice that she was not facing me. I asked her to face me and when she did I saw that she has a swollen chick, a black eye, and a busted lip, and the person that did that was Misato."

When he said that everyone were wide eye and their mouths were slacked.

"That's not all she told me that Misato called me her slave and the only reason why I lived here in the first place is because I can cook and clean and so that she doesn't have to do anything but being a lazy ass bitch."

Just then Misato spoke up.

"That whore took my slave away."

After she said that Shinji turned around and through his fist at her, but she ling back and the fist flow past her face.

CRASH!

DRIP!

DRIP!

Shinji's fist hit the glass door and shattered it and in the progress cuts his fist and blood was running down his fist on to the floor. Shinji then pulled his fist back turned and faced Misato with a growled and reach out and grabbed her by the head with his bloody hand. He pulled her toward him and when he did he hit the back of her neck and knocked her out. After she was out Shinji let her go and he turned around and walk into the kitchen to wash his hand. When he got to the sink he reach to turn on the water. After he turn the water on he went to put his hand in the water but someone grabbed his hand. When he look to see who grabbed his hand and it was Asuka who grabbed his hand.

"What you want Asuka?"

"I want to help."

"Why?"

"I want to be helpful unlike the way I was in the past."

"Okay."

After he said that she started washing and cleaning his hand. After she was done she wrapped his hand in some bandages.

"There you go Shinji."

"Thanks."

"Shinji."

"Yes."

"I'm sorry for how I was in the past."

After she said that everyone in the room were looking at her. When Shinji heard that he smiled at her and when Asuka saw that Shinji is smiling she started to smile too.

"It's ok just remember that you are not alone you got friends that is there to catch you when you fall. Remember that you got Hikari, Rei, Toji, Kensuke, and me as friends and we will help you if you ask or it looks like you need help."

After she heard that she looked around her. She saw that everyone that is around her are her friends. When she saw that she smiled a true smile.

"Thank you all of you."

When she said that everyone smiled.

"Well I got to go. Arael will start to get worried if I don't get home soon. So see yea tomorrow."

See yea." the other said

After he left the apartment he went and got some supper for Arael and himself. When he got back home Arael was waiting in the kitchen for him. As he walked in he held the bag of food up for her to see and when he did she saw that his right hand was bandaged up.

"Shinji-kun what happened to your hand?"

When she said that he explained everything that happened at the apartment. After he was done explaining everything they sat down at the table to eat and they said nothing to each other until they were done eating. When they were done they clean up the table and went to the living room when they got in there they went and sat down on the coach. When Shinji sat down Arael started kissing him deeply on the lips. At first he was surprised but he relaxed when he calmed down and started kissing her back. After a few minutes of kissing they broke apart to breath.

"Wow." Shinji said breathless

"Yeah."

After that they just relaxed into each other's embrace and their warmth and love. After awhile of sitting there Shinji looked at the clock and saw it says 11:30P.M.

"Come on Arael we need to get to bed it's almost midnight."

"Shinji-kun can I sleep with you to night?"

"Sure. If you want you can move your cloths into the room if you want too."

"Are you asking what I think you're asking?"

"Maybe, maybe not. It's how you look at it."

"I would love to move into your room."

When she said that Shinji smiled a true smiled. With that they started to move her stuff into his room which happens to be the Master Bedroom. After they were done they went to bed. After a few minutes of trying to relax they were able to relax into each others embrace and slept peacefully.
