Shinji's Gift of Love
Chapter 3
The next morning Shinji and Arael woke up at the same time. When they woke up next to each other they were surprised but they remembered about last night. When they remembered they smiled at each other and then kissed each other. They then got at of bed got dressed and went to the kitchen. When they walked into the kitchen Shinji went to start cooking breakfast for them. After the food was done cooking Shinji put all of the food on the table.
"Arael."
"Yes Shinji-kun."
"Since its Saturday what do you want to do?"
"Can we walk around the park?"
Sure I would love to."
After they were done eating they left to enjoy Mother Nature. As they were walking hand in hand they came across a little girl sitting on a bench by herself. When they saw this they looked at each other and then went over to the little girl.
"Hello little one where are your parents?" asked Arael
"I don't have any." said the girl
After they heard that Arael and Shinji looked at each other.
"What is your name little one?" asked Shinji
"My name is Moka." she said
"It's nice to meet you. My name is Shinji, and this is Arael. My girlfriend."
"Hello."
"Would you like to join us for our walk?" asked Arael.
"C-Can I?"
After she asked that she and Arael looked at Shinji who just nodded at them with a smile. When Moka saw this she jumped off of the bench and took both of their hands into her own. If anyone looked at them they would see the happy smiles on their faces. After a few hours of walking and playing it was getting dark.
"Moka where do you live?" asked Arael
"I don't have anywhere to live." said Moka sadly
"Well then I guess you will be living with us then." said Shinji
When he said that both Arael and Moka looked at him surprised.
"She can?" asked Arael
"If she wants to that is."
After he said that Moka tackled him to the ground crying into his chest while saying "thank you" over and over. After a while the crying stopped when Shinji checked he found that she has fallen asleep. When he saw this he smiled so he carefully picked her up. After he picked her up he and Arael started to head home. After they got home Shinji turned to Arael.
"I'm going to put this little one to bed." said Shinji
"Ok, I'm going to get ready for bed too." said Arael
"I'll join you later."
"Ok."
After that Shinji went up stairs to put Moka to bed. When he got up stairs he went to the empty bedroom that is next to his room. As he was placing her into the bed she woke a little and she looked at him with a smile on her face.
"Good night daddy."
After he heard that he went stiff and wide eyed but he relaxed a few seconds later. "Good night Moka-chan."
After he said that he left after she went back to sleep and went to bed. When he got to the room Arael was sitting on the bed waiting for him. Arael looked at him when she did she saw that he was deep in thought about something.
"Shinji-kens what are you thinking about?" "Huh. Oh, sorry. It was about what Moka-chan called me."
"What was that?"
"She called me daddy."
When she heard that her eyes went wide then she started to giggle.
"What?"
"Sorry. It's just cute that she called you her daddy."
After they were done talking they went to bed. Three years has passed since that day. It's now the day of Arael's 18th Birthday and Shinji has something planed for her that she will love.
"Arael-chan you know that I love you right."
"Yes."
"Then I got something to ask you."
After she heard him say that she watched as he got down on one knee. When she saw this her eyes went wide.
"Arael I love you with all of my heart and soul. Before I met you I was alone, suffering and unloved for eleven years but that all changed once you came into my life. I have never been so happy and live in my life. So I'm happy to ask you this. Arael will you marry me?" asked Shinji
As he was talking she was shocked at what was happening right now. After he was done talking she was crying by his words that she couldn't help it but she answered after a few moments.
"Y-Yes. Yes, I will marry you."
After she said that he slipped the ring onto her right ring finger. When the ring was on he got up and pulled her into a deep passionate kiss. After they pulled back Arael looked at the ring. The ring itself was beautiful. The ring is made out of solid gold with a beautiful diamond set in the middle with smaller diamonds set around it. After they enjoy the moment for a few more minutes they started to head home for the night. A few months later it was Moka's 8th Birthday. After a few hours of doing what she wanted to do they head home to have cake and presents. Well Moka-chan we got one more present for you." said Shinji
"What is it?"
After she asked Arael handed her a folded piece of paper. When she opened the paper she read what it said and when she did her eyes went wide in surprised and she started to cry. The reason why she's crying is because the paper is an adopting sheet saying that she was adopted by Shinji and Arael. After 6 months Shinji and Arael were married, and after 2 years Arael gave birth to a baby girl and they named her Momo Ikari.
