Silence is Golden
Asuka opened her eyes an after taking a moment to gaze around she
noticed she was in the hospital. She turned her head over to one side,
wincing in slight pain, raised a hand to her cheek, and felt soft
cotton taped. Taking a moment to adjust her vision, she saw Shinji
standing a few feet away from her, a look of deep concern in his eyes.
Asuka closed and opened her eyes, not feeling her body at all.
"Shinji?" Her voice was in a whisper. "Don’t move, Asuka, you’ve been
badly hurt," he responded calmly. "What happened?" She asked, not
being able to remember a thing, her head aching. Shinji stayed silent
for a moment. Taking a deep breath, he slowly walked up to Asuka,
kneeled beside her, gazing deeply into her clear blue eyes.
"Asuka, do you remember anything that’s happened before you ended up
here?" He asked calmly, his voice having a shaky tone. It took all of
Asuka’s strength to shake her head, her memory an extremely fuzzy
state. Shinji hesitated, then finally spoke, "It was our worst angel
attack ever. We…..we almost lost you….." He shook a little. Asuka
stayed silent as she listened, then nodded. "The Angel attacked you
before any of us could react in time. From what it looked like, it was
raping your mind……..you were begging for it to stop, but wouldn’t. You
were helpless. The Angel destroyed your limb. You were down. I tried
to attack it until………until…….." Asuka looked at him, her strength
slowly returning.
"Shinji…..what happened next?" She struggled to turn her body over. "I
said don’t move!" Shinji said with more force in his voice. <He sounds
just like his father> Asuka thought to herself as she obeyed. Shinji
took another deep breath, making sure to make Asuka feel too
uncomfortable, and keeping his distance. He locked eyes with hers,
which nearly caused him to blush, but he fought it back. "Before I or
anyone else at NERV could react……Rei struck." He made a face like he
had just seen a ghost. Asuka didn’t move. "It was a horrible sight,"
Shinji continued. "She tore the Angel literally to shreds, like a lion
attacking a baby zebra. We were all just stunned, staring, feeling
sick to the stomach, and while it was going on, I heard these very
words from her very mouth, "……You killed her……you killed her……the only
person whom I had ever cared about during my existence…..how could
you……..I…….I….." he stopped and sighed deeply.
Asuka was stunned. She stared at him as if he was an Angel himself.
"Rei…..Wonder Girl……she….actually……said that?" Shinji took another
deep breath and nodded. "And…..the last thing she said before she
destroyed the Angel completely was……" Asuka could feel her heart
racing and beating loud enough for both of them to hear. "……….I loved
her." He finally finished. Asuka blinked several times at those three
words. After thinking it over, she finally understood everything.
"Rei…….said all that?" Shinji nodded. "Loud and clear, Asuka." She
fell silent for a moment. "Where is she now?"
"When we were able to find, rescue and put you in this room, my father
told her. She smiled. She actually smiled. If I didn’t know any
better, I’d say she was overwhelmed," he smiled softly. "I had never
seen her display such happy emotion. Here, she asked me to give you
this," he slipped out a folded piece of paper and handed it to Asuka.
"She had asked me not to read it. I just had to respect her wishes."
Asuka was impressed at Shinji’s modesty and even felt just a tiny bit
guilty at the way she used to treat him. "Shinji, will you please read
it to me? I don’t feel strong enough to do it myself," she asked
calmly.
"Of course, Asuka," he agreed, opened the note, and read just loud
enough for Asuka to hear:
"Asuka, I am so happy that you’re alive. I know that I haven’t been
showing any real emotion to anyone else other than Commander
Ikari…….until I met you. I should be mad for the way you’ve been
treating me, calling me a doll with no emotion or purpose other than
doing what the commander tells her…..but…..I just could
never….something inside of me is keeping me from hating you, let alone
dislike you……I just can’t……I’m quite confused of this new feeling……I
like you, Asuka……I like you a lot. You’re the other reason why I
appreciate my own existence even more…….." Shinji widened his eyes as
he read the last few lines. "…..whenever I’m near you, I feel
stronger….but I kept silent because……..I love you. When you’re strong
enough, please come see met at my apartment. "
Shinji blinked at the note. "Wow…..I never realized Rei was like that.
Not to be rude but I never thought she would be able to have those
kinds of feelings for someone like you….." he glanced at Asuka and
noticed the shocked look on her face. "Asuka? Are you all right?" He
quickly got a cup of water and gave it to her , who sat up as he held
the cup for her. "Take your time, don’t drink so fast.." he said
calmly. She drank the water rather slowly, her eyes a little dreary.
She relaxed, licking her lips. Shinji watched, tossing the cup into
the wastebasket. He was about to toss away the note when Asuka stopped
him.
"Wait, let me have it, please. I want to take it with me to Rei when I
go to her apartment." Shinji nodded and handed her the note. Asuka
laid back down and closed her eyes. As Shinji turned to leave, he
heard Asuka mumble in her sleep, "Shinji…….thank you……….Wonder
Girl…….."
She laid in bed. It was Saturday evening. The sky had turned a dark
orange outside her window. It had been weeks since the last attack.
She had been waiting for her arrival since then, waiting day after
day, both in school and at home. She was all she could ever think
about, always on her mind, that red hair, those cool blue eyes, that
fiery personality……she knew why. Just as she was about to give up
hope, the doorbell rang. Her heart in her throat, she got up, walked
to the door and opened it. She gasped at who it was. "Asuka?" she
whispered, as if this were a dream. The German girl was alive and
well, in her school uniform, whereas Rei was wearing a white tank top
and jean shorts, nothing else. Her eyes locked with Asuka’s, whose
expression was rather unreadable. Rei motioned for her to enter with a
wave of her hand.
Both girl sat on the bed, silent, not looking at each other, their
backs turned. Asuka pulled up her knees, and unbeknownst to Rei, was
clutching the note out of view. Rei sat at the edge, not knowing what
to say. After about ten minutes of silence, Rei spoke up, "I’m so glad
you came." Asuka didn’t respond, staring into space, the note still in
her hands. Rei thought for a moment, then asked quietly, "Asuka, what
do you know about love?"
Asuka blinked. After much thought and consideration, she silently
moved over to Rei and gently draped her arms over the girl’s
shoulders. Before she could react Asuka whispered into her ear, "I can
show you so much more, Wonder Girl." It was Rei’s turn to blink, until
she heard the sound of Asuka removing her clothes, then it stopped.
Slowly she glanced over her shoulder, and widened her eyes when she
saw that Asuka was nude. Rei was stunned, not knowing what was going
on, until she saw the odd gleam in Asuka’s eyes, her clothes all over
the floor. Rei understood, and removed her own clothes, tossing them
on the floor as well. "Asuka…..I don’t….." Asuka moved in closer and
placed a finger on Rei’s lips. "Shhhhhh…..it’s okay. I won’t hurt you,
Rei, just lay down."
Rei took a moment to study Asuka’s body, and felt her heart racing,
then laid down. Smiling, Asuka crawled over until she was on top of
Rei, locking eyes with her. Rei blushed a little. Asuka leaned in for
a very deep and passionate kiss. Rei blushed hotly, as the kiss
electrified through her body, her mind reeling. Asuka broke the kiss
and smiled, licking her lips, then whispered into her ear, "You saved
my life, Wonder Girl, and this is how I am going to show my
appreciation," she nibbled softly on Rei’s ear before kissing on her
neck, and dropped the note on the floor. Rei had never felt like this
before, but something deep within her heart told her that this is
exactly what she has longed for in such a long time. She moaned softly
in pleasure, and reached out her hands, not knowing if she wanted to
touch Asuka’s beautiful body, only letting her fingers to gently trace
the surface. Asuka noticed this and whispered more hotly, "Touch me,
Wonder Girl, touch me anywhere." she kissed down Rei’s shoulder. Rei
shivered slightly in pleasure, then softly stroked Asuka’s breasts,
cupping them and squeezing gently. She has never felt anything so soft
and warm, as Asuka’s body presses against hers. Asuka moans softly,
"Oh yes. Touch me there." she smiled and kissed Rei deeply. She moaned
in the kiss, her hands now rubbing up and down Asuka’s smooth back.
Asuka broke the kiss and gently licked Rei’s breasts, teasing with her
tongue. Rei let out a passionate gasp. "Oh, Asuka!"
Asuka continued licking, and sucked gently on one of her breasts.
"Mmmmmm…such a sweet taste you have…" she licked softly. Rei slowly
arched her back and moaned out loud in pleasure, her hands now
stroking down Asuka’s sides. The German girl sucked on Rei’s other
breast, and moved her hand to softy rub Rei’s vagina. Rei immediately
felt pleasure building up within her vagina, and moaned out Asuka’s
name. Asuka stopped and gazed deeply into her eyes. Rei looked back
and smiled. "God, you have such beautiful eyes, Wonder Girl," Asuka
said she found herself lost in them. "Asuka," Rei softly moaned and
ran her fingers through her friend’s hair. Asuka moaned softly and
slowly rubbed her hips and vagina against Rei’s. Both girls moaned out
in pleasure. "Oh, Asuka! Oh, yes! I love you!" Rei cried out as she
bumped back. "Rei…..oh yes……this feels so good…..don’t stop…..I love
you too…." Asuka could feel powerful orgasms triggering within her
vagina.
Rei cried out as she felt very powerful orgasms exploding within her
body, her body now shining in sweat as she holds onto Asuka, still
grinding and bumping. Asuka screamed in pleasure, and finally
collapses next to Rei, panting heavily, feeling extremely powerful
orgasmic aftershocks, her body sweating as she locks eyes with Rei.
Rei was doing the same thing, breathing heavily and reaches out a hand
to touch Asuka’s face. Asuka smiled as she breathed, "Wonder
Girl…….that was……..incredible…….."
Rei smiled. "I love you, Asuka…..with all my heart………" she moved in
closer and wrapped an arm around Asuka’s body, softly stroking her
cheek. "You are beautiful." Asuka blushed and cups Rei’s chin in her
hands, kissing her softly. "I love you too, Rei. If it hadn’t been for
you I would still be dead," she smiled and pulled up the sheets,
keeping her eyes locked with Rei’s. Rei smiled and leaned in closer.
"Asuka….." Asuka placed a finger on Rei’s lips. "Shhh…..it’s all
right….your silence is all I need……."
