SHINJI'S POV

The sun shines bright again
it's thick layer of beam
streams into my room
secure and happy

I sigh
is this like moving out?

-

I walk out the door
atleast Asuka isn't home until next week
she's staying at a friends place.

The roads were sprinkled with tiny potholes.

I arrive at the school doors
I push through and almost trip

students are supposed to move in today
I brought some of my stuff.

-

I got into my dormroom
except
it was someone elses,
too
I wonder what living together feels like,
stressful?

I look at the room
only one bedroom?
I walk in

two seperate beds were smushed together
whats the point of having two?

it's such a tiny room.
at least there were two seperate closets.
I sighed.

I heard the door open,
it creaked real bad
I saw a silhouette of a grey haired boy
That must be Kaworu.

"So i'm living here? What a small place."
The male said out loud
I dont think he realizes im here
I thought.

Kaworu walks in the tiny bedroom
I look up at him
pretty body, pretty everything
he's gorgeous

Wait.
Why am I thinking these things?
I brushed them off

"Hey, Shinji?"
Kaworu said, looking at me
he was so close
to me

"Oh- uhm, yeah?" I mumble,
looking away

"This room is so small, whats the point in sleeping in seperate beds?"
He paused.
"We can just connect them,
make a extra big bed."

I stared back at him now
my eyes widening
"What?"
my face felt hot

"Shall we do it, Shinji?"
Kaworu smiled sweetly

my heart was pounding
fiddling with my hands
"...sure"

I was so uncomfortable
it would get better
though, right ?

-

I cook scrambled eggs
I went out to get some food

although Kaworu offered to come,
I said no

setting the food on the plates,
I brought it to the little coffee table

"Thanks," he ate it
"This is really good, Shinji."

Kaworus eyes gleamed
they were so warm and kind
but
so
shallow
at the same time
