Kit was messed up. He knew that. Tails knew that. Yet Tails still loved him. Making sure he was okay. Making sure he was on the path to recovery and not losing himself in everything. It was easy too. But with Tails, it was a bit more difficult. A lot more difficult. Maybe it was his people pleasing personality, but Kit didn't want to disappoint her.
But unlike Surge, Tails treated him as an equal. He didn't know why, but he wasn't about to complain. So he stuck to Tails like glue, Tails seemed to actually care for him and that was a good thing. Better than he has ever been treated before, by anyone. That last part made him feel sad but he has Tails now.
Maybe he ended up like Tails a bit too much, a crush emerged. A big one. An extremely big one. Maybe a bit too obvious, at least that's what Kit felt. He felt a lot due to Tails. Happiness, Prosperity, Respect. All of it he loved. Maybe he likes the attention, but that didn't really matter. So he kept going, seeking attention.
One day Kit sat next to Tails and snuggled up to her. The other didn't seem to notice, at least for a little while.
"When did you get here?" Tails asks.
"Been here, what are you working on?"
"Oh simple filtering system, water stuff for the people who's pipes were destroyed and they can't get clean water."
"Wow, alright. Don't let me bother you."
"You're not a bother Kit."
"Thanks, Tails, I love you."
"Love you too." Tails says unconsciously, then when she realizes, she turns back to Kit. Who's resting on her Tails. She goes back to work, guess they'll have to talk about this when he wakes up from his nap.
