Even Heros Need Saving Every Once in a While

I decided to stop by Jelly's on my way home from work Tuesday, but when I knocked on the door no one answered. I decided to just let myself in. I walked into an empty living room, the kitchen was dark, as was Jelly's room. No one appeared to be home. I decided to take a shower and wait for Jels to come home.
My hair dripped on the clothes in the drawer as I searched through the dresser for something to wear. I was just pulling my shirt over my head when I heard something in the next room. I crept up to Kit and TwoBit's door and pressed my ear against it. I heard soft sobs...someone was crying. I opened the door to find Kit curled up on the bed squeezing a pillow to her chest and sobbing into it.
I had heard about TwoBit and Marcia, heck so did the whole neighborhood. Kit appeared to be okay about it, she didn't approve of course, but it didn't appear to be something she was going to stress over. I heard her conversations with the various people in the gang, and her response was always along the lines of "I'm okay, it's forgiven, we'll be fine." Then she'd close it with a soft smile, but a smile I could see right through. I don't even know if Jelly noticed it, but when Kit cut back on eating again, I knew something was up.
Kit didn't turn when I walked in, she just continued to face the opposite wall. I ran a hand through her hair, tucking it behind her ear,
"Oh, Kitten." I said softly as I lifted her all to easily, pulling her to my chest as I leaned back against the headboard.
She didn't talk at first, I just let her cry it out. I ran my thumb under her eyes brushing off the tears,
"Your obviously not fine like you told everyone...you can't be the hero all time Kitten, you gotta be the one that needs saving every once in a while."
Her sobs were getting shorter, she laid her head in my lap and looked up at me.
"I know," her voice cracked, "..it's just... I'm stronger than this.. I don't let things like this get to me Dim, there's no need in crying over something...it doesn't change anything." she said.
"Your right, it doesn't, but the good lord wouldn't have made tears if he didn't intend us to use them." I smiled. "You have every right to be upset though Kit, he messed up, but you have his love, and that's something I know he won't ever give to any other woman." I wasn't just saying it to make her feel better, I know TwoBit and I know he loves Kit more than anything, and that's something that can't be destroyed by one mistake.
"Ya know sometimes I feel like I have to be the strong one, the one that's going to make everything okay, but truth is I've cried myself to sleep plenty of times... I did when Elena left and went back to Cali, when that bastard at the DX got a hold of Jelly, when I thought about her being hit by that car instead of me, human beings were made to cry, it's as simple as that. Hell Kit you don't have to prove to any of us that you haven't gone soft...the day KitKat Curtis goes soft will be the day the whole world goes to hell." I laughed and she broke a smile.
"Yeah, I guess." she said.
"Yeah? Well I KNOW."
she sighed. "So...want to get drunk and dance in our underwear till Jelly comes home and finds us passed out on the kitchen table?" I suggested.
Kitty laughed, "Sounds like a plan."
