Kenji was struggling to say the least. But he hid it well. You’ve been best friends with him for years and yet you know barely anything about his past. All you know if that Castle saved him when he was very young. Just like how Castle saved you and brought you to Omega Point.
But now Omega Point was gone. Blown up, destroyed. So many people dying.
After a long fight against the reestablishment Juliette became supreme commander. Castle was feeling better after the initial shock of losing everything passed.
One night everything that Kenji has been bottling up and keeping to himself for years just burst out. He sobbed in his room that was assigned to him at the sector 45 base for hours.
After a while he finally gave in and somehow made his way to your room, needing the comfort of his best friend/the girl he’s hopelessly in love with.
“P-Princess…?” He mumbles as he pulls your sheets away from your face. He sits down in your bed, tears streaming down his face.
