Two months passed, and the bump in Vanilla's belly grew steadily larger. Seeing as how it was his child growing in her womb Tails moved in with Vanilla and Cream, bringing many of his machines and tools with him to create a brand new lab. Vanilla allowed him to sleep in the same bed, sometimes with Cream accompanying them. Many nights were spent cuddling together for warmth underneath the bed-sheets... among other things. Given that Tails was still a child despite his great intellect, Vanilla could not reveal to their friends who the father was, which might lead to harsh judgement and repercussions, and also to questions as to how the baby was conceived.

Over that same time-span Rouge the bat had mysteriously gone missing. The Sonic crew wasn't really worried about it at first because of her treasure hunting tendencies, but it was unusual for her to be gone this long without contacting anyone.

Tails worked on his shrinking machine near constantly, refitting it for a larger amount of passengers and greater comfort, fine tuning both software and hardware to make them far more efficient, and adding a few new features such as the ability to teleport out of danger and improved navigational systems. He tireless work had given him a lot of time to think, and he slowly grew more accustomed to Vanilla's strange tastes, even coming to enjoy them.
He still didn't know how he felt in involving Cream in their adventures but she was exposed to too much and it was far too late to turn back now. Somehow through it all she managed to keep her playful innocence, even through things that no young bunny should ever have to see. Sometimes Tails wished he could give up some of his own intelligence and go back to being that blissful.

Tails was putting the finishing touches on the machine when he heard someone come into the lab and speak.
"Tail's, honey, that machine can wait until tomorrow. Please come to bed. I was getting lonely."
Tails turned to see a tired Vanilla standing in the doorway then turned back to the machine.
"Just need to make a few more adjustments,and I'll be ready to hit the hay."

Vanilla pouted. "You know, you spend far too much time on that thing. We haven't been together in over a week, and the hormones have been affecting me a lot lately. I think you need to take a break for a little while and relax. The machine's not going to go anywhere for a few days and you need the rest."

Vanilla walked up to the young fox and placed a hand on his shoulder. "I'm not going to have to drag you out of here, am I?"

Tails sighed, then pur down his tools. "You're right. A little vacation wouldn't hurt anything. I'll come to bed."
Vanilla patted him on the head and said, "Good boy.", then gently led him out holding his hand in hers.
