True to her word, Daphne ended her trip early and came back a couple days before Roz's appointment with the doctor. While she got questions from everybody, they were all glad to have her come home. Niles was overjoyed when he picked her & Mrs. Moon up at the airport.

"Couldn't stay away from me, huh?" He whispered into her hair.

Daphne smiled. She would always be grateful having a man like Niles in her life. No matter how things might've turned out differently otherwise. "Oh, Niles. It's so good to see you again! I missed you so much."

"I missed you too, my love. We'll never take a vacation like that apart again, I promise."

"Come on, Mum's probably ready to go home."

Daphne didn't want to reveal the real reason why she came back just yet. She didn't like keeping things from Niles, but Roz didn't want anybody to know until they were certain she was pregnant. She didn't know what she wanted to do more, stay in Niles' arms, or be with Roz. Mr. Crane would probably be glad to see her too. No doubt he let his exercises slip while she was away, even though she was only gone a few days.

Niles helped get their luggage from the airport's carousel. All the time he wondered about the real reason why Daphne came home early. He had to think that it partly wasn't about him. But whatever it was, he knew Daphne would tell him when she was ready.

The drive home to the Montana was more or less a quiet one. Daphne had her mind on Roz and her possible pregnancy. She wondered how Roz would feel about having another child while not married. She knew Roz would be a wonderful mother; she's done a great job raising Alice. It was as if Roz were a natural mother. But with this being Frasier's child, she had to think this time might be different somehow. Roz and Frasier's relationship had always been a strong one, even right from the start. Daphne had always kind of hoped they'd end up together. They were a good match, in her eyes. With a baby on the way though, that might change it all. And what about the radio show? If they revealed the pregnancy on the air, it might destroy them. Daphne thought about all that, and certainly hoped that she was just worrying over nothing…

"You're awfully quiet," Niles whispered over to her.

"Just thinking," Daphne replied.

"Anything wrong?"

"Nothing I want to talk about just yet, but don't worry, I'm fine. I'm with you now, how could that be bad?"

"We'll have to do some celebrating when we get home."

"I can't wait. I love you, Niles."

"I love you too."
