The closer he came to condo 1901, the more his heart raced. And the next thing he knew he was ringing the doorbell.

"Dr. Crane!"

The mere sight of her took his breath away. How had she become even more beautiful each time he saw her?

"Hello, Daphne. You're looking lovely today."

She blushed deeply and smiled, but then squinted as though she was in pain.

He reached out and touched her shoulder. "Are you all right?"

Her hand went to her forehead and she winced again.

"Oh, I will be. I was quite a mess last night, wasn't I? Drinkin too much wine. I always tell meself to go easy on the alcohol but I don't seem to listen until the next morning and...Ohhhh..."

When she stumbled, he rushed to her side, trying to steady her.

"Thank you, Dr. Crane. I guess I'm a bit dizzy and me head aches something terrible."

He led her to the sofa and touched her forearm. "I'll be right back."

He could feel her watching him as he crossed the room to the kitchen, returning seconds later with some aspirin and a glass of water.

"Here, Daphne. Take these and you'll feel better soon."

"Thank you, Dr. Crane. That's very sweet." She said, swallowing the aspirin and water.

"I'm sorry you're not feeling well." Niles said.

To his surprise, she hung her head low.

"Is something wrong?"

"I'm so ashamed."

"Oh, Daphne..."

"It was terribly irresponsible, Dr. Crane, takin' advantage of you the way I did."

"Nonsense, you did nothing of the sort. You were a perfect ang-um... You were just a little tipsy. If anyone's to blame it's me. I should have paid more attention to how many glasses of wine I was pouring you and-."

His words were silenced by her fingertips on his mouth.

"I won't let you blame yourself, Dr. Crane. I knew perfectly well what I was doin, drinking all of that wine. You were just being your usual sweet self, trying to help me to bed safely. It means so much that you care about me."

He looked up as a flash of hope went through him. Could she really remember the sweet moments they had shared in her bedroom? His heart pounded at the thought.

A surge of loved filled him and he reached for her hand. "Of course I care about you, Daphne. I'll always care about you, no matter what."

She smiled and covered his hand with hers. "And I care about you, Dr. Crane... very much. You're kind, sweet and so thoughtful."

"Daphne, about last night..."

"Now Dr. Crane, whatever I said was out of pure wooziness. I had no idea what I was saying and I certainly didn't mean what I said."

His heart sank and for one ridiculous moment, he was sure that he would cry.
