Chapter 10

Niles and Daphne tucked David in, and they could see he was really upset about Eddie. It broke their hearts, but they prayed Eddie would get better soon, and they would see a smile back on their sons face. They turned off the light, and walked to their room. Niles sat on the bed as Daphne was changing for bed.

"How do you think Dad is"? Niles asked

"Frasier is watching him but I'm sure he is real worried, but Eddie will make it, I feel it in my heart"

"What if he doesn't it isn't just Dad we have to worry about. Did you see David he is devastated, he loves Eddie too Daphne"

"We all love Eddie but thinking negative will not make it better Niles Crane"

"I know I'm not like you Daphne, I worry to much"

"Yes you do, and I worry about you too Niles. You know your blood pressure has been going crazy recently."

"I know but don't worry about it I will live forever"

"You better we have another mouth to feed, and love "

Niles touched her face, and brought his lips over hers as they kiss. Niles whispered, "I love you Daphne".

They got up undressing each other getting in bed, and snuggled real close just kissing, and holding each other. They both jump as they hear a knock at their door.

Niles jumped up grabbing his pajama pants pulling them on as Daphne was putting her nightgown on. Nile's smiled as he ran over opening the door, and David was standing there with his teddy bear in his arms.

"Hey Buddy you couldn't sleep"?

"No can I sleep with you, and Mommy"?

"Sure come in, Mommy is in bed already". David ran over, and jumped in bed, and hugged his Mom. Niles walked over getting in bed, and whispered, "You stopped carrying your Teddy around a while ago David"

"I know but he was lonely"

Niles, and Daphne kissed his forehead, and whispered, "Well than it is lucky you brought him to our room we would hate for him to be all alone"

Niles turned off the light, and he snuggled beside David. Daphne, and Niles were looking at David when he said.

"Mommy when my Baby Brother or Sister comes does that mean I won't be your Baby anymore"?

"You will be my Baby boy forever even when your married, and have children of your own"

"That sounds silly Mommy"

"You are happy you are going to be a big Brother?"

"Yes, than I can make them do what I want"

Niles smiled, "Wow you have been talking to your Uncle Frasier I see"

"No Grandpa said when I have brothers or Sisters I will be the Boss, and I thought that was cool"

"Well not to bossy young man, but you will be the elder so they should listen to you"

"Daddy can we say a prayer for Eddie"?

"Sure we can do you want to say it"?

"Yes"

David sat up making Daphne, and Niles sit up as David said his prayer.

"Dear God please make Eddie be OK, my Grandpa Crane needs him so much, and he is one of my best friends. Thank you for giving me a Baby Brother or Sister but I want Eddie to meet them, he loves me, and I know he will love them too. I promise I will be a really good boy, and I will pray all the time, but I really hope you are listening to me because I have only 2 wishes, for you. My first one is to make Eddie all better, and my second wish is to keep my family happy they are the best".

David smiled as his Mom, and Dad hugged him, and smiled they were real proud of him.
