If ANYONE remembers this story I thought it deserved a proper ending. I always hated when people stopped stories without finishing them and even though this chapter is MONTHS overdue, here goes. So, I give you the final chapter in 'When Sparks Fly'…

"I forgot one more thing that I felt for you," he sighed as he was still trying to regain his breathing.

"What's that?" she asked casually as she moved a piece of his hair from his damp forehead as his eyes stared into hers, taking note of how tender she was being with him.

"I love you."

It worried him when he received not one facial response from the naked blond beside him. In fact the smile that was once on her face dissipated all together upon hearing his words. He could feel his stomach churning and the sweat make its way back to his forehead after already wiping it off with the sheets they were both tangled in.

C.C.'s mind started to race. He loves me? I thought this was simply a lay that was long overdue. Wait a minute…

Uh, that's it. Keep going, Love. Almost- …

'Love'. He did call me Love and I- well, I liked it! Well, I didn't correct him. Then again I was in the middle of an orgasm…

She turned her attention back to the sweating butler that was staring at her with fear in his eyes. She had to admit, he looked adorable when he was nervous.

Did I just screw it all up? Oh, why do you always do that, you crazy, stupid man?

"Or not…?" He didn't know if he should take it back or what. Do I really want to take back how I feel for this woman? He thought a moment before he sat up a little straighter. No. No I don't. I love this woman and I won't let her get away.

"C.C, I don't know what you're thinking but I'm not going to let you leave here without voicing it to me. I mean, we just made love and yes I called it love because that's what I feel for you. I love you and I don't know if you love me back but I would really appreciate if you could at least tell me-"

Before Niles could utter another sound, CC's lips were on him and her fingers threaded through his dark blonde curls that rested against the back of his neck.

Niles responded instantly as his arms flew around her and pulled her tightly, never wanting to let her go as their tongues danced in each others mouths. He was much too involved in the kiss to even think about what it meant but after they finally parted to seep air back into their lungs, Niles look at her with hurt, confusion and love all in one.

"What- what does that?" he hesitantly asked as he looked down at his sheets that were cover him from the waist down.

C.C smiled nervously as she wasn't sure she was ready to tell him she loved him. Actually she wasn't even sure if she did love him. She had never been in love before and the thought of it made her stomach create knots. And she loved it.

"It means 'I love you too."

Niles grinned from ear to ear before he took her in his arms and flipped her over so she was beneath him and that famous sultry laugh escaped her lips.

Finally I'm above her in something, he thought with an evil grin.

"God, I love you, Woman. You drive me crazy. You know that?"

"Why do you think I do it?" She brushed her hand against his cheek before she pulled him down for a deep kiss.

Niles and CC both woke to a banging on the door and then a nasal voice behind it.

"Niles, are you in there? Mister Sheffield is really angry. You were supposed to be lunch an hour ago. And have you seen C.C? She was supposed to take some contracts to the theater for Mr. Sheffield."

"Shit." CC gasped before she covered her mouth with a hand.

Niles only smirked, as the thought of CC being caught in his bed excited him. "I'll be right there, Miss Fine. I seemed to have caught a bug but I feel much better now after a nap. I'll be down in two minutes. And why in the world would I know where that troll is?"

He received a sharp slap on the arm before he yelped in pain.

'Niles are you all right?"

"Yes, yes. I stubbed my toe" he groaned as he rubbed his arm as he glared at CC who only gave a smug grin in response. "It's not going to be easy to date me," she smirked.

"Okay, well hurry." He listened for the footstep to get quieter as the seconds went by before he heard his other half speak.

"I have to hide," she whispered before she stretched in the warmth of his bed.

"You don't have to hide," he chuckled. "I'll just run down and see if the coast is clear in the kitchen and then call you on the intercom up here so you can come down." He got up off the bed and started to redress before he leaned in and kissed her lips chastely before staring at her.

"What are you staring at me for? You're freaking me out." She shuddered as the look was actually turning her on.

"Just trying to burn this picture into my mind," he smirked before he opened the door, winked at her and then closed it behind him.

She simply shook her head as she smirked at the door. "He is something else, that man."

Niles quickly walked down into the kitchen to see the coast was clear. He quickly walked up to the intercom and turned it on before pressing the button for his room.

"The coast is clear, my angel." When he didn't get a response he tried again. "C.C? Is this on? Can you hear- Ahh!"

Niles jumped when he felt two arms wrap around his waist. Knowing who them belonged to he smirked before he realized they were displaying affection in plain sight and his eyes grew the size of saucers. He quickly turned around and stared into her deep blue orbs.

"What are you doing?" he whispered. "Someone might see us."

"No one will see us. Relax Toilet Brush. Maxwell is in his office so you know Nanny Fine is there as well, sitting on his desk with her short skirt and crossed leg- Why are you gawking like that? You better not be thinking about her in that way." Her glaring eyes were all the warning he needed.

"Of course not, he laughed. I was just imaging you in something like that. I do love your legs. You should show them off more often." He grinned as he leaned down and caressed her calve that showed through the slit of her pencil skirt.

She jumped at the contact and playfully slapped his arm.

"Oww, why do you keep insisting on slapping me, Woman?" He rubbed his arm as he watched her smirk.

"I'll slap you a lot harder tonight," she winked and his jaw dropped before they both heard the bellow of their employer.

"Niles! Where's lunch? CC! Why aren't those contracts out for the theater yet?

"Tonight you say?" Niles smirked as he walked toward the fridge to gather the ingredients for his Minestrone soup.

"Tonight," she winked before she pushed the swinging doors open to exit the kitchen.

And so who would have guessed that the butler and socialite would allow some sparks to fly.
