A/N: How do they survive the whole week?

The week was going by much too slowly for both of them. Not being able to do more than kiss and hug after just getting to know each other intimately was torture. Of course, CC was doing her level best to drive Niles out of his mind, pushing every single button he had, repeatedly. Because CC was under doctor's orders to reduce all stress, Niles couldn't retaliate in any way and that was making the whole situation even more frustrating for him.

"You know Niles" she said to him as they were getting ready for bed on the sixth night. "I know that you were the one who proposed to abstain in order to keep me company this week, but I wouldn't think you a lesser man if you changed your mind…"

"No, but you would bug me about it for years to come." he said to clenched teeth as he watched her change into her pyjamas, taking her time and exaggerating her movements for his benefit. He had been taking so many cold showers this week, he didn't even bother getting into bed with anything on. When she was dressed for bed, she got in on her side and slide into the crook of his arm.

She started lazily running her hand over his chest, toying lightly with his nipples.

"Bitch" he hissed again. "That's just mean."

"Hey! You're speaking to the mother of your future children…you better watch your tongue" emphasizing that last word with a flick of hers over his very sensitive bud.

"CC!" he chided her. "It's really not fair you know….but the minute you are allowed to be stressed again, believe me, you will be sorry for this!" he made no effort to get away from her though, as the constant frustration was worth it just for a few minutes of her touch.

Earlier that day…

CC was sitting up on Niles bed. She was looking through some contracts while sipping some tea that Niles, of course, had brought her the last time he had come up to check on her. She was so frustrated. Niles was being so caring, so wonderful, and he had never looked so good to her. Every time he walked in the room, she wanted to jump him.

So when Max said he needed Niles to go deliver one of the contracts in person, CC enlisted Fran's help to get her to the doctors. The Babcock name did have some influence, and she was able to get in, get checked out and get the all clear before Niles had made it back to the mansion.

It was going to be hard to wait until the end of the day…but oh so worth it!

Of course, since Niles didn't know that she already had been given the "permission to be stressed" that afternoon, he could not have predicted that things were going to go so far, so soon. So when CC scooted down and quickly took him in her mouth, his only reaction was "Oh shit" Niles rarely swore, but this was extreme, intense, and totally unexpected. "CC…God…you're not supposed…ahh.."

She sucked greedily, hungrily and he just couldn't fight it anymore. Leaning his head back, he let his hand snake down and ran his fingers through her hair. It was beyond good, beyond amazing. He felt himself twitch inside her and stilled her head with his hand. She looked quizzically up at him "You have to stop. You… we can't be doing this…" he threw out in between very ragged breathing…

CC winked at him. "Dr. Wilson says different" and she took him completely again.

"Wha-at?" Niles was a bit slow, given the limited blood flow to his brain. He didn't really have time to fully comprehend CC's words when "Oh G-OD…I'm …oh …I..CC!" and he emptied himself into her mouth and she didn't let go until she got every drop. She kissed her way back up his body and finally his mouth. When she pulled away, she had a very self satisfied smirk on her face.

"You are really lucky you're carrying my child, wench!" He growled at her. "And luckier still that I love you" he kissed her again "it's those two things that are saving your sorry ass at this moment."

"Why?" she asked innocently, "you didn't like that?"

"Like that? Like that? Come here" he kissed her hard, and then crushed her to him. "Now… what was that about Dr. Wilson?"

"I saw him today…and"

"When? Your appointment is tomorrow?" Niles was more than confused.

"I know…I went while you were away. I got Fran to take me." she confessed.

"Why? You went without me?" Niles was a bit hurt actually…

"I couldn't take it anymore Niles…and I wanted to surprise you. I haven't had a contraction since we got back from England, and I was so frustrated I couldn't see straight. Do you know how hard you are to resist? I mean, I know it's about my health and the health of the baby … but see, I think my health would have suffered if we had to wait one more day!"

Niles just looked at her sort of in shock, and then a big smile spread across his lips. "so you mean… you're saying…" he kissed her and let out a whoop.

"Dr. Wilson just told me to be more attentive to any …unusual spasms…and for you to take it easy on me." she laughed.

"does that mean you can't…"

"No, I can still have an orgasm. Thank God" she added emphatically, "but nothing too crazy, too intense. So you can't pay me back until after the baby's born…" she tossed out, sticking her tongue out at him.

It took Niles a second for him to reply…then with a very serious tone he said "Or…I could just not pay you back at all…" he saw the look on her face as he spoke and felt himself respond to her, to the idea of the game that they played. Sex was so much more than just sex with them…it was as much a part of who they were, as much as the insults and the love fuelled them both.

When the reality of what he had just said sunk in, CC looked at him with really big eyes "What?" and then she just sat up on her knees "That's not how it works, Servant!" she spat the last word out at him, in mock anger. She was undoing her pyjama top as she spoke. "I am CC Babcock." and she removed her top. "THE Bitch of Broadway." and then she divested herself of her bottoms…a little less gracefully thanks to the belly, but effectively…and then got back on the bed, climbing over to straddle him. "When I speak." she pointed her finger right on his chest. "You listen. Got that, Butler Boy?" and she gave him one of those looks that he knew part of her was no longer playing.

"So if I say you're going to have to wait until after the baby's here to pay me back…" she leaned up and licked the tip of his ear, her full breasts softly brushing against his chest. "Then you damn well better pay be back." and with that, she sat back a bit and lowered herself onto him just as she said "Got that?!"

"Oh…God.." they both groaned. She didn't move however, just stayed, waiting for him to open his eyes.

"You didn't answer."

"Wha-at? What was the question?" he sputtered.

"I asked if we were clear?" she slid up just a bit, just enough to send his head back into the head board and his hands to come up to her hips.

"You don't play fair." he sulked.

"Got that right." she laughed, that sultry laugh that would make his insides turn to mush, and his penis twitch.

"Ok, ok. I promise. After the baby's born, I'll make sure that you pay for every look, every hint, every nuance, every touch, every unfinished kiss, every little thing that you've done to me until you can't see straight." his thumbs dug a bit into the tops of her thighs and his hands stretch out to hold her better.

"Good" she said, with finality. "Glad we understand each other." and just as easily as it had started, the game was over, and it was just the two of them back in the room. No more personas, no more jokes, just pure desire, want and need.

She leaned over to him, bringing her breast just over his mouth "Please Niles…I've missed you…touch me…love me…" she quietly whispered.

He didn't need to be asked twice. Flicking his tongue out over her nipple, he quickly took her in his mouth. His right hand was already caressing her other breast and his left one was lingering over her butt. She moaned and pushed herself further into him, grinding her hips down as well. Within seconds she could feel her nerves start to tense and she new she was close. She had been ready all week for this, and increased the speed to get the release she craved.

"Oh God…Niles…I'm … oh baby…yeah… don't …please…oh yes…I'm cumming…right there….oh…" and she shuddered from head to toe, ripping her breast out of his mouth as even his breath had become too overpowering. He slowly rocked his hips, letting her ride him through the waves that had crashed over her and when she finally stilled, he put his hand on her belly.

"CC, love, you are the most beautiful woman. The way you look when you cum…it's mesmerizing. I love the flush that spreads over your entire body as you let go." He leaned up a bit, still firmly encased in her warmth, and awkwardly reached over the baby to kiss her lovingly.

"Are you ok? I don't feel any contractions at the moment…but you can tell me more about that?" he asked, his voice full of concern.

"Nope, I don't feel any either." she replied honestly. "I do feel something else though." she said suggestively.

"CC, you're incorrigible!" Niles laughed as he leaned back on the bed.

"You know me…when something catches my attention…well, I have to see it through." And that she did, very thoroughly, and when Niles couldn't take it anymore and took her with him over the edge, they both cried out each other's names in ecstasy.

Afterwards, snuggling together bathed in the peace of impending slumber, she wrapped his arm firmly around her and kissed the inside of his hand. And like so many nights before and many to come after, they would fall asleep spooning with each other. The morning would often find them in the same position, but usually facing the other way…as CC had gotten into the habit of switching sides whenever she had to get up to go to the bathroom. She would just nudge Niles a bit and he would roll over and lift the blanket for whatever side she was heading for, not really waking, not really sleeping either.

He was surprised when on one of these occasions, she didn't immediately get into the bed with him after he had rolled over. He didn't have too much time to ponder over it as he felt her hand grab his arm and saw the other one clutch her belly.

"Hurts!" she cried a bit. "A lot!"

"First one?" he had already sat up and turned on the light.

"No…been feeling it for about an hour now…getting worse."

"Ok, we'll start timing them. I'll get dressed and get your bag." Before he could get going, he felt her hand reach out for him again.

"What is it? Another one already?" he questioned, looking into her eyes.

"No. I just wanted you to know…I love you. Before the craziness of this whole deliver sets in, before I start swearing things at you that I don't mean…before it's not just us anymore…. I love you Niles. I…I…" and he took her in his arms, holding her gently.

'Hey…CC…stay with me here…no time to get all soft on me" he coaxed. "I know you love me. You know I love you too, right?" he searched out his eyes with his. "I'll be here for you. Always. Know that. In here" he put her hand over her heart. "Nothing can change that. You put your spell over me a long time ago, my beautiful witch, and I'm utterly grateful for it." They would likely still be in each other's arms had the baby not chosen that moment to shift and start insisting on meeting them.

"My water just broke." CC said, a little fear in her eyes.
