They lied there; Niles had Daphne wrapped in his arms, holding her close to her body. He glanced over at the clock in front of him, it was morning. They had spent the night at Frasier's. Niles wondered if Frasier knew that the two of them were there. In the moment, he didn't care. The woman of his dreams was wrapped in his arms, asleep. He felt her bearskin against his arms and it felt as if they were one.
Daphne stirred in his arms. He thought the little movement he made had woken her up. She fluttered her eyes open and turned around to face Niles.
"Good morning Handsome," Daphne breathed as she raised her head to kiss him.
"Good morning Beautiful," Niles said back. Daphne rotated her body so she was facing Niles. She wrapped one arm between him and the bed and took the other and ran her index finger down his chest then raised it back over his waist. Niles put an arm under the pillow under her head and with his other hand, ran it down Daphne's arm and slid it onto her waist and back down to her bum. She smiled as his hand traced her arm and leant forward to kiss him again. This time, she opened her mouth a little.
They lied there, arm in arm, kissing. Their bear skin up against one another as one. Niles's arm moving up and down Daphne's spine. She shuttered at the tingle that it sent down her spine. She loved being so close to him. She felt safe in his arms, as if nothing could happen to them. Minutes passed before they slowly pulled away from one another.
"What should I cook you for breakfast Love?" Daphne asked Niles, she was getting hungry.
"Nothing Sweetie, I will make you something." Niles responded and pecked her on the cheek before raising himself from the bed. He looked around the room for his boxers and shirt. He needed something to wear before he went out. Daphne sat up, holding the sheet up to cover herself. She then decided she would go help him, so she stood up and began searching for her brassiere and shirt and all of the other garments. Once she was presentable, she grabbed Niles's hands, kissed him lightly, and they unlocked the door, hand in hand.
