Chapter 3
Daphne was sitting in the car, she looked over at Frasier.
"Talk to me Frasier please"
"Daphne promise me you won't tell Niles "
"About this night or the kiss"?
"Daphne please he is my brother, he would be devastated"
"We didn't do anything wrong, we came here, we got caught up in the moment. I know you don't like me that way, so it was a innocent kiss".
Frasier gripped the steering wheel , "Did it feel like a innocent kiss to you Daphne"? She knew it wasn't but she just wanted this to end, and forget what happened.
"Frasier stop feeling guilty it will just make us feel worse".
"I wanted the kiss Daphne, do you hear me, I wanted the kiss"
"Oh God Frasier stop it"
"No, I hate myself, but I enjoyed kissing you, so we can never be alone again, I will stay away from you, from now on"
"Well that would make Niles suspicious"
"To bad, I can't be near you, or I might do it again"
"Frasier are you trying to freak me out? I know you never liked me that way, tonight we both were lonely, and it happened. I blame myself talking about romance, and that movie, and the kiss from the movie. I was asking for what happened, but I want it to end now, I can't lose you as a friend"
"I care about you Daphne but how I'm feeling right this moment, is confusing me. I hate myself, my thoughts are wrong, and sick, and what kind of brother am I"?
"What are thinking about"?
"That I want to take you to my place this moment, do you understand now"?
"Stop the car, I have to find a cab"
"No I will take you home, don't worry"
Daphne looked out the window, she was confused, and scared. What has she done, this was all her fault. She knew Frasier has been lonely, and she was acting so silly around him. Niles would never forgive either of them, but keeping this from him was cruel. She loved Niles, she couldn't hurt him or Frasier, so she will have to keep this to herself . She didn't know how she would do it, but she had to for them. She was not married to Niles, but she loved him with all her heart, how did she allow this to happen? The car stopped Daphne jumped out, running into her apartment building. Frasier sat for the longest time, just staring. What has he done, his own brother, and how was he going to deal with these crazy feelings he had?. He never thought of Daphne that way, but something changed. That stupid impulsive kiss, ruined everything. How could he face his Father, Niles and even Daphne now. He started the car, and drove to his place.
Daphne got inside, she shut the door, and leaned against it. She fell to the floor crying she couldn't believe she was so foolish. She was replaying the kiss over and over in her head, and what scared her she enjoyed it. How could she enjoy it, when it was Niles she wanted? She sat there thinking about the night for hours. She finally got up walking to the bedroom, she changed into her PJ's, and crawled in bed. She held the pillow close, and cried herself to sleep.
