Chapter 4
Daphne was awake all night she was exhausted. She got up, and made herself a tea. She sat on the couch, just thinking about Niles, and Frasier. She didn't want to lose the love of her life, and one of her best friends. She jumped when the doorbell rang. She put her tea down, and walked to the door and opened it.
"Niles what are you doing here"?
"I called last night on your cell phone why didn't you answer"?
"I turned it off , why do you care"?
"Can I come in, or should I stand out here like a door to door salesman"?
"Niles come in, I was kind of busy"
"Really you still are in your nightgown, and housecoat how busy can you be"?
"Niles stop what do you want"?
"Where were you last night, I can't believe you would go bar hopping Daphne"
"Bar hopping, are you insane, but I went to a bar"
"Alone"?
"Yes my guy didn't want to take me out"
"I was tired, do you know what can happen to women in bars"?
"What they could be offered a drink, or be asked to dance"?
"Did someone buy you drink, or dance with you"?
"No Niles".
"Good Daphne I wouldn't be impressed if you did that". Daphne sat down, and picked up her tea.
"Are you going to offer me a beverage"?
"Sure go in the kitchen, and make your own"
"Daphne you don't act this way, what is wrong with you"?
"I'm tired Niles, leave me alone". Daphne ran to her bedroom, and slammed the bedroom door. Niles sat down he was so confused, he just knew something was wrong, she doesn't act this way even when she is angry. Niles got up walking down the hall, and knocked on her door.
"Daphne please come out so we can talk"
"Go away Niles , we will talk later"
"Daphne what is the matter, you have never acted this way before".
"Go away".
Niles walked down the hall, and walked out the door. He walked to the elevator, he was angry, hurt, and confused. He went downstairs, and got in his car, and decided to go see his Brother. He was always someone he could talk to even though he didn't like some of the stuff Frasier said to him sometimes. Niles drove over to Frasier's work, and went inside. He went up to his floor, and was told Frasier , was in his office, he could go in. Niles knocked on the office door.
"Come in"
Niles opened the door, and went inside. Frasier saw Niles, and his heart was racing. He just knew Daphne said something.
"Niles what are you doing here at this time"?
"Frasier I want to discuss something with you"
"Really I'm really busy, can't it wait"?
"No it is about Daphne, I need to talk now". Frasier sat down, and pointed to the seat across from him. Niles walked over sitting down, he looked at Frasier, "Something is wrong with Daphne, I know she is mad at me, but something happened last night"
"What Niles"?
"Something happened, she looks tired, she looks like she has been crying all night. She looks like she is guilty of something, oh Frasier, what if there is someone else, I will die if I lose her now". Frasier's head was pounding, he didn't know what to say, he knew Niles would never forgive him. He couldn't even speak he felt so guilty, but he knew he better say something or Nile's would get suspicious if he wasn't already.
