The next morning Niles layed in bed staring at his lovely wife before getting up for the day. He thought about the day that she had been carrying around the tape recorder and how she recorded the one time he proposed to her. And how she accidently clicked play when they were talking and how he thought she wasn't taking it seriously. And her saying her marrying him he was an pathetic excuse for a man. Then remembered how he told her that she would be "singing Merry Christmas to her friends in rehab and wondering what might have been". And how that following night they would be in bed together. As this thought had ended, she started to wake up. In his eyes she was as beautiful as a woman could be in the morning with her a hair a mess. He looked at her like he always had, even though she had her moments of being cruel that's what he had loved about her but their was also a loving side to her that he was falling for more.
He didn't know if becoming a mother was helping her become a little softer with her rude comments and bickering or what. He wasn't gonna complain he liked this side of her. But he would always be ready for her to call him a name. She had many of them thru the years but he never had took them personal because that wasn't him. The bickering had brought them together and that was part of them that would stay forever. C.C looked at him with confussion because wasn't he supposed to be with the kids and getting them up.
"Niles, what are you doing in bed, Aren't you supposed to see if the kids want to get up"
Niles just looked at her and said "Dear, there already up, Fran and Gracie are with them, they got up earlier them and i went down stairs and Fran told me that she and Gracie would watch them for a little bit to give me a break".
C.C saids "okay dust boy, so whats for breakfast?"
He tells her that he had made everyone pancakes, bacon and toast this morning. But he would be willing to go down stairs and make her some if that's what she had wanted. As a butler that was his job.
C.C saids "Baby, that sounds great". I have alot to do with Maxwell for this play we are working on and maybe after wards me you and the kids can go away for the day and have some family time, I'll talk it over with Max and see what he saids and let you know".
Niles saids and gives her a smile"Okay my love, think that would be a great idea because there is something I would like to ask you been wanting to ask you ever since we had found out you were pregnant".
C.C in the back of her mind kinda figured what he had in mind. He always had told her she deserved a real wedding and not just a hospital setting one like the one they had did. Anways ruining their vows even after almost a year would be beneficial because now there children would be there and be able to be part of it. Niles wanted his kids to be a part of that day he was glad that him and C.C were married but thought in the back of his mind she deserves more and I will give her it all that I can even if I am not rich. He was ashamed that he did not have money to satisified all her needs and wants. But little did her know that she was happy for what she had in front of her. She was happy she had a husband like him, she was happy for the two beautiful children in the other room that they were blessed with and also was happy that she got to wake up knowing everyday she had someone to live for and something to look forward to.
As she ate her breakfast that Niles had prepared for her she thought about the day. She didn't know what to expect because knowing Niles when he planned something it was something big. Niles did not want her to know but he was going to propose to her the right way with their children there and down on one knee he wanted to make right. Even though this would be his sixth and last time. The only reason he wanted to do this was because she deserved better and he was going to give her a wedding. She always said she loved weddings so a real wedding with her in a dress, him in a tuxedo and everyone around them including their children would be there.
Niles as C.C was getting ready had already in weeks ahead had asked Max if she could have the day off because of what he had planned. Max was ready for the plan which was he would tell C.C that he had everything under control and to enjoy some time with her family. Max understood alot more than one would think. On the other hand Fran would tell C.C that she, Niles and the kids should do something together as a family and enjoy themselves for a day. Fran could handle the house for a little bit while they were out.
After C.C finshed breakfast she kissed her husband and told him that she would talk to Max about today. When she got to the office Max told her that she should take the day off and be with her kids and Niles. She asked him if that would be okay? He told her "C.C go and have fun with your family. So C.C walked out of the office and went to go find her husband who was cleaning up the kitchen. Little to little did she know that Fran, Max, Gracie and the kids would be with them later to celebrate the engagement that was bound to happen later that day. "Dear Max gave me the day off and told me to spend it with you and the kids". He saids "Oh, isnt that what you wanted"? She saids "Of course why wouldn't I want to spend it with the ones I love"? He saids "One hope you would brunette". She looked at him "Oh dust mop, where should we take the kids today"? He tells her "I have an idea but it is a surprise for the three of you, he told her to pack the kids bags and bring something nice for them to wear. She now was curious of what he was planning.
Weeks earlier he had bought her a white dress that he'd hope would fit her and had Fran kept it in her closet so when the day came they would know where it was. He told Fran to bring it with her when they had gotten there. There was a plan that he had made. He had a plan to get her wedding ring off before they had left. After she packed the bags he told her she might wanna leave her wedding ring off for today. She wasn't to thrilled leaving it behind but she put it on her dresser and took the bags and the children in their car seats down stairs. Meanwhile Niles picked up the ring put it in the box that it came in and put it in his pocket for later that day. So Niles goes down stairs and meets up with C.C and the kids and they head into their now own SUV that was bought before the twins were born
He makes sure the twins are fastned and then him and C.C got into the car and were on their way. Niles was planning on to take her and the kids to the nearest park and then later that day would proposed to her again and marry her right in the gazebo right by the falls. He didn't want C.C to know where they were going so he kept it a secret as long as he could.
He pictured them walking around pushing their children, holding each other and just being a family. As he drove all he could think of was her and their children and finally how beautiful and perfect their life was finally. With his children in the back and the love of his life in the passenger seat. It was a dream come true. He just hoped that she would still accept his proposal and would still marry him by the falls with their children. C.C who had been quiet finally asked "Honey, where are we going exactly"? He didn't tell her but just said you'll love it. They get to the parking lot to park. The kids asleep in the backseat he looked at them and gave a big sigh. Opened the car door got the strollers out and put each one in. Then C.C and him and the twins started walking. The scenery to her was familiar but didn't know from what. Maybe a catalog she went thru she wasn't sure. As they began on this journey he and her were full of laughs, kisses and were just a couple in love like two teenagers. He took his hand into hers and pulled the stroller. They got to a familiar spot it was to the falls the one place he'd always wanted to take her.
He parked the stroller so the twins were facing him and C.C, he took the ring out of his pocket, he got down on one knee and said "Chasity Claire, will you marry me this time"? And the right way?. With tears in her eyes she had said yes. They both shared a long kiss. That is when Max, Fran, Gracie and their twins showed up. They all were happy. Fran handed her the wedding dress that Niles picked out for her and said "today is the day honey everything is all set and ready just need a bride with a dress". She didn't know what to say or think but went into the closest bathroom and got ready with Fran and Gracie's help. Niles and Max stayed with the children as they were already to go. A few minutes went by and C.C came out. She was gorgeous from head to toe. Her hair pulled back and wearing a lace wedding dress and a necklace with I love you written on it.
As in their vows it would be a lot different than at the hospital. They were more deeper and more meaningful. This time it would be with their kids. While standing up at the alter waiting for C.C to come down the aisle, Niles couldn't help but think about the future they had and hoped that it would be the most memorable day of her life. He wanted everything perfect for her because he wanted and knew she deserved it. Even though he had his own thoughts into thinking he was never gonna be enough for her and this was because she was upper than him and he was just the severant and the butler. He gathered his thoughts and she came down the aise beautiful as can be.
While she was walking all she could be thinking about was she doing the right thing? How did she know she wasn't making a mistake and if he was really the one? She knew she wouldn't know unless she tried. She just hoped that whatever the future had in store it would keep them as a couple. She gets up to Niles and looks at him with teary eyes and a smile on her face at the same time. As they priest goes on and on they just look at each other with thoughts rolling across their mind in hopes they were thinking the same thing. Just before the priest begins to say do you… Niles take Chasity Claire to be your lawful wedded wife… Of course Niles saids at the end "I do" Chasity Claire then repeats the vows and said's "I do". Then they recite their vows. Niles starts "Chasity Clarie my dear, I cannot imagine my life without you, in just a little bit of time we have gotten close together and shared our feelings for one another in the same aspect. I promise you now in front of our family and friends to love you and only you and that I promise to be loyal to you and only you. I promise to cherish you and cherish all the time spent with you in years to come. I love you and only you. Then C.C or known as Chasity Claire by now recites her vows in a similar matter. "Niles, Who would had known the two of us together as one and that with in the time spent together it would bring us to this very day. I promise to love you and promise to never leave you despite of anything said. I promise to be devoted to you and to stay by your side in years to come. I promise that whatever life throws at us I'll be by your side forever forever and always as I should be", I love you. Then the priest saids if there is anyone who feels that these two should not be married speak now or forever hold your peace. Then said the power invested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife you may kiss your bride. Which they end up sharing a passionate kiss before getting interrupted with the kids who were now patiently waiting on mommy and daddy. They got wonderful pictures done by the falls and headed back home where the reception would be and their dance would be to the song "God Bless the Broken Road which was one of their favorites. After the night was over they would put the twins to bed and have a passionate night for themselves.
But before the night had ended C.C and Niles went into Max's limo and shared a drive with themselves while Fran and Gracie had watch the twins for them while Max had watched his and Fran. The driver was someone who was dear friends with Max. While driving they shared a lot of moments but then the worse was bound to happen. They were in the back and the driver was driving along until he lost control and ended up driving off the cliff. It ended up tumbling down the hill more and more. C.C was badly injured from head to toe while Niles who was really weak still could try and climb out and try and save his new bride. The driver was dead on instant. So with the limo now on its one side Niles tried to climb out and had to break the limo window open to do so. He climbs out and remembers just for a sec he did have his phone and tried to call for help. He tried to call Max. Max couldn't hear him because of the static in the phone but tried to piece it together and still didn't get no where.
Niles by now trying to figure out how to save C.C who can barely move or anything. He ends up having to climb thru the window again and grabbing her which the pressure of the weight starts moving the limo. He saids "Baby I'm gonna get you outta here and everything's gonna be okay. C.C whispers I hope. He picks her up. Looking at her with fear and love at the same time he knew he would have to get her out but also quick so the limo wouldn't tip anymore and if he died doing it it would be worth it because she needed to be with the kids. They get to the edge of the window he puts her thru it carefully. Then just as soon as he jumps out the limo tumbles and crashes and burns.
They were happy they still had one another even tho they both were very sore. Then Niles looks at C.C and saids to her "im just happy I got you out and even tho I know your thinking that you look horrible you still look as beautiful as the day I met you. And if I could I'd take the pain you are in. C.C looked at him and knew he was telling her the truth and even tho could barely talk said" thank you I'm sorry if I'm disappointing you". He looks at her and saids " My dear shush no you're not disappointing me I'm happy to still call you my wife and the mother of my kids". He hugs her and even both covered in blood share a kiss before Niles saids I'm gonna try Max again.
He tries to get thru Max and Max can't hear him still. Then Fran saids "I think we should go looking for Niles and C.C. Max saids "im sure they are fine anyways they need time away from the twins for a while it will do them both good". Fran looks at him and saids " I don't think so I tried to call the driver and got no answer, I really think there in trouble and they need us.". He saids "okay we will take their car and go looking let's get the kids in the car first tho'. So they all get in the car and start looking. Just as they hit the one main road. Max saids" I see something or someone . To their knowledge it could be Niles and C.C He gets up closer and recognizes them. Then saids "omg it is them and it doesn't look good". Niles and C.C see Max and then Max stops and they both get in. Fran saids "Are you two okay?" Niles saids we both need help but C.C more than anyone. They head to the hospital. When they get to the hospital Niles takes C.C and they both get checked in while Fran, Max, Gracie and the kids wait for news. Just as soon as they get C.C in a room. Questions were asked of what happened and how? No one knew except those Two and with both in separate rooms it was hard. Max, Fran and the doctors wanted answers. They weren't sure about C.C of how badly everything was but was sure that Niles would be okay enough to let everyone know. The doctors came in and told Max that C.C had a lot of problems but Niles was okay and they were releasing him. Of course he wouldn't leave C.C's side until she could come home and be with her family.
Niles came out look at Max and his kids and hugged the two infants who still did not know what was going on and he whispered to them mommy loves you.. Then looked at everyone and said I'm staying with her until future notice please take the twins home and give them our love". Max saids " We keep praying for her she's family like you are" He saids "thank you everyone for making our wedding perfect now all I can do is hope my wife is gonna be okay and will pull thru this, I cannot lose her if I do I don't know what I will do" Max tells him keep prayering for the best.
As everyone had went home Niles sat there tears in his eyes and hoping to god she would be okay he needed her but mostly their kids needed her. The doctor came out and said "you can see her but not sure if her memory is back or not she may have lost it". He shakes his head and went in. The though came to mind "what happens if she doesn't remember today or me I'll never forgive myself". He went in and sat next to her and held her hand. She knew who he was she didn't lose her memory. She couldn't forget the touch of him or how he kissed her or even when and how they made love in their bed.
She looked at him and said "Niles, I'm sorry and look at me I'm basically ruined from the wreck. My face is beaten up, my legs are swollen and one is broken, you'll never look at me the same as you used too ". Before she said anything more that would tear his heart he put his fingers on her lips and looked at her and said this "C.C my dear I love you and I will love you until the day I die, you gave me the best gift of all two little bundles of joy that love the both of us as we love each other, to this day you still take my breath away and you will continue to do so until the end of time, we need to both get outta here for our kids that means you need to relax babe and get better not just for me but our children, I'm not leaving without you and I want you home with us. With tears in her eyes she agreed, she needed to settle not just for her but for the kids. Their kids needed them and she did not want to let them down.
Niles sat by her side and didn't leave. He couldn't leave the one he loved nor the mother of his children. He prayed for the day she came home. He needed her home at his side. Few tears rolled down and he hoped she didn't see. She couldn't see this side of him he didn't want her to nor her be in fear. They were officially married and it was more real than before. Even though her dress and everything were ruined from the crash in the back of her mind she hoped that Niles would understand why she wanted everything not just for the memory of the wedding with her kids but the man she loved more than herself. No one knew her true feelings before nor even Niles she was never good at showing how she felt especially someone like Niles who her family would say he was outta her league.
As she sleeped she would dream about the love of her life and her children anymore that her and Niles in the future would agree too. She hoped in the back of his mind he wanted more but wasn't sure. He seemed content with his two but did he want more? She wasn't sure they never talked about it maybe in a yr from now they both would consider more but right now wasn't the time to talk about it. C.C needed to get better and that's what was gonna happen before anything.
