Their lips meant in a firery passion like she had never felt before. It felt so right. She wanted this so much.
C.C. Babcock woke up flustered. Where was she? Then she remembered. She was all alone in her apartment, with the exception of a little dog. She couldn't remember what she had just dreamt. She had a strange unsettling feeling inside her. If only she could remember what she really had dreamt about, mabye that would explain her uneaisyness. Whatever she had dreamt about was something that felt so fimiliar to her. Somewhere in the back of her mind she knew what that feeling was, but she couldn't put her finger on it. To tired to think, she went back to sleep.
The next day Niles opened the door to see the "blonde floozy", as he put it, C.C. Babcock.
"Hello Hello," C.C. greeted him and Nanny Fine who was sitting on the couch watching her soaps as usual.
"What is it with you and that greeting witch?"
"Don't, I am not in the mood today," C.C. said very angeraly
"What are things that are said to C.C. Babcock after a date?"
"Good one Niles," came the nasal voice of Fran Fine Sheffield
C.C. stalked to the solitude of the office to get her work done. 'Why is it that he always gets to me so much. Why can't I just ignore him. I hate that man so much. I can hardly put up with him, my work, and getting over Colin. This is going to be a long day.'
Living Room:
"O Niles that was a good zinger, but you shouldn't be so mean to Miss Babcock. You know Colin just broke up with her..."
"Good ridence to bad trash," Niles said under his breath, just enough that Fran heard.
"Niles are you glad Colin broke up with her?"
"No, I mean yes, no," he said very nervously knowing Fran, the yenta that she was, was catching on to his feelings for Miss Babcock.
"Niles you like Miss Babcock don't you?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Well, you can't really tell, I mean you are always throwing zingers her way."
"Well, what do you expect me to do just say 'Hi Miss Babcock...How are you? Really that's nice, o and by the way I LOVE YOU!'?"
"Niles you mean all these years that was just your way of flirting with her?"
"Well, yes that is, it really started the night when you walked in on us kissing. I will admit it was because we were drunk, but I guess I am better with my feelings when I am not sober."
"Hmm. Niles we need to think of a way for Miss Babcock to fall for you."
"What? I didn't want you to act on my feelings for her!"
"O Niles, you helped me all those years that I wanted to get Max to propose and I only knew him a fraction of the time that you knew Miss Babcock. This will be a piece of cake."
CC walkes in yelling over the phone.
"What? You mean to tell me that those contracts will not be ready by tommorrow? You will get a call from my lawyer about this you worthless pig." She then throws the phone in the trash.
"Did I say a piece, I meant a few pieces."
C.C. stares at them quizically
Fran walks out of the room pondering a way for Miss Babcock to fall for Niles. 'This was definitly not going to be easy,' she thought
"Niles get me a cup of coffee."
"O the Ice Princess can't get herself a cup? O that's right if you touches hot liquid you might melt." Did I just say that? What the heck am I thinking! I am not going to win her over like this!
"This coming from Frosty the Snowweasel!"
"I thought u weren't in the mood today Babs!"
"I wasn't but you had to drag me in, and don't call me BABS!"
"Fine I will call you by your real name."
"What?" Was he just being nice? What is going on?
"Yep! Hello chicken! Lay any eggs for me today?"
"O shut up!" I knew he couldn't be nice. She walks out in a huff forgetting about her coffee.
Niles stands there banging his head on the counter. 'I just had to screw things up worse, didn't I? Why can't I be nice for just once!!!'
Later that day:
"Mrs. Sheffield I have found the perfect way for Miss Babcock to fall for me!"
"Niles you did! Wait, I thought you weren't into that idea?"
"Well after you mentioned it I started to think that I should do something before it is too late."
"What is it with Englishmen. They think that it is not too late after 5 years or 20 years."
"Mmph hmm, anyway my friend wrote a play that he wanted to be produced. Naturally he came to me because of my connections. Well I mean I am the butler of the second most successful Broadway producer in New York so that would..."
"Niles I would like to get this conversation done by the end of Christmas."
"Ok so anyway, naturally at first I said no, but after our conversation I thought that I would try to produce it myself. I mean you know how Miss Babcock goes for Mr. Sheffield and I mean he is a producer so she must be impressed by that stuff."
"Niles you are a genius! Now how are you going to do this without Max finding out?"
"How am 'I' going to do this. I thought you were going to help me. You came up with the idea of getting Miss Babcock to fall for me."
"Well, ok you are my best friend."
They both hug and start planning what to do.
A few weeks later at the production party:
"Well old man after a lot of complications, but you finally did it."
"Well sir thanks for straightening out those city violations. I wouldn't be here if it weren't for you."
"Think nothing of it and next time just come to me with the problems!"
"Well sir I had a reason for doing this."
"Yes well, I don't think it worked to well. C.C. hasn't said anything about being impressed by you, but beleive me she has said some things."
"What kind of things sir?"
"You don't want to know." Before Niles could get another word in Maxwell sees a possible investor for his next play. "Well gotta go, I need to talk to that investor. Congrats old man."
"Thank you sir." Niles sighs looking at Miss Babcock. Those firey eyes. Those golden locks. Although I don't think that is their original color. He chuckles. Fran walks up behind in.
"Hey Niles!"
"O, Mrs. Sheffield you startled me." Niles is still looking dreamily at Miss Babcock.
"Niles why don't you just talk to her?"
"I couldn't."
Pushing Niles in Miss Babcock's direction. "Niles talk now!"
"Ok, Ok. Don't push!" He walks over to Miss Babcock. "Miss Babcock!"
"I've got to admit you surprised me tonight. You finally pulled off something bigger than your shorts."
"O yeah? Well, you-- your a--you walk like a--Marry Me?"
C.C. couldn't beleive her ears. What had he just said. She got a little excited inside and then came to her senses. "Are you joking? Marry you?"
"No I am not joking." Niles just answers standing stiff in his spot like a robot.
"Yeah right!" C.C. almost screams and walks off in a huff. All the while Fran is watching and she follows C.C. to the bathroom.
"So what did he say? What did you say? I want to know all the details...dish!!"
"He asked me to marry him and naturally I said no!"
"He asked you to marry you? That's not exactlly what I had in mind, but Miss Babcock why did you say no?"
"O yeah its always been a dream of mine to marry a maid. I would just love to give up my park avenue penthouse to move into his room."
"You said no because he's not rich?"
"Nanny Fine of course, and I have no feelings for that man except for hate."
"Miss Babcock follow your heart. Listen to it. What does it say?"
"Don't marry a maid." C.C. then walks out of the bathroom. I can't beleive this. Why did he ask me to marry him? I thought he hated me. Well I guess no one can resist C.C. Babcock, but still this is Niles we are talking about, although he is kinda cute in a butler type way. What am I saying? He is a butler for gods sake!!!
As Fran starts to walk out of the bathroom Niles is in the doorway looking depressed.
"I want you to know you ruined my entire life and I will never forgive you!"
"Hey, this isn't my fault! I didn't tell you to propose. What happened.?"
"It just sorta popped out."
"Well that's ok. We will recover from this."
"No! Stay out of my personal life. I don't need anymore of your help!" Niles leaves to go find a bar. I so need a drink right now and not just champagne.
The next day C.C. comes into the house at 8:00 a.m. sharp. She is really looking forward of a day to torturing Niles.
"Maxwell where is Niles?"
"He never came home last night and why do you care?"
"Well I want to find him so I can torture him."
"C.C. don't you dare! The man is depressed enough about your reaction. Don't make him feel worse."
"But Maxwell!"
"C.C. if you do then I will asure you that you will not be welcomed in this home or in our company."
"Ok fine. Your handing out a lot of threats lately."
"What was that?"
"Nothing!" I can't beleive this! I finally have the perfect amo and I can't use it!!
C.C. walks to the kitchen to find Fran making coffee with her dummy twins. If you ask me they got the wrong people being called the dummy. C.C. then laughs her evil and trademark laugh.
Fran notices C.C. laugh and figures it is the perfect time to butt in. "Miss Babcock won't you at least let Niles take you to dinner?!?"
"Nanny Fine stay out of my love life!"
"Like you have one! Anyway, why don't you want to go out with Niles?"
"I want a man who can charm me. I want a man who can sweep me off my feet."
"You are half way there you have a man the sweeps."
"Nanny Fine I sure sure Maxwell told you this, but stay out of it!"
Fran gets down on her knees. "Please if he asks to go to dinner say yes. Please...Please...PLEASE!"
"Get off of me! Fine, but only dinner and it is only for you to shut up!"
"O yea!" Fran runs out of the kitchen looking for Niles. "NIIIILES!"
"O great, now I have to sit through 3 hours of staring at Butler Boy!" That little annoying voice was popping up in C.C.'s head again. It did that ever since she came back from "The Place." 'Yeah right what do my doctors know, that voice is bad and I don't need to consider what it is saying!' C.C. a man just proposed to you! He let out his feelings and what do you do? Crush them. You could be with him right now. You know you want him! Go! 'O god! What am I thinking. I need something to drink! Alcohol will quiet that voice down. It always does."
"NIIILLES!" Fran was running up the staris to Niles room. "Where is he?"
Just then Niles walks through the front door looking horrible. "What? Don't scream I have a major hangover."
"Niles, Miss Babcock agreed to dinner with you!"
Perks up. "She did?"
"Yes she said tonight!"
"O my god! What do I wear? I need a suite. I will have to borrow Maxwell's. I need to start getting ready. I need a flower, candy,..."
"Niles it's 9:00 a.m. You don't need to get ready yet. Get some rest. I will go tell Miss Babcock a time you will pick her up. OK?"
"Ok Fran. Thanks." He runs up the stairs so happy. I can't beleive it! She agreed to dinner. She must feel something for me. Well unless she wants to torture me more! I doubt that though. I am going to make this the best night of her life. He plops down on his bed exausted.
7:00 p.m.
There was a knock at C.C.'s door. She got a little excited. Then she calmed herself saying that is was only Niles. She got up and opened the door to see Niles in a formal suite. Not like the ones he wore around the house. It looked more like one of Maxwells suites. She chuckled to herself. His smell was overwhelming. He smelled not like Tilex or Lemon Fresh. She loved this new smell. Then she came to her senses.
"Ok hurry up. I want to get this over with!"
"Ok. Here I got you this." Niles hands her a light purple Orchid.
O my gosh no one has ever gotten me an Orchid. It is soooo beautiful. "Thanks. Now lets go."
She puts the flower on her table and heads out. Niles, who is a little disappointed, follows her.
They ride in the cab in scilence. Both of them feel the tension. "Where are we going Niles?"
"Uh? Oh well I thought we would go to the Russian Tea Room and then go dancing."
"I only agreed to dinner." What are you saying? Of course you want to go dancing! You have a semi-handsome man as your date and you have nothing else to do!
"O well that's ok." Dang it! I should have known she wouldn't want to come here. Fran just probably begged her to go to dinner with me!
They ate dinner in scilence. Only pnce did they talk to the waiter when he was taking their orders.
C.C. had brought a tape recorder with her. If she was going to spend her time with this man she was going to have something to show for it. Something that would give her the chance to throw zingers at him the rest of her carrer. C.C. got the tape recorder ready.
"So Niles why the sudden change of feelings?"
"Well...uh..."
"Spit it out."
"Will you marry me?"
C.C. had got it. She stopped the tape. She couldn't beleive he had done it again. It was so perfect.
"Will you stop that. I will not nor will I ever marry you!"
C.C. got up and ran out of the Tea Room. Niles was right behind her. "Sorry it just came out!"
"Get away from me I am going home!"
Niles and C.C. got in sperate cabs that were heading in the opposite directions. Both were thinking the exact same thing. Why did I do that? I ruined the evening. Why do I have to be so dumb.
When Niles came home he went straight to the Sheffields bedroom. As he was about to knock Fran opened the door. "Niles! How did the date go!?!?"
"I proposed to her again and she refused me once again. I can't stand the humiliation. I can't be under the same roof with that women. I quit."
Maxwell choses that moment to walk in from the nursery from checking on the "babies". "You what!!!"
"Now honey please calm down. Niles you aren't serious...are you?"
"Yes I am. I will need a few days to pack and then I am going back to England. Mabye with an ocean between us I can get over her." He walks out and goes to his bedroom.
"Fran what did you do."
Fran tells him the whole story about the dinner. "I didn't really butt in I just gave them a nudge."
"Why is is when you always nudge something happens?"
"Honey please. We will settle everything in the morning when Miss Babcock gets here."
"Mabye you are right. I will just make her apologize."
"Ok. I need some rest." They turn out the lights to get some sleep.
C.C. walked into her apartment.
'I can't beleive I said that. O well, I already screwed things up. I might as well use this tape. This will be so sweet!' C.C. Babcock what are you doing? You know you have a chance with him even after tonight. The man nearly admitted loving you. Don't screw things up with that tape. They might be beyond repair after that. C.C. shakes her head. 'I wish that voice would shut up!'
The next day C.C. walks in through the kitchen door. She spots Fran in the kitchen and decides to play her the tape.
"Nanny Fine you gotta here this." She presses the 'play' button on her tape player.
Fran had a shocked look on her face. "What are you going to do with that tape?"
"Well duh! What do you think? I am going to torture Niles. The best part is these little tapes fit in my answering machine."
"How cold are you Miss Babcock?"
"Now you know why Niles calls me the Ice Princess."
C.C. starts walking to the office, Fran hot on her tracks. They both stop when they see Niles and Maxwell talking in the living room.
"C.C. there you are! You need to apologize to Niles."
"No way!"
"C.C. do it or you won't be welcomed..."
"In this house or in my company I know I know. Alright fine. Well Niles you see...Help me Nanny Fine!"
"Niles she knows she would be lucky to have you as a husband but you see she is...she is...she's gay!"
"I am not. Listen Niles what happened, happened. No one but the four of us will ever know."
C.C. accidently pushes the 'play' button on her tape recorder.
Niles eyes bug out when he hears the tape. "I can't take this I am quitting."
"C.C. apologize."
"Why should I have to apologize to that sorry excuse for a man?"
"Ditto, but at least I know when to walk away. I don't pine for someone that has married someoe half my age. Look! Their married, they have a baby on the way. Where are you going to be in 20 years from now? Saying Merry Christmas to your friends in rehab and wondering what might have been. I am leaving in the morning sir." Niles walks up the stairs ready for a drink.
"O my god! He is right. The best years of my life are gone and they sucked! Maxwell I need to move on. My resignation will be on your desk in the morning." She walks out of the door holding back her tears.
"Fran look what you've done!"
"Oppsy!"
As C.C. stepped by the curb to hail a cab it started to rain. His words stung her so much, but it was reality. Reality stung her like a bee. She didn't know what was going to happen, but she needed to think.
Niles stood by an upstairs window looking down at C.C. She was so beautiful even when she was all wet. It was the last time he would see her. How he wished he would just go down there and get her. He knew that would never happen. *Only if it weren't raining he would have known that C.C. was crying.*
C.C. stepped in her pent house. She needed a drink, but was too tired to get it. She was too tired to do anything, let alone think. She need to get some rest. As she plopped down on her bed she fell into a deep sleep.
"I loath you!"
"I despise you!"
"Servant"
"Trollop"
"Bell Boy"
"Brunette!"
Their lips ment. C.C. never wanted to pull away. This felt so right. She wanted to know who this was. She tried to pull away wanting to see who the dream boy was. It was Niles!
C.C. woke up. She remembered her dream! Then she knew this was the dream she had been having all along. She was dreaming about the man she loved. It was Niles. I can't beleive it! All this time I have loved him! Looking at her clock it read 7:55 a.m. She needed to talk to Niles. She had to stop him from leaving. Getting up and getting dressed quickly she ran out her door.
As C.C. got to the Sheffield Mansion she rang the bell. Who she expected to answer the door was Niles, but it wasn't. It was Nanny Fine. "Where's Niles?"
She had been crying and her mascara was running. "He left about 10 minutes ago!"
"Where'd he go?"
"England, London. He went on the TWA airlines. Why?"
"No time to explain tell Maxwell that I changed my mind about resigning."
C.C. ran to her cab before it left. "The airport and step on it." She needed to get to that airport before Niles left. She had to tell him. Tell him that she loved him. Yes she said it. She loved him. She couldn't beleive it herself.
As the cab pulled up to the airport she got out and threw the cabdriver his money. She ran to the TWA counter and asked if they were bording the flight to London. "Yes ma'm. It is about to take off in 10 minutes." Now what? He is leaving your life for good. Go after him!
"Do you have anymore seats left?"
"Let me check. Yes we have one in coach left. Do you wish to buy it?"
"Yes charge it and hurry!" After she had purchased the ticket C.C. ran to her gate. She needed to get into the airplane. As C.C. stepped on she couldn't find Niles. She wanted to look in first class. 'Mabye Maxwell bought him a first class ticket as a going away present' she thought
"Excuse me miss, but you will have to sit in your seat and you are not allowed to go in first class."
"Damn! Ok thanks." She would have to wait until the plane landed in England. She sat in her seat and started to think. What am I doing? I didn't even think, I just bought the ticket and ran on the plane. Gosh I must really love this man. What am I going to say to him? Will he reject me? Will he forgive me? I don't see how he could. After what I did to him. I wouldn't forgive me either!
8 hours later:
"Thanks for flying TWA and have a safe and funfilled trip." As C.C. got off the plane she was waiting for Niles. She saw him. He was the last one off and he had a bunch of luggage with him.
She walked up to him. She knew with all the bags he couldn't see her face. "Can I give you a hand."
"Yeah thanks," came a reply from behind the bags. As he handed some of the bags to her he saw her face. "O my god! Miss Babcock?" Am I seeing things?
"Niles I needed to tell you something. I love you!"
"What?"
"See I realized that last night. I can't live without you!"
Niles drops the bags and goes over and kisses C.C. She melts in his arms. That kiss from so long ago, that kiss that she had always dreamt about since the day it happened came back to her. Suddenly, realizing where they were they pull away.
"Are you sure this isn't another joke?"
"I am positive! So are we going to catch the next flight home?"
"Yeah right and waste my ticket that Max gave me! I want to see England and your coming with me." He grabs her hand and pulls her to the baggage claim.
"So what changed your mind?"
"Well you see I have been having these dreams."
"Really?" His eyebrow risies up
"About that kiss three years ago. I couldn't remember the dream until last night. I realized I couldn't live without you. I love you Niles and I love to say that." She smiles at him and lays her head on his shoulder.
"I love you too Miss Babcock."
As C.C. pulls him into a kiss she suductiviley whispers "Call me C.C."
1 year later:
"I can't beleive we are moving to California."
"I know witch isn't in fabulous?" Niles walks out of the Sheffield Mansion hand in hand with his knewly wed wife.
"Yes it truly is, and do you know what else is fabulous? This little bundle of joy I am carrying."
"Yeah, lets just hope it is not the little hell raiser like it's mommy."
"Niles, C.C. hurry up. We're going to miss our flight." They both wince as they hear Fran Sheffield's voice call to them.
"I am going to miss New York. At least I have my own souviner to take with me." She kisses her husband. "Who would have thought that you and I would be married."
"It was meant to be Babs." Niles says happily as they walk away from their past and step into their future.
The End
