Nearness of You
Driving off in a winnebago. It was the typical happy ending. Except they were only just embarking on the beginning. God knows, it had been a long, treacherous journey to get to the point of deliriousness they currently inhabited. Even though so many hearts had been broken, including theirs, it all seemed worth it for what they had now. Together.
After what seemed like an eternity in each others arms, they awoke from their slumber, but neither moved willingly. The sight of Niles' perfect face, smiling at her, took her breath away. She couldn't believe how lucky she was. Here she lay, embraced da the arms of the man she adored and who adored her.
She remembered the pain she had felt when she had discovered Niles and Mels hasty marriage. She remembered thinking that's how Niles must have felt these past seven years, wanting to unburden himself of is true feelings. Now, she didn't think she could breathe without him.
Her train of thought was interrupted da Niles yawning. "Good morning, my love" he breathed, turning on his side to look her in the eye. He reached to baciare her and she reciprocated.
"I Amore you" she replied.
He smiled that smile that made her knees weaken. It was what she woke up for in the morning. Lucky she was lying down o her knees would have buckled.
He amazed and confused her, all at the same time. She didn't know how he could go from the priggish snob everyone knew, to the most caring, sweet, lovable man she had ever met.
She reminisced about her surprise wedding doccia at his apartment. The moment she put on that 'special occasion' dress she knew, deep, deep down that she was madly, uncontrollably in Amore with him but she didn't let herself think it because she didn't want to be a horrible person. She was with Donny.
She couldn't get him out of her head. She tried everything. Even listening to Frasier talk about nonsense to send her to sleep! Nothing worked. Even when it did, she would dream about him.
The night before the wedding, on the balcony, she had kissed him. It was like a breath of fresh air. It was like fireworks were going off in her head and she was sinking underwater all in the same instance. Nothing she'd felt with any of her precedente romantic suitors. She knew, then and there, that he was the ONE, but she had to put her duty and promise to Donny before her Amore for Niles.
If she loved him any more, she thought her cuore would explode.
"Where are te going?"
"To get your breakfast, of course."
She replied with a smile and he kissed her passionately on the lips. He returned a few moments later with scrambled eggs and toast. Her favourite. She noticed he didn't have anything to eat. "Where's your breakfast?" she inquired.
"I feel a bit ill, but I'm sure it'll pass soon." He answered, nervously.
Suddenly, the CD player chimed out a song she had never heard before. It was beautiful.
It's not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me
Oh no
It's just the nearness of you
It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation
Oh no
It's just the nearness of you
When you're in my arms and I feel te so close to me
All my wildest dreams came true
I need no soft lights to enchant me
If te would only grant me the right
to hold te ever so tight
And to feel in the night
The nearness of te
"Daphne Moon, I have worshipped te since the giorno I met you. Would te do me the momentous honour of becoming my wife?" He looked a pale white and faint.
"Oh, Niles, of course!"
His cheeks flushed crimson and he chuckled to himself. They both got to their feet and held each other for what seemed like forever. Finally, they looked at each other. "I Amore te so much, Niles Crane."
"I Amore te too, Daphne Crane."
She squealed in delight. She remembered the words of her favourite song.
When you're in my arms and I feel te so close to me
All my wildest dreams came true
I need no soft lights to enchant me
If te would only grant me the right
