Hello hello! New year, same garbage me! I apologize for not updating this in 1000 years, but life got to me. These are all super corny. I used suggestions from the reviews! Still a lot more to go but we'll get there eventually.

Just a reminder that each drabble is at a different point in time, and not necessarily connected.

I do not own The Nanny or the characters.

Toothpaste

"How many times do I have to tell you to put the cap back on the toothpaste when you're done with it?" Niles called from the bathroom.

CC rolled her eyes, refusing to feed into this stupid argument again. She had to finish this manuscript before she could sleep and she didn't have enough energy to argue over something so...Well, stupid.

"Babs? Did you hear me?" Niles asked walking up to their bed, toothpaste in hand.

"Yeah yeah" She mumbled trying to close the subject.

"Not yeah yeah" Niles sighed. "Do you even care that I clean that sink with bleach every other day? What if that bleach gets in your toothpaste, gets into your bloodstream, and hurts the baby?"

CC finally looked up from her work. "Wait, that's why you've been harassing me about the cap? You think that the baby is going to get hurt?"

"Yes! You already won't listen to the doctor and work less. I just want to make sure that the rest of the pregnancy is smooth sailing".

He screwed on the cap before putting the tube back in it's rightful place.

Screw it she thought, throwing her work onto the end table.

"Starting now I promise to work less and put the cap on my toothpaste, as long as you promise to find a different cleaner and never nag me again about something so ridiculous".

"Deal" Niles said as he leaned in to kiss his witch.

Loan

It was December 23rd and CC walked into the kitchen to put her coffee mug in the sink. Niles was talking on the phone when he should have been working (big shocker) and she had fully planned on messing with him before she left, but it sounded like he was trying to handle something important.

Being true to her nosey self, she went to the living room and picked up the other phone to listen in.

"I'm sorry , but we cannot extend your payment any further. If you do not pay us $200 by the end of the day we will have to turn off your power. Have a nice day".

CC quickly hung up the phone, more confused than ever. Niles doesn't have a house. Why is he paying an electric bill? It was none of her business so maybe she should stay out of i- Screw it.

"Niles!" She yelled. The butler made his way to the living room with a groan.

"What? It's too snowy out to ride your broom so you need me to take you home?"

She brushed off his wisecrack, even though she thought it was a decent one.

"Why are you paying an electric bill? Or better yet why don't you have enough money to pay it? I know what Maxwell pays you and I don't see why you would have to postpone your payment".

Niles' jaw dropped. "It's none of your bloody business. But if you must know my cousin's husband just left her and her three kids. I've been helping her stay afloat while she gets her life together. I also helped her to make sure her kids wouldn't have to have a bad Christmas on top of that".

"Oh" CC croaked out, feeling embarrassed. Maybe she went too far this time.

"Do you need me to start the limo to take you home?" Niles asked, clearly annoyed with her.

Then it hit her. "No, but I have a solution for your problem".

Niles didn't trust her and that was obvious. "What?"

"I'll loan you the money. I may not like children or people at all really, but they have to have electricity. You can pay me back whenever". She grabbed her checkbook out of her purse and quickly wrote one out, holding it out for Niles to take.

He examined her for a moment. "What's the catch?"

She shook her head. "No catch. I promise. It's just a loan".

Niles carefully took the check from her, unsure of what to say other than "who are you and what have you done with CC Babcock?"

She smiled, knowing that she won this round without even having to insult him.

Swings

"Higher Niles, higher!" Gracie squealed as she soared through the air. He happily complied, relishing in her laugh and glee.

"I hate the park" CC groaned, crossing her arms over her chest. Why she agreed to come with he had no clue, but damn did he hate that she did.

"If you were just going to complain the whole time why did you come Ms. Babcock?" Fran asked from the bench a few feet away.

"I wanted fresh air" She said as if it was obvious.

"Don't you like the swings ?" Gracie asked as Niles continued to push her.

"I actually...I've never been on a swing".

"You've never been on a swing?" They all yelled at the same time.

"Nope. Father didn't like us to get dirty".

Gracie stretched her legs so that her feet could drag in the dirt and slow down the swing. " you have to try it! Niles will you push you, right Niles?"

"Off a cliff" He said under his breath.

"Yeah try it! It's fun" Nanny Fine insisted.

"Fine. I don't see what the big deal is" She grumbled as she sat on the swing.

Niles pretended to struggle to push her forward, complete with grunting and wiping away the sweat on his brow.

"Oh shut up tidy bowl".

Niles chuckled and gave her a few hardy pushes to get her started.

"Alright now use your legs!" Gracie encouraged.

And she did.

"Look guys I'm swinging!"

CC was enjoying herself even though she was only five feet off the ground at most.
