A/N this kind of a spoil for un the night and music I am using mostly only scenes with hawkeye and Margaret in them because to me this episode seemed to be very HM in a way I am also switching up the lines a bit to make it fit so that's why I chose it R&R please feedback is welcome if it good or bad I like the harsh stuff makes me figure out how to write better well enjoy later chapters up soon

UN the night and the music

Chapter 1 everyone knows

Hawkeye sat at the desk in post op reading a chart when Mr. pier O'Hansen walked in as B.J wheeled a patient to OR ,he spotted Hawkeye and sauntered over to him.

"Can I talk to you for a moment doctor Peirce?"

"Sure"

"Uh … captain, when we were in the mess tent I sensed that uh you were not happy with the attention major Houlihan was giving me "

"Margaret and I are just friends ,have yourself a hell of an evening " that broke his heart to say that because he wished it wasn't true, he started to have feelings for her very deep feelings. Over the past year and a half he and Margaret had become very close friends, they confide in each other, console each other, been through hell together she was just his world she changed so much since her divorce and everyone is delighted with the woman who came out from hiding under the army gold coloured oakleaves and joined into the little fun the doctors bring into that dismal place, Hawkeye, may even be in love with her.

"I see"

"Uh, you don't look very happy for a guy who's about to feel the earth move without the aid of artillery"

Pier hesitated to respond " Uh, can I talk to you in private"

They walked inside the door into Klinger's office, shutting the door behind them they walked slowly over to Klinger's desk.

"Captain under normal circumstances I would be over joyed at prospect of spending an evening with major Houlihan "

"But?"

"Uh her intentions only serve to me with a an embarrassing, frustrating situation "

"S'the matter you married?"

"Uhuh I'm afraid not" he took a deep breath as he was about spill his issue to him when Hawkeye cut him off.

" Whats wrong then?"

Pier paused before answering " ….. when I first came to Korea a year and a half ago I I was involved in an unfortunate accident, … a jeep on the trail I was riding in hit a land mine, … uh I was wounded, nerve damage has left me inupt."

(just a lil A/N this scene is put out longer than it originally is I put my own creations into it )

"Oh well I'm sorry to hear that "

"that's quite alright captain but also, … that's not the only reason as to why I wouldn't want to spend an evening with her, even if I hadn't been injured "

"Oh really why is that"

"well because captain Peirce, I can plainly see that yes you may be just friends but there's more to it, beneath both your eyes and major Houlihans when its between you two, if I may ask how close are you two really?"

"Well um … very, but not in that sense she's my best friend aside from B.J or captain Hunnicut. We have been through so much me and her, we have been here the longest and we are comfort to each other and I don't know she stirs something in me "

"Love"

"Excuse me ?"

"Love captain, you love her it is very obvious,"

"How do you know" Hawkeye asked very confused

"because while I suffered with my injury I could never get close to a woman since then so I watch couples and try and figure out if they really love each other, it's weird I know but I have to do something since I can no longer let myself fall in love, but I've studied you two the past couple hours and in only that little time was I able to see that you love her and even though she has been uh flirting with me I still see that you light fire in her, you have to watch the languages between you two the verbal and body language "

"Wait … wait what are you trying to say here?"
"That you love her, and she may in some way love you so fight for her do anything to make her yours "

"Well yea see that's just it she doesn't love me I'm her friend and that's all I'll ever be to her "

"Listen captain fight for her do something just try it. Now I will be going " he smiled and walked out the doors to the compound and left Hawkeye to his thoughts.
