Part 1
The National Christmas Tree
Washington D.C.
11:00pm
December 23, 2004
The stars were out shining, the ground was covered in a layer of thin, white fluffy snow, and the air cold and crisp. The National Christmas Tree was lit brightly, and people were walking about admiring it, taking in the beauty of the holiday season. Mac sat on a bench in front of the beautiful tree. She smiled to herself. She hadn't felt this happy in a long time, and at this moment, all felt right. She looked up into the clear sky and admired the stars. All around her she could hear the joyous voices of children who were out late enjoying the spirit of Christmas with their families. It warmed her inside.
It was 11pm now, and she searched the crowds for any sign on her best friend Harm. She thought of how the past year after Paraguay had changed their friendship. Though it had been rough for the first few months after Harms return to Jag, they had slowly rebuilt their friendship to where it was now. They were back on the right path again, each hoping to soon, take their friendship to a new level of commitment, understanding, and someday, admission of love. They were back to being the best of friends, and nothing right now could make either of them happier.
They had agreed to meet tonight, December 23, at 11pm, at The National Christmas Tree to exchange their gifts to each other. They both thought it would make a beautiful new tradition for them. The atmosphere there was so full of happiness and contentment. Mac thought they couldn't have asked for a more perfect night.
Her eyes continued to search the crowds for Harm. It was going on 11:30pm now, and though Harm had a habit of being late, it was getting pretty late even for him. She couldn't imagine what might be keeping him.
Mac looked down at the gift she had in her hands for Harm. It was fairly small and wrapped in red tissue paper, tied with golden ribbon. On the tag she had written "To my Flyboy, Love Your Marine". She thought the gift perfect for him, considering where they were in their friendship right now. She held it loosely in her both her hands, feeling the emotion she had put into the gift, as her right thumb gently ran across the right side of the wrapped gift.
It was midnight now. Harm had not shown up and Mac did not understand why. With a heavy, sad heart, Mac got up off the bench, and once again looked up into the shining stars. She said a whispered message to Harm, where ever he may be.
"I don't know where you are Harm, but I am wishing you a Merry Christmas".
There was more emotion and unsaid feelings in her message to Harm than words she actually whispered. It was too hard for her to put her feelings into words, even if they were only whispered to the stars.
She looked back down at her gift in her hands, and with a sad sigh, she turned and walked back to her car to go home.

Somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean
Just before midnight
December 23, 2004
Harm looked out the airplane window, and felt a cold chill shiver through his body. He knew she had waited for him that night. He vowed silently to himself, this would be the last time he would ever hurt Mac, the woman he loved so dearly.
