9:04 Zulu

JAG Headquarters

Falls Church, VA

Not another bad day! Mac thought as she walked into JAG.  Late for work and hope the admiral doesn't notice…raining outside…my uniform is soaked…I'm freezing…I've got too many things to do today…and to add to that, my neck is killing me…and… She wasn't watching where she was going and walked right into Harm.  The only thing that snapped her out of her thoughts was Harm's arms going around her waist, catching her so she didn't fall. God if only he knew how much my heart is racing with his arms around me

"You okay there, marine? You're soaked."

"I'm fine and it's raining, of course I'm soaked!" She answered snottily and stormed off to her office.

Mac's office

knock knock

"Enter!" Mac said in a grouchy, tired voice.  Harm walked in and closed the door behind him.  Mac was focused on the three billion cases she had on her desk.  He stood there for a few minutes until she looked up at him, "Yes, Harm? Do you want something?"

"Yes I want my best friend to be in a better mood, because her bad mood is bringing me down."

"Well I'm sorry I'm bringing you down, but my mood ain't gonna change."

"Alright, Ninja Girl, tell your flyboy what's going on."

She sighed heavily, getting annoyed, "I'm fine."

"No you aren't so tell me before I get it out of you the hard way."

"I doubt you'll be able to do that." She mumbled, thinking he didn't' hear her, but he did.

"I heard that!"

"And your point is?"

"Mac please tell me what's wrong.  I really want to know."

"Oh you wouldn't care about my problems."

"Try me, Sarah." He smiled softly and sat down ready to listen. 

Doesn't he know what he does to me whenever he says my name?

She put her stuff down and rubbed her eyes, "Just about everything that could go wrong today has."

"Not everything has gone wrong."

"What do you mean?"

He reached over the stack of cases and took her hand in his and softly kissed her palm. "I'm still here and you're still my best friend."

The kiss shocked Mac and her skin was tingling, "Thanks, Harm."

"Anytime marine…" he got up from his seat and walked around back her chair, "…I can fix that stiff neck of yours too that you look like you have."

Mac looked up and him, "How?"

He started massaging her shoulders, "Like this.  Just relax and let my fingers do the work." I know somewhere else your fingers can do some work…woah marine, down girl! I know you like the feel of his hands and fingers on you, but slow down! "Wow you're really tensed up, Mac."

"I just think I desperately need a massage.  I haven't had one in a really long time."

"Why don't you come over tonight and we can have dinner and I'll give you a massage."

"Uh…" Say yes marine, just say yes! "…I really have to work on my cases…" Marine! She scolded herself mentally. "…But I need a break so sure, what time?"

"How about 7?"

"7 is perfect.  Oh and Harm?"

"Yes?"

"Thanks.  Just for being here and being my friend."

He smiled softly, "Anytime, Sarah, you know that."

She smiled back at him.  He left her office and she let out a breath she didn't know she was holding.

6:00 Est. time

Mac's apartment

Georgetown, VA

Mac was in her bedroom, picking out something to wear over Harm's for dinner.  She was standing in front of the mirror, looking at the shirt with pants on and thought to herself What am I getting so dressed up for? I'm just going to Harm's for dinner.  Am I trying to impress him? He's my best friend, why am I acting like this…because I'm in love with him. She sighed.  She looked at the clock, instead of checking her internal one, "6:20…enough time to brush my teeth and go." She went into her bathroom and brushed her teeth.  She wiped her mouth and grabbed her purse and left.

7:00 Est. time

Harm's Apartment

North of Union Station

knock knock

Harm opened the door and gasped at the angel that was in his doorway. "Wow, Mac, you look beautiful."

She walked in when he moved aside, "Wanted to look nice for you." Nice one marine! That was great! She smiled mentally.

"You always look beautiful for me Mac."

She blushed, "Thank you Harm."

He just flashed her his smile and her heart jumped and she tried to control her breathing, "I wanted to apologize for being snotty to you before."

"It's alright, you were having a bad day."

"Thanks for understanding."

"No problem.  Now come on and sit down, dinner is ready."

"Don't tell me its Harm's Meatless Meatloaf."

"Of course it is.  I made it just for the sake of you not liking it." He teased.

She slapped his arm playfully, "I'm gonna kill you flyboy."

"Under my dead body!"

"Red light commander!" She said shocked he said that.

"Only if you want it that way!" He grinned.

"Oh my god! Harm, you're on a roll tonight."

"Only cause you're here ninja girl."

He was just blowing her away tonight.  They sat down at the table and ate dinner.

"Wow Harm! That was delicious! Thank you so much."

"Anytime marine."

They both got up and Harm brought the dishes to the sink and cleaned them, "Mac go sit on the couch and I'll be there in a minute."

"Okay." She walked to the couch and lay down, making herself comfortable. 

He came over to her and saw her eyes closed.  He teased her, "Don't fall asleep on me." And poked her side and she squirmed and giggled.  He raised his eyebrow, "Is someone ticklish?"

Uh-oh! She thought.

She tried to lie, "No."

He leaned over her, one hand behind her on the couch and one in the front of her and he whispered into her ear, making her heart like a racehorse, "I think you are ticklish." He put his hand against her side and she bit her bottom lip.  He looked at her from the side of her face and grinned, "Are you?"

"Maybe."

"Maybe I should find out."

She laughed, "No!"

He tickled her side a little and she laughed, "You are ticklish."

"Ah! Stop! She threw her arm down to protect her side.  He took both of his hands and tickled both her sides.  She started laughing hysterically as she backed into him.  She leaned back against him, "Please…ahahah…stop!"

He stopped, "I knew it!" She just leaned against him, loving the feeling of him behind her.  He put his hands on her shoulders and massaged them.  She tensed up a little, "It's okay marine, just relax."

It's hard to relax when you're touching me.

He gently massaged her shoulders alternating between her shoulders and her back.  She was in total heaven and he had no idea.  He sat there for a good 15-20 minutes giving her a massage.  He heard her breaths breaking up a little.  He leaned forward to her ear and whispered softly, "Are you okay?"

 "Yeah.  You're just making me…"

"Making you what Mac?"

"You're making me very we…weak."

"Wow, I really didn't know I had that effect on you."

"Well you do."

He lightly dragged his fingers across the back of her neck and teased her, "Does this do anything?"

"Yes." She breathed.  She turned around on the couch so she was facing him, "Harm, I have to tell you something."

"What is it Mac?"

"There's no easy way to say this, but I'm in love wi…with you.  I've felt that way for a long time.  I was just too afraid you didn't feel…" She was cut off by Harm's lips on hers in a tender sweet kiss, showing all the feelings he had for her he couldn't say out loud.  He was horrible with expressing his feelings especially with Mac.  He pushed her down to the couch so she was lying under him.  He deepened the kiss and she cave in and surrendered.  She put her hands around his neck to pull him to her to deepen it even more.  He leaned into her more.  Mac suddenly broke apart, "Need air."

Harm laughed and started a trail down her neck, but paused to look into her eyes, "I'm in love with you too." He continued to kiss her neck and she gasped as Harm came in contact with her collarbone.  He kept kissing her there and she moaned, "Harm!" He made his way back to her lips and kissed her passionately.  They finally stopped and took a break from kissing for 10 minutes straight.

"So does this mean I have a girlfriend?"

"Well there are a couple of things."

"Okay what are they?"

"First off the Admiral.  Second the regs…"

"Screw that stuff Mac, I just want to be with you."

Mac smiled, "I want to be with you too."

"I love you, Sarah."

"I love you too…now lets save the talking for later shall we?" She smiled seductively.  He grinned and closed the distance between them in another endless kiss…
