A WEEK'S VACATION
My suitcases were packed. All three of them. I'd never needed three suitcases for a week's vacation, but then again I'd never gone on a vacation with Harm. I had to prepare for every possible occurrence. That, and I wanted to make sure I had every outfit I might want to wear for him....um, around him. Oh,please who am I kidding? For him.
I was a nervous wreck. I had been since yesterday morning when the Admiral called both Harm and I into his office and informed us that we would be taking a vacation. We both had just finished a very high profile case and had another on the way in a little over a week. He said he couldn't trust us to rest if we stayed in DC so he was ordering us to leave.
He had spoken to Harm's parents and it just so happened that they were going on vacation themselves and needed a house sitter for that week, and the Admiral was more than happy to offer our assistance. I can't say I minded though, a week in California in a gorgeous house is nice enough. But a week in California in a gorgeous house with a gorgeous man such as Harmon Rabb,Jr...well that's about as nice as it's going to get. Harm didn't seem too thrilled with the idea originally, but I noticed him brighten when the Admiral clarified for him that I would be house sitting with him.
So there I stood, three suitcases nearby, and a nervous sweat on the palm of my hands as I waited for Harm. It was ridiculous really. I mean I was more comfortable with Harm than anyone else practically, there was no need for me to be nervous. Except for the fact that I was in love with him. And I was so deathly afraid of giving that little secret away. But something deep down told me spending a week just Harm and I, away from JAG, away from the world...well something told me that secret wasn't going to stay kept very long.
The doorbell jarred me from my thoughts and I said aloud to myself, "Well...here we go"
