Hi guys,

Here's the sequel to my other story 'the exchange'.

I'm sorry it took so long but my grandpa died and we had to go to his house to clean it and stuff. Since he lived abroad I didn't have a computer for 3 weeks and to be honest I wasn't really in the mood to write this. Anyways, I haven't finished writing this as I had planned but I didn't want to keep you all waiting anymore so here's part 1.

I know I kind of messed up the timeline to actually fit in with the show and there might be some other things that are not completely right but please just go with the flow.

I hope you enjoy it and please review!


Part 1:Long time no see

Harm and Sarah had kept in contact for the past 5 years. Sarah went through boot camp and basic training before she was put to work in the legal department of the corps. At the moment she was in Okinawa at the legal office.

Harm had finished High School as well and finished the academy before going through flight school. He is now stationed on board theUSS Seahawk.

"He Harm, you ready to hit the town? We're docking in a few minutes." Harm's friend Keeter said.

"Yes I'm ready but I'm not gonna hit the town, you guys go ahead and I'll meet with you later okay?" Harm answered.

"What are you going to do? Maybe we should come with you." Harm's other buddy Sturgis spoke up.

"I'm just going to visit someone I know that lives here, don't worry I'll be fine, have fun." And with that Harm left his friends to leave the ship. Leaving the harbour he found a cab and gave the driver a sheet of paper with an address.

30 minutes later the cab pulled up in front of an apartment building. After paying the driver Harm got out of the car and walked up to the entrance. When he'd reached the panel with the door bell's he found number 706 and pressed the button.

After a minute he heard a voice saying: "Hello."

He didn't recognize the voice as Sarah's so he said: "I'm sorry, I'm looking for Sarah Mackenzie, do you know where I can find her?"

"She's not home right now, why don't you come back in about half an hour, she should be home by then."

"Okay, I will, thanks." Harm sat down on the stairs in front of the entrance and waited for about 20 minutes. He heard a car approach so he looked up. The car pulled into an empty parking space before a beautiful woman in marine greens exited the car. She opened the booth and grabbed her bag and some papers which she was reading as she came over to him.

When she was close enough to hear him he said: "You're still as beautiful as ever princess."

Startled Sarah looked up at him and he could see the shock in her eyes. After a few moments she dropped her stuff, took some steps closer and whispered: "Harm?" He nodded slightly and before he knew what was happening he had a marine around his neck, hugging him like her life depended on it.

After they had stood there for what seemed like hours but were actually only minutes Sarah pulled back slightly and kissed him full on the mouth. Harm kissed her back eagerly and only pulled away because he was in need of oxygen.

"Let's go inside" Sarah whispered before attacking his mouth again.

"Okay" Came his reply.

10 minutes later they finally entered her apartment and as soon as the door was closed Sarah threw her arms around Harm's neck and hugged him tightly.

Harm burrowed his face in her neck and said: "I love you."

"I love you too stickboy."

She was just about to reach up and kiss him again when she heard a voice call out: "Mac! You can't go around kissing random guys when you expect your prince on the white horse, or should I say in the airplane, to wait for you."

Sarah spun around and she saw Vicky standing there with a twinkle in her eye. The humour was gone quickly though when she got a good look at the guy that her roommate was about to kiss. "Oh my, it's you"

"Uh, yeah, I'm me I guess." Came Harm's uncertain answer.

Sarah stepped in at that moment and introduced the two: "Harm, this is Vicky, Vicky this is Harm."

Harm walked over to Vicky and stuck out his hand saying: "Hi, it's good to finally meet you, I've heard a lot about you."

"All good I hope."

"Yeah, no worries."

"What about some pizza?" Sarah interrupted them.

"sounds good to me." Harm answered.

"What do you want Harm, I'll go and pick it up." Vicky offered.

"Uhm, veggie delight would be good, thanks."

"Okay, bye, see ya later."

"Hey, aren't you going to ask what I want?" Sarah asked.

"I'll bring you a meat lovers with extra BBQ-sauce." And with that Vicky left leaving Sarah to look at the closing door. Just then Harm walked over to her and took her in his arms. Walking them over to the couch they sat down and cuddled close together when Sarah looked up at him she said: "Why are you actually here? Aren't you supposed to be on board ship?"

"We docked here in Okinawa until Monday. I didn't write it to you because I wanted it to be a surprise."

"Well, one thing is for sure, you did surprise me."

"Good" With that his lips met hers again in a sweet kiss.

Vicky arrived home to find Harm and Mac tangled up on the couch. Mac had changed into civvies and they were now involved in a heavy make out session. Clearing her throat she almost fell over laughing because of the guilt on both their faces after they'd jumped apart.

"Pizza is here, and I picked up a movie as well if you guys want to watch."

"Oh, good, which one did you bring?" Mac asked while moving into the kitchen to get plates, glasses and some drinks.

"From Hell, it has Johnny Depp, thought you might like that."

"Oh yeah, Johnny Depp's always good."

"Who's that." Came Harm's question.

Mac and Vicky looked at him like he'd grown a second head so he said: "You know, there aren't many movies on a carrier, or the academy for that matter."

"Oh, I suppose so, well you'll see" Vicky said.

Settling down they watched the movie. Harm loved seeing this side of Sarah. She got all excited about the movie and absolutely adored it. Okay, he got kind of grossed out at the gory details but seeing his Princess get all excited when they discussed what organs had been removed by Jack the Ripper brought a smile to his face anyway.

When the movie had finished he helped Sarah to her bedroom and got a blanket for Vicky who'd fallen asleep during the movie.

When he re-entered Sarah's bedroom he found her sprawled all over the bed, wearing her pyjama top and her jeans. He sat down beside her and stroked her face while saying: "Hey princess, you need to finish getting undressed."

"You do it." Came her sleepy reply.

Not really sure what to do next he sat there for a while just watching her until he heard her whisper: "Please, I'm so tired."

Moving to the bottom of the bed he undid her jeans and took them off before dressing her in the super-short bottoms he found beside her on the bed. Moving back to the top of the bed he helped her under the covers and when he pulled back she laid there with her arms wide open. He moved into them to give her the hug she wanted and a kiss on her temple. When he wanted to straighten up though Sarah held him tighter and said: "Please stay, I haven't slept in your arms for so long." Not wanting to leave he said to her: "Okay I will, but you need to let me go for a bit so I can get undressed. She did as he asked and he stripped down to his boxers before getting into the bed. He held his arms open for her and she moved into them, laying down with her head on his chest they fell asleep almost immediately.

The End

AN: I don't think the movie already existed then but well, I like it so just go with it ;) Anyway, please leave a review!
