A/N: Thank you to my beta. =) Also I plan on posting a chapter every other weekday. A lot of people aren't on the weekend so there is no need to post. This is a sequel to In Search of Harmony, which if you have not read can be found in my profile. I also want to pick at your minds…for those of you who read all of In Search of Harmony and will hopefully read all of this. (Pleaseeeeeee) How would you feel about a fic that would be a prequel to this one and In Search of Harmony. With Harmony much younger, and lots of Daddy Harm? I might have an idea but I want to see what kind of interest, if any there would be. In the mean time enjoy this and I love reviews, they are my crack. **insert sad puppy face here**

Also so you know I am almost done writing this fic, but even when I finish I will still post a chapter every other day or so. And yes there will be a prequel folks.

In Perfect Harmony

Naval Hospital

Bethesda, Maryland

Harmony watched the second hand on the clock make it's way around. Time ticked away slowly and with each passing second Harmony felt the life she dreamed of with Mike slipping away. It had been four days now and all though Mike was there physically he was a million miles away. She wanted him back, she needed him back, until he was back the pain in her chest would not go away. They had planned so much for their lives and wanted to much and now it seemed it wouldn't happen, that she needed a miracle to make this possible.

The day before they "buried" the baby in a small and very private service. Her mom and dad, Bud and Harriet, Uncle AJ, and a few other from JAG she had known for years. It was simple and short. Harmony did not want to dwell on baby Michael's death, it would only make matters worse.

"You should eat something." Harm's voice broke through the silence. "How about some Beltway Burgers?"

"I'm fine, I am not hungry." Harmony looked up at him for a moment and then down at Mike taking his hand.

"Please eat something for me. Please?" He knew it had been a while since his daughter had a substantial meal.

"In a little bit, not right now." She had dark circles under her eyes, she hadn't slept since the accident, most of her time was spent at the hospital at Mike's bedside. Hoping, waiting, and praying. Suddenly she felt something, it wasn't much but she felt it, a slight squeeze. "Mike?" There it was again. "Get the doctor! I think Mike is waking up."

"Mike?" Bud called out to his brother. "Mike, it's Bud if you can hear me I want you to squeeze Harmony's hand."

"He squeezed it, Bud he squeezed it. He heard you." Harmony grinned.

"Mike, it's me Harmony. Just relax the doctor will come and remove that tube for you." She spoke trying to push his hand away so he wouldn't take out the tube.

Moments later the doctor came through the door. "Ok Lieutenant Roberts, I want you to inhale and hold it until I tell you and then when I say to exhale blow like you would blow up a balloon."

Frantically Mike nodded his head.

"Ok, inhale." The doctor held on to the tube. "Now on the count of 3 blow ok. 1,…, 2,…, 3,…, Mike did exactly as told. Coughing for a few he took hold of the glass of water Harmony handed to him.

"Ok Lieutenant Roberts we have to get you upstairs for a MRI and a CAT scan, everything seems ok from the outside, but we want to check inside."

"I'll be here when you get back ok." Harmony kissed him softly.

Mike looked at her. "Listen to your dad," his raspy words came. "Eat something, for you and the baby."

Harmony swallowed hard. "O-ok." Harmony managed to smile. When he came back she was going to have to tell him. Using sign language she signed I love you to Mike.

He nodded tiredly and smiled, blowing her a kiss as he was wheeled out of the room.

"I have to deal him, and I have no idea how the hell to do it." Harmony sank into the chair. "But he has to know."

"Just tell him, avoiding it will only make matters worse." Harriet spoke softly. "I know it's going to be hard, and it's going to hurt, but you and Mikey have each other and together you will both get through this." Taking her hand Harriet gave it a good squeeze.

When Mike returned it was just Harmony in the room. She felt it would be easier with out an audience. "So what did the doctor say?"

"Well they're going to put the piece of skull back on." Mike replied.

Those words made her a little uncomfortable she knew how close she had come to losing him. "Good, that's good."

"I have to stay here a while for therapy and all." Mike mused. "Will stay with me tonight?"

"Of course. Listen Mike we need to talk." Harmony took a deep breath.

"Everything ok?" his voice was filled with concern, then fear when he saw her crying. "Harmony?"

"Mike – I – I uh –" This was harder than she thought.

"You're breaking up with me aren't you? You don't want to get married?"

"What?" Harmony looked at him. "No I'm not breaking up with you. I want to marry you. Mike! Mike I lost the baby."

"What? Harmony. How?" He closed his eyes and a few tears leaked out of his eyes. "Oh babe…"

"After the accident I went into labor and then my water broke and they couldn't save the baby. I am so, so, -so- sorry. I'm – I'm so sorry." She openly sobbed.

Mike weakly pulled her into him. "Shhh." He was crying as well. "It's ok, we'll get through this. Ok. I love you no matter what." His tears dropped down on to her head and he could feel her tears soaking the front of his gown.

"They still haven't caught him. Your brother has been on a rampage; he had Bethesda police pull red light cameras, banks, and any place near the scene that had a camera he pulled it. He's been calling witnesses and everything. He really hasn't rested since the accident." Harmony held on to Mike. "Last time he was on a vendetta like this was when Harriet…when baby Sarah died."

Mike kissed the top of Harmony's head. "He won't rest until he finds the S.O.B either. I know Bud and when he gets like this he won't stop."

"You still love me right? You still want to get married?" Harmony lifted her head and looked at him.

"Of course I do. Harmony I loved you before the baby, I still love you now. I will always love you." Mikey held her close.

Harmony reached her arm around Mikey and held on to him. "I was scared, I thought I was going to lose you and I was so scared. Mike I can't remember what life was like before you and I don't want to know what life would be like without you."

"I am not going to anywhere so you don't have to worry about that happening. You and I," he ran his fingers through her hair. "We are in this together for the long haul."

"Good because I need you Mike. I need you and I will always need you." Harmony kissed his cheek. She could tell it hurt for him to talk reaching across the counter she grabbed the cup of water. "Here have some."

He took the plastic cup into his hand and sipped from the straw. "You're so good to me." He spoke after taking several sips.

Smiling Harmony removed the cup from his hands and set it on the table along side his bed. "Well you'll like this then." Leaning in she pressed her lips against his, and even though his face needed a good shave she cupped her hands around face. Her eyes were open for a moment as they stared deeply into them. I love you so much."

"I love you more." He felt a smile sweep across his lips.

"Is that so Lieutenant Roberts?" Harmony deepened the kiss, letting her tongue slipped between his lips and explore his mouth.

Mike was about to say something when the door opened and Bud walked through. He was beat red. "Hey Bud."

Pulling away from the kiss, Harmony blushed and wiped off her mouth. "I uhm…" it was hard trying not to laugh. "I think I am going to go find some food." She grinned at him. "Olive juice." Harmony winked at Mikey.

"Olive juice too." He blew her a kiss. "Hey bring me some juice or Gatorade or something."

"I can do that." Harmony said before closing the door behind her.

1539 Zulu

Naval Hospital

Bethesda, Maryland

His recovery was going smoothly he had been here for two weeks already and if things kept going as good as they were he would be home in about two weeks. Mikey couldn't wait to get out of the hospital and be back home with Harmony. It didn't seem the same not sleeping in the same bed as her. It didn't feel right and truth be told he missed holding her at night, and seeing her when he woke up.

"Knock, knock, knock." A voice came from the other side of the door.

Mikey was shocked. "Cam-Cammie, hey what are you doing here?"

She grinned at Mikey. "Well my dad said you were here, that there was some kind of accident. I was in town and I figured I would stop by." He grinned at him licking her lips. "I brought you some goodies. Magazines you like, your favorite candy bars, I made you some brownies."

Oh, uhm thank you. You can put them over there." Mikey pointed to a table. "So you came to see me out of the blue?"

"Not really out of the blue Mikey." She took his hand and stroked the back of it. "I've been thinking about us lately. I really have. I miss you, I miss what we had."

"We can't have that anymore." Mikey pulled his hand away; disgusted.

"Mikey…" Cammie pleaded.

"You cheated on me. You went and had sex with someone else, we were done then, we will never be us again. I moved on and so should you."

She sat down on his bed and ran her finger down the middle of his chest. "But Michael." The back of her hand stroked his cheek. "Please, I'm sorry."

"I'm engaged Cam, I have a fiancé." Mike pushed her hand off of his face. He wanted nothing to do with this.

"So I hear. She's Harm's daughter. That little dorky girl who used to hang around JAG. She was so annoying. Isn't she like 16 or something?"

"Twenty-six and she isn't a dork nor is she annoying. I love her and unlike you she hasn't cheated on me." Mike bitterly told her. "Listen I appreciate the effort you put in to coming here, but you really should go. We can't and never will be together. I have a life that doesn't include you."

"But do you will want to spend the rest of your life with some frumpy girl who couldn't hack it as a pilot so she had to become a legal weenie?" Cammie now ran her hand up his leg, letting her hand linger on his inner thigh.

"No I don't. I want to spend my life with a beautiful amazing girl who is going to be one hell of a lawyer and was one damn good amazing pilot." Mikey shoved her hand off. "Your crap isn't going to work Cammie. It's done! It's over! We are never going to be a couple! Never! I really think you should leave before I say something I can't take back."

A cunning smile crossed Cammie's slim lips and she leaned in and pressed her lips against his, her hand wandering up his thigh once more. "Come on she can't possibly make you feel as good as I did." Cammie spoke through the kiss. She pressed her lips harder against his deepening the kiss. "Don't deny your real feelings Lieutenant Roberts.9 D

"Mike guess what I-" Harmony came too a dead stop just inside his room. "M-Mike?" She was stunned seeing what was taking place.

Mike shoved Cammie off of him. His eyes met Harmony's and he could see the hurt. "Harmony I can explain. I-"

"You what? Huh Mike? Tell me? Just thought it would be fun to make out with the queen of crabs behind my back?" Harmony said bitterly as tears rolled down her cheeks. Her heart was broken and suddenly she felt stupid for allowing Mikey into her heart.

He felt sick to his stomach. The hurt was written all over her face, he shot a cold glance towards Cammie. "Tell her the truth Cammie, tell her it was you!" He hissed through clenched teeth.

Turning toward Harmony she smirked. He pulled me in, he just grabbed me and his lips met mine. I tried to stop him, but he only pulled my hand towards his," she nodded her head to the side. "You know…I guess you can't please him like I can; he had to look elsewhere."

"You conniving little, STD carrying, worthless, two dollar, white trash whore!" Harmony hissed.

"Cammie you need to leave now!" Mike stated.

"Oh no I wouldn't dream of it." Harmony said with through tears. "She can stay." Harmony threw the DVD she had been looking for at Mike, then pulled the engagement ring off of her finger and threw that at him. "I am leaving. You and I Mike are done. Have fun with your tramp." She couldn't stop crying. "I hate you!" Harmony growled slamming the door behind her as she left the room.

Cammie grinned, happy with her success. "Well now that she is out of the way, where were we?"

"You were leaving. GET THE HELL OUT OF MY ROOM NOW!" Mike shouted. "I never want to see you again. Ever! Take all that crap with you. I don't want it."

"Fine. But you heard her she said you were over. Before you know it you'll be crawling back to me, begging me to take you back. You had your chance, I am not going to be any bodies sloppy seconds." Cammie turned her head away from Mike as she grabbed the stuff she brought in.

"Not likely." Mike said reaching for the phone he had to call Harmony he had to fix this. Listening to the ringing he bent down and picked up the ring.

"Hey…"

"Harmony-" Mikey quickly spoke.

"-I'm not here, you know what to do. Bye." There was a long beep.

Her voicemail. That was not what Mike wanted. "Harmony call me please. Please talk to me. I love you baby." Hanging up her dialed Bud's number, maybe if he saw her Bud could get Harmony to call him.

It didn't take long for word to spread about what had happened. Within hours everyone close to Harmony knew what had happened. Harm was the first to take action by stopping over at her apartment. He knocked on the door, "hey can I come in?" Harm opened the door peaking in.

Harmony sat on the couch, hugging a pillow with her knees pulled up to her chest. Her cheeks were stained with tears. "If I said no would it matter?"

Harm closed the door behind him. "I know you are hurt and mad, but you need to let him explain Harmony."

"He was kissing her dad, tongue and all. There is nothing he can say that will make it any better. I am not a character on one of those crazy soaps he watches, I am not going to go crawling back to him. It hurt dad it hurt real bad. I let the boy into my heart and he shatters it."

"He said Cammie made the first move." Harm sat down on the couch next to her.

"He didn't seem like he hated it. He wasn't fighting her off. If he didn't want it he would have done more to stop it."

"Harmony, give the boy a chance. He loves you."

"Then why was he playing tonsil hockey with her? He obviously doesn't love me that much."

Harm pulled his sobbing daughter into his arms, kissing her temple. "Just don't do anything to harsh."

"Dad, it's over. I can't marry someone who has his eyes on someone else. I am always going to have to question whether or not I am good enough for him, or does he want her."

"You're the one he wants. He called Bud and he was pretty upset. He said that you gave the ring back and all."

"I had to turn my phone off. He wouldn't stop calling him. There is nothing he can say can make me feel better, can make this go away. Her skanky ass hand was on his thigh dad, any closer and she would be pulling taffy."

"That's more detail than I needed to know, but he cares about you so much just think about it. Give him a shot, don't give up on him, he loves you so much. You love him right?"

"I thought I did, but after what I saw today, I don't know if I can love someone who would hurt or betray me like that, yet alone trust them." Harmony dried some tears off of her face. "Dad I just want to be alone, ok? I need…no I want sometime to think and clear my head."

Harm nodded. "Ok, if you need anything give me a call. He placed a small kiss on her cheek. "I love you and I will see you at work tomorrow ok?"

"I love you too dad, give Lil' Mac a hug and a kiss for me and tell her I love her. Share the love with mom as well."

"I think I can handle that. It's going to work out Harmony just give it time." Harm hesitated at the door. "See you tomorrow Princess." He closed the door behind him.

Harmony stayed seated on the couch for a few minutes, her eyes focused on a picture of her and Mikey. It was taken the night he asked her to marry him. Grabbing it she threw it against the wall, the glass shattered and dropped to the floor. "Asshole!" Not bothering to clean up the mess Harmony crossed through the living room and into the kitchen. Pulling the refrigerator opened she peered inside hoping to hunt something down to eat. She grabbed a carton of yogurt and was about to close the door when she stopped. Harmony was never a drinker. She had a sip of wine the night her father and Mac got married but that was all she ever had. Grabbing the bottle of vodka she slammed the door shut and brought the bottle and yogurt over t o the table. There was a first for everything.
