After "Goodbye, Farwell and Amen"

By: Chrissie

I looked down as the chopper lifted off the pad to see the word Goodbye spelled out in stones, "Goodbye Beej!" I said to myself, as we were leaving what now remained of the 4077th, I couldn't help but feel an emptiness. My heart felt ill and I knew exactly why, I just couldn't let her go.

"So where you off to Captain?" asked the pilot.

"Kimpo... no, not Kimpo, I need to make a stop at the 8063rd M*A*S*H, there is something I need to take care of there." said a confident Hawkeye Pierce.

I can't believe what I'm going to do, she 's the only woman in my life who has managed to take my heart from medicine. I couldn't love Carlye enough because I loved medicine more, but now I know I can give my heart away because she stole it away the first time I laid eyes on her. Major Margaret "Hotlips" Houlihan managed to steal my heart. Oh god what if she says no, what am I going to do?

"Captain? Captain? "

"Yea?"

"We're here"

"Stay here I'll be back soon"

I've got to find her, hopefully I 'll run into a familiar face or someone who knows her.

"Kellye! Oh thank god I found you, where's Major Houlihan?"

"She is settling in her new tent"

"Where is that?"

"Right over there" as she points to the tent to her left.

"Thanks"

I walked to the tent that had that oh to familiar sign on it "Major M. Houlihan Knock Before Entering," so I knocked.

"Come in!"

"Margaret! Margaret! Thank god I found you, I thought I 'd lost you forever"

"What do you mean?"

"I'm taking you with me back to Crabapple Cove"

"Oh, Hawkeye!" she knew exactly what he was doing something she waited for a long long time.

"I'm taking you with me to Maine, to Crabapple Cove, I love you Margaret and I can't bare another moment without you by my side, marry me and make me the happiest man alive, what do you say?"

"Yes, oh, Yes Hawkeye yes yes I will!"
