Pregnancy. Tell me
What you think?
The flight back to D.C., as the flight they'd previously been on was uneventful. But you didn't here either of them complaining. Harm had a silly grin plastered on his face. Never in his whole life was he happier. He was finally going 'home.' His home with Sarah Mackenzie.
Mac was excited. She was running a mental checklist of all the things she had to do when she got home. For one she needed to have the name on her uniform changed. Also the sign in her office. Then there was the change of address forms. Although they hadn't decided in whose apartment they would live in yet. Mac couldn't remember being this happy when she was preparing to be Mrs. Mic Brumby.
"This is your captain speaking. We are making are descent into Washington's Dulles Airport. Please fasten all seatbelts, put all seats in their upright position and stow all tray tables. Thank you for flying Delta Airlines, we hope you fly with us again in the future."
They exited the plane and headed straight for baggage claim. They had a slight problem. The amount of baggage they had left the trip with had tripled. Not to mention they three new garments bags full of clothes Webb had given them. He'd said to keep them as a wedding present.
Harm flagged down a skycap to help them with their bags. Once they had gathered all their bags, they made their way out to the long-term lot where Harm's SUV was parked.
Harm tipped the skycap and then they were on their way.
"Ok so where are we going," Mac asked as she turned on the radio.
"Well I was thinking that we could stop by my place first. I need to pick some uniforms and my briefcase. I surely have enough civvies thanks to Webb."
"Ok."
"Then I thought we'd go back to your place. I was thinking that I should just move in there. After all I would have a lot less stuff to move. Bachelors tend to collect less 'stuff'"
Harm emphasized the stuff. He could still remember the one weekend Mac had cornered him into helping her clean out her apartment. Harm didn't know where all the stuff was coming from. Box after box. At the time he didn't even understand why she wanted to clean. Every item he suggested that she get rid of she refused. The main excuse used was the item held some sort of sentimental value. Then Harm had found an ancient pack of gum. He'd asked why she had it. She said that when she was in law school she used to get really nervous whenever preparing for a case. She always chewed gum to help her nerves. That was the pack she'd had the day she won her first case. Harm had just given her this look like 'You have to be kidding me?' But she still refused to throw it out.
Mac laughed at his choice of words. She too remembered the weekend she'd shanghaied him into cleaning with her. Men just didn't get it. Some things you just couldn't part with.
They reached Harm's apartment and he ran inside while Mac waited in the car. He grabbed some uniforms, his briefcase and some toiletry items. Anything else he could worry about at a later date. He ran back down to the car and now had the dilemma of figuring out where this stuff was going to go. The SUV was already packed with all the stuff they had brought back with them. He could have just shoved the stuff in the trunk but he didn't want he uniforms to get wrinkled. Finally after moving some stuff around he found room.
Once they got to Mac's apartment, Harm suggested instead of killing themselves by bringing as many bags up as they could at once, they should just go slow, the stuff wasn't going anywhere.
They got off the elevator and headed to Mac's apartment. Mac was digging in her purse for her keys. Of course they always seemed to be the last thing in the bottom of the bag. As soon as she put her key in the lock, Harm grabbed her from behind and picked her up.
Mac squealed.
"Squid what do you think you're doing?" Mac said laughing at his antics.
"I'm carrying you over the threshold of course."
Harm carried her inside and spun her around. He was never happier. He put her down and looked into her eyes.
"I love you," he said.
"I love you too," she said as she brought his head down for a kiss.
Clayton Webb had just returned to D.C. He had just gotten home when he remembered a phone call he had forgotten to make.
"Hello," Admiral AJ Chegwidden said as he answered his phone.
"AJ its Webb. The assignment was a success," and with that Webb hung up the phone.
AJ smiled. 'It's about damn time.'
Harm awoke to the buzzing of the alarm clock. Although it was Saturday they still had to go to work to brief the Admiral on what had happened the past week.
"Mac honey, it's t time to get up," Harm said.
"Mmm need sleep," Mac said as she rolled over turning her back to him.
"But we need to meet with the Admiral remember?"
Mac didn't answer.
"If you don't get up now you're gonna be late." This got Mac's attention.
She sat up in bed.
"I'm never late Squid!" she said sleepily.
Harm just laughed.
They made it to JAG HQ by 0800.
"Admiral," they both said as the came to attention in front of his desk.
"At ease. Have a seat."
Harm and Mac sat down.
"Good work people. From Webb has told me so far you both did an excellent job."
Harm and Mac spent the next twenty minutes detailing the investigation.
"You did a fine job. That will be all. See you both Monday morning."
Just as Harm and Mac were about to exit their CO's office he called them back.
"Oh Colonel Commander. I forgot. Congratulations," AJ tried not to smile at their shocked expressions. Harm and Mac had decided they would figure out how they were going to tell everyone that they were married. How did the Admiral already know?
"That'll be all," Harm and Mac still stood there wondering how he knew.
"I said dismissed."
"Aye, aye sir," Harm said as they saluted and left his office.
