The Ways I Can Tell
(Harm's POV)
I can tell she loves me by…
When we first got together she insisted on having her side of the bed. The right side of the bed, she can't fall asleep unless she is on her side, so she says.
Yeah right! When I come home after being out on a carrier, or hell even just to Norfolk for a weekend I come in late at night and see her curled up with a pillow on the left side of the bed. Sleeping happily might I add!
At work when someone asks if she would like coffee she politely declines and gets some herself. She goes on with 'Navy boys don't know how to make Marine coffee!' and all her yadda yadda yadda…
But when I get her coffee she says thank you, takes the cup, and is done within 2 minutes. 'Navy boys can't make coffee my ass…'
I have a picture of her on my desk. I told her once she should put one of me on her desk. She didn't like the idea, she said it would be a distraction and then people would for sure know that we are together. (Okay so everyone knows we are together)
Two weeks later I see her take a frame out of her briefcase and but it on her desk, right in front of her. I happen to see who is in the frame, and of course, it is non other than yours truly!
Or like the time I told she should change her Voice Mail message from 'Colonel McKenzie' to something sweet like 'Hi, sorry I missed you, just leave your name, number and a nice message and I will get back to you ASAP. And have a nice day' she looks at me like I am a complete idiot.
But what do you know she changes her voice mail the next day with the exact words!
That is how I know she loves me. I mean of course she says that she loves me all the time. But as the saying goes "Actions Speak Louder than Words!"
