Episode 3
Hide and Seek
Chapter 5
Harm paid little if any attention to the posted speed limit 98 MPH was hardly in the neighborhood of 55 MPH, but he didn't care it was urgent that Harm got to JAG, he need that portfolio, and he needed to find who Lt. Jenkins source was.
*Two hours earlier*
Harriet Sims finished organizing all the files, she was about to go home for the night when Lt. Singer approached her a smirk on her face.
"Lieutenant the admiral would like to see you." She informed. Harriet eyed the lieutenant as she left her seat and made her way to the admiral's office. Singer quickly yet nochalanty slipped behind Lt. Sims desk she casually flipped through the files, when her fingers landed on the file labeled "State vs. Lt. Jenkins". Casually removing the file she slipped it into her briefcase, and made her way out the door.
*Back to present*
Mac finally emerged from the bedroom, she walked into the kitchen where the admiral stood hovering over the stove, stirring a pot of what smelled like pasta.
"Has Harm called?" The admiral looked up a bit startled, yet relieved to see Mac out and about.
"Not yet." Mac nodded as she settled down into a kitchen chair. The twins gave another hard kick, Mac shifted in her seat, and she grew hungrier by the minute.
"I can't wait for this lil' marine and sailor to be born." She said, making an attempt of small talk, at the same time trying to cover up the silence. The admiral chuckled.
"Looking forward to those sleepless nights?" It was Mac's turn to laugh.
"They've already been keeping me up, it's Harm's turn after they're born." At that moment the phone rang, both the admiral's and Mac's glance drifted toward the phone. It rang twice before the admiral made the move to answer it.
"Admiral Chegwidden." He answered.
"Admiral, its Commander Rabb."
"Everything alright Rabb?" The admiral asked, Mac perked up at the mention of Harm's name, as the admiral turned to look at her.
"Do you by any chance have Lt. Jenkins file?" Harm asked.
"No I don't why."
"It's missing, and no one knows where it is…"
OOOO….Could Singer be Jenkins "source", or just her usually self? I admit I'm not a lawyer, so I don't know the whole legal jargon spill (future warning) I also know it's probably not my best chapter, and I'm well aware the characters are out of character, I'm just runnin' on zero sleep here. I promise better chapters to come. Keep the reviews comin' and please no flames.
