Present
"I drove the rest of the way home thinking about how lucky I was to have such a great friend."
"Harm thought very highly of you too, Mac." Trish began.
"I don't know, Trish." Mac interrupted.
"Well I do. When Harm would call you were all he talked about. Sure he'd say that his current girlfriend was fine, but he would say you were fine and go into details." Trish laughed.
"Mac did you tell them the baseball story?" Admiral Chegwidden asked walking over to the small group with a cup of coffee.
"Not yet. I just finished the Christmas story." Mac told. "Would you like to tell it? You could probably tell it better than me since I was kind of upset that day." Mac laughed.
"You should've been there Trish." The Admiral began. "It was Saturday and we were going to play out weekly game of baseball. This week we were going to play a few judges, lawyers, and clerks from the city. Harm and Mac arrived together as usual and we began to play. We were playing great. The best we ever played, until the 7th inning."
Baseball field
6 months ago
Harm the team's pitcher stood on the mound. Harm had been pitching the entire game and was the main reason the other team was only two to their six runs. A local lawyer was on second base and other than that the bases were empty. One of DC's new judges was up to bat.
"Come on Harm. Easy out!" Mac yelled from behind home plate.
Harm threw the ball and you could hear the crack of the bat as it made contact with the ball. All members of the team watched as the ball sailed over the wall. Harm let out a sigh of relief that the ball went foul.
The umpire threw Harm another ball and the game resumed. Gunny, who was playing first base, motioned with his hand for all the outfielders to move further back. When Harm saw all the outfielders where back enough he threw it wild and it was called as a ball. Mac gave Harm an angry look and threw him the baseball. The next pitch was called strike, but the next three were balls and the new judge took his place on first as the player moved from second to third.
Harm made circles with his shoulders trying to loosen them up hoping it would help his pitching.
"Time!" Mac yelled and ran up to Harm before the ump had time to call it.
"What the hell was that?" Mac yelled at Harm who had his back to her talking with Sturgis the second baseman.
Harm turned around and nearly collided with Mac, she was standing so close.
"Excuse me?"
"You heard me! What is that you're doing? I want to know because it surely isn't pitching." Mac yelled back.
"You try pitching this entire game with a bad shoulder." Harm yelled louder than he ever had before.
"What are you talking about? Your hurt shoulder. You poor baby..." Mac started to rattle off. With both teams watching them fight Harm did the only thing he could think of to get her to shut up, he kissed her.
Mac was yelling with no end in sight. Harm looked around at all of his friends, collages, and the other team on the field wanting to continue with the game, so he did the first thing that popped into his mind. He lowered his lips to hers and forced her to shut up. Harm expected Mac to do anything, but what she did. He thought she'd slap him, bite his tongue, or kill him, but he never expected her to return the kiss. As soon as Harm's mouth touched Mac's he forgot all about their friends and collages watching and the game. The only thing on Harm's mind was how right and good it felt to have Mac's lips pressed against his.
Mac's mind on the other hand was racing. Never in a million years did she think that her handsome partner and friend would be in a serious lip lock. Her mind was filled with all the possible things that could result from this kiss. The Admiral could reprimand them, their careers would be over, he could finally realize that she loves him and they would start a relationship or he finally realizes that she loves him and their friendship would be ruined. When Harm took her in his arms not breaking the kiss, all those thoughts flew out of her mind and the only thing on her mind was "WOW he can really kiss". They were so wrapped up in their kiss that they never noticed the Admiral coming up behind them.
The sound of someone clearing their throat broke them apart. They broke apart and spun around and came face to face with the Admiral
"Do you want to tell me what the hell is going on?" The Admiral yelled spitting in their faces a bit.
"Sir nothing's going on. Mac...that is Col. Mackenzie and I..." Harm started to explain before the Admiral cut him off.
"That sure looked like a whole lot of something. Now what was that?"
"A kiss." Mac stated embarrassed.
"I know that. I mean why was my best team locked in an embrace in the middle of the field?"
"Sir Col. Mackenzie apparently doesn't like how I'm playing the game and brought it to my attention."
"And how did that led to what just went on here?"
"Well sir the conversation got a little heated and I wanted Col. Mackenzie to shut up so we could play the game, but she wouldn't. The only way I saw to get Col. Mackenzie to shut up was by forcing her. See by kissing her I restrained her lips from moving in turn not being able to speak." Harm finished.
"Well from where I was sitting that didn't look like you trying stop Col. Mackenzie from just speaking."
"Sir I assure you that nothing is going on between Col. Mackenzie and I and there are no locked up feelings."
Mac's heart broke at that moment and the Admiral was forced to hide a smile. It looked like he was the only one who realized that Harm just confessed his feelings out loud in a cryptic message.
Present
"We actually won that game, but I'll never forget when Harm took Mac and planted that kiss on her lips. Needless to say we all weren't as surprised as they were. I think everybody in the department had been waiting for that kiss to happen for years. I personally expected more to happen than what did, but nothing happened. The next day Harm and Mac came into work like nothing every happed. Surprised the heck out of me."
Everybody was laughing except Mac. All she was doing was trying to hide her face. She couldn't believe that Harm kissed her when and like he did. She had waited so long to express her feelings for Harm and thought that was the perfect time, but when she heard and saw that he didn't feel the Mace way she pretended like nothing happened. The only thing was that she didn't realize how wrong she was about Harm's feelings.
"Mac, honey, Frank and I are going to head back to the hotel now. You'll be at Harm's in the morning won't you?" Trish asked Mac bringing her out of her thoughts about the kiss.
Mac looked around and noticed that most of the people had left. The only one's remaining were the Admiral, Frank, Trish, the Roberts family, and herself.
"Be at Harm's? What for?" Mac asked confused.
"Well Frank and I were going to go over there and start going through his things and thought that since you were his best friend that you should be there too. We actually invited AJ, the Roberts, Mr. Webb, and Sturgis. You should be there too. It would really mean a lot to us."
"I'll be there Mrs. Burnette." Mac said. "Wow look at the time I better get going. What time should I be at Harm's?"
"How about 1:00?"
"I'll be there." Mac confirmed before leaving Admiral Chegwidden's home and going back to her own home for another night of restless sleep.
