Mac's Office
'Okay, Mac, you have to make it through this day. Afterwards you can just go home and go to bed. This will all be gone tomorrow.' Mac told herself. She was leaning over a trashcan on her floor. Not the most woman like place to be but she didn't care.
A knock sounded at the door. She quickly got up, with a groan, and sat at her desk.
"Enter!" She said while trying to sound okay.
Harriet walked in as happy as could be. "So ma'am you are coming tonight right? I mean I know I didn't say RSVP cause, well, I just assumed you were coming. So are you?"
'Oh man, I know Harriet has put a lot of work into this party. I mean I know it's just another chance to try and get me and Harm together but still, I would feel so horrible if I didn't go. But I feel horrible now as it is.' Mac thought.
"Of course Harriet I will be there and..." Mac tried to finish the sentence but was cut off with having to run for the trashcan to vomit.
Harriet was at her side in no time. She held back her hair and called for Tiner to get a cold towel.
"Oh ma'am, I won't let you come. You have a fever and are vomiting. Have you seen someone yet?" Harriet asked concerned.
"No, no, no I am fine Harriet. It is probably food poisoning or something. I will be fine. And I will be there tonight don't you worry." Mac said.
Just then Tiner came in with the towel. "Here you go ma'am. Um…may I speak freely?"
"Sure Tiner what is it?" Mac asked.
"You look horrible." Tiner blurted out.
"Thanks Tiner, you're dismissed." Mac said. She knew Tiner was trying to be nice but she wasn't in the mood.
"Okay ma'am I am going to go back to work. If you need me just call okay?" Harriet asked.
"Okay Harriet, but I am fine really." Mac said while Harriet left.
The minute Harriet left, Mac was back on the floor. She had been pushing it down so Harriet would stop making a big deal about it.
About 30 minutes later Mac was back to normal. She was fine and was actually drinking water.
A knock at her door brought her out of her paperwork.
"Enter" Mac said.
"Hey there sicky." Harm said while taking a seat.
"Does everyone know?" Mac asked.
"Oh yeah, everyone knows that the big ole' bad Marine can't hold her grub down." Harm said while laughing. He was having so much fun with this.
"You know what why don't you come closer so if this thing is contagious you can have it!" Mac said. She wasn't joking either.
'Just like a man' Mac thought 'they think of no one but themselves. You would think he would at least ask how I am doing!'
Harm was about to say something but Mac dashed out of the room and headed for the woman's bathroom. She threw her trashcan in the dumpster outside cause it was causing a horrible smell.
And of course he followed after her…all the way into the bathroom.
Mac didn't really close the latch on the door and Harm was right there kneeling with her holding her hand.
'Maybe he can be a gentleman' Mac thought while she was puking out her brains.
She didn't even think she could puke after this long. She hadn't eaten anything all she had drank was water and she had already puked that up. Wonders cease to amaze…
After Mac was finished she sat there for a minute then leaned her head on Harm shoulder.
"You okay there?" He asked
"Yeah, peachy!" She said with a slight smile.
She was vaguely aware of Harm hand on her back running in smoothing circles. It was very nice. 'I could get used to this' she thought 'the hand on my back-not the vomiting.'
"You know you're in the ladies restroom?" Mac asked after a little while.
"I've been worse places with someone throwing up." Harm said.
"I don't want to know." Mac said as she was getting up to leave.
A/N~ Okay, I am so sorry this has taken so long. I have actually been sick myself. I was vomiting and had a fever, I was dizzy, and oh so more. Now the only thing is my voice is like a man! But that's okay…
