Title: The Art of Seduction 1/?

Rating: PG-13 to R or maybe even higher later!

Summary: Trish has joined forces with Mac to get Mac and Harm together.

Disclaimer: I don't own the JAG characters. They belong to DPB and CBS. I do kind of own the artist who's having the show. (I combined the names of two of my relatives)

A/N if you haven't read "The Male of the Species," Conversing with a Brick Wall" and "Never get a Man to do a Woman's Job" This probably won't make a whole heck of a lot of sense.

A/N 2: The first 3 chapters or so of this are going to be before the gallery show from Trish's POV, Mac's POV and Harm's POV. After that it'll all be from either Harm or Mac's POV.

Friday Morning Trish Burnett's Kitchen

My son arrived last night for a visit. I guilt tripped him into coming out to see me for a long weekend. I also got him to agree to attend the gallery opening for Kelsay Spencer. Harm and Kelsay when to high school together so it seemed the perfect cover for what I was planning.

Harm was convinced that I was trying to fix him up with Kelsay. We actually had a long discussion last night where he made me promise that wasn't what I was trying to do. I think I shocked him when I made the promise so easily. He could sense that I wasn't lying. Which of course I wasn't. I am trying to fix him up, just not with Kelsay. I'm trying to fix him up with Lieutenant Colonel Sarah MacKenzie, his Mac.

A couple of weeks ago I flew to D.C. to see Harm and talk to him about his life. I got him to admit he loves Mac but he told me Mac doesn't feel the same way. I was positive she did so I found a way to meet her. I come to find out she loves him but doesn't think he feels that way about her. So, after a long talk, we hatched a plot where I would get Harm to come visit and she would fly out the next day and surprise him at the gallery show. The plan being to get the two of them together in a relaxed, romantic setting and for her to seduce him. We know he loves her we just need to get him to admit it.

Mac should be on the plane flying here right now. Once she gets here she'll got to her hotel to check in and then I'm supposed to meet her later at my favorite day spa. We're going to spend the day being pampered. I planned this more to keep Mac relaxed then anything else. I would imagine the closer the plane gets to San Diego the more nervous she becomes. We'll then go our separate ways. She'll go back to the hotel to get ready and I'll go home. Harm, Frank, and I are supposed to be at the gallery at six, Mac is going to arrive at 7. With any luck Harm and Mac will leave with an hour to go back to her hotel for dinner. I've arranged for room service to deliver dinner to her room at 8.

Here comes Harm back from his run. I guess I'd better get started on fixing some breakfast. I don't want Harm to suspect I've got anything up my sleeve. He'd expect me to have breakfast with him and spend some time with him if I wasn't going to be home all day.

next chapter will be Mac's thoughts on the plane
