Beltway
'I wonder if Harm will be ready on time?' Mac muses to herself as she approaches the exit of the beltway. Turning smoothly into Harm's street, she approaches the car park with mixed feelings of nervousness and excitement. Parking her car in the first available spot, she steps out into the warm breeze and looks up towards Harm's apartment. Taking the elevator she rides up to Harm's apartment and knocks on his apartment door once, twice, three times but no one answers. She knocks another 3 times but still she receives no answer. Deciding to investigate, she gets her spare key out, the one that Harm gave to her in case of an emergency and unlocks the door. Stepping inside of his familiar apartment, Mac notices the unusual silence of the spacious apartment. 'He might be in the shower and that would explain why he didn't hear me knocking.' Mac thinks to herself. Walking cautiously to his bedroom, she peers around the corner of his door expecting to see a clad toweled Harm instead she is faced with the peaceful sight of her sailor still asleep. 'That would be right. I bust my six to get here early so that we have plenty of time to get to the golf course and here he is still asleep. Mmm what should I do? I could do the Marine Drill and shout at him to get up, the whisper in the ear method or finally the water method where I pour a glass of icy cold water on him. Hmm hard choice. Maybe I could do method one and three and really get him up?' Mac sniffles back a giggle at the thought of Harm jumping chaotically out of bed in fright. 'It would teach him though.' Deciding on the marine drill method, Mac stands quietly a fair distance away from his bed and bellows in a loud clear voice "Commander get your six out of bed before I do it for you." With a jolt, Harm scrambles up from the mass of sheets and stands blurry eyed at attention in front of one satisfied marine colonel. Coming to his senses, he notices his surroundings and who is in front of him.
"Mac?" he asks dubiously.
"No Sherlock Homles smart guy."
"What are you doing here?" he asks with profound confusion evident in his voice.
"It's Saturday Harm!" Mac exclaims like it's the most obvious thing in the world.
"I know that!" Harm says still not catching on.
"Saturday.. 6:10am.. Me pick you up.. Ring any bells yet?"
"Saturday, 6:10am,Mac pick me up." Harm says trying to remember what exactly were his plans for today.
"Anything?" Mac asks impatiently as Harm stands in his boxes trying to process what Mac has just told him.
"Damn it!" Harm finally proclaims to a relived Mac.
"Well hurry up we only have 11 minutes and 34 seconds to get there and you haven't even had a shower yet. Roughly estimating that gives you about 3 minutes to get ready and about 7 minutes to drive there. Now scoot!"
Harm runs to the bathroom slams the door and hops quickly into the shower all the while muttering to himself about the embarrassment he will receive from his colleagues and friends. 'Just great! Mac is going to tell this whole story to everyone who will listen and she's going to milk until the cow has run out. Damn it Rabb. Why couldn't you just for once have been early for a change and then you wouldn't be in this compromising situation. Mac is going to; damn I don't want to know what she's going to do. Why am I even thinking about it? ERRR. Hearing Mac's voice but not able to hear what she said because of the running water, Harm yells in frustration "WHAT?" Hearing his tone Mac sarcastically yells back "Whoa I guess I hit a cord. A wrong cord." Referring to her internal clock, Mac notices that Harm's time is up and starts to yell but decides against it, as he wouldn't be able to hear her properly. Waiting another minute, her patience runs thin and she yells out to Harm to hurry up. Not taking in a word Mac has just said, Harm continues his shower while thoughts roam through his head. Waiting another full minute and still no Harm, Mac decides on the easiest solution to get Harm out and about. 'Ok Marine you can do this.' Mac preps herself. Grasping the bathroom door handle she slowly turns the knob all the while thinking 'I hope Harm has hot showers so that the shower is fogged up and therefore I don't see anything I shouldn't see.' While these thoughts are crossing her mind, her inner self argues with her that she really doesn't want the room to be fogged up and that she would love to see the anatomy of her partner. 'Ohh shut up you don't know anything about me.' Mac yells subconsciously. Returning her thoughts to the door in front of her she twists the knob to it's full extent and slowly with ease opens the door to a fogged up room with her partner still humming and haring in the shower. 'Damn it! I forgot that he had a shower curtain' *What did I tell you? Her inner self argues its point to her.* 'Ohh just leave me alone.' Still standing quietly and obviously not noticed by Harm of yet, Mac stands listening to himself mutter about bits and pieces.
"I'm a dead man by the time she's through with telling everyone about the bedroom incident. Thank god she doesn't have me on anything else embarrassing" Harm says to himself.
Hearing Harm's conversation with himself, she laughs inwardly and decides to make it a bit more interesting.
"Are you sure about that flyboy?" Mac says smugly with a smirk across her face.
Startled at how close and loud the voice is to him, Mac hears Harm scrambling for a towel but not having one in sight he settles for the shower curtain. After a couple of deeps breaths on both parts, Harm peeps his head around the shower curtain and sees a smug looking marine staring back at him with merriment in her eyes.
"Mac I know that as partners at JAG we have a personal relationship but I didn't think that you wanted to get this personal with me!" Harm teases Mac who just looks on with a you keep dreaming look written on her face.
"Very funny Harm. Now hurry up ok! It's 27 past already."
Moving away from the shower Mac turns has one more look and then exits the bathroom with a happy expression on her facial features. Several minutes later Harm emerges from his bedroom dressed and ready to go.
"Ready Mac" Harm teases Mac.
"Ready?" Mac asks in annoyance and disbelief.
"Yeah."
"Well I know I'm ready but are you really ready to take on me Harm?"
"Have I ever been known not to? Harm asks back
"Nope." They both reply unison
The End of Chapter 2.
What will happen when they get there?
What will Mac say and How far will Harm go to try and get Mac to keep silent?
