In the end it was Harm who made the first move.
"Do you still feel that way Sarah..."
What's Meant To Be Will Be 2
The sound of her given name coming from his lips sent shivers throughout her body.
"Do you Harm?"
"Yes I do, but if you don't then I don't want to risk what we have know, I can live without being with you Sarah, but I don't think I could handle you not being in my life at all."
I can see her eyes glistening with unshed tears. Fear rises in my throat as I realise I have made a mistake. She doesn't want me, she's moved on and I'm still stuck as usual in the same part of my life, unable to let go.
"Mac, I..."
"Harm if you really meant what you said before, then yes I do still want there to be an 'us' if you can handle that."
A wave of relief washed over him as those words sunk into the depths of his heart. She wanted him. They were finally on the same page. The dance had finished and now they could both move on.
"I meant every word of what I said Mac and I mean this. I love you Sarah MacKenzie and I never want to lose you again."
"I love you to Harm."
She leaned across and kissed him lightly, the kissed deepened as years of dancing around each other, years of unrequited feelings were released in one burst of passion. At that moment they both knew that nothing could come between them again.
As they headed toward the bedroom Mac whispered in his ear "You never lost me Harm, and you never will."
Those simple words washed over him letting him know that this was meant to be, it was right and she wanted it just as much as he did.
HARM'S APARTMENT Next Morning
After a night of making love to the most amazing woman he had ever met, Harm lay awake admiring the beautiful creature before him. She was perfect there was no other word for it.
Mac stirred next to him, waking to find him starring at her with a strange look in his eyes, a look filled with so much love and emotion she had to mentally shake herself to make sure it wasn't a dream. It wasn't.
"Morning gorgeous"
"Hmmm morning, do I smell coffee?"
"Yeah I got up earlier and put it on, you want some"
"Mmmm that would be great."
"Okay, be right back."
Mac rolled over once Harm was gone and smiled into the pillow, how had they managed to get to this point in one night? Things had gone so smoothly once they opened up, " It's amazing what a little communication does."
"What was that," Harm says handing her a cup of steaming hot coffee.
"Thanks, nothing I was just thinking out loud. I said it's amazing what a little communication does."
"I know I was thinking the same thing. Are you still okay about last night?" The tone of his voice betrayed his real feelings, he was scared that she regretted their night together.
"More than okay flyboy, so what do you say we do something today"
"Got any suggestions?"
"Nope, you can choose, after all you let me pick the movies last night."
"Well that's true, what do you say about going up in 'Sarah' and then a picnic in a nice secluded spot."
"I say what are we still doing here!"
They spent the rest of the weekend together, Saturday was spent flying in 'Sarah' and the Sunday was spent lounging around Harms apartment, making the odd trip to the store for food.
Later Sunday night Mac began to feel uneasy, the question had been tugging at the back of her brain all weekend but she hadn't wanted to face it until now.
"Harm, what about Renee?"
The simply statement shocked him. He had completely forgot that his 'girlfriend' was out of town and arriving home in 4 days. "I'll talk to her when she gets back, tell her it's over."
"Will you tell her about us?"
"I don't know, do you want me too?"
"Can I think about that one, I'm not sure she'll give you up that easily and if she knows there is another woman involved."
"Point taken but I'll do whatever you want to do."
"Harm can I ask you another question?"
"Sure, fire away."
"If nothing had have happened between us, would you have stayed with Renee for much longer?"
"Honestly I don't know, I had been thinking about her and I a lot lately and if we should have still been together considering how I felt about you, but no I can't honestly answer that, however I can tell you that there is no one I want to be with other than you now."
With that he dropped a light kiss on her forehead and walked into the kitchen "So what do you want for dinner?"

"Harm, are we going to tell the Admiral about our change in.. ahhh relationship."
"Yeah how about we leave it until tomorrow though, I have a lot on my plate today and I have a feeling that this particular conversation will take a while."
"Sounds good to me I'm not exactly in any hurry to tell him either."
They walk together towards the front of the Jag building, once in the elevator alone Harm dropped a light kiss on Mac's lips just as the door opened he said, "Have a good day Colonel."
"You too Commander." Smiling a little to broadly.

"Good morning Commander"
"Morning Harriet. How was your weekend?"
"Tiring sir, AJ has decided that it's funny to wake Mummy and Daddy up at 5:30 in the morning just to get a reaction."
"Charming little squid isn't he."
"Yes I'm sure his is sir"
Chuckling Harm asks, "Do I have any messages Lieutenant"
"No sir, but you do have a visitor waiting in you office."
"Okay thank you Harriet"
Harm walked towards his office with a spring in his step, how couldn't believe that things had finally fallen into place for him and Mac.
As he opened the door to his office he gasped as it revealed who his visitor was.
