"Shush Jenny let Mommy sleep." Harm got up and crossed the room to the pram
and plucked Jenny out and into his arms. "Let me guess you're hungry. Let's
go and get you your bottle shall we?"
He carried her into the kitchen and sang to calm her while he warmed her bottle.
~Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white
Clean and bright
You look happy to meet me
Blossom of snow
May you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever
Edelweiss, Edelweiss,
Bless my homeland forever~
"Since when did your apartment get invaded with the Von Trapp family?" Mac asked as she sleepily joined them.
"I couldn't think of anything else at the time and I thought you might want to sleep for a bit longer."
"I'll give her her bottle, you should go back to bed you have to be at JAG in three and twenty three minutes."
"I'll stay up. Shush honey." Mac took the bottle and tested it on her wrist and handed it to Harm.
"I'm sorry I hit you."
"I probably deserved it. You certainly pack a punch Marine."
"Maternal instinct and Marine training are a deadly combination."
"Tell me about it. Did you mean what you said last night about getting a place together?" Harm asked.
"I think so. I mean you're always at my apartment and I know you hate going home at night, this way you get to be around all the time and I don't have to worry about you taking off with Jenny. Besides Jenny needs both of us. So I'm open to the idea. What about you?"
"I wouldn't have suggested it before if I didn't think it was a good idea."
"We'd have to work out the logistics with the Admiral. I don't see why he should have a problem with it in principle." Mac yawned.
"Go back to bed. I'll stay up with Jenny we can talk about details later."
"Thank you. Be good sweetheart." Mac kissed Jenny's forehead. "And Harm you can sing her anything you like apart from military songs, anything about submarines, boats, planes or anything from musicals."
"Yes ma'am. Are you going to draw up a list that meets your high standards?" He teased.
"That was the list I can write you a more detailed one if you like?" She offered yawning again. "I'm going back to bed."
"Sweet dreams." Harm called. Mac curled up in the bed and listened as Harm sang.
~It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."
We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."
I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.
It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."~
He carried her into the kitchen and sang to calm her while he warmed her bottle.
