"So how was therapy?" Harm asked as Mac sat on the couch after she got
home.
"Interesting. I've got another appointment on Monday." She said as she kicked her shoes off.
"So any startling revelations?" He asked as he sat down and turned her so her feet were on his lap and he began rubbing her feet.
"Not really, we basically talked about us."
"So did you tell her how devastatingly handsome I look in my dress uniform?" He teased.
"I think I managed to leave that out. However she does think jumping out of a plane to propose is very romantic."
"See, I told it was."
"But you'd be no good to me if the shoot didn't open." Mac shuffled closer until she was almost sitting on his lap.
"Why do you have plans for me?" Mac didn't say anything she just let forward and kissed him. "I'll take that as a yes." He said against her lips.
"I would." She mumbled.

Sunday 0537
"This is definitely a good way to wake up." Mac said as cuddled into Harm's arms and he pressed kisses into the back of her neck. "As much as I'd like to stay like this I'd better go and check on Jenny." She mumbled.
"She'll let us know when she's awake." Harm managed in between kissing across the back of her shoulders. Mac rolled over and pressed her lips against his.
"I'll be back in a minute I promise." She said as she rolled out of bed and picked up his shirt off the floor and slipped it on a did a few of the buttons up.
"You know you look good enough to eat." Harm said watching her.
"And I thought you said I was the one who was always hungry. I'll be back." She padded her way across the hall to Jenny's room and looked over the crib at her sleeping daughter. Mac reached out her hand and touched her forehead to check her temperature, the way she had been doing constantly since she had come home from the hospital. She stood watching her breath in and out.
"She's fine." Harm said slipping his arms around her waist and kissing the back of her neck.
"I know. I don't know what I'd do if anything happened to her."
"I know me too, but that's why you have to tell me when things happen so I can be here to protect you both." He hugged her tighter.
"But what if you can't?" Mac mumbled.
"What was that?" Harm asked.
"I said what if you can't. We can't watch her every second of everyday, things happen that are beyond your or my control. If the world went to war tomorrow, you'd be gone to fly your planes and although I wouldn't be on the front line they'd expect me to do my job what happens then?"
"You can't think like that. What if's never make anyone feel better, you have to live for now. Life is too short, all that matters is I love you and I love Jenny and nothing is ever going to change that. We can't worry about things that may never happen we just have to concentrate on being a family."
"I love you too you know." Mac managed to say.
"I know. Let's go back to bed, before she wakes up and decides it's time for breakfast."
"Interesting. I've got another appointment on Monday." She said as she kicked her shoes off.
