A/N: I don't own the movie characters!
What Am I Doing?
Maureen walked down the road framing a nice sunset along the way. She looked confident in the green dress she was wearing and all the looks she was receiving from men were a bit uplifting, but inside her head was sreaming. "Why am I doing this?", "Are you crazy!" and "Just stop and turn back now" were popping up in her head. Maureen was very nervous. She felt like her heart would just spring out of her chest, the nervousness was getting to her. 'Maureen,' she thought 'get yourself together, this is nothing big, this is nothing at all.' Maureen stopped and looked up. 'Here goes,' she thought as she walked into the air base.
Maureen gathered up her courage and walked towards the man in uniform that was guarding the base. "Excuse me sir, I am looking for Rafe McCawley, could you tell me where I could find him?"
The officer gave her the once over and decided that she did not look like a threat. "He is in his office at this point. When you see the officers bar straight ahead take a left, just look at the signs and you will find his office."
"Thank you very much, sir," Maureen said as he walked on by. 'Well, you have gone this far, no use turning back now,' her head said logically.
Maureen found the place that she was looking for and without thought she lifted her hand and knocked on the door. 'What is taking this man so long?', she thought. '
A muffled 'one minute!' came from the door. 'This is your last chance Maureen, it doesn't take much, just one foot in front of the other. After one minute of waiting the door was unlocked and a hard, disagreeable 'come in' was to be heard.
Rafe not even looking up from his papers said "what did you do? And who sent you here." Maureen was too uncomfortable to say anything. "Speak up soldier, I don't have all day and I doubt you don't either," he continued .
Maureen couldn't resist this chance, putting on her best deep masculine voice and a salute "Sorry sir, too busy admiring your good looks."
Rafe's eyes snapped open after that comment. When he heard laughter he finally looked up. "Are you here to confuse me and make my life hell?" he asked with a smirk on his face.
Maureen laughingly sat down on the edge of his desk and looked at him with a smile and an evil sparkle in her eyes. "Sorry, I just had to say it, it was too easy, and come on you know that you would have done something similar if you were in my shoes," and with that Maureen shot Rafe a smile between innocence and michief, and of course, Rafe was captivated.
"I may have." Maureen gave him a look, "alright, I robably would have done something along those lines once upon a time."
Maureen gave him an odd expression. "You know what you need to have fun, you are acting like an old man you are. You need to get out and taste your still young self!"
"And what do you ma'am suggest?" Rafe said mockingly.
"Hmmmmmm. how about if we get into some old time trouble?" she glanced to see his surprised expression. "Okay, not trouble, fun. Does fun work for you, or does Mr. Army not remember how that works?" Maureen was having a good time, 'damn he looks good when he's bantering back and forth,' she thought.
Rafe looked at the redhead and started to laugh. She was the kind of medicine he needed. "Alright, I'll grab my jacket and we will be on our way." He turned around and grabbed his jacket from the back of his chair, put it on and he turned to leave.
"So you are going out as Joe Army tonight, not some regular guy? Well, that's fine with me, do we get special privilliges with the jackey?" Rafe shot her a look, "Alright, alright! I was just joking! Are all the guys in this outfit like you? No, alright lets go," and with that Maureen turned towards the door.
Rafe followed her outside and locked his office behind him. As he looked at Maureen with the sunset behind her he knew she owned him, but acting manly he shrugged it off. "So," he started as they began to walk out of the base, receiving saluts from random men, "where are we going exactly, if you don't mind my asking?"
"Ah ha! That is a surprise, sir! You will just have to wait and see," she said with a smirk and a mischievious glint in her eyes.
Rafe started to look worried, "what are we doing exactly? Nothing illegal right?"
"Yes, of course it is illegal! I mean how do you expect to have fun without being arrested? Being locked up ends a night perfecly!"
Rafe shot her a worried look, "Are you serious?"
"Yes of course," she paused for dramatic affect, "I am kidding! Relax there buddy. We are going to have some legal fun, no being arrested, just clean fun."
"Alright, I am less worried now. Sorry I just went into army mode there. I have this thing now about breaking rules, I try not to break them anyways."
"Were you always agaist rule breaking? Or is this something new for you?" she questioned him.
"Actually this is kind of new, I used to be a pro at breaking the rules. I was mostly in the air whether it be borrowing my father's crop duster for a while while he was sleeping, Danny helped with that one, or being at the old base playing chicken in the planes with Danny."Rafe stopped right there.
"Danny was a good friend huh?" Maureen asked him softly.
"How about we get going I really don't want to talk about this."
"Alright lets go."
And with that the two left the base and went to go find Maureen's Place.
