Chapter 6
Mac's Apartment
Harm swallows nervously and slightly nods in the affirmitive. Mac just stares at him, not sure what to do or say..trying to think of something that won't bring the conversation to a screeching halt. They hold each others gaze, unable to look away when Harm feels himself leaning in. Mac sees this and her breath catches in her throat, her heartbeat feeling as if it will beat out of her chest as she too leans in.
They are so close, Mac can feel his breath on her face when.. the phone rings. They are both broken out of the spell they've been under, and both sit back a little and stare at the other, wondering about what had almost happened between them.
Harm is first to find his voice. "You.uh.you better get that."
"Yeah..." Mac curses her luck as she reaches for the phone on the coffee table. By then, the answering machine has already picked up.
"You've reached the machine of Colonel Sarah Mackenzie, leave me a message. BEEP!...
Mac decides to just let the machine get it...
"Hey Sarah.it's Clay. I'm in town for this week, and I was wanting to see you. I miss you. Well, just give me a call. I'll talk to you later beautiful, bye" *click*
Mac groans and wonders how this could be any worse.she sits back down on the couch with a sigh, her eyes briefly shifting to Harm's.
Harm clears his throat, upset at being reminded of her and Clay's relationship. "So..how IS Clay?" "Fine, I guess.he's been out of the country a lot lately.We haven't had a real chance to talk.It's really not work-" Mac says softly."
"Trouble in paradise?" Harm asks bitterly, cutting her off.
"Harm.grow up." Mac says angrily, surprising even herself. " You know, I keep thinking that one of these days you'll get your head out of your six and start acting your age and not your shoe size.You just don't get it do you, did you hear me out at all last night??? You know what, forget it.I was right.this will never work and we are being foolish in letting ourselves believe otherwise."
The End for now...
A/N-well, they're back to "hating" each other, this should be an interesting sea hawk adventure. Please Review!
