Same Day

The rest of Mac's day had been a long one. The Admiral incident, Harm's teasing about it and just Harm in general and her semi erotic thoughts of him. She had also found she had huge run in her pantyhose and had been in court the entire afternoon without knowing it was there. So that was what Harm was stifling a laugh in court for. She thought bitterly as she thrust her keys into the ignition of her Corvette. Thankfully she had gotten Harm's wings out of her hair before court but she hadn't given them back yet and she didn't really want to she wanted to put them under her pillow and keep them forever. She laughed at this thought but stopped short when her 'Vette wouldn't start. That's when Harm was heading towards his SUV. She tried the engine again and it sputtered and died.

"Damn!" She cursed and fell back into her seat. She sat for a minute and fingered Harm's wings, which she had pulled out of her purse.

"Having car trouble Jarhead?" said a voice beside her. She jumped and was relieved to see Harm's face next to her.

"You surprised me Harm, I thought you left and I was just thinking and yes I am having car trouble."

"Well I haven't left yet and I always make sure you are on your way before I go."

Oh how sweet he's such a gentleman. Mac thought, and was pulled out of her reverie once more by Harm.

"You thinking about me again?" Harm noted seeing Mac's hand still fingering the wings in her hand.

"In your dreams Sailor! And don't let your ego get the better of you. Oh wait it already has." Mac teased. She was glad couldn't see her blushing face.

Harm frowned and retorted,

"How many times do I have to tell you don't want to be in my dreams. Now just give me back my wings, I got fried for not wearing them in court today and let me drive you to the airport, okay?"

"Okay Flyboy and after we pick up Chloe then we can come back and get my things and my car." She said quickly and then realized how anxious she sounded at riding with him to the airport. Harm didn't seem to notice her enthusiasm. He just opened his passenger door to let her climb in.
