Last Chapter:
The Admiral cut him off, "And if you both love each other there is always a way around the rules," Admiral Chegwidden said placing a hand on Harm's shoulder. "She's asleep. Looks like she was pretty tired," Mac said not realizing that the Admiral had just set in motion the wheels turning in Harm's head. Who says dreams can't come true with a little luck and a whole lot of love.
Disclaimer is in the first chapter which basically states that I don't own any of the characters, I'm just using them in my crazy stories.
Chapter 2
Mac suddenly realized that both Harm and the Admiral looked a little dazed. "Did I interupt something," she asked feeling uncomfortable? "No, actually Harm and I were just talking about where the three of you were going to live," AJ said. Mac looked over at Harm. "I hadn't even thought of that. With the baby we'll have to buy a house because once we adopt her, she's going to need both of us," Mac said. "You know your right Mac. Tomorrow morning I'll set up an appointment with the realtor so we can begin looking at some homes," said Harm. "We also need to go shopping tomorrow and pick up some things for Bella. We'll need a car seat, stroller, some clothes, a crib, one of those little baby back pack carrier things, more bottles, formula, diapers, and wipes," Mac said trying to recite a list in her head. "Easy Mac, give me time to catch up on the thought of getting a house," Harm said laughing. "Well if the two of you don't need me anymore, I think I'll head home and try to get some sleep, although now that I know I have a niece it might be a little difficult," AJ said smiling. "Thank you for everything AJ. We really appreciate it," Harm said. Harm walked him to the door, then shut and locked it behind him.
The two of them then walked over to couch and fell back onto it. "I can't believe by tomorrow we'll be parents. Although the upside is my mother will be ecstatic," Harm said smiling. "I hope so. I'm a little nervous about what your mother will think about me as the child's mother though," Mac said. "Mac, my mother adores you. From the first time I told her about you, she was thrilled that I had a female partner who could keep me in line as well as you. Then after Russia and then when you had a vision of me in the ocean, well she was ready to put you on a pedestal," Harm said taking her hand. "I can't wait to tell Chloe. She'll be so excited," Mac said. They sat there silently, Harm's hand still entwined with Mac's. "We're going to be okay Mac. I promise you, we'll do everything possible to give Bella, the best of everything life has to offer," Harm said squeezing Mac's hand. "Thanks Harm," she said reaching over and hugging him. As they pulled apart, they both sat their frozed in place staring into the others eyes, almost like they could see into each others soul. "I guess we should go to bed. Rest up for tomorrow," Harm said breaking the eye contact between them. "Yeah, I'll sleep here on the couch," said Mac. "Mac you'll never sleep comfortably on the couch. I'll take the couch and you can sleep in my room," Harm said protesting. "Harm you wouldn't even fit. We're both adults and we'll probably be sharing a bed once we buy a house, so we can share your bed for tonight," Mac said. Harm raised his eye brows, a smirk playing on his lips. "Your right Mac. We are both adults and it's the only way either of us will sleep comfortably," he said.
They both walked nervously into Harm's room. Mac went over to check on Bella, while Harm went into the bathroom and changed into a pair of pajama bottoms. "She's still sound asleep. You know, Harm, once we get settled into a house, I think it'll be hard to stay away from her room at night, just so I can check on her every night," Mac said. She slipped her robe off, revealing a navy blue silk night gown with a low neck line. She didn't hear Harm come from the bath room, a pair of blue pajama bottoms and no shirt on (ladies use your imagination, I know it doesn't take much). He stopped in his tracks at the sight of her, an angelic figure was standing right in front of him. Mac turned around as her eyes settled on his bare chest. "Very nice Commander," Mac said smiling trying to lighten the mood. "Your not so bad yourself Colonel, although I see you didn't lead the lingerie at home again," he said trying to be cute. "This is hardly lingerie Harmon, just wait til we're living together then you'll really see some lingerie," she said her voice playful yet serious. Harm seemed shocked by her words, his face turning crimson as they climbed into bed. "Dare I hope I have made the great Harmon Raab blush," said Mac smiling deeply as she stared over at him. "I never blush Sarah, I just get even," he said a smile playing on his lips as well. Mac smiled over at him. It was nice to have this easy bantering between us, even if there is a little bit of flirting Mac thought as she settled under the covers. "Goodnight Harm," she said settling her head on the pillow. "Good night Mac. Sweet dreams," he said as he turned out the light.
The next morning Mac awoke and found that her head was lying on someone's chest. She also felt a hand on the small of her back holding her tight. Looking up she found the content and asleep Harm, who seemed to unaware of their position. Mac gently climbed out of his embrace and stood up stretching. She looked over at Bella who looked back up at her, bright blue eyes sparkling. "Hey Bella girl. What do you say we go make daddy some break fast," Mac asked the smiling baby. Bella just made some gurgling sounds and a happy smile came about. "I can't believe I just called Harm daddy, but that's what we are. We're going to be your parents Bella. We'll be a family, all of us. You'll love our family at JAG and Harm's parents too," said Mac to the child as they walked into the kitchen. Mac filled Bella's bottle with formula, then sat down with her to feed her.
Suddenly hearing a knock at the door, Mac placed Bella down in her basket and went to get the door. Opening it, she found the shocked face of Commander Sturgis Turner. "Mac what on earth are you doing at Harm's apartment in that at this hour," he asked trying to get the whole question out? Before Mac could explain, Harm walked out from his room, a sleepy look in his eyes, his hair dishelveled. Not seeing the open door, he began to speak, "Mac, why didn't you wake me up, we didn't go to bed that late last night," he said his voice heavy with sleep. Sturgis looked from Mac's silk night gown to Harm's sleepy figure with a quirky smile playing on his face and a slightly embarassed Mac. "Well I must say Colonel I'm curious, did I interupt something," he asked a smirk on his face as he watched Mac's features change.
The next chapter should be up soon. I know it's a weird way to end a chapter, but I'm in the process of revising it, to try and make it better but I will give you a few hints on the next chapter:
Harm gets a call from a loved one, who is to say the least, enthusiastic about baby Bella.
Harm and Mac become parents and learn that they are slowly becoming closer than they ever thought possible.
The Admiral cut him off, "And if you both love each other there is always a way around the rules," Admiral Chegwidden said placing a hand on Harm's shoulder. "She's asleep.
