Harm sat down on the bed next to Mac, and Mac kept her hold tight on his hand.

"Harm? I...I am just so scared, but I know what I want."

"Sarah, do you want to terminate this pregnancy?" Harm looked into her eyes, and she looked back.

"No." she stated plainly.

"No? What do you mean no? You can't risk your life for this Sarah. I can't..." Harm choked up and his voice trailed off.

"Harm, listen to me. I can't go through with terminating this pregnancy. I am in love with this little girl, and I will not end her life to save mine. I want this child to live. With or without me."

"But Sarah. You can't, I won't let you risk your life. I can't imagine my life without you. I CAN'T! I can't lose you."

"Harm, I am willing to do this for my daughter, OUR daughter. Harm, there is only a 75% chance that I will die. Now I know the odds are against us, but it's not certain. Harm, even if i do...die, you won't be losing me. I will still be here, in your heart, in our daughter. Even if I am not here physically, I will always be here, no matter what. I have to do this, we have to do this, for our daughter." Harm pulled her close, and rocked her.

" Sarah, if this is what you really want, then I will support you. For OUR daughter. I just...I don't want you to die." Harm held her close, and they fell asleep, holding each other close.

===========================================

The next morning, Harm woke up and cooked Mac breakfast. He decided to take her for a drive into the country, because he wanted to live life to the fullest with her while he had the chance.

"Good mornin honey." Mac said as she entered the kitchen in her bathrobe.

"Good morning angel." Harm said as he kissed her.

"PANCAKES!! I love pancakes!" Mac slid into the kitchen chair and grabbed her fork. Harm laughed and dished her up some breakfast.

"After we eat, let's go for a drive into the country, maybe to the park. Let's go have a picnic."

"OK, that sounds like fun." Mac smiled and dug into the pancakes.

After breakfast, they packed a picnic lunch, and got into the car. They drove for about an hour until they came to this little park on the state line between Virginia and Maryland. They got out of the car, and hand in hand, walked through the park until they got to the lake shore. They spread out the blanket, and Mac sat in-between Harm's legs, and rested up against his chest. All of a sudden she tensed up.

"Sarah? Are you OK?" Harm asked, concerned.

"Feel this Harm." She took his hands and wrapped them around her stomach so they rested over top of her stomach. "The baby is kicking for the first time." Mac giggled with delight.

Harm sat with his arms around her in awe as he whispered, "What a miracle."
