Love, Home, Hurt
Chapter 2
Mac came in early the next morning with her hair carefully covering the bruise left by Webb's strike last night.
"Hey there Jarhead," Harm yelled to Mac. Mac didn't answer and continued walking. "What did I do?"
"Nothing! Nothing!" Mac assured him. "I just have a lot on my mind right now," Mac said as she unlocked her office door. She opened the door and walked around to the back of her desk opening her briefcase as she subconsciously tucked her hair behind her ear exposing the bruise on her cheek.
"Oh my god! What the hell happened to your cheek?" Harm questioned Mac concered.
"Nothing," Mac began. "We have to get to court."
"Don't change the subject Mac," Harm said blocking her path out of the door. "Where did you get that bruise?"
"An accident," Mac offered timidly.
"An accident?" Harm questioned. "Yes I guess that is what you call it when a husband hits his wife."
Mac stared at Harm sharply. "Webb never hit me! We have to be in court come on lets go."
"Mac something is up please tell me," Harm insisted.
"I'm telling you the truth," Mac said. "Now we're going to be late. Let's go."
"I'll be right there," Harm replied as he moved towards his office phone and dialed the admiral's number.
"Okay," Mac said as she continued walking towards the courtroom.
"Hi Admiral can I come into your office for a minute?" Harm asked over the phone. He listened to the admiral's reply. "Thank you sir." %$#) "What did you need to see me about?" AJ asked as Harm walked into his office.
"Sir, It's Colonel Mackenzie," Harm began. "Permission to speak freely?"
"Granted," Admiral Chedwiggen said.
"Sir I've notice changes in the Colonel's behavior for the past few months," Harm began. "She doesn't have any free time anymore. She never talks to us about her personal life anymore and today she came into work with a bruise on her cheek claiming that it was an accident."
"Your point commander?" AJ asked.
"I think that the Colonel has become a victim of domestic violence," Harm concluded. %$# Author's Note: I know it was a while since my last update but my muse decided to take a vacation when it came to this story. So please tell me what you think!
