Wrapped Up In You

Chapter 3
A/N: I know it's short, but it's all I got right now. I'm better at one shot's. Continuing things isn't my forte, but oh well! Enjoy! :)
Harm pulled into JAG Headquarters at 1000 sharp. He raced into the office, and put his cover and briefcase in his office. Mac followed close behind. "Sir, Ma'am?" Coates said as they walked toward the coffee machine. "The Admiral would like to see you." Harm and Mac gave each other a weary glance before heading into the outer office. Harm knocked.
"Enter!" the Admiral called through the closed door. Harm and Mac went in and closed the door behind them.
"You wanted to see us Sir?" Harm asked as they stood at attention.
"At ease, at ease. Have a seat." The Admiral looked over his reading glasses at his two best officers, hands folded on his desk. "Well, I've heard both of your stories over the phone, but my only question is should I believe them?" The Admiral looked directly at each officer, and waited for a response. When none came he spoke again. "Here, I'll make this easy for both of you. I know you were together this morning, and i suspect last night as well. I called Colonel Mackenzie's apartment last night to ask here how she was doing on her deriliction case, and there was no answer. I called her cell phone, and there still was no answer." The Admiral looked back and forth between the two, but no one spoke. "And to top it off, I see a new piece of jewelery on the Colonel here. Nice ring, and is that a silver necklace I see?" Mac blushed as she tucked the necklace back under her uniform, and made a move to conceal the ring. "Come on guys, come clean with me, damn, I'll be happy for you." Harm glanced at Mac and she nodded.
"Sir, Mac was...at my apartment last night working on the case with me, and, well Sir...I told her the truth and sang her a song, gave her a ring...and proposed. She accepted, and then we fell asleep on the couch...but that's all Sir, I swear." Harm looked at the Admiral, and both he and Mac were surprised when he stood up, walked around his desk, and gave Mac a hug. He shook Harm's hand, and smiled.
"Well, I am very happy for you, and as your friend, I am supporting you in every way possible. but as your commanding officer, we have some details to work out. Now you have a couple options. One of you can transfer, one of you can resign, Mackenzie, I have gotten a request from judiciary for you to transfer there to be a judge. They are losing a judge over there, and they need a replacement. I think you would do very well over there." He stood for a moment, while they both contemplated the choices.
"Well Sir." Mac finally spoke. "Neither of us wants to leave the service, and we would like to stay working in the same building, and I did enjoy being a judge. I think me being a judge is the best for everyone involved. I would like to transfer as of next week if that is possible."
"Very well Colonel. I'll submit your transfer to be approved, and you can start cleaning out your office. I'll let them know you are coming, and they can open up your new office so you can move right in. Commander, you can take the Colonel's office so you don't have to be stuck in that stinky supply closet. Dissmissed."
Harm and Mac stood at attention and then turned and walked out. As they walked through the bullpen, Harm spoke. "Well that went well...a little too well." Mac gae him a look. "I mean it Mac. What makes me think he had this all set up beforehand. The transfer and everything." Mac just rolled her eyes, patted his cheek and said "You're funny." before walking to her office for the last time.
