Into the Lyons Den Part 13
Harm and Mac walked through the firt floor to the elevators. They got a lot of surprised looks, but no one said anything to them. This would be because it has gotten through everyone that worked at JAG headquaters about what happened to Mac and that she was leaving them. Once in the elevator, Mac looked at Harm with a look of nevrousness in her eyes.
"Harm, I don't like this. Not one person said anything to us. That is unusual. They always talk to me."
Harm put his hand on the small of her back. All he really wanted to do was, wrap his arms around her , tell her that everything would be fine and hold her forever, but he knew that wasn't about to happen. "Mac. It's probably seeing me. They aren't use to seeing me anymore." Harm tried to lighten her spirit.
"Oh Harm, I think they know about he transfering. I mean, what else would cause this. The Adm. must be extremely mad about it."
Harm didn't have a chance to reply because the elevator dinged and the doors opened to the floor that they needed to go to.
Harm and Mac stepped out of the elevator into a whirl of furry. They heard a gasp from a woman, and when Mac looked over to find the source of this, she saw that it was Harriet. At the sound of Harriet, everyone else in the outer officed stopped what they were doing and looked at the couple.
When the Adm. heard the noise in the outer office stop, he went out to see what was going on. The sight that he was met with didn't surprise him. He knew that Mac and Harm were coming in, because he talked to a General Hammond on the phone the day before. To say that he wasn't pleased with the conversation would be an understatement. He also didn't look forward to the conversation he was about to have. "Alright ladies and gentlemen, the work will not do it's self, so get back to it." Almost as soon as he finished his sentence, everyone got back to their work. Harm and Mac walked over to the Adm.
"Col., Commander, please come in to my office." The Adm., turned and walked into his office, and Harm and Mac followed him. AJ went and sat down at his desk and this gave him time to study the two people that were now standing infront of him. "So, as you two would imagine, I wasn't very happy after I got off the phone with General Hammond yestorday. He called to inform me that my other best lawyer wants a transfer to his base, but the funny thing is, is when he told me what he was in charge of. Deep Space Telemetry, now I thought why would this need a JAG lawyer, and of course I also knew that it was a cover-up for something else. I told him what he would do if I said I wasn't going to let you go, and he threatened to call the President of the United States. Well, that right there gave me the clue that he wasn't going to back down. So Col. Mackenize, effective immediately is your transfer to the project. Please go clean out your office and hand in your ID to the officers when you leave. Dismissed." When AJ was done, he turned his attention to the paperwork that was on his desk.
Harm and Mac took that as their cue to leave the office, so they did. Harm followed Mac to her office and closed the door behind him. He made sure that the blinds were closed before pulling Mac into his embrace. They both stood like that, but were interupted by a knock on the door. Harm kissed the top of Mac's head then let her go to answer the door. Harm opened the door to a box carrying Lt. Sims.
"Harriet, please come in." Harm moved out of the way for her to walk into the room. She put the boxes down then turned to speak to Mac.
"Ma'am.. ahh Mac. We all know about your transfer, and we are really sad to see you go. But I think we all Understand that you need to leave."
"Thanks Harriet." Mac gave her a quick hug. "Please go back to work, I don't want you getting in trouble."
"Ok, Mac. but please, if you need any help, pleasae just let us know." With that she turned and walked out of the office. Harm and Mac looked at each other before starting to pack up her office.
An hour later, they had about everything packed up. "Mac, I'm going to start taking things down." Harm picked up some boxes and left. Mac took one last look at the office that she was about to leave. She wished the Tuner and Bud were in the office, so she could say goodbye, but they were away on a case.
About five minutes later, Mac heard Harm return, but also noticed that he was talking to someone. She turned around to see who it was, "Gunny", she went over and gave the marine a hug.
"Hello, Mac. So I met up with Harm downstairs and he gave me the quick version of the story. It's sad to see you go."
"I know, but this is something that I need to do."
"I understand. I also understand that you need help carrying these boxes, so I'm offering my services." With that Gunny picked up a few boxes and left. With him helpling all the boxes were in the car in twenty minutes.
Harm went up to get Mac to leave. "So Mac, you ready."
"Yeah, but can we announce to the office that we are together, I know they would love to hear it."
Harm was going to say no, but he knew that that would break his marine's heart. "Yeah, we can" Mac walked out of the office and Harm turned off the lights and followed her. They stopped right infornt of Harriet's desk.
"Excuse me, but Mac and I have something we need to say."
"I want to say thank you to everyone. You guys have been a blessing these eight years. I also want to say thank you to those few who put up with me since Harm left. I've been transfered to Colorado. I'm going to leave my new address with Harriet, and you know my email, so please, keep in touch. Also, I know that there are a few people that have been waiting for this, so here it is. Harm and I are together."
Mac just finished her sentence she was hugged by Harriet.
"Mac, I just knew that this was going to happen sometime, I'm glad that it's now." After everything calmed down a bit, Mac left her address with Harriet, then Harm and Mac left.
What the didn't know was that the Adm. stepped out of his office at the same time that Mac was making her annoucement. After she was finished, he went back into his office and looked out the window and watched as Mac and Harm got into the car that was waiting for them and watched it drive off. It was then when AJ realized that he made a huge mistake with not letting Harm back, and in the end it cost him dearly.
It took fifthteen minutes to get to Mac apartment. Once they were there, they packed everything up and mad arrangements to either have the stuff sent to Harm's house or put into storage. By 9pm, the two were on a plane heading back to Colorado.
