Chapter 6 Dinner and Happy endings Part 1

Thursday Afternoon

Jag Headquarters

Harm's office

5:40p.m

Harm and Mac broke apart at lightening fast speed when they saw the Admiral standing in the door way.

"I do not need," he started, "my two senior officers setting a bad example, lying of the floor-

"Sir we can explain," Mac interrupted.

"Colonel," the Admiral snapped. "Can you please let me finish my sentences? You and Coats' are getting more and more alike these days," he added, as he shook his head.

Mac didn't say anymore and let him finish his lecture.

"I don't need you two fraternizing or whatever the hell you two were doing! Now whatever the amount of paper work you both have I want it doubled. Now you guys sure in hell better have a good excuse!"

"It was my fault, sir," Mac said, jumping up to stand by Harm, "I'm the one that brought in the kitten, which ended up lose, who then trashed-

"A kitten, Colonel? Didn't I say no pets were allowed?"

"It's not her fault, sir. The kitten was a present from me," Harm said, coming to Mac's rescue.

"Despite that, I said no pets. First there was little AJ's frog for one, and after that I banned animals at Jag."

"Don't forget the snake that Bud was watching," Sturgis said, as he joined the growing crowd of on lookers outside the office.

"Hey, we forgot about that one," Jen said, looking at Mac, as she chewed her popcorn, Harriet was passing around.

The Admiral turned around at the sound of the other voices. There were about six people looking in the door way, chewing popcorn like they were watching a movie.

"Can't I talk to anyone alone?????" He asked the people outside the door. They looked at him confused until he said, "Go!!!!" Everyone that was watching dispersed throughout the office areas only to come back a few seconds later.

"Now where was I....oh yeah. So now a kitten? Do you guys just like to disobey my orders?" The Admiral asked sounding really pissed off.

"No, sir," they started to say when they were interrupted by a cute little mew coming from around the corner.

"Mew...mew," the kitten said, as they looked at her.

All the anger and pissed off feelings left the Admiral, as he saw the extremely cute kitty.

"Why aren't you a cute kitty," said the Admiral as he scooped down to pick her up.

Harm and Mac exchanged relieved glances at the Admirals changed behavior. They were off the hook, and the kitten's cute behavior had saved them, for now. Harriet, Jen, Bud and Sturgis gathered around the Admiral to admire the kitty.

"So this is the kitty that we were running all over the building to find," Harriet said, as she stroked her fur.

"What's her name?" The Admiral asked.

"Well...." Mac said. "Since this little kitty has been getting into soooooooo much mischief lately, I think it would only be suitable to call her Mischief."

"Little Mischief it is," said the Admiral, as the rest of them cooed over the black kitten.

Harm pulled Mac over to the side. "Any chance you would like to have dinner with me? We could start where we left off, if you wanted to."

"Sure," Mac answered. "Dinner would be great. Would we be eating with Mattie?"

"She decided to take her father's offer for dinner at his place tonight."

"How are you handling that?"

"It's ok, her father just wants the best for her now and I'm sure she'll have a good time. Besides I was talking with him and we sort of became friends. So it's all good."

"Picking up some Mattie slang?" Mac asked, knowing that Mattie always said, it's all good.

"What?" Harm asked confused. "It's all good has been around forever."

"But I've never heard you say it before," Mac argued.

"It guess I haven't but it is all good. I'm having dinner with My Marine so I won't be alone tonight.

Thursday Night

Harm's Apartment North Union Station

6:30pm

Harm and Mac arrived at Harm's apartment a few hours later. Normally they would stay at work passed seven thirty but they had dinner plans with each other. When they arrived Mattie was still there.

"Hey Harm, hey Mac," Mattie said, as they walked in. Mattie was on the couch with her feet up reading a magazine.

"Hey Mattie, what happened to dinner with your father?" Harm asked surprised, as he hung Mac's jacket up for her.

"Eager to get rid of me?" Mattie asked, cocking an eyebrow.

"No, just you were looking forward to it."

"He's not coming for another five minutes," she said flipping through her magazine. She looked up as an idea came into her head. "You two having dinner together?"

"As a mater of fact, we are," Harm answered.

"Ohhhhhhhhh," Mattie said, as her eyes traveled to Harm then to Mac. "A kitten!" Mattie said a few seconds later, as she noticed the kitten wrapped up in Mac's arms.

"Her names Mischief, she was a gift from Harm," Mac said proudly.

"Harm never gives me good gifts like this," Mattie said. "Can I hold her?"

"Sure," Mac replied, as she handed her over.

"She's soooooooo cute."

Knock...knock....

"He's early," Mattie said handing the kitten back to Mac. She grabbed her jacket then said, "Don't stay up to late, if ya know what I mean."

"Mattie!!!!!" Harm said, as his cheeks flushed bright red.

"I'm just kidding," Mattie said giving him a hug. "See ya guys later," she added. She dashed to the door and dragged her dad away before he could say a word.

"Have fun!" Harm and Mac shouted down the hall.

20 minutes later.........

Mac and Harm were deeply involved in making dinner. Harm tried to convince Mac to let him make dinner, but she refused and insisted on helping him. They were having fun talking while they made meatless lasagna for him and regular lasagna for her.

"Hey, Harm, do you have any salad?"

"Yeah, but I thought that you were on a strictly junk diet, no healthy food included."

"Yeah I was, but for some reason I have just tasted caesar salad and it's really good. Do you have caesar dressing?"

"In the door," Harm said pulling out the lasagna.

"I never really liked salad before but caesar dressing brought a whole new meaning to the word salad. I can't seem to get enough of it."

"I know what you mean," Harm said taking out the lettuce. "I love salad and I eat it all the time. Did you know that some old fashion Italian restaurants make their caesar salad dressing with raw egg yoke?"

Mac froze, "They do?"

"Yeah I just found out."

"Does this bottle have raw egg in it?"

"No it's only the traditional restaurants that use the egg."

"Few..." Mac said relieved. "I can't imagine eating raw egg. "I think I'll just stick with this bottled stuff."

"Yeah the bottled caesar dressing is much better."

30 minutes later they were ready to eat and sat down together on his couch along with the sleeping kitten.
