"Looks like someone is home." Mac said as she heard the front door open.
They had already started dinner because he was running late.
"Mac?" He called.
"In here." Mac replied glancing at Abi to make sure he hadn't disturbed her.
"Started without me?" He questioned as he dropped a kiss on her lips.
"You're late and I'm hungry."
"Meeting ran over." He moved and kissed his grandmother on the cheek. "Hey Grams."
"I left yours in the oven to keep warm."
"Thanks. Sturgis."
"Don't even think about kissing me buddy." Mac smiled at his comment.
"What are you doing here?" Harm asked.
"It turns out women with Rabb as a last name are difficult to say no to. I was also informed you don't say no to Grams' pot roast."
"True." He smiled. "Let me just dump this stuff and get my food and you can tell me what you were talking about when I came in." Sturgis shot Mac a look which had her chuckle. "What?"
"Nothing, go get your dinner."
"There is a story here." He said.
"I'm sure there is, but right now we're eating." Mac winked at him.
"I'll get it out of you later."
"You can try."
"Harmon go and get your dinner there's a good boy."
"Yes Grams." He went and did as he was told.
"The Admiral would like to have you around the office Mrs Rabb if you can keep Harm under control like that." Sturgis said with a smile.
"Call me Grams, Sturgis." She patted him on the hand.
"Okay Grams."
"Now if I can just convince Jennifer and we'll be all set."
"How long have you been trying to convince Jen?" Mac asked.
"Since just after the wedding. I speak to her whenever I call; all that formality makes me feel old."
"We wouldn't want that. I'll see what I can do."
"See what you can do about what?" Harm asked as he carried his plate back to the table.
"About arranging world peace." Mac replied.
"You may have a tough time convincing some people that it's a good idea all by yourself."
"Don't worry Sturgis has offered to help."
"I did?" Sturgis questioned with surprise.
"Sure you did. You don't think dinner invitations come without consequences do you?"
"So what were you really going to see if you do something about?" Harm questioned.
"You know you're very nosy today." Mac said.
"I'm a lawyer, it a positive trait."
"You're also a pilot. I heard you've got your carrier quals this weekend." Sturgis said.
"Yeah."
"When are you leaving?" Sturgis asked Mac tensed.
"My flight is at 1000 on Friday. That's what I was coming to see you about earlier." He said to Mac.
"Wasn't the note I got."
"I know, I figured I should tell you in person since you were busy."
"I know about that. I had talk to her while she went to get Abi."
"Maybe you should drop Abi off on Friday before you leave, it will give you a chance to say goodbye."
