A Gift of Song
Summary: From beginning to end in song. Mac and Harm's past, present and future accompanied by various artists.
Pairing: Um… duh! Mac/Harm
Distribution: If you want it, take it but please warn me and tell me where its going.
Rating: PG with a lot of tears
Disclaimer: I swear I don't own the people you recognize. I only like to play around with them and make things go my way. DPB owns them along with Paramount and CBS.
Spoilers: Just about everything basically. Some of the cases won't be covered, of course but a lot of major moments in the lives of Mac and Harm will be.
Author's Notes: I'm doing my research for this one but there's no guarantee that I'll get everything right. Please correct me if I make a mistake. Thanks! Also, I'm about to get into the AU stuff. I originally was only going to follow but I changed my mind because I'm highly against the Brumby/Mac thing. Therefore, I'm skipping over that whole thing eventually.

Chapter 8
Tomorrow
Mac and Harm
----------
You used to say, that everyday
We will always be this way
Flying Angels lifting high
To reach the sun where I belong
Girl you know you were the one
Above the clouds I see you cry
"It's only two days Mac. We'll be back together before you know it," Harm said, wrapping his arms tightly around her. She hugged him back, stepping away after a couple of minutes to beside Keeter.
"Be safe, sailor. Don't make me come back to find you," Mac replied with a grin. Harm smiled back, his flyboy grin that even under oath she wouldn't admit made her weak in the knees.
"I'll see you in 48 hours, Mac."
You know that when you smile
You stop the rain
And we will be together
Once again
Although I'm gone, remember me
Please be strong, I'll never leave
Just hold on, to the memories
While I'm here, all I'm thinking about is
Tomorrow
"So, Major, what exactly is your relationship with Harm?" Keeter asked as they were driving through the desert. Mac hid a smile.
"The Commander and I work together. Nothing more," she answered.
"And I'm the president of the United States and Skipper of every ship in the fleet," Keeter shot back. Mac looked injured.
They'd been working through the desert for the last day and the two of them had talked non-stop. Keeter had numerous stories about Harm's days at the academy and Mac had a few new ones from JAG. They'd formed a sort of brother sister bond at the same time. They drove each other nuts and more than once Mac had pulled rank on him.
"Then maybe I should be saluting you, Mr. Preident, sir," Mac pointed out.
I've always known
The love you've shown
Means I'll never be alone
There'll be times you wonder why
Seeing you with someone new
Used to make me feel so blue
But now I'm with you
All the time
"Come on, Major. Even a blind man can see there's something between you."
"I swear on my oath as a Marine, there's nothing going on between Harm and I," Mac said impatiently. Keeter lifted his cast in an innocent gesture, his other hand steering the vehicle.
"I'm sorry, Major." Mac looked out across the desert, allowing herself to leave the Iran desert and look back on their various experiences including Russia and her stupid stint leaving JAG with Dalton. He'd always stood by her in her decisions even though she had pushed and pushed to get him to let her stay in Russia with him.
Although I'm gone, remember me
Please be strong, I'll never leave
Just hold on, to the memories
While I'm here, all I'm thinking about is
Tomorrow
From the moment that I looked into your eyes
All my life I thought I'd be there by your side
I wish I'd took the time to find the words to say
Harm climbed out of the simulator slightly shaken. He'd flown a simulation flight remarkably similar to his flight in the stealth.
"So tell me commander, if that would have failed when you were flying it two days ago would you have tried to land?"
"Yes he would have," came a voice from the doorway. Harm spun, recognizing the voice.
"Mac, you're okay!" he exclaimed, ignoring the officers around and giving her a hug. Mac returned the hug fiercely.
You know that when you smile
You stop the rain
And we will be together once again
Although I'm gone, remember me
Please be strong, I'll never leave
Just hold on to the memories
'Cause while I'm here all I think about is
Tomorrow
I know this wasn't really here, but I felt that it really needed to be added… okay really its because I just saw the episode and decided there were a whole bunch of Mac/Harm moments in it though I never touched on Mac's probable feeling of insigificantcy… which isn't a word but oh well.
