Chapter 17
I'm All About You
Harm
--------------------
There's something I've got to say
You're always with me even though you're far away
Talking to you on my cell
Just the sound of your voice makes my heart melt
Oh girl, its true
He watched her carefully. It was something he'd taken up since he'd gotten back. He still remembered her telling him that she overworked herself. She was starting to do that now, he knew. Why, he didn't know but he saw her staying late and knew she was coming in on weekends. He was starting to worry about her.
I'm all about you
I'm all about us
No baby, you'll never have to question my love
And every night
There's a new crowd
But it's always you I'm singing about
There is only one these words are going out to
Oh girl, I'm all about you
Her head was constantly down and he was sure it wasn't good for her neck. That gave Harm an idea. He stood and walked to Mac's office.
"Hey, Marine," he said, not knocking on her door.
"Harm, I can't…"
"Stand down Colonel. You need a break, Mac. I can't watch you tear yourself apart like this. Therefore, I propose a weekend away. I know a cabin I can get for the weekend. You up for it?" Mac looked up shocked.
"Are you sure? I don't know, Harm, I've got so much work to do…"
"Mac, if I went to the Admiral, he'd agree, you need the time off. Just a weekend, Mac."
I know you worry sometimes
Some other girl will make me
Forget you're mine
There's not a doubt in this world
That anyone could take
The place of my number one girl
It's true
He knew by the slump of her shoulders that she'd given in. So, he added the icing.
"I'll give you a massage… straighten out those neck and back muscles…" She shook her head affectionately.
"You are a godsend," she said finally. He gave her a flyboy grin.
"Is that a yes?"
"Yes, I will spend a weekend with you at this cabin, but no funny business. You hear?" she asked, her smile betraying her serious tone of voice. He gave her an innocent look and she did something he hadn't made her do in a long time.
She laughed.
I'm all about you
I'm all about us
No baby, you'll never have to question my love
And every night
There's a new crowd
But it's always you I'm singing about
There is only one these words are going out to
Oh girl, I'm all about you
He grinned the proverbial cat caught the canary grin all the way back to his voice.
"Harm you've found an awesome woman, haven't you?" Sturgis Turner asked, half joking, as he steeped into Harm's office.
"Right in front of my nose," Harm murmured just low enough for Sturgis to be unable to understand.
"Come on, tell me about her."
"Brilliant lawyer with a demanding CO and nosy co-workers," Harm replied. "Beautiful, strong-willed, independent…"
"And can hold her own with an M-16? Sounds like acertain Marine colonel we both know," Sturgis finished with a grin. Harmed masked his look of shock.
When I close my eyes I can see you
Its like you're right here
And this feeling's only getting stronger
You're with me everywhere
"Why didn't I do anything before now?" Harm asked himself, and therefore Sturgis, as he closed the door.
"What changed your mind?" Sturgis asked.
"Flying. I missed her terribly," Harm replied, grabbing his favourite picture of him and Mac off of his office shelf. It was at AJ's christening, just before he'd left to go fly.
"She missed you too. This office went to hell without you, Rabb." Sturgis said, dropping a file folder on Harm's desk and leaving Harm to ponder his mistakes.
I'm all about you
I'm all about us
No baby, you'll never have to question my love
And every night
There's a new crowd
But it's always you I'm singing about
There is only one these words are going out to
Oh girl, I'm all about you
He vowed to himself to make the most of his weekend at Frank's cabin. A chance to make up for his mistakes.
I'm sorry this took so long. I meant to type it up right after I got back but that just didn't happen with school starting and having to get everything back under control. I hope you guys won't kill me!
