Author's Note: Okay so here is the next chapter.  Sorry it took so long I actually finished it yesterday and meant to upload it but got busy.  My next update is going to be for my story You Had Me From Hello, I finally found the right song I was looking for.  I hope that you guys like this chapter, I must warn you though there is foul language in it.  Under normal circumstances I dislike swear words, however when characters are in such rage and anger and emotion it becomes warranted.  I think that is it for now, so please enjoy and review.  No reviews means no next chapter, no reason to continue if no one likes it.  But thanks to all those that have reviewed the last few chapters!

Sturgis drove Harm to Bethesda Naval Hospital for a special "head from six" removal and stitches. Part of Sturgis sympathized with Harm, his relationship with Mac was definitely strenuous and exhausting. I could deal with her when Harm left and she let out her little secret

Flashback

"Is there something going on between you to?"

"We've never slept together."

"Is that the problem?"

"It's complicated." Gets up to shut her office door.

"So move on."

"It wouldn't work."

"Why not?"

"Because I'm in love with him."

Flashback

And I know he loves her, after all what man would give up his career in search of a woman even if she was his partner and best friend...When I tell the Admiral what happened tonight, he is going to give Harm another reason to be in the hospital. I feel bad for slugging him, but his actions warranted it. Jumping to conclusions (AN: like the Jump to Conclusions mat mentioned in Office Space, lol) as always you'd think being a lawyer he'd never do that sort of ting; I guess it's true, love really does make you act crazy...

Harm started to stir in the seat next to him. Sturgis leaned over and whacked him upside the head.

"Owww! What the fuck was that for?! And why the hell do I have a fat lip...my head's bleeding! What the hell did you do to me, Sturgis?! And where are you taking me?"

"I punched you earlier tonight to shut you up and to subdue you. I'm taking you to Bethesda. And I hit you just know because you infuriate me, you've made a horrible conclusion tonight with misinterpreted evidence! Then you wouldn't answer your god-damn phone and let me tell you what's going on!"

"What do you mean conclusions?! And what the hell is so damn important that you had to subdue me and throw me into your car?!"

Just then Sturgis pulled into the hospital parking lot. Sturgis turned off the car, jumped out and pulled Harm out of the passenger's seat.

"Get your hands off of me, you asshole!"

Sturgis let most of what Harm was saying roll off of his back. He knew he was drunk, upset, and confused. Harm started to walk off, when Sturgis grabbed his shoulder and whipped him around. Time for some more tough love...

"No Harm! I'm dragging your sorry drunk ass into that fucking hospital to a woman whose in love with you, for god knows what reason, that is being wheeled up to the operating room! Hell I spent so much time trying to find you that she's probably already been put under you jackass!"
"What the fuck are you talking about! Unless you're referring to my mother or grandmothers then there is no woman who loves me that could be in that hospital!"
"There you go again jumping to all those damn conclusions instead of letting me finish you fucking idiot! I've been trying to tell you all night that Mac is in the hospital. The woman you love and who loves you is about to be operated on!"
"Mac isn't in the hospital. She is in her apartment having mad, wild, passionate sex with Clay! So unless she's in the OR having him surgically removed from her there is no way that Mac is in that hospital!"

"And how would you know where Mac is Harm, huh?!"

"I went to her apartment tonight to tell her. How I feel and I never want her to leave. That I want to marry her and have children with her! But I get there and things are knocked around in her apartment. The lights were off, car was home, and Clay came into town yesterday. Safe assumption, Sturgis!"
"Well do I have news for you, jackass! Mac got the shit beat out of her tonight! Her thrashed apartment was because she fought back with her attacker, not because she was in a sexual frenzy with Clay! Two people hurt her tonight her attacker and you for not being there when she needed you. She's been asking for you ever since the paramedics picked her up."

"Wha...What...do you mean beat up?" Harm said barely audible.

"Yeah Harm someone beat her ass up and now she is the operating room having surgery to fix her lungs and put pins in her legs!"

"God..." Tears were slowly welling up in his eyes as the realization of Sturgis's words pushed past the drunken haze.

"Who the hell beat her up?! When I get my hands on that filthy bastard I'm gonna kill him! No one and I mean no one has the right to do that to anyone, especially Mac!"

"Oh now you choose to be protective of her! Who the hell gave you the right to care about Mac!"

Sturgis said wanting Harm to admit to himself and out loud the real reason he cared for Mac. C'mon buddy say the words!

"I love her! I'm in love with her! Sturgis I've given myself to right to care about her because I love her with all of my heart that none is left to ever love any other woman!"

Finally....It only took him 9 years, X months...if Mac were here she could give me the exact time...

"Who hurt her Sturgis! So help me..."

"We don't know Harm. Mac was unconscious most of the time and hasn't said anything other than her name and rank and begging to see you. Unless something new has developed since I last spoke to the Admiral. Last I heard he was filling out consent forms since you, her emergency contact, wasn't there and trying to find Clayton Webb."

"You mean he isn't here?"

"Unless the Admiral has gotten a hold of him."

"Well what are we waiting for, wasting time in a cold, dark parking lot while the woman I love is being operated on."

Harm started off towards the hospital when his legs gave out on him and fell flat on his face. Sturgis ran up to him and pulled him up.

"Harm? Harm? You alright?" Great he's knocked himself out.

Sturgis wrapped one of Harm's arms around his neck then his arm around Harm's waist and drug him into the ER. The doors slide open and Sturgis called out to the Admiral who was sitting beside Harriet and Bud in the chairs.

"What the hell happened to him?" The Admiral inquired.

"Well sir I hit him back in the park, drove him over here, got into a bit of a scuffle when he wouldn't let me tell him about Mac. Then admitted his love and rushed towards the hospital to be by her side. When his legs gave out and he hit the cold pavement, knocking himself out."

"Nurse, can we have a chair for him to get stitches?" Bud asked after coming over to help Turner and Chegwidden with Harm's dead weight.

"Right away sir." The nurse said, "Follow me to Curtain 2."

"How's Mac sir?" Turner asked hoping to find out that his friend and colleague was doing alright under the present circumstances.

"They took her upstairs about 15 minutes ago. We we're waiting to head upstairs to the OR waiting room until you and Harm got here. Harriet, why don't you and Bud go on up there and wait for information on Mac. I'll stay here with the Commanders, while Harm gets patched up."

"Yes, sir." The couple said in unison and headed towards the elevators to go to the surgery waiting area.

Sturgis and AJ returned their attention back to Harm.

"So are you going to tell me the whole story, Commander, as to what really happened out there tonight?"

Sturgis then proceeded to relay all the details of the night.

"You whacked him upside the head?" AJ asked laughingly. I want to whack him in the head almost every day, lucky Turner.

"Yes sir. Someone needed to knock some sense into him, figuratively and literally."

"Well done, Turner, well done."

"Thank you sir. Any word on Webb's whereabouts, not that I like him in the least but he has a right to know the health of his girlfriend; I'll never understand what Mac sees in him."

"Neither will I, except the fact that he was willing and she and Harm have never been willing at the same time in order to make something between them work out. But I have called and left a message on his home phone twice, two more voicemails on his cell phone. I even called Kershaw to find out if he was in the field. He said he wasn't, so I haven't a clue as to why I can't get a hold of him. I'd send someone out to find him, but Mac asked for Harm not Clay. People tend to confess their true feelings when faced with such perilous objects such as this."

"True sir. But how many dangerous missions have Harm and Mac been on, and still no confession of their love to one another. They've both confessed it to me, and if it wasn't for that simple fact then I'd be questioning our own sanity, sir. That perhaps it was just all of us seeing something, a chemistry, that wasn't really there."

"Good point Sturgis. We may need to get some security/insurance on this issue in order to ensure the desired results. After all I won't be at JAG eternity, which is how long they might just continue this dance of there's, so if I'm going to call in favors and pull major Admiral's privilege to keep them together we need to start now. Any ideas?"

During their conversation Harm lay on a hospital bed having his vitals taken, an IV saline drip put in, and stitches for his head were being prepared. The ER doctor patching Harm back up also told the nurse to get him a CT scan to make sure neither the Commander nor the pavement caused any long term damage.

The Admiral turned to the doctor and said, "I doubt there will be doctor the Commander has a really, really thick skull!" The nurse, doctor, and Sturgis all began to laugh at the Admiral's candor. Just then Harm woke up from his unconscious stupor. He could hear laughing off in the distance, everything looked hazy and blurred. He could make out four people standing around him. One was a woman in all white, holding his hand. Did I pass out at my wedding or something? I can hear the Admiral and Sturgis's voices. He turned to look at the woman in white, she had beautiful short hair which was about all he could make out of her appearance due to the blurred vision. "Maaaccc..." Harm managed to choke out while turning and looking at the nurse.

"Mac, what are you doing here? And why are you in white?"

"Well a girl can't get too much of a good thing, remember? And you're going to mine forever and we are going to master the good thing as much and as often as possible."

"Mac." Harm blushed. "The Admiral is standing right there. Don't talk like that, do you have any idea what you do to me?"

"Of course I do, and I take great pride and pleasure in it." She said smiling seductively at him.

Then the woman Harm thought was Mac leaned in to check his pupils. Harm finally focused his eyes, gasped in shock that the woman he was talking to wasn't Mac.

"Oh shit! Who are you?" God I hope I don't have amnesia again! Am I getting married to this woman who I don't even recognize?! Harm asked himself remembering how he had forgotten that he and Renee were a couple after his Tomcat took a dip into the Atlantic on the way to Mac's wedding to Mic. I wish that amnesia had been true, so I wouldn't have wasted anytime with Renee and that night that Mic went back to Australia and Mac came over to talk about...us...we could have actually talked and then she'd be the woman in all white right now.

"I'm your nurse, Johanna. Do you know where you are? Your name?"

"I'm Commander Harmon Rabb, Jr., and since you said you're a nurse I am then going to assume that I am in a hospital."

Harm let out a huge sigh of relief. I'm not marrying this woman! Thank goodness I was about to go into panic mode.

"Do you know why you are in the hospital sir?"

Harm suddenly had a flood of flashbacks to the preceding evening....Mac's apartment, a blonde in the bar, knocked out in the park, announcing my love for Mac, cold hard pavement...Harm sat up much to quickly and started yelling for Mac, "Where is Mac?!?!" But this sudden movement caused him to get dizzy, throw-up, and then pass out again.

Still to come perhaps....

Mac Operation?

Where's Clay?

Who hurt Mac?

Will Harm wake up again?
