Author's Note: I know it's a short chapter I'm sorry, but I had to tie up the other fic. Plus I'm sick but have drugs! Thank goodness for antibiotics! I also figured it was time to let Harm off the hook and focus my attention to other people that should be burned at the stake and receive wonderful torture from great Medieval devices as mentioned in GuitarVixen's Stolen reviews in regards to Renee. Enough talk time for you to read and REVIEW, the number of reviews will determine how quickly I update (hint hint). Okay enough threats and thanks to those that have reviewed BlueShadow(yes the didn't delete the O's and continued was meant to be a good thing not bad, so where's your update?!) Laevda, Jackia(rule out Lindsey he's too weak and Palmer it isn't his style remember), GuitarVixen, justme(I TOTALLY understand about exams, no worries), froggy(but I want the real one –pouts/whines-!)

"Holy shit! Who was that?!" Harm walked over to the answering machine and removed the tape. Whoever it was, is responsible for putting Mac into the hospital. Harm was tempted to call the Admiral and notify him of the message, but then thought twice about it. It was late and they all needed sleep, besides there wasn't anything they could do about it until morning anyways. Harm put the tape into a Ziploc bag and placed it in his lock box. Five minutes later he had changed out of his dress whites and collapsed on his bed, he turned his alarm clock on and fell asleep fast asleep completely unaware of the person sitting across the street from his apartment building.

Later that night Webb woke up and decided to go get cleaned up. He walked around his apartment, taking notice of the empty bottles of Cognac and Daniels. He walked into his bedroom to find Catherine Gale laying naked in his bed fast asleep. What the hell happened last night? He vaguely remembered something about Mac, but had no idea how he had ended up with Catherine. Did I call her or did she call me? Sarah's gonna kill me if find's out. But hell she's probably sleeping with Harm on the side. He said angrily to himself. Webb took off his shoes, loosened his tie, stripped down to his boxers and crawled into bed with Catherine. Well if Sarah doesn't want to spend time with me, I'll spend time with this naked woman next to me...

"It's 7:50 and time for the traffic and weather report..." Harm's alarm radio stated.

He woke up, rolled over, turned off the alarm, and sat up. He was about to stand when he felt a wave of dizziness pass over him. A few minutes later Harm climbed into the shower and got ready to go to the hospital to see Mac in the ICU.

A half and hour later, Harm grabbed a cup of coffee and walked out the door, climbed into his Lexus and drove down to Bethesda.

He parked his SUV and made his way upstairs to the ICU, flowers in hand. The nurse that had been working behind the nurse's station last night was on her way out having just finished her 12 hour shift.

"Oh, Commander, your girlfriend has been moved to the fourth floor, the surgical recovery ward, into a regular hospital room about an hour ago."

"Thanks so much for notifying my, I might have had a complete nervous breakdown is I didn't see her where I left her a few hours ago."

"She regained consciousness around 0430 this morning, she was asking for you."

-Flashback-

The nurses jumped up from their station when they heard screaming coming from the Colonel's bed. They quickly checked her vitals, everything was physically alright wit her but they couldn't calm her down. She was shouting things in Farsi, English, and Russian all they really understood was, "Harm...Where's Harm?". They finally got her calmed down and told her that he'd be back in the morning.

-Flashback-

They rode the elevator down and Ham got off at the fourth floor, walked out, turned around nodded and mouthed "Thank you" to the nurse. Harm made his way down the hall and to Room 415, the nurse had given him the room number while they were in the elevator. Harm walked into the room and saw Mac laying asleep in her bed, there weren't as many machines hooked up to her as last night but she still looked so delicate and fragile. He sat down in the chair next to her bed and held her hand just as he had in the ICU. About an hour later the Admiral showed up and silently took in the sight his two best senior attorneys were in love. Sarah wasn't awake, but she must have been able to sense that he was near because she seemed to at ease and tranquil. Harm looked up from his silent vigil and noticed AJ standing in the corner.

"Sir." Harm stood.

"No need for formalities right now Harm."

"Can we talk outside for a moment?"

"Sure what's up?" AJ asked once they were out of earshot Harm relayed what happened a few hours ago at his apartment.

"Do you have the tape with you? I'll give it to the Detective with the DC police that's working on the case."

"Can you make a copy first sir?" Then he pulled out the small tape from his pocket and handed in to AJ.

"Yeah no problem. I'll go take care of this, you go back in there and take care of her. Don't worry well get the bastard that did this."

"Yes sir. I hope so..." Harm walked back into the room and AJ headed to the police department.

Still to come...

Webb and Gale?

Mystery man shows up, but is he that much of a mystery?

"Hey beautiful, you're awake..."
