Chapter 3: The Bet

Disclaimer: same old same old.

Here is Chapter 3.

Harm's Office.

"Mac, take it easy." Harm says sitting up.

"Take it easy? You want me to.... You know what fine you go out with Jac-." Harm who jumps in quickly cuts off Mac's sentence.

"I am not going on a date with her Mac!" Harm says firmly.

"Sorry. To 'protect' her. Just in case her brother is a psycho killer." Mac says raising her eyebrows and smiling sarcastically.

"Mac, there's no need to go insane, I have a perfectly wonderful girlfriend that I have no problems with what so ever." Harm says sucking up and giving her "puppy" eyes.

"Harm you don't understand. Just forget it. I'll go show the new guy around town tonight then." Mac says shrugging.

"Wait wait wait. I don't think so." Harm states standing up.

"Why not? You can go with Jackie and protect her from her made up psycho brother and I will go a new officer around D.C." Mac says smiling.

"Mac...I don't want you alone with him." Harm states walking around his desk to stand in front of her.

"Why? You don't trust me?" Mac says smirking.

"Hey Harm...am I interrupting something?" Jackie asks looking back and forth from Harm to Mac.

"Yes" "No." Harm and Mac say in unison.

"Well uh...can you help me with something right quick?" Jackie asks rubbing the back of her neck.

"Uh well..." Harm starts.

"It's okay Harm I have to go talk to the new Marine. I'll talk to you later Harm." Mac says giving Harm a quick kiss on the lips.

"Uh wait. Yeah okay bye." Harm says sighing.

Once Mac is gone, Jackie comes further into his office.

"What can I help you with Commander?" Harm asks sitting back down in his chair.

"Well I don't need you to come with me to meet my brother he can't make it." Jackie answers after wards letting out a sigh.

"I'm sorry." Harm apologizes while leaning back in his chair.

"Yeah me too, I made reservations and they were hard to get." Jackie says rubbing her forehead. "Oh well how about this. We keep those reservations and just go out to dinner." Harm suggests crossing his arms.

"Sure why not. That would be fun. Are you sure Mac won't mind?" Jackie asks excited.

"I know she will but she will be otherwise occupied." Harm states laughing.

--Harm's Apartment—

"Coming!" Harm yells putting on his flight jacket.

"Hey." Mac says after Harm opens the door.

"Hey, come in." Harm says moving out of the way.

"Thank you." Mac says moving past Harm.

"So what brings you here? I thought you were going out with the new guy." Harm asks closing the door and walking over to her.

"Ha. I do, I was just coming by first to say hi, you were on the way." Mac states laughing.

"Really? Where are you taking him?" Harm questions folding his arms over his chest.

"To that restaurant down the street from here." Mac states taking a seat in his couch.

"Really, so are we." Harm says with a quick laugh.

"Well then, I guess I can't sneak around behind your back then." Mac teases while biting down on her lower lip trying to refrain from laughing.

"Very funny Marine, yeah her brother cancelled but I said hell why not just keep the reservations you know?" Harm says nervously.

"Oh." Mac says looking away from him.

"Maccc." Harm says walking over to her.

"No it's fine." Mac says waving him off.

"Are you sure...I can cancel if you want." Harm suggests as she stands up.

"No it's fine...why don't I just drive you down there." Mac says with a brief smile.

"Alright." Harm says nodding.

"Harm I have to tell you something about Jackie--." Mac starts but Harm cuts her off.

"Mac it's okay...I love you don't worry about it." Harm says cockily

"Come on flyboy." Mac says walking past him to the door.

"Wait...first I need to do something..." Harm says walking towards her.

"And what would that b-." Harm's lips gently against hers cut off Mac's sentence.

Mac smiles afterwards.

"Let's go Marine...people are waiting for us." Harm says reaching for her hand.

'Oh boy am I gonna be in trouble when he finds out' Mac thinks as she walks out the door with him.

To be continued...
