The Nutcracker Part One

Mac, Harriet, and Jen excitedly ran into the womens bathroom in the Jag office. That night they along with Harm, Bud, Sturgis, and Cresswell were headed to the Nutcracker Ballet. Harriet had gotten considerably cheap tickets for all of them and now their plan was to change at JAG then head over to the Center of Performing Art. Each woman had a bag with their nice dresses inside and each one chattered about the Nutcracker Ballet and how muchfun it was going to be.

"I have never been to the Nutcracker Ballet," Mac said, as she pulled her red spaghetti strap dress out of the bag. Jen and Harriet looked over at her amazed.

"You have never been to the Nutcracker before?" Harrietasked shocked.

"No," Mac answered. "My home life wasn't exactly great as a child and I had never got around to seeing it."

"Then tonight should be special for you, ma'am," Coats said. "Actually it will be special for the both of us. I haven't been to the Nutcracker since I was little."

"You two are soooooo crazy," Harriet said. "It's a tradition for Bud and me to go every year. Next year we'll be taking AJ but this year he's staying with his Aunt Mandy."

Jen pulled out her dark green dress, while Harriet pulled her cream colored dress out of the bag. They all complemented each other on their dresses and headed into different stalls. In seconds Harriet and Jen were dressed and looking at themselves in the mirror.

"You two can go on without me and tell them I'll be coming out soon," Mac said slippingher dress on.

"Ok," Harriet said. "We'll wait for you outside."

As soon as Mac said that and they walked out she wished she had told them to stay. Her dress was one that zipped up from the back and was hard to zip up by yourself.

'I can't go out with my back sticking out like this,' she thought. 'Maybe if I pull it like this…..I'll be able to zip it up.' But it didn't matter how hard she pulled it wouldn't budge. 'I hope it isn't stuck,' she thought worried.

About fifteen minutes went by and they were wondering where Mac was.

"She said she would be right out," Jen said.

"I'll go check on her," Harm said, leaving them standing by the door. Harm walked down the hall and stopped in front of the bathroom. "Mac?" He called.

"Harm?" Mac asked. 'Well he's not Harriet or Jen but I'm sure he wouldn't mind helping me.' "Harm can you come in here. I need help with something."

"Into the womens bathroom?" He asked unsure of what to do.

"Please Harm, I think my dress is stuck."

"Harm gulped as he entered the bathroom. 'It's not like I haven't been in the womens bathroom before,' he thought. 'Right?' Wrong, he had never been in the womens bathroom at all.

"You're dress is stuck?" He asked coming into the bathroom.

"I think so, it won't zip up from the back," she said coming out of the stall.

Her appearance took his breath away as she emerged from the stall. Her soft shinny hair fell loosely around her shoulders and her red dress was stunning.

"Harm," Mac said pulling him out of his thoughts. "I need help."

"Uhhhh…with what?" 'She looks so perfect,' he thought trying not to stare.

"With this," she said turning around, showing him the back of her dress. "The back won't zip up; I really hope it's not stuck."

"Hold still a sec," he answered, as he tried pulling on the zipper. It wouldn't budge.

Back in the hall way. A few minutes went by and they were still waiting.

"How about I go and check on them," Bud said, leaving the group to find out what was taking them soooooo long.

Bud reached the bathroom but he stopped when he heard their voices.

"Try jiggling it a little," Mac was saying from inside the bathroom.

"I'm trying," Harm replied. "Lean back against the wall, and I'll try pulling again."

'What's going on in there?' Bud though, as he continued to listen.

"Is it working?"

"No."

"Then pull harder."

Thump

'What was that?' Bud thought hearing the big thump on the floor. It turned out that Harm was pulling on the zipper soooooo hard that he lost his balance and tripped over Mac's bag sending him and her falling to the floor. Bud chose this time to enter the bathroom and stopped at the sight he saw.

"Uhhhh…am I interrupting something?"

"No," they both answered a little annoyed.

"It's not what it looks like," Mac said, as she tried to move off of Harm. "You see…my dress wouldn't zip up and-"

"No need to explain ma'am," Bud said.

"Thanks Bud," Harm said getting up off the floor.

"The groups waiting for us," Bud said. "Let's go," he added trying to hide the amused look on his face. After all it wasn't every day that one would see two senior officers spralled out on the floor in such a compromising situation.

End of chapter. I think I'm going to continue with this, but I just don't know where it's going to lead yet. So bare with me as a work out the details. This is just something that I thought up this morning and I'm not sure what path it's going to take. Sorry again for all the spelling errors or grammar errors. This hasn't been beta checked yet.

Please review nice reviews.
