Harm's POV

"Woah, Trey slow down," I grabbed my eight month old from the floor, as he tried to scoot his way into the kitchen.

"What are you two up to?" Mac asked, exiting through the door our son was about to scoot through.

"We were about to head outside to see what Bud and the boys were up to," I replied, handing Trey over.

"Has he been scooting across the floor again?" Mac asked wiping dust off of his knees, "keep a hold of him please this outfit is new."

"Yes ma'am," I smiled taking him back smiling at the airplanes that decorated his outfit.

"Go, you goofball," she laughed motioning towards the door.

"-Happy Birthday, dear Jimmy, Happy Birthday to you!" Everyone sang as the two year old blew out his candles.

"Jimmy no," Harriet tried not to laugh as she pulled his hand out of the cake, Mac was quick to reach for Trey's hands as well. The Admiral grabbed the cake before anyone else could and moved to the other picnic table to cut the cake.

"I think it's safe to say that everyone wants some cake," Mic laughed as the cake started being passed out, Jimmy and Trey both using their hands to smear their cake everywhere but into their mouth.

"So much for keeping that outfit clean," Mac sighed from beside me, laying her head against my shoulder, passing on her own cake.

"You okay honey?" I asked a little surprised by the fact that she was passing up cake.

"Yeah, just tired," she replied not moving from the spot she had created on my shoulder.

"Okay, what aren't you telling me?" I asked, quietly not wanting to alert the attention of everyone else at the table.

"Nothing I just don't feel all that good right now," she sighed, I placed a hand on her back rubbing the small of her back in small circles.

"You want to go home?" I tried not to sound to worried or overprotective but she rarely got sick.

"I hate to ruin the party but I think that might be a good idea." She sat up slowly, excusing herself from the table as she picked up Trey as well.

"Thank you, Harriet but Sarah's not feeling well so we'll see you on Monday," I smiled after having explained to everyone why we were leaving.

"Just take care of her Harm," Chegwidden ordered, before turning back out to the yard.

"You want to tell me what's wrong?" I asked leaning in the doorway of our bedroom studying Mac.

"Nothing, where's Trey?"

"Taking a nap and something is wrong, something's been wrong for the past week," I sighed defeated, walking into our room and sitting across from her on the bed.

"I told you nothing is wrong, besides you're to busy to notice anyway," she snapped almost bitterly.

"Something is wrong. You don't ever snap at me and now suddenly you are, and when we've had problems in the past we sat down and worked them out now I'm trying to do that and you're pushing me away. Why is that?" I asked again.

"This is why," she almost yelled hurling something at my chest she had gotten out of her top night table drawer. I picked up the object from where it had landed on the bed, and flipped it over, clearly reading what it said.

"We're pregnant?" I asked shocked.

"No, we're not pregnant, I'm pregnant. Don't you get it Harm, Trey's only eight months old at this rate I'll never get a promotion, nor will I be able to continue working period," she started crying as she got to her feet pacing.

"Honey, I love you and I understand where you are coming from, but you wouldn't consider…" I trailed off looking up at her, where had stopped mid-stride to stare at me.

"Get out," she whispered quietly.

"Mac--"

"Get out!" She screamed, pointing to the door as tears continued down her face.

"Sarah--"

"Don't call me that, you think every time you call me it'll just make things better, that's not the way it works Harm! Now get out!" I understood the marine tone she was using and wasn't about to argue with her.

She slammed the bedroom door behind me, deciding it was probably better for me not to be at the house at all I took off heading for McMurphy's Tavern.
