"Mac, c'mon. Get up. It's Christmas Morning." I say, ticking her shoulder.

"Harm, it's only 0956. I don't want to get up."

"Mac, it's Christmas morning."

"I don't care. I want to sleep in. Get me up in four minutes." Mac says, burying her head in her pillow.

"Alright fine. I'm going to put some coffee on." I say, getting up and throwing on a Naval Academy t-shirt. Mac and I are both attending Georgetown Law School and have pretty much moved in together. I still have my apartment but I like Mac's better. We still haven't gotten back to where we were years ago but we're working on it.

While Mac sleeps, I open the back door to her apartment and pick up the box that's out there.

I open the box and pull out Mac's Christmas present this year and smile before going back into the bedroom.

"Okay, sailor, it's been four minutes." I say, pulling off the comforter.

"No it hasn't." she says, her voice muffed by the pillow.

"Okay, Mac, you asked for it." I say as I put down her Christmas present.

"Harm! What the hell?" she says as the present starts licking her neck.

"Turn over and look." I say as I try not to laugh.

She rolls over to find the all-black puppy staring at her, "Harm! It's a puppy!"

"I know that."

"It's so cute." She says, sitting up and picking the puppy up.

"She's a Newfoundland. I know that you always wanted one."

"She's beautiful, Harm. Does she have a name yet?"

"Nope. I told the breeder that you would want to name her." I say, sitting down next to her on the bed.

"Shadow. Her name is Shadow." Mac declares, kissing the puppy's soft fur, "Thank you, Harm. Thank you so much."

"You're welcome." I say as I kiss her temple.

"A puppy!"

"You know, Harm, it's still Christmas." I say, pulling the blanket closer to me. Harm and I are stretched out in front of the fireplace, my head on his chest and he's playing with my hair.

"It's only 2105, Mac. Why did you forget to give me something?"

"Well, not quite forget but rather I can't give it to you."

"Well, when can you give it to me?"

"In about nine months." I say and sit up.

"Really. In nine months? Nine months will be September."

"Harm, c'mon. You have a degree from the Academy and you're a bright boy. You can figure out what's gonna happen in nine months."

I can the realization dawn as he smiles, "You mean you're…"

"The word is pregnant, Harm."

"As in you and I are gonna have a baby."

"You hit the target with supreme accuracy, Mr. Rabb." I say and smile. Shadow's curled up in front the fire, apparently asleep.

"You mean that we're going to be parents?"

"Yes, it does."

"Good Lord." He says, "I love you, Sarah."

"I love you too, Harm." I say as I lean down to kiss him.

"Parents…I can't believe it."

Delivery Room

Georgetown University Hospital

Georgetown

"Harm! What's the news?" my mother calls as she spots me walking out of the delivery room.

"Mom, you are now the proud grandmother of Lucia Kirsten Rabb and Harmon David Rabb, the third."

"Oh, Harm, what wonderful names. How's Mac doing?"

"She fine but she said to tell that the babies will be called David and Lucy." I say. Mac was determined to use Lucy, which the name of her favorite aunt.

"Congratulations, Harm." Frank says as we shake hands.

"I can't believe I have great-grandchildren, Harmon!" Gram says as she hugs me.

"I can't believe I'm a father, Grams." I say as I smile at her.

"Harm, you are going to call Mac's parents. They have a right to know that they have grandchildren."

"Mac doesn't want t and I have to respect her wishes."

"If that's what Mac wants, then you can fight her on it." Mom says, "Now, we can I see my grandchildren?"

"As soon as they are in the nursery. They're bringing Mac to a private room right now."

"Go, be with Mac. Tell we love her."

"I will." I say as I kiss Mom's cheek, shake Frank's hand and hug Grams."

I walk into Mac's room to find her asleep and smile as I kiss her cheek. I love this woman so much. She means everything to me.

The Rose Garden Restaurant

Old Alexandria, Virginia

As the waiter sets down pieces of chocolate cake for Harm and me, I smile happily over at him. It's been awhile since we have been out without the kids. It's really hard to get out with two year old twins! "Thank you so much. This has been one of my best birthdays ever."

"I'm glad that you are having a good time. You still haven't opened your presents." He says, gesturing down at the brightly wrapped package that sits at my feet.

"I was going to wait for us to go for a stroll in the garden."

"No, you have to open this one now. The other one has to wait for when we do go outside."

I laugh and finish the last bite of my cake. Pushing my plate back, I lift the present onto my lap. Ripping the paper, I gasp when I find a framed copy of my jurice doctrine and also of my Naval Justice School certification, "Harm, how in world did you get this?"
"They arrived at our house before you could get the mail. I snatched them and didn't tell you. Congratulations, Sarah."

I smile at him before putting them back in the box, "Shall we take our walk now?"

He smiles as he helps me up and together, we head out to the lighted rose garden. Harm leads me into a secluded corner and motions for me to sit down on the bench. I gently place my certificates next to me and gasp when he kneels down on one knee and pulls out a small velvet box, which holds my engagement ring from when we were engaged all those years ago, "Sarah, I know that we have had our ups and our downs, but love is the one thing in our lives that will never change. No matter which ship you are on or which base I'm stationed at, our love will remain true and strong. Sarah, I fell in love with you when I first saw you in your uniform at the Academy, the goggles pulled down over your beautiful brown eyes. Like that song, you had me from hello. You are my one true friend, the part that makes me whole, and the only one who knows me better than I know myself. I love you, flygirl. Sarah Catherine Mackenzie, will you marry me?"

I gasp and feel the tears running down my cheeks, "I love you, Harmon Rabb and yes, I will marry you."

He smiles and slips the ring onto my hand before kissing me, "I love you," Just then a song comes on over the speakers, "May I have this dance?" he asks.

"I would be honored." I say as I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him.

I come here today, I'm kind of nervous

You know how words get in my way

It should come easy, I've been rehearsing

I don't know why I'm so afraid

Will you marry me?

Put our life and love together

Will you stay with me?

For always and forever

On bended knee, would you take this ring

Will you marry me, please?
Will you marry me?

As we sway to the music, I recognize the voice that's singing the song. It's Harm! "Harm, are you singing?"

He smiles, "Yeah. I went to one of those places where you can record your voice and then asked the restaurant to play it for us."

"Thank you, it's wonderful." I say as I kiss him.

"Listen," he says as he starts singing along with the music.

To be with you is what I live for

But at this moment I confess

Though I love you, God knows I love you

Deep down inside I'm scared to death

Will you marry me?

Put our life and love together

Will you stay with me?

For always and forever

On bended knee, would you take this ring

Will you marry me, please?
Will you marry me?

On bended knee, would you take this ring

Will you marry me, please?
Will you marry me?

It has been a long and confusing journey but I can take comfort that nothing, not even death, will tear Harm and me apart.

"Hey Harm." I say as I open up an envelope.

"Yeah, Mac?" he says from the computer where he's working on his latest case.

"You interested in going to a reunion?"
