Mac's office

JAG HQ

Mac hadn't been feeling good all morning long. She had a headache and felt like she was going to be sick. All of a sudden, a wave of nausea overcame Mac and she got up to open the door. She ran all the way to the bathroom, opened a stall door and got sick in the toilet.

Harm looked up and had seen Mac run to the bathroom.

"Harriet, would you please check on the Colonel."

"Yes sir." Harriet smiled to herself. She knew all about their current relationship. Hell she had even followed them. She saw them at Rosarios and in Harm's SUV. It was good that Harm was worried about Mac, Harriet thought to herself.

Harriet opened the ladies bathroom door to see Mac at the sinks, washing her hands.

"Ma'am, are you feeling okay?" a very worried Harriet asked her.

"Yes, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?"

"Well the Commander sent me in here to see if you are okay. I guess he's worried. Are you okay?"

"Harriet, follow me." Mac walked out of the ladies bathroom and directly into the bullpen. She then walked into her office. Harriet followed suit.

"Close the door behind you and have a seat." Mac said as Harriet walked in. Harriet did as she was instructed to do and then sat down.

"Now, what I am about to tell you, you cannot tell anyone else, including Bud. That is an order. Did I make myself clear?"

:"Crystal ma'am."

"Good and drop the ma'am for right now. You are one of my closest friends and I think you should know something."

"I'm listening."

Mac proceeded to tell Harriet about everything that happened that night with Harm. How they had dinner together, the movie they watched, how Harm had told her his feelings for her. How they danced to 'their song.' She also told her that she had told Harm her feelings for him and that they woke up next to each other.

"We have been together ever since! Hell I've practically moved in with him! We are so happy right now. We just decided to keep the lid on the relationship. And now I think I might be pregnant!"

"What?" Harriet said excitedly.

"Well I have to go to the hospital to get the test done. Say why don't you go with me? We can go during our lunch break."

"I'd love to! Oh Mac I'm so happy for the both of you!"

Bethesda Naval Hospital

"Hi. I'm Dr. Fisher. What seems to be wrong with you?"

"Well Doctor,  I believe that I am pregnant and I wan to know if I really am."

"If you would come with me, we can run some tests and see if you are pregnant."
