Mac's Apartment

The night Harm said good-bye to everyone.

Mac is lying on her sofa, hugging a pillow to her chest crying, when someone knocked on her door. She gets up, quickly wiping the tears from her eyes. She opens the door to find Harm standing in her doorway with boxes of Chinese food in his arms, and as always a flyboy grin on his face. Harm hands her the food saying. "I thought you might be hungry." Then he walks past her into the apartment. "What are you doing here? Don't tell me it's because you thought I might be hungry." Mac says closing the door, and following him into the kitchen. Harm starts taking plates out of the cabinets. "I just wanted to spend some time with you before I leave." He says with a huge smile. "Shouldn't you be spending this time with Jordan?" Mac asks getting the silverware. "No. I'd rather spend this time with you more then anyone else. I think you are the person I am going to miss the most." Harm says walking over to Mac. "When I was making my decision about going back to flying, you were the only thing I could think of that I really didn't want to leave behind. I really wish I could have both." Putting his hand on her cheek, Harm continued. "I guess that's why I really came tonight. To tell you…I love you, and beg you to wait for me." Harm leaned in and kissed Mac softly on the lips. "It's only for three months. I want to be able to anyone who will listen that I have a beautiful marine waiting for me at home. Sarah?" Mac looked up for the first time since Harm kissed her. She had tears running down her face. "Oh, Harm I love you too. I will wait as long as you want." Harm then wrapped his arms around her and kissed her with all the passion he had been ignoring for three years. "What about Jordan?" Mac asked when they reluctantly came up for air. "We broke-up. She seems to think I'm in love with my best friend." Harm said laughing. Mac smiled and said, "So are you in love with your best friend, Commander?" Harm leaned down and kissed her on the cheek and whispered in her ear,"Madly."
