Why was he here? Ok he was invited, well more like ordered to come by Harriet, who made a very good arguement on why they all needed him there. Also, why Someone else needed him there...
#You know I never meant to see you again
and I only passed by as a friend
All this time I stayed out of sight
I started wondering why
You said you didn't need me in your life
I guess you were right
Well I never meant to cause you no pain
But it looks like I did it again
Now I, I wish ... #
It's true, She told him never to see her again, he left, and now, 2 years later here he is. He did wonder what happened to the love of his life after they went their separate ways. He could remember the day when she told him she was marrying someone else, and that she really wanted him to be happy for her. He was. Maybe. Well No he wasn't. He couldn't, and when he made that clear to Her well she didn't take it well. She came over that night and begged him not to mess this up for her. He had asked her what was he supposed to do, leave and forget? She said yes. Plain and Simple. Yes. So to make her happy, he requested a transfere, and moved to SanDiego.
This was a hell of a way to come back though.
He walked through the doors to find many people he knew personally, and some Vaugly from Pictures and stories. Once seated, his old friend, and former C/O Got up and spoke. He couldn't pay attention, he kept looking straight ahead at what he hoped never to be looking at. Silence fell as Admiral Chegwidden sat back down in his seat. Through the silence Harm could hear the rain.
Now I, I wish it would rain down, down on me
Yes I wish it would rain, rain down on me now
Rain. Water. It was suppose to clean you, God how he wanted to be clean, Clean of all his thoughts.
He was shook back to reality by his name being called out. Harriet had asked him to speak a little, at the end of the mass. He knew exactly what he was going to say, He was finally going to tell her what he had wanted to tell her for years.
# Though your hurt is gone, mineshanging on, inside
And I know it's eating me through every night and day
I'm just waiting on your sign
'Cos I know, I know I never meant to cause you no pain
And I realize I let you down
But I know in my heart of hearts
I know I'm never gonna hold you again #
By the end, he was crying, and so was everyone else who gathered. He had somehow made his way down, but Instead of Sitting back and staying for the rest of the funeral, he walked outside. No need for a coat, he wanted to get wet...
# Now I, I wish it would rain down, down on me
Yes I wish it would rain, rain down on me now #
Why? Why did she have to go on that stupid Mission? She knew it was dangerous, and yet, helping out her ex- Fianceé was more important! She went on the mission, and 2 days later, they recived word that there had been an explosion in the City, 275 dead, Including Mac. His Mac. Who he should have never left. He realises that now. Turning around. He looked at the church, which held friends mourning the loss of a good friend.
The rain was good, when it rained, no-one could see him cry, let his gaurd down for once, open up. How many times had Mac tried to do that with him? So many he couldn't count anymore. God how he missed her, all he wanted now was to hear her beautiful voice. Just so she could simply say...
" Hey Flyboy. Isn't it a little cold to be out in the rain with no coat on! "
Harm spun around to see someone he never expected to see again...
Ok! Please tell me what you think! Please! Also, I thought of making another chapter, just to follow up. What do you all think? Tell me in a review! Til then! Slán!
