Author's Note: This takes place after Season 8; I know Mac is missing, but for the sake of my story, Harm found her and Webb. Mac will be getting drunk in this story, I am aware that she used to be an alcoholic and that she has been sober for a long time.
Chapter 7: An Early Arrival and a Shooting
Mac was the happiest she had ever been. She was with the man she loved and was planning on getting married. It had been four months since the proposal. Mac was currently on maternity leave. The babies were fine and Mac was ready to have them. Harm had been great through out the last couple of months.
Harm walked through the door, "Hey hon, sorry I'm late." He placed a kiss on her forehead, "I'll be ready in ten minutes." With that said Mac watched him leave for the bedroom.
Mac had to admit it was easier then she thought to be with Harm, so many things had stood in the way. All the sudden her phone rang, "Hi Harriett. Do not worry; we will be there soon. Harm was running late."
A few minutes later Harm and Mac were on their way to the restaurant. Mac grabbed Harms free hand, "I was thinking of baby names. We do need to pick some soon. I have finally decided on Jacqueline Marie for our girl. What about you any thoughts about our boy?"
Harm looked at Mac in truth he had really thought about it. He kept pushing it off, "I have a few ideas, but none really stick out yet. Look I promise I will have a name by the time our boy is born."
Mac sighed, "You keep saying that Harm. You said you would have a name picked out by last month. We cannot keep calling him 'it' or 'boy'. He needs a name and we agreed I would pick our girls name and you would pick the boys name. I'm starting to think you don't want these babies." It was probably the hormones talking, but Mac was frustrated with harm.
"I will. I will have a name. Trust me." That is when they pulled up to the restaurant. Mac had been right. Harm was having second thoughts about the children, but what first time parent did not.
Harm helped Mac out of the car and walked toward the front door, when something happened that no one saw coming. It was so fast that no one knew what exactly had happened. All Harm knew was he was lying on the floor next to Mac. Bud, Harriett and the Admiral were standing over them. All Harm knew was he was in pain.
"Mac is she okay?" Harm whispered. Bud was saying something, but he could not understand. The next thing Harm knew was his world turned black.
Mac was not okay, she was screaming, "My babies, please someone help my babies." There were tears in her eyes as she clutched her stomach in pain. Mac had no idea what happened. She looked over at harm and saw him lying lifeless, "Harm!!! Talk to me please?"
"Shhh Mac, Harm is okay. Bud says he is breathing. Where is the ambulance?" Harriett was holding Mac in her arms trying to sooth her. Harriett kept looking over at Bud and the Admiral. She had no idea what to tell Mac about Harm or her babies, "It's okay. Everything is going to be all right, you just hang in there."
Finally two ambulances appeared to take Mac and Harm to the hospital. As the rolled through the emergency room blackness claimed Mac's world.
"What happened? How many months pregnant is she?" The doctor was talking to the paramedics and Harriett was whispering encouraging words in Macs ear.
The paramedic responded, "There was a drive by outside the restaurants. Five people were shot. According to her friends, she is eight month pregnant. Do you think the bullets hit the babies? She is having twins."
"I hope not, either way the babies are coming out tonight."
