Hi all, I know it's been a long time since I've updated, but I have gone though a postgraduate degree this past year and I'm in full time work, which has left me very little time to write. However, I have not forgotten this story. I hope you read this chapter and enjoy :)


The whole MASH gang showed up at Margaret's place together. They all knew she needed their support right now, after all, her life had just changed in a dramatic way.

Klinger knocked on Margaret's door and what they saw when the door was opened surprised most of them, except the Colonel of course. Hawkeye answered the door while hugging Margaret at the waist like it was the most natural thing in the world. Before anyone could say anything, Margaret invited them all in.

"Before we all head out to celebrate, Hawkeye and I want to talk to you all."

Everyone looked around her Margaret's home for a place to sit and, when they were all seated, Margaret began to talk.

"When Hawkeye arrived to see me when this whole court martial fiasco started, we realised that we had feelings for each other, feelings that weren't going away. However, because of the stress I was under, Hawkeye and I decided to be friends, take things slow and then figure out what we wanted."

While Margaret talked, Hawkeye smiled at her and never let her go.

"After I was found not guilty, Hawkeye and I had a little talk and have decided to give us a try – we're officially a couple".

Margaret and Hawkeye couldn't contain their smiling faces from everyone. They were finally happy.

Everyone gathered around, and the first person to speak was the Colonel.

"I'm so happy you both finally realised what I knew all along – that you are in love. Congratulations to both of you."

Hawkeye and Margaret hugged the Colonel, with Margaret crying a little at the same time.

Everyone else then took turns congratulating the happy couple.

After all the excitement died down a little, Hawkeye looked at every one of the MASH crowd and spoke.

"Since you are all here, I'd like to do a little something with all of you as witnesses."

Hawkeye looked at Margaret and got down on one knee. Margaret knew what was coming, but still could not believe it.

"Margaret. I love you with all my heart. I lost contact with you for some time and I never want to go through that again. I want to live the rest of my life with you and grow old with you. Will you be crazy enough to marry me and make me the happiest man alive?"

Margaret gave a huge grin and hugged Hawkeye. "Of course I'll marry you!"
