Mac's Office

Mac sits at her desk surrounded by case files. Looking at her over crowed desk, she lets out an exasperated sign and puts her head in her hands.

' It's only Monday and I'm already swamped. I've only been here for an hour, God I'd hate to see what Harm's desk is like she thought.'

At the thought of Harm's name, Mac recalls her conversation with a pretty blonde Lieutenant Simms and Lieutenant Carolyn Imes fifteen minutes earlier.

Thinking back...

JAG Headquarters
Falls Church, Virginia
Monday 8:00am (EST)
Mac's Office

"Excuse me ma'am?"
"Yes Harriet" Mac mumbles in between a mouthful of Chocolate Cake "can I help you?"
"Permission to speak freely ma'am?"
"Go a head Lt"
"You look, well umm, distracted ma'am. Is there anything wrong?"
"No, I'm fine, but I just can't seem to concentrate and on top of that my desk is piled up like Mount Everest."
"Do you need any help ma'am?"
"No thanks Lt "
"So what seems to be the cause of your lack of concentration?"
"I don't know"
"Would it have anything to do with your handsome partner?"
"Harriet"
"What? Don't you think he's handsome?"
"I didn't say that"
"Well...."
"You know as well as I do that Harm is a very attractive man "
"So you do think he's handsome"
"Now I didn't say that Harriet. I said he was attractive"
"Very attractive"
"Ok very attractive"
"You know he's handsome, has a great body, and a good six, exactly the man you need.
"HARRIET"

At that moment Carolyn walks by. Hearing the women's conversation, stops, turns and goes into Mac's office intrigued.

"Whose got a good six?"
Both women turn at Carolyn's voice.
"Harm's six. Mac and I were just discussing how Harm is handsome, has a great body and a good six."
"No Harriet you were discussing those things with me, Mac interjects"
"I also told her that Harm is exactly the man she needs"
"Yeah, I agree with you there Harriet" Carolyn pipes up.
"Guys"
"What?" both women ask.
"You must admit though that his six is to die for. I've found my self looking at it a couple of times," Carolyn admits.
"Mmm Hmm I've got a good look at it a couple of times myself" Harriet replies.
Mac is silent and not wanting to join in the conversation taking place.
"Earth to Mac?"
"Arr What"
"Of course she's looked at his six Harriet. But I'm certain that it hasn't just been once or twice like we have" Carolyn teases.
"Carolyn"
"Just pointing out facts"
"Ok, ok I have looked at his six but as his partner it's by job."
Both Women look at her with yeah right that's only your excuse looks on their faces. Mac looks at the women and blushes knowing that they know it's only an excuse. Harriet and Carolyn burst out laughing at Mac's bright red face and soon Mac joins in admitting to defeat.

Out in the bullpen Harm, Bud and Gunny watch the three women with curiosity.
"I wonder what they're talking about"
"Probably girl stuff commander" Bud replies.
At that moment Tiner walks by the three men and sees their curiosity.
"Excuse me Commander, Lieutenant, gunny, what seems to be bothering you?"
Bud points to the three women who are laughing"
"Do you know anything Tiner?" Gunny asks
"Well, before when I walked past the Colonels office I heard her, Lt Simms and Lt Imes mention something like Partner......good six .......attractive.
The four men stood in puzzlement, trying to work out what those three words meant.

Present

Monday 8:20am (EST)
Mac's Office

'Well Mac thought, this isn't going to get me anywhere.' Standing Mac heads to the breakroom mug in hand but is stopped by Tiner who tells her that there is a meeting in the conference room in 10 minutes.
"Thanks Tiner"
"Ma'am"
Mac continues to the breakroom for her third cup of coffee. As she enters the breakroom she sees Harm looking through the fridge.
"Hungry Sailor"
"Yes"
"What are you looking for"
"This piece of cake I had in here"
"Chocolate cake"
"Yeah, have you seen it?"
'Ohh no, I ate harms cake. How am I gonna tell him?'
"Umm, you could say that"
"Where is it?"
Harm stands from crouching and turns to look at Mac who has a guilty look on her face.
"Mac"
"Well I kinda ate it"
"You kinda ate it? How can you kinda eat it? It's I ate it or I didn't eat it"
"Ok I ate it. I was really hungry and it looked so delicious and well after I saw my caseload it was really tempting. I'm so sorry harm"
"Mac"
"Tick Tac" Mac offers
"Yes, part payment"
"But you better start running thought cuz you have a very hungry sailor that was just deprived from his piece of chocolate cake from a certain marine"
"No problem"
Mac exits the breakroom
'Where can I go, where can I go. Ohh I know the women's bathroom. Harms most likely not to follow me in there.'
Mac heads for the women's bathroom. Harm exits the breakroom, spots Mac and follows her. Harm obvious to Macs destination quickens his pace making the distance between them only footsteps. With two big steps Harm catches Mac as she pushes a door open. Harm follows Mac in the door and for the first time realises that it's the women's toilets, he turns a bright scarlet and with an embarrassed look on his face mumbles "This is better than I thought Mac thanks"
"Anytime Harm"
Harm turns quickly basically running out of the toilets and comes face to face with the Admiral.
"Commander"
"Sir"
Stumbling with his words, Harm tries to explain.
"Just heading to the conference room sir"
"I see, just making a detour Commander"
"Something like that"
"Ok lets go"
"Yes sir"
Harm breathes a sign of relief and follows the Admiral.
