Summary- How ‘Automatic For The People’ should’ve been continued when
you saw it through the eye of a shipper…
Author’s Notes-
1. The plan is it to revisit every episode from season 10. However, this
series doesn’t have any strict rule. Sometimes it may be a follow-up,
sometimes it could be a changed scene, or even a change to the entire episode.
And if that doesn’t work we could always do a ‘missing scene’-story.
This means the length of the story is based on the way we want to ‘handle’
the revisit. But don’t worry…we plan to use more than 150 words!!!
2. Thanks to (Saint) Michi for beta-ing this one. You rock my socks, girl!!
English is not any of our first languages. (I speak Ohio-Florida with a touch
of Southern.)
3. Since this series will deal with a just aired episode, it means that we
risk having a FF that might seem like someone else’s. There’s hope that
our ideas are unique, but should that not be the case we apologize and swear
to our god and the chocolate that we did not know it or do it on purpose.
4. Feedback is always welcome.

"Hey." Mac smiled as she opened her front door.
Harm smiled back and held up a bag from Coldstone Creamery. "Up for some
ice cream?"
Mac laughed and moved from the door, so he could walk in. "Do you have to
ask?"
"Thought I would try something different. I got you the German Chocolate
Cake with extra coconut."
"My favorite," Mac said as she closed the door.
Harm sat down on the couch and pulled two plastic spoons out of the bag along
with the two containers. He handed Mac hers and opened his. "Cake Batter
for me."
Mac sat down next to him and curled her legs underneath her as she dug into
the chocolate goodness. "So how was your trip?"
"Okay. How did your re-qualification go?"
"I’m still ranked expert and so is the General," Mac told Harm.
Harm gave her an odd look. "The General needed to take his
re-qualifications?"
"No, he just wanted some friendly competition."
Harm bit back a chuckle. "Did he get a friendly competition?"
"Yeah, and for the record he’s not a poor loser."
Harm howled with laugher. "You’re a better shooter than he is?"
"Yep." Mac grinned with personal satisfaction. "I’m sure he
scored well, just not as well as I did."
"You’re so modest." Harm grinned.
Mac laughed and stole a spoonful of Harm’s ice cream as he did the same to
hers. They spent the next few minutes laughing about the last few days and Mac
caught Harm up on all the gossip.
"Bud hit someone with a chair?"
"Yeah, it was an accident and Sturgis had a lot of fun trying to find out
what happened. He said when the General first brought up the incident, he
thought the General was talking about you," Mac said, finishing off her
ice cream.
Harm gazed at her with minor confusion. "Why would Sturgis think the
General was talking about me?"
"Something about being a lose cannon and can’t follow directions."
Harm shrugged. "Well, at least he didn’t say that I make people fall in
love with me."
Mac gave him a very confused look. "What?"
"Nothing," Harm quickly said and hoped Mac would drop it.
"Oh no, not nothing. Where did that come from?" Mac asked, finding
herself very interested in his thoughts
Harm sighed a heavy breath. "Megan Ransford. Her father was killed in the
crash. She told me that I make people fall in love with me."
"Hmmm," was all Mac said as she turned her attention to the empty
ice cream containers on the coffee table.
Harm noticed the change in her behavior and he could have kicked himself for
mentioning it. But now that the cat was out of the bag he decided to get
Mac’s thoughts. "Well, what do you think?"
"About what?"
"Do I make people fall in love with me?"
Mac shrugged and stood up. "I’m not sure. Why don’t you call Megan
and talk to her about it?"
Before Harm could say anything else, Mac picked up the empty containers and
walked into the kitchen. Harm followed her and cornered her in the kitchen as
she leaned against the counter top, facing the sink. She heard his footsteps
and heard him breathing. Mac slowly turned around, getting her anger inside
her under control. She wasn’t mad at Harm, but at herself.
"I’m sorry, Harm. I shouldn’t have said that," Mac apologized.
Harm took a step closer to her and took her hands into his. "She was nice,
but her hair was a little too red for my taste." Mac gave him an odd look
and he continued. "She asked me if my girl was a brunette and I told her
that she’s not my girl yet."
Mac continued looking at Harm like he had grown a third head and her temper
was starting to raise as she thought of Alicia Montes. She was a brunette.
Harm gave her hands a squeeze and got Mac’s attention again.
"I know this might not be the right way, but would you be willing to go
out tomorrow night and see if we can be boyfriend/girlfriend?"
Mac stared at Harm and his words sunk in. Her anger left her and it was
replaced with happiness and a slight giddiness. She smiled and simply said,
"Yes."
