In Their Own Words - Full Engagement
Lieutenant Commander Harmon Rabb, Jr.
By Jen Turner (jugrox@prodigy.net)
Well, I can now say I've spent the night with a beautiful woman and nothing happened. Mom would be proud of me. Unfortunately, that was the only good thing to come of the weekend.
No, I take that back, that's not entirely true. I know more about Mac than I used to. I'm sure she wouldn't have told me any of that stuff about Eddie if she hadn't been almost raped and stabbed that guy.
The thought of him with his hands on her, it still sends shivers down my spine. I know she's a Marine and that she can take care of herself, but I still feel like it's my place to protect her. It is my place to protect her. Especially since I was stupid enough to forget to check the fuel line. That's one of the first things they teach about preflight checklists and I forgot it.
I guess I owe Larry, Darryl, and Darryl something. Mac and are closer because of them. I haven't opened up about my dad and my crash like that in a long time. I know it took courage for her to tell me the things that she did, just like it took courage for me to open up to her. There is something between us, I just hope that one day we get a chance to explore whatever it is. But, we're still so new to each other and this relationship that it seems fruitless to try and explore it now. Maybe after we get to know one another better.
Maybe another flying trip. Minus psychotic poachers and gunshot wounds. God, she scared me to death. I thought I was going to lose her. Losing her would be like losing Diane all over again., not just because of the physical resemblance. I don't think I can go through that again.
