Tiner knocked at the door to Harm's office before he entered.

"Sir, this package was delivered for you and the Colonel. Where do you want me to put it?"

Harm raised from his chair and took the package out of Tiner's hands. He bent his head to read who it was from, but he couldn't.

"Who sent it, Tiner? I can't read this here."

"Chloe Madison, sir."

Harm smiled and dismissed Tiner. Then he placed the package on his desk and opened it. To his surprise, he found another smaller box inside, and a note on top. He picked it up and began to read.

Hey Mac and Harm,

surprised to hear from me again? I just wanted to say thanks again for the great two weeks I had in DC. 
Mac, I know you are still somewhat mad for what Celia
and I did, but believe me, it was just for your best.
Harm, I am sorry Renee walked out on you for some job
in California, but as I said above, it was just for your best as well.
Now enjoy my little care package.

Love you guys,
Chloe


Harm smiled and placed the note down on his desk. Then he reached for the second box inside the larger box and pulled it out. He opened, and found two bags of Hershey Kisses inside Chloe had carefully prepared. On one bag, she had colored over the Hershey label and it now read 'Harm's Kisses - for Mac'. The other one read 'Mac's Kisses - for Harm'.

Harm broke out in loud laughter. Yeah, that sure was Chloe - always trying to get those two together. 

"What is so funny?" Mac asked as she entered the office. "Care to share?"

"Chloe sent us a care package. Catch!"

Harm threw the bag that read 'Harm's Kisses' in Mac's direction. She reached out and caught it. Looking a little irritated, she turned the bag over and read what Chloe had written on the front.

"Hershey Kisses?" she chuckled.

"Not Hershey Kisses. You have to read." Harm pointed at the bag. "Harm's Kisses."

"And what did you get there?"

Mac was trying to get a hold of the bag of chocolate Harm held in his hands, but he held it high above his head, and she couldn't reach it.

"Guess, Marine." 

"Knowing Chloe you must have a bag saying 'Mac's Kisses', right?"

Harm just smiled at her and carefully opened the bag he still held above his head. He pulled one tiny piece of chocolate out, unwrapped it and put it into his mouth.

"Thanks for your kiss, Mac." he teased as he chewed on the chocolate in his mouth.

"You know this is just one of Chloe's tactics to get us together, don't you think?"

"Uh huh. She left a note for us."

Harm finally lowered the bag and placed it on his desk before he reached for the note Chloe had sent along and handed it over to Mac. Mac giggled when she read it, but turned quiet when she read the back of the note. She looked up at Harm questioningly.

"What?" he asked, still chewing on the chocolate.

"Uhm, did you read the back of her letter?"

"No, why?"

Mac held the piece of paper up for Harm to read. His mouth dropped open when he read what Chloe had written on the back - obviously so they would not read it till after they had eaten the chocolate.


PS: For each kiss you eat you have to give a real one in return

 "Mac, I didn't mean..." Harm stammered and swallowed hard. 

Suddenly, a grin played across Mac's lips, "According to Chloe, you now owe me a kiss, sailor."

"Is this an order?" Harm asked shocked.

"Do I have to make it one?"

Harm slightly shook his head and lowered it to meet Mac's halfway. Their lips touched in a gentle and tender kiss that - though it only lasted for a couple of seconds - seemed to last for a lifetime for both Harm and Mac.

Harm cleared his throat after he had broken the kiss and awkwardly tucked at his uniform shirt to stop his hands from trembling. Mac still grinned at him mischievously. 

"I will come collect for each kiss you eat out of that bag, squid."

With that, Mac started to laugh and left a baffled Harm behind in his office.
