Song: 'Fallin' for You by: Colbie Caillat

........

"I don't know
But I think I may be fallin' for you
Dropping so quickly
Maybe I should keep this to myself
Waiting 'til I know you better"

Sounds of laughter fill the night air, as you all sit around Macs fire pit, laughing at Jack's expense. You all had just gotten back from a mission, and as intense as it was you all couldn't help but laugh. Jack groaned as his supposed "friends" made fun of his run in with a unexpected enemy on the mission. "Guys I'm telling you that goat was evil man! Just look what it did to my head!" He slowly pulled the ice pack that was resting on his head, to show a huge swollen bump where his forehead meets his hairline. That just caused you all to laugh harder.

Bozer spoke up "Ok but what did you do to the goat to piss him off, he charged at you for a reason. Mac and y/n didn't have a problem with Mr.goat." You laughed, playing the image in your head of when that goat rammed his horns into Jack. "I thought he was adorable, he seemed perfectly innocent in my eyes. Until that is, the mean old scary man frightened him." You said, just to make Jack angrier, but it made everyone else laugh.

You then excused yourself to go get another beer, asking if anyone else wanted one. When they all said yes you rolled your eyes "Fine I'll bring a whole six pack." You laughed before walking into the kitchen. As you were reaching for the six pack you finally grabbed ahold of it and pulled it out of the fridge. When you went to fully stand upright you suddenly saw Riley standing there when you shut the door, making you jump. "Damn Riles! Don't do that shit!" She didn't say anything though, but kept a smirk on her face. So you arched an eyebrow in confusion "Um hi?"

Riley sauntered over to the other side of the kitchen island before taking a seat on a stool "I'm not blind you know. I know your secret." You just set the beers on the counter before leaning over the counter on your elbows. "What are you talking about?" She laughed, while shaking your head "Y/n come on! It's obvious! You like Mac! I heard you on the coms earlier and you were so flirting! Then just now you were out there sitting next to him and you kept touching his arm!"

You bit your lip, thinking to yourself dammit! "I don't know what your talking about. We are just friends." Trying to sound convincing but Riley shook her head "You may be just friends now but I bet if you told him how you feel, you'd be surprised by the answer you get back." Yours eyes widened slightly "Why what do you know?" Riley just smirked as she said in a condescending tone "I thought you didn't know what I was talking about, your just friends so it shouldn't matter what I know right?" You glared slightly at her mocking tone. That caused Riley to laugh and hold her hands up in surrender "Chill Chica I'm just messing you, but seriously tell him. If you wait for him to figure out your feelings you'll be waiting until hell freezes over. Men are oblivious." As you stood there and contemplated her words you heard Jack shout from the terrace "Y/N, RILEY! Where are our beers! We're thirsty." Riley rolled her eyes, grabbing the six pack "Calm down goat man we're coming!" Riley gave you a slight wink before walking off, leaving you standing there trying hard to process her words.

"I am trying, not to tell you
But I want to,
I'm scared of what you'll say
And so I'm hiding what I'm feeling
But I'm tired of holding this inside my head"

.....

Later that night everyone else had gone home, but you stayed behind to help Mac clean up all the beer bottles on his deck. "You didn't have to hang back to help me y/n, I can throw away beer bottles on my own. I'm a big boy." He joked. You smiled as you laughed, while nodding your head "I know. But I kinda like being out here in the quiet, ya know when Jack's not whining about a poor defenseless animal." Mac laughed at your comment "This is true."

Once you guys were in the kitchen, you threw all the bottles into the recycling bin before turning to Mac. He was standing there just smiling at you, he started to talk more about the mission but you weren't listening. You were distracted, he smelled so good, his hair was attractively messy, his shirt was now wrinkled from all the constant running around the mission entailed. You kept day dreaming until you heard your name being said a few times, it took the third time of hearing your name to look up at a very confused Mac. "Where'd you go?" He joked.

Feeling your cheeks flush you just shrugged "Um sorry I just was thinking about how hungry I am." You lied, or at least thought you were lying to him until your stomach made a loud growling noise. Now that you think of it you were starving. Mac laughed as he shook his head "Well we can't have that. I was gonna order a pizza, since the only thing in my fridge are some batteries and some expired orange juice. You want to stay and join me?" You laughed hearing what was in his fridge "Sure, but why are batteries in your fridge?" Mac put on a surprised face "You mean you don't do that? It helps them last longer! Duh!" You couldn't help but let out a giggle "Only you Mac."

An hour had passed and you were both sitting on his couch, eating the pizza while watching reruns of Friends. "I really do love this show, I've lost track of how many times I've seen each episode." Mac smiled at you "Well that's why I put it on, I remembered it was one of your favorites." Ironically the episode you guys were watching was when Ross found out Rachel had feelings for him. Thinking in your head that, that's just your luck. Wondering if that would be Macs reaction if you ever told him, would he be speechless or would you have something to say in return.

Once you guys had finished the pizza, the two of you continued to watch the episode you were on but it was late, almost midnight. You were so exhausted from the mission you felt your eyelids getting heavy. Mac felt your head on his shoulder and looked down at you, to see you had fallen asleep. He smiled at how peaceful you looked, before turning off the TV. He slowly stood up from the couch, cradling your head in his hand he laid you back onto the couch. Putting a pillow underneath your head, then going to find a blanket. He found the one you always took outside with you when you all sat around the fire pit during winter. It was your favorite, so he gently draped it over your body. Mac stood there for a minute, watching you sleep. Admiring your beauty as he let out a small sigh before softly saying the words,

"I have feelings for you."

"I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you"
