Author Note: So I'm giving you another ONE SHOT. This starts the Sunday after the presidents telling her about the Secretary of State Position.

Disclaimer:I don't own Madam Secretary or the plot.

I'm feeling panicked and rushed and hurried!
I'm feeling outmaneuvered and outclassed,
But I'm so happy
I can't get worried
About this singular impression--
I've got a singular impression
Things are moving too fast!

-Sunday Afternoon-

Henry was sitting with Elizabeth in the office at the University of Virginia.

"Elizabeth and Henry, I understand you are leaving us." Dean Morgan spoke as he entered.

"That is correct, I got another job that I can't refuse." Elizabeth smiled."Thank you for meeting with us."

"The location is too far away to work here." Henry told him.

"What is this job? May I ask?" He asked.

"I will be succeding The late Vincent Marsh." Elizabeth calmly spoke. "The President Dalton would not take no for an answer." Elizabeth chuckled recalling the moment.

"Oh of course, I forgot you used to work closely with President Dalton when you worked together in the CIA." Morgan nodded.

"I will be sad to see you guys go, because you two are among my top professors." Morgan shook hands with them. " I guess you will be leaving soon?"

"Yes, we are starting to make the move already, and we will finish this week of school." Henry held his wife's hand as they went home.

"I wonder how your cult is going to feel about you leaving." Elizabeth smiled at her man.

"Probably upset." The religions professor kissed his wife.

~Henry's Classroom~

"Before we start class today, I have some news." He spoke to his group of girls that were taking his class. "I will be moving to Washington D.C at the end of this week. So I will be leaving and you will have a new teacher by the name of Samantha Hagery." The girls sighed. "Don't worry she is a fantastic teacher."

"Why are you leaving?" Mallory asked who is always the first to speak up.

"My wife Professor Elizabeth McCord has taken a new job. We are moving to where her job is." Henry responded.
