She came to him.
Harvey turned over with a groan, his hand coming across his face clumsily to block the beaming sun from his hurting eyes. He fell back on the pillows behind him with a low grunt, his half naked body doing little to deter the strawberry blonde who was towering above him.
She cocked her head, silently appraising him as he squinted up at her, before she sat beside him on the bed. She wordlessly handed him a coffee and an aspirin. Black, just as he always liked it, and made in her own kitchen as he (for some odd reason) had always preferred. He sat up and gratefully took the coffee, took a swig, swallowed the pill and nodded his thanks. She gave him a half smile and handed him his crisp white business shirt and a pair of trousers. He took them and stood up, walking a few feet away to change while she opted to splay herself across his overpriced and overstuffed bed.
"What happened to Danielle?" He asked as he shrugged into his shirt.
"I called Denise a cab. I hope you didn't moan out 'Danielle' to her last night, don't you think that could damage her self esteem? I hear young women are at an all-time low." She quipped sarcastically, not surprised at all at her boss's forgetfulness.
"I don't think I called her Danielle, I'm pretty sure I moaned out 'Donna' as per usual." He winked, his hangover seemingly fading as he bantered with her secretary.
Neither were fazed by this seemingly odd encounter, seeing as they had done this countless times. Harvey had no idea that when he first gave Donna a spare key to his apartment, 7 years this January, that she would not only drop off his dry cleaning, but wake him up and send his one night stands out so he wouldn't have to make up excuses to get them to leave. They learned quickly learned that if Donna pretended to be his wife, that the women would practically run from his apartment.
Donna had always loved acting.
This time he came to her.
He walked out of his office, stopping by her desk and leaning on the counter as he waited for her to give him his coffee and his latest brief. She handed them to him, not glancing up from her mountain of work that she was working busily on. He cocked his eyebrow, not remembering having a lot of filing for her to do (he'd pawned it off to Mike days ago).
"Where'd all this come from?" He questioned.
"Norma's on vacation and Louis's temp is doing terribly. Since I'm done with my work, I decided to help her out." She replied patiently, sticking a post-it to her monitor. "Where's Mike? I thought you two were going to do some bonding or something today? Braiding each others hair and all that?"
Harvey smiled slightly at the thought of his plucky young associate. "I gave him the day off to visit his grandmother. Apparently he hasn't been to see her in a quite a while, and he wasn't focusing on the cases we'd been working on lately." He covered up his concern with a cool mask of indifference, passing off his care for the young man.
Donna chuckled lightly, a small smile on her lips. "Getting attached, are we?"
Harvey rolled his eyes. He walked away from her without replying and as he sat down at his desk and rifled through his papers he realized he had nothing left to do for the day, as Jessica had told him to take a few days between his latest case and a new one. He didn't bother pressing the speaker button on his phone, knowing that Donna was always listening to what was going on in his office.
"If I get Louis to lay off the temp, will you make me lunch?" He leaned in his chair, tossing an autographed baseball between his hands.
"I'll call Ray now."
Yes, Harvey was good at acting too.
So this is the first chapter in my new Harvey/Donna fanfiction, and there will be an actual plotline, this is just to introduce you to the pairing and to help me get started. There will be some Jenny/Mike/Rachel in here and don't worry, Louis will make an appearance. Hope you like it, and please review! See you next chapter. BTW I don't own Suits or any of the characters, although I wish I did.
