Hey guys:) so this story is set right after Donna gets fired for shredding the document in the McKernon Motors case. (2x5)
"Donna!" Harvey chased after the angry red head. "Donna stop!" She paid no attention to him, and he didn't blame her. She got fired, and he didn't do anything to stop it. She shouldn't have shredded that document, but he knew it wasn't her fault. He had shown up at her apartment in an attempt to talk, but was obvious that she didn't want to see him.
Donna continued down the street, away from Harvey. She didn't want to see him. She didn't want anything to do with him. "Donna, I'm serious! I need to talk to you!" Harvey was yelling now. She hurried away from him, not wanting to be caught in an awkward and unneeded confrontation. She turned her head back as she walked. "Leave me alone Harvey, I'm serious." He ignored her protest and kept following her. "I don't want to see you right now, and if you don't stop following me, I'm going to call the cops."
That stopped him dead in his tracks. "You wouldn't." He shook his head in disbelief. "Come on, Donna. You know I'm sorry. I wish I could have done something but it would have been impossible. We both would have lost our jobs."
This infuriated Donna. "Oh so the only thing that mattered is that you kept your job? The great Harvey Specter is still working at Pearson Hardman." Tears welled in her eyes. "What about me? What about my job? And my life? What about the fact that I spent over a decade helping you, and being there for you, and making sure you had everything you needed, without asking for anything in return? What about our friendship?" She wiped her eyes before tears could begin to fall. "How could you just throw that out the window?"
Harvey sighed as he finally caught up to her. "You know that I'm sorry Donna. And I didn't throw it out the window, okay? Everything is gonna go back to normal soon." He knew it was a lame apology, but this was the first time he had seen her in three weeks. He didn't care about anything else, just that he was with her and that he was able to talk to her. He looked into her eyes, pleading that everything would be okay, that she would be okay. She looked at him for a moment. The idea of forgiveness crossed her mind for a split second. Then her eyes glazed over with anger.
"Right, and I'm just supposed to listen to you? Just supposed to wait here while you save the day?" She wiped her eyes again. "You know what, Harvey? You can take your sorry and shove it up your ass." She hurried away from him, no longer caring about the tears falling from her eyes.
She kept her head down, not wanting to pay attention to anything around her. Why was he affecting her so much? She was Donna. She didn't need anything or anybody, and she certainly didn't need Harvey Specter. But a small part of her mind knew that wasn't true. She had listened to his voicemails on repeat, relishing at the sound of his voice. She had read his texts over and over, as if they held a different message each time.
All Donna wanted was to turn around and run into his arms. To cry into his shoulder and have him assure her that everything would be alright. She could tell that Harvey was still standing there, watching her, unsure of what to do. No matter how much she wanted to, she couldn't.
She continued down the street in a hurry, not focusing on the outside world. Everything was spinning, and Donna could feel her entire world turning upside down. 'I just have to make it to the restaurant around the corner. Then I can wait there until he leaves.'
She took a couple steps down the street when she heard his voice, filled with fear and concern. "Donna watch out—"
And then everything went black.
