Lately I really have been having inspiration to write Suits fics. On the plus side I am on break from Uni For two weeks after this week so I should be able to update all my stories quicker.

Mike Ross lives a complicated life he is working at one of the best law firms in the city without actually having a law degree. He spends his life working visiting his grandmother and razing his 5 year old daughter all by himself both of these tasks by themselves are hard but put them together and they are almost impossible.
Mike gets up at 5:30 am like he aims to every morning he has a shower, quickly eats breakfast and gets dressed for work before making his daughters lunch and breakfast before heading into his daughters room to wake her up.
"Kensi time to get up." Mike says to his daughter turning on the light.
"I'm up Daddy." Kensi tells her father. Kensi is about average height for her age and looks a lot like her father though for Mike every time he looks at his daughter he Is reminded of her mother as they have the exact same blue eyes, though in almost every other way she has taken after he father from her long straight dirty blond hair that goes below her shoulders to his memory though she did inherit her mother stubbornness as well as her kindness and ability to see the good in people.
"What do you want to wear today?" Mike asks walking over to his daughter's dresser draws.
"My purple hoddie." Kensi tells her father walking over to stand next to her father giving him his good morning hug.
"Ok and top? Pants?" Mike asks his daughter pulling out her hoddie.
"My dark blue jeans and light pink long sleave top." Kensi tells her dad.
"Done." Mike says smiling at his daughter as he puts the clothes on her bed. "Get changed and then come out to breakfast, and don't forget your bag." Mike tells her daughter.
"Yes Daddy." Kensi tells her father.
Mike heads back out to the living area while he collects the paper work he needs "Daddy I need help." Mike hears his daughter say.
"Coming." Mike yells back to his daughter heading back into his daughter's bedroom where he helps his daughter to button and zip up her pants.
"Let's do your shoes why were in here." Mike tells his daughter who nods and runs to collect a pair of shoes "Here Daddy." Kensi says passing her father the pair of shoes she wants to ware which turn out to be her ballet shoes.
"Mackenzie you can't wear your dance shoes to school pick something else." Mike tells his daughter preparing for the argument that they have every morning.
"But Daddy I want to." Mackenzie tells her father giving him her best puppy dog eyes and stamping her feet on the ground.
"We have had this conversation Mackenzie your ballet shoes are for when you have dance class not for another time pick another pair." Mike tells his daughter.
"But, I like them." Mackenzie tells her father.
"I know you do but you can't where them to school so I'm giving you five seconds to pick another pair." Mike tells his daughter but when she shows no sign of moving he says "1"
Mackenzie not wanting to be put in time out which is what happens when he father gets to five she races to where he shoes are kept and grabs a pair of boots instead.
"Good choice." Mike tells his daughter helping her get them on "Breakfast is on the table go eat while I get your bag." Mike tells his daughter realising that if he doesn't hurry up that he is once again going to be late.
"What about my hair?" Mackenzie asks her father.
"I'll do it while you eat go." Mike tells his daughter who nods and races into the other room.
Mike heads to where his daughters little desk is a picks up his daughters school bag once he collects that he heads back out into the other room where he puts her lunch in her bag then places it next to his so that he can grab them both on his way out.
"How do you want your hair today?" Mike asks his daughter grabbing her brush and other hair accessories.
"Pony tail please." Kensi tells her father.
"Can do." Mike tells his daughter doing her hair the way she wants.
"Finished Daddy." Kensi tells her father a few minutes later.
"Go brush your teeth then we have to go." Mike tells his daughter as he looks at the clock before picking up the plates and bowls from breakfast.
"Ready to go." Kensi tells her father coming out from the bathroom a few minutes later.
"Put on your coat, beanie and scarf." Mike instructs his daughter putting his bag over one shoulder and his daughters purple school bag over the other.
Kensi nods and puts on her coat, beanie and scarf "Ok let's go." Mike tells his daughter as they leave the apartment Mike making sure to lock the door behind him.
Mike grabs hold of his daughters hand as the make the two block walk to the subway and to Mackenzie's school when they get there Mike notices that no one is there.
"Kensi why is no one here?" Mike asks his daughter.
"Student free day, I forgot to give you the note." Mackenzie tells her father a look of realisation coming to her face. .
"Great, um ok." Mike things to himself trying to come up with where his daughter could go.
"Am I going to go to Miss Karen's?" Kensi asks her father talking about someone Mike has known for years and runs a day care that the only reason Mike can afford is because she gives him a discount because there friends.
"No Miss Karen's out of the city visiting her sister remember." Mike tells his daughter as she has been going to her best friend's house after school for the past week ever since Miss Karen has been gone.
"So where am I going to go?" Kensi asks her father.
Mike thinks for a few minutes then realises that he only has one option "You're going to come to work with me." Mike tells his daughter.
"Really?" Kensi asks excitedly "So I finally get to meet Miss Donna and Mr Harvey?" Kensi asks her father as they head back to the subway.
"Really but I need you to be on your best behaviour." Mike tells his daughter knowing that things are going to be hard enough at work when everyone finds out his secret.
"I'm always on my best behaviour Daddy." Mackenzie tells her father.
Mike smiles "I need you to be on better than your best." Mike tells his daughter.
"I can do it." Kensi informs her father smiling up at him.
"I know you can Kensi Kat."
Mike and Kensi arrive at the subway and make the trip to Pearson Hardman. When they get there Mike gets an odd look from the people at security but they don't question him. He is thankful that when he arrives in the elevator he and Mackenzie are the only ones in it, knowing that he needs to explain something's to his daughter he kneels down next to her "Kensi its going to be surprise for people to see you were going up to Mr Harvey's floor as I have some work I need to give him so once I've talked to Ms Donna about you I'm going to ask her if you can stay with her while I talk to Harvey would you be ok with that?" Mike asks his daughter.
"Yes, I want to meet Ms Donna you talk about her all the time." Kensi tells her father happily glad that she finally gets to meet the people that her father talks about all the time.
"Good girl." Mike says standing up "Grab my hand." Mike tells his daughter as they reach the floor.
Kensi smiles at her father as she reaches out and grabs his hand and they exit the elevator together. As they make their way to Donna's cubical Mike is very well aware that everyone is looking at him and his daughter but he doesn't let it bother him. Mike walks behind Donna's cubical so that the walls off it are blocking Mackenzie from being seen from Harvey's office.
"Donna." Mike says to her.
"You're late." Donna says turning around and smiling when she sees Kensi "You decided to introduce her to all of us finally did you?" Donna asks Mike and Mike is surprised that she isn't surprised about Kensi.
"It wasn't exactly planed." Mike tells her surprised that she knows about Kensi "How did you know?"
"Last month when she was sick, and needed to be picked up the call from the school was first sent to my phone and then I forwarded it onto you." Donna tells Mike.
"Oh." Mike says surprised "Have you told anyone?" Mike asks curious.
"No it wasn't my place; I figured you would tell everyone when you were ready." Donna tells Mike.
"That was the plan but I wasn't informed that there was a school free day today and there was no other choice but to bring her here, introducing her to everyone earlier than I had planned." Mike tells Donna and then looks down at Kensi "Kensi I would like you to meet Ms Donna." Mike tells his daughter.
"Hi Miss Donna I have wanted to meet your for a really long time Daddy talks about you and Mr Harvey all the time." Kensi tells Donna smiling at her as she walks around to Donna's side of the cubical.
"He talks about me a lot does he, what does he say?" Donna asks the five year old curious.
"That you're really nice, that you look out for Daddy and that you're magic." Kensi tells Donna.
Wanting to get of the topic of what he tells his daughter about Donna Mike quickly continues talking "I was wondering if you could watch Kensi while I go and give Harvey the paper work about the case." Mike asks Donna curious.
"Of course." Donna says smiling at Mike "You going to tell him?"
"Once I've given him the paperwork." Mike tells Donna taking Kensi's bag of his shoulder "Here's her school bag there is a book in there that she hasn't read yet plus so pencils and paper for her to do some drawing." Mike tells Donna handing her the backpack and then he helps his daughter take of her coat, beanie and scarf.
"Don't worry Mike we'll find something to do." Donna tells the worried father.
"Thanks Donna, Kensi I need you to be good for Ms Donna, I'll be right there in that room if you need me." Mike tells his daughter pointing to Harvey's office.
"Ok Daddy." Kensi tells her father as Donna helps her so that she is sitting in the spare chair in Donna's cubical that Mike hasn't noticed before.
"She'll be fine Mike go deal with Harvey." Donna tells Mike who nods and heads to Harvey's office.
"You're late." Harvey tells Mike when he enters his office.
"I Know, you wouldn't believe the morning I had." Mike informs Harvey.
"Don't care have you gotten the paperwork I need?" Harvey says as neither he nor Mike notice Louis walking over to Donna's cubical.
"Yes I have it right here, the articles of corporation summarised and a copy of the termination letter given to Fred which does violate them." Mike tells Harvey handing over the folder.
Harvey quickly skims them before saying "This almost makes up for you being late." Harvey tells Mike.
"Harvey there is something I need to tell you." Mike tells Harvey.
"What?" Harvey asks looking up from his desk but before Mike can say anything Harvey's door opens and a crying Kensi comes running in saying "Daddy." Mike turns around and kneels as his crying daughter throws herself into Mike arms being followed a second later by Donna entering.
Harvey has never been more surprised in his life as he had no idea that Mike was a father.
"Donna what happened?" Mike asks her worried about what made his daughter cry and angry at whomever it was.
"Louis, he came over and started being Louis and then he noticed Kensi and he started asking who she was but she said that her Daddy told her not to talk to strangers then he told her who he was and kept trying to get her to tell him who she was but when she would Louis called her a brat and said something else that I am not repeating." Donna tells Mike.
Harvey and Donna are both surprised when Mike gets a look of pure rage on his face "Louis did this Louis made my daughter cry." Mike says angrily "I'm going to go have a conversation with him"
"No you're not." Harvey says getting up from his desk as he doesn't know anything about what is going on but he knows enough to know that letting Mike go talk to the person who made his daughter cry isn't a good idea.
Mike looks between Harvey, Donna who is blocking the door and his crying daughter and he realises that as much as would like to go have a conversation with Louis it isn't a good idea to do it when he is this angry.
"It's ok Kensi, Daddy's here the mean man is gone." Mike tells his daughter running his hand through her hair.
"Really?" Kensi asks through her sobs.
"Really." Mike tells his daughter.
"I have an idea Kensi how would you like to come with me and have some cookies and juice they will make you feel better?" Donna asks Kensi walking over to Mike and Kensi knowing that Mike and Harvey need to talk.
"Can I Daddy?" Kensi asks her father.
"Of course." Mike says putting his daughter on the floor while mouthing thankyou to Donna "But you have to stay with Donna and not run off ok?" Mike asks his daughter.
"Ok." Kensi tells her father sniffing a little as she walks over and stands with Donna.
"Let's go Kid." Donna tells Kensi turning around to leave only stoping when Mike says something.
"Donna she is severally allergic to Banana's but she doesn't tell anyone and will eat them when she gets the opportunity because she likes the taste so make sure she doesn't have anything with bananas in it." Mike informs Donna.
"Ok." Donna says reaching down and grabbing Kensi's hand as the two off them leave. Once they do Mike turns back to Harvey.
"You have a kid." Harvey says in total and complete shock.
"I do Mackenzie she's five." Mike tells his boss.
"Why didn't you tell me? Where's her mother?" Harvey asks can't help but becoming a little hurt that Mike didn't tell him.
"It's a long story." Mike tells Harvey sitting down on Harvey's couch.
"We've got time." Harvey tells Mike sitting down on the chair next to the couch.
