Harvey was sitting on his couch drinking a beer while watching Star Trek. Even though he loves Star Trek his mind was so far away from the real world. He was too busy thinking of the "what ifs". Also, his confusion hasn't surpassed he was still deeply confused with his feeling. Harvey was the type of guy who keeps his feeling on check but with Donna he just seems to lose control. He was still deep in thought when something broke the silence.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
Harvey looked at his watched and wondered who the hell was needing something from him at this hour. He answered the door wearing his jeans and an old Harvard t-shirt. He saw her standing there guilt and confusion written all over her face. He took his time to stare at her. She was dressed casually. A gray, v-neck top, dark skinny jeans and just a pair of sneakers. It was so un-Donna but Harvey knew this side of her just like she knew this side of him. "Hey." She started, trying to smile to lighten the moment they were having. Harvey never gets tired of that smile. He has always admired Donna; he just never said it out loud to anyone this past 12 years.
"Come in. Make yourself comfortable." They entered his apartment, both feeling the tension. It feels like there was an elephant in the room that no one tried to address. "Can I get you anything? Something to eat or drink" Donna declined to Harvey's offer. Harvey sat beside her and waited for her to deliver the reason of her visit. "So.." he said to push her to start talking.
"What did you mean earlier? You said you were sorry." Harvey looked away not wanting to be seen vulnerable. "Harvey, we used to talk but ever since I got fired and was hired back it's been different. You never talk to me anymore, you shut me out, you act like we're nothing beyond co-workers. What's happening?" He remained silent while he tried to focus on the invisible object on the floor.
Donna was growing impatient. She wanted answers and she wanted them now. "Harvey!" the increase in her tone caught Harvey's attention and finally looked at her. "I was guilty okay!" his voice was slightly raising as well. Donna was taken aback by his sudden outburst. He was like an active volcano ready to erupt anytime soon. "I was guilty because I didn't fight for you. You've been with me every single step and I couldn't forgive myself for letting you go just like that." The volcano just erupted and here comes the damage. "It's not just the fact that I want you in the office, it's also the fact that I want you. 12 years ago I asked you out and you told that we shouldn't because we're so good at being friends and dating would ruin that. I let you make the call that time and I hid my feeling bottled up for the longest time and it's the most excruciating part of having you. So near yet so far. You always thought we went back to being neutral but I never did. 12 years ago I would've said that I liked you and I want to go out with you but now I can say that I'm in love with you and I can't let you go anymore. I can't keep pretending that there's nothing there. It's too damn difficult to fake it." Donna was staring at him like the ghost from her past has just risen from the grave. Harvey couldn't let the moment pass anymore and kissed her. He placed all he can on that kiss. Donna's eyes widen in shock but she soon gave in placing a hand on his head while the other found its way around his waist. The kiss was something they've both been dreaming of. Something they've always wanted to do yet something forbidden. They were both running on adrenaline and that kiss seemed to be forever. Everything was okay until all her fears flashed before her eyes so she pulled away. Donna looked Harvey into his eyes and said two words that changed them "We can't." and with that she ran out of his apartment leaving a very vulnerable Harvey behind.
A/N: What do you want to happen with them? Give me suggestions, I might just write (type) them in :D
