as usual review!- please

Harvey leaned against the door frame, he had just got off the phone with Jessica and had been told in a matter of seconds that his fun fiilled day with Mike would have to be cancelled, he was not looking forward to taking the kid to work with him.


"Mike you need to come with daddy to the fir-"

"Daddy look dinosaur go bwaff" Mike interrupted squealing as he played, Harvey sighed "Mike why do you have a basin of water" Harvey asked exasperated as he finished fixing his tie. Mike continued to splash about covering the wooden floor.

"Right sorry kiddo fun's over, you shouldn't have this, god knows how you got it" Harvey grumbled taking the basin putting it back into the sink, Mike stood up starting to cry, Harvey looked at Mike "No Mike don't start that, you know you're not allowed that without daddy's permission" Mike started wailing, rubbing at his eyes, Harvey looked in the cupboard walking up to Mike pushing the pacifier into the younger mans mouth. Mike whined through it "mwineeeee" Mike cried throwing himself on the floor rolling about.


"Dadaaaaay mwine" Mike cried again this upping his tantrum by running over to the worktop trying to reach for the basin, "Aha-ahhaaah"

"No Mike, we need to get ready, you've got to come to the firm today with daddy seeing how day care is shut, which is just a great big inconvenience", Harvey said as Mike continued to cry trying to reach for 'his' bowl, climbing onto the worktop.

Harvey opened the fridge taking out the prepared bottles, despite now having the mental age of a three and a half- four year old Donna and Harvey had struggled to move Mike on from bottles and diapers- as a result he still depended on both.

"Mike!" Harvey yelled when the younger man hit the floor, "AHAHAHAAH-AAHAHAHHAHA" Mike screamed as Harvey picked him up quickly checking over for injuries, "Mike you need to be careful kiddo, you could get hurt" Mike cried into Harvey's chest sucking his thumb.

Mike had been acting like a monkey lately climbing on the door frames and the cupboards; he definitely couldn't be cooped up for long.


"Come on kiddo we'll go for a walk in the stroller take Rocky and then go to the firm" Harvey suggested placing Mike onto the sofa taking the time to quickly mop up the water, Mike jumped off the sofa puting his sock in the wet patch, "Mike why would you do that?" Harvey asked confused, rolling his eyes he changed Mike's socks smirking as Mike held a foot out for his daddy to put his shoes on, "You got a slave pup" (Mike nodded smiling not really understanding what Harvey meant but find his daddy's face amusing)

"We goin to daddy work" Mike said leaning back holding a foot out for Harvey to place his shoes on, "Yeah we are you can pick some toys to bring" "Bwing gwawage" Harvey smiled "You can bring your garage buddy yeah, what do we say though" Mike looked at Harvey smiling "PWEASE" he shrieked, "That's it good boy, right can you sit there while daddy gets himself ready" Mike nodded busying himself with trying to unbutton his cardigan, Harvey shook his head smiling at Mike.


"WOCKY!" Mike screamed running over to the dogs basket, Rocky barked annoyed at having been woken up but looked up at his owner assuming his role of being the 'teddy bear'

The bark didn't bother the young man who picked him up carrying him over to the sofa climbing on "Dw come to daddys work too" Mike said cuddling the dog into his chest as he sat back on the recliner watching bob the builder.


Harvey walked out his room to see Mike keeping the dog hostage in his arms, "Mike buddy careful with the puppy" Harvey said packing Mike's bag, "Mike would you like apple or apricot puree?" "APPLE" Mike yelled bouncing on the sofa, jumping off to put the puppy in the stroller. Harvey raised an eyebrow, "I don't think rocky wants to be in the stroller kiddo, we can't bring him to daddy's work" Mike looked heartbroken.

"Yeah bwing him" Mike cried lying down on the floor, Harvey bent down so he was still just slightly taller than Mike. "Mike buddy we can't take the puppy to work"

Mike whined kicking his feet, Harvey sighed, he had gone straight to his go to 'Kicking and screaming until he got his Way' The older man remained firm "Mike you want daddy to bring your I-pad we can put a film on, Mike" "No-ooooooooooh" Mike whined, moaning into the floorboards. Harvey simply rolled his eyes, going back to organising Mike's things.


"Mwike walk" Mike said when Harvey put him in the stroller, Harvey sighed ajusting the stroller. "We don't have time today kiddo maybe later" Harvey felt bad for not letting Mike walk but when he did Mike would always find new things to explore in the park.

Harvey and Donna considered this to be a very special trate, Harvey thought Mike's mind was amazing and always wanted to feed into it, as much as he could. However today, when they had a strict timeline was not the time to stop for every leave, stray cat ect.

Harvey got Mike settled in his stroller with some milk and his I-pad, Harvey still very much used bottles to keep Mike occupied or quiet, Mike was rarely without a bottle in his mouth or hand .

"Right we're good to go" the older man said buttoning his own coat, fastening the lead on the dog. "Let's go bud"


"Dadddy mwike go pwark" Mike said pointing, looking longingly as they walked past the play park, he just wanted to play, not go to the boring old office. Mike used to love their office, but in this mind set, he became bored easily and was a pain in the ass for Harvey to control, hence daycare.

Harvey shook his head, knowing they would be very late "Not today kiddo we don't have time" Harvey said regretfully trying to walk past quicker so as not to upset Mike as he checked his watch wincing. Jessica would not be happy.

Mike kicked his feet against the stroller starting to cry, Harvey rolled his eyes, (wondering when he had became so soft) as he found himself turning the stroller back in the direction of the park.

Surely five minutes wouldn't hurt..


"We got five minutes monkey then we do need to go" Harvey spoke, as he made quick work of unclipping Mike, who took off as soon as he was free, climbing on the monkey bars, with Harvey rushing to wait underneath, just encase. They definetely did not have time for a hospital trip this morning.

Harvey checked his phone, seeing another message from Jessica, it must have been urgent. He allowed Mike a few more minutes, before deciding they had to leave.

"Mike, time to go, come here, so I can lift you down" , Rocky stay!" Harvey shouted at seeing the puppy about to leave the gate.

Mike had that famous mischievous look on his face and giggled pretending to climb down, laughing at his disobedience, running to the side Harvey previously been at when the older man walked towards him. Harvey rolled his eyes, but couldnt help but smirk. Mike was definetely his kid.

"Mike if you don't stop I will take you down" Mike laughed in Harvey's face stomping his feet, he clearly found his daddy's frustration hilarious.


Five minutes later, they were still in the middle of the same battle, Mike wrapping Harvey around his finger.

Harvey sighed, knowing that the only way he could get Mike, would cause a major tantrum. He hated being the reason Mike cried.

"Mike you've got to the count of five" Mike scowled, "No" he yelled stamping his foot for effect.

As soon as that happened, that was the end for Harvey, Mike was no longer being cheeky, he was now just being rude, which he didn't stand for, especially when Mike decided to add further fury to the fire, blowing spit bubbles.


"Mike come here!" Harvey yelled at him, telling himself to remain calm and remind himself that he was not dealing with adult hyper disobedient Mike, he was dealing with Mike who had the mentality of a toddler and the personality of a two year old.

Luckily for Harvey, while in deep thought, Mike decided to move from the climbing aparatus, running over to the rocket, "Mike!" Harvey yelled running after Mike picking him up, tossing him over his shoulder fireman style knowing that Mike would start his tantrum with kicking and dirty his suit if he was placed on his hip.

Mike immediately started to cry and fight, reaching to grab a fistful of Harvey's hair "Daddy!" Mike squealed, Harvey wince at the high pitched sound.

"Ow Mike!" Harvey chastised


"No no" Mike cried trying to resist getting put in the stroller, "NO-AHAHAA-AHHHHHHHHH!" Mike screamed, lashing out, slapping Harvey's hand. Harvey ignored the behaviour.

Donna often had said he was too soft to let Mike slap and kick him, but Harvey told her it made his life easier, choosing which battles to have and Mike was disciplined. Plus he felt bad for making the younger man- not that he told her this.

"Rocky you ready to go" Mike continued to scream kicking out at Harvey when the man tried to get a bottle out the basket, he wasn't fond on the idea of taking a screaming Mike into the office.

Mike calm down" Harvey spoke softly and firmly, passing Mike his bottle, ignoring getting into confrontation, when it was quickly tossed to the ground. Harvey tucked it into his pocket, making way to the office.


"Harvey, you took some time getting here" Jessica commented seeing the senior partner stroll in an hour and a half after she had made the call.

"Yeah we had to take Rocky for a walk" Harvey replied We?" Jessica repeated, raising an eyebrow, Jessica liked Mike- more now he was living with Harvey and no longer considered him as a fraud, but Harvey rarely brought him to the office anymore.

"Yes Jessica, day care doesn't open on Saturdays, believe me I am no more thrilled about bringing him, than you. Harvey replied slightly peeved, that Jessica was questioning him for bringing Mike in. She should know that he had good reason.

"Hello Mike, how are you today" Jessica said when Mike walked up to them, clutching some dinosaurs, trailing a dinosaur duffel bag, he looked at her, looking to the floor, placing his stuffed dragon over his face.

"He's pissed at me" Harvey told her, rolling his eyes.


Mike was still glaring at the floor, sucking on his pacifier, not moving from his spot.

"Mike, you have your toys, you can play, you don't need to keep up with this silent treatment, I get you are pissed at me"

Mike huffed and sighed, climbing onto the window ledge, taking his lego out, Harvey raised an eyebrow as the younger man, where his prised basket ball's used to live- that had changed as soon as Mike had, had his accident. The kid was a klutz and threw things.

"Mike" Harvey warned lightly, feeling Lego being thrown in his direction. "Stop it" was all he said, before going back to his work. Another brick flew through the air, smacking his arm.

Standing up, Harvey walked to Mike.

Mike whined when Harvey picked him up placing him on the other side of the office on his play mat next to all his toys, "Ahhh-aha" Mike cried pointing at the window.

"No stay here, this is the naughty little boys place, the window is for big boys"

Harvey spoke firmly, going back to sit at his desk, Mike sat and pouted at Harvey for a few seconds before realising that he wasn't going to get any attention and got to work building his house. Harvey smirked as he highlighted a file.


Harvey was able to do some solid work for about an hour before he realised that he needed to go to the file room to get something, Donna was on vacation and he hadn't hired a replacement in the interim, Donna had, but Harvey had turned them away.

He looked over to Mike who seemed perfectly content and peaceful with building his house, he hadn't moved much in the last half hour so Harvey had assumed it would be okay to leave him for two minutes.

"Mike buddy, daddy has to nip out for a minute okay" Mike looked up, focusing on him."Daadddy wook mwy house". Harvey smiled proudly, it was so satisfying to see how much like was progressing.

"Wow that's great kiddo, we'll take a picture for Donna, when I get back okay," Mike smiled happily, adding another block, sucking on one " Daddy check your diaper?" Harvey asked, (not giving the younger man much choice) pulling Mike's pants down unfastening his vest. Mike pulled against him, making whining sounds. "Wait pup, you're a little soggy" Harvey said feeling the diaper, Mike stood still, frowning, letting Harvey know he still was annoying him.

"You're not bad I'll change you when I get back" Harvey deciding fastening the vest and pulling Mike's pants back up, chuckling, when Mike plonked himself right back down, going back to 'His work"

"Mike I need to leave to get something. I will be back in five minutes. "Do not leave my office"


Mike played for a bit before loosing interest. He had Harvey on the brain.

Mike went through stages where he would be comfortable and happy enough to play by himself, keeping himself amused for a short length of time or for hours.

Other times, he would literally attach himself to the older man.

At first the younger man was content with pulling all of Harvey's records out, using them as bridges and ramps for his cars and trains, then emptying the highlighters out. Helping his daddy, with adding colours to the walls.

No. Mike decided, as he chewed on a rubber dinosaur, he really wanted Harvey.

"My find daddy Donna?" Mike asked the intercom, having seen Harvey use it, almost everyday. When he got no response, Mike started to sob, hugging his stuffed dinosaur. "Daddy" he Whimpered. "Daddy Go"


Mike cried going into the office on the opposite side of Harvey's , assuming that's where he would be,. Mike looked around, crying more, when he didn't see the older man, "Mwy dadeee" Mike wailed crawling under the desk, sobbing, sucking on his dragon's tail, he really wanted his pacifier, but had left it on the floor and going in there would only upset him further. His daddy wasn't there.

Someone walked in and Mike jumped, hitting his head off the table, crying more.


"Yes, my plan is going swimmingly, Jessica will be gone shortly and Harvey thereafter"

Mike squealed hearing Harvey's name mentioned "What the hell is this" Hardman yelled pulling Mike out from under his desk by his leg. "Well! Who the hell are you!?" Hardman continued to rage, Mike covered his ears, rocking into himself. As a way of blocking out danger.

"Who are you, why are you in my office?" Hardman continued.

"Who the hell sent you, you better get out, before I call the Police!"

Harold walked nervously to Louis Litt's office to deliver an urgent file, after his mentor had threatened to leave him out at sea, with no life raft. Harold heard shouting and what sounded like Mike whimpering.

Mike had been in the office a couple of times since the car accident, he liked Mike, Mike had always helped him and Harold didn't want anyone upsetting him.


"Sir, what are you doing, Harold asked seeing Hardman about to hurt Mike, after getting no answers from him.

"Sir That's Mike, he is Harvey's so- "So Harvey is behind this piece of shit, as if the man could sink no Lower, sending spies!" Harold frowned confused "Sir, this is Mike, Harvey's former associate, he was in a car accident- he has..

Harold tried to bring his thoughts together, stumbling over his words, tripping over his feet, going to find Harvey.


"Mr specter, si sir" Harvey stopped to look at the snivelling associate, as he made his way back to his office, he had completely forgotten Mike was with him today.

"What Harold" Harvey asked annoyed "Sir, hard. Hardman" "

Harvey rolled his eyes "Look Harold you got a problem with Hardman don't come to me kid, got to your dog handler" Harvey said walking away "He's got Mike" Harvey looked around eyes flashing as he stormed over to Harold "What the hell do you mean?"He yelled.


Mike was no longer in Hardmans office, when the two of them ran in, Harvey stormed into the founding partners office, throwing the door open, smashing it against the wall.

Hardman was beginning to think thst something hadn't been right with the young man who had been in his office and was considering what to do,, when he felt his nose crack, blood spraying everywhere.

"What the fuck" he exclaimed.


Harvey stormed out, looking desperately for Mike, seeing him curled up, under one of the desks, bending down slowly and quietly.

"Mikey, it's daddy buddy, come out" Mike rocked, blocking the noise, he didnt think it was Harvey. It did sound like him. But he was so afraid.

"Mikey, you're okay baby daddy's here, daddy's here and I'm never going away"


Jessica strolled into Hardmans office.

"Who the hell do you think you are?" The managing partner demanded.

"Jessica what can I do for you" Hardman asked, so confused over the day he was having.

You upsetting Mike Specter" Hardman raied an eyebrow, putting two and two together "That young man? "how is he Harvey's son" Harvey was only about fourteen years older than Mike.

Jessica placed her hands on her hips,

"Mike was involved in a car crash reducing his mental age to that of a Toddler. The fear he showed was very much real. You better hope goddamn pray this doesn't screw up his progress and that Harvey is in a forgiving mood you piece of Shit"


"Harvey" Harvey looked up from where he was feeding Mike his bottle, the younger man physically shaking, he had been so upset, that he had thrown up down himself. Harvey flared daggers."I am going to kill him" He muttered.

Jessica sat down on Harvey's chair, crossing her legs

"He didn't know about Mike. If you found some kid hiding under your desk what would you do". you'd probably assume he had been sent by someone and threaten to call the police"

Jessica asked "I wouldn't beat the shit out of him" Harvey said, "I am going to beat him, he is dead to Us"

Jessica raised an eyebrow "Mike needs you Harvey, what good would it do to get yourself locked up. We will deal with Hardman in due course"
