Loving Each Other Out Loud

Chapter 2 - Stifled at Work

As Donna continued researching for the presentation to First Fidelity Bank, the Journal with Thomas' press release was discovered on Donna's desk. Normally not a regular reader; however, she had become accustomed to glancing at The Journal and other assorted business and law related literature and then choosing tidbits in articles on items that would definitively impact Harvey's job. She may not have been great on "legalese" like doc review or discovery, but knowing odds and ends of prospective clients or mergers which Harvey may be handling became one of the reasons why she became good at her job as Harvey's secreatry and now that of COO.

It had only been a week ago when Thomas' new high end deal had made him the happiness man on earth. It was also only a week ago she had thought she had moved on from Harvey with Thomas.

Donna jumped as her cell phone buzzed and vibrated on the desk beside Donna's elbow. Before it could fall off the desk because of the phone not sitting level on the desk, Donna retrieved it without looking at who would be on the other end of the receiver.

"Well, did you solve your dilemma, dear?"

"Mom! Hi!" Donna shook her head to clear when she heard her mother's soothing voice on the other end.

"I know Harvey was involved in your work decision, but you didn't say about who was on the other side. All you told me was that he was also someone you cared about."

"Mom, as much as I would love to elaborate on my choices, I'm in a bit of jam here and really need to focus on my work."

Donna could hear Roberta Paulsen wince at Donna's no-nonsense tone.

"I'm sorry if I called at a bad time."

Donna put down the Journal and then sighed and said, "No you haven't and I really want to tell you the most wonderful thing has happened, but I just don't want to discuss it here where there are ears."

"You do have your own office now, right?" Roberta kept persisting. She sensed a change in Donna's voice, a calm, which she had never detected before. Apparently it had something to do with this wonderful thing that had happened. Roberta only wanted to be there for her daughter and share in her feelings. However, Roberta knew that her daughter would eventually confide in either her or Jim about what was happening in her life.

"Can we get dinner on Sunday night?" Donna asked realizing she did not consult Harvey first before asking her mother on Sunday.

"Sure. Are you sure it will be all right with Harvey?" Roberta asked in amused manner. As if she could keep it from me. Harvey Specter is the only one that could put a smile in my baby's voice.

"Mom, how do you know it has to do with Harvey?"

"Seriously, Donna?" Roberta said. "By the way, if Harvey says it's ok, I would love to have dinner on Sunday. Your dad is available, too, if you want."

Donna bit her lip because she knew that Harvey and Jim Paulsen really never got along too well. The last time they saw each other was when Jim was brought into the mix during Mike's fraud. Anita Gibbs, the prosecuting US Assistant District Attorney, tried her damndest for Donna to turn on Harvey by bringing up an old real estate deal in which her father had become embroiled. This was a deal that Donna had brought to Harvey to see if he had wanted to take part. Luckily Harvey was able to make it right and Donna never had to make the choice between saving her father from prison or having Harvey go to prison as the main perpetrator in Mike's fraud. Thinking back on all that happened only three years ago, Donna was surprised at the events that had stemmed from the first time she had learned that Harvey had hired a kid with no law degree.

"Mom, I will have to run it by Harvey, first, though however I want Dad to come with you," Donna said.

"See, I knew Harvey was this something wonderful. I'm so happy for you, baby. I can't wait to see you, so you can give me the details," Roberta gushed.

Just then Louis was signaling from Donna's office doorway. He obviously needed something because he made the cut motion across his throat.

"Mom, I'll call you back about Sunday. Gotta go. The boss is calling," Donna said jokingly.

"Tell Louis I said "Hi!", Roberta said hanging up.

Donna hit the phone off.

"My mother says "hi"," Donna said as she watched Louis take two more steps into her office.

"Oh, that was your mom, Roberta. How is she doing?"

"Look, Louis, I know you're not in here to shoot the shit about my mother."

Louis was not exactly happy at the moment especially with Donna's tone, but he wanted -no-demanded his COO's full attention.

"What can I do for you, Louis? The research on First Fidelity's merger is the infant stage. I don't have much yet."

"It's not that. I know you probably don't have a whole scheme yet. I wanted to talk to you about Harvey."

Donna visibly swallowed. Uh-oh, here we go. He's going to whip out the by-laws and let me know why a COO and a Senior Name Partner can't date.

"What about Harvey?"

"Well, he almost had his world crash in again with this Thomas fiasco and now I want to make sure he's not going to make any more shady moves in obtaining First Fidelity's merger with First NY National," Louis said.

"Louis, that's not what you came here for. You really want to know how my relationship with Thomas is affecting Harvey and if it will drive him to do anything else in the gray area," Donna rose and took refuge in looking out the window.

Do I relent and tell Louis that Harvey and I are now together? Will that put his mind at ease?

As Donna stood at the window looking out at the skyline of Manhattan, Donna's phone went off again. This time telling her she had a text from Harvey. She had given him his own ringtone, so she would know when he called or texted.

Donna immediately grabbed her phone, but Louis' hand grabbed it first.

"Louis, you have no right...!"

"I have every right. Harvey's focus and your focus have been off since the shit hit the fan. Especially yours, Donna, you put your relationship above this firm. I thought you could be trusted dating a client and all that meant, but I guess not!" Louis was still in panic mode. As he looked down at Donna's phone he read the text.

Meet me at The Windsor. I think we need a "lunch break". Food and clothing optional...H

"Why does Harvey want to meet you at The Windsor Hotel? Are you two planning something behind my back?"

"No, Louis, of course not, you're managing partner. You're entitled to know what we are doing about getting the firm back on its feet once again and to execute your idea. Harvey is probably between clients and wants to discuss what happened at First Federal. He wants to run it by me before we provide you with any details. I'm sure that's all he wants," Donna said while retrieving her phone from Louis' grubby hands.

Luckily Louis did not have Mike's eidetic memory, so he did not remember or read the part about the clothing and food. Louis remained seated even after Donna turned away from him again this time with the phone and started texting.

Almost caught. Louis grabbed my phone. He didn't ask about your optional suggestion. Be there in five...without food or clothing since it's my choice...D *Winking Emoji*

"Well, if you two come up with something or have good news, you will let me in on it, right?" Louis said rising from Donna's chair.

"Of course, Louis. You're the managing partner and we do this because we know that you have faith in us."

Louis smiled and then lowered his head.

"Look, I'm sorry I attacked you and Harvey this morning and you just now. It's just that with the baby coming and the firm almost falling down I have had a lot on my plate. I still have faith in you and Harvey. Hey, do you think I could join you two in your little pow-wow?"

Donna hesitated and scratched the back of her head. Think, Donna, how to extricate yourself without telling Louis about you and Harvey.

"Look, Louis, whatever Harvey wants to see just me about is probably to do with another idea that he wants to surprise you with. Harvey wanted to say thank you to everyone for sticking by him. We both do. So we were planning something when you gave us this assignment. We really want to surprise you, Louis. So why don't we not spoil the surprise and then we will let you know once we have everything set...ok?" Donna said not feeling very comforted in the fact Louis' hackles get raised when he thinks he is being left out of the loop. Since he became Managing Partner, Louis had shown tremendous understanding and growth. However, when Louis was in panic mode, he seemed to forget all that decorum and become old petty, paranoid Louis afraid to be left out of the ball game and wondering who was going to aim at his head with the ball.

Louis smiled. "Oh, ok, I can live with that. Just not too long because we have to move quickly on this merger. There are two other firms on the hook for this merger and its future business, so time is of the essence."

Donna walked from the window to Louis and hugged him.

"Don't worry, Louis. I'm sure Harvey laid on the old Specter charm."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Harvey opened the door and saw Donna standing in the doorway of The Windsor Hotel Room 305c. She stood there holding a sheaf of papers in one arm and a large handbag hanging off her other. The bag looked unfamiliar to Harvey. Once he would have known the designer of the handbag because he would have accompanied her on her spending spree with his credit card. Just one of those fringe benefits that he liked being able to provide. He smirked because he knew this would have to be a working lunch. Not at all what I had in mind, but we'll see...

Donna took two steps into the room into Harvey's arms where he held her close and kissed her deeply.

"I assume Louis read you the Riot Act before you left," Harvey said coming up for air and then diving into kissing her neck and igniting a heavy moan from Donna.

"You don't know the half of it...ooh baby..." Donna moaned and then decided they were going to play now work later. Luckily Harvey's tie was already undone and his shirt open to reveal his chisled chest. Donna dropped the sheaf of papers to the floor, her large MJ bag, and her coat which revealed she had nothing on but her black lace panties and matching black bra.

"Donna! When did you..." Harvey began to wonder until Donna shut him up with a kiss to the mouth and then trailing kisses beginning at the open throat part of his white dress shirt. She unbuttoned a button as her lips followed every button undone until she reached his trousers. She smirked and wordlesssly she removed the offending clothing removing his belt.

While Donna undressed him literally, he removed his shirt and stood there as Donna worked her magic on his erect member which saluted Donna when his slacks were pulled down along with his boxers.

"Come to mama," She pushed Harvey onto the bed and straddled him. His erection poking through her still covered pussy.

"Take them off," Harvey said as he began to pull her black bikini panties off. He slid up to rest against the bedboard liking the ability to hold Donna close. He kissed her neck and lovebit her ear lobe all the while slyly maneuvering his hot hands behind her to remove her black lace bra. His hands went again to her panties and began to slide them off. He could feel how ready she was as Donna straddled his thighs. Everytime she moved her mouth on him, she lit fires along her path. ,

As Harvey thought he was getting somewhere with her panties, Donna slapped his hand playfully.

"I'm not done with you yet, lover boy. Be patient. You'll get your turn," Donna whispered deeply she rocked back on her knees never taking her eyes off Harvey's face loving his passion heavy lids as his deep brown eyes shot her full of love and increased her passion with their intense gaze.

She could never love this man's body enough. His body was different than the very first time 13 years ago, but he was still all she needed. His smile gave her butterflies and made her weak. The muscular curves and planks undid Donna, and she would never tire of loving him with her mouth, hands, tongue whatever she could use to touch him wanting to pleasure him and bring him to full orgasm as he had generously provided the same for her since the other night when she and Harvey had made love for the first time after a very, very long time.

Donna trailed along his body with her tongue loving the taste of his salty skin. He was warm and full of life. She took his right nipple into her mouth while she played with his testicles in one hand. Harvey was sensitive all over even his nipples. Her tongue raised gooseflesh and Harvey's legs twitched in anticipation of how Donna would love him next. Donna smiling like a green eyed cat shifted to Harvey's left nipple and this time she stroked his hard penis. Feeling the precum she spread it over the head.

She worked her way down touching him everywhere between the soft flesh and hard muscle. She wended her way down to between his legs where she knew he could not wait much longer. She finally had her head between his legs. She kissed his penis and then kissed below his scrotum to the small sensitive spot there.

As Donna worked her magic, Harvey's hands loving carressed her hair, mussing it up from its neat and perfectly coiffed COO's style. He moved to hold her close and Donna capitulated for a minute with a searing kiss causing Harvey to moan in a strained voice, "Please, Donna, let me be inside you." His twitching penis ready to joust Donna. Donna hiccuped with a cry as she felt Harvey move so close to her entry point where she was dripping with want and need of him.

Harvey still carressed her and tried to bring his hard member to Donna's warmth. However, Donna had other plans as she moved back up between Harvey's legs. She engulfed his manhood in her mouth. She had adjusted her throat to his girth. She loved the feel of him everywhere. The muscles used in pleasuring each other were warmed and ready yet again after making love for almost 36 hours straight. She stroked him with her mouth and she felt Harvey's hands in her hair loving the feeling that he was entangled there.

He sucked in a breath and shivered as Donna's pumping and stroking increased. "God, Donna...harder, baby, faster..." he trailed in a thin voice. He was getting so close already and that's when she slowed down.

"Donna!" Harvey cried in a strangled voice. Oh she's gonna pay for that!

"Close me," Donna said deeply. With a wicked grin and a grip on Harvey's hardness wet with her saliva and his precum. I want him deep within me. I want him to cum in me hard! Donna's body was ready. She slid over Harvey to the other side of the cleared bed and lay pulling him along gently. She placed him over her spot and looked him in the eyes hungrily. Harvey plunged into her and began his own pumping rhythm and Donna's hips went up to meet him. Harvey mouthed her hungrily much like he had previously. I'll never get enough of her.

He smoothed her arms above her head and they clasped hands while Harvey lay above her. Their mouth kissing and tasting and breathing together. Harvey was so close and he could feel Donna writhe underneath him. They were so connected in that moment, body, heart, and souls. A tear escaped Donna's eye and Harvey kissed it away. At the same time he rocked her hard and she threw her legs around his waist coercing him to keep driving away within her, coaxing him with the heels of her feet urgently pushing him until he could go no further.

"Harvey!" Donna moaned as she hit her peak. Her voice squeaked again as Harvey was not much longer ejaculating into her with a moan of his own and a shudder which led to him finally relaxing as he came down from his euphoria with his head in the crook of her neck quietly and urgently whispering "I love yous" in a constant litany.

Donna stroked his head and closed her eyes and loved feeling his warm body on top of hers. His cock getting soft within her and the semen dripping from her. She whispered her own "I love yous" and "I knows". Another tear escaped from her eye as her body felt so sublime and loved.

All too soon Harvey removed himself from her and took her with him as they recovered from their lovemaking. He lay with her head on his chest. He could not fathom how much he loved her and how stupid he had been in denying them this.

Donna lazily took Harvey's hand of the arm that had settled around her. His other arm lie dormant on his stomach. They clasped their fingers. Harvey took his other hand from his stomach and looking down at her stroked another tear from her face.

"Why are you crying?" Harvey asked softly. He gathered her closer in his arms and kissed the top of her head. He could feel several wet drops on his chest mixed with his own sweat.

Donna moved her head enough to look up at him as he held her. She stroked his face with the hand that had been so tightly clasped with his during their joining and said, "Because I am so happy. It's not just this-making love-but it's how wonderful you truly are. I always knew you were a good man. I'm so happy you finally picked me."

Harvey smiled as his gaze wandered above and fell on the crystal chandelier above their heads. "Donna, please forgive me."

Donna smiled and stroked his chest laying her head close to his heart. She wanted to hear it beat beneath her ear.

"Forgive you for what? For being the other you?"

"For being a blind fool. We could have been married by now and had a family."

Donna shrugged. "It's not too late. But let's talk about that later, shall we? The name partner has been keeping the COO up way too late at night and food was a little on the light side...real food...that is. If you don't mind, I just need to sleep before we work and then go back to Louis."

"Goodnight, Donna," Harvey said as the bright afternoon sunshine continued to pour through the sheer covered curtains of the Room 305c.

"Love you, Harvey," Donna murmured as she sighed contentedly and closed her eyes feeling safe and warm in Harvey's arms.

Harvey kissed her head and he felt like the luckiest man and the biggest man in the world because he was lying there holding Donna in his arms having just chased her orgasm and then exploding with his own. There was nothing more important or better in this life than that for him. He dozed off contentedly. The lunch he had planned and room service had brought before Donna had arrived was growing cold in its silver trays across the room.

About an hour later, they were both dressed in the courtesy hotel bathrobes having just showered and finally sat down with their plan of attack on providing all the best care of the bank merger. Donna' wet red hair was slicked back behind her ears cascasding down her back in a coppery curtain. She sat at the table across from Harvey while he tried to play footsie with her. His hair was also wet and slicked back. He had to admit he was having a hard time not being distracted by his beautiful girlfriend. His foot found his way up past her ankle.

"Harvey...as much as I want to jump back in the bed with you and to say hell with this merger, Louis is going to be wondering where we are with your proposal and findings to First NY," Donna said raising her head from the file and pointing with her four-color Bic pen. She could not help but smile. They were two mature adults, but lately they were acting like two moonstruck teenagers.

"Now, do I need to walk across the room and settle on the couch in the living portion of this room."

"Sure. I want to see you walk across the room," Harvey said wiggling his eyebrows.

Donna smirked.

"Ok, ok, I will try to focus on this merger," Harvey said reaching for a cup of coffee from the adjoing tray and placing his eyes focused on the paperwork in front of him.

"I was able to reassure First Fidelity that if they stick with us as their lawyers that we can protect them from anything that First NY Bank may do to trap them into a non-negotiable position."

"You mean you guaranteed them from a Kobayashi Maru? Did they believe you?" Donna asked.

"Of course they believed me. First Fidelity is our client. They were like putty in my hands..."

Another hour passed and they had hashed out the terms and conditions and the wants and needs of the merger to the advantages of both banks. Donna picked up her bag from the floor and dressed in her fresh lingerie and her dress and heels. Her hair was dry now and she brushed it down in the bathroom as well as reapplying her makeup. Harvey had come up behind her and grasped her waist.

He kissed the back of her neck.

"I know we have to go back to the office, but this was so great. I think we should take long lunches more often."

"Combined with our early morning meetings, we'll never be in the office, Harvey. What are we in high school? We have to be back and help the firm. Poor Louis can't do anything without all hands on deck, right?" She lectured as she applied her mascara.

Harvey let go of her with a quick kiss on her neck and proceeded to dress in his suit and become the Harvey Specter that the world had come to know. Before Harvey had completed tying his tie, his phone sounded. He pulled it from his jacket pocket. Donna who was packing her clothes and necessities into her bag knew it was Louis on the other end.

"Everything is fine, Louis. Donna and I have a plan of execution that I think will assure their business once the merger is complete."

"That's great, Harvey, but you could have come back here and not wasted company money for one of your long lunches. I just hope that Donna didn't catch you in a compromising position. That woman has been through enough."

Harvey smiled. "No, Donna's fine. I think she is more than fine." Harvey's gave her a sexy look to which Donna smiled and shook her head in admonishment. She laughed, though, as she turned away to make her way to the door.

"Gotta go, Louis. See you in fifteen minutes," Harvey said rushing to the door not to be left behind by his COO.

"Ok, see you when you get back here."
