Thomas straightens the edge of his suit as he rides up in the elevator, a flutter catching him slightly off gaurd. He's smitten, can't help it... and why should he? Donna is intelligent, savy and gorgeous- exactly what he's been looking for. He's falling hard and fast and when the doors ping his lips rise in a smile as they open to the back of his girlfriend's firery red hair.

"Oh, perfect timing." He steps out, meeting her surprised gaze.

"Thomas..."

He leans in brushing his hand against her arm.

"I thought we were meeting downstairs?"

The question bounces a little uneasily and he shrugs. Perks of being a client, he can come and go in the building as he pleases but truthfully he was just excited to see her. "Well I got here a little early, I thought I'd come meet you."

"Oh."

She's quick to dismiss his explanation, angling her body away from him.

"Harvey… this is Thomas-

"Kessler."

Thomas glances at the renowned lawyer not intimidated but perhaps a little wary as Harvey thrusts out his arm, his voice concealing the flash of something unreadable in his expression.

"We've met... nice to see you again."

Thomas shakes his hand. "You too." There's a beat, furthering his suspicion he just interrupted but neither his girlfriend or Harvey confirm it so he leads with an easy icebreaker. "Louis always spoke very highly of you."

There's a stiffness to the man's response.

"You too."

It lands bluntly with no follow up and there isn't much point furthering the conversation, at least none Thomasq can see and he turns to Donna curving his mouth. "Shall we?"

She returns the gesture. "Of course."

Something tugs in his chest, her smile feeling forced and he tries not to let it bother him. He'll ask her about it when they're outside, make sure everything's okay once they have their privacy, and he starts towards the elevator

"Goodnight Harvey."

Her voice rings behind him as he presses the button, Harvey's following quickly after.

"Goodnight."

She moves into the car beside him but she may as well be a million miles away, her gaze still locked on Harvey, and the flutter in his stomach drops heavily.

Maybe he's reading too much into it but if Harvey Specter is in love with his girlfriend, the man had better be prepared to swallow his famed ego because as far as Thomas can tell, Donna is happy and he isn't giving her up without one hell of a fight
