So I am hoping that this will be the last delay in updating. I had to unexpectedly move and we just got everything sorted in the new house (including internet). Sorry for the delay!

To .jg: There may be something in the works like that :) Don't you worry, everything will come out in the end.

To Guest: There is no missing chapter, and I understand how it can be a little confusing. Every other chapter is in a different place. Odd chapters are in the real world and even ones are in Harvey's comatose dream. Hope this clears up the confusion!

To all my other readers: You are wonderful and amazing! You encourage me everyday to keep this story going!

Harvey's Dream

"Rachel I can't do this. Harvey and I are just starting to figure things out. This will ruin it." Donna stood outside the building of PSL and she had never been more afraid in her life. The car ride back was filled with girly talk, baby names, and the potential that the little one brewing in Donna's womb could have a cousin sooner rather than later. Rachel and Mike were planning on trying to start a family as soon as the marriage license was signed. They had too many obstacles come up in the past few years for them to waste any time. Donna was happy for them, but it was going to be a bomb in Harvey's lap when she walked into his office. They avoided that topic completely in the car.

Rachel gently pushed the door open. "You have too. Things don't stay quiet in this firm and you know it. If anyone else gets wind of you being pregnant then you know how it is going to look."

Donna hated logic, but the brunette was right. Her relationship with Harvey was not common knowledge yet. If it came out that she was pregnant and then came out that the two most powerful people of the firm were together everyone would take that as confirmation as to how she got her job. They already had enough rumors around the water cooler about them. A baby would have people wondering even more.

It was exactly sixteen steps between her office and his. Sixteen steps that she took twenty minutes to complete. Her stalling was cut short when the man she was trying to avoid came up behind her.

"Donna?" He had watched her meander down the hall way for at least five minutes. He was on his way back from an unexpected court meeting, and could tell that she thought he was in the office. It was never like her to procrastinate. The only time that she did was she had bad news. He really didn't need any bad news today. "Care to come into the office rather than lingering outside?"

She jumped at his voice. She tried so hard to keep her wits about her, but they were failing. "Harvey, we need to talk." Her voice cracked. Donna watched his brow furrow in confusion and worry. She could see the wheels turning to places that were dangerous. "I'm not leaving you Harvey, so don't even start with that thought, but I do need you to sit." Every moment made her heart jump out of her chest. He sat behind his desk while she closed the door. Her hands were shaking.

He had never seen her this nervous. Even when facing jail time, she had never been so unsure. "Donna what is going on? She ordered him to sit so that is what he was doing. He wanted to break their agreement about keeping their personal lives at home and pull her in close. "Whatever is going on we can fix it."

She chuckled slightly. There was no fixing this situation. Donna played around for a few minutes about how to tell him. In the end the best way was to be straight forward. "I'm pregnant." After saying the words, she stood in the middle of his office never feeling more alone. She wanted to turn and run, but she waited for an answer. An answer that took a life time to come. He had not moved. It was almost like he had zoned out to the point of not hearing anything around her. For a moment she wondered if this was the start of a panic attack. "Harvey please say something." She couldn't be sure if the fear in her voice was because she was afraid of his reaction or afraid for his health.

There were so many things that crossed his mind when she said that they needed to talk. The first, of course, was that she was leaving. No matter what that would always be something that would haunt his nightmares. Second was that someone had single handedly managed to find the one key to tearing the firm to the ground. It was not something that existed, but always a worry in his mind. Third was that Mike was going to start a yoga club somewhere and he was going to have to find a new guy to get to do his dry cleaning. (The two of them had a standing bet that there was no way Mike would be a lawyer forever. The bet got larger and larger each year and at this point Harvey would owe the man a boat.) The list went on and on, but never in a million years did Harvey Reginald Specter expect to hear those words come out of her mouth.

For that reason, there was nothing that he could think of for a response. His mind tried to process the information, but it was almost impossible. He was not a father. He could not be a father. He was too much of an ass hole to raise a child. Too focused on himself. Donna did not want this with him. There was no way that when she agreed for them to make something of each other that kids were in her mind. She knew the man that he was. However, there was a flip side. He would be lying if he said that he didn't like kids. Any time he went to see his brother he almost insisted on having an afternoon with his girls. Harvey made sure that he spoiled his nieces rotten on the few occasions that he visited. He had never envisioned himself as the parental kind, but now that the chance was presented he was curious as to what it could bring.

It was a delicate situation.

"Holy Shit." The words were a little above a whisper coming out of his mouth. They weren't malicious though. He didn't blame her in any way for the situation that they were currently faced with. Slowly his face turned into a smile. This was a chance for them. A chance that he was sure Donna had given up on a long time ago, especially since he did.

The rushing wave of relief almost had Donna on the ground. She marveled at the way he could use those two words to convey so many different emotions. Despite not saying that he was okay with it, his inflection told her all she needed. They were going to make this work. He was not going run like he had with every other change in his life. She let out the breath she was holding, and he was right there next to her with his arms wrapped around her. The little control that she had was lost and a few tears fell.

She smelled like strawberries. Every time his nose was buried in that flaming hair it was all he could think. "So I guess we should tell the rest of the office about us then huh?" He felt her chuckle. Then something dawned on him. Louis was aware of their relationship. The other named partner had to know in the event something ever came up around the water cooler. When he did find out, Harvey had to agree to go mudding and let Louis have the rest of the week to process the information. It was now crossing his mind how much this new development was going to freak the other man out. "Please let me tell Louis!"

Fast forward five months and the couple were now sitting in their OBGYN office about to confirm the gender of their child.

"Good afternoon Dr. Boody. Ready to admit that I am right?" Donna teased the man who was flipping switches on the ultrasound machine. The two of them had a bet going on the baby's gender. She was pretty sure that the doc had just chosen the other one because she was so confident in her choice.

The doctor just chuckled. "Only if you are ready to pay up. Now shirt up. You know the drill."

She did indeed. Due to the risk, she had been in for very regular ultrasounds and workups. They were keeping a very close eye on her progress.Dezpite pu!lingit out of the wamer, the gel was a bit chilled and she flinched when Dr. Boody applied it.

At the appointments Harvey did his best not to look or act like he was scared shitless. The normal confidence he had evaporated when they walked in. Donna had asked him what made him so nervous after the second visit where he said all of two words the entire time. He dodged the question for a week and then let her know. It was the ultrasound itself that scared him. For a few weeks after she told him about the pregnancy, he was plagued with nightmares that normally included them going to an appointment and the baby suddenly not being there. Doc had tried his best to reassure them that everything was going well and that He had full confidence in getting this baby to term. Donna reached over and intertwined their hands just before they heard the soothing and familiar heartbeat of the little one growing inside her womb.

"Okay." Dr. Boody gently moved the wand around her lower abdomen. "So right there is the baby's foot." With all the visits Donna was starting to get good at seeing the different structures of her child. "And right there tells us all we need to know. Mom. Dad. Meet your baby girl!"

Look for the next update on Tuesday! Some questions are going to be answered.

Again I am so sorry about the irregular updates. Sould be back to normal now!
