Hey guys! Thank you so much for your reviews. For the guest who asked if last chapter was the last party chapter; it isn't. There's actually a few more. Hope you enjoy this!
By the time Harvey and Donna walked to the food section, the alcohol was starting to kick in. Donna was feeling a bit dizzy, however unsure of whether it was due to the alcohol or Harvey's hand in hers. Mostly, she was really scared of not being able to hold herself; wine really did make her touchier than she dared to be. They both filled their plates, with Harvey putting double the quantity he wanted; it was a force of habit, Donna refusing to order something then eating it from his plate. They sat next to each other at a high table, their legs somehow intertwined. Just as expected, Donna reached for some cheese rolls out of Harvey's table. His hand stopped hers, his voice teasing: "I thought you said you didn't want any". Her eyes widened in surprise, before she put on her signature pout. "Harveyy! Don't be mean, I know you got this for me" she pleaded. "I'll give it to you on one condition" he started, as she waited for him to develop. "You tell me a secret. Something intense" he continued, excited.
She rolled her eyes, thinking about what she could say, as he took the cheese roll and held it. She stood up, his eyes following her trying to guess her next move. She stepped closer to him, too close, her mouth reaching for his ears. "Wanna know something intense?" she said with a sexy voice, as he nodded. "I'm not wearing anything under this dress" she whispered seductively, making Harvey's breathing difficult. It doesn't help that she bends towards his hand, taking a bite of his cheese roll straight out of his hand. He gives her a very flirty look, his eyes immediately traveling to her ass. "Stop looking at my ass Specter" she shot immediately, before he pouted: "You told me that piece of information; you shouldn't expect me not to!"
A big smile grew on her face, before she said carelessly: "You asked for it". Harvey kept looking at her across the table, unable to take his eyes off. Just when his breathing was regulating itself, Donna stood up again, walking close to him. "Let's go back to these clowns, don't want them to think I ran away" she said, before she noticed something on the corner of Harvey's mouth. She stepped so close to him that their faces were inches apart, before she put her index on his mouth, wiping off whatever was there and licking it. "Donna" Harvey breathed in a warning tone. She understood his alarm; she was provoking him, she was playing with fire. "I told you. Wine=slutty" she explained, before she took his hand and walked back towards the group they had left an hour ago.
"Look who's back, Donna and her hotshot date" one of the women said. Donna smiled slightly, ignoring her and participating in whatever conversation was going on. Harvey tried to listen, although his mind kept drifting to the beautiful redhead leaning on him, his arm now around her shoulder, her hand on his back. The couples were discussing their first impressions of each other, as one of the men asked Donna: "What did you think of Harvey first time you met him?" Donna looked at Harvey and said: "I thought he was a handsome arrogant pain in the ass", the tenderness clear in her eyes. "And thirteen years later, I now know for sure that I was right" she joked, making everyone laugh, as Harvey faked a pout. "And he is much more" she added, suddenly standing on the tip of her toes, giving him a quick peck on the lips, one he didn't expect. He tried to keep his calm as much as possible, after all they are supposed to be together, and he had a role to play that night. So he ignores the desperate longing Harvey inside of him and plays the role he wishes he had, the boyfriend.
"What about you Harvey?" Laura asked. Harvey immediately started talking. "I remember the first day I met Donna, back at the D.A's office. I thought she was super hot, and an intriguing woman. I didn't get her you know? I was used to being in control in every situation, but with her…" he said phasing out, "it was different" he continued. "Then one day, I remember you were wearing these brown trousers and a white sexy shirt, and I walked into the office, proud to have won my first case" he said looking at her, before shifting his gaze back to the crowd. "And I broke the news to her, and she looked at me and said: 'Of course you did. You have me'. It seemed so simple, and I knew I was going to be in trouble from that day onwards." he said, as Donna's eyes sparkled with tears, her heart melting. She couldn't believe he still remembered that day so vividly, and it made her happy to know that he did. She hugged him then, his arms wrapping even more tightly around her, as they made everyone around jealous of what they seem to have.
Every now and then I see a part of you I've never seen,
Birds can swim and fish can fly the road is long I wonder why.
One of these days you'll realize, what you mean to me
Every now and then I see a part of you I've never seen.
