You Know I Love You (Seq)

Chapter 2-Are We Or Aren't We?

Harvey looked up at the numbers on the apartment door. He smiled ruefully looking forward to seeing his girlfriend in her habitat. So much occurred in this apartment in the last few weeks. That other time seemed a lifetime ago and so did the whole Libety Rail incident. Harvey always felt at home here; and he was just realizing that wherever Donna's home existed, his home was there also. He placed his new key in the keyhole and then before he pushed the door open he frowned. He really was hoping that his arguments for her remaining at his desk would compensate their difficult leaving this afternoon after his client left.

He pushed open the door and was surprised to see Donna not sitting on her couch and falling asleep during one of her women's shows. The last three weeks Harvey had been introduced to more cable TV shows than he knew ever existed. Harvey preferred to binge watch movies when he was home to watch movies. Lately, in all honesty, neither one of them had bingewatched much of anything except each other.

"Donna!" Harvey called. He looked at his watch. It read 9:30 pm. Right on time like he said he would.

"I'm in here, Harvey," Donna called from her bedroom.

Harvey found her sitting up in bed. She had a glass of wine sitting on the nightstand. She must have been feeling a little melancholy because she always drank dark red wine when she was feeling emotional. Harvey had his Scotch and Donna had her wine.

"Hey, in bed already?" Harvey came over to her side of the bed and kissed her. He placed his forehead on hers affectionately for a moment and sighed heavily in relief.

When he pulled back, Donna opened her eyes and looked at him. She stroked the side of his face and left her hand rest cupping his jawline. She stared into those deep chocolate depths and smiled sarcastically.

"You were scared I wasn't going to be here, weren't you?"

Harvey retreated all the way back and began to remove his jacket and loosen his tie.

"No, I knew you'd be here... yes. I'm sorry about earlier," Harvey said giving her his apologetic smile and leaned his head to the side.

"That's ok. I figured something had you agitated when Mr. L left. He's one of those assume we were always together."

"He did? I just confessed to him today. Did you know that his wife was his secretary?"

"Yes. I have had to speak to Charlotte on a couple of occasions." Donna sipped her wine and comfortably watched Harvey as he undressed. He stopped at his undershirt leaving it on and then taking off his suit pants he pulled on a pair of pajama pants.

"Did you eat?" Harvey asked as he turned to Donna. He noticed she had not wanted any food from "that shitty Thai place" that she had been pushing on him and he had been thoughtlessly consuming for over ten years.

"Just had a soup and a sandwich. Did you eat?" Donna asked Harvey as he came to sit on what had become his side of the bed. He looked at Donna and she looked back at Harvey.

"You want me to stay at your desk, don't you?" Donna stated to Harvey.

"How did you know that's what was bothering me? You really seemed like you think you should leave me"

"I'm Donna. Also I know my decision on what is best for our relationship concerning work and home has been bothering me, so I know it's been bothering you."

Harvey lie down turning on his side and propped his head up with a bunched up pillow. He gently removed the magazine from Donna's hand and held her hands in his free hand.

"Donna, who's afraid now of how this relationship will not get screwed up? I know I'm the main culprit. I'm not very good at this."

Donna lowered her head and looked at their clasped hands and she placed one hand over the top of both of his and hers. How do I tell him? I'm afraid this time. For the last three weeks things have been blissful both here and at the office but we both know that's not going to last. I love him so much, but I know something will drive a wedge between us. Some argument will either start at home and continue at work or vice versa. I know we love each other but is it a good enough love to see through bad times now that we can touch and be open one with the other? I don't know and I know for sure Harvey doesn't. This is all new to him as well.

"Harvey, I just want to say that the last three weeks I have never been happier. But I know what you think and I think the same thing. We want to work together and live together and love but conflicts are bound to arise. We just have to solve them. We have to leave what is home at home and not let it interfere with our office dynamic. Anything at the firm needs to stay at the firm and not rehashing at night when we should be doing more important things like being together in whatever way we want to be."

"That sounds like the same advice I got from Lenny today when I confirmed our relationship was more than just a working one."

"He and Charlotte have been married over twenty years, so they must have worked out some system. So, I will stay on for right now; but if it gets too much and we have a shutdown in our relationship where we stop being honest with each other, then I will move from your desk to someone else's. Anyone would kill to have me. You know that."

"Yes. I know who would be first on the list if he could find a way to trade Norma," Harvey said with a chuckle.

"Louis? I'm not so sure I would want to move there. He and I are friends...not like you and I were friends...but friends."

"I couldn't bear to see you work for that overweening, overbearing, twit."

"Harvey! He really admires you so much. That's why he seems to be such a pain in the ass."

"I know. There's only one me, though." Harvey said with a huge conceited grin.

"Thank God for that. One self absorbed human being in the world named Harvey Specter is enough for any lifetime," Donna acquiesced.

"What did you just say?"

"You heard me. That doesn't mean he doesn't frustrate me to hell because I love him like hell," Donna said sliding down the bed and slipping into Harvey's arms.

"Don't you forget it!" Harvey said and kissed Donna long and deeply.

They shut out the lights and decided to make an early night of it.
