Chapter 6

Today was their three month anniversary and Mike was stuck in the file room searching for a way to help Harvey win his case. Harvey was out of the office having a last minute meeting with the client. Donna had called Mike and told him that Harvey's gift arrived and was on his desk.

He hoped Harvey would like it. He spent weeks looking for the perfect gift. He also hoped that Harvey didn't forget, if he did Mike wouldn't be upset because he knows Harvey loves him. He told Donna, Jessica and Rachel not to say anything to Harvey. They promised not to.

After lunch Donna sent Mike a text and told him that Harvey was back. He sent a text to Harvey wanting him to read it before opening the gift.

Harvey was feeling on the edge and it was only noon. All he wanted to do was grab Mike and go home. This case kept him from seeing his lover all day.

When he got back to the office, finally, he asked Donna to get Mike. As he walked into his office his phone went off. He smiled seeing it was a text from Mike.

*Love, on your desk is something I hope you'll love. I'm still searching and don't want to leave until I find something to help you win this case. I love you. See you later. x*

Harvey looked at his desk there was a squared box on it with ribbon wrapped around it. He frowned and looked at Donna who wasn't looking at him. He opened it and sat down in disbelief. Inside in the box was a signed Miles Davis record in mint condition. Harvey had this record which was unsigned and well listened to.

This is unreal. How did Mike find this? Where did he find this? Why did he give this to me?

All of Harvey's questions were unanswered, he tried hard to figure it out. It wasn't his birthday, wasn't his father's birthday, something Harvey liked to celebrate, he hadn't won any big cases recently or brought in a new client and Louis was still alive. So why did Mike give him this gift? Donna would know.

"Donna..."

"No Harvey. I made a promise to Mike." She said through the intercom.

"But..."

"No Harvey. Figure it out yourself."

"Can't I have a hint or a clue. Come on Donna throw me a bone."

"Sorry Harvey. Mike wants you to work this out yourself, but he told me to tell you that he won't get upset if you can't figure it out by seven."

Harvey felt panicked, he knew Mike was speaking the truth when he said he wouldn't be mad. But Harvey hated to disappoint his lover and it scared him that one day Mike would have enough and leave.

"Harvey, breathe." Donna was now standing next to him rubbing a hand up and down his back. "Just calm down. He won't get mad, the puppy loves you. You can sit at your desk the rest of the day or go to the gym. I cleared your schedule for you." She spoke softly.

Exhaling heavily he composed himself, "I'll go to the gym. Tell Mike I'll be back before seven."

"Alright Harvey."

Donna watched him go. She felt bad that she couldn't tell him but she understood Mike's reasoning. Her boys loved each other deeply and that made her happy. She, Rachel and Jessica was already planning their wedding, they were waiting for Harvey to pop the question. Sighing she went back to her desk and called Mike.

Mike sighed and rubbed his eyes when he ended his call with Donna. He didn't mean to cause Harvey to panic. He battled with himself on whether or not to tell Harvey. On one side he had the fact that he told Harvey on their three week and their first and second month. On the other side he knew that Harvey had been busy but he could have put a reminder on his phone.

No, Mike was doing the right thing. He won't get mad if Harvey doesn't figure it out. For their fifth month and one year and every one after, he'll have Donna remind Harvey. Hell, their two year work anniversary was coming up as well.

Mike sighed again and went back to work. It was going to be a long day and a hard night. Harvey was going to do everything to make it up to him and he really hated it when Harvey felt guilty.

Harvey changed his mind when he got to the gym. He dressed in his workout clothes then left to go for a run. Running always helps him think.

He went over his mental list to find out why Mike gave him that record. When the pain in his side became unavoidable, he found that he ran all the way back to the office. Staring at the building in disbelief, he called Ray. On the drive back to the gym he was kicking himself because he still hadn't figured it out.

It finally came to him. There he was getting dressed after his shower and he reached for his tie. It hit him, the tie was from Mike for their first month anniversary.

Oh god, I forgot our anniversary. How could I forget? Harvey sat and carded his hands through his hair. He knew Mike wouldn't have been mad but if he was in Mike's place he would have been.

This was bad. Mike remembered and brought the perfect gift. Harvey forgot and didn't know what to get Mike. Granted he did have the perfect gift already but it didn't feel like the right time.

He finished dressing and got back into the car to head back. Donna was going to help him this time.

"Donna lets talk in my office."

She got up and followed him, closing the door and sitting next to him on the couch.

"What is it Harvey?"

"I'm not mad that you didn't tell me. I'm hating myself for forgetting and I disappointed Mike again. Donna I'm asking for help."

"Harvey you know I'll help you any way I can. And you know Mike isn't disappointed in you, he never is. That boy loves you with everything he is and with everything he has."

"I know Donna. I feel the same way and sometimes it feels too good to be true. So will you help me?"

"Of course, I'm always going to help when you need it. What do you need?"

Harvey didn't really know. What would Mike love?

"I don't know. We already live together so he has a key. He's a guy so jewelry, flowers and chocolate are out. Any suggestions?"

Donna smiled, "Two. One you could propose..."

"It doesn't feel like the right time. And I don't want to propose because I forgot something important. What's the other thing?"

"Remember three months ago you called and asked me how to make it up to Mike for what you did?"

"Yeah what about it?"

"Well I know I didn't need to anymore but I did anyways. I looked at a bunch of listings and found the perfect little house for you two."

Harvey was shocked, "What?"

"A house, Harvey. A cute but cozy two bedroom house. It sits close to the coast but far enough away to avoid storms. I had a friend do the walk through while I was Skyping. The inspector as been through it and everything checks out."

"Donna its been three months, someone probably already bought it."

"Someone already did. You did. Well you and Mike, the two of you just need to sign the paperwork."

"Donna why did you wait three months?"

"Because work got in the way, and the two of you just started this relationship off by moving in together. You needed time to adjust. Now is a good time. I have the keys and paperwork, you and Mike can sign them, go up this weekend and turn them in."

"Donna thank you. This is more like your gift then my own."

"Oh come on Harvey, Let me do this for you. I love you both and if this makes Mike happy, it will make you happy. Happy boys make a happy Donna." She smiled.

"I love happy Donna, makes my life easier. Thank you so much. Can you do me another favor and make reservations? I'll even let you make an appointment, my treat, for a spa visit since you deserve it."

Donna hugged him quickly and composed herself. "Sure. Seven-thirty at your favorite restaurant, Ray will take you home at seven to change so keep your hands to yourselves."

Harvey laughed, "No promises."

Donna went out to her desk and made the call. After the reservations were made she gathered up the paperwork and the box with the keys inside. She took them and put them on Harvey's desk. He smiled and thanked her again.

Sitting back at her desk she debated on whether or not to tell the girls about this. Tonight they were getting together for their weekly dinner. She knew they had to know but she didn't want them to know that Harvey had a weakness. It wasn't that she didn't trust them, it was that no one needed to know but her and Mike. She'll just tell them that Harvey remembered after his workout and gifted Mike with keys to a house in Maine.

With the plan in place she went back to work.

Extra notes: To avoid any confusion, Donna put the record in the box and decorated it with the ribbon. She did the same with the keys.
Also I don't know if there really is a signed Miles Davis record, but in this story there is. And I know the thing with the house is not possible but this is fiction, so all things are possible.
