Chapter 4
As Donna entered the restroom, she merely closed her eyes for a second that when she opened she saw Scottie.
"Thanks Donna"
"For what?"
"For stepping away, I feel as if for once Harvey and me could be together without me having to worry."
"Scottie, I did not take Louis's job for you or Harvey, and I have told you already. There is nothing that you have to worry about as far as me and Harvey are concerned."
"Still, thank you."
As Scottie walked away she passed by Rachel, who just merely stood there ready to protect her best friend whether she needed protection or not.
"Donna, what are you doing? Did Scottie make you do this?"
"Rachel please. No one makes me do anything. It was a decision I made that worked out for everyone."
"You may think that, but you are hurting the people around you Donna. Mike is feeling extremely guilty for what happened, and Jessica is not intervening but she is clearly not happy about this exchange. And as far as Harvey is concerned, I can not even imagine how he is feeling."
"Rachel, trust me its better for everyone"
As Donna laid her hand softly on her stomach, she looked up and saw Rachel as she slowly understood that Donna is doing this for her child…. and Harvey's future.
As the door slammed open, Donna quickly removed her hand and looked up. Rachel took no time to turn around and see someone ready to explode.
"Rachel, I need to talk to Donna now."
"Harvey, I have nothing to talk about."
"Rachel…"
As Rachel left she looked back at Donna worried at what may happen. As soon as the door closed behind Rachel, Harvey and Donna merely stared at each other. Donna knew that Harvey was upset, but she could not back down. She had to stand by her decision.
"Listen Harvey…"
"NO, YOU listen to me Donna. I don't know what the hell has gotten into and why you decided that you can no longer work with, but I am giving you a last opportunity. Have your stuff back in your cubicle before the day ends."
As Harvey turned his back ready to walk out, Donna gathered all her courage to say one word that could possibly ruin them.
"No"
As Harvey turned around and walked towards Donna. Anger and frustration clearly evident on his face.
"What did you just say"?
Even though he spoke just above a whisper, Donna felt a shiver run down her spine. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Harvey I am not coming back."
In a quick second Harvey had Donna pressed against the wall as his hands held her arms, and his face barely an inch away from hers.
"Why the hell are you doing this?! Why are you trying to hurt me?! What is it Donna?!"
"Harvey let go of me… you're hurting me Harvey"
"Not till you tell me what the hell is going on"
"Fine! You want to know! Then listen to me… I am tired of working with you, of listening to your every order, and working myself to death for you! I need a life of my own Harvey. I am sick of taking care of you and worrying about you! For once in my life I had the opportunity to be myself and see a guy, yet when I was with him guilt had me consumed knowing that it bugged you. You know what Harvey… I am done with that. This is my life, I will do whatever I want and you have no right to intervene!"
As Harvey let his hands drop, Donna knew she said too much, but she had to… for him and her baby. Harvey took a step back and looked at her as if she were a stranger. Donna barely blinked back the tears that started to form in her eyes and her heart was beating so fast she could barely hear the silent echo in the restroom.
"You want out Donna, you got it. I wont intervene in your life ever again… and if you think that I am the reason you cant live your life…well congrats to your new life Donna. ..without Harvey Spector."
As Harvey turned around and began to walk out, Donna had the urge to stop him. To merely hug and him and tell him everything, but she fought all her instincts to do so.
"And you know what Donna. You think I will be lost without and will call you for everything... well forget it. You are just a secretary… and don't forget I am Harvey Spector… I could have your position filled in merely an hour. "
"Harvey, I would be the happiest person if you are able to do so."
