This is from episode 1x07, and changes both the scene in the hotel room and at Harvey's condo. Characters can be slightly OOC
Mostly Scottie's P.O.V.
Placing his suitcase on the hotel room table Harvey asks her, "You have the preliminary proposal?"
Scottie scoffs,"No, I just flew in from London completely unprepared." She says as she throws her file on the table. "Try not to be intimidated, I used some big words." Harvey replies and throws his own file over Scottie's. "Overcompensating isn't that big of a word." "It isn't." Really Harvey.
"I can hardly wait to see the work of a senior partner." "I see my promotion popped up on your Harvey Specter Google alert." Yes, of course she knows about his promotion, it's not Google alert but she does check up on him. "That's not all that is going to pop up." As Harvey sees Scottie advancing on him, he takes a step back. "Woah, wait!" He sees her look at him with confusion in her eyes. "What's wrong?"
"I can't do this with you anymore Scottie. I'm in a relationship, have been for 4 years now." He sees Scottie's eyes grow big and he swears he sees her shoulders falter, "What, with who?" Scottie is really curious now, Harvey Specter has been the ultimate bachelor for as long as she's known him and she always thought if anyone was changing that, it would be her.
"With Donna." She feels her heart break even more when she sees the big smile on Harvey's face when he says her name.
"Donna? Your secretary?" she sees Harvey nod excitedly, "Wait, you've been with her for 4 years?!" Please tell me you misspoke is all Scottie can think at that moment, but when she hears Harvey's reply her heart breaks even more if that's even possible. "Yes, almost 5 years now!"
You know what, maybe this is a sign, a sign that she should marry Collin and forget about Harvey.
"Wow, that's great Harvey! I'm happy for you. Have you thought about proposing?" Last chance Scottie, she says to herself, if the answer is yes you get over him. "Yes, I have this beautiful ring, that's just perfect for her, and I already have a date. I'm thinking about making her go on a scavenger hunt and I want to have the engagement party at the bar we met." There it is Scottie, you wanted closure when you came here and you got it.
"So I know this is totally unprofessional, but I haven't seen Donna all day and she's making dinner. Is it okay if we continue this at my place?" Oh god, what have you gotten yourself into Scottie.
She looks at Harvey and melts at the hopeful look on his face, she has never been able to resist the Specter charm, although this time it's used for an entirely different purpose than it used to.
"Are you sure? Won't she be weirded out that you are bringing another woman home?"
Please let Donna be super jealous, Harvey has always hated the clingy girls.
She doesn't know what to think when Harvey chuckles at her question.
"No, absolutely not. She knows all about you, and she always loves having guests over for dinner!"
Well, there's that, clearly not the jealous type Scottie thinks. Wait he told her all about me?!
"Wait, you told her about me?" Now she looks really confused. "Yes, I've known her for 12 years now, and I don't have to tell her anything, she just knows everything. It's kinda creepy, to be honest." It would sound like he was making fun of his girlfriend, but the love in his eyes and the ginormous smile on his face indicate otherwise.
"Okay, let's wrap things up here and we can get going." Harvey immediately agrees and puts his things in his briefcase.
Half an hour later they are standing in the elevator on the way to the top floor. "Oh, she's making pasta! 5 dollars it's pesto penne." She looks up at Harvey and smiles at the look on his face, "You really love her don't you?" Harvey looks down at her and his reply both breaks and warms her heart, "More than anything in the world.""This may be none of my business… But I just want to know something… Would you give up law for her?" Harvey looks at her confused but answers her immediately, "In a heartbeat, why do you ask?" Scottie is sure she looked like a desperate girl, but she couldn't help but ask. "Just to give me an idea of how invested you are."
Suddenly the elevator comes to a stop and Harvey bounces on the balls of his feet excitedly, "We're here! Finally!" Pressing the button to open the door, he immediately steps outside and motions for her to follow him. The image that Scottie sees next is one she was not expecting, there in the living room is Donna, standing up to greet Harvey with a baby in her arms.
If her heart wasn't broken beyond repair she's sure it now is. After having given Harvey a kiss, she sees Donna turn around to greet her, "You must be Scottie, I'm Donna. It's nice to finally put a face to the name." Either this woman is a brilliant actress or she's really the perfect woman for Harvey.
"Likewise, and who is this little guy?" she points to the baby boy in Donna's arms who can't be older than 5 months. "Oh yeah I forget to mention that, sorry." Really Harvey, that's all you can say.
"His name is Noah, but he's not ours, one of my girlfriends wanted a date night with her husband and the babysitter cancelled. We thought it be good practice, right Harv?" Donna answers with a soft smile while slowly stroking the baby's face. "We don't need practice babe, we are naturals!" Oh Harvey, glad to see some of you hasn't changed. "Haha, yes you do Harvey." Scottie quips at the man. She sees Harvey relent and wonders how much of him has changed. "Yeah you're right, I do need practice, she however doesn't, it's like she's the baby whisperer." Okay very much changed indeed. Both her and Harvey look over at Donna when she suddenly makes a strange noise, "Oh someone needs to have his diaper changed!" Scottie thought she was all out of surprises for the day, but she is proven wrong when Harvey speaks up, "Give me the kid, we'll have some bro-time while you girls finish dinner and talk." Harvey walks over to Donna and carefully takes Noah from her arms, "Oh yes, you do smell do you. Well, let's make you smell nice again, we can't have you smell like this in front of the girls can't we?" Hearing Harvey talk like that to a child that is not even his, makes her smile when she thinks of how he'll be with his own kid.
She feels Donna's hand on her arm and wonders what would happen between them without Harvey present. "Let's go to the kitchen, we can set the table and dinner is ready in like 30 minutes." Scottie follows obediently and stands next to Donna who is kneeling on the ground to check the pasta, "So Harvey told me you guys have been together for almost 5 years now." Donna turns her head around from her kneeled position on the ground. "Yes, it's been quite some time yeah. I just hope he is going to get his head out of his ass and propose soon." "I don't think you need to worry about that." From the look on Donna's face she knows she said the right thing, however she's not sure Harvey is going to be happy with her.
"So you knew him back at Harvard right… Have any fun stories?" Donna asks her with a cheeky smile on her face. "Oh I can go on all night!" Scottie replies with a matching grin.
15 minutes later Harvey walks back into the kitchen with little Noah in his arms. "You girls having fun?" He hasn't yet looked up from his gaze on Noah and when at last he does he instantly feels a warm feeling of contentment spread through him, both girls are looking at him with cheshire cat grins and Donna is laughing at Scottie's phone. "Scottie… What did you tell her?" Scottie looks at him innocently and counters, "I didn't tell her anything… I showed her." Crap, is all Harvey can think, she must have shown Donna the photos of that horrible Halloween party.
"You should mail the photos to her, then she can frame them and look at them all day." Harvey sounds like he's very serious but the look in his eyes tell a different story.
"Babe, dinner is ready in 10 minutes, I'm going to put Noah in bed." When Donna walks up to Harvey to grab the little boy out of his hands he can't help but pout. "Can't I do it?" Harvey tries, but he knows it won't work on Donna. "No, you are going to discuss the merger with Scottie." Harvey tries one last method, but fails miserably, "Oh don't you dare go pouting on me, Specter!" "Okay, fine! Come on Scottie." Scottie can't help but grin at the situation playing out in front of her. "Harvey, it's nice to see you in a healthy stable relationship." Harvey turns around and grins at her, "Yeah, I really like it! Who would have thought huh, I wouldn't have ten years ago." Scottie smiles softly at him and asks with a careful voice. "Harv, when are you going to propose? Cause she's waiting for it." The look he gives her is a mix between excitement and apprehensiveness, she finds it to be quite adorable. "Did she say something?" Harvey asks her nervously. Well here it goes, "Directly quoting her own words; I just hope he is going to get his head out of his ass and propose soon." She sees Harvey's eyes widen and can't help but chuckle. "She really said that? I was going to propose to her on 12-12-12, because the number 12 has a big meaning to her, but that is 9 1/2 months away. Maybe if I propose to her sooner we could get married on 12-12-12?!" If they weren't currently talking about how and when he would propose to his girlfriend, she would propose to him herself, this was the committed Harvey she always dreamed of, sadly enough he wasn't committed to her. "I think you could pull that of yeah, are you going to do the scavenger hunt thing?"
"Yeah, I think I will, our 5th year anniversary is in 2 weeks, I'm going to propose to her then!" Scottie doesn't want to feel jealous but she can't really help it, she always thought she would be the one to get him to settle, and now he is going to propose to another woman. Looking up at Harvey's face she is taken aback when she sees the look on his face, it's one of determination and devotion, deciding to help the guy out she asks him, "Okay, so you want to do a scavenger hunt right? What are locations that absolutely have to be included?" She sees Harvey contemplate his answer and waits for his response, "She'll start at PH, then go to her apartment, then to the batting cages and as the last stop Central Park where I will be and then we'll take a boat onto the lake and I'll propose to her there. I'm thinking Jessica at PH, Rachel at her apartment and Mike at the batting cages." Wow, he has really thought this through. "You know what, let's just have dinner and I'll pop by your office tomorrow and we'll discuss the merger then." Harvey looks at her sharply, "Is everything okay?" Scottie sighs, "It's just a lot for me to take in, I came here expecting you to welcome me with open arms, and now I'm here… It all just feels a bit surreal." The smiles she gets from Harvey seems pitiful, but she knows he doesn't mean it that way, "I know what you mean, but it was 6 years ago when you last saw me, a lot could have changed in that time you know, and it has. I'm actually kind of surprised you didn't know about it because a few years ago it was all over the news…" What is he talking about thinks Scottie, his relationship was all over the news? How come she has never heard of this? "What are you talking about Harvey?" She swears she sees dHarvey look down with a hint of shame in his eyes before looking her straight in the eyes, "A few years ago we had this lawsuit against the firm and the opposing counsel had a bone to pick with me and he kept looking for weak spots to hurt me with. Eventually he found out about Donna and he came at me with this bullshit talk about an arrangement with my secretary and published an article about it saying I forced her to things sexually and professionally, so when I found out I kind of went a bit insane, and professed my love for Donna to everyone who would hear it during court. It became this huge thing and people were going crazy, we almost broke up because of it." How the hell haven't I heard of this?! It sounds like something Harvey would do though, "Why did it become such a big thing? Wasn't it in a closed court hearing?" The grimace on Harvey's face says it all, "Well, there were a lot of partners present during the hearing and we later found out that the bastard recorded the hearing because he thought he would win or something, the video got leaked and the media went crazy for it calling us either the power couple of law, or they were against the whole secretary/boss situation. It simmered down eventually with the occasional rumour of Donna being pregnant or a rumour of us being engaged. I'm guessing it will begin again when we really do get engaged and get married." Okay how didn't I know about this?! Before she can ponder about her obliviousness any more, she sees Donna walk in the room. She looks at her and Harvey and asks if they are ready to eat. Harvey gets up and walks to Donna, before she can get up she hears Harvey ask her, "Scottie could you give us a minute, I need to talk to Donna real quick." Scottie is slightly confused but answers anyway, "Sure, do you want me to wait in the kitchen?" Harvey shakes his head, "No we'll go to the kitchen, we'll give you a shout when we are finished." Scottie nods timidly and looks at Donna who gives her a smile.
Harvey grabs Donna around the waist and walks with her to the kitchen. "Harv, why did you do that? She is our guest we can't just leave her alone." Donna hears him scoff and looks up at him in bewilderment, "Sure we can. I haven't seen you all day and I want a proper kiss from you."
Donna doesn't reply but the look on her face says it all 'are you for real'. "Come on, Donn! I know you want it." Harvey tries to poach her into it by flicking his lips and leaning his head closer to hers.
Donna contemplates her options and decides to give in, no harm done right? Grabbing Harvey by his neck she places her lips over his bottom one and slowly sucks on it. She immediately feels Harvey smile against her lips obviously happy with his victory, he places both of his hands on her buttocks and pulls her flush against him. Donna slowly swipes her tongue over Harvey's lip and he grants her entrance immediately, when their tongues touch they let out a moan simultaneously.
Moving the hand that was resting on his chest, she places it on his cheek on slowly halts the kiss, removing her tongue from his mouth she pecks his lips multiple times before pulling away completely, "We still have a guest babe. We can continue this later." Already expecting the pout he is about to give her, she quickly pecks his lips and steps out of his arms. Walking back into the living room she notices Scottie watching a video on her phone, curiosity gets the best of her and she sneaks up behind her to see what it is that she is watching. When she sees that it is the video of Harvey's court love confession from a few years back she can't help but comment on it, "Quite the YouTube hit that video was, it has like 5 million views." She sees Scottie jump out of her seat and turn around quickly, "Donna! Gosh, you scared me!" Donna can't help but grin, "Sorry, dinner is ready." Together they walk back into the room and notice that although Harvey finished setting the table he is looking at Donna with a strange look, Scottie is quite curious as to what is going on in his mind and asks Donna, "Why is he looking at you like that?" She hears Donna snicker beside her before she replies, "He is horny, that is his 'I want sex but I'm being denied' look." Scottie chokes on the breath she was taking, "What?! But he didn't have that look all afternoon?" "Yes, but he just groped me in the kitchen and I told him no, because we have a guest and Harvey doesn't like the word no. So now he is being a little baby about it." Scottie can't help but laugh at that, although she wishes she was the one Harvey was committed to, she can clearly see why Harvey is so crazy about Donna. She seems like a strong and not to be defied woman, who will get anything done that she sets her mind to. "Well, let's eat and then you can put him out of his misery." Wow, Scottie never thought she would say that, she hears Donna laugh wholeheartedly and looks at her when she counters, "Oh there is no rush, he is a grown man, he can wait." Suddenly Harvey's loud voice booms through the room, "Ladies! I want to eat! Stop gossiping and get your butts over here!" Her and Donna walk over to the dinner table and quickly sit down.
Scottie never thought she would have this much fun and loves all the stories Harvey and Donna tell her and in return she tells a few of her own. When at the end of the night she walks out and gives Donna and Harvey a big hug, she can't help but think that despite her initial disappointment, she had a lot of fun, and even if it's not her, she knows Harvey has found his perfect woman.
