Donna Meets Lilly

Chapter 11 - Loving

Donna woke with a warm arm around her. She blinked from the dim light coming from the window blinds shining in her eyes. She noticed wet drops on the window. She kissed Harvey's arm holding her safely against him. She could feel his deep breathing in her hair and his legs intertwined with hers. His morning erection against her backside.

Harvey turned gathering her closer in his arms and inhaled her hair. It still smelled like the lavender shampoo they found in the bathroom. Lord knew how long it had actually been there, but the bottle had not been used and Harvey and Donna wanted to shower together because each did not want to be separated and desired to experience the delicious pleasure of washing each other. It was unlike their very first shower together more than a dozen years ago. There definitely was more love, passion and need to cling to one another. Previously, their shower was mainly to remove the sticky residue from their whipped cream experiment.

"Good morning," Harvey whispered in Donna's ear and kissed her hair which lie just under his chin as he spooned against Donna's back.

Donna turned over and she could see his morning scruff and the sleepy lusty look in his eyes and the big smile that brightened his whole face. She pulled the thin blanket and sheet open so she could maneuver herself on top of him. The swift rush of air momentarily chilled Harvey after the wonderful warmth of being spooned together. Donna quickly replaced the covers and placed herself on top of him. She swung her hair back and then ran one finger down the whiskers that covered his chin and kissed him on his well kissed lips.

"Good morning. Are you hungry? I'm ravenous," Donna said smiling. Sex always spawned her appetite for other things especially nourishment.

Harvey laughed as he looked at her beautiful clean morning bright skin and mussed red mane.

"Yeah, I'm hungry but not for food."

They kissed deeply and Donna straddled her legs around Harvey's waist but still lie prone on top of him. She could feel his erection so close to herself. She resisted the need and desire to plunge herself on top of his hard member. Instead she kissed him again and lay her head on his chest. Together they heard the wind blow and heard tinkling against the window.

Holding Donna pleasurably, Harvey said quietly, "If I'm not mistaken, I think it must have snowed last night."

Donna's eyes went big. "Ooo, you think we might have to stay until the Spring thaw?" She said making the prospect enticing for both of them. "We both know how bad it snows here." Donna put her arms around Harvey's head and stroked his hair.

"I bet Kate probably left some coffee around here. Do you want some?" Harvey asked lacing the fingers of his clasped hands on top of Donna's back as she lay on top of him. He was so content and happy to have Donna in his bed for real. Not a dream. It was not exactly like his bed at his penthouse but his boyhood bed. It was still big enough for the both of them.

They both smiled and then Donna said she was going to make the coffee if she found some. She could not promise his dash of vanilla, but she would work her Donna magic on it and make it palatable. She undid the covers, rose from the comfortably mussed bed and completely naked allowed Harvey a view of her backside. The air was very cold as Donna approached the window across the room. She shivered a little before she found Harvey's shirt to cover her.

"Harvey! It really did snow! There must be at least three inches in the yard."

Harvey pulled himself out from the warmth of the bed also naked and found his boxers and pulled them on with his t-shirt. He opened the blinds wider and was rewarded by early morning sunshine which reflected on the snow and gleamed brightly into the small bedroom.

He smiled again and took Donna in his arms from behind so they could both look out the window.

"You know, I'm sending a memo around that stiletto heels need to be outlawed."

"Why is that, Mr. Managing Partner?"

"Because I like you better when you fit underneath my chin," Harvey said as he laid his head on top of Donna's mussed hair.

"Well, that won't apply to me anymore since I won't be working for you," Donna said. She was so happy she forgot that perhaps Harvey had only said those things last night because he was in the throes of passion. It was important he know that her rule still was still valid although they had finally admitted how they loved each other and consummated that love.

He turned her around in his arms and kissed her deeply.

"We'll see," was all he said. "Well, woman, if you're not going to find coffee, I will."

He let go of Donna and turned on his heel on his way down to the kitchen.

Donna screwed her face as she watched Harvey's retreating figure. She then shivered and realized that Harvey's shirt was way too light. She began rifling through the chest of drawers.

"Hey, does the heat in this old house not still work?" Donna called down to Harvey as she looked through drawer after drawer. She was surprised that she found a pair of women's yoga pants and a heavy sweater. Donna pulled them from the drawer and thought they must have been either Kate's or Lilly's. There was no mistake that these clothes were new as the tags were still on them.

"Harvey!?" Donna called walking out of the door and to the top of the stairway.

"Yes? Ouch! Goddamn it!" Harvey exclaimed.

"Are you ok?"

"Yes. Just stubbed my toe. What did you need?" Harvey said rising remembering Donna called him for something.

"Who left new clothes for me in the top drawer of the dresser?"

"I don't know, but I have an idea."

Donna had put the clothes on and had found a pair of socks as well. She had descended the stairs and stood in front of Harvey as he had found coffee and was actually making it.

"Lilly", both said simultaneously.

Upon searching the house for what had actually been left there, Harvey and Donna found a treasure trove of items. Food in the refrigerator enough for at least a week. Groceries in the pantry again enough for at least a week as well as a bottle of Macallan 18 and a bottle of Chardonnay. Also enough firewood in the shed so they could have roaring fires all weekend.

Around 10:00 am, Harvey's phone rang. He had left it on the kitchen counter when he was making the coffee earlier that morning. When the phone range, he and Donna were watching an old movie on the television. Also left had been a stereo complete with Harvey's favorites of his dad's recordings. Donna and Harvey decided to keep those for a little later in the night.

Harvey answered the phone leaning over the kitchen counter.

"Hi Mom," Harvey said smiling. Donna had come into the kitchen when she heard Harvey answer his phone.

"How did you figure I would bring Donna here?"

"I am still your mother, you know. I just knew how much the house meant to you, so when Marcus moved the kids and Kate to their new house and you and I reconciled I thought it would be a nice place for you as a retreat and a nice getaway for both you and Donna."

"Donna and I really appreciate the items you left. They came in very handy. Especially the clothes…" Harvey said smiling.

Donna made a face and rolled her eyes because she could not believe that Harvey could be that blatant about why they would need clothes.

"You two come for dinner tonight at our house. Stay a couple of more days. There's enough in that house to accommodate you. I know that for sure. I stocked it myself. So I will let you enjoy the rest of your Sunday until about 7 pm when I expect you both at my dinner table."

"Thank you, Lilly, we'll be there," Donna had said as she had snatched the phone away from Harvey's ear.

Both parties hung up.

"Harvey we need to go to the Sheraton so I can pick up the rest of my clothes and check out if we're planning to stay here a couple of more days. Plus I can move your appointments from here…"

"Thought you weren't working for me anymore after last night?"

"Well, I am giving you my services for the next obligatory two weeks or until we can find someone suitable for you," Donna said as a matter-of-factly as she could. She only hoped that the work separation would not lead to a personal separation.

Harvey murmured while he made another pot of coffee. "There will be no one more suitable."

"What's that?" Donna asked. "I know no one can compare with me, but if we want our personal association to work than there has to be a separation with the professional."

Harvey's expression took on one of disgruntlement. He stood at the counter with his arms supporting his body in a defensive stance. He did not want to even contemplate not having Donna as his wing person professionally. However, he knew he had her personally and all those things that they knew about one another that had grown their relationship would continue to flourish because he still had her just not in the capacity she had been previously. Preferably he would have liked her with him all day, and that was one reason he realized why he had waited almost thirteen years to come to his senses.

Donna examined Harvey's expression. She knew he had not meant what he had said in the throes of passion. Now the only other thing to prove her mistake is if she became pregnant. Oh Lord, I hope not! Not that I would not want to have his child but a loyal and contented Harvey is much better than a loyal angry Harvey Donna thought.

"Harvey?"

"Do you need to discuss my rule again?" Donna asked carefully.

Harvey shook his head and then smiled a little. He looked right at her with love in his eyes. "No, we don't. I respect your rule."

Donna came over to where he stood and put her arms around his waist and placed her head on his shoulder.

"I'm never going to leave you, you know. Even if you want to leave me. Not this time," Donna said and kissed his shoulder.

"Humphh" Harvey made a noise from this throat. "Just try to get away from me this time. I'm done not fighting for you."

Donna smiled. She hoped that she was wrong and that Harvey had truly accepted their new dynamic. When they returned to the office, she would have to whip out that list of the best legal secretaries again. Only this time, she would pre-interview them and narrow down the list herself. That way she was still helping him. Where she would wind up either in the firm at another department or at some other place remained to be seen. Just now, as long as she and Harvey remained in this blissful bubble for a bit Donna hardly cared where she was professionally.
