That morning they fall asleep, get up later than they should, take a quick shower together, and now they're in their dressing room, getting ready to go to the office.
Neither speaks, only the sound of hangers and their coffee cups hears leaning over and over again on some nearby surface.
Donna is still in a robe, she doesn't know what dress to wear.
Harvey is in front of the mirror, making the knot of his tie. Donna, without saying anything, begins doing it herself, making Harvey move his hands from there.
"Donna, I know how to do this."
"I know. I just like to do it." She says shrugging her shoulders, settling the knot with the tips of her fingers, and putting her hands on his chest. "It reminds me of when it was the only time I could touch you. Accommodate your tie, your suit." She whispers.
Harvey smiles. "I like that you do, it wasn't a complaint."
"Good." She says and gives him a short kiss on his lips. "I don't like having to hurry in the morning." She frowns.
"It's okay if we're late one day."
"Mhm... We can't."
"Please…" He says, kissing her neck.
"Harvey!"
She wants to walk away, but he grabs her by the waist and kisses her.
"Wear the blue dress, the last one you, or me, bought."
"Why?"
"Because I really like the way it looks in you."
"A little weak argument for a lawyer."
"Please." He smiles at her.
"Ok." She rolls her eyes.
She looks for the dress and takes off her robe, wearing just her underwear.
"It should be a crime for you to do this to me."
She smiles at him and bites her lower lip. "We can't be so late, Harvey."
"I know, I know." He sighs.
Donna begins to put on her dress and approaches Harvey with the back zip still low.
"Can you help me?"
"Of course." He says, stroking with his fingers down Donna's spine.
"This doesn't help." She wants to laugh, but she sighs, enjoying the contact.
"Mhm... Don't you?" He asks and strokes her spine with his nose.
"Harvey!" She says, wanting to complain, but enjoying it.
"What Donna?" He asks, leaving kisses on her skin.
"I can't resist you."
Harvey smiles on her skin and with his hand still on her back, opens a drawer and pulls out a rose from there.
Still, behind Donna, he passes his hand in front of her, with his other hand hugs her by the waist and whispers in her ear.
"Happy Valentine's Day, my love." Donna smiles. "You thought I'd forgotten." He giggles.
Donna takes the rose and turns so she can look at him.
"Happy Valentine's Day." Harvey hugs her by the waist and kisses her tenderly. "And yes, I thought you'd forgotten."
"Mhm... And you?"
"Me, what?"
"Did you forget it?"
"I could never forget the first Valentine's Day I'm going to spend with the person I've always wanted." She whispers, tenderly.
"Hey... I love you." He whispers on her lips, stroking her nose with his.
"I love you too." She responds by putting her hands around his neck. Harvey's hands go up to her bareback as he kisses her.
"Tonight we have a date and I convinced you that you'll wear the dress I wanted without you noticing, 1 Specter - 0 Paulsen." They giggle.
"Can you help me this time?" She turns, turning her back on him.
"I can… Especially, because I know I'm going to lower the zip tonight" He whispers in her ear and kisses her neck as he doing it.
"It's also my favorite part." She turns her face a little so she can kiss him.
When they are about to leave the house, Donna looks for something in one of her drawers and gives it to Harvey. He laughs when he sees it.
"There are traditions that we won't break." Donna says.
"Did you leave this on my desk all these years?"
"Who else could it be?" She rolls her eyes. "It's a chocolate with strawberry filling. You never really thought of me?"
Harvey smiles and opens the chocolate, but instead of biting him, he gives it to Donna in her mouth. She bites one piece and Harvey eats the other half.
"That's how I always wanted to eat it." Harvey says and she smiles.
A/N: Happy Valentine's day to everyone! :)
