Suits (My Worst Partner-Enemy)

My Brilliant Idea

8PM. ~ Harvey's Condo ~

We sat on the couch and I cuddled against his chest. His hand wrapped protectively around my waist. "You know? It's not too much your fault over what happened with Zane." I mentioned. Harvey kissed my hair. "It's not? So far everyone doesn't agree." He muttered. I nodded in disagreement and smiled. "You didn't make Rachel do the case. She chose to do it because she is determined to climb up the ladder. I didn't agree over her going against her father because you don't turn against your own family, you just can't. Using daughter vs father was never a good idea." I explained. He sighed deeply. "Yet I done it. I'm surprised you're not making rule 139 of why I'm an asshole." He said annoyedly. I parted from him and looked at him in disbelief. "What would make you think—I paused taking a deep breath. "Don't think like that. Why would I think you're an asshole? All you tried to do was save the firm from more crap. Sure, you may done things a little differently but it doesn't make you a bad person H. If you were in a case against my father, which I seriously hope not, he would get incredibly ticked if I was involved. But only because he sees me a child instead of a grown ass woman. You were only doing your job and Jessica wants you to do your job without leaving scraps. You messed up but nobody died. There's still more we can do to win the case. Don't talk low of yourself whenever you mess up." I advised. The whole time he unknowingly stared at me admirably. I giggled. "What?" I asked. Harvey smirked, nuzzling my nose with his. That made me giggle. "Your humbleness is out of this world." He whispered. I madly blushed and cupped his face. "You are out of this world." I whispered. We kissed passionately. The statement is far from a lie. His brown orbs and the Prince Charming smile. Yet his confident wit was really my turn on. I caressed his hair while his hands roamed my back seductively. He began kissing my neck repeatedly. I smiled due to almost feeling tickled. We slowly parted. Harvey hugged me from behind with his arms crossing my chest. His head buried onto my neck. "You don't think I'm an asshole?" He whispered in my ear. I scoffed and smirked. "You're an ass of course." I joked. His fingers hit my underarm which made me jump. "Don't you dare!" I chuckled through gritted teeth. He grinned boyishly and held me closer. The loving warmth felt absolute amazing. "As long as you don't think low of yourself, you're perfect." He whispered. I smiled warmly and felt a hundred butterflies. My phone buzzed on the end table. We parted, letting me grab it in case if anything's wrong at home. Surprisingly, Rachel texted with a video.

Rach💜💁🏽‍♀️: remember this?🤭😂😂😂

"Who's that?" Harvey asked. "Rachel. She sent me a video asking if I remembered it." I told him and pressed to play it. My eyes immediately widened amusedly. My brain clicked in remembrance.

*Rachel shown the camera to Elizabeth smiling giddily, clasping her hands. She was dressed as Michael Myers. Rachel giggled quietly. "Ok, go." She whispered. She put on the mask before slowly approaching Donna and Maya who faced the TV and sipping a wine glass. She crept behind her while raising her black-gloved hand in order to touch her. "Hey Rach, where are—She paused and gasped fearfully, dropping her glass. "What the hell?!" She screamed angrily. The ladies except Donna bursted into laughter. Elizabeth smiled victoriously since her prank worked. "Liz, I'm gonna kill you! You made me spill my wine!" She growled, getting off the couch. She instantly ran off and Donna chased after her across the kitchen. Maya shrugged. "Better get started on her will." She spoke before turning back to the TV.*

Me and Harvey couldn't contain our laughter. "Oh my god, that was good!" He chuckled. I almost thought Donna was gonna throw me in the deep end. "Golden prank number 200!" I chuckled. He grinned amusedly. "What happened? Did you survive?" He joked. I scoffed and smirked. "Baby, please. She know she can't kill me. I'm un-killable like the Terminator." I sassed. Harvey laughed and raised both eyebrows. "I am the Terminator. I came to kill you." He quoted, sounding like Arnold Schwarzenegger. My cheeks burned redder. "Somehow I find your accent cute." I muttered sexily. He smirked while pinching my cheek. "When was this video?" He mentioned. The date was October 12th. "October. The scare and prank month." I said, smirking. Harvey hummed in response. "Now that's got me thinking of doing a prank. But I don't know which target to point at." He suggested. My jaw dropped before settling comfortably on his lap. "Pranking with my boyfriend? Hot." I whispered in his ear. We kissed passionately while his arms wrap around my waist. I wrapped my arms around his neck. "Come terminate me Specter." I muttered flirtatiously. Harvey brushed a strand behind my ear and kissed my neck. I fought an urge to moan. I cupped his face and kissed his lips. His large hands traced onto my butt. "Oooo!" I whispered/yelled once he gave a quick squeeze. We continued making out, that is until my brain clicked. The idea for Folsom Foods. Oh, well we'll discuss during work hours.

On the way to the school, Avery talked nonstop about acing all her soccer kicks. That dragged Harvey into the conversation of teaching her how to play baseball. Mike and I went over my exact Folsom Foods idea before finding Harvey at a bagel stand. "I had an idea about Folsom Foods!" I blurted. He raised an eyebrow. "You both too?" He asked in a surprised tone. We looked at him weirdly. "What?" Mike asked. "You are not getting my bagel." He told us. "Why would I want your bagel?" Mike asked confusedly. I pursed my lips disgustedly. "I don't even like bagels." I added. Harvey ignored his question. "Never mind. What do you got?" He asked. "We checked the review of every promotion from the last five years. Every time they don't promote a woman, they use some combination of the same sixteen words." I explained, walking beside him. "And the men?" He asked. "No." Mike answered. "What are those words?" He asked. "'High-strung, sensitive, aggressive, abrasive...." Mike trailed off. "Coded language." Harvey finished. I nodded. "They went out of their way to shield themselves from any one person, particularly female, bringing a gender discrimination suit, which means they treated all of them the same." I finished. "As a class." Harvey added. "Yeah, and guess how many?" Mike spoke.

~ At the Courthouse. ~

"A hundred-thirteen female employees across all twenty two divisions, you know what they have in common?" Harvey asked. I scoffed. "All denied promotions due to the fact they're women." I spoke. "Not that they're untalented or pathetic or lack the fortitude to excel in their chosen field." Mike said. Robert sighed. "This is a crock of shit." He said, referring to the document. "You didn't want to settle for $2million. You'll be lucky to settle for $200million. Robert, play all the golf you want. Judge Benjamin isn't gonna get you out of this one." Harvey reminded. With that, we walked out. Mike smiled. "That was genius Liz. You really kicked ass on this." He complimented. Harvey raised an eyebrow surprisingly. "I thought it was both of you?" He asked. "You'd be more surprised if I explain. The important thing is I, a woman, won the case against female employees getting dragged because of their gender. And it feels so damn good!" I cheered, smiling. He grinned. "It felt more good seeing the look on Robert's face." He added. I chuckled. "Damn right. And you're right." I agreed. Mike looked at me weirdly. "About what?" Harvey asked. "Yeah, about what?" Mike asked. I scoffed. "Derek was the biggest dickhead." I told him. Harvey didn't wipe off his amusing grin. Mine was all over the place. These women finally get the justice they deserve.

"Avery, you better not take a step on that glass!" I yelled, coming down. Apparently, she played with a glass rose sculpture that was gifted to Maya. She accidentally knocked it over which resulted into shattered pieces on the floor. I carried the broom and noticed she stood a feet away from pieces of glass. "Stay there. I'll sweep it." I said firmly. Avery nodded. I carefully swept the floor and dumped the pieces in the trash. Luckily, the sculpture was only the size of a JBL speaker. I let out a relieved breath. "Are you ok? Did you get a cut?" I asked. She nodded her head no. Maya rushed in the kitchen and looked between us worriedly. "What happened?" She asked. "Knocked over some glass rose sculpture. That thing is breakable! Couldn't Jin have got you actual flowers?" I asked. Avery playfully rolled her eyes. "Right." She muttered in agreement. Maya's jaw dropped. "Glass rose sculpture? Are you kidding me? What?" She asked in a surprised tone. I shrugged. Some things are meant to be the real thing.
