Summary: Harvey Specter + Proposal?

When are Harvey and you planning to get married?

If you want a family, you're running out of time.

When is Harvey going to propose?

Are you afraid of commitment?

All these were questions and statements you had heard in the last couple months. I guess that's what happens when you are in your thirties and still unmarried. You had been dating Harvey Specter for the past seven years and he still hadn't proposed. You weren't one who really worried about things like that because you knew that you loved him and vice versa, but you were getting sick of the questions from your friends and family. (Y/N) Specter had a nice ring to it as well. You knew that Harvey had commitment issues because of his parents, but he'd made so much progress in the past years; seven years with the same person is a lot of commitment. The questions had gotten you thinking, and you realised that you really did want to marry Harvey; he was the love of your life. also, (Y/N) Specter did have a nice ring to it.

Harvey's POV

"So, you and (Y/N) have been together for a long time now, when are you going to propose?" Mike asked out of the blue one day.

Harvey had obviously thought about it, they'd been together for seven goddamn years, he just didn't know if he was ready for marriage. He'd had issues with commitment for a long time, because of what his mother did, he found it hard to trust someone that much. Then again, (Y/N) had been there for him through thick and thin, she had never given him reason to believe she would do anything like that to him. Yeah, sure they had their fights, but they'd always been able to figure things out together. What else could you really ask for in a marriage.

Not to mention that Harvey completely adored (Y/N), she was smart, quick-witted, funny, and beautiful; there was no one better for him then her. He hadn't even looked at or thought about being with any one since she came into the picture. He would never love anyone as much as he loves her. Now that he was thinking about it, he realised that it was dumb he hadn't proposed yet. It made him wonder how (Y/N) was feeling about the whole thing.

Did she think that he didn't love her enough to marry her?

This is the thought that made him realise that he had to get up off his ass and do something about it. So, he did; straightening his tie as he stood, he marched to his office door, opened it and left. Mike sat on the couch flabbergasted.

"Harvey, where are you going!" he shouted after him, his words falling on deaf ears.

Your POV

Organising books on the shelf in Harvey's and your living room was how he found you. You had only been doing it for ten minutes, organising them by author's last name when you heard the door slam and the familiar but frantic Click Click Click of Harvey's work shoes. Not a moment later he entered the room, looking as if he'd run a marathon. Sweat dotted his brow, his tie had been loosened around his neck, and he was no longer wearing the jacket he'd left with this morning. You could tell something was wrong because he was always wary of how he dressed, always making sure he looked professional.

When he saw you, his eyes lit up, a wide grin spread across his face.

Okay, it must be something good then...

"Hey, Mr. Happy, what's up?" you asked with a grin of your own, his smile too contagious to ignore.

Without answering he crossed the room, not giving you enough time to even think, he settled a hand on your cheek, fingertips in your hair and pulled you towards him, planting his lips on yours. Usually your kisses started off slow and built up, but this one was desperate and loving, the grin still on his face. You grabbed the collar of his vest and pulled him closer, kissing him harder before you both pulled away to breathe, resting your foreheads together.

"What was all th..." you began, but he interrupted you.

"Marry me?" He stared you in the eyes as he asked.

It took you a minute to process what he had said, although you didn't reply right away, his grin remained. When you finally responded there was only one thing you could ask.

"Where is this coming from Harvey?" I asked, staring back into his eyes.

"Mike said something that got me thinking about us. I realised that you are the reason I began to believe in soul mates, because you're mine. There isn't a person on this planet that I trust more than you. I used to be so unsure in relationships, but you proved to me that some people really are in it for the long haul. No one makes me happier, you are so beautiful, kind, smart, funny, sarcastic and I love every part of you. All the good things and the bad. I realised how the only thing I want to change is how I introduce you to people, nothing would make me happier than to call you my wife. I love you (Y/N), and I'm never going to stop loving you. You are it for me. So, will you do me the honour of being my wife?" He rushed out.

Some where around 'believing in soulmates' you began to tear up, now very large tears were pouring out of your eyes, smiling even bigger than before. You couldn't even speak, hands covering your mouth all you could do was nod.

He wrapped his arms around your shoulders and nestled his face into your hair, kissing the top of your head. You could tell that he was crying too.

You stood there for a solid five minutes before you both pulled away. You stood on your toes and pecked his lips before standing normally again.

"I love you Harvey, I love you so so so much. You don't even understand how much I love you, and I would be so proud and happy to be called your wife. So yes, I say yes."

The smile on his face got bigger even though neither of you thought it could. The tears still shining in his eyes he pulled a ring from his pocket, grabbed your hand and slid it on your finger, before pulling you in for another kiss.

Mrs. (Y/N) Specter really did have a nice ring to it...
