For the Suits 100 prompt # 6 Careful What you wish For...

It's not often Mike dreams, but when he does, he remembers them- vividly. It’s not as if he has a choice.

Dreams come in many ways, for many reasons. There are the silly ones, the improbable ones, the hopeful ones, the ones that speak of things the conscious mind would like to ignore, and of course the ones that leave the dreamer shivering and clinging for the touch of daylight. Those are the dreams everyone wants to forget, to never repeat. But Mike isn't afforded this luxury. In fact, he has been having this dream sporadically for months now, though now it has picked up in frequency, waking him different hours of the night covered in sweat, a scream lodged in his throat. He doesn't want to remember it; doesn't want to feel it clinging to his skin like gossamer fingers- but more mornings than not, Mike finds the images playing like an endless loop.

At first, Mike plays it off as stress. No one would argue that the last six months have been the most stressful time that Mike can ever remember in his young (okay not as young as he used to be) life. But when it starts to happen more often- something light and innocuous takes a dark turn becoming terrifying in a way Mike can't explain.

Two business rivals who despise each other in real life unwittingly fall in love over social media...

"You've Got Mail"-AU

Where Mike works for the Chelsea Law Clinic and has to go up against Harvey on a case. Where they've been exchanging messages on Instagram for months without knowing who the other person is. Where Harvey finds out he's been talking to Mike all along and has to convince him that he is not a bad person after all.

Suits 100, Prompt 93: Character A has a hiccup that won’t go away.

Mike tries everything to get rid of his hiccup while Harvey watches him amused and tries to support him. He might have an idea to save the day...

I rated this mature but maybe it’s rather teen and up, I couldn’t quite decide...

Thanks to @lawsonpines13 for the beta!

“PINEAPPLE. –hic–“

“Mike?”

Oh God, he couldn’t stop looking at the kid.

“PINE-AP-PLE. –hic–”

Even though he should know better.

Even though they both should.

Mike was his young associate and occasionally still reacted like a teenager but even though Harvey liked his women experienced and feisty, there was something about that puppy behavior that made him throw all principles overboard.

Unfortunately, Mike did the same and every now and again they would end up drunk enough to have an excuse and make out feverishly as if there was no tomorrow.

But there was. And tomorrow meant Harvey was the boss and Mike his subordinate. And those types of things were bound to go wrong. That’s why it never went further than kissing. A tiny voice in the back of their heads seemed to prevent them from making an even bigger mistake. Every morning after, however, they danced around each other in a weird, slightly uncomfortable way because who were they kidding? They both wanted more. And every new day, they failed a little more to hide it.

“PINE.AP.PLE. –hic–”

“Excuse me?”

Harvey still stared at Mike, realizing once again he was in way too deep. The kid had managed to worm himself into his heart, his entire life and if he was honest, Harvey should have seen it coming. Everything from that goddamn first encounter had led straight to this point. Every little detail had made him fall harder for him and the fact that he had been struggling to get rid of that stupid and annoying but at the same time incredibly endearing hiccup for the past few days now almost made Harvey grab the man by the arm and into the next bathroom to finally claim him, despite all the cons he had compiled on his mental list.

“What on earth are you doing?” Harvey finally asked and shook his head in amusement.
