The Cost of Harvard by Joni_Beloni, jonibeloni (Joni_Beloni), jonius_belonius (Joni_Beloni)

Summary
Mike wants to go to Harvard. Harvey and Travis can make that happen. All Mike has to do is spend one year as their apprentice with benefits. Seckshual benefits. At first, he turns down the offer, but when complications begin to occur in his life, he reluctantly signs on. As the year begins, he hates everything about the arrangement – everything except the hot sex, the attention, and Harvey, for whom he begins to develop feelings. Which sucks, because Harvey seems just as indifferent to Mike’s feelings as that asshole Travis.

Summary
Mike doesn’t expect much when he has to switch schools for his senior year of high school; he’ll keep his head down, get his work done, wait it out, and get on with his life.
Well, that was the plan.

Summary
On Harvey’s big, celebratory night, he meets Mike in a bar. As the initial sparks illuminate the cracks of self-destruction in Mike’s armor, Harvey realizes two things: he can’t take advantage of Mike’s vulnerability. He can’t stay away either.

Mike wakes up to the chance to right the worst mistake he's ever made. Well, unless he makes the same mistake twice. Or a worse one.
No, everything will be fine this time. He's got this.
Definitely.

The Awkward Life and Times of Mike Ross (Fool's Gold) by mockturtletale
Fandoms: Suits (TV)
21 Oct 2011

Summary
With the image of Harvey’s skin has come a relentless need to see more and Mike doesn’t yet know if it’s a natural curiosity, a simple sense of wonder that he has to re-learn to ignore or whether it’s more than that, and more than he can overcome. But he has a feeling that if Harvey keeps flashing his wrists like a geisha down on her luck, Mike’s going to have to find out sooner than he’d like.

Summary
New Year’s eve is all about making a future; a promise to keep all to yourself. And Mike vows to make this one count. If he managed to fuck up all years before this – well, maybe all years before Harvey hired him – then he’s definitely going to make up for it tonight.
When the clock strikes midnight, he’s going to kiss Harvey Specter on the mouth. Hopefully.

Pearson Hardman's annual new year's eve party might sound like a grand old time, but Mike has other plans. Other plans that might make or break him. There’s too many variables here, too many things that can go wrong. Fuck, maybe he should just go home.

"Hold on," Mike asked, "you made Donna come into work in the middle of a blizzard?"
"I don't make Donna do anything. Haven't you learned by now?" Harvey gave Mike a mean little smile, but under that was relief for anyone to see. "You, I can make come into the office in a blizzard."

Summary
And then someone drops a stack of files, the thwack of paper a startling sound in the space between Harvey and Mike and the scene dissipates as they both turn to look, gazes rising from the mess of paper to each other, across the hallway. Harvey dimly registers that his mouth is hanging open unattractively. Until Mike’s thought process helpfully informs him that it’s not an unappealing look for him at all, in fact quite the opposite and a faint blush rises on Mike’s throat to disappear with him as he hurries away.
Harvey decides that the only downside of making progress in figuring this lunacy out is finding that he has no idea what to do with the information it’s provided.
To blackmail or to torture? Harvey hates having to choose between his favorites.

Summary
Mike had never been to a boxing match before. A few of Grammie’s friends at the home watched them, and he’d settle down with them so they’d have company. But he’d never stopped to watch it closely. He’d never bothered to dish out the extra money for a ticket to a live fight. That had always been Trevor’s thing, the violence, the blood stains on the fabric, the thud of gloves hitting muscle and bone. He’d always thought it too much, not something to glorify, just people brutally beating the shit out of each other.
But when he first laid eyes on Harvey Specter, towering in the ring, he realized that he’d been wrong.

Summary
Mike has been wandering through the empire for six years, living on the fringes as a full time fugitive and a part time rebel. A message from his grandmother sends him back to New York, only to find himself betrayed. He is forced to rely on Harvey, who is a stranger – and exactly the sort of slick, arrogant puppet of the empire that he despises – for both his future, and to help him discover who betrayed him, and why.

Summary
Harvey Specter lives life in absolutes.
The suits he wears are elegant and pristine and almost always pressed – these kinds of suits are respected, conveying a well-educated and professional persona that he prides himself with. This is an absolute.
Skinny ties are offensive and juvenile and honestly an eye sore. This, too, is an absolute.

Harvey doesn't do feelings and he definitely doesn't care, but Mike is getting under his skin. Set ambiguously around S2.

Summary
Harvey has always put on a good show at work. He has put a lot of effort into the smoke and mirrors act, and it had worked to his advantage- until now. Backed into a corner by a law he can't side-step, he decides Mike is his only way out. They're getting married, and Mike really has no say in it. Alludes to but does not strictly follow the plot of the movie "The Proposal"(2009)
The main plot is complete. Still probably gonna post more epilogues though.
Update 06/23/2024: posted a new epilogue. Happy 12 years of Wear My Name.

Harvey sometimes moonlights as a Star Trek BNF. Mike might have an attitude problem on the internet. TiberiusGhost is strangely compelling, for a recluse who never goes to meetups, and Harvey's finding this kid Photohead vaguely familiar...

Summary
Mike has lived in New York all his life, so he's not unaccustomed to seeing famous people in real life. He once stood in line at a coffee shop behind Hugh Jackman. He saw Matt Damon at a restaurant once. One time he got into a cab that Anne Hathaway was exiting. He doesn't really get star struck. Except now apparently. Harvey Specter just walked into his shop and Mike's body is reacting, heart beating hard in his chest, breathing becoming more difficult.
Thankfully Mike is distracted from his minor freak out by someone attempting to rob him.
[or: Harvey is a famous actor who walks into the bookshop that Mike owns, and yes, this is exactly what you think it is.]

Summary
Leaning in close, Harvey murmurs, “You’re awfully mouthy for this early in the evening.”
Mike tilts his head, flirtatious confrontation as the car rolls to a stop. “Bit early in the evening to be discussing my mouth, don’t you think? Sir?”
“Tell you what,” Harvey muses lowly. “You make me look good tonight, I’ll do more than just discuss it. Fair?”
Mike gulps and nods, light-headed, and he doesn’t think it’s from yesterday’s blood loss. He can feel Harvey’s breath on his lips, smell his cologne, subtle and smooth, thinks maybe he’s gonna get luckier than he’d hoped, and then with a smirk Harvey reaches across his body and cracks open the door. “Out,” he commands, and Mike sighs, hauling his tired ass out of the car. Figures.
