Chapter 1: First meeting
Chapter Text
It was a pretty boring day, as usual. Though, you had recently gone to the hospital and found out that the bill was 25k. What a waste of money- except you didn't even have the money for it. So, in attempt to sort of clear your head, you went for a drive in the road you usually drive along. Though today was different, you noticed a stand on the road, reading the text on it, you were surprised with your luck, '1 boop(click) = 1 dollar', oh fuck yeah.
You stopped your car next to the stand, walking up to it- the guy standing there began to speak
"Hey there! My name is Harvey Harvington, and welcome to my booth! Each time you boop me, I give you a dollar, sounds like a sweet deal doesn't it?"
Oh lord he was adorable, that sweet british accent combined with the utterly adorable blue suit and pastel pink hair, you were practically praying that he was single.
But anyways, you desperately needed money so.. to business I guess, you began booping him, eventually finding a feather, and figuring out he gave a bit extra for tickling him, so, with that knowledge, you began to tickle him with the feather!
Seeing him laugh due to being ticklish warmed your heart, you adored him already. After some time, you had about 500 dollars, all from tickling and booping him. You were starting to wonder how he even kept count of how many times you booped him.
Though, it was getting boring, so, you struck up conversation! Asking him some stuff, you eventually got to the question of if he was taken, and well, you found out he was married. You were slightly devastated, but, you didn't say anything else about it and continued to talk with him while booping him.
You eventually, after hours of booping, managed to get to 25k, hooray! You stayed for a few more minutes, simply talking to him before heading back to your car and waving goodbye.
of course that wasn't the end of it though, you watched him from afar, trying to conveniently schedule some stuff, ensuring you run into him. Sure it might seem creepy to anyone that doesn't know you or him.. but to you? He was everything you ever needed in your life.
You began to stalk his wife on social media, planning to stage a small intervention, crafting a lie about his wife that would make him leave her.
It took you months to craft the perfect lie, but, after trial and error.. you finally got them to get divorced! You played the part of the concerned friend, comforting him and making sure he was happy.
You slowly dropped hints of your liking towards him, desperate to get more of his attention, all of his attention. Desperate to make him forget his ex-wife. Anytime he was at his booth, you hid in the bushes near it, watching him.
Though, your plan was soon gonna go to waste, someone else who went to his booth seemed to be making him swoon. That's unacceptable! He had to be yours! You discreetly began to stalk that person too, and bingo, you found a 'weapon' against them. You had found out that the person he was falling for had cheated on his partners multiple times, and, wanting to get him away from them as soon as possible, you made a post on the internet anonymously exposing them for their actions.
And to your luck, they got cancelled and blocked by many, including Harvey. Man, your day was much better now! And valentines day was coming up soon! Maybe you could ask him out then? Yes, that seemed perfect.
So, after about another week or so, Valentines came around. You found yourself at his doorstep, a bouquet of beautiful red roses in one hand, and a heart shaped box of his favorite chocolates in the other.
You patiently waited for him to open the door, and the second he did, you spoke;
"Harvey, will you be my valentine?"
He stood there shocked for a second, before he smiled, pulling you inside and hugging you tightly.
"Yes! A million times yes!"
Relief overflew you. You had to hold back the urge to kiss him right there on the spot. You hugged him back before he unfortunately pulled away. He took the chocolates from your hand and led you to the couch. And well safe to say, you spent that night sleeping next to him in his bed. No, you didn't fuck, not yet, it was a little too early in what you assumed to be a relationship to do so.
But you were happy. Happy he was yours, happy you had won him over.

Chapter Text
Morning eventually came around, you and Harvey woke up around 8am, making yourself and him some coffee for the morning, though, you had work so you quickly scurried off to work for the day, unable to get him out of your head, you were simply obsessed with him. When you got back home, Harvey brought up a question;
"Hey {reader}, I've been thinking, since we got together, maybe we could move in together?"
You were slightly flabbergasted, happy, but still a tiny bit shocked. You smiled at him, booping his nose as an affectionate gesture and responding to his question;
"Of course we can, silly! We practically already do live together with how often I sleep here"
You both laughed, and later that day, you moved your stuff to his house, that night was a really calm one, both of you were a tiny bit exhausted from moving boxes with your stuff in them, and both of you were now cuddled up in bed again.
Though, in the morning, when both of you woke up, Harvey's phone was dead and he really wanted to scroll through the news and see if theres anything new, so you handed him your phone so that he can scroll through the news, thinking nothing much of it since you trusted him a lot. Little do you know, he had gotten a bit suspicious that everyone he took a slight romantic attraction to was suddenly problematic, so he was looking through your phone, mostly just through the notes apps and whatnot, since he didn't assume that you would cheat (which you didnt).
You, unaware of him finding all of your schemes to drive people away from him, were making the two of you breakfast, though your blissful unawareness was soon cut to an end as he tapped your shoulder, clearly pissed off, holding up your notes app with all of the different plans to 'isolate' him. Your heart sank, this is not how you wanted the day to go at all. How did he even get in the app? You could've sworn you locked the app so that no one could see the contents of it!
"That uhh.. that's not mine!"
You quickly stuttered out, knowing it was the shittiest lie known to man, but, you had to try something, you didn't want to lose him over this, you would rather die than lose him over this.
"Oh yeah? Then how come that contains extremely detailed planning of isolating me from other people I liked? hm?"
He snapped back. Fuck, you were done for weren't you? You had two choices, either own up to it or continue lying. The only problem was that you couldn't think of a reasonable explanation containing lies, nor the truth. The only thing your mind could think of was to jump out the window and run away forever- but that's not really a practical solution, now is it? So, with a sigh, you tried your best to explain without lying too much.
"I just- I really wanted you. And, as selfish as it might sound.. with.. them in the way, I couldn't have you."
You muttered out. That was the stupidest, yet most truthful explanation you could muster up. You were terrified, what if he left you? what if he even hated you? You couldn't have that. He was yours. You wouldn't allow anyone else to take him from you, even if it meant that he would be isolated.
"You just wanted me for yourself!? You do realise how fucking selfish that is, correct? I had a wife, a son! And you convinced me that she was a terrible person. You convinced me that I should leave her, all for the sake of having me all for yourself!? Are you seriously gonna sit here and tell me that you were so fucking obsessed with me that you drove me away from the people that loved me!?"
He yelled. You couldn't even muster the courage to say anything back, you knew it was the truth. You knew it was extremely selfish of you to do what you did. No amount of words would justify your actions. He continued to yell and shout, and you just stayed silent, not daring to interrupt him.
"..I'm sorry."
You whispered when he was done yelling, you knew damn well an apology was much less than enough, but what else could you do in this moment?
"Sorry? That's all you have to say for yourself!? Are you seriously not even gonna try to explain your actions!?"
He snapped, you sighed, knowing there was nothing you could really say. He eventually stormed out of the house, seemingly needing to clear his head. You didn't follow him, you decided it was best to give him space. You spent that morning (and afternoon) sitting in bed, wondering how you could possibly even make it up to him. You knew damn well that your actions were terrible and that you should've simply let him be without necessarily interfering with his love life, no matter how much you loved him. You eventually heard him come back home, you sighed and headed over to where he was. Finding him sitting in the living room, you sighed, sitting next to him and speaking;
"..Could we, talk?"
You asked quietly, not wanting to further upset him at all, prioritizing his mood over anything else.
"What is there to even talk about? You broke my boundaries without me even realizing until it was too late. Just go away. Leave me alone."
He responded. It shattered your heart, but there was nothing much you could do about it other than nod, get up and go back to the bedroom. You were upset, but you knew he was probably 10 times more upset than you ever will be. You barely even had the right to feel upset about this, it was all your fault. You're the one that manipulated him, not the other way around.. The only thing you could really do now was just attempt to fall asleep. So, you opened the window, got in bed and headed to sleep.
