Suits Slash Fic: Mike/Trevor, Harvey/Mike [1/?]
Filling my own prompt. WIP.
Prompt: Harvey finds out all about Mike's past with Trevor, including all their test scams, the drug dealing, and last but not least their sexual relationship. But he's not angry, he's... jealous? Include flashbacks of Mike and Trevor.
A/N: So I kind of mashed together events and put things out of order for the sake of the story. Just bear with me, it’ll all make sense.

Mike sank back into the couch rubbing his temples. He’d been poring over boxes and boxes of files for almost seven hours and was on his second box of pizza. Harvey had given him until the end of the week to come up with something, but he knew he had to finish tonight, not only to impress Harvey, but also just to prove he could.
He was smart enough to be a lawyer. He would actually legitimately be one by now if it weren’t for Trevor-No. He was done passing the blame to someone else. It was his own goddamn fault for listening to Trevor in the first place, his own fault for not picking better friends.
Mike intended to keep his promise to Harvey. He was done with that life now. He was back on track, on his way to living the life he’d dreamed about since middle school, and nothing could stop him now.
He heard a knock on the door. It sounded urgent. Fuck, was Trevor here to rip him a new one for that whole deal with the pot-filled briefcase? He braced himself for impact as he opened the door.
It wasn’t Trevor.
He stared at the disheveled mess on the doorstep for a moment, then he took a step back.
“Jenny,” he said, cringing.
She looked up at him, her eyes red.
“Dammit, Mike, why didn’t you tell me he was dealing again?”
“Again? He never stopped!” Mike spat, then reconsidered when he saw the pain on Jenny’s face. “I should have told you,” he said, softer, “But… I thought I was protecting you.”
Jenny’s eyes narrowed. “I’m a big girl now, Mike,” she muttered. “I don’t need protecting.”
Mike pursed his lips, not knowing what to say. Then his expression softened.
“Look, Jenny, I have something good going on now, something great, and I can’t jeopardize it, not for anyone,” he put his hands on her shoulders and looked her straight in the eye. “You and Trevor will work this out, and things will end up okay. But I’m not going to be a part of it anymore.”
She glared up at him but didn’t shake him off. “So you’re just abandoning me?” she asked bitterly.
“No, Jenny, I love you. I want you to have a happy life. You deserve it. And I wish I could be a part of it. But I’m never going to achieve my goals, to become someone I can be proud of, if I don’t break from this completely.”
“So this is goodbye?” Jenny’s voice caught in her throat. Mike nodded, unable to speak any more. Jenny hesitated, and then leaned in to kiss Mike on the lips. His eyes widened in surprise and he backed away.
“I thought-” Jenny started, confused. “I thought you wanted-”
Mike cut her off. “No Jenny, I love you as a friend. I’m sorry I gave the impression-”
Jenny’s face darkened. “Then consider it from Trevor,” she sneered.
Mike blanched, and Jenny turned to storm out the door, never looking back.
Mike flopped back down onto the couch. “Shit,” he groaned.
