Narrative:
ATC had given us a 090 degree heading, then cleared direct hrv. Programmed FMS, but failed to push LNAV button. Aircraft remained on 090 degree heading for about 1-2 mins. Prior to ATC asking us, we turned aircraft direct hrv and then ATC asked if we were direct hrv. Apparently, no conflicts.
