Author's note: Hi everyone, well... this is the first fanfiction I've ever made and I speak spanish so, if there are any mistakes, let me know please. Thank to whoever reads this :D
Darcy was seated in his office, checking some reports before its due date. Work really had accumulated since... well... the incident, as Gigi called it.
A soft knock on his door called his attention.
-Darcy...-
-Lizzie- she looked a little nervous and doubtful. He stood up and walked to her. She remained silent.
-Lizzie I...-
-Darcy, please I... I have something to tell you-
-Go ahead-
-It's not that simple-
He closed his office door.
-How?-
Silence.
-I'm sorry-she said in a whisper-... I just... I'm so sorry about everything I said about you in my videos before; I didn't know you very well and I... I misjudged you- she took a deep breath and continued, rambling a little- I'm sorry that I called you everything that I called you because you're not that and I'm sorry for the way I treated you before when you said... when you said you loved me-
She looked at her feet to organize her thoughts. Then, taking the last of courage she had, looked directly to his eyes.
- But also I wanted to thank you for everything you have done, for me, Lydia and, I suppose, Jane too-
She looked down again, at the floor. Her cheeks flushed under his intense look. He walked closer to her and lifted her chin with his index left finger. She was so vulnerable right now. Her eyes, once so livid, were now full of doubt and fear. Why doubt?
She leaned in a little closer to his mouth, he understood but made no movement. He wanted to say so much to her.
- I should be the one making apologies -
- For what? -
- For the way I expressed my feelings that day...-
- Do you regret it? - She said with a small voice
- No, not a single word - he said immediately - I said, what I thought at the moment, what I considered the line between you and me. I pretend it to ignore it. Now, thanks to this time you have dedicated to me, I can see there's no line. Just pride... pride and prejudice that kept us apart-
She startled a little at his words. Could this mean that he still loved her? After all of the mess of these past months, after laughing of his feelings towards her in front of thousands of viewers, he still loved her? This was crazy.
- These past days had been an agony without you, without knowing the outcome of the circumstances of your little sister that compromised not only her, but also your family -
Lizzie looked up. He cared, oh god! He cared! The only answer to her dilemma surged directly from her heart, he cared, HE LOVED HER.
She closed the gap between them and kissed him softly. Darcy responded to the kiss immediately, wrapping his arms around her slim waist. Her hands buried in his hair as they deepened the kiss.
When they pulled away and rested their foreheads together taking deep breaths, they knew, they just knew… that this was love.
