His Pride and His Prejudice

Chapter 1

A young man not more then five feet tall with a very thin frame and long chestnut hair pulled back with a blue ribbon taming the wild curly mess. He had on a vest that matched his ribbon with a white dress shirt and dark breeches. His big, bright, green eye's sparkled as he admired the white roses he carried in his thin arms.

He spotted a maid hanging up bed clothes on a line to dry, "Good morning!" He said while his full, petal pink, lips pulled back into a beautifully charming smile.

The Maid was dazzled by the sweet boy, "Good morning, Elijah! Gathering roses for your sister again?"

Elijah smiled sweetly as he thought of his beloved oldest sister, "Jane dose love her white roses. They're as beautiful and pure as she is." He said with admiration in his tone.

Just as soon as he finished telling that to the maid a beautiful young woman with blonde hair and crystal blue eyes opened the front door to their cozy little home, "Off adventuring again, brother?" Jane's sweet voice carried over to his ears.

His eyes softened as he looked at her very innocent face, "Why yes, I have been! Can I bribe you to keep my secret?" He said with an amused smile.

Jane smiled at him, "I always keep your secrets, Elijah." She said sweetly.

He closed his eyes with a soft chuckle as his long dark lashes dusted his cheeks, "And I keep yours, Jane."

"Come brother, lets put these beautiful roses in some water before they wilt." Jane said as she eyed the lovely bundle of roses in Elijah's arms. He smiled at her as she slipped her arm through his and pulled him along to the house.

As they walked inside as they heard an older sounding man say, "Have you heard the news, Mrs. Bennet? Netherfield Park is rented at last!" He announced to their mother.

Mrs. Bennet, a well rounded, sensitive, woman, gasped in delightful shock as the other members of the home gathered around in their sitting room.

Three other young girls and an older man with an almost grumpy appearance. It was Mr. Bennet and their other sisters, Lydia, Kitty, and Mary.

Lydia, a sprightly young girl, with auburn hair, and honey brown eyes, with a spray of freckles across her cheeks, smiled at the news.

Kitty, a petite, dark brown haired girl, with dark brown eyes, looked on with a sweet shy look.

Mary, a very strict, uniformed young lady, with dark brown hair always covered by a bonnet, and dark blue eyes hidden behind a small pair of spectacles, looked on with disinterest.

Mr. Bennet, an older man, with short white hair, and dark blue eyes, also hidden behind spectacles, mirrored Mary's disinterest.

"To who, Sir William?" Mrs. Bennet asked with a sprightly interested tone to her voice and a look of wonder and curiosity on her face.

Sir William, a rounded, balding older man, smiled down at Mrs. Bennet, "Why a Mr. Bingley from London." He said with enthusiasm.

Mrs. Bennet's face took on a very shocked face and her mouth took on an O shape as she looked up at the older gentleman. "A single gentleman?" She asked with interest.

Sir William's face brightened even more with a huge smile, "Oh, quite! Single and of good fortune too. At least four or five thousand a year, I hear."

Mrs. Bennet gasped in delight while she placed her hands on her face in a look of glee. "Oh! A rich, single man! How lucky for my girls!" She said as she looked over at her children. "Because I expect he will marry one of them!" She said while her children blushed. "Jane is the oldest, and the prettiest but, the other girls have their good points too! Mary is quiet, but talented with her piano and reading. Or if he likes a shy cute girl there is Kitty who is so smart and charming. And of course if he likes the lively girl Lydia might catch his eye." Her eyes sparkled brightly as she looked up with wonder, "Oh! Just think how happy they will be!"

Sir William chuckled in shock amusement, "The man has not yet arrived, and already you have married him off."

Mrs. Bennet chuckled, "Nonsense! I am only thinking of his happiness... And his estate, of course." She looked up in wonder again, "A young, wealthy man to marry one of our girls. All we need to get started is for someone to get us an introduction!" She said as she looked at Mr. Bennet from the corner of her eye.

Mr. Bennet sighed with exasperation as he held his page of the book he was reading, "By which you mean me, I suppose."

"It will be the work of an afternoon! Well, several afternoons..." Mrs. Bennet explained.

Mr. Bennet placed the book down and held his chin while he thought about it. He then, clap his hands together as he faced his children. "My daughters, your mother has found you a husband. Of course, she knows absolutely nothing about him, except that he is rich." He said as Mrs. Bennet looked up at him with glee. "Are you interested in meeting him?" He asked his daughters.

Lydia scuffed, "If he's not a handsome young soldier, then what do I care?"

Mrs. Bennet gasped in shock and horror written on her face, "Lydia is joking papa!" Elijah said suddenly. "I'm sure my sisters would love to meet him. Even I would like to meet him, to see if he is a worthy suitor, of course." Elijah said with a pink hue dusting his cheeks.

Mr. Bennet waved his hand with furrowed brows, "No, it's settled. I have no intention of wasting my time chasing after this young man. Of that you may be sure." He said as he grabbed his hat and jacket, "Come, Elijah, I have some business to attend too. Join me." He said as he turned toward the door.

"Oh! Mr. Bennet, please! You must do this for the girls!" Mrs. Bennet rushed over to Mr. Bennet with a look of utter horror and worry.

"No, I have made up my mind, dear. Elijah! Come!" He said as he walked out the door with Elijah following.

Despite their long marriage, Mrs. Bennet was never able to tell when her husband was teasing. Mr. Bennet and Elijah visited Netherfield park that very day. Two weeks later, the Bennet sisters prepared to meet Mr. Bingley for the first time, at a country ball with the Bennet son in tow.

"Children! They're coming!" Mr. Bennet hollered impatiently as their coach arrived to take them all to the ball.

Jane clicked her tongue, "I can't believe you wont tell me anything about Mr. Bingley." She said to Elijah. "I wonder what he will be like..." Jane said as her and Elijah slid into the coach side by side.

After a long ride in the coach they arrived. The Bennet sisters and Mrs. Bennet, stood around in the foyer waiting for Mr. Bingley's appearance, while Elijah and Mr. Bennet stood outside waiting. Finally they arrived and Mr. Bingley's blue eye's sparkled as he looked at the glorious ball, "Did you ever see such a beautiful ball!" He exclaimed to the others that followed him as they climbed out of the coach.

"Welcome, Mr. Bingley!" Mr Bennet greeted Mr. Bingley.

"Oh! So nice to see you again, Mr. Bennet, Mr. Bennet." He said as he bowed slightly to Mr. Bennet, then Elijah.

Elijah bowed, "Yes, It's nice to see you again, Mr. Bingley."

Mr. Bingley's smiled brightened, "I'm so happy to have such nice neighbors!" He turned to the people that were standing behind him, "This is my sister, Caroline." He waved his hand to a elegant, short, young lady with curly red hair twisted up into an up do. Her blue eyes seemed almost dull like she would rather be somewhere else. "My other sister, Louisa, and her husband, Mr. Hurst." He waved his hand to another red haired lady and an Italian looking man with black slicked back hair and a spectacle. They all bowed in greating. "They're visiting from London!" Mr. Bingley said with a bright smile on his face. He then turned to a very tall, serous looking man, with dark wild hair kept back with a few loose hairs flying every which way. His wide shoulders and angled face gave him a ruggedly handsome appearance. "And this handsome fellow is Mr. Darcy, my very closest friend." Mr. Bingley introduced.

Mr. Darcy's bright blue eyes looked at Elijah as if trying to figure out if he was a man or a woman. Then his eyes looked over at Mr. Bennet. "Pleasure to make your acquaintance." Mr. Darcy said to Mr. Bennet.

Mr. Bennet smiled as they shook hands, "Delighted!" He said then turned toward Elijah, "This is my son, Elijah Bennet." He introduced.

Elijah's small pink lips parted as he looked up at the very tall Mr. Darcy. He was at least a foot or more taller then Elijah. Mr. Darcy's eyes looked him over. Elijah found him self feeling very vulnerable under Mr. Darcy's silver blue gaze as Mr. Darcy took his smaller hand in his larger hand. "Pleasure to make your acquaintance, Mr. Bennet." He said as he bowed slightly forward as well. His eyes never leaving Elijah's.

Elijah licked his lips quickly, "Elijah, please, call me Elijah..." He said softly.

Mr. Darcy's lips pulled into a sort of half smile but, then it was gone just as quickly as it appeared. "Very well, Elijah."

Saying Elijah's name sent pleasurable shivers down Elijah's spine, making him shiver. Elijah tried to suppress it by standing a bit straighter.

Mr. Bennet cleared his throat making the two men's eyes shoot to him along with everyone else, "Well, please come in, everyone is looking forward to meeting you!" He said as he turned to go inside.

When Elijah tried to turn to follow he realized that his hand was still in Mr. Darcy's. He looked up at Mr. Darcy, puzzled until they locked eyes again. His sliver blue gaze held a heat that Elijah was not expecting. Did he know? Elijah asked himself, dose he know that I like men?

Mr. Darcy's gaze held onto Elijah's a second longer then he let go of Elijah's hand. Elijah quickly walked away from him scared that this tall, handsome, man would tell everyone Elijah's dirty secret. Only Jane knew, and Elijah hoped that Mr. Darcy didn't know as he walked up to stand next to his father.

Mr. Bennet turned to wave his hand at his wife, "This is my wife," he then waved to his daughters with Jane in front, "and these are my daughters, Jane, Kitty, Lydia, and Mary." He introduced all the while Mr. Darcy's eyes never left Elijah.

Elijah blushed as he looked down away from Mr. Darcy's unbelievably bold gaze. Mr. Bingley, blushed as well, as his eyes took in Jane's beauty.

"I do hope you'll enjoy yourselves this evening." Mr. Bennet said with a smile.

"Oh, y-yes, I'm sure we will! R-right, Darcy...?" He said as he patted Mr. Darcy's arm all the while still looking at Jane, while Mr. Darcy's eyes were still on Elijah. Elijah licked his suddenly dry lips as he tried to look away from his gaze.

Mr. Darcy finally broke the gaze to look down at Mr. Bingley but, his eyes looked back up, only to find Elijah suddenly not were he was. Mr. Darcy looked around franticly as he realized everyone was moving farther into the ball room. Mr. Bingley pushed him in. His eyes searched for the small beautiful young man, that he had ever laid eyes on. And he wasn't sure but, it seemed like Elijah was just like him.

Mr. Darcy loved Mr. Bingley but, always knew that Mr. Bingley loved women. Mr. Darcy knew that he had no chance and even subjected himself to secretly desiring him. But, one look at those bright green eyes, small pink lips, and small almost feminine body, had Darcy's blood running hot. He had never been so unbelievably attracted to another person before.

Mr. Darcy's heart raced as his gaze finally found those gorgeous green eyes he sot, only to find out that Mr. Bingley was pulling him toward them. Elijah and Jane stood side by side Jane looking at Mr. Bingley and Elijah's big eyes, widened at the sight of Mr. Darcy. Mr. Darcy wondered how else he could make those eyes widen.

Elijah looked away with a dust of crimson on his creamy white cheeks. He looked so unbelievably adorable, thought Mr. Darcy.

"Excuse me, miss Jane...?" Mr. Bingley said a little shyly.

Jane looked up at him with her beautiful crystal blue eyes with a pink blush dusting her cheeks, "Yes, Mr. Bingley...?" She asked just as shyly.

"Might I...? I mean...?" He cleared his throat, "May I have this dance?" Mr. Bingley asked and Jane nodded her head as he smiled at her. They went to the dance floor leaving Elijah and Mr. Darcy. But, nether noticed or cared as they're eyes were lock on each others yet again. Elijah's heart drummed in his chest as Mr. Darcy walk up closer to him still.

"M-Mr. Darcy..." Elijah said and bowed slightly as he tried to stop his body from quivering.

Mr. Darcy's lips pulled back in a half smile just as before when they were shaking hands. "Elijah... Seeing as you prefer me to call you by name you may use mine. You may call me Fitzwilliam or Fitz if you prefer." He said as he bowed slightly and looked at Elijah with slightly amused eyes.

Was he mocking me? Elijah asked himself as his blush deepened. "Very well... Fitzwilliam. Do you mind if I call you..William...?" He asked as heat grew in him.

Fitzwilliam took another step closer to Elijah, "Not at all. It sounds good on you're lips." He said as his voice deepened.

Elijah looked away as his face turned completely crimson, "Mist-W-William..." He started to call him Mr. Darcy but, corrected himself as he became embarrassed. "P-please... People are watching..." Elijah said as he looked around them but, no one was really paying any attention.

William moved slightly away as he too looked around, "Very well, come with me." He said quickly as he took Elijah's hands and started to drag him along. Elijah wondered where this handsome man was taking him and just what was he going to do to him when they got there?
