This is my first fanfic so its probably really bad


Elizabeth Bennet opened her eyes. Did she wake up before for her alarm she wondered. Rolling over unto her side she glanced at he clock. The red numbers glared the time, seven o'clock. "Crap!" she sat straight up. She must have forgotten to set her alarm and now she had overslept. She jumped out of bed and ran to the shower ramming her elbow into the door frame as she did so. She was ready in record time and she went out the door and drove out of her driveway.

"Great," she murmured to herself, "I've been up for like an hour and already this day already sucks." After sitting in traffic for over an hour she finally arrived at her office only a half an hour late.

Almost as soon as she walked out the elevator she heard a voice behind her shout, "Elizabeth...Liz." She wheeled around to see her boss's secretary, Alyssa White, calling out to her. Noticing that she had caught Elizabeth's attention Alyssa continued, "Mr. Weiner wants to see you."

"Okay, give me a few seconds and then I'll be right in." and with that Elizabeth ran into her office threw down her briefcase and ran back out. In a few seconds she was entering the open door to Mr. Weiner's office. "You wanted to see me?"

"Oh Elizabeth! Good morning, yes...yes I did want to see you." he motioned for her to sit down and was then silent. In background Liz could hear the daily noises of her floor. Copiers, printers, and the constant murmur of telephone conversations and meetings. Mr. Weiner stood up and began to pace as though he wasn't sure about where to begin.

"Well..." Liz prodded.

"Right...well...I guess I'll start with...ummmm..." he paused for a moment and then continued. "We gained a new case today." Liz looked at him puzzled because they gained new cases everyday. It was a normality to gain a new case when you worked at a law firm. She didn't know how to respond and decided that it was best to keep silent and let him continue when he was ready, luckily she didn't have to wait long. "A Mr. Bingley has asked us to take care of his law suit. You may have heard of him, the case has made a few newspapers. Actually, I believe that your sister's last article was about the case, well at least the main points of the issue since the case hasn't started yet." Liz had read this article herself only about a day ago. It was a well-written article, but then again Jen always writes good articles; however, the story just didn't interest her. It was something about a father dying and leaving everything to his son; however, the father's secon-in-command claims that he did not leave his company, Bingley Corp., to the son. There was some later will or something, Liz wasn't really sure and she hadn't honestly cared at the time.

"Yeah, I've heard of it." Liz responded.

"Oh good, then I just cut right tot the chase." he said. "Well I'm," he paused for a second unsure whether or not he should really do this but then quickly decided that he had to and continued, "I'm giving you the case."
