"Answer. Damnit, answer !"
Emma threw her phone away. She was devastated.
She took a slow breathe. There were tears in her pale eyes.
"You fucking arsehole. You're a jerk."
She cursed him once again before looking for her phone once more.
She dialled a different number this time.
"Lizzie ? It's me, Emma."
"Hi, Emma. Wait a second. Mary asks me if you know where Darcy is ? He should have pick his sister up and he didn't."
"I don't have a clue. Elizabeth, I..."
She was sobbing. She choked.
" Oh my ! What's the matter ?"
Lizzie's tone was filled with concern.
"George doesn't answer." Emma whispered, not wanting to make it more real.
"Well, wasn't he mad at you ?"
"He always answers. Always."
"There's something else, right ? You're not crying the hell out of you for that ?"
"There was aa huge car crash near his office, in front of the coffeeshop where... Lizzie. Will didn't take any of your calls, right ?"
Realization just hit her.
"Yeah, Georgiana thinks he forgot his cell phone but why..."
"We're on Thursday. George and Will had lunch together." Emma cut her off.
Her heart missed a beat. They didn't answer. Her world was collapsing around her and she felt so helpless, useless at best.
"Should I warn his sister ?" her friend asked, murmuring.
Mary was with her, after all.
"I don't know. Jane works at the hospital, right ? Call her and ask if... Ask."
Emma's voice was only a whisper. She felt broken.
"Do you think..." Lizzie tried to ask, hesitant.
No, she just doesn't to. George was okay. He was. There's no way he... He...
Emma took a long breathe.
"Emma ?"
"It's a really serious accident, Lizzie. Some people involved died and a few others are badly injured. I'm going to try to call George again."
Emma closed her eyelids.
She called George. Each ringtone was a knife in her heart.
She was such a mess.
It was her sixteenth call. She had made herself the promise to cease calling George at the twentieth. He picked up. She heard a slow breathe.
She laughed.
"Bless Him. Thank you, thank you, thank you... I'm so sorry, I.."
"Emma ?"
It wasn't George's voice. She cried.
"Noooooooooo. Nooo... No ! He's okay. He's okay."
Hi guys ! I'm an hopeless fan of Pride and Prejudice, and I love Emma even more.
So, my fanfiction will be about three love stories : two you should have guess, Emma/Knightley and Elizabeth/Darcy and another I wanted to try -tell me what you think- : Mary/Georgiana.
The chapters will surely be quite short -after all English isn't my mothertongue and it's my first fanfiction about both stories.
Obviously, I'm Jane Austen -a bit hard to update from my coffin, though.-
This story is Modern AU -I think you get by now but we never know- so facts will change and I don't really follow the canon.
Characters included here :
From Emma : Emma, George Knightley, John Knightley, Emma's sister, Eton and some more.
From P&P : Elizabeth, her family, Darcy, Richard, Lady Catherine, Anne, Georgiana, Wickham, the Bingleys I think.
