A/N: Hey everyone! LAST CHAPTER! Yay! I made it through my first fanfic! *awkward celebratory dancing*

Thank you all for sticking with me on this it means to so much to me.

Another (I know) thanks to my awesome beta Anon Mouse 1776, who help me right to the last line, literally.

And yeah hope you guys are happy with how this ends.


It wasn't till Tuesday till she saw Darcy again. He had come to the house with Bing for a lunch out with the Bennet sisters.

She took a double take when she saw him, to make sure that he was actually there. He was. He was standing next to Bing, wearing a white light blue shirt, dark pants and a dark blue bowtie. This made Lizzie's heart race even more than it already was.

He didn't speak though, he just stood there and made Lizzie even more nervous than she already was. She needed to thank him for what he had done for Lydia and apologize for what she had said to his aunt, though he might not know about that since he possibly didn't watch her videos any more. No matter she would do it anyway, but at the moment it was very difficult, with her sisters, mother and his best friends around.

She needed him alone.

"So," Bing said as he put an end to her thoughts, "I was thinking that café across from Carters for lunch. Well if that's ok with everyone."

There was a mumble of agreement from everyone.

"Then let's get going" Bing said, and his usual grin spread across his face.

"Alright dearies I hope you have a nice time" said her mother as she ushered everyone out the door.

"OH wait" Jane said, as she stopped. "I have to post something to Boston, you know for my new job. Would you guys mind taking separate cars, so Bing and I can stop off at the post office. I am so sorry."

"It's ok Jane; we can take separate cars you know." Lizzie said in her sarcastic voice, as she thought her sister couldn't get any sweeter.

"Actually, can I come too?" asked Lydia. "I need to get some things from the post office."

Everyone agreed even though, they had no clue what Lydia needed at the post office. Lizzie thought it was a plot to avoid Darcy. She obviously was not comfortable with Darcy after what he had done for her. Lizzie wasn't bothered, though, because this meant she would be able to talk to Darcy one on one.

When Lizzie and Darcy were finally driving in the car was the first time she spoke.

"Darcy, I just wanted to say, while we had a moment alone, thank you for what you did for Lydia. Ever since I found out I have wanted to thank you and if the rest of my family knew they also would want to say thank you also."

Darcy looked shocked at this and made Lizzie worry even more but said "I am sorry, but how did you know it was me that bailed your sister out? I had planned it to be anonymous."

"Ah well Lydia told me that she saw the check with your name on it when she was signing her release forms, after I caught her buying you a thank you present, it's probably is nothing to you but after what you had done for her and my family, she wanted to thank you. And please let me thank you again from me and my family we are forever grateful" She said, happy that she was driving and had to focus on the road.

"If you do thank me let it be just from you. I do respect your family but, they don't owe me anything. When I did this I only had you in mind."

She was shocked by this so much that she was speechless. Did he still care for her?

"Lizzie, look. You are too kind to mess with me. If your feelings are the same as they were in October let me know at once. My feelings have not changed, but one word from you and they will not be an issue again."

Lizzie slowed down to the red light and was able to look at him when she said "My feelings, my feeling are not the same as they were on Halloween, they are actually the opposite."

Then he smiled. It was probably the biggest smile she had ever seen on his face and to know that she cause it made her so happy. In that moment all she wanted to do was kiss him but the light had turned green and they had to continue driving.

"I saw the video of the re-enactment of you and my aunt" he said, still with the smile on his face.

"Oh yes, I apologise for that. Let's just say… I wasn't in the best of moods."

"No, no don't apologise. I am grateful for it because it gave me hope. I knew you well enough that since you had no trouble in telling me what you disliked about me to my face, that you would have no trouble in telling my aunt." He said the smile still on his face.

Lizzie laughed at this a responded. "Yeah you don't know me well enough of my bluntness that I could easily have shamed you to your family since I did in to your face."

"Well, what did you say that wasn't true? I was horrible to you when we met. I had manners but I just didn't use them. 'You're arrogance, pride and selfishness made you the last man I could ever fall in love.' They were harsh but they were true. And the pain from those words made me want to change, not just for you but to be the person my parents raised."

"Wow, when I said them I had no idea they would have that affect."

"They did, but let's no focus on the past and what has been done. Let just focus on the future."

The rest of the drive was wonderful. Both of them talked, laughed and smiled about all sorts of things, both just happy that the other felt the same way.

When Lizzie stopped the car after, having arrived at the café, she unplugged her seatbelt and turned to face Darcy, properly this time. He had also turned to face her.

And then without any introduction his lips were on hers and a spark shot through Lizzie. She hadn't expected it but didn't back out. It wasn't a long kiss but it was full of love and passion. It was their first kiss.

The lunch was great. The food was great. The people were great. And Lizzie loved the fact that everyone was clueless about why she and Darcy were in such a good mood. It made her happy to think they knew something the others didn't-their first inside joke.


A/N: So that's it. Hope you liked it.

Might write again soon, I think Ill leave it up to the real writers for the meantime ,but who knows.

If you would like to read something a little different though, check out my story Him, its a short one shot about what Lizzie could be thinking since she got back from Pemberley. I know, self promoting, shame on me.

Still would love to hear all your thoughts on this chapter or the whole story, so please review or send me a PM, its great hearing from you all.

Hope you're having a good day or night where ever you live :)
