One thing I haven't been getting since like... maybe the Dizzie kiss chapter is reviews. I don't know if people like it or hate it or anything. So I'm gonna need some assurance. If I don't have any more reviews in 2 weeks time I will stop writing these and focus on a big Supernatural that I'm planning. I really, really love it when you review and it's not that hard to write something like 'I like it' or something. I still get new followers (HELLO!) but I'm not getting any reviews, so yeah. 2 weeks guys!
William Darcy looked over at the sleeping form beside him. The way her hair was, originally placed neatly down one side now slayed across the pillow, The way her eyelashes curled upwards, in an arch like that of a rainbow, the way her lips were partly open. She sighed a little in her sleep. Suddenly her eyes flashed open and she turned to look at Darcy.
'What are you doing in my bed?' She asked, looking scared and edging her way out on the other side.
'Lizzie? What? We're dating?' He replied completely confused.
'I can't stand the sight of you Darcy,' She spat his name out like a poison, 'Why would I want to date you? Leave now and never come back.'
'William?' Gigi came into the room. 'William what are you doing, Lizzie's here. We have to get you out of here' Gig began ushering him out of the room. 'Darcy come on get up, Lizzie's here!' He felt Gigi's arms around him again before she slapped him.
'William Darcy wake up this instant!' The moment he heard that he realized. It was all a dream, a terrible, terrible dream. He awoke immediately.
He was still wearing the blue shirt and tie from last night, having fallen asleep on one of the arm chairs facing the door.
'Lizzie!' He got up immediately upon seeing her and began to straighten out his hair.
'I'm sorry, I didn't expect you so early!'
'Well, I was tired last night, after studying for so long, so I decided to cut the crap and just come around in the morning, it wasn't important was it? I mean you said morning was fine but…' She paused awkwardly. 'nice shirt' She smiled as he finished fixing his hair, and his shirt and tie (They had become crooked and loose), stepping in closer.
'You do? It was a present I received only a few days ago, Saturday night I believe' He raised one eyebrow as he too, narrowed the gap between them. Gigi, silently left the room.
'And the tie?' Lizzie said playing with it.
'At first I thought it too formal because I wasn't going out but I can see now that it has certain, redeemable qualities' He smiled as Lizzie pulled it down and pressed her lips to his.
'really? Because I'm sure you'd look better without it' he smiled again, breathing a laugh.
'As much as I'd like to do nothing with you today, I did invite you over here for a reason' He pulled of his tie.
'oh. Okay'
'Close your eyes and come with me.' He said, wrapping his tie around her eyes and taking her hand to pull her towards his bedroom. He pushed her carefully into a sitting position on his bed. Before leaving her for a few moments. When he came back, Lizzie had taken off the makeshift blindfold and he had to hide the box behind his back.
'Elizabeth Bennet close your eyes, or you will not be privy to the surprise' She smiled again and closed her eyes. When she opened them at Darcy's request, he was kneeling in front of her, holding a wooden box about the size of both of her palms. He placed the box in her hands and sat next to her.
'What is this?' Lizzie asked opening the box. She gasped. 'It's beautiful!'
Sitting in the box on a silk pillow sat a perfectly crafted Ruby held in it's place by perfectly polished silver.
'It was my great grandmothers. My Great grandfather gave it to her as a gift 2 years before he proposed. He said that it was there to remind her that however far away he might be, she held his heart in that ruby. When she died, it was passed down to grandfather to give to my grandmother, and my father to give to my mother. And now, I'm giving it to you. He pulled the ruby out to reveal that it was in fact a necklace. Lizzie lifted her hair up and, after a few tries, Darcy fastened it around her neck.
'Lizzie you already know how I feel about you, this is just another way that I can tell you how much you have changed my life. I never expected to give this to anybody, but the moment I saw you, this necklace was all I could think about giving you. Think of it as a late birthday present'
'William, I can't accept this. I mean it's probably worth a small fortune'
'And you are worth far more than that. At least… double'
'Double?'
'Double' Darcy affirmed.
'Only Double?'
'At least double a small fortune, And since fortunes are relevant to who is talking this means that you are irreplaceable. Your worth is unable to be counted. You Elizabeth Bennet are the most important person in my life at this very moment. '
'I love you too William' She takes hold of his collar again and this time he doesn't resist as she continuously presses her lips to his.
Darcy felt as though he would be content for five hundred years in the state he was in. Lizzie was in his arms for the foreseeable future. It wasn't until she began unbuttoning those buttons that he came back to reality.
'I can't Lizzie, not today I'm sorry'
'Okay, that's fine' Darcy shifted uncomfortably.
'Not that it wouldn't be… nice it's just…'
'You know what? It's fine, I just wasn't thinking.' Lizzie fixed her hair and stood up before walking out of the bedroom. Darcy followed.
'You know what? I have plans, with Charlotte this afternoon, I'd better go. I'm sorry. I'll call you!' She picked up her bag and left the hotel.
Lizzie was in Darcy's dreams again. She awoke like last time and was confused about Darcy's presence. That was until he remembered the necklace, and all of a sudden his Lizzie was back. She kissed him again.
'You know what I love about you Darcy?' She rolled over in the bed to face him.
'what?' He smiled in return.
'You're so gullible. I mean, you actually believed that I could fall for you? A year ago I couldn't stand the sight of you and you think all of that's going to change? You think that giving me a dead ladies necklace is going to convince me to love you? I am never going to love you Darcy. You are going to die alone because how could anybody all in love with a pitiful excuse for a person such as yourself and as soon as you get that into your inconceivably thick and dense cranium the sooner you can get out of my life!'
Darcy didn't sleep again that night.
