Mr Darcy visits Elizabeth Bennet when she stays home with a headache. Instead of rushing into his disastrous proposal, Elizabeth speaks first. Will this allow Elizabeth the chance to see the man who has ruined the lives of both her beloved sister and Mr Wickham in a different light? First attempt at a story - ever - so enjoy!

A what if story. What if Jane had a different reaction to her experiences? What if someone new came into the picture? How would the story change?

So many novels end with the promise of marriage, and so few describe what happens after. I've often wondered about this particular wedding night, but frankly, Mr Darcy has changed so much by giving him some human feelings, I cannot imagine him, or Elizabeth, fumbling secretly in the dark anymore. Their first efforts must be heart-warming, their married life as well. Purists beware!
