A/N: Hey everyone I was really surprised at the reviews I h got when I woke up this morning. I'm so glad you like it. I just wanted to tell you that I will not be able to update for the next two weeks because I'll be in Barcelona, Spain. Terribly sorry but I do plan on having an update ready for at least two of my stories when I get back. Also I just wanted to thank all reviewers and provide you with the whole summary for this story:

Summary: William Darcy was the high school bully; his favored target was the Bennett family, particularly the second oldest Elizabeth. One day he takes his harassment too far and Lizzy snaps. Now nearly nine years after he had seen Lizzy for the last time he gets an invite to the wedding of his best mate in college, Charles Bingley, and Elizabeth's older sister, Jane. Will has grown and changed considerably but can Lizzy ever forgive him for all the torment he bestowed on her? She will at least have to try, because she's the maid of honor, and guess who the best man is.

And without further ado Chapter Two!

The Invite

"Lisa, cancel my appointments for forward me my mail and then go to lunch you look dead on your feet." Twenty-six year old William Darcy said to his secretary as he strode into his office.

"But sir you h-have f-f-five appointments t-t-today." Lisa stuttered trailing after her boss.

"I know but you and I both need rest after that hectic day yesterday. Six divorce cases in one day. Give yourself a break and just give me the mail and leave." He said smiling down at her. Lisa swooned at bit, just like every other girl that William Darcy ever smiled at, and meekly handed him the mail and scurryed away.

How could anyone not swoon at a smile from William Darcy. The rugged bad boy looks, coupled with that sweet personality made him the greatest catch ever. Not only was he sweet and good looking, he also happened to be incredibly rich. The only flaw that anyone might have commented on, on his other wise perfect face, was his slightly crooked nose. Resulting from a fight years and years ago. But with perfect silky black hair and sparkling green eyes not a single girl would say no to him on account of his nose.

Will flipped through his mail, "Bill, bill, bill, crap, crap, bill, invite to party, fan mail, ...invite to Charlie's wedding?"

"TO A BENNETT?!" The Bennetts. Will shuddered and fingered his crooked nose. The image of Lizzy Bennett's red face still haunted his dreams. Well, he supposed, haunted isn't the right word, more like graced. A half smile spread across Will's features. In high school he had been obsessed with the Bennetts. They seemed like such a happy family, exactly what his family wasn't. He first met Jane in his freshman year, they had had the same home room in the small school. She was pretty and nice, always talked about her great sisters, especially Lizzy Bennett. She seemed enchanted with her younger sister and in his sophomore year he had figured out why.

Lizzy Bennett herself was enchanting. She was fiery and vibrant, with bright red hair and dazzling blue eyes. He was immediately enraptured. But with the logic of most 16 year old boys he felt that it was his duty, as the most popular boy in school, to date the most popular girl in school, so he therefore had to push Lizzy away. Will didn't even remember the girl's name or what she looked like or anything else about her. The only thing he did remember about high school was the day Elizabeth walked into his life, and the day she walked, smirking, out.

Will remembered thinking, as he had lain on the floor that day - with blood pouring out of his broken nose - that the infamous Darcy smirk fit rather well on her face.

Will never thought that his connection to Charles Bingley would bring him back to the love of his life. But it seems fate was on his side. He smiled and strode out of his office and out onto the street.

"Boothbay Harbour, Maine here I come."
