If they had a house in New Castle, did they sell it for alittle money?"

Confessions:

The moment Jane arrived she jumped out of carriage and pulled Lizzie into her arms.

"Oh Lizzie, I came as soon as I heard" Jane said sympathetically as her only slightly younger sister dug her head into Jane's shoulder.

The news of Lydia running off into the night yet again with Mr. Wickham reached Jane's ears quickly.

"Come Lizzie, let us walk in the gardens" Jane suggested, Elizabeth was in no state to disagree with the idea.

"How could she do such a thing? It is one thing to leave as a girl doing a foolish thing, but to leave you're child while running away to a new land...I've had hope for so long that Lydia would one day see sense, but I can hardly hope such a thing after what she's done" Jane admitted sadly as she and Lizzie walked through the gardens. Both looked at their feet, Elizabeth had been so angry with Lydia, that she had locked herself away in her room for solitude for several days until Jane arrived.

Something Lizzie had never done, was hide from her problems in such a manner. But it was not only that she was hiding from her problems.

oh no, Elizabeth Darcy was ashamed. She was ashamed she had once thought Wickham could be her own suitor, she was ashamed she did not warn her family of what Wickham had done, she was ashamed at having the simple minded Lydia for a sister, but most of all, she felt ashamed that she had not protected Lydia from such a man.

Instead she had kept Wickham's secrets, and now, Lydia had left behind her first borne child, probably in pursuit of making a man who would never love Lydia happy.

"I feel it is my fault Jane...I should have told Lydia about Wickham long ago...I should have told you all..." Elizabeth said suddenly as tears welled up in her eyes. "Wickham was...is a drunk, and gambles away anything he gains, it's a miracle he hasn't traded Lydia for a shot!" She exclaimed as she put her face in her hands.

Jane wrapped her arms around Elizabeth in a hug. "Lizzie, you mustn't say such things...It is not your fault, Wickham is at full blame. You were trying to spare everyone of hatred, how were you to know he would prey upon Lydia?" Jane asked softly, though expected no answer. "And as for Lydia, she has made her decision... but now it is up to you, what will you do with Little George?" Jane asked quietly.

Elizabeth took a deep breath and looked up at Jane. Her loving sister, Jane had always been on Elizabeth's side. Lizzie could not imagine life without Jane, nor did she want to.

"Darcy and I plan to keep raise him, despite how we feel about his parents, it is not Little George who is to blame for his parents faults, it would be cruel of us to send him away simply because it was Lydia and Mr. Wickham who abandon him on our doorstep rather then someone we liked" Elizabeth explained her thoughts as she sniffled and dried her eyes.

Jane smiled a little. "That is very admirable of you Lizzie... I admire you're maturity on such a matter" Jane complimented.

"You are too modest Jane, we both know you and Bingly alike would insist on doing the same" Lizzie laughed a little, as did Jane.

"Though, I must wonder, how on earth did Wickham and Lydia scrounge up enough money for a voyage all the way to the new land? I had thought everyone stopped giving them vast amounts to support their horrible habits" Elizabeth wondered aloud.

Jane took her hands from Elizabeth and looked down as the two continued on their walk.

"I fear...it was my hand in that Elizabeth..." Jane admitted sadly. "Lydia had written me a letter, begging for the money for the voyage, she said she and Wickham needed a new start...She convinced me in her letter, that there were new opportunities in America, ones that she and Wickham could scarcely even dream of, she promised it would better Wickham... and I suppose I stupidly believed her" Jane sighed. "Or perhaps I so desperately wanted to believe her..." she added and then seemed to get lost in her own thoughts.

Elizabeth frowned at this. "I understand Jane, I wished for that too, I wished for it for long... as it happens, a part of me even wished that Lydia would simply divorce Wickham, we'd have her scandal for the rest of our lives, but at least it would not be so terrible as her abandoning her new borne son, her heir"

Jane chuckled at this. It was an odd line of thought for sure, but one Jane could certainly see. "I must say I agree with that Elizabeth, though I have a feeling this is only the beginning of a much larger scandal" Jane said with a frown. "Lydia has always loved the spotlight"

Lizzie looked over at Jane. She knew exactly what her elder sister meant. Lydia was unpredictable in many ways, but the one thing you could count on from Lydia Wickham, is that she would do just about anything to keep herself shining the brightest.
