The Courtship

A Pride and Prejudice Variation

What if Darcy didn't abysmally propose marriage in Hunsford, but a courtship instead?

Thus begins The Courtship...

Darcy embarks on asking Elizabeth to enter into an official courtship with him—but when she refuses him angrily, he gets angry too, and he not only tells her why he meddled in Bingley's affairs, but also why Wickham was never one to be trusted, either. Elizabeth is astonished into silence at his angry outburst, but before she can find the words to reply, he's gone.

While Elizabeth is mortified at her apparent errors in judgment, Darcy is mortified at his own lack of composure. Can they overcome their mistakes, or will they leave Hunsford—and their future—behind forever?
