Hello readers!

This is my first Pride and Prejudice fanfic ever and I cannot believe I have never thought of writing one before, however I was watching the film the other day and my favourite scene, Darcy's first proposal, gave me an idea or a story. So what got me think was...What if they kissed after their fight? What would happen if she accepted it? So I got to thinking and here is the beginning.

This is just a small intro to the story and the first chap should be up very soon so look out for it.

Summary:

Elizabeth accepts Mr Darcy's first proposal after a kiss that makes her see that she really is in love with him and like him, wants him no matter what. With them deciding to take time to be together before they get married Mr Darcy knows he must fix his wrong doings knowing Elizabeth would be even happier. However them both returning to Longbourn causes problems from Mr Wickham, him returning also to Longbourn with Lydia as his new wife. Can Elizabeth and Mr Darcy overcome everything people throw at them and become man and wife and never be apart?

So here is the preface! Enjoy! :)

Holding On Tight

Preface

Things were so different now to what they were all those years ago. I was happy now and living a life I couldn't have imagined. I was married and had two beautiful children, a boy who was now five and a beautiful young girl who was only months old. My son was the spitting image of his father; he was going to be a very handsome man when he was older. He was very fond of both of his parents, however his favourite person – or so he says out loud is his Aunt Jane. His best friend was also his cousin, Jane's eldest son Charles. Jane visited us often with her son, her husband and mine always busy with business that Jane often made the trip with her three children, one boy and two girls.

My life had certainly changed in the last ten years, but I was glad. My sisters were all married now, my father had passed away just after the birth of my son so sadly they had never gotten to know each other, but I smile when my son asks what his grandfather was like. My mother lived in a small house closer to Jane, than I which Jane and her husband had brought for her since Mr Collins took the estate once my father had died.

Sadly I never saw Lydia, with what happened with Mr Wickham she never came to visit, believing that I was jealous of her and the man she had married when in fact I was not. I had always been scared for her, worrying. Jane was as well when I had told her everything. Kitty and Mary visit with their children as well, and I make it out to see them when I could however running my house took up most of my time. I love it though when we had family dinners that brought us all together, however Kitty and Mary's husbands sometimes felt out of place since they didn't earn the same living as mine and Jane's husbands.

I couldn't believe the change. Every day I was happy with my life, very happy and I couldn't see it any other way. However the road I have taken to get here was worth it. I never expected it to turn out this way. But I need to explain it.

First my name is Elizabeth Bennet. I was twenty years old when my life changed, the journey I took brought me to where I am now.

I know, I know its short but its just a intro, the chapters will be longer I swear!

So leave a review or something!

Thanks for reading.

See you soon! :)
