Dear Georgiana,
I have some very exciting news for you. Elizabeth and I are ENGAGED. It’s a
long story, which I’m going to tell you because well, it’s a great story. The
night Bingley proposed, I couldn’t sleep. At six-thirty in the morning, I
decided to go for a stroll. All night I kept thinking about how I was so in
love with Elizabeth and how I wanted her to experience the same happiness as
Jane. I was jealous of Bingley’s happiness. On my walk, the only thing on my
mind was Elizabeth. I was paying no attention to where I was going and found
myself in the direction of the Bennet’s
house. All of a sudden, I see someone walking up the hill. It was Elizabeth. I
ran to her. I asked what she was doing out there all alone. She asked me the
same thing. She began to thank me for helping Lydia and asked me why I did it.
I told her it was because I loved her and I asked if she still felt the same
way about me as she did the last time I proposed. She said no. At that moment,
I proposed to her with the sunrise in the background. We immediately went to
her house so I could ask her father for her hand in marriage. He allowed me my
say. He then asked to speak to Elizabeth alone. She told him about what I did
for Lydia and his family. He immediately felt repayment was necessary. Which
you for one know, I would not let him do that. He gave us his blessing and
announced our engagement to the rest of the family. I hope you can participate
in my happiness.
Your
very happy brother,
Fitzwilliam
