To Longbourne…
Dear Georgiana,
After the whole ordeal with Lydia and Wickham, I decided to stay in London for
another fortnight. Surprisingly, I received a letter from Bingley asking if I
wanted to go to Netherfield with him. I told him yes. We left the next week.
Before arriving at Netherfield, we stopped by Longbourne. We had tea and
crumpets with the Bennet women. We were invited back for dinner. We accepted.
After dinner, we thanked them and went on our way to Netherfield. After talking
to Jane all day (not to mention her talking about the whole ride up to
Longbourne and then to Netherfield), Bingley decided he wanted to propose to
her. About ten in the morning, we went back to the Bennet house. He asked to
speak to her privately and I stayed outside. While I was outside, Elizabeth
walked outside and we started to chat. Suddenly, there was a loud yell from
inside the house. We ran inside and Mrs. Bennet screams, “JANE’S GETTING
MARRIED TO MR. BINGLEY.” She then ordered the servants to prepare an
extravagant brunch for everyone. We spent the whole day with the Bennets. Late
that evening, we said our farewells and departed. Stay well.
Your
favorite brother,
Fitzwilliam

Lydia and Wickham Return to Longbourne
Elizabeth found out what I did for Lydia and Wickham and sent me a Thank You letter. This picture was with it.
Lydia and London
Dear Georgiana,
I deeply regret leaving in such a hurry. Elizabeth’s younger sister had eloped
with Wickham. They are said to be somewhere in London. Mr. Gardiner and I are diligently
searching for her. I thought I saw her in the street the other day, but by the
time I got over to where she was standing, she was gone. She must have ducked
into some alley and ran. After another week or so, I finally found her. She led
me to Wickham. He and I had a chat. I told him I would pay for his gambling
debts and the wedding if he agreed to marry Lydia. He agreed. I told him for as
long as he was alive he had to show his love for her everyday or I would expose
what really happened. My sincere apologies for departing without telling you.
Love,
Fitzwilliam

Home, but Not for Long
I AM
HOME!!!!!
I
finally received the upmost pleasure of returning home to Pemberley. When I
arrived, one of the servants told me that one of the maids was giving a tour of
the house to some people passing through Lambton. I did not think much of it
because I am used to strangers touring the house. Every time passersby come through
the town, they want a tour of the house. I guess, its grandeur size intrigues
people. I decided to take a stroll through the garden. In the garden, I caught
a glimpse of our visitor. It was Elizabeth Bennet. She was with her Aunt and
Uncle Gardiner. I walked over and started to speak to her, when the maid
embarrassingly said, “Oh, Mr. Darcy, I am so sorry, sir, I did not know you
were home.” I told her it was all right that I knew Miss Bennet, and then asked
if it was all right if I tagged along on their tour. Everyone, except Elizabeth,
was thrilled. Elizabeth gave me a go dig a hole, bury yourself, and die in it,
look. I tagged along. Elizabeth and I were in the back of the group just
walking silently. I finally asked if her family was well to get the
conversation going. After the walk, I invited them to join Georgiana and me for
lunch. Elizabeth said that they needed to get going, but the Gardiners
gratefully accepted the invitation. I took them back to where they were staying.
Elizabeth received a letter and started to cry. I asked her what was wrong and
she showed her uncle and me the letter. I immediately took off to London
without them knowing, and Mr. Gardiner went to take Elizabeth home to
Longbourne.
