   Summary

   "I am afraid that my news is not the most pleasant," Elizabeth said, wishing there was a chair she could occupy without moving closer to him. As it was, she could not stand still, her heart hammering in her chest. "It has come to my attention that I am increasing."

   The words were like a punch to his stomach, and he took a deep breath, steadying himself. "That is certainly not the news I expected. It was only the one time, I had thought, most certainly..."

   "Yes, well, the last time we were together--you know the consequences, of course."

   ****

   A passionate ending to the rejected proposal at Hunsford leads to unsought complications: a child. With no other options, Elizabeth seeks out Mr. Darcy–a collection exploring variations on the essential conversation.
