The Honor of My Family

Chapter 38

I walked away from the ball. I just needed some air. The question Caroline asked was a lot to think about. Jane wasn't lying about my true feelings. There is something thing there. I just don't know what. I am seeing a different side of him.

"You okay Elizabeth?" I heard behind me. I turned around to see it was Charles.

"I am fine. Just a lot on my mind." I told him.

"Anything I can help you with?" He asked me consured. Charles was a nice guy. He was really caring. If there was anyone I could talk to about this was him.

"Well, with everything that is going on. It just got me think." I told him.

"Think about what? If you don't mind me asking?" He asked me.

"How I feel about everything that is going on." I told him truthfully.

We found a bench and sat down. He then asked,

"How do you feel about him?"

"I truly don't know. I am still figuring something out. I am seeing a different side of him then when I first meet him. I know there is something there. I just haven't figured out what just yet." I told him.

"Everything will come clear sooner or later. Just give it time." He told me.

"I know. I just don't know when." I said.

"Just give it time." He told me.

"Can we just keep this between you and me?" I asked him.

"Sure Elizabeth." He said.

We then headed back to the ball. I walked over to Darcy. He was talking to a few of this family members. I stood there listening to them. I wasn't really wanting to talk right now. Georgianna was standing in front of everyone.

"Excuse me everyone. Can I get your attention? Please." Georgianna yelled over to everyone. We all looked at her. I glanced over to Darcy. He looked at me.

"I just want to say how happy I am for my brother to find someone like Elizabeth. I know she will bring joy. But also know she will be kicking his ass when need. So, to my brother Darcy and my new sister Elizabeth. Welcome to the family Elizabeth." Georgianna said.

Then Colonel Fitzwilliam was standing next her. He then said,

"Elizabeth, welcome to this crazy family. You will fit right in. You will go good for Darcy. Keep on fighting forever one."

I smiled at them. Their words were really nice. I felt really welcome. It was getting late. So, people were heading to bed or relaxing.

"Hey, you okay?" Darcy asked me when we got alone.

"Yeah. Just a little bit tired." I told him.

"It was a long day." He said.

"Yeah. It was. But a great day." I said.

"Yeah. Georgianna and you did a great job. Everyone had a good time." He said.

"It was mostly Georgianna then me." I said truthfully.

"But still I know Georgianna loved doing it with you. She doesn't get to do this often." He told me.

"It's getting late. I think I am going to bed." I said.

"Okay. Sweet dreams Elizabeth." Darcy said to me. I then headed to my room. I have a lot to think about. Also, figure out a few things.
