    Summary

    The smutty 'Trying to Tread Water' companion fic that people did ask for.

    Though their marriage was in name only, offered in the dark hour of her father’s life fading and Mr Collins not listening to her refusals of him, as Elizabeth and Mr Darcy became closer they were always going to learn to understand each other – and themselves – better, growing both as individuals and a couple. Some things are inevitable.

    And, sometimes, when the inevitable happens, it also gets heated…

    Chapters are labelled with where you need to be up to in Trying to Tread Water to prevent spoilers for the main story. Everything here is expanded and bonus scenes from that fic.

    Summary

    The marriage of convenience fic no one asked for.

    The morning after the Netherfield Ball, while Mr Collins is proposing to Elizabeth, Mr Bennet collapses. With her father unconscious and apparently near death, her mother pressuring her to marry Mr Collins, and the gentleman himself ignoring her protests, suddenly saying 'no' is not so easy. Faced with poverty and homelessness if she continues refusing, the gossip soon reaches Netherfield that she will have to marry Mr Collins. Just as Mr Darcy is about to mount his horse and follow Mr Bingley to London, never to return, he overhears the servants talking. The thought of Elizabeth married to a fool like Mr Collins is unbearable to him, and he resolves to make her a better offer. But, when she refuses him, he finds that he's willing to do anything for love - even marry her without the hope of being with her.

    Summary

    (Modern AU.) It's hot. Elizabeth keeps going to the same café to write or to relax with a cold drink. At the nearest table, there's this guy. Reading. Day after day, same table, different books.

    Handsome. Not particularly pleasant. Strike that, EXTREMELY unpleasant. God. Elizabeth hates him already.
