Re: Ashley & Mr Darcy
"The reasons are different but they do still happen." She nodded. She blushed a little when he complimented her curls. She really did love them. "Thank you." She smiled again. She'd been doing that quite a lot since walking in the room.
"You're a gentleman that's been thrust into an unusual situation. It's okay to forget to offer a drink. Just this once." She winked at him. "The bar is over this way." And it was the second time since meeting him that she wanted to take his hand but she didn't want to make him any more uncomfortable than he already was.
