Love said He looked into her eyes being serious. I understand on how you feel and I am not going to tease you since we are working together Willow. I might joke with you. Is that all right or not? Yes I know that I am one of the most popular guys at school here. Well possibly if you had someone help you out you could get out of that status that you claim you are in. Looking at her but he was not wanting to get a good grade but help her out though. 'I do not want for you to help me to get a good grade or let you do all of the work ok? He heard her shut the book. What is the book that you are reading there? He was a bit curious about it and wanted to know more about Willow since they will be working together. He was thinking in his head that if he could help her out with her confidence and then take her to the spa for them to work on her hair, skin and everything else then he would have more to work with. i am sorry if I did not hear you say hello to me. Well I have to agree with you there that it has to be on something that we both agree with and fun for us as well. Rob was thinking that Willow did not seem like a bad person at all and wanted to know more about her as well. Click to expand... Alright and as for joking I suppose it would be alright. when he mentioned her book she smiled softly which gave her a more innocent look.It's called Pride and Prejudice. It's a very good book. She looked at him smiling. Pride and Prejudice is a novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1813. The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education and marriage in the landed gentry society of early 19th-century England. Elizabeth is the second eldest of five daughters of a country gentleman landed in the fictional town of Meryton in Hertfordshire, near London. Willow paused to adjust her glasses again. which she hated since they were just a tad to big on her. The main plot of the novel is driven by a particular situation of the Bennet family if Mr. Bennet dies soon, his wife and five daughters will be without home or income, as the laws of the day by which he inherited Longbourn prohibit the women from inheriting it. Instead the estate is entailed to one of Mr. Bennet's collateral relativesmale only in this caseby the legal terms of fee tail. Mrs Bennet worries about this predicament, and wishes to find husbands for her daughters quickly. The father doesn't seem to be worried at all. She looked back to her book picking it up. While it was one of the newer printed version Willow still tended to treat it as if the book would break if held wrong. The narrative opens with Mr Bingley, a wealthy young gentleman and a very eligible bachelor, renting a country estate near the Bennets called Netherfield. He arrives accompanied by his fashionable sisters and his good friend, Mr Darcy. Attending the local assembly dance Bingley is well received in the community, while Darcy begins his acquaintance with smug condescension and 'proud' distaste for all the country locals. After Darcy's haughty rejection of her at the dance, Elizabeth resolves to match his coldness and pride, his prejudice against country people, with her own prideful anger in biting wit and sometimes sarcastic remarks directed towards him. Soon, Bingley and Jane begin to grow close. Elizabeth's best friend, Charlotte, advises that Jane should show her affection to Bingley more openly, as he may not realise that she is indeed interested in him. Elizabeth flippantly dismisses the opinion replying that Jane is shy and modest, and that if Bingley can't see how she feels, he is a simpleton and she doesn't tell Jane of Charlotte's warning. Later Elizabeth begins a friendship with Mr Wickham, a militia officer who is of long personal acquaintance with Darcy they grew up together. Wickham tells her he has been seriously mistreated by the proud man Elizabeth seizes on this news as further reason to dislike Darcy. Ironically, Darcy begins to find himself drawn to Elizabeth, unbeknownst to her. Mr Collins, the male relative who is to inherit Longbourn, makes an appearance and stays with the Bennets. Willow paused again putting the book away. Then continued describing the book. Recently ordained a clergyman, he is employed as parish rector by the wealthy and patronising Lady Catherine de Bourgh of Kent. Mr Bennet and Elizabeth are amused by his self-important and pedantic behaviour. Though his stated reason for visiting is to reconcile with the Bennets, Collins soon confides to Mrs Bennet that he wishes to find a wife from among the Bennet sisters. He first offers to pursue Jane however, Mrs Bennet mentions that her eldest daughter is soon likely to be engaged, and redirects his attentions to Elizabeth. At a ball given by Bingley at Netherfield, Elizabeth intends to deepen her acquaintance with Mr Wickham, who, however, fails to appear. She is asked to dance by Mr Darcy here she raises Wickham's fate with him, causing their harmonious dance to fall into a 'testy' discussion. The ball proceeds as spectacle the arriviste Sir William Lucas shocks Darcy, alluding to Jane and Bingley and 'a certain desirable event' Mr. Collins behaves fatuously now Mrs Bennet talks loudly and indiscreetly of her expectation of marriage between Jane and Bingley, and, in general, cousin Collins and the Bennet family save Jane and Elizabeth combine in a public display of poor manners and upbringing that clearly disgusts Darcy and embarrasses Elizabeth. The next morning, Mr Collins proposes marriage to Elizabeth, who refuses him, much to her mother's distress. Collins handily recovers and, within three days, proposes to Elizabeth's close friend, Charlotte Lucas, who immediately accepts. Once marriage arrangements are settled, Charlotte persuades Elizabeth to come for an extended visit to her new bridal home. Though appearing at the point of proposing marriage to Jane, Mr Bingley abruptly quits Netherfield and returns to London, leaving the lady confused and upset. Elizabeth is convinced that Darcy and Bingley's sister have conspired to separate Jane and Bingley. Willow looked at Rob after looking at the classroom's clock. In the spring, Elizabeth joins Charlotte and her cousin in Kent. The parsonage is adjacent to Rosings Park the grand manor of Lady Catherine de Bourgh, Mr Darcy's aunt where Elizabeth and her hosts are frequently invited to socialize. After Mr Darcy and his cousin Colonel Fitzwilliam arrive to visit Lady Catherine, Elizabeth renews her project of teasing Darcy while his admiration for her grows in spite of his intentions otherwise. Now Elizabeth learns from Fitzwilliam that Darcy prides himself on having separated Bingley from Jane and, with the poorest of timing, Darcy chooses this moment to admit his love for Elizabeth, and he proposes to her. Incensed by his high-handed and insulting manner, she abruptly refuses him. When he asks why so uncivil her reply Elizabeth confronts him with his sabotage of Jane and Bingley's budding relationship and with Wickham's account of Darcy's mistreatment of him, among other complaints. Deeply shaken by Elizabeth's vehemence and accusations, Darcy writes her a letter which reveals the true history between Wickham and himself. Wickham had renounced his legacy, a clergyman's 'living' in Darcy's patronage for a cash payment only to return after gambling away the money to again claim the position . After Darcy refused Wickham attempted to elope with Darcy's fifteen-year-old sister Georgiana, and thereby secure her part of the Darcy family fortune. He was found out and stopped only a day before the intended elopement. Regarding Bingley and Jane, Darcy justifies his interference he had observed in Jane no reciprocal interest for Bingley thus he aimed to separate them to protect his friend from heartache. In the letter Darcy admits his 'repugnance' for the 'total want of propriety' of Elizabeth's family, especially her mother and three younger sisters. After reading the letter, Elizabeth begins to question both her family's behaviour and Wickham's credibility. She also concludes that Wickham is not as trustworthy as his easy manners would indicate that he had lied to her previously and that her early impressions of Darcy's character might not have been accurate. Soon, Elizabeth returns home. Elizabeth tells her father that Darcy was responsible for uniting Lydia and Wickham. Some months later, during a 'northern' tour, Elizabeth and her Aunt and Uncle Gardiner visit Pemberley, Darcy's estate, while he's away. The elderly housekeeper has known Darcy since childhood, and presents a flattering and benevolent impression of his character to Elizabeth and the Gardiners. As they tour the grounds Darcy unexpectedly returns home. Though shocked as is Elizabeth he makes an obvious effort to be gracious and welcoming, and treats the Gardiners whom before he would have dismissed as socially inferior with remarkable politeness. Later he introduces Elizabeth to his sister, a high compliment to Elizabeth. Elizabeth is surprised and hopeful of a possible new beginning with Darcy. Elizabeth and Darcy's renewed acquaintance is cut short by news that Lydia, the youngest sister, has run away with Wickham. Initially, the family believe they have eloped, but they soon learn that Wickham has no plans to marry Lydia. Lydia's antics threaten her family, especially the remaining Bennet sisters with social ruin. Elizabeth and her aunt and uncle hurriedly leave for home Elizabeth is anguished, and convinced that Darcy will avoid her from now on. Soon, thanks apparently to Elizabeth's uncle, Lydia and Wickham are found and married. Afterwards, they visit Longbourn while bragging to Elizabeth, Lydia discloses that Darcy was present at the wedding. Surprised, Elizabeth sends an inquiry to her aunt, from whom she learns that Darcy himself was responsible for both finding the couple and arranging their marriage, at great expense to himself. Bingley returns to Longbourn and proposes marriage to Jane who immediately accepts. Now Lady Catherine surprisingly visits Longbourn. She sternly tells Elizabeth she has heard rumours of Darcy proposing to her she came with 'determined resolution' to confront Elizabeth and to demand that she never accept such a proposal. Elizabeth refuses to bow to Lady Catherine's demands. Furious, 'Lady C' charges off and tells Darcy of Elizabeth's obstinacy which convinces him that Elizabeth's opinion of him has changed. He now visits Longbourn, and once again proposes marriage. Elizabeth accepts, and the two become engaged. The novel's final chapters establish the futures of the characters Elizabeth and Darcy settle at Pemberley, where Mr Bennet visits often Mrs Bennet remains frivolous and silly. She often visits the new Mrs Bingley and talks of the new Mrs Darcy Jane and Bingley eventually move to locate near the Darcys in Derbyshire. Elizabeth and Jane teach Kitty better social graces, and Mary learns to mix more with the outside world at Meryton. Lydia and Wickham continue to move often, leaving debts for Jane and Elizabeth to pay. At Pemberley, Elizabeth and Georgiana grow close Georgiana is surprised by Elizabeth's playful treatment of Darcy, and she grows more comfortable with her brother. Lady Catherine holds out, indignant and abusive, over her nephew's marriage, but eventually Darcy is prevailed upon to reconcile with her sufficiently that she condescends to visit. Elizabeth and Darcy remain close to her Uncle and Aunt Gardiner the agents of their reconciling and uniting. Willow chuckled soflty after finishing her summary of the book. quote I am glad that you will not mind the joking around. He smiled and then he noticed that she was looking at her book. He began to listen to her talk about the story which he thought was very interesting and beautiful to hear. That is very interesting to hear about Willow. It sounds like it ends very happy the story. He did find it interesting but her lengthy conversation about it did take some time to explain it but if it made her feel passionate about it and love the story then it must have been a very important book to her. I guess class is about ready to end. I will see you in a bit ok Willow? He was happy to be possibly improving her life and making her happy as well about her. Rob knew that he was going to have to give her confidence and she did not look too bad if she would just do some better selecting in clothes and took better care of herself as well. The bell rang and a lot of the students ran out the door. Rob and Willow went to their different classes. At the end of school Rob went out to his car and then drove home setting everything up for when Willow came over. I sure do hope this will work!
