Summary
This is not a sweet, light piece. It is what Mr. Bennet was referring to when he insisted Elizabeth marry someone she could respect. This piece is about emotional, not physical, adultery.

Summary
This was a drabble that turned into a short story because Margaret and John had too many feelings for it to be any shorter. 😄
It starts in the part of the story when Mr. Hale finally realizes his wife is dying and he's melting into a puddle on the floor at the thought. (No, I don't actually like the guy. He makes me angry because he puts EVERYTHING on his 19 year old daughter. Seriously, dude?!?)Also, I’m rearranging canon and its timeline to entirely suit my purposes, so Mr. Bell will have visited and become enamored of Margaret BEFORE Mrs. Hale died and Mrs. Shaw won’t be off adventuring in Europe, so she can take in Margaret when I needed her to. 😇

Summary
We never actually see how Louisa and Benwick fell in love, so what did occur? A (mostly 😉) canon-compliant attempt to answer this question. Part of the Austen Exchange 2024, and thank you Maidenjedi for suggesting such a fascinating topic to explore! 🥰
And a generous thank you to a kind friend who gave invaluable assistance and much needed feedback in making this a far better story, reminding me that a song touches the heart more strongly for intertwined voices.
