   Summary

   There is nothing standing in the way of Mary and her happiness. A life with one Tom Hayward.

   It isn't until a letter arrives from her sister Elizabeth.

   Or
   A ball is being held at Pemberly to celebrate Tom and Mary's engagement. But celebrations such as these are never easy or happy when one Mrs. Bennet is concerned.

   Summary

   Mary looked out across the garden again. Tomorrow, she would catch the bus to her faculty building, not a packed commuter train with a two hour journey ahead of her, instead from a home where she had been told she was most welcome.

   For the first time since her father's death, she allowed herself to imagine the future without a sense of dread attached to it. London suddenly didn't seem frightening at all.

   It felt, quietly and unexpectedly, like her real life was about to begin.

   Mary/Tom Modern AU.

   Summary

   A story of yearning while married.

   For Mary Bennet, thinking little of herself is a thing of the past. However, some things bring back old thinking. Her wedding night to Tom Hayward is such an event, which reminds Mary of her self-limiting beliefs. Due to a misunderstanding between the pair, things get worse and soon both Mary and Tom are longing for something in their marriage they are both too awkward to bring up.
