Author’s Notes:
Ah, the first days of love! Mr Rochester gets quite nervous when she starts to question him, but relaxes as soon as she asks about Miss Ingram. All the signs are there Jane!! I love how he continues to call her names for fairies and magical creature – elven, salamander, sylphs foot, fire-spirit…Then he confesses he was trying to make her jealous – the prat!
Mrs. Fairfax wisely counsels her and thus avoids any impropriety for the time of their engagement. Jane skillfully manages him and goodness it is hard for him…heh.
They take a trip to town and Jane writes a letter in the hopes of reaching her uncle, a letter that will prove fateful.
