“Colin?” Penelope is clearly shocked to see him and looks a little nervous. He hates this. Hates what his marriage has become.
“Rae told me where I might find you. It is late, and dark, and I was worried about you travelling home alone.” He voice is surprisingly steady for the inner turmoil he feels. Madame Delacroix is watching him, analyzing him. He wonders what she sees. He tries to smile at them both but he isn’t sure that it comes out the way he hopes it does.

Maybe it was the tequila, maybe it was her regained confidence, but Penelope was feeling good. Free even, she should tell Colin how good she feels. How her date was a bust, how she loves the movie Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, and how much she loves him.
Or the one where Penelope drunk confesses her feelings to Colin after a crappy date.

Summary
They’ve been having this same conversation for the past decade. Ever since Penelope was first invited to join the Bridgerton family tradition of a Christmas holiday at Aubrey Hall.
Penelope endures a conversation with Portia. Luckily, she has Violet and Colin to help her pick up the pieces.
Modern AU. One-shot. Kinda angsty but we soothe that with fluff.

Summary
The Bridgertons have always been a competitive bunch, never more so than when they are sequestered away from the judgmental eyes of the ton while staying at Aubrey Hall. However, when the family questions Colin’s sudden success during a casual game of Buffy Gruffy, he starts to wonder if he’s truly that perceptive or if it all has to do with a specific red-headed family friend sitting across from him.

Summary
What if, after enduring more pain than she could ever imagine, Penelope finally gave in and told Colin how she felt?
--
“You don’t have to say anything. I get it.”
Penelope took three steps and felt a hand on her wrist. Colin grabbed her arm, pulling firmly, and spinning her around. His hand cradled her face as he bent down to kiss her, breathing her in as his lips covered hers.
That’s all it took for Penelope’s brain to short circuit. Colin was kissing her. It was soft and gentle, but sent sparks to all of her limbs. Her body turned into gelatin.
When they broke apart, she placed her hands on his chest, feeling the thud of his heartbeat underneath his shirt. His hand remained cradling her cheek.
“Why did you do that?” she asked quietly, her heart in her throat.
“I don’t know,” he breathed. He looked so young and scared suddenly. “I just felt like I should.”

Summary
“Please, Pen. I know you’ll love it if you try!” he’d pleaded with her on the street outside her flat. His car parked behind him was brimming with bags and camping equipment. His eyes were so fucking sincere, she didn’t stand a chance.
And so now, she’s stomping on a foot pump trying to blow up their airbed (“Sorry, I only had a double”) while Colin gets the fire going.
She’s quite committed to hating this whole experience. She's not the outdoorsy kind. She’s a city girl.
Though she has to admit it is a bit fun.

Summary
Just one kiss.
The question had surprised him; although it should not have, because her bravery has always been one of the many qualities he admired most about her.
It does not have to mean anything.
Still, Colin had hesitated. Not because of her, but for her. To ensure she understood the gravity of her ask. To allow her a respite to withdraw it if she wished to do so. But Penelope had not relented, instead murmuring his name and a desperate please that made him weak and ready to surrender to her.
And since he is Colin and she is Penelope, and he would do almost anything for her, he did as she asked.
They kissed, just the gentlest brush of their mouths moving together, and—
After the events of 3x02, Penelope vanishes, Colin falls apart, and a series of very different events are put into motion.

Summary
It's exhausting, honestly. Loving someone this much.
Six months of silence, and then Aubrey Hall.
Penelope and Colin are thrown back into each other’s orbit for Kate and Anthony’s wedding, with too much history and not nearly enough distance. Tension simmers, old wounds resurface, and neither of them is as unaffected as they’d like to be.

Summary
Penelope stood in his doorway, biting her bottom lip and peering up at him hesitantly, drenched from head to toe, dripping water all over his ‘A Silly Goose Lives Here’ doormat (something Hyacinth had gifted him when she was six years old—she had him pegged from a very young age).
He hadn’t seen Penelope in weeks—twenty-two days, five hours and…six…minutes to be exact—not that he was counting. The memory of the last time he’d seen her popped up into his mind without permission—her frantically whispered apologies hitting his ears, even as his lips still tingled from the warmth of hers, as she ran from his life, taking his shattered heart with her.
“Colin…” She was twisting her hands together nervously. “I’m sorry to bother you like this…” Her voice was shaky, and she glanced down and took a breath, seemingly to compose her nerves. “I just…”
“Are you okay?” Colin couldn’t help but ask. No matter how angry or hurt he was, he still cared for her deeply, and he could not hide his concern at seeing her show up on his doorstep in this state.

Summary
His mouth drops open slightly as he looks down at her hand on his chest. She wonders if he’s also comparing their sizes, and she licks her lips at the thought. He looks up at her face just in time to see the flash of pink of her tongue, and two things happen that Penelope thought she would never experience in her lifetime.
- Colin Bridgerton is looking at her with “fuck me” eyes so dilated that she can’t tell what’s denim blue versus black.
- Colin Bridgerton lets out the prettiest, breathiest moan she’s ever heard in her life.
Who could ever fight against that?
“Can I please suck your dick, Colin?”

Summary
When Colin agrees to work the annual Flagons & Flails Renaissance Festival with Penelope this summer, she expects him to be disappointed by the overall, well, nerdiness of it.
Instead, Penelope finds him actually paying attention to her, noticing her, and even appreciating her a bit. Certainly more than he ever did before.
And she kind of thinks it might destroy her.
