Summary
“I can sleep out here—you should take our bed,” she offered.
“I would not dream of it,” he replied stiffly.
She shifted uneasily, fingers twisting together. “But the settee is small and you are—"
“It is not befitting of a lady of your station,” he bit out, unsure why she would not cease.
“But—"
“Truly, Penelope, I will not hear of it.”
Post 3x07: Strained by betrayal and the aching distance between them, Colin spends the first week of their marriage torn between anger and an unyielding love he can’t ignore. Their unresolved tension comes to a head during a confrontation over the settee. As their heartbreak unfolds, Colin must decide how to honor his feelings while taking the first steps toward healing what feels irrevocably shattered.

Summary
He’d said his name was Debling, and if she looked at him from the right angle, under the twinkling lights of the beachfront dance floor, he definitely resembled Colin.
Kind of.
Perhaps with one more drink in her system, the sort that would keep her senses intact but loose, dulling the ache in her heart, she could fully let go and allow herself to leave with him.
“Mind if I cut in?”
Penelope’s heart slammed against her ribcage.
That voice. Startled jolts shot down to her belly before radiating through her limbs.
Her head whipped around, too stunned to believe the man she’d spent weeks trying to forget had just appeared in the flesh.

Summary
“Do you truly have to ask what I was doing the night before our wedding?” Colin spat, the bitterness in his tone ricocheting to lash out at them both. “I thought Lady Whistledown knew what happens everywhere in London?”
Penelope's breath caught audibly, but she said nothing, just staring at him, wide-eyed and wary.
Colin tilted his head, his voice turning mocking—cruel in a way he knew he’d regret but could not contain. “Surely the carnal customs of a stag night at White’s have not escaped her ears?”
It was a bitter conjecture, one he did not truly mean, but it was also a test. And from the way her face paled, the look of utter agony that crossed her countenance, he wished he had not posed it.
A reimagining of Season 3, Episode 7’s wedding-eve confrontation, packed with angst, passion, and steamy moments. What if that purported scene involving prostitutes had not been cut? What if we could hear what Colin says to Penelope during their kiss? What if we'd had more time to let the original script's dialogue breathe and make sense? After months of post-season 3 polin brain rot, this is my labor of love.

Summary
Colin lifts his hand with the cigarette to his lips at the same that his eyes open, his head turns, and he first notices Penelope standing there watching him.
"Fuck," he mutters before looking away from her and to the window. "I'm sorry."
She isn't sure what he's apologizing for really—for smoking or fighting with Marina or maybe both. Regardless, it breaks a little part of her to see him looking so dejected and sad. There's a light missing from him, a weight pulling him down and making him seem smaller. It's not fair, though. He's so inherently good. He doesn't deserve to feel like this. He doesn't deserve to be treated like this. He deserves—
Penelope can't help but blink in surprise even at just the meandering path of her own thoughts, at the idea that just popped into her head about what exactly she thinks Colin Bridgerton deserves at this moment and what exactly she'd like to do to make him feel better. It's ridiculous, right? She shouldn't… She couldn't… But what if she did?
--
Flatmates Penelope and Colin take a winding, complicated, messy path on their friends to lovers journey.

Summary
“Dearest,” his mother’s voice comes out a little louder. The hand on his arm squeezes in emphasis. Colin drags his eyes away from the beautiful vision of his fiancée— his fiancée! — and looks towards his mother.
“I got Humboldt to fetch you a cravat. I thought you might want to be fully dressed before we escort Miss Featherington home.” His mother presses a plain white scrap of cloth into Colin’s limp hand.
“Home?” Colin inquires, at a complete loss to his mother’s meaning. Penelope is home. He already escorted her up from the street and into Bridgerton House. Pen's cloak is already settled in the closet amongst their own.
OR
A tiny introspective about what occurs after Colin announces his engagement to his family in the Bridgerton drawing room. In which he is mostly being a pouty loverboi about having to say goodbye to Pen.

So, what do you do when the man you’re in love with barely acknowledges that you’re female let alone realises that you have feelings for him?
