Summary
then—
“See you later, Pen,” Colin calls out to her one last time before making his exit. The nickname rolls off his tongue like it’s nothing, like she’s always been Pen to him.
Pen.
(She is done for.)
now—
“Penelope,” he says her name with breathless wonder as if he can’t believe she’s right in front of him.
“Colin,” she repeats back to him, and there’s a long pause that follows. There was a time, a very long time, when they would have hugged without a second thought. But things are different now.
—
A modern AU lightly inspired by the book People We Meet on Vacation and also every slow burn friends to lovers rom-com to ever exist.

Summary
His eyes landed on Penelope, dancing in the arms of Arthur Fernsby of all people, looking absolutely miserable. Fernsby hands were lower in her back than they had any right to be, and there was nothing proper in the way he held her close to his body. Colin only noticed that he had started walking towards Pen when Violet stopped him.
“Dearest, what are you doing?” Her voice was sweet and full of concern, but her hand on his arm was firm. Colin looked at his mother as if she had lost her mind.
“Miss Featherington is clearly uncomfortable, should I not help her?”
“Oh Colin, they are to be wed in a week,” his world came crashing down. “I fear any help is too late by now.”
-
Penelope is being forced to marry someone she does not want, Colin decides that the only way to help is to marry her himself.

Unexpected Curves by ynnej2198 for m_luthien
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn

Summary
This story came into my head randomly and is based off of the Friends storyline of Monica and Chandler’s unexpected hook-up at Ross’ wedding to Emily and their subsequent secret relationship. What happens when Anthony and Penelope find common ground at Colin’s wedding to Marina and realize that there is more to each other than meets the eye?
This is a modern Bridgerton AU set in the United States where Anthony is a rich billionaire CEO and philanthropist and Penelope is a writer sharing an apartment with Eloise. Anthony has not met Kate (and will not meet her) and Colin is in love with Marina and completely unaware of Pen’s feelings for him.
If you are fans of the original couples and cannot picture them with other people, then DO NOT READ THIS FIC, as it is NOT for you. But, if you have an open mind, then enjoy.
