Summary
If she were braver, maybe, Francesca would tell her the truth: I think I want to stay over tonight but also maybe forever. But Francesca says nothing because a love confession after sex is ridiculous, even for her.

What Was Left Unsaid - A Bridgerton (Franchaela) Story by secretscriptwriter
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV)

Summary
Set directly after Season 4 of Bridgerton- After John Stirling’s death and his cousin’s abrupt departure, Francesca flees Scotland, unable to endure the silence of Kilmartin House alone. Instead, she retreats to a newly prepared London residence, clinging to routine and society, to anything that might keep her from unraveling.
Then Michaela Stirling returns.
What begins as a necessary reunion to settle the affairs of John’s Scottish estate quickly becomes something far more dangerous. Grief lingers between them, sharpened by unfinished conversations, lingering glances, and a tension that refuses to be ignored, no matter how desperately it should be.
Michaela is only meant to stay a few days. But as the hours slip away, restraint begins to fracture, and Francesca finds herself standing on the edge of something she cannot name, cannot allow, and cannot seem to resist. Because when Michaela leaves again on Monday morning, she may not be the same woman who let her go the first time.

Summary
John is dead. Michaela is gone. Michaela, halfway across the world and drowning in grief of her own.
After John Stirling’s death, Francesca is left with grief, unanswered questions, and a pregnancy no one saw coming. Michaela Stirling is left with a title she never wanted, feelings she cannot confess, and the unbearable knowledge that she has fallen in love with her cousin’s widow.
Forced back into each other’s lives by duty, mourning, Francesca and Michaela build a life together one moment at a time, until friendship becomes longing, longing becomes scandal, and London threatens to tear them apart before they can name what they are to each other.
Or: Francesca Bridgerton and Michaela Stirling fall in love very slowly, very painfully, and very inevitably.

Summary
“Excuse me,” said a voice beside her. “I was wondering if you could help me. There’s something wrong with my phone.”
(...) Francesca blinked. “Sorry?”
The woman held up her phone with a solemnity that fooled no one. “Terrible malfunction.”
Francesca, still a step behind whatever was happening here, said, “Do you need to ring someone?”
“That’s the issue,” the woman said. “It doesn’t have your number in it.”A modern AU Franchaela story in which Francesca Bridgerton goes to Spain for two weeks with her sister Eloise and their friend Sophie, fully intending to recover from heartbreak quietly and in peace.
Instead, she meets Michaela Stirling.
What begins as sun, flirtation, and something that looks like a holiday distraction slowly becomes harder to define, and even harder to ignore. In a place that feels far from home, Francesca finds herself drawn to a woman who makes wanting feel easy, and honesty feel like something neither of them quite knows how to do.
And when the holiday ends, neither of them is brave enough to say what happens next.Series
