    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

    Colin had sworn to not two, not three, but four people he would not be in attendance: Eloise, Daphne, his mother, and Benedict. But Pen wouldn’t have come if she knew he was going to be in attendance, and Penelope needs his family nearly as much as she needs a holiday. He can’t let her vanish from their lives just because he’d hurt her feelings. That’s Colin’s fault, not Penelope’s. That’s his punishment to bear.

    It’s just that the punishment is staying away from Penelope, and Colin can’t quite stand the thought of bearing it all the way.

    --

    Or, Penelope Featherington gets severely sunburned and Colin Bridgerton is just trying to get the girl.

    Summary

    “What’s wrong?”

    “Erm… well… fuck. Ok. Colin.” She clears her throat. “I’m so sorry, but this is a call of shame.”

    “A what?”

    “A call of shame. I might… I might have chlamydia.”

    “Oh.” MY FUCKING GOD. He doesn’t say that part out loud but he thinks it very loudly. “Ok.” She’s going to be freaking out.

    “No. No, not ok. Not ok at all. We fucked!”

    “I remember.” It is absolutely top of the wank bank.

    “And not like sensible adults.”

    “I remember that too.” If felt fucking incredible.

    “So you might have chlamydia.”

    “I understand how STIs work, Pen.”
