Summary

But the second passes, and she doesn't have him. Not at all.

Summary
“You and your dreams, Colin. Are they always of me, or does your subconscious sometimes favour the women of Paris?”
He scowled at that, as if he were a child who’d not been allowed to stay awake past their bedtime. “You know damn well the only woman I dream of is you, Penelope. It’s been that way since before we were married,” he grumbled.
Her eyes widened. “Before we were married? Although it is heartening you still wish to flatter me,” she glanced briefly down at her beringed left hand, “you jest, I am sure.”
aka the one where Colin is self-aware and tells his wife exactly how much he yearned for her

Summary
Penelope fell in love then. Irrationally, for sure – she didn’t even know his name! – but she was so unaccustomed to people greeting her mistakes with grace that she was helpless to the way her heart leapt straight out of her chest and into the safekeeping of the boy in the hyacinth bed.
“I’m Colin, by the way.”
“Penelope.”

Summary
In the midst of his panic, he happened to glance at the clock. Eleven thirty. Shit.
He'd told Gina to be at his at midday, and he knew she wouldn't be late. If anything, she'd arrive early, ever punctual and prepared.
Ricky raced through the shower, almost slipping on the bathroom tiles in the process, and 'cleaned' his room faster than he thought was possible. He threw on the cleanest pair of jeans that he could find, and a hoodie of his that he knew Gina loved. (She'd likely end up going home in it.)
At eleven fifty-five, the doorbell rang. Within seconds, he was at the door.

Alternatively, 'Ricky Bowen is hopelessly in love with Gina Porter'.

Summary
“I believed this was to be a marriage in name only. That as you did not wish to marry we would not truly be husband and wife.” Taggie hissed.
“Whatever gave you that impression? Was it I, stood in my finery, professing to ‘love and honour you in sickness and in health’? Or perhaps, the vicar that I paid a large sum to officiate the start of our wedded bliss?” Her lips pursed at his derisive tone. “Ahh no, I know what it might have been,” he paused, his finger raised in mock surprise, “may it have been your father threatening me with pistols at dawn?”

Summary
Penelope had grown accustomed to the chaos of Bridgerton family dinners by now. After the time Gregory accidentally set the table on fire in his excitement over Kate going into labor, she thought she had become truly prepared for anything.
She had been wrong. So very, very wrong.
The most pressing issue was the fact that she shouldn’t be at this particular dinner. At least not this version of her. She could see her 17-year-old self gaping in her direction, just as stunned as the rest of the invited guests, which included her mother, her deceased father, her sisters… Marina. After all, this was the night that the Featheringtons and the Bridgertons had come together to celebrate Colin’s rather-sudden first engagement.
She remembered the evening well. In excruciating detail, in fact. How handsome Colin looked. How doting he’d been to his fiancé. How silently Pen had been screaming the entire night, just hoping someone would hear her. She distinctly did not remember some future version of herself barging in during the main course, with a sleeping two-year-old in her arms.

Summary
“Colin?!” Anthony asked, bewildered, looking at a man who was unmistakably his brother, but an utterly transformed version. For starters, this Colin appeared to be several years older than the 20-year-old he knew – and certainly broader across the shoulders. Beyond that, everything from his clothing to his deportment was more mature in a way that couldn’t occur overnight.
And then, as if the universe was determined to prove Anthony even more insane – the younger brother he was used to also appeared in the entryway, lured by the sound of his name.
“Yes, Anthony, what is it?” the more-familiar Colin asked impatiently before he caught sight of his double, and his neck whipped around. “You’re –”
“You,” the older Colin agreed, his forehead furrowing as he took in his other self. Standing across from each other, their differences were even more apparent. “As I think you’ve surmised by now, I’m the same Colin you know – only misplaced a little. By about three years, based on the context.”

Happily married Colin time travels back to Season 1, Episode 2.

Summary
"I want you to marry me," he continues, voice cracking. "I love you so much and—actually, I think you love me too." His eyes stay on hers. "Do you?"
She's frozen. Her mouth opens. Then closes. Then opens again.
Finally, she speaks. "Are you serious right now?"
He nods. "If you love me, Penelope…" he swallows, reaching his hand out to her. "Then just take my hand and walk out of here with me."
The one where Colin Bridgerton literally stands up during Penelope Featherington's wedding and ruins it.
