Passing Notes by Oreal770
Fandoms: Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story (TV), Bridgerton (TV)

Summary
Chapter One:
The smile that spills over Brimsley’s face is surprising indeed. He was quite prepared to be maudlin and grumpy this morning, and yet he finds he cannot be miserable when his heart is swelling with so much love.
He presses a kiss to the note and smiles to himself, kicking his legs out of bed and squaring his shoulders. A wonderful day; well, he can at least try.
~~~
Chapter Two:
Reynolds carefully opens his fist and looks again at the poem, pressing his lips together with the effort of keeping himself from snorting. This is the most ridiculous thing he has ever read.
He tucks the poem away into his pocket, breathing through his nose until his racing heart calms a little and the urge to laugh recedes.
"If you are trying to make me break," he says out of the side of his mouth, in the faintest whisper, "You will have to do better than that."
