    Summary

    “It’s not really a date,” Eloise corrects impatiently, chucking a piece of crisp at him in annoyance. She snaps her fingers as she attempts to find the right word. “More of like, like a -”

    “A date,” Colin deadpans, swiping the last biscuit from the tin. He points it at her before taking a thoughtful chew. “Call it what you want, El. Twist it whichever way, it’s still a date.”

    Or the one where Penelope is very hesitant about dipping her toes back into the dating pool and Eloise comes up with the (not so) perfect solution to ease her nerves - Penelope should go out on practice dates!

    Enter: Eloise’s brother, and their current house guest, Colin.

    Exit: Penelope’s sanity.

    Summary

    “You look beautiful. Don't marry him.”

    “I hope you had fun today. Please be with me instead.”

    So he said nothing. Instead, he took the long way, stretching the moment just to share the same air with her. It calmed him, knowing she wasn't getting married today — that for now she was with him, in his car, and he was taking care of her. That way, he could let his mind drift and imagine that she was running away with him on her wedding day, with her beautiful veil on and his leather jacket wrapped around her.

    The evidence that she almost belonged to another, but ended up choosing him.

    or Colin picks Penelope up from her hen party and the fact she is wearing a veil fucks him up a bit.
