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.

Summary
At Eloise's wedding, Colin hatches a plan to pretend to be dating Penelope, creating wild and elaborate stories. However, when one story hits too close to be fake, the pair have to face some home truths.
("You want me to fake date you at your sister's wedding?"
"Yes." He says simply, in all seriousness. "But we commit to the bit. Fully. We make it weird. Every crazy idea you could possibly have, we do. No matter how wacky, we tell people about it. We could have a lot of fun with it."
Selfishly, she thinks it would show her what it would be like to be his. Just for one night.)

Summary
In hindsight, watching old reruns of 'Didn't Even Know I was Pregnant' was probably not her best move. Watching eight episodes in a row was probably her next bad move, but she was invested in the stories of these women; she just kept pressing play even after 2 a.m. passed.
She becomes convinced, when the cramping goes lower in her belly, that she is having a surprise baby.
(In which Penelope is convinced she is having a 'surprise baby' and meets Doctor Colin Bridgerton)

Summary
During a perfectly normal study session, Colin asks what he swears is an innocent question.
Because it seems like having built-in pillows on one’s chest would make laying on one’s stomach and studying for an upcoming English exam almost comfortable.

Summary
Penelope wants to blame everyone else. Edwina, for hyping her up. The Bridgertons, for treating her like a real in-law when she was just a stand in. Taylor Swift, for making her look for clues that were probably never there.
Still, Penelope soldiers on. She traces her lips with her favourite liner before throwing on a red lipstick in a vain attempt to feel strong.
Fake it ‘till you make it. That’s what Portia taught her, maybe the only useful thing Porta ever taught her.
-
Penelope is certain that Colin, who has been her friend with benefits for the last two years, is on a date.
So what is he doing waiting for her at Bridgerton House?

Summary
“But when am I getting married? And who am I getting married to?”
“More like who would want to marry you?” Prudence mumbles as Philippa snickers along unkindly.
Penelope frowns, for a moment she wonders if her mum will tell Prudence to stop, that being mean also isn’t ladylike, but she doesn’t do that, she just ignores it. “Well, you’re a little too young to be getting married right now, that will have to wait until you’re a bit older, but as for who you’re going to marry… I suppose we’ll have to wait and see.”
Two days after the wedding, Penelope knocks a boy off his bike by accident with her yellow hat. He laughs with her about it instead of yelling at like she’d assumed he would, and the moment she hears his laugh she knows that she’s met the love of her life, and the minute she opens the door she tells her mum that she knows exactly who she’s going to marry one day.
She’s going to marry Colin Bridgerton, the flowers said so.
OR
At nearly every single wedding she goes to, Penelope catches the bouquet. These are the various times it happens, and a couple of times when it doesn't.

Summary
It's maybe not something he should be doing for his friend. It is maybe too much, not normal, but Colin likes how it makes him feel. For two months a year he gets to be a man who has a girl to buy flowers for. Sometimes when the florist says for your girlfriend? he will say yeah, and when they say lucky girl he will say yeah, yeah she is or I'm the lucky one and for a few moments he is another person entirely, a man with a purpose and a life and a warm flat with a pretty girl in it, waiting upside down on the sofa for her peonies with her hair trailing.
Better than the reality, that he is a thirty-two year old loser with no job (which is why he can afford to be loping around the city all day looking for flowers). No job no girlfriend no point.
It is the happiest he is all year.

Summary
Pen nibbles nervously on her lower lip for another moment despite his urging. "It… I can't even say it out loud."
"Say what out loud?" Colin asks exasperatedly. "I think we're past the point of politeness, Pen. Just out with it. Tell me what you're wondering about."
Her cheeks somehow get even redder then, and suddenly he knows what she's going to say before she says it. He doesn't know how her blushing made the understanding sink in, but it did and he finds himself blushing in advance too. He also finds his eyes dipping surreptitiously to her cleavage before he yanks them back up again.
"There is… something else that could help."
Colin's breath catches and he nods slowly. "Uh huh…"
"You…" Pen trails off as her hands fidget at her sides. "You could maybe… help me."
—
Or, another fic with Colin being just the best friend ever and helping Penelope out of a sticky (milky?) situation.
