Secrets in the Dark by Stillpink

Summary
When Colin opened the door for Penelope that day, he hadn’t realized that his life as he knew it was about to change. As he took her coat, it hadn’t occurred to him that he didn’t have all the time in the world to smile at her or enjoy her smiles or to jokingly battle with Eloise over who would have the honor of escorting her to the dining room where everyone was gathered. No, Penelope was his, ever since childhood, and he couldn’t conceive of a world where he didn’t have his best friend.

Garrett's Girls by PetalsAndPlotTwists
Fandoms: Off Campus (TV 2026), Off-Campus Series - Elle Kennedy
05 Sep 2026

Summary
This idea was born from a fic I read here on AO3 and couldn't stop thinking about. I kept waiting for someone else to write more stories like it. Eventually I decided to write one myself. Consider this my love letter to that premise.
Hannah Wells is not a damsel. She wants that on record. She survived the worst night of her life and walked away. Just not the way anyone might have expected. She walked away with a daughter—bright and stubborn and entirely worth it—and the unshakeable conviction that she would never need anyone to save her again. She survived. She rebuilt. She's still rebuilding.
Garrett Graham doesn't do complicated. Hannah Wells is the definition of it—guarded, exhausted, and holding everything together through sheer force of will. When the scholarship keeping her afloat starts to slip and the walls she's built threaten to come down with it, the last person she expects to steady her is him. She doesn't know how to ask for help. She's never let herself. Then Garrett shows up and stays, and Hannah is forced to reckon with the possibility that needing someone and losing yourself are not the same thing.

Where the Cracks Let Light In by WriteMyAnchor
Fandoms: Off-Campus Series - Elle Kennedy, Off Campus (TV 2026)
25 Jun 2026

Summary
Hannah Wells and Garrett Graham can't seem to stand each other. She's convinced the Briar hockey captain is arrogant and entitled, while Garrett thinks Hannah is judgmental and impossible to read. Forced into each other's orbit, their constant clashes slowly give way to something neither of them expects. But behind Hannah's sharp tongue and Garrett's easy confidence are wounds they've spent years hiding. As old scars resurface and walls begin to crack, they'll have to decide whether love is worth the risk of letting someone see the parts of themselves they'd rather keep buried.

Summary
Colin Bridgerton had it all: a beautiful wife, four beautiful children, and a fulfilling career.
Saying he’s content is an understatement; he loves this life.
That is until he’s yanked from this reality and finds himself in the hospital, awakening from a coma.
It turns out he is not married and never has been. Penelope’s just his friend, his children don’t exist, and his perfect job is merely a pipe dream.
On a journey of rehabilitation, self-discovery, and grief, Colin must come to terms with the life he has and build it into the one that he dreamed of.
…trying to convince the girl he’s known as his wife of their wonderful life together shouldn’t be too tricky, right?

Summary
Colin had loved Penelope since, well— forever. So when she got engaged to Alf Debling, Colin did what he always did when he was hurt—he ran.
When Colin is involved in a car accident on September 24th, his emotional and mental state ran when his legs could not.But being a Bridgerton, Colin would soon come to learn that there is no running from your heart—literally or metaphorically.
And Penelope Featherington was his whole heart. She was his everything.
This is the story of healing, strength, of second chances. And proof that sometimes love really does conquer all.

Summary
Penelope Featherington may have only just turned 32 years old, but she’s come to a very important decision in her life. She’s ready to become a mother. She’s got a career that she’s passionate about and is completely financially independent and secure. All that’s missing is the man, but she’s done waiting on love. It’s time for Penelope to take matters into her own hands and do what she’s always done in her life—make her own dreams come true.
Colin Bridgerton, one of her best friends, is entering a bit of a hiatus from his jet-setting career as a travel photographer. He’ll be permanently in place in London for the foreseeable future while, at 35 years old, he tries to figure out what he wants to do with his life. While his intention in finally sitting still for a while had been to work out what his professional goals are going forward, Colin’s quickly becoming fixated on a very different kind of aspiration for himself.

Or, the one where Penelope and Colin decide to make a baby “as friends.”

It's Just Sex by unsavorablefavors

Tags
Summary
“Hey,” Colin said sheepishly, anxiously brushing his hand behind his neck. “I’ll take your virginity if — you know — if you want me to.”
Platonic sex, sex between friends, friends having platonic sex.
It won’t be a problem, right?
Or the classic: ‘I’ll take your virginity but don’t fall in love with me” finds everything they’re looking for in a person who ‘just wants to get over with having sex for the first time so they can get over the mental hurdle and start dating around.”

Summary
“Colin!” Penelope shouts, her face lighting up with a smile that had to be a million or two watts, rivaling the brightness of the sun.
“Pen,” he says, feeling some kind of weight drop from his shoulders, replaced by her when she jumps on him. Her arms wind around his neck and instinctively, he catches her, one hand on the back of her thigh and the other pressed against her lower back.
“Fuck, I missed you,” she breathes.
It’s exactly the homecoming he’d wished for. His heart takes off in his chest. She smells like vanilla and lavender, and her whole body is warm and wrapped around him, and he wonders if maybe they could stay like this for the rest of their lives, because God, he’s missed her, too.
With his face buried in her neck, Colin murmurs, “Yeah, me, too.” Neither of them really let go, and he doesn’t want to read into it that much because—he doesn’t even know. Because he’s scared, maybe. Probably. Because he doesn't understand it and doesn’t want to. Because for all his exploration of caves and canyons, he isn’t sure he’s ready for whatever he’d find the second he reads the text of their friendship and discovers something hidden between the lines.

Everything changes when a skiing accident has him stuck back in London in his childhood home for several months while he recovers.

Summary
Penelope Featherington is officially over Colin Bridgerton.
Deservedly so. She’d worked tirelessly over the last twelve months to move on from him. She’d listened to Lizzo on repeat, read every self-help book under the sun, been to therapy, and even changed the plot of her novel from a coming-of-age romance to a zombie thriller in a world devoid of men. In fact, she was seeing someone, not exclusively, but it was certainly heading in that direction. She’d done everything in her power to move on from her stupid, heart-wrenching, soul-destroying crush. Everything short of having a lobotomy.
Which was why it was a tad concerning that she’d just shagged him.
