    Summary

    Penelope had sworn she was done with Colin.
    Done with the longing looks, the foolish hopes, the heartbreak of loving a man who would never see her the way she saw him. But fate, or perhaps Colin’s sheer inability to leave well enough alone, had other plans.
    A note. A meeting. A challenge.
    Suddenly, she’s standing in his bedroom, fists clenched in boxing gloves as if a well-placed punch could settle years of unspoken words, missed chances, and the ache of loving him in silence.

    Or A season 3’s Regency-era filled with chaos, intensity, angst, hurt, and drama, but leading to a beautiful ending.

    Summary

    To an observer, Colin and Penelope were nothing more than frosty acquaintances.

    That did not stop Penelope from lingering in the Bridgerton family wing, however.

    “Took you long enough,” Colin mumbled in Penelope’s ear as he dragged her down the hall towards his room. Penelope could hear her heart pound in her ears as she submitted to him.

    -

    Three years after calling off their engagement, Colin is back in town for the new social season. How much longer can Penelope continue to deny him?

    Summary

    then—

    “See you later, Pen,” Colin calls out to her one last time before making his exit. The nickname rolls off his tongue like it’s nothing, like she’s always been Pen to him.

    Pen.

    (She is done for.)

     

    now—

    “Penelope,” he says her name with breathless wonder as if he can’t believe she’s right in front of him.

    “Colin,” she repeats back to him, and there’s a long pause that follows. There was a time, a very long time, when they would have hugged without a second thought. But things are different now.

    A modern AU lightly inspired by the book People We Meet on Vacation and also every slow burn friends to lovers rom-com to ever exist.
