    Summary

    Colin Bridgerton is obsessed with his best friend's curly red hair.
    OR
    The one where Colin asks Penelope to style his hair.
    OR
    A friends to lovers curly-haired fever dream

    Colin's obsession with Penelope's hair began when he was seven years old and Penelope Featherington, not yet his best friend was five, almost six. Her cherubic face was framed in a halo of red, orange and gold corkscrew curls and when she spoke, or better yet, when she laughed, her curls bounced and it captivated him.

    Over the years his obsession becomes increasingly ridiculous, and Colin, ever oblivious, can't work out why it makes him feel things...

    Summary

    “But if you are not with child then the matter is out of our hands, Pen. What can either you or I do about it?”

    Silence fell.

    Penelope only continued to stare at him and Colin felt the ground suddenly give way beneath his feet as he realised what she was asking him to agree to. Why she had summoned him here this morning. Why she stared up at him now, trembling and white with nerves.

    Dear God.

    “Colin…please. Please. Will you...will you help me?”

    In which a newly widowed and desperate Lady Debling asks Mr Bridgerton to help her conceive an heir.

    Summary

    Colin definitely doesn’t think of Penelope in THAT way. It’s nothing weird, they're both just really tactile people.

    So when Penelope complains that her neck and shoulders and upper back are really stiff due to spending too much time hunched over her keyboard, of course Colin offers to help…

    Or

    The three times Colin 'platonically' massages Penelope, and the first time it's anything but platonic.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington has been trying to get over her crush on her best friend Colin Bridgerton for the last several years. It should be pretty easy to do considering he spends the vast majority of his time away from London and in far off corners of the world as part of his travel writing and social media enterprises. He’s never around and she only sees him a couple of times a year at most. However, it turns out her problem in being unable to get over him has nothing to do with how often she spends time with him in-person. Her problem is the telephone.

    --

    Or, the one where Penelope and Colin start having phone sex as “friends.”

    Summary

    Penelope is quiet for a long while after he nodded his head and confirmed he was inquiring about whether or not she has changed her mind about having a baby with him.

    "I…" she starts before swallowing once. "Well, I suppose as the years have gone on… I have imagined it a time or two, yes."

    Colin knows she is telling the truth, and for the first time in a long time, he is also able to read her and surmise there is more still she is holding back.

    "Is that something you wish for?" he asks cautiously. "A babe? One of your own?"

    Pen's big, pale blue eyes blink at him twice slowly before she starts nibbling on her lip in a decidedly nervous gesture. "That is… We did not… We married for other purposes. I do not expect—"

    "I am not asking what you expect," he interrupts, keeping his tone gentle, though, so as not to scare her out of this spell of vulnerability he's found her in tonight. "I am asking simply what you desire for yourself. Do you want a baby, Pen?"

    "Yes."

    --

    Or, regency era Penelope and Colin have been in marriage of convenience for five years and decide to have a child together—platonically of course.
