    Summary

    Colin can’t help but catch Anthony’s dismissive words: “They’ve danced a couple of times together at a ball. Colin has done the same with Penelope Featherington. It does not signify.”

    He does not care at all for the way those words make him feel.

    A Season 1 “what if” AU.

    Summary

    “I do not know how to swim.”

    The words come out in a rush, like a waterfall tumbling over rocks.

    “No one knows,” Penelope adds miserably. “Not even Eloise.”

    “I know, Pen,” Colin says, and his voice is as gentle as the lapping of water along the pond’s shore.

    “H-how? All those summers we spent together. Why did you never say anything before?”

    “Because you did not say anything, and I had no wish to embarrass or upset you. There is no shame, and it is never too late to learn.”

    OR

    Colin has been waiting for Penelope’s debut for years—finally, he will be able to court her properly. But when she flees the presentation hall, everything he hoped for shatters. One summer morning, a swimming lesson changes everything.
