    Summary

    What if, after enduring more pain than she could ever imagine, Penelope finally gave in and told Colin how she felt?

    --

    “You don’t have to say anything. I get it.”

    Penelope took three steps and felt a hand on her wrist. Colin grabbed her arm, pulling firmly, and spinning her around. His hand cradled her face as he bent down to kiss her, breathing her in as his lips covered hers.

    That’s all it took for Penelope’s brain to short circuit. Colin was kissing her. It was soft and gentle, but sent sparks to all of her limbs. Her body turned into gelatin.

    When they broke apart, she placed her hands on his chest, feeling the thud of his heartbeat underneath his shirt. His hand remained cradling her cheek.

    “Why did you do that?” she asked quietly, her heart in her throat.

    “I don’t know,” he breathed. He looked so young and scared suddenly. “I just felt like I should.”

    Summary

    "Bet I could still catch you," he tells her and she glowers at him but he can see the little twitch in her pout. She wants to smile. He feels good. "Now, come on. Give me a hug. I haven't seen you in forever."

    As he wraps his arms around her, gathers all her plushness to his chest, his nose is filled with her scent.

    And Colin Bridgerton forgets the performance. Forgets that he has to be careful with her. Forgets that his family are about two feet away.

    Because she smells fucking divine. Not the right word, surely — too exalted for the earthiness, the rich salt that makes his jaw work and his tongue press to the roof of his mouth and his fingers dig into the rolls on her back. Does she always smell like this, he wonders — this dirty, bright and cloying — or did she just forget deodorant? He can't recall — can't recall anything, except the vivid musk of her, fresh and sweet like the cut stalks of flowers, sweat and tang and — fuck — he's hard. Hard and leaking, immediately and so profusely it kind of feels like he's pissed himself. Fuck. Fuck.
