Bless The Telephone by KatofKanals
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn
09 Dec 2024

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.”

Sherlock grunted, but John ignored it, focusing instead on working his tongue along the seam of Sherlock’s lips. He needed this, needed something, to prove that Sherlock was still here, alive and in his arms, and it was either this or beating him bloody.

I'm Making Her a Mama by KatofKanals

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.”

Summary
“I want to feel you,” she tells him breathlessly. “Please, Colin.”
He stops her hand from moving. “Are you sure?” He searches her face for certainty.
She gulps and thinks about her answer. He wonders if she’s thinking about Alfie. “Maybe this isn’t the best idea,” she eventually says.
Colin deflates, casting his eyes away from her and up to the ceiling. “You’re right,” he agrees.
“Unless,” she starts, and he’s snapping his gaze back towards her, watching with bated breath as she blinks her eyes open to stare at him surreptitiously. “Maybe if you put it in and don’t move. If neither of us come, we wouldn’t be fucking, just keeping each other warm.”
Or…
Colin and Penelope are stranded at Aubrey Hall during a snow storm with no electricity or heat. They haven’t seen each other in five years, and despite a complicated history, they have to get creative to stay warm.

Summary
Penelope and Colin have been skirting the line between friendship and romance for a solid decade now. Each has feelings they keep carefully hidden, each has things they have to do with their own lives before they can comfortably be part of another’s. The time has simply never been right, the risk of losing their treasured friendship always too great.
But now Colin is back in London for good and Penelope’s writing career is a blazing success. Now they have plans to spend a whole evening together and now Colin has a special tea he’s brought back from his travels. One that’s meant to clear the mind and focus the desires.
It does.

Summary
To date, Penelope has never missed a New Year’s Eve with the Bridgertons. Not since that very first one after she and Eloise found each other and became forever joined under the mutual promise of best friends forever.
This is the first year Penelope has ever seriously thought about not attending.
Because three weeks ago, at Anthony and Kate’s annual holiday party, she drunkenly kissed Colin under the mistletoe.
And he drunkenly kissed her back.
The one where these two idiots get stranded in a blizzard on their way to Aubrey Hall. Find a hotel, but said hotel only has one room left. And (GASP!) that room only has one bed. So, naturally, these two are forced to reconcile certain truths with each other.

“I—” she stared up at him and said in a small voice, “it’s too much to ask of you.”
“It’s not,” Colin said firmly. “Don’t overthink it,” he urged her.
Ten minutes ago, she had no home and no chance that she would ever know where her dad was. Colin had just walked into the room and taken control of everything within a matter of minutes, like her own personal white knight.
“Just let someone take care of you for once.”
In which Colin slowly, inadvertently, and inevitably becomes Penelope’s sugar daddy.

Summary
Penelope is just thirteen the first time she almost tells Colin she loves him.
She has loved him for a whole year, ever since her horrid yellow hat flew clean off of her head and knocked Colin off of his bike. Penelope had apologised profusely through clenched teeth and tense shoulders. Then, Colin surprised her. He laughed. Not at her, but with her.
One year later and Penelope still hears that sound when she closes her eyes and settles into sleep. She may be young, but she isn’t stupid—this is love. This has to be love.
Or, the five times Penelope almost tells Colin she loves him, and the one time he tells her.
