Summary
Colin was on the end of his rope. It had been but five days since Penelope Featherington had flipped his world on its head and Colin couldn’t take it anymore.
His days were filled with a manageable, distractible longing, but the nights were only becoming more and more unbearable. He couldn’t think of anything but the taste of her perfect soft lips, the gasp he swallowed, the way her fullness felt against him. He would’ve taken anything she gave him in that moment.
OR Colin Bridgerton after he kissed Penelope cannot get her out of his head and acts on his deranged thoughts in the middle of the night by sneaking into her room.

Summary
The room was dim, the windows shuttered tight against the outside world. A single desk lamp cast long shadows across the worn wooden table, where two cups of untouched tea had long since gone cold.
“Do you understand the assignment?” came the voice across from him, low, clipped, and final.
Colin didn’t blink. “Yes, sir.”
The man nodded once. “Good. You leave in a week’s time.”
~~~

Summary
The plan is this: come home, get a real job, stop running away from the only woman he has ever truly wanted, and make Penelope Featherington see him as something other than her goofy, perpetually wandering best friend.
The plan is simple and elegant, and all sorted—except for that final little bullet point. No big deal.
What could possibly go wrong?

Summary
Everyone is pestering Colin Bridgerton about his Valentine’s Day plans.
He’s planning to do what he always does: spend it with Penelope, eating pizza, and watching terrible romcoms.
But apparently, according to everyone he knows and loves, that’s not nearly enough for Pen. He’s supposed to be doing something romantic this year—for some reason.
None of it makes sense to Colin, because he and Penelope are JUST friends.
…right?

Summary
**STORY COMPLETE**
Colin and Penelope couldn’t have been more in love. They were strangers when they met… two lives crossing paths by sheer luck. But the moment their eyes met, something shifted. It was immediate, electric, as though the universe had been quietly orchestrating this encounter all along. They fell in love at first sight… no slow burn, no hesitations. Just a headlong dive into something that felt inevitable... untouchable.
Their relationship unfolded like a dream. Every date felt like a scene from a storybook. They had fallen hard and fast. Within a few months, they were engaged. Their wedding was nothing short of magic… sun-drenched vows, dancing under fairy lights, and a room filled with people who believed, without a doubt, they were made for each other.It was perfect. Too perfect, perhaps. Because just when it seemed life had handed them a forever kind of love… it was as if fate’s script had been stolen, its sacred design undone by a whisper in the dark, uninvited… leaving only ruin in place of what was meant to be.

Summary
He was twelve when he first saw it in a dream.
He remembers asking his mother to take him to a paint shop the next day, desperate to find the right shade. In his dream, he had floated in it, this colour; had let it pour over him and wash into every pore on his skin until he was saturated with it, and God, Colin felt right for the first time in his life. He was desperate for it, then – desperate to paint his room that colour, or buy linens in that particular shade – anything so he could feel the gentle rock and warmth of love that he had felt in his dream.
“And what colour is it?” his mother had asked patiently.
“Blue,” Colin had replied. “But not an ordinary blue. I’ve never seen this blue before.”

Summary
What if the story was inverse?
Penelope Featherington is admired and highly sought after in society while being friends with the unfashionable and garish Bridgerton family. There is a special friendship of more than ten years with Eloise and Colin in particular since they are the siblings closest in age to her and her brother.
Yet what Penelope thinks is friendship is the deepest of unrequited love for Colin...until he overhears her put the final nail in his coffin of hope and he finally accepts that it's time to give up that dream.
His final farewell and cold goodbye leaves Penelope's head spinning with unbidden thoughts and Colin is unsure if he can find anyone else that speaks to his heart as she always has.
The timing of this finding is most inconvenient because there is no true escape for him since he is spending the off-season with her family in the country and avoiding her seems impossible - no matter how hard he tries.

Summary
“Colin?” Penelope's voice was barely a whisper.
“It’s me,” Colin rasped. “I… I need your help.”
“Colin, what… what happened?” Her voice hitched; the poker she had grabbed to defend against the intruder, forgotten, fell to the floor as she took in his blood-covered frame.
He leaned against the doorframe, his weight heavy, as if the effort of standing was too much. “I had nowhere else to go.”
OR
Penelope and Colin used to be friends before everything fell apart. Now they are indifferent at best and rivals at worst. So, then why is Colin in her doorway in the middle of the night?
