    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

    Penelope learned a long time ago that she would never be the princess of her story and that Colin would ever offer her a happily ever after.

    But one night, a little misunderstanding (really, it could have happened to anyone) and a gorgeous pair of shoes may just turn her life into a fairytale after all.

    Summary

    “Oh, do not be sorry, I am happy that you were the one to write. It was always a joy to see your handwriting on the envelope.” Colin says, reaching to touch her hand.

    Penelope flinches slightly. She knows Colin is a tactile person, but she did not expect him to grasp her hand that way. She notes that for later. Now is not the time to ruminate on why her friend would feel the need. It is only a friendly gesture. Nothing more.

    POLIN WEEK DAY 5:

    Sweet sweet Penelope had no idea they were dating, but make it regency.
