    Summary

    Penelope Featherington is on holiday celebrating her birthday with one of her best friends in literal paradise. All of these things should add up to her spending the week with a beaming smile plastered on her face and having the absolute time of her life. Instead, though, she starts off the trip fixated on the milestone-nature of this particular birthday and one life milestone that she wishes she’d already checked off by this point. Quietly resigned to ringing in her birthday in a few days’ time without making any further progress, Penelope is entirely unprepared for a very helpful offer from her best friend who just also happens to be the person she’d spent years previously hopelessly crushing on.

    --

    Or, the one where Colin takes Penelope’s virginity “as a friend.”

    Summary

    People talk a lot about the physical and emotional impact on women during “that time of the month.” For Penelope Featherington, though, there’s an entirely separate portion of the month that hits her the hardest, and the symptoms she experiences are distinct from that other time. It’s a different sort of ache that settles low in her belly, a different form of discomfort driving her to cocoon herself in bed, and a different type of tenderness that envelopes her body and her mind. As time goes by, it’s only getting harder and harder to deal with on her own. If only she knew someone kind and handsome and trustworthy to help her through it…

    --

    Or, Penelope experiences extreme horniness when she’s ovulating every month and Colin offers to sleep with her “as a friend.”

    Summary

    Penelope is a 25-year-old book editor in London, enjoying a life where she shares a flat with her best friend, gets promoted quickly at work, and spends her time with her friends and pseudo-family, the Bridgertons. She has all the makings of a happy life.

    She's spent years adjusting to the ache in her gut. She's always expected to live with it, to grow around it, and to maybe find some semblance of happiness knowing she would never soothe the pain that consumed her. She tries to put herself out there, to move on, to accept reality. No matter how hard she tries to fall out of love with him, Colin always finds ways to worm his way back into her heart, putting her right back where she started.

    Will she be able to move on? Will she figure out how to live with the pain? Or will the last thing on earth she ever expected to happen finally become real? Could Colin Bridgerton ever love Penelope Featherington?

    Summary

    “We’re friends. I’m happy to do you a favour.”

    She really does mean it. There is nothing Penelope wouldn’t do for Colin Bridgerton.

    But then he raises his eyebrows, clears his throat, and says, “I was wondering if you might consider letting me fuck you and pretend that I am trying to get you pregnant.” He pauses, pondering before he adds: “Please.”

    ---

    Or, after a series of increasingly unhinged sex dreams, Colin asks Penelope if he can roleplay getting her pregnant. Platonically, of course. That should get it out of his system.

    Summary

    The night Penelope is asked the most important question of her life, she is wearing a hot pink feather boa. With sparkles, and a sparkly pink penis tiara to match. Naturally. 

    The question is not will you marry me, which should have been the most important question of her life (a fact of which she is perfectly aware, thank you very much). It is not do you, Penelope Featherington, take Alfred Debling to be your lawfully wedded husband, because she has a few days left before their officiant asks her that particular question.

    “I’m sorry,” Penelope says. “What did you say?” 

    She’d heard him, but she’s drunk in a hot pink feather boa and a penis crown and surely Colin Bridgerton cannot be asking her about regrets.

    Summary

    “Fez?” she asks.

    “Yeah?”

    "There's something I need to tell you.”

    “What’s up?”

    The sound of a sharp gulp slices through the silence. “Last night, um…I got up to use the bathroom.”

    He does not like where this is going.

    “And as I was leaving to go back to the living room, I heard you say my name.”

    Summary

    Lexi reaches her breaking point when she sees Fezco flirting with another girl at a party. The night doesn't end exactly how she had expected.

    “He pounded on the door again, this time harder, and it shook on its frame, the vibration of it reverberating across her body. She turned her head to look at the closed door over her shoulder, her mouth twisting up into a snarl.

    Fuck him, she thought. Fuck him for making me feel this way.”

    Or: Fez is afraid to let himself fall in love. Heartbreak ensues.

    Summary

    “We can’t do this.” It’s half a command and half an attempt to hush the need spooling between them. Lexi flips her leg back over and falls into the thin mattress, and he can barely hear her annoyed huff over the screech that her body weight elicits from the fucking old, uncomfortable pull-out couch.

    Fezco knows it shouldn’t be a thing – they’re adults, in a relationship that’s just passed the one-year mark. And he’s moving into her house on Fairview when his lease is up next month. Practically speaking, he’s already living there. And Suze is, you know, cool about everything.

    But there’s a weird sensation that rolls over him every time he thinks that Lexi’s family might hear them having sex. She confesses it, too. For as sex-positive and progressive as the Howard women are, there’s something stopping his girlfriend from feeling totally free in this house tonight.

    Even though Lexi hadn’t seen him since last summer, Fezco was still insufferable.

    Last summer.

    She still couldn’t think about it without her throat getting tight and her entire body flushing from head to toe.

    - One friend group. One enormous secret.

    One unforgettable summer.

    "Have you ever picked someone up, you know, that you picked up?”

    “Nah, Ion’ wanna cross that line. Prefer for my customers to get home safely without any complications.”

    Oh. He was right, it wasn’t safe for someone to entertain this idea. Lexi let her mind wander. Fez seemed like a good guy, but a few moments of conversation weren’t enough to confirm it. Then again – was this really any different from meeting someone in a bar? Besides the whole knowing where she lived and depending on him to get her there safely part…

    Yeah, she should probably not hit on her driver.

    Lexi feels her insides twist with guilt at Cal’s question to Fez. Now Fez is aware that she knows who Cal is and she didn’t give him a heads up.

    Her cheeks flame in embarrassment at feeling caught, at feeling weak.

    The only reason she came here tonight was to finally, for once in her life, take the driver’s seat in her life and speak up, but like usual when it mattered, she couldn’t do it.

    Well, that wasn't the whole reason.

    Summary

    The officer standing in front of the prisoner nods his head at her, "You must be, Miss Howard, the student teacher. Hope that are prepared to handle these animals." He lightly nods his head backwards to the prisoner behind him.

    She gives him a curt smile in acknowledgment but can't find her words to respond.

    Lexi knows that she should follow the same advice that was given to the prisoner. Keep your eyes down . But she doesn't.

    She lets her eyes flit up briefly to catch the icy blue of his eyes glaring through her. She lets her chestnut waves fall in front of her face, only allowing for a small window of her eyes to be visible to him. It’s her only shield from his attention.

    Just before she goes to pass him, he slightly cocks his head to the side, one corner of his mouth pulling into the most subtle smirk that none of the guards catch. Or maybe they do, but they don’t care. She feels exposed, as if he is hearing the frantic beating of her heart and feeling the chill crawling up her skin through just his glare.

    ---------

    or When Fez escapes prison on his quest for revenge, the student teacher feels compelled to go on the run with him.
