    Summary

    Colin huffs and frowns. “I like it here.”

    “Kneeling on my hard, outdated linoleum kitchen floor?”

    Nodding emphatically, he affirms, “It’s where I belong.”

    Penelope chokes on an ill-timed sip of wine. “What?”

    “I like looking up at you.”

    -`♡´-

    Here's what I imagine would happen if you took a recently enlightened Colin, fed him alcohol, and let him play with his bestie's beautiful, curly hair.

    Summary

    Colin had sworn to not two, not three, but four people he would not be in attendance: Eloise, Daphne, his mother, and Benedict. But Pen wouldn’t have come if she knew he was going to be in attendance, and Penelope needs his family nearly as much as she needs a holiday. He can’t let her vanish from their lives just because he’d hurt her feelings. That’s Colin’s fault, not Penelope’s. That’s his punishment to bear.

    It’s just that the punishment is staying away from Penelope, and Colin can’t quite stand the thought of bearing it all the way.

    --

    Or, Penelope Featherington gets severely sunburned and Colin Bridgerton is just trying to get the girl.

    Summary

    "So…." He awkwardly starts, "What exactly seems to be the issue here, sweetheart?"

    God, he's so…dirty. His arms are covered in grease, smeared all the way up to his shoulder. He can barely wipe his hands clean with the blue cloth. His hair? It's greasy. Probably from all heat and well, being under all the cars that are here.

    "Uh—I can barely get her to start lately," Penelope mutters. "There is this awful screeching when I get her to start. If I keep trying, eventually it starts. I'm sorry, I don't really know a ton about cars."

    The one where Penelope Featherington breaks down and meets pervy mechanic Colin Bridgerton.
