    Summary

    Penelope is quiet for a long while after he nodded his head and confirmed he was inquiring about whether or not she has changed her mind about having a baby with him.

    "I…" she starts before swallowing once. "Well, I suppose as the years have gone on… I have imagined it a time or two, yes."

    Colin knows she is telling the truth, and for the first time in a long time, he is also able to read her and surmise there is more still she is holding back.

    "Is that something you wish for?" he asks cautiously. "A babe? One of your own?"

    Pen's big, pale blue eyes blink at him twice slowly before she starts nibbling on her lip in a decidedly nervous gesture. "That is… We did not… We married for other purposes. I do not expect—"

    "I am not asking what you expect," he interrupts, keeping his tone gentle, though, so as not to scare her out of this spell of vulnerability he's found her in tonight. "I am asking simply what you desire for yourself. Do you want a baby, Pen?"

    "Yes."

    --

    Or, regency era Penelope and Colin have been in marriage of convenience for five years and decide to have a child together—platonically of course.

    Summary

    “Colin, you do realise you’re getting jealous of a dog, right?”

     

    “He has every right to be jealous!” Anthony defended instantly. “Newton’s reign of terror has gone on long enough!”

     

    “Reign of terror?” Kate snorted. “Be serious, Anth-”

     

    “No, no, he’s right.” Simon jumped in.

     

    Daphne shook her head, whether it was in disappointment or amusement, Penelope couldn’t tell. “Oh, Simon, not you too.”

     

    “Whenever Newton picks a favourite, one of us has to lose our wife, and not just for an afternoon, for months.”

     

    “Yeah! I miss my wife!”

     

    “Colin, I’m not your wife.” Penelope reminded him, holding up her ringless hand.

     

    “Not officially.”

    In which, Newton figures out Penelope's pregnant before she does, Colin develops beef with a dog, and a longstanding battle between Newton and all the Bridgerton men is unearthed.

    Summary


    Without knowing what it is called, Colin has always felt different from the men in his life because he doesn’t feel attraction the way that they do. Until he returns from a long trip abroad and, with the help of his friend Michael, he has a few realizations about his best friend Penelope. That, for some people, the emotional connection has to be there for the physical attraction to occur, but when it does it can be quite explosive.

    Or a weekend up at the castle home in Scotland mixed with a game of Never have I ever, leads to Colin exploring his sexual attraction with two of his close friends.

    Summary

    "I would like to marry," Penelope said bluntly. She looked him directly in the eye, daring him to disagree.

    "Right." Colin gave a slow nod of the head, clearly taken aback by the declaration. His eyes had gone wide, giving him a look that was reminiscent of cornered prey.

    It seemed that the heavens were intent upon tormenting her.

    "Not you," she managed to say evenly, although she felt tumultuous waves rocking the boat that was her composure.

    "No, of course not," he agreed hastily, embarrassment evident on his face.
