    Summary

    "Col, could you give me a hand?" Penelope looked up from her place in the sand, handing the tube of sunscreen toward him.

    "Sure, baby," Colin said reflexively, initially confused by the alarmed eye-widening of his already freckling girlfriend. His cheeks burned, whispering a soft sorry as he looked around them to see if anyone was paying the pair any mind. Though it would come as a relief to Penelope, Colin was somewhat disappointed no one heard. She was his baby. It would do others good to know.

    But alas, patience.

    —or, "secret dating" at the beach on the Bridgertons annual holiday.

    Summary

    At the end of the day, it's just biology.

    Penelope tells herself this endlessly. She also tells herself that Colin Bridgerton has looked right through her for ten years, that asking him to help her through her heat is purely transactional, and that she is definitely, definitely not still in love with him.

    Summary

    "Can I help you find something?"

    Penelope Featherington jumps at the sound of a voice coming from behind her. She shouldn't be surprised, however, that the young, dark-haired, friendly-looking man who was behind the counter earlier is checking on her now. She's been standing frozen for the last few minutes in front of a wide display of items lined up on a wall that are entirely foreign to her. They're entirely foreign to her because she's a virgin in a sex shop, and suddenly the grand plans she had coming in here today all feel very, very stupid.

    --

    Or, virgin Pen wanders into Colin's sex shop one day in an unusual beginning to their happily ever after.

    Summary

    Colin blinks and tries to get his bearings. One moment he and Penelope were in the cinema, the next they were… (could this be right? It’s too crazy to even think it)… IN THE FILM!!

    🎬🎬🎬

    Brimsley sits back in his chair, popcorn in hand, ready to enjoy the show.

    This would work, he was sure of it. These two idiots in love will definitely realise their feelings if they have to roleplay as some classic on-screen couples!

    It’s fool proof. They’ll be smooching in no time!
