    Summary

    “But when am I getting married? And who am I getting married to?” 

     

    “More like who would want to marry you?” Prudence mumbles as Philippa snickers along unkindly. 

     

    Penelope frowns, for a moment she wonders if her mum will tell Prudence to stop, that being mean also isn’t ladylike, but she doesn’t do that, she just ignores it. “Well, you’re a little too young to be getting married right now, that will have to wait until you’re a bit older, but as for who you’re going to marry… I suppose we’ll have to wait and see.”

     

    Two days after the wedding, Penelope knocks a boy off his bike by accident with her yellow hat. He laughs with her about it instead of yelling at like she’d assumed he would, and the moment she hears his laugh she knows that she’s met the love of her life, and the minute she opens the door she tells her mum that she knows exactly who she’s going to marry one day.

     

    She’s going to marry Colin Bridgerton, the flowers said so.

    OR

    At nearly every single wedding she goes to, Penelope catches the bouquet. These are the various times it happens, and a couple of times when it doesn't.

    Summary

    "Everyone has their unrequited love story, yeah? My best friend, she had a brother. Well, she had four brothers, but there was one in particular. He was like the sun… and I—I was constantly pulled into his orbit."

    It was a throwaway line in a throwaway interview that nobody was meant to read.

    A story about missed connections and growing older and what happens when you finally stop running.

    Summary

    During Kate and Anthony's wedding festivities, Penelope is roped into a tradition where women have the name of the person they love inscribed into their henna.

    Summary

    “Our chauffeur is here!” Eloise shouts, flanked by Daphne and Francesca.

    “You two need rides?” He asks while they load Eloise into the car.

    “Michaela’s sober. She’s driving us,” Francesca says. “Good luck with… all that.”

    “He knows exactly what to do with all that.”

    Summary

    Colin has grown accustomed to his wife’s replies. In fact, he likes them very much. Sometimes, he believes he knows them better than he knows his own self:

    Yes, darling.

    Do not be foolish, Colin.

    Dearest, could you fetch Elliot’s rattle?

    It is only when they move their effects back to Penelope’s childhood home that he learns there are some she has yet kept back from him.

    For those unaware, emotional intimacy very much turns them on.
