Summary
"Pen and Alfie are having their third date on Friday night!" Hyacinth explained with the kind of giddy smile only a teenage girl could credibly muster, while simultaneously leaning over the table and attempting to steal Eloise’s wine glass. Penelope, meanwhile, looked directly up at the ceiling, mortified that once again the entire table was weighing in on her love life. Could she not have any peace?
"Hmmm." Colin pretended to consider the point, but he was mostly trying to stop his lip from curling. He did not like Alfie Debling. What kind of stupid name was that anyway? What grown man went by “Alfie”? He sounded like someone’s pet dachshund. “Ooo Alfie come here for belly rubs”, “Don’t shit on the rug, Alfie”.
*****
Colin Bridgerton finds himself in the unenviable position of having offered to help Penelope Featherington cook a seduction dinner for her plant-loving paramour. It just happens to be the same dinner that was prepared for Colin before he lost his virginity, and it is bringing back regrets and all kinds of feelings for his best friend that he thought he had buried away for good.
Aka the NYT Pizza Interview we all wanted, featuring the Great Auk, Alfie x Alfie and the Contessa.Bookmarked by RusticGeologist

Summary
Penelope has accidentally joined a cult.
A hapless, bumbling family cult that has her tied up as a “virgin” sacrifice to a demon.
Never mind that she’s neither a virgin nor remotely devout: they insist she’s the chosen one.
But the real surprise isn’t the ritual; it’s Colin, a shy, awkward demon who might be the least terrifying thing about this whole fiasco.

“Penelope Anne Featherington,” he says, turning to her with hands on his hips, expression gleeful. “Did you break the bed?”
She does her best impression of a dog who’s ripped all the down from a pillow. He can’t prove anything.
“I did,” she says.
Damn. There’s always been a disconnect between her mouth and her brain.or
Penelope's bed breaks. Of course it's Colin who finds her.

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.

Summary
“You’re so soft.” He rubs her belly, fingers grazing, and the fire in Penelope’s stomach roars. “I love how you feel here. Like satin.” His voice is hushed, almost awed.
“Are you this soft everywhere, Pen?”
Her breath hitches in her throat. She doesn’t dare exhale.
She waits in the dark silence, the only sound her heartbeat in her ears.
“C-can I feel?”
Penelope and Colin fool around whilst hungover at Aubrey Hall, and turn their relationship upside down

“Erm… well… fuck. Ok. Colin.” She clears her throat. “I’m so sorry, but this is a call of shame.”
“A what?”
“A call of shame. I might… I might have chlamydia.”
“Oh.” MY FUCKING GOD. He doesn’t say that part out loud but he thinks it very loudly. “Ok.” She’s going to be freaking out.
“No. No, not ok. Not ok at all. We fucked!”
“I remember.” It is absolutely top of the wank bank.
“And not like sensible adults.”

Summary
Before the fights and the couples’ therapy and the slow, inevitable drift. Before the night he came home from work to find Marina on the sofa, pale and drawn, already knowing every word that was about to come out of her mouth (because the words were already on his tongue, weren’t they?). Before the thousands spent on divorce lawyers and moving into the sad flat Anthony found for him and having to tell the fucking kids (worst bit – Oliver had gotten so quiet and Amanda had cried silently; wouldn’t let either of them touch her).
He could have gotten out of it. Ben had called him and said we can find someone else in a way that made it very clear they probably couldn’t, and Colin being Colin (reliable; helpful – a dope, maybe), had said no, no, I’ll do it.
Which is how he ends up in Bari, parked in a service station in a cramped hire car; forty-five; divorced; and about to embark on a two-week trip across Italy he had booked in an attempt to save his marriage. Without, you know, his wife.
.OR: post-divorce, Colin Bridgerton takes his friend Penelope on a road trip to Italy

Pen sends a risky text to Colin even though they're at a family gathering. Even though they're not together. Even though they have never, EVER done anything of the sort before. But it's just a joke, so it's probably fine, right? Right???

What’s a Little Sex Between Friends? by artku
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn

Summary
When Colin learns that Pen's lack of time for a relationship hasn't dimmed her need for sex, he offers up his cock to spare her from the purported dangers of booty calls. Who knows, maybe he can convince her to want more. Specifically, with him. He'll at least have a grand time trying.
Pen has missed out on too much in life because of her blasted unrequited love for Colin. Realising that the only way to be rid of him is to let him break her heart, she decides to stop holding back and freefall into love. And onto his cock. A few orgasms will help hasten her towards her goal, after all.
Swirling sex into friendship poses complications; and between assumptions, equivocations, and a complete inability to ask for what they want, Colin and Penelope find that there is nothing little about 'a little sex between friends.'

Summary
During a perfectly normal study session, Colin asks what he swears is an innocent question.
Because it seems like having built-in pillows on one’s chest would make laying on one’s stomach and studying for an upcoming English exam almost comfortable.
Then Penelope invites him to see for himself exactly how comfortable it is, and Colin’s afternoon takes a decidedly unexpected turn.

“You good, bro?” Will asked over the Discord call. He teased, but Colin wasn’t in the mood.
“’M f—ine,” Colin grunted. “Need a jungler to assist.”
A breath of warm air brushed his ear. "Are you good, Colin?" Pen murmured mischievously.
He couldn’t respond without giving away his current situation. He was already struggling to focus in the middle of the game. If he spoke, they would know Pen was in the room with him.
Then they might ask what she was doing.
And there was no way he could explain that she was currently perched on his lap, clinging to him like a koala, with his cock in her cunt as she gently, leisurely, gave him a full, throbbing erection, barely moving at all.

Summary
“What I was saying is that I believe the G-spot orgasm is a lie. It’s a myth. Something told to teenage girls to entice them into having sex so they’ll lose their virginities in so-so fashion in the back of a car only to be left a few weeks later by some loser looking to repopulate the penguins in Antarctica and —” She trailed off as Eloise started to poke her in the ribs and Daphne mumbled “Girrrrrl” into her drink quietly.
Colin’s brain felt fuzzy as he absorbed her words. He knew she was referencing her terrible ex-boyfriend Alfred. But now he knew that fucker took her virginity and did a terrible job and what was he supposed to do with that information? File it away, probably, so that he could unpack it at 3:00 in the morning on a random Tuesday.
At twenty-seven years old, he’d had his share of sexual experiences. None of it had been particularly mind-blowing, and as he thought harder, he couldn’t actually remember a partner getting off entirely in that way. Or had they? Why was he suddenly not sure?
Was it actually possible that Penelope was right?
No, that couldn’t be true.

Let's have some *platonic* orgasms, like besties do ✌️

“You’re such a good girl, Pen.”
And fuck, she knew in that second she was done for. There was no returning to normal after this.
