    Summary

    “I—” she stared up at him and said in a small voice, “it’s too much to ask of you.”

    “It’s not,” Colin said firmly. “Don’t overthink it,” he urged her.

    Ten minutes ago, she had no home and no chance that she would ever know where her dad was. Colin had just walked into the room and taken control of everything within a matter of minutes, like her own personal white knight.

    “Just let someone take care of you for once.”

    In which Colin slowly, inadvertently, and inevitably becomes Penelope’s sugar daddy.

    Summary

    “Colin!” Penelope shouts, her face lighting up with a smile that had to be a million or two watts, rivaling the brightness of the sun.

    “Pen,” he says, feeling some kind of weight drop from his shoulders, replaced by her when she jumps on him. Her arms wind around his neck and instinctively, he catches her, one hand on the back of her thigh and the other pressed against her lower back.

    “Fuck, I missed you,” she breathes.

    It’s exactly the homecoming he’d wished for. His heart takes off in his chest. She smells like vanilla and lavender, and her whole body is warm and wrapped around him, and he wonders if maybe they could stay like this for the rest of their lives, because God, he’s missed her, too.

    With his face buried in her neck, Colin murmurs, “Yeah, me, too.” Neither of them really let go, and he doesn’t want to read into it that much because—he doesn’t even know. Because he’s scared, maybe. Probably. Because he doesn't understand it and doesn’t want to. Because for all his exploration of caves and canyons, he isn’t sure he’s ready for whatever he’d find the second he reads the text of their friendship and discovers something hidden between the lines.

    Summary

    "Eloise came to a stop outside Penelope’s bedroom and threw open the door.
    There, in the centre of the room, was Colin—her idiot of a brother—very much wrapped around Penelope, very much shirtless, and very much in the middle of something Eloise had no desire to witness.
    Colin was moaning, Penelope was gasping, and Eloise was screaming—loudly."

    or: upon returning from scotland, eloise goes to visit her best friend and brother. she traumatises herself walking in on them instead.
