Summary
The silence grew heavier and heavier, until Penelope let out with the most broken voice Benedict had ever heard from her “He left me”.
He slowly took her in his arms as she sniffed softly in his shirt.
“We Bridgertons take care of each other” Benedict offered. “If you’re pregnant, that baby will have everything they could ever need”.
Whatever warmth that had started to crawl into Penelope faded in an instant. She got herself free of his arms and fought back the tears. Was that it? Was that his only concern? A hypothetical baby? She thought she was a part of the family, as honorary as the title got. Was that the condition under which she could be a “Bridgerton”? Have Colin’s child? Did he care so little about her as a person if she was not pregnant? Now that Colin had left, she felt like a problem that the Bridgerton family needed to solve.

Summary
The past 8 weeks of Penelope Featherington’s life have been… Unexpected.
Week 1 was confusion: why did you leave without waking me up, Colin? was it that bad? lol
Week 2 was loneliness: Anthony told me you’re with him and Ben right now. are you mad at me or something?
Week 3 was frustration: one time. my first time. we said nothing would change.
Week 4 was pure anger: what happened to your promise to be a better friend? if you didn’t mean it, then why say it at all? screw you.
Week 5 was a late period, not unusual for Pen, but still cause for concern: Colin, i really need my friend right now. why is Anthony here for me more than you?
Week 6 was an encounter. Brunch. Colin and Marina announcing their engagement and pregnancy.
Week 7 was surrender: i get it. you’re doing what’s right for the baby. i’ll leave you alone.
Week 8 was a positive pregnancy test… and realizing she was on her own.When Penelope finds out she’s unexpectedly expecting, who does she turn to? The only person who noticed.

Summary
Benedict is feeling lost and lonely. Anthony is caught up in a love affair with his wife and the rest of his siblings are all caught up in their own lives. Benedict has barely been able to pick up a paintbrush in months - he’s dropped out of the Academy to paint his own way, but the images refuse to come. When Eloise suggests he needs a change of perspective, he realises he has always overlooked Penelope and assumed she was Colin’s. If Colin isn’t interested in her, Benedict just might be. Can Benedict convince Penelope he is a serious prospect for her?
Penelope is used to being burned by the ton, but she’s not used to having the flames come from Bridgerton House. She had decided she wanted nothing more to do with them, but when Colin apologises, and Eloise wants to make amends, Penelope thinks she can move past the pain without losing her heart to them again. But then Benedict is there and he’s sweet and kind and charming and Penelope cannot do this to herself again, can she?

The Space Between Us by chantyssi

Summary
It was the negative space between them that told the story: not what was there, but what wasn’t. The silence between their conversations, the glance that didn’t linger, the chance not taken.
aka the story where Colin loved Penelope but not in the way she wanted and how Penelope had Colin but he hadn’t known she was his to hold.
A hollow space where something beautiful might have lived, if one had only known sooner.
