MIR: #1 PenelopeFeatherington #1 JuliaQuinn #1 Periodic #1 Ficlet Penelope Featherington was never the beautiful one, never the 'darling of the crowd' nor the 'diamond of the season'. But she was always there, along the edges of the balls. A wallflower. Watching and waiting. Hoping that he would finally look her way. But what would happen if he finds out her secret? For those who have read the books and fancy themselves in love with Mr. Bridgerton, and for those who aspire to have the wit and strength of one Miss Featherington. 2.24.21 *vanilla*

A Bridgerton show/book fanfic, on how a season 3 centering Colin and Penelope might go.

Colin continues his tour with a trip to Italy. However, when his letters to his dear friend, Penelope, go unanswered, he returns home early to see her. Penelope makes it clear that she does not wish to see him, leaving him quite distraught. In his room, Colin finds a love letter addressed to him, the traveling Bridgerton. He now has two goals this season; to get back into Penelope's good graces, and to find who wrote the letter. Penelope has goals this season as well; to find a husband, to get Eloise to forgive her, and to continue her role as Lady Whistledown.

After a night of wonder under flowers and fireworks, Penelope Featherington thought she was on top of the world. Things seemed to go perfectly for once in her life. Until, her best friend discovers something she's been hiding for years. And to top it all off she overhears a conversation she was never meant to hear. And for the first time in her life Penelope truly feels like she's alone in the world. Penelope must look inside herself and decide once and for all if she will continue her usual wallflower ways or if it's time for her to step into the spotlight and claim the life she has always dreamed of having. Colin Bridgerton was, in his own estimation, perfectly happy being single. He enjoyed the occasional dance with the beautiful debutantes and his charming ways lead him to be quite a flirt. However he knew deep down it meant nothing. He was not in search of a wife, in fact he wasn't even ready to entertain the idea of finding one. He did however find himself involved in a rather deep and genuine friendship with one, Miss Penelope Featherington. But when his own foolish remarks threaten to ruin there relationship forever, he must decide whether he can let her go or if there is maybe something he hadn't seen in her before. Could Prince Charming (or rather Mr. Charming) truly set aside his rakish ways for one wallflower? Or will the secrets she's hiding tear them even farther apart? What happens when a wallflower blossoms?

Colin Bridgerton finds himself stuck in a marriage to Penelope Featherington-someone he never would have considered pursuing in the first place. She was his best friend, the one person who understands him, but having to marry her because they were caught in a compromising situation, makes him feel anger towards her! Will they find a way to coexist together? Will they find their way to each other in the end?
