Summary
“Read it again Pen,” Colin said softly.
She looked back at him, eyes wide and blinking, biting her lower lip, drawing in his attention.
Until today, not an impure thought had passed through his mind of Penelope. He suddenly felt like the wind was knocked out of him. His eyes snapped up to hers, her blue eyes wide and blinking rapidly. He wasn’t sure what to say. It felt like the air had changed around them. All he could think about was her in that moment. Touching her hair, caressing her cheeks, kissing her lips.
He took a deep breath. He could not make sense of the impulses he was having, “please, read it again.”
She swallowed, turned back to the page, and started reading it again. He listened to her sweet voice recite the words of Byron. Did she pick this poem on purpose? ‘How could she’ he reasoned, ‘she’s never seen this book, how would she know’. He was so lost in thought; he didn’t realize she had finished. He wasn’t ready for her to stop reading, what was the last part? She looked over at him again. Had she moved closer to him? Or was he leaning into her?
“Again,” He said, wondering if she could hear him as it came out almost as a whisper.

Her Constant Admirer by Pollination

Summary
Instead of dismissing Penelope with a thoughtless remark, imagine if Colin had responded with: "While I am not courting Miss Penelope Featherington, she remains my most cherished friend, a lady whose wit and warmth surpass all others. To court her would indeed be an honor beyond measure, though I fear I am unworthy of such a distinction. An untitled man, still searching for his place, could hardly hope to match a woman of her grace and brilliance.
Or picture an alternate universe where Colin, unaware of his growing feelings, has long seen Penelope as a constant in his life. Upon his return from travels, he is taken aback when Lady Featherington expresses her gratitude, for it is his regard that has rendered Penelope the most sought-after woman among eligible bachelors and even have the possibility to be named this season’s diamond in her third year out.
