    Summary

    Before her last year at Oxford, Eloise Bridgerton is hiding away in Bath for the Summer. Cressida Cowper is doing the exact same. It would be best if they avoided each other.

    Funnily enough, they don't.

    Summary

    Miss Cressida Cowper would, if asked, describe this day as the happiest of her life. After two disappointing seasons, she had finally secured a match, and an ideal one at that.

    Miss Eloise Bridgerton would describe the day as hell, or purgatory, or some such infernal construct of endless torture and suffering. The fact that seeing her dear friend shine in the arms of her soon-to-be husband remains the hardest part of the day to relive doesn’t mean much at all, does it?

    Eloise no longer wants to change the world. She just wants the world to leave her alone.

     

    Or: Comp-het is a bitch, but so is Cressida Cowper.

    Summary

    “She’s not my girlfriend,” Greta hisses, even as she watches the game, watches Carson leading off second base, the focus in her jawline, the flex of her calves, that stupid cap on her head.

    “Oh really?” Maybelle leans over Jess. “Then why are you drooling?”

    Greta’s face goes hot. “I’m not fucking drooling!” she hisses. “Carson and I work together.”

    “Yeah, I’m sure you do lots of things together,” Jess quips, proud of themself.

    Swallowing hard, Greta steels her resolve. They’re getting too close to the truth. She has to remember the rules she and Carson drew up in the back of class once – they should have been taking notes, but Carson’s hand was on her knee, her thumb drawing circles, so she spent most of class just doing her best to keep a clear head.

    “Really, Carson and I are just friends,” she says, firm. “She has a boyfriend.” And that part is true at least. Carson isn’t her girlfriend; that’s Greta’s entire problem.

    (Or, a modern-take on the affair and how it might play out if they were allowed more choices, for better or for worse. The one where they're in college, they're co-workers, they can't keep their hands off each other they just really need to get their shit together.)
