    Summary

    Post-Season 3, Penelope and Colin get a cat.

     

    The truth was that Colin would do anything within his power to make his wife happy, and watching her all tucked up in bed engrossed in a book with the extravagantly fuzzy grey and white tabby purring and burrowing into her side, there could be no doubt that Sir Bingley Bridgerton’s feline companionship pleased the new Mrs. Bridgerton.

    It’s just that with Lord Debling off in the wilds of wherever and Colin’s ring on Penelope’s finger, he had rather thought he would be finished with competing for Pen’s affections. Alas.

    Summary

    Rae hadn’t considered herself a cat person before, but cuddling that tiny thing with its round blue eyes and cinnamon fur as soon as Gen handed her over was all she needed to fall in love.

     

    All Rae needed in life were her quiet days off with Penelope and their cuddles after long days of working as a housekeeper.
    What she needed less of was their late night visitor.

     

    For the past three weeks, at around three in the morning, Rae was woken up by the sound of a pair of paws scratching at the sliding door to her backyard.

     

    They’re cats. It’s a cat!Polin au.

    Summary

    Penelope also knew that she had it far better than any other governess. The Cranes welcomed Penelope to dine with them every night. Penelope and Phillip struck up their own friendship, sharing amused looks as Eloise launched into yet another impressive rant. The Cranes encouraged Penelope’s writings as she inched away at a novel over the last two years.

    Penelope was mostly satisfied with the path her life had taken over the last two years.

    However, there was always the undercutting, painful part of her heart that wondered: what if.

    -

    Shortly after Penelope turned down Colin's proposal, Eloise offered to employ her as Amanda and Oliver's governess. It was a good job for Penelope and she enjoyed her time at Romney Hall, though she missed Colin who had been traveling for the last two years. With the Heart and Flowers ball approaching, Penelope hoped she might finally move on from Colin.

    Him making his first appearance in England since Eloise's wedding might make that goal harder.

    Summary

    Violet was right. There would come a time when Penelope found someone worthy of her love and attention. There’s no way Penelope would be able to find the time to join the Bridgertons for Christmas once she was married.

    That was unacceptable. That couldn’t happen. Eloise wouldn’t let that happen.

    There was only one way to ensure that Penelope kept attending the Bridgerton Christmas.

    Penelope had to become a Bridgerton.

    -

    After Penelope leaves the Bridgerton House to celebrate Christmas with her own family, Eloise is determined that by next Christmas, Penelope will be on her way to becoming a Bridgerton. She sets Penelope up with her single siblings, excluding Colin.
