Calendar Chaos by fullysplendid for Totes_Papilio

Summary
Every December Colin sends his friend Penelope a fun advent calendar – something silly toys or tasty treats. It’s their thing. A little tradition which started years ago.
Only this year when the calendar arrives Penelope’s heart stops. Her brain melts. Her whole world turned on its head.
This calendar didn’t contain toys or treats. This calendar didn’t contain anything at all, except written suggestions.
Sexy suggestions.
Because apparently her friend Colin had decided to send her a sexy advent calendar for horny couples.
———————
“I can’t believe after all these years this is how he tells you he’s down to fuck.” Gen laughs like a maniac. “I’m not sure if he’s smooth or psychotic?”
“Shut the fuck up, Gen! Shut the fuck up.”
She needs to concentrate.

Summary
“You like it when I call you a good girl, don’t you?” he purred, leaning down to kiss her cheeks, her forehead, her jaw.
“You know I do,” she mumbled. Her face must be bright red, because the warmth was not going away.
“I mean, even when it’s not directed toward you,” he smirked. He pulled back to watch her reaction, her eyes wide.
“Hmm?” she tried to play it cool, but her loud gulp didn’t give off nonchalance.
He pinned her against the counter, his arms bracketing her on either side, but not touching her.
“You like it whenever I say those words,” he said, grinning. “I see you freeze up and turn that pretty shade of pink every time I say it, even if you don’t think I notice.”
︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶
Pen really likes it when Daddy call her a good girl.
No, like, really likes it.

Summary
148 bpm. Who knew this would be the number that broke him?
ـــــــــــــﮩ٨ـ❤️ﮩ٨ـﮩﮩ٨ـــــــــــ
Moments after Colin realizes he's in love with his best friend, he learns from his sister, Eloise, that Pen is in her room with her muscular new beau, Professor Debling, getting a 'vigorous exercise’ per their synced-up workout app.
Tormented and heartbroken, Colin’s control shatters after a fateful run-in with a half-naked Alfred at midnight, when he shares his plans to whisk Pen away.
He only meant to talk, but she answers the door in just a silk robe and Colin sees things he should not have, starting a relentless, agonizing game of truth and touch, designed to push Pen to the brink and force a confession Colin is terrified to hear: that he might be too late.
They play dirty, hearts on edge.
And the winner? The winner gets it all…

Summary
He glanced back up to her face, her blue eyes wide and shiny, her cheeks flushed despite the poor evening lighting, her lips pink and swollen due to worrying them between her teeth. Colin felt like he could barely breathe. Suddenly, she was tempting him in a way he had been tempted by other women. It was the same feeling he got when he met a beautiful woman at a bar or when meeting up with a tinder date.
But this was different, this was Penelope.
“I don’t ignore you on purpose,” he said softly, his voice a bit lower than he expected. Her entire presence was confusing him.
“You have a funny way of showing it.” She leaned her back against the tree, letting out a sigh and pressing her head against the trunk. He was absolutely done for. The way her neck extended, the expanse of her throat just begging for his lips. Her chest still heaving, each inhalation thrusting her breast up where the moonlight was so helpfully casting shadows in all the right dips and bulges, making her look like a siren.
****************************************************
On the eve of his wedding to Marina, Colin is presented with many confusing truths, which may lead him in another direction.

Summary
Penelope woke up in her bed feeling the biggest headache she had ever experienced in her life.
She could not understand why people liked alcohol so much, it tasted horrible, it made feel dizzy and vulnerable and the next day she felt she was going to die.
“PENELOPE FEATHERINGTON!!!” She heard her mother calling for her.
Portia Featherington enter her bedroom with her face red of anger.
She dropped a paper in Penelope’s lap.
“What is the meaning of this!?” Her mother
asked.Penelope looked at the paper confused, it was the newspaper of Lady Whistledown.
"I would like to end this edition with probably the most scandalous thing that happened in last night’s ball, Penelope Featherington had a change on her appearance, I would not blame you dear reader for not noticing it, this author often forgets her existence, however Colin Bridgerton apparently did notice it, the two of them were seen in a dark corner, outside Lady’s Danbury exchanging something more than their regards."

Summary
Colin and Pen Happily Ever After but they take the long way around. Pen discloses she has had involvement with every Bridgerton before him. Weird idea right? Just trust me and go for a ride.
This plot borrows some from book, show and fan head cannon. Pen is very much part of the Bridgerton Family fold.
this story has a spotify playlist and is non linear. songs per chapter, ages and dates in each chapter.
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6IDfYvT6pGNW3hPfnKpMAK?si=RLag8A0DRhGURobU_vb6CQ&pi=a-0XgVoITjSfm0
this is technically the 2nd fan fic I have ever written as I started this not long after A Convincing Proposal.
Huge love and thanks to WMN of fics and recs podcast who has held my hand gently through this daunting process and been the biggest cheerleader and all-round oracle. She's brilliant, if you haven't checked out the podcast, do yourself a favour and go. She celebrates fanfiction writers, Polin is very much the focus. It's amazing. GO!
