Summary
This is just a very loose idea I got while doing my 50th re-watch of Bridgerton. I've played with the timeline a little bit, but this takes place at the Hastings Ball in S1E8.
Anthony sees Colin and Penelope speak after going to see Siena and having her shatter his heart, and he feels a little bad for her and has to be her sort of knight in dented armour. Shenanigans to ensue.

Summary
Colin lifts his hand with the cigarette to his lips at the same that his eyes open, his head turns, and he first notices Penelope standing there watching him.
"Fuck," he mutters before looking away from her and to the window. "I'm sorry."
She isn't sure what he's apologizing for really—for smoking or fighting with Marina or maybe both. Regardless, it breaks a little part of her to see him looking so dejected and sad. There's a light missing from him, a weight pulling him down and making him seem smaller. It's not fair, though. He's so inherently good. He doesn't deserve to feel like this. He doesn't deserve to be treated like this. He deserves—
Penelope can't help but blink in surprise even at just the meandering path of her own thoughts, at the idea that just popped into her head about what exactly she thinks Colin Bridgerton deserves at this moment and what exactly she'd like to do to make him feel better. It's ridiculous, right? She shouldn't… She couldn't… But what if she did?
--
Flatmates Penelope and Colin take a winding, complicated, messy path on their friends to lovers journey.

The air at Aubrey Hall turns sweet in August, thick with ripening fruit and something far less innocent.
Penelope believed she was safe from such changes.August disagrees.

Summary
"I just wanted to make sure you didn't need any help," she smiles at him. "You have no idea how many guys have passed out in here."
"I—um—yeah," he stutters. "I—bet."
Smooth. That's the only thing he could really come up with? A few stutters and I bet? He pushes the middle of his glasses up to rest more comfortably on his nose. Putting his hands into his pockets, he tries to flash her a quick easy smile.
"Is this your first time?"
"Uhhhh," he starts. "First time? Like in here?"
The one where a lonely Colin Bridgerton visits a strip club, only to become a regular to a stripper named Penelope.

Summary
“Colin?"
“Yeah, sweeth– Pen?"
She laughs at his slip of tongue, wanting to make a crack at how she's not so sweet after how she asked him to pound into her until she was sore—but she knows her laugh is masking how she truly feels. The rules are to protect her, because Penelope knows this will never last, not in the long run. Colin's never resented them, or if he does, he hides it well.
“Have you heard of subspace?” Penelope finally blurts out.
Penelope and Colin are friends with increasingly frequent benefits. One day, she asks him if he'll get her to subspace.
As a friend.
