    Summary

    then—

    “See you later, Pen,” Colin calls out to her one last time before making his exit. The nickname rolls off his tongue like it’s nothing, like she’s always been Pen to him.

    Pen.

    (She is done for.)

     

    now—

    “Penelope,” he says her name with breathless wonder as if he can’t believe she’s right in front of him.

    “Colin,” she repeats back to him, and there’s a long pause that follows. There was a time, a very long time, when they would have hugged without a second thought. But things are different now.

    A modern AU lightly inspired by the book People We Meet on Vacation and also every slow burn friends to lovers rom-com to ever exist.

    AU: Penelope's out of options. Her novel’s not coming along like she‘d planned. She‘s working part time at a coffee shop and she‘s been looking for an apartment for ages but can't find anything. So when Colin, her best friend's brother and the one guy she's been in love with for years, offers her a room in his flat she accepts.

    The friends to lovers/forced proximity AU you didn't know you needed.

    P.S. Yes, the title refers to the Taylor Swift song but I promise this story will have a happy ending.
