Fics like A Practical Romance

Penelope is quiet for a long while after he nodded his head and confirmed he was inquiring about whether or not she has changed her mind about having a baby with him. "I…" she starts before swallowing once. "Well, I suppose as the years have gone on… I have imagined it a time or two, yes." Colin knows she is telling the truth, and for the first time in a long time, he is also able to read her and surmise there is more still she is holding back. "Is that something you wish for?" he asks cautiously. "A babe? One of your own?" Pen's big, pale blue eyes blink at him twice slowly before she starts nibbling on her lip in a decidedly nervous gesture. "That is… We did not… We married for other purposes. I do not expect—" "I am not asking what you expect," he interrupts, keeping his tone gentle, though, so as not to scare her out of this spell of vulnerability he's found her in tonight. "I am asking simply what you desire for yourself. Do you want a baby, Pen?" "Yes." -- Or, regency era Penelope and Colin have been in marriage of convenience for five years and decide to have a child together—platonically of course.
