First grow : Cayenne Pepper, need advice

Hello there,
 
 
I grow a tiny cayenne pepper plant.
 
I've just came back from 15 days holidays (Ozora festival :dance:) , and my pepper goes from green to black with some red points.
 
I'd like to know if it's a classic behavior or if my fruit is rotting.
 
I've used blumat to water the pot when I couldn't do it myself, soil is very wet I think plant has been overwatered, and soil seems very dense.
Sheets are dropping down cause of overwatering I guess.
 
To prevent issue with water overflow when I was away, I've moved the pot in my bathroom, no direct sun but a lot of heat and humidity there.
Usually, plant is behind kitchen window, not a lot of humidity but lot of sun because of south orientation.
 
This my first pepper plant, a lot of flowers have dropped down before the first (and only) fruit has appeared.
It's a huge fruit, but I'm hoping for other ones.
 
 
Thanks for your advice :)

Cayenne are very easy to grow (at least outside), so don't worry too much.  They are pretty resilient.  Don't like too much water.  I would only water when leaves are drooping.
 
The bigger the pot, the more the chiles, though.  Looks like you could use another size up.
