    Summary

    Mel told herself that the next time Becca slept over at the centre, she would talk to Frank about having sex. She would approach it tactfully, maturely, and articulately, and even if they didn’t do it that night, they could at least make some sort of plan.

    “Do you want to have sex?” she blurted out instead.

    Frank looked at her, surprised, and then squinted a little. “Is that a trick question?” he asked.

    “Uh... no?” She reached for the remote to pause Hamilton, right in the middle of Say No to This. “I want to know. If you want to have sex.”

    “Yeah,” he answered slowly. “I wanna have sex.”

    “Okay.” She swallowed, rubbing her palms against the legs of her jeans. “Do you have, uh, a condom?”

    Summary

    “Mel, I really think it’ll help you if you have more experience.”

    “What experience?” she asked. He was crawling towards her now, and she had no idea she was lying back down until he was hovering over her, his knees on either side of her hips, his hands braced on the floor beside her head. “Frank, what experience?”

    “Life experience,” he answered. He bent down to kiss her, again, and he kissed her until her toes curled.

    “Frank,” she repeated when they parted for breath. She wasn’t sure she’d said his name this many times in one night before. No, not even one night - about ten minutes. God. Was that right? Was it only ten minutes ago she had been settling down for bed, and now her lifelong best friend was pressing kisses to her cheeks and mouth and nose and forehead? Was it only ten minutes ago that she had never been kissed before ever, in her life, and now his tongue had been in her mouth? “Frank, what are you -” 

    “Mel,” he said. Very seriously, more seriously than she’d ever heard him. “Can we have sex?”

    She stared at him, her heart thundering in her ears, and then nodded. “Okay. Yes. Yes, please.”

    Summary

    There is a bizarre comfort in his company. Sometimes they talk, most times they do not. One time, she caves and breaks the unspoken rule between them about not asking complicated questions.

    She says, “you stood there and watched. Why?”

    His answer is, “because I’m a coward.” He pauses before he says, “I’m a coward, and I’ve hated myself every day for letting you suffer alone when I could have intervened. I made a promise to never let it happen again.”

    Hermione opened her eyes and glanced over at him. His response was approximately thirty-three more words than she’d expected. “So here you are,” she says.

    He smirked, and it was more like the ones she remembered from their school years. “So here I am.”

    or

    Hermione Granger never makes it out of Malfoy Manor.

    Summary

    Emma is a hundred percent certain that Dr. Langdon and Dr. King are married.

    Well, maybe ninety-nine percent.

    No one has explicitly confirmed or denied it, but while Emma might be naive, blind she is not.
