Summary
For her twenty-eighth Valentine’s Day, Melissa King goes out to dinner with her boyfriend.
They have been officially together for fifteen days. Mel has a crusty, two-week-old glued scar in the middle of her head from a run in with a patient. Her twin sister is ghosting her. She is the happiest she has ever been.
The only problem she really has in her life right now, is that her boyfriend won’t have sex with her.
(Technically this follows directly on from another work, but holds up as a standalone!)

Summary
“Is this the Frank discount?” She asked, hoping her joke came off witty. He shook his head, already free pouring a clear liquor into his shaker, picking up another bottle with his free hand.
“Frank discount is for regulars and people who tip well.” He replied. “This is something else.” He knocked the top of the shaker, before lifting it above his head, giving it a hard shake. He grabbed a glass from somewhere beneath him, pouring the drink before sliding it in front of her.
“What’s something else?” She asked. He looked up at her, his eyes full of a calm confidence that suddenly made her feel warm.
“The Pretty Mel discount, obviously.” He looked completely unashamed as he nodded towards her drink, telling her to taste it.

Summary
Frank huffed, setting the mug down. “How many times are we going to have to go over this, Mel? I like listening to you talk. I’m not just being nice. We’re friends.”
“It’s important to ask,” she said, still watching him carefully. “Because sometimes people say they want to know something but they don’t actually mean that they do. They’re just being polite. And it’s hard for me to tell that, always.”
“I’ll tell you what,” he suggested. “Let’s make this easy. With me, you never have to ask. Consider it my… blanket approval, I guess.”
He pointed to himself. “I, Frank Langdon, am interested in what you have to say.”

Summary
The last thing Langdon was expecting the next morning after they woke up and made breakfast together was for Mel to put down her fork and say, “I think you should fuck me while I’m sleeping.”
Langdon choked, having just taken a sip of water. Mel looked at him in concern but he put his hand up, waving her off that he was fine. After a little bit when he was good he cleared his throat. “I’m sorry, what?”
“You should fuck me while I’m sleeping,” Mel repeated, nudging her glasses up her nose.

Summary
Frank was here. At a speed dating event. Which meant that he’d spent his evening sitting across from a dozen other women, looking for the same thing she was - a relationship.
The realization made her stomach sink. For months now, she’d been telling herself there was a reason Frank hadn’t made a move. Maybe he wasn’t ready after the divorce. Maybe he wasn’t even interested in dating at all - maybe he was too busy with work and the kids to even think about it. But he was here, which meant none of those things were true.
Frank wanted a relationship - just not with her.

Summary
For a moment that seemed to draw on for an hour, nobody said anything, the awkward shock of whatever the hell had just occurred settling between them all. Garcia turned toward Frank slowly.
“What the fuck is up with ER Barbie today?” she asked. “Did Poison Ivy over there key her car or something?”
Santos had to cover her mouth to stifle the laugh that burst out. She would think this was hilarious. He bit his tongue so he didn’t say anything he’d regret - they were just beginning to tolerate each other.
Frank stared out the closed doors. “I have no idea.”
or: the one where an overconfident intern openly flirts with Frank, and unleashes a side of Mel nobody has seen before.

Summary
The paramedic opens the back door, jumping down into the snow with a soft crunch. She looks over at them, brows furrowing.
"Figured there'd be more of you," she said, and Mel frowns. "Didn't they tell you over the radio? Pretty sure this guy works here."
The world goes quiet in Mel's ears as the two paramedics get the stretcher down to the ground, and the patient's face comes into view- as Frank's face comes into view, bloodied and bruised where it was secured in a neck brace. She freezes, unable to move; watches in slow motion as Mohan leans over Frank, assessing his injuries, while Dana takes report from the paramedics.

He grinned again, immediately turning and dragging her the rest of the way through the trees into the clearing where the thirty-foot-tall rock wall stood ominously. A pit settled into her stomach.
“Never mind,” she said, turning back towards the trees.
“No!” Langdon yelled, grabbing her around the waist so that her back was pressed to his front and pulling her back awkwardly with him. “No takesies backsies!”

“Okay, Mel, twist my arm! I’ll go with you to your aunt’s wedding.”
“What?! That’s not at all what I was—” She cut herself off when he looked at her with a very distinct Frank Langdon Sparkle in his eyes. “Oh, you’re joking. Ha ha, very funny.”
“Well, half-joking, yeah.” He started backing into a parking spot, his body twisted towards hers so he could see behind them. “I will go to the wedding with you, though.”

For the first time since she’d met her on their first day in the Pitt, Mel thinks she sees Santos blush. “Uh, nope,” she says quickly. “Mel! Truth ‘r dare?”
“Truth,” Mel says, as usual.
Santos looks like she was ready for this and immediately asks, too clearly considering how drunk she was, “Who here do you have a crush on?”

When they had made the appointment, it was specifically on his day off so that he and Abby could both be there, but he wouldn’t be surprised if she had planned this just to get back at him for the times he’d flaked on her for work.
Now that he’s met Ms. King, though, he was very thankful there was some five alarm emergency at the firm that had pulled her away.
