Summary
Mel King was a creature of habit.
There was a specific sort of choreography to her life beyond the chaos of the Emergency Department. A carefully controlled routine, a color-coded calendar, a rigid set of rituals that kept her grounded enough to keep showing up day after day, to keep on doing the work that was required of her to save lives.
Everything was going fine for Mel. Her personal life was predictable, unexciting, and perfectly fulfilling, thank you very much.
Enter Frank Langdon, agent of chaos.

Summary
Taking a bite of her hashbrowns as Trinity thinks, she admits, “I saw you and Langdon at the diner the other day.”
Mel doesn’t deny anything and says, “So that's how Garcia knew. She told Frank that you accused him of cheating on his wife. He denied it, of course. I don’t like that we have to lie to people.” She's not meeting Trinity's eyes, staring down at a water ring carved into the table, tracing it with her fingers.
What did Trinity even want out of this conversation? They were past the point of Trinity changing Mel's mind about Langdon, and she didn’t want to make Mel feel any more guilty than she already felt. Mel didn’t need someone to protect her. She just needed a friend.
“Do you want to talk about it?”Or Trinity learns to play nice with others. Well, at least she tries to.

Summary
He doesn’t know why he does it, says, “Let me,” and gestures for her to turn around. He thinks she’ll wave him off, tell him not to worry, that she can do it herself.
But she doesn’t.
She turns around so her back is to him, and he takes a step closer, reaching up to grab onto her braid, slowly sliding the hair tie off.
He puts it on his wrist, next to the one he already has on, and the plait almost falls apart on its own, but he can’t help putting his hands in her hair, undoing the braid and running his fingers through the strands gently.
“There you go,” he says quietly once her hair is loose around her shoulders.
She sighs and leans into him, her back against his chest, and tilts her head to rest on his shoulder.

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
Mel King was an accomplished liar. Well, accomplished at harmless white lies that were usually for the benefit of another person and to her own detriment. No, Dana, it doesn’t bother me that that patient called me frigid. No, Becca, I don’t mind if we watch Elf again. No, Dr Robby, I can totally stay late after my shift is over because the Pitt is slammed as usual. If it didn’t harm anyone except herself, she lied effortlessly and constantly.
Except him. She couldn’t lie to him.

Summary
“I’m jealous.” It escapes before she can let herself back out, “That my sister has a sex life, and I don’t.”
She doesn’t know why she’s admitting that to him. She honestly doesn’t. It’s embarrassing.
“Right there with you.” His voice is low, “How long–?”
She chews at the bottom of her lip, doing the mental math, “Three years…You?”
“Thirteen months.”
Warmth pools in between her legs, and she clutches his hand like it’s a lifeline.
It’s barely a whisper, she’s so afraid to say it,
“Close the trunk.”
---
“Wait, holy shit, King–” The wand stills inside of her as Trinity freezes the frame.
“What?” She asks, “God, it didn’t nick something, did it? I’m not about to bleed to death?”
“No, but you might pass out.” Trinity answers, “Maybe?”
“What is it?” She tries to sit up, but Trinity’s already turning the ultrasound monitor around to show her.
Her heart stills as she takes in the tiny flickering heartbeat on the screen in front of her, “Oh–”

Summary
Frank must have screamed. Maybe he cried out for help. He couldn’t be sure, as his whole world had tunneled down to the preternaturally still body of the woman he loved, splayed out in front of him on the cold trauma room floor. Her golden blonde hair was matted with drying blood, and on instinct he smoothed some of the strands from her forehead. Mel always hated when her hair was in her eyes, but they were closed now. It took everything in him to resist the urge to gather her broken body to his chest and hold her close as though he could infuse his life into hers. Instead, he lifted a shaky hand to the side of her neck to feel for a pulse. He was deeply certain that if he didn’t find one, his own heart would cease to beat as well.
or
A slow day at work turns into a nightmare when Mel is assaulted by a patient. Based on the episode of Grey's Anatomy by the same name.

Summary
Mel had insisted that her Uncle Jack wouldn't give her any special treatment if she switched her residency to The Pitt.
They do so well at keeping their relationship from being seen as nepotistic that they accidentally send a completely different message to their coworkers. Really, is it their fault that everyone is always betting on which coworkers are sleeping together?
