Summary
Some nights were, naturally, worse than others.
Nights where Frank laid in bed for so long, staring at the ceiling, that it made his heart start to race with anxiety and his back ache and ache and ache no matter how he positioned himself. Nights where his thoughts spiraled out into worst-case-scenarios that seemed so vivid and inevitable that he would have to get up and go to the bathroom, just to turn the light on and look at himself in the mirror to remember what was actually real.
Those were the nights when he wanted the pills again the most: alone in his guest bedroom, trying to wring sleep out of his body like the last few drops of water out of a dirty dishcloth.
He tried not to call Mel on nights like that. He did not always succeed.

Summary
“I swear I’ve mentioned Alex before,” Mel murmurs, frowning down at her phone, still not clocking how she’s short-circuited Frank’s brain. It's a blue screen of death up there. Hi, you’ve reached Dr. Frank Langdon. I’m not available to talk right now, but leave a message, and I might get back to you. Beeeeeep.
The picture continues to shine cheerily up at them, silently mocking Frank. He forces himself to look away and swallows with difficulty. “I think I'd remember if you'd told me about your ‘best friend’ who you ‘used to be in love with.’”

Summary
Actually, Mel's excited about a lot of things going into the new school year. She’s excited to co-teach with Dr. Mohan and Mr. Langdon. She’s excited to continue supporting the kids on her caseload from the previous year, and she knows writing their IEPs will go so much better now that she knows them and their families a little. She’s excited that her Physics class will be entirely made up of students she taught in Chemistry the previous year; they were a great group.
There are things to worry about, too. Co-teaching with two new people again. The daily possibility that she’s going to do something overwhelmingly embarrassing in front of Langdon. Still not knowing where she should go during her prep periods. That she’s going to be just as alone as she’s always been at work, but with some added disappointment because she’s let her hopes get up, just a little.
There’s no way that she and Langdon can co-teach as well as she hopes. She’s sure her bubble will burst soon enough, that her crush will fade, and everything will settle back to baseline.
(It doesn't.)

a little sugar in my bowl, a little sweetness down in my soul by arcticmonks

Summary
As she’s working with the next few patients (broken leg, UTI, baby with a fever), no one else says anything, though she does get a kind little smile from Jesse that says that he heard what happened but he doesn’t care. Too bad he’s gay. He’s kind and can actually hold a conversation, and that salt and pepper hair is —
“Dr. Mohan,” Abbot calls from somewhere behind her as she’s finishing up her last chart before she hands off to the night shift. “Come see me before you clock out.”

Summary
She pulled the straw of her boba up to her lips, the first sip tasted heavenly, enough to make her forget the nerves that bundled in her stomach.
“Mel… will you marry me?” He said softly, his eyes bright in her direction.
She spat her boba across the table at him. “What?” She screeched.Bookmarked by MermaidAngelFairy

Summary
"So are you a Survivor superfan?" He asks—be normal Frank, be normal—walking toward some rocks at the far end of the beach.
"Huge," Mel says with a wide smile. "What about you?"
"Me, not really," Frank admits. "I watched a few seasons here and there," —one season, if he's honest— "and I auditioned just for fun," —he hadn't even known that Theo had sent in that stupid video— "and now here I am."
"Here you are," Mel echoes and Frank finds himself a little lost in the melody of her voice. It's lower than maybe he would expect, but the flow of it is an easy rhythm, a pleasing melody.
Entrancing.
"Here we are." Finds it necessary to add on, and the smile that blooms on Mel's face tells him he's said the right thing.
Fuck.
Or, the Survivor AU.

Summary
It was true: Mel King stress baked. Over the last decade she has perfected this art, much like she perfected her job; with thoroughness and a little bit of obsession.
Mel would be the first to tell anyone that this was healthy. She wasnt out drowning her stress in the bottle, or hurting people for fun. But boy, was she perpetually running out of room in her pantry and getting sweet sores from too much sugar these days. So, it made most sense to spread the love to her coworkers.
Whether they knew it or not.
—-
Frank Langdon has a sweet tooth, especially when it comes to Melissa King. After a hasty encounter leads to an absence in the “anonymous” sweet treats, he strikes a deal with Mel: he provides her stress relief, and she provides him with all of the sugar his digestive system can handle.
It’s just an innocent deal between two friendly co-workers, what could go wrong?

He’d been everything to her. She’d been the girl he forgot the moment Abby’s dad died—the moment they’d had to move closer to Abby’s mother in LA.
She’d be, at best, a footnote in that book.

Summary
“Um.” Mel looked down. “I still don’t know what everyone’s talking about. Honestly. That’s just how he looks at me.”
Diana’s eyebrows shot up. “You’re saying he looks at you like that often?”
Mel rolled her head. “I mean, we work together a lot. Maybe I’m not seeing what other people are seeing because to me, that’s just… how he looks.” She glanced at Langdon, who was looking at her the same way he always did, and for some reason, it made the feather dance that time, and she had to look away.
----
When a Tiktok of an after hours save goes viral for their undeniable chemistry, Mel King and Frank Langdon are thrust into the spotlight and asked to do a publicity tour to help fundraise. Mel finds it increasingly difficult to keep her feelings for her happily married colleague under wraps in interviews, but Frank’s been keeping a secret that millions of people are about to learn before she does.- Language:

Summary
“I wish you could take a look at yourself right now. You look like Carrie, ready to burn an entire prom down,” Langdon adjusted her weight before resuming the climb. “Anyway, I can’t get home shirtless or covered in blood, so I’ll have to borrow something. Sorry.”
“And it won’t be weird if you show up in someone else’s clothes?”
“I doubt it. At my house, clothes go straight into the wash without anyone looking twice,” he said the last words with a lot of effort. “But if I show up half-naked or covered in blood, people will definitely ask what the hell happened.”
“By people, you mean your wife.”
“I guess.”
“Ooh…You’re in trouble.”
