Summary
“Mel.” Frank sounds tense and serious. She doesn’t like when he’s tense and serious, especially not when she thinks that it might be because of her - why else would he not reply to her picture? “What are we doing?”
“We’re - we’re trading pictures, Frank, like we said we would -”
“Yeah, I know, but… are you seriously gonna tell me that you’re not sending ones where you look hot on purpose?”
The air leaves her lungs in a large, violent breath. She feels like she’s been caught with her hand in the cookie jar. Or like she’s been caught leaving secret, encoded messages on a post-it note inside the lid of the cookie jar without telling anyone the post-it note or even the cookie jar itself is there. She wanted to take cute pictures to send to him this week in the hopes that he would like them, but she didn’t know that he noticed how hard she was working for it, didn’t realize that he realized - oh, God, is her new push-up bra that obvious?
“I’m not - I didn’t - um -”
“Are you alone right now?”
“Yeah, I’m alone.”
Frank sighs on the other end of the line, and she waits patiently for it all to come crashing down.
“What are you wearing?”

Summary
All of Mel's boyfriends.
Mel would never presume that Frank Langdon is boyfriend material.
Those were the words Princess had used once—though in a very different tone, after she’d stared a little too long at the new radiologist who’d come down for a consult.
“What about me?” Frank had said, winking at her like a dog begging for a treat.
It had made Mel feel inexplicably sad.
Set some time after season two.

Summary
“I guess what I’m trying to say is…” he starts, a small, almost tentative smile pulling at his mouth. “I could use a friend, Dr. King.”
Mel blinks.“Oh. I—well, um.”
Every coherent thought she had a second ago disappears. Completely. Clean slate.
“I think I heard Dr. Whitaker say he wanted to spend less time at home with Santos, so maybe he’d—”
“Mel.”
He’s laughing now.
Not at her.
But enough that she feels the familiar prickle of having missed something.
She straightens slightly, already bracing to correct whatever she got wrong.
“I’d like to be your friend.”
or: the one where two lonely doctors find solace in one another
