Summary
Trinity smirked. “Personally I think you can do better, Mel.”
“Because he’s married?”
“Because he sucks.”
Or, five times that Mel was honest with other people and one time someone was honest with her.

Summary
“You should get back home to your wife,” she says carefully, slowly, like it’s a reprimand she doesn’t trust him to register as one unless she draws attention to it.
He pretends he didn’t hear her.
It’s only later, at the bus stop, that a firm sense of certainty washes over Frank for the first time in a very long time. He’d gotten it all wrong. Mel clearly has someone else to preoccupy herself with. It was embarrassing, really, to assume she would want a fuck up like him. At that moment, like the punctuation to some cosmic joke, the wedding ring he’s been fingering absentmindedly slips off his finger and skitters around in a circle between his feet. He crouches down to pick it back up as the last bus home flies past. He half wishes it had hit him; it probably would have hurt less than the realisation that he has feelings for Mel King, and she doesn’t feel the same way.
OR
Frank Langdon is certain that Mel King has a crush on him, until he's not. He then spends the Winter trying and failing to avoid her, setting and breaking rules of engagement, and trying to keep it all a secret from his wife.

Summary
Time travelers who plan to kill Superman never account for Martha Kent in their plans. She may not be the World's Finest, but she's a mother with a shotgun, and all told that might be scarier.

Summary
There are good baristas. There are bad baristas. And then there's Enjolras.
To be fair, he's only working in the world's worst coffee shop because nobody but Mr. Valjean would ever give a job to a futureless hooligan with an ever-growing arrest record. The highlight of his painfully boring workday is this one asshole who always stumbles in and orders impossibly complicated coffee thirty minutes before closing. Enjolras really wishes he didn't want to rip Grantaire's clothes off whenever they start talking political theory, or when Grantaire treats him like the law student he thinks Enjolras is instead of like a man who spends most of his free time writing angry letters and punching people.
[[now completed by a rambling account of what i would've written next, all the way to the end!!!]]

Summary
“Princess,” the nickname falls easily off his tongue, is swept along with the wind as she makes her way toward him. Unfazed, she rolls her eyes and grabs the handle on the passenger side door. Of course, it’s locked.
His lips curl into a smirk. “Going somewhere?”
“If you really want me,” she says, cutting to the chase. “You drive this motherfucker to the Tournesols.”
“I’m supposed to know what that means?”
Now, it’s her turn to smirk. “But you do know what it means, Bellamy.”
***
(or: Bellamy and Clarke have sex through the summer. It wasn't supposed to get complicated.)
