Summary
Frank has never been a good sleeper. It's a blessing and a curse in turn, but he's made peace with needing less sleep than anyone he's ever met.
And then he meets Mel King, and she changes that.
(She changes everything.)
OR — Over a series of late night talks, texts, FaceTimes, and maybe dates, Langdon and Mel fall in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once.

Summary
Langdon starts thinking of Mel like the sun, not only because she’s bright, but because everything else feels colder without her. The hospital is still the hospital. Loud and relentless, but when she’s there, the night becomes something he can get through. Somewhere along the way, she turns into the only person he actually wants to see.
OR Langdon comes back after his ten month hiatus and immediately gets put on night shift with Mel because of a shortage AND Mel gets boba.

Summary
It took Frank Langdon’s concussion for Mel King to consider that her crush may not be entirely one sided. But it will take more than that for Langdon to be convinced that he deserves her.
Ordered to be on light duty the weeks following his injury during a flag football game, the two of them grow closer in ways neither of them fully expected, but they both desperately need.

Summary
“Good, good. My ancestors would hate me for saying this, but when I was a whiskey drinker, I strongly preferred Tennessee whiskey. I like the sweet notes better.” He tells her.
“I never understood tasting notes in alcohol. If you like sweet drinks there are much better options than whiskey. I like a good Diet Coke or Dr Pepper on a night out.” That’s his girl, not only drug intolerant, but not much of a drinker either. Also not technically his girl, but let him have this.
Or: Mel calls Frank to pick her up after a night out and she loses her house keys, so he offers her his bed for the weekend.

Summary
“—and I know that there’s Becca and Tanner and Millie to consider, but I was wondering if you maybe wanted to move in? Together? With me?”
Mel blinks. He certainly doesn’t look like he’s having a stroke.
“Frank, why would we move in together?”
“I thought it might be nice,” he shrugs here, acting nonchalant even though Mel can see the tension in his jaw. “To take that next step in our relationship.”
“Frank, what are you talking about? We’re not in a relationship?”
At this, Frank’s frown deepens before widening into a frustrated half smile. “Uh, yes we are? We’ve been dating for nine months?”
What.
Or, Frank thinks Mel doesn’t do physical touch.
Or, Mel doesn’t realize they’ve been dating for nine months.- Language:
