    Summary

    Mel had thought her way right into a corner with only one option.

    Feelings were messy, unpredictable things. She’d managed keeping them to herself this long, she could keep a handle on it with a one time perfunctory favor sex involved. She simply had to logic her way through it. Frank was her person. He would help her out because he was a good friend. The sex would be carefully carried out and rote. There would be no additional emotional attachment. Everything between them would go back to the way it always was and Mel could move on.

    There would be absolutely no deviation.

    aka Mel's 30th birthday crisis leads her to ask Frank to take her virginity

    Summary

    "Your final lap was near perfect, so I don't know why you're so stressed about it." 

     

    "Do I have the fastest lap?" Mel pushed.

     

    He cracked his neck, a dangerous place to draw her attention. "Well no, but it's not just you on this team, is it?" 

    or: Mel King is a perfectionist, Frank is way too chill about everything, and there's really no reason for an F1 Driver and their Race Engineer to treat each other like this.

    Summary

    A month into her residency, Whitaker says: “I can’t believe how fast they can just…go. It’s like the second I stop looking at their faces, they die.”

    Mel thinks I was looking at her feet but Mel says: “You know, some hospice nurses report that their patients die after their families leave the room. As if they don’t want their loved ones' last memory of them to be of them dying.”

    Mel thinks Thank you, Mom, for letting me be there. Mel thinks Thank you, Mom, for dying while Becca was out.

    The death of Mel and Becca King's mother, and Mel's journey to the Pitt - with some social work thrown in. Please read the tags before continuing.

    Summary

    This is not the kiss of two newlyweds from East City who met at university, who enjoy going to the market together on Sundays and cozy nights in front of the fire in their little apartment, who might start trying for a baby soon, who live the life Riza might have once dreamed of as a little girl. This is filled with the memories of burns and blood and promises that run as deep as hell. It’s every nightmare and code word and bullet-hole and scar. It tastes like an overwhelming ache; the impending lack of a future, the yearning for something impossible, the equivalent exchange they’ve subjected themselves to in order to make things right.

    -

    or, an undercover kiss.
