    Summary

    Frank Langdon is worried about Mel. She has a lot on her shoulders and doesn't know how to ask for help. He decides that he can help her by giving her moments outside of work where she's just having fun, not taking care of anyone. Mel sees this as a bid for friendship and happily accepts.

    Eventually real friendship blossoms between them, then something more.

    __

    Langdon is separated from the very beginning, just wearing his wedding ring at first to avoid questions or pity at work. He is not immediately looking for love or to get over Abby; it sneaks up on him.

    Summary

    If Frank had ever thought about it before, which he hadn't, he’d probably conclude he likes physical touch about as much as the average person does.

    It’s not like he minds it when people touch him, especially since he’s kind of oblivious about personal space. He often ends up brushing up against people or dropping a hand to a shoulder or bumping into someone in the Pitt, and he doesn’t tend to think twice about it beyond a quick apology when needed.

    (And maybe he does some of that on purpose, when it comes to one coworker in particular, but again, this isn’t something Frank has ever thought about, so he definitely doesn’t dwell on what that means.)

    Summary

    “So listen,” Robby says, “I heard you’ve uh, well, that you’re living with Dr. King. Is there any truth to that statement?”

    Frank groans.

    “Yeah, yes, I’m living with her,” he says and Robby gets that crazy look in his eyes so Frank barrels on, “It’s not like that. Robby it’s not,” and Robby doesn’t look like he believes him one bit. “I’m living in her spare room and I pay her rent. We’re roommates. That’s not a crime.”

    or: frank gets out of rehab, gets divorced, and needs somewhere to live. enter mel.

    Summary

    Frank was here. At a speed dating event. Which meant that he’d spent his evening sitting across from a dozen other women, looking for the same thing she was - a relationship.

    The realization made her stomach sink. For months now, she’d been telling herself there was a reason Frank hadn’t made a move. Maybe he wasn’t ready after the divorce. Maybe he wasn’t even interested in dating at all - maybe he was too busy with work and the kids to even think about it. But he was here, which meant none of those things were true.

    Frank wanted a relationship - just not with her.
