Summary
“Alright,” Frank said, not yelling. Just loud enough to cut through their screams of protest, “who wants to watch Dr. Mel?”
The fits stopped as soon as the familiar name left Frank’s mouth. Tanner and Penny looked up at him with smiles on their faces as they hopped off the floor, their voices overlapping with Me’s and I do’s.
“Wow, that was way too easy,” he sighed, “what’s so special about this ‘Dr. Mel’? You have a doctor standing right in front of you, ya know.”
{or}
Mel makes educational YouTube videos for kids. Frank is a single dad to two wild children.
Fate brings them together in the children's section of a library in Pittsburgh.- Language:

Summary
A new high chair at the kitchen table, a new carseat crammed in the back of the car, binkies thrown everywhere. Sleepless nights, milk stained shirts, diaper blowouts.
He sees it all, laid out in front of him like a blueprint.

Summary
“Hmm…” She clacked the keyboard quickly, “Langdon, you say?”
He nodded once more, his eyes left the clerks and looked over at Mel. The crinkles that usually came from smiling were prominent just from exhaustion. He was still ridiculously handsome and it really wasn’t fair. She sipped from her water bottle in her hand.
“There it is!” She exclaimed brightly. “Honeymoon suite for Langdon.”
“What?” She choked on the water in her throat and coughed roughly. “Honeymoon suite?”
Frank’s eyes grew a mile wide, almost bulging from his skull. “No.. No.. There’s been some kind of mistake. I booked two queen beds.”

Summary
Her head is a little spinny and overwhelmed as she learns what it’s like to date Frank Langdon instead of just be weirdly co-dependent best friends with Frank Langdon. She starts a new section of her journal titled Observations, Hypotheses, and Research Questions (RQs) - FAL where she jots some of her newly acquired data down, just to get it out of her head, mostly little things like:
Observation: He sleeps much more deeply after an orgasm, but he also seems embarrassed about it.
Hypothesis: He is nervous about saying I love you.She starts a sub-tab for Pet Names and Compliments (PN&C) and the first RQ under PN&C is:
Why does he sometimes say “perfect” during sex?Bookmarked by MadTheLine

Summary
Actually, Mel's excited about a lot of things going into the new school year. She’s excited to co-teach with Dr. Mohan and Mr. Langdon. She’s excited to continue supporting the kids on her caseload from the previous year, and she knows writing their IEPs will go so much better now that she knows them and their families a little. She’s excited that her Physics class will be entirely made up of students she taught in Chemistry the previous year; they were a great group.
There are things to worry about, too. Co-teaching with two new people again. The daily possibility that she’s going to do something overwhelmingly embarrassing in front of Langdon. Still not knowing where she should go during her prep periods. That she’s going to be just as alone as she’s always been at work, but with some added disappointment because she’s let her hopes get up, just a little.
There’s no way that she and Langdon can co-teach as well as she hopes. She’s sure her bubble will burst soon enough, that her crush will fade, and everything will settle back to baseline.
(It doesn't.)

Summary
People weren’t always patient; it’s just a matter of fact she’s come to accept, as easily as the sky is blue. People weren’t always generous — with their time, much less with their attention — and Mel’s grown accustomed to the exasperated raise of eyebrows whenever her rambles cross the Too Much line.
She’s used to it.
Frank, though—
She hadn’t accounted for Frank.
Or, Mel’s an unstoppable force trying to get over her feelings, and Frank’s an immovable object who won’t let her.

Summary
To finally get to the point: while there hadn’t been a bet on them procreating (yet), there is the matter of the absolutely massive jackpot regarding them getting engaged, and in light of Trinity’s discovery during the shift that will forevermore be known within the Pitt community as “the Full Moon Friday Retrogeddon,” Trinity is like 96% sure Yolanda has won. Because Yolanda had put her money on “shotgun.”
The story of the first two years of a relationship, told primarily through the bets their coworkers make.

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.

Summary
Shane pulls back, carefully cradling Ilya’s face. “Maybe we shouldn’t.”
“You don’t want to?” Ilya’s eyes are bottomless; swimming with grief. He says it like he really means, You don’t want me?
“That isn’t what I mean,” Shane says gently, brushing his thumb over Ilya’s cheekbone. Ilya’s eyes flutter shut, as if being treated so tenderly causes him physical pain. Like he isn’t used to it. “You’re hurting. I don’t want you to regret it in the morning.”
Ilya’s eyes open. “I have never regretted a moment with you.”

Summary
Ilya is watching the sun rise over the lake at the cottage when Shane joins him and makes a little request.
“So, I was wondering…next time we fuck…would you like to, uh, skip the condom? Because I’ve been thinking about feeling you skin-to-skin inside me for a while now, and it’s been driving me—”
Shane did not get a chance to complete his sentence because Ilya had hauled him over and was giving him a kiss, fierce and biting and ravenous.
After many glorious moments of kissing, the sun warm on their cheeks, Ilya pulled back. Shane licked his lips and gave Ilya a darting glance before looking away. “Anyway, yeah, it’s been driving me insane,” he said, and cleared his throat.
“Well now that you said it, it makes me insane too,” Ilya replied. “Come.” He stood and hauled Shane up along with him. “Chop chop, Hollander. No time to waste.”- Language:

Summary
“I told you. Hollander and I, we are in love. He is my hockey player.” Ilya wiggled his eyebrows at the joke, but couldn’t keep himself from watching Scott Hunter.
“Sure, Roz. You and Hollander are in love, want to get married, spend the rest of your lives playing hockey together.” When Ilya didn’t immediately reply to that very accurate statement, Hunter continued: “If you two are in love, I’m straight. That’s how likely that is.” He had laughed and skated away, though Ilya really hadn’t understood what was supposed to be funny about that.
Standing alone on the ice, the crowd slowly filing out of the rink, Ilya was faced with a startling realization: telling people may be harder than he thought.

What if Shane gave Ilya permission to soft launch their relationship. Ilya is, of course, thrilled and immediately starts telling everyone around him. Problem is, no one believes him!Series

Jackie giggled, rubbing his back in a placating manner. “I’m afraid so, babe.”
