Summary
He licked his lips and his throat bobbed. She exhaled sharply when his eyes went back to hers, his gaze heavily clouded with desire she also felt for him.
“You’re drunk, Mel.” He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. “You don’t know what you’re doing.”
She shook her head. “I didn’t drink a single drop of alcohol tonight. I know what I’m doing, Frank.”
Mel was drunk and Frank took care of her. Somewhere along the way they found it hard to ignore that they are meant to be more than friends.
Set after Trinity and Mel went to the karaoke bar.

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
It starts like this:
Frank gets caught. He does not voluntarily give up information about the stolen drugs – he gets caught.
Big difference.

Summary
“I love used books,” she proffers, eager to be a normal person. “I love when books have a story.”
“Well, I’d say if a book doesn’t have a story, it’s a pretty sad excuse for a book.”
Mel can’t help herself—she snorts. “I didn’t realize you owned the shop,” Mel says quickly, embarrassed. “That must be nice—”
“Yeah, it is,” Frank answers distractedly. “I’m sorry, I’m pretty sure I just saw two time Emmy award winning actress Mel King snort at a joke I made.”
So he really did know her, then, wow.
“Well I’m not sure anyone will believe you,” she jokes lightly.
“Yeah,” Frank breathes, his eyes roving over her face in a stunned sort of awe. “I don’t think anyone will.”
Or, the Kingdon Notting Hill AU :)

Summary
One year after his return to the PTMC, if you asked Frank Langdon what his plans were going to be for a week in July, he probably would not have predicted he'd be spending it vacationing with his colleagues at a campground somewhere in the Poconos. But it's not just the weather that's heating up and making him sweat... his relationship with Mel King is on the verge of becoming something else entirely.

Summary
sometimes – more often than he’d like to admit, actually – he just wants to tell her to fucking leave already, to take tanner and penny and run. what the fuck are you doing, abby? why are you here?
he feels like he’s drowning. he feels like he’s in a house that’s on fire, inhaling smoke that burns and clogs his lungs until he can’t catch his breath.
(or, abby stays. frank isn't sure that's a good thing.)
