Summary
For her twenty-eighth Valentine’s Day, Melissa King goes out to dinner with her boyfriend.
They have been officially together for fifteen days. Mel has a crusty, two-week-old glued scar in the middle of her head from a run in with a patient. Her twin sister is ghosting her. She is the happiest she has ever been.
The only problem she really has in her life right now, is that her boyfriend won’t have sex with her.
(Technically this follows directly on from another work, but holds up as a standalone!)

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.
