    Summary

    It was probably a good thing that no one assumed that Mel and Frank could possibly be dating. They had agreed to keep it a secret, after all.

    But, come on. Not one rumor? Really?

    It was starting to piss Frank off.

    Summary

    Things have been good, lately.

    Trinity has been good. She likes going to work—likes the thrill of particularly difficult cases, likes the easy back-and-forth she’s starting to build with her coworkers, even likes arguing with Langdon. She likes her little apartment and she likes that she gets to share it with Dennis. (It’s way cleaner, now, and she eats real food half the time. And she has something to do in the evenings other than think about everything she’s lost).

    Things have been good.

    She should’ve fucking known what would happen if she let her guard down.

    ~~~

    Trinity is cornered on her way home from work. She gets out of it with a stab wound and a whole new wave of old trauma. (And of course, her least favorite coworker is the only one there to talk her down.)

    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

    “We think this may be a..”, Princess lowered her voice even further, “-huh..my boyfriend who lives in Canada situation.”

    “I don’t follow,” Samira said dubiously.

    “no one has seen the guy around-,

    “-says they don’t have any pictures together because he is private,” Princess continues, looking at her meaningfully.

    “Oh. Oh my God, you think she is making it up?” Her voice goes way over this conversation's acceptable volume.

    Cassie winces.

    “I don’t think she meant to do it”, she explains.

    “Chad came up again, so we started talking about relationships and Mel got roped into it. I think she wanted to get us off her back but when Santos doubled down, I guess she felt like she had to save face..?”

    or

    Mel has a boyfriend. A boyfriend who is 6’2, cooks her salmon dinners and bought her a white gold sweetheart necklace. Mel’s boyfriend loves her sister, runs marathons and drives an Audi.

    Too bad no one at PTMC has ever heard his name or seen pictures nor spotted them together anywhere in Pittsburgh proper.

    Oh, by the way, he is a doctor too.

    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.
    Or, Mel doesn’t realize they’ve been dating for nine months.
