    Summary

    Something clattered in the bathroom. Everything inside of Mel went very, very still.
    Santos looked at the shut door. She processed.
    “Mel King, you dirty dog.” A slow grin stretched over her face. “Did you hook up with someone last night?”

    (The gang goes to a medical conference.)

    Summary

    This was never how she pictured this going.

    She thought she’d be married, or at least in a long term relationship.

    Mel King never imagined finding out she was pregnant in the hospital bathroom after hooking up with a coworker two months ago.

     

    Or, whoopsie baby.

    Summary

    They were friends.

    And yeah, maybe the ring on his finger sort of burned when he looked at her sometimes, even though it was just for show, now.

    It was just easier to let her keep thinking he was still married to Abby. Safer.

    It raised less eyebrows about the nature of their friendship when the ring stayed on while he was at work, the weight on his finger reminding him not to say or do anything stupid.

    It also made it a little less creepy when the pet names started slipping out.

    Summary

    Mel King was a creature of habit.

    There was a specific sort of choreography to her life beyond the chaos of the Emergency Department. A carefully controlled routine, a color-coded calendar, a rigid set of rituals that kept her grounded enough to keep showing up day after day, to keep on doing the work that was required of her to save lives.

    Everything was going fine for Mel. Her personal life was predictable, unexciting, and perfectly fulfilling, thank you very much.

    Enter Frank Langdon, agent of chaos.
