Summary
"You don't need to be experienced," Frank said, his voice just as low. "Some people like inexperience."
"Really?" Mel flushed, her eyes darting between his as her cheeks grew noticeably redder. "I, um… I still wish I had more experience, anyhow. I've thought of just asking a friend some day if I could… practice, with them."
Frank titled his head to one side, his small smile widening into something gentle and goofy. "Oh really? Have anyone in mind?"
In which Frank hooks up with Mel a mere twenty-four hours after he and Abby agree to separate. "Just one time" has aftereffects that neither are prepared for… especially when Abby comes to Frank with life-altering news of her own.

Summary
they don’t use a condom the first time they have sex.
it’s not an intentional decision – she honestly didn’t even think of it. they were both so wrapped up in each other, in the moment, in the fact that this was finally, finally happening, that protection was the furthest thing from their minds.
plus, neither of them had slept with anyone for awhile; he revealed that it’d been nearly a year and a half since he’d had sex with abby, even though they’d only separated nine months ago. (one of the many signs our marriage was dead in the water, he’d told her, with a wry smile on his face.)
and mel? well, mel had never slept with anyone. technically.
(or, mel and frank deal with an unplanned pregnancy.)
written for day five of kingdon week 2026: oops, accidental pregnancy.

Summary
“It’s kinda stupid, but Abby always liked the clean shaved look,” he explains, “and we’ve been separated for months now and I just wanted to try No Shave November for the first time.”
“Well it looks good on you,” she says before she can stop herself.
“Does it?” he says, brightening considerably. “Abby always hated it—made me shave it off immediately.”
“I think it’s nice,” she remarks, eyes roving over his face. She’s not sure what about it is so enticing, but there’s just something about Frank’s square jaw, his chin dimple, his dark brows, even his bright blue eyes, that stand out more with the addition of the coarse hair along his jawline, around his mouth.
She wonders what it feels like.
Or, Mel shows up to work with a ponytail, and Frank shows up to work with stubble and both of them lose their damn minds over it :)

Summary
he’s careful with mel in a way that he never was with abby. not because he thinks she’s too delicate, or made of glass, or unable to handle herself. he just…he can’t fuck this up. she’s the most important thing that’s ever happened to him, alongside tanner and penny. he can’t fuck any of this up.
still, he can't protect her from this.
(or, mel and frank struggle with infertility issues.)

Summary
“Well, Aunt Irene asked if you were bringing any one.”
“... And you told her no. Because I’m not bringing anyone. Right?”
“I did not do that.” Becca said, looking sideways, avoiding Mel’s eye.
Mel blanched, swallowing hard, eyelids stuttering. But she had to keep her cool. She could not yell. She could not freak out.
“I told Aunt Irene that you were bringing your boyfriend.”
“Becca,” She said, as calmly as she could, “I don’t have a boyfriend. You know that. I’ve never had a boyfriend.” The last line, in a whisper.
“Well, I told her that Dr. Langdon was your boyfriend.”
Mel brings Dr. Langdon as her plus-one to her cousin Claire's wedding. Dr. Langdon is all too willing to pretend to be her boyfriend. Maybe a little too willing? To follow: a dog bite, spanking-related misunderstandings, erotic steak eating, and of course: only-one-bed!
