    Summary

    If Frank had ever thought about it before, which he hadn't, he’d probably conclude he likes physical touch about as much as the average person does.

    It’s not like he minds it when people touch him, especially since he’s kind of oblivious about personal space. He often ends up brushing up against people or dropping a hand to a shoulder or bumping into someone in the Pitt, and he doesn’t tend to think twice about it beyond a quick apology when needed.

    (And maybe he does some of that on purpose, when it comes to one coworker in particular, but again, this isn’t something Frank has ever thought about, so he definitely doesn’t dwell on what that means.)

    Summary

    he's put in place three rules for himself since returning to the emergency department: be transparent when handling drugs, spend as much time with mel as possible, and stay out of trinity santos' business.

    he doesn't mean to break rule three. he really doesn't.

    (or, mel and santos try to be friends. it doesn't go as well as they had hoped.)

    It all started with a hair tie…

    Summary

    If Mel King was anything, she was prepared. Especially working somewhere as unpredictable as The Pit, she needed to be ready in case of any hygiene-related emergency that could occur. She didn’t have enough fingers to count the number of times she had gotten a patient’s bodily fluids on her. It only made sense for her to carry an oversized cosmetic bag filled with essentials at all times.
    As her hand finally made contact with the pouch, she grabbed it quickly and made her way to the bathroom. She placed the bag on the counter and unzipped it, watching the sides bag out due to how full it was. She rummaged through the bag in search of her toothbrush and toothpaste, when in her haste she accidentally grabbed a tampon. She stared at it for a moment, a look of deep thought coming over her face.
    Oh. Oh.
    ___

    Or: Mel finds out she's pregnant and confides in Dana. This is how everyone finds out.

    Summary

    Mel understood how conception occurred. She understood how to prevent it, though the knowledge had never been personally relevant before. She knew it was unwise to have unprotected sex with someone if you didn’t know both partners were negative for STIs and if you weren’t willing to risk pregnancy.

    But nothing had been wise about fucking Dr. Langdon in the bathroom of the ED.

    It was only a few weeks later when Mel realized her period was six days late. It didn’t take a genius or special medical training to make a likely diagnosis.
