Summary
Some nights were, naturally, worse than others.
Nights where Frank laid in bed for so long, staring at the ceiling, that it made his heart start to race with anxiety and his back ache and ache and ache no matter how he positioned himself. Nights where his thoughts spiraled out into worst-case-scenarios that seemed so vivid and inevitable that he would have to get up and go to the bathroom, just to turn the light on and look at himself in the mirror to remember what was actually real.
Those were the nights when he wanted the pills again the most: alone in his guest bedroom, trying to wring sleep out of his body like the last few drops of water out of a dirty dishcloth.
He tried not to call Mel on nights like that. He did not always succeed.

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.

Summary
Dr. Melissa King and Dr. Frank Langdon are both chronically lonely and desperately need to find a life outside of their overwhelmingly consuming jobs as Emergency Doctors, so when the opportunity to attend their local Renaissance Faire free of charge arises, they jump at the chance, and after spending an entire day together, as always, they rely on each other for comfort.
AKA Mel and Frank go to the Renaissance Faire, then go freak4freak after.

Summary
Mel finds someone else.
Someone she can actually have.
She pushes Frank down as far as she can.
But when she closes her eyes, he's always there.Series
