Summary
“Melissa King.”
He heard Mel huff, pretending to be annoyed. “You know, if it was anyone else saying that, I would think I was in trouble.”
“Yeah, I know. Now are you gonna come to the park with us or not?”
Frank could almost picture the crease between Mel’s eyebrows, that cute little look she got when she was uncertain or confused. It would be nice if she joined them–after all, it was a beautiful day, and although he definitely had it under control wrangling the kids all week, he couldn’t deny that he wouldn’t mind a little company.
Maybe more specifically, in the form of a certain blonde doctor who always managed to brighten his day no matter how shitty things were. Who always managed to command his attention every time she entered a room.

Summary
Mel scoffed, pretending to be offended. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Frank laughed then, loud and joyful, before glancing back at Mel. The light turned green then, and Frank pressed down on the gas to follow the car in front of them through the intersection.
“Are you–?”
“Frank!” Mel gasped as she caught a glimpse of something careening towards them.
He shot a quick glance to his left, throwing an arm out in front of her, faster than she’d ever seen him move. “Shi-”
Then Mel heard a deafening crunch and a crashing sound, and everything went black.

Summary
He wondered what she liked to do in her free time, and that’s when Frank promptly stopped himself before falling into a rabbit hole.
He didn’t even know anything about her. He was supposed to be focusing on himself, not becoming fixated on the first pretty girl who caught his eye.
She probably had a boyfriend, anyway.
