Summary
“I told you not to come,” a woman hissed in a stage whisper that somehow sounded even louder than yelling. “Our coworkers are here, Frank, they’re going to see you—”
Jack paused mid-chart.
Frank?
A second voice answered, defensive and equally hushed. “What, I’m supposed to just sit on your couch twiddling my thumbs while you’re in here getting my wedding ri—”
Okay. Jack closed his eyes briefly. Nope. Absolutely not.
Or, the shift from hell where Jack finds out Frank and Mel are totally fucking, and in the most unhinged way possible.

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
It was probably a good thing that no one assumed that Mel and Frank could possibly be dating. They had agreed to keep it a secret, after all.
But, come on. Not one rumor? Really?
It was starting to piss Frank off.
