Summary
“I think I need some air,” he sheepishly chuckled, wiping the blood from his arm onto his shirt, gesturing to the mess on the floor like it was an insignificant accident, the occupational hazard of being at a bar, not a clear indication that something had gone horribly wrong. “Care to join me?”
“Uhm,” Mel said, “sure.”

He doesn’t see her later. In fact, he avoids her almost completely for the rest of the week, volunteering for a shift in triage purgatory and trading for an overnight that leaves him groggy and mean. He tells himself it’s for the best–the whole situation was getting weird, clearly, and Frank has been letting it happen because he’s starved for positive attention and there’s literally nothing else going on in his life, but enough is enough. They’re coworkers; he’s her supervisor, technically. This is his entire fucking career.
Gritty yet very tender
