    Summary

    Frank was here. At a speed dating event. Which meant that he’d spent his evening sitting across from a dozen other women, looking for the same thing she was - a relationship.

    The realization made her stomach sink. For months now, she’d been telling herself there was a reason Frank hadn’t made a move. Maybe he wasn’t ready after the divorce. Maybe he wasn’t even interested in dating at all - maybe he was too busy with work and the kids to even think about it. But he was here, which meant none of those things were true.

    Frank wanted a relationship - just not with her.

    Summary

    Mel started receiving strange letters in the mail during her last year of undergrad.

    OR

    She inhaled jaggedly, heart pounding, nearly on the brink of spilling everything to him. This was the first time she’d ever considered telling someone the whole truth about her situation, other than the police and Becca’s center. She needed to get out of here before she could.

    “I need to leave this room before I continue being too honest. I will text you the details.” She separated their hands finally, her heart breaking to lose the physical contact with him, and slid the privacy curtain open, fleeing through the door before she could speak more. One quick glance back at him showed his face aglow with a giant grin, throwing a fist pump into the air and doing an excited half-spin.

    OR

    Mel's had an anonymous stalker for six years. Having seen no signs of danger since coming to Pittsburgh, she finally allows herself to act on her mutual feelings for her best friend, Frank Langdon. She should have known that she couldn't hide forever.

    Summary

    When he finds the courage to leave the comfort of her steam shrouded bathroom, he makes his way out to the living room.

    He stops in his tracks when he hears her, a fond smile etching onto his face.

    He’s careful to disguise his footsteps on the vinyl floor, not wanting her to stop. He was rapidly beginning to realize he could listen to her sing forever.

    She flits around the kitchen, alternating between humming and singing along to whatever music played in her ear, and all Frank can do is watch.

    “Oh!” She says with a jolt when she finally notices him, “Frank! How are you feeling? I made spaghetti…spaghetti’s okay, right?”

    “Yeah.” He nodded, “Yeah, spaghetti’s okay.”

    She shuffles out of the kitchen a few moments later with two bowls in tow, “We can sit at the table, the couch…whatever you’re most comfortable with. If you want we can put something on the TV, that’s what Becca usually likes to do…”

    “I like when you sing.” He can’t stop the words from coming, and he doesn’t regret them one bit when he watches her face change shades if only slightly.

    “Oh.”
