Summary
"Well, what's your poison, then?" Frank asks, angling his head in her direction.
"What?" Mel asks, mouth dry. All she can focus on right now is the line of Frank's jaw and the tendon in his neck—
"Y'know…" Frank waves his hand around in the air uselessly, "a weird sex thing you're into."
Or, Mel and Frank tell each other what they like in bed, as friends do. Somehow they end up trying those things out on each other.

Summary
“Langdon.” She said, as he drove. It’d be easier if he couldn’t look at her.
“Mel.” He replied, shooting her a quick sideways glance.
“Earlier today,” She began, “in the break room,” her hands fidgeted nervously in her lap, “you said something about, uh, well-“
“Needing to get laid ?” He finished for her,
“Yes. I was thinking about it,” Her stomach was quickly filling up with rocks and her throat burned just slightly,
“About me getting laid ?” He joked, smirking at her, eyes still on the road. The beat of silence that followed made him look at her fully, for just a moment, before turning his eyes back to the car in front of him. “What were you thinking about ?” He asked, tone more serious.
“I’m… going to tell you something you can’t tell anyone else, okay ?” Her eyes were burning a hole into her shoes, and she noticed the small speck of red that adorned the right one’s toe. The smallest drop of blood staining their surface.

Summary
He shrugged, like it was the most casual thing in the world. “I’m in. I love weddings. I’m great with families. Let’s go.”
Despite herself, Mel laughed, and the corners of his mouth turned up at the sound. “No. I can’t ask you to do that.”
(Mel accidentally lets her family think she's been dating Langdon for eight months. It's all totally fine, until he gets invited to her cousin's wedding.)

Summary
And then Santos says — because of course she does, of course they would, of course it’s her fault — “And Langdon would be awful in bed, of course.” Mel blinks.
She somehow hadn’t expected them to get to Langdon, although she acknowledges it’s quite ridiculous of her to not have seen it coming considering the list of male coworkers they were rapidly striking. It’s just — well, Langdon isn’t exactly just a coworker to her, but also a friend. Someone she sends medical memes to and facetimes and watches bad movies on her couch to decompress, someone who pays for her coffee when she’s not looking and talks her down from the egde of a spiral and has met Becca. He’s — He’s Frank to her, and it’s weird to— talk about him that way. Extremely inappropriate, beyond what HR demands.
Still, Mel thinks she should defend his honor, and notes, “I think you might be letting your biases influence your judgment.”
or mel can't stop thinking about how frank's like in bed, and decides she should really just ask him

Summary
If you ask Johnny what he thinks melancholy is, he'll sit you down and explain it in great detail- giving instances from his own life, from tales of olden age and modern times and will ask you of your similar experiences to make you understand. Johnny loves to speak because he is marvelous at it.
But, Ten, on the other hand. If you ask him the same question right now, this instance, he'll just shrug his shoulders and point at something nearby (or himself, or his hand mingled with Johnny's) and say, quietly, "This."
Hand in hand, Ten and Johnny wait for a train that will separate them.

Summary
Ever since Jaehyun came to the inevitable self-awareness of his own feelings for his best friend, you could say it’s been a bit of a distraction. Some days, the words are on the tip of his tongue, an irresistible impulse to come clean and admit that, as much as Jaehyun loves to have Johnny crawling into his bed right as he’s about to fall asleep and pulling at both of them until they make a mess, he maybe would also appreciate if Johnny stayed. Just hung out, for a bit. God forbid, even cuddle. Wake up together, kiss before leaving for practice, meet for lunch afterwards...
He can’t tell what’s worse — that he knows how disgustingly domestic it sounds, or that he still wants it anyway.

Summary
Johnny had two options: First, he could send Ten a message and apologize, then turn around, get back to his place and act like nothing ever happened. The thought itself made him want to kick himself. The second one was far more terrifying. He could stay right there and wait. He could wait for Ten to open the door and let him inside. To his room. To see him. And then — then what?
or
Johnny decided that 3 am is a perfect time to see Ten.

Summary
Ten didn’t want to break Johnny’s heart.
He told himself it wasn’t going to happen. He told himself they were young, that there were so many people who could love Johnny, better than he could. People who could love Johnny in public, people who Johnny could get married to one day, people Johnny could build a future with. Ten wasn’t the only person Johnny could love. Johnny was sure to get over it.
Ten’s own heart didn’t matter. What mattered was following the path to the future he had planned out, and if Ten’s heart broke a little along the way, then it was just collateral damage.
