Summary
“Hmpf,” Robby says, after the first run-through on Monday morning when Frank has felt like a fucking pervert for running his hands down Mel’s soft side, over and over again, because the choreography requires it. It didn’t really help that he couldn’t sleep last night, feeling itchy and hot under the covers.
He’d tried the dancer’s version of counting sheep, blocking the ballet in his mind, going through all his steps.
He was just waiting in the wings, yam-pam-pam, Prokofiev’s score playing in his mind, watching Juliet and Paris dance at the ball. Juliet is polite, but bored. Yolanda always plays the bored part really well.
But then, thinking of how Juliet needs to slips out of Paris' hands on the beat and turn towards Romeo, it was suddenly Mel's face that looked at him expectantly, a soft flush on her cheeks.
Yikes.
Or: Royal Ballet principal Yolanda Garcia gets injured and Frank Langdon needs a new partner. Enter Mel King, a recent transfer from Pittsburgh Ballet.

Summary
Frank huffed, setting the mug down. “How many times are we going to have to go over this, Mel? I like listening to you talk. I’m not just being nice. We’re friends.”
“It’s important to ask,” she said, still watching him carefully. “Because sometimes people say they want to know something but they don’t actually mean that they do. They’re just being polite. And it’s hard for me to tell that, always.”
“I’ll tell you what,” he suggested. “Let’s make this easy. With me, you never have to ask. Consider it my… blanket approval, I guess.”
He pointed to himself. “I, Frank Langdon, am interested in what you have to say.”

Summary
What Mel wants, if she’s honest, is very simple: to not be on the floor, to be close to Dr. Langdon again, and to be as far from a lawsuit as possible. Preferably in some distant future where all of these problems are ancient history, and she no longer has an aching feeling when she remembers them.
Or; Mel hits her head and wakes up in the future, a little too close to her wish.

Summary
“Well, Aunt Irene asked if you were bringing any one.”
“... And you told her no. Because I’m not bringing anyone. Right?”
“I did not do that.” Becca said, looking sideways, avoiding Mel’s eye.
Mel blanched, swallowing hard, eyelids stuttering. But she had to keep her cool. She could not yell. She could not freak out.
“I told Aunt Irene that you were bringing your boyfriend.”
“Becca,” She said, as calmly as she could, “I don’t have a boyfriend. You know that. I’ve never had a boyfriend.” The last line, in a whisper.
“Well, I told her that Dr. Langdon was your boyfriend.”
Mel brings Dr. Langdon as her plus-one to her cousin Claire's wedding. Dr. Langdon is all too willing to pretend to be her boyfriend. Maybe a little too willing? To follow: a dog bite, spanking-related misunderstandings, erotic steak eating, and of course: only-one-bed!
