Summary
“Mel,” he says slowly, “if I texted you during a shift and said you are the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met, what would you do?”
I don’t know if I mean to give him a physical display of my answer, but I fall forward on my elbows, nearly knocking over my tea.
“Right,” he says. “So that’s issue number one.”
OR
After a small misunderstanding, Mel tells a lie she can’t take back, and now she has Langdon in her phone pretending to be her imaginary boyfriend. Maybe it would have been easier to just date the IT guy.

Summary
Mel King planned her life out to a T when she was thirteen years old.
What she hadn't planned for was meeting Frank Langdon on her first day of college at Penn State.
She definitely hadn't planned on becoming best friends with him.
And she absolutely hadn't planned on falling in love with him.
or: the one where friendship comes first, love comes quietly, and timing makes a mess of everything.Bookmarked by Sushithursday

Summary
“I love used books,” she proffers, eager to be a normal person. “I love when books have a story.”
“Well, I’d say if a book doesn’t have a story, it’s a pretty sad excuse for a book.”
Mel can’t help herself—she snorts. “I didn’t realize you owned the shop,” Mel says quickly, embarrassed. “That must be nice—”
“Yeah, it is,” Frank answers distractedly. “I’m sorry, I’m pretty sure I just saw two time Emmy award winning actress Mel King snort at a joke I made.”
So he really did know her, then, wow.
“Well I’m not sure anyone will believe you,” she jokes lightly.
“Yeah,” Frank breathes, his eyes roving over her face in a stunned sort of awe. “I don’t think anyone will.”
Or, the Kingdon Notting Hill AU :)

Summary
“I swear I’ve mentioned Alex before,” Mel murmurs, frowning down at her phone, still not clocking how she’s short-circuited Frank’s brain. It's a blue screen of death up there. Hi, you’ve reached Dr. Frank Langdon. I’m not available to talk right now, but leave a message, and I might get back to you. Beeeeeep.
The picture continues to shine cheerily up at them, silently mocking Frank. He forces himself to look away and swallows with difficulty. “I think I'd remember if you'd told me about your ‘best friend’ who you ‘used to be in love with.’”
