Her eyes meet Tanner's across the small table where he'd been coloring. The look on his face from contented toddler to excitement is clear and she can't help but grin at his goofy look. "Who's that?" she says in a slightly exaggerated 'excited' voice before he is practically bouncing in his seat on the floor. 'Daddy,' he answers excitedly. "Daddy?" she echoes. "Why don't you go find him?" With that Tanner is practically stumbling out of his seat. Abby reached over and made sure he got up safely before he was out of the room like a rocket heading for the sounds of Frank in the entry hall.

Standing herself, she walked over to the playpen and scooped up kid #2 who had been munching on a stuffed rabbit's ear. "Let's go see Daddy," she said in an exaggerated excited voice. "Yeah, let's see who's home." It earned a grin. Settling them on her hip she headed for the hallway.

" I need a nap, " she called mostly in teasing as she rounds the corner. She watches as he sets Tanner back down gently. Abby moves into his hold, lips meeting his for a moment in greeting. " Energy drink? This close to bed time? I thought you were supposed to be a doctor? " she teases lightly. There was a small pause. "Do you think we have any watermelon left?" She was seriously considering it. Abby tended to stay up late anyways so it wasn't like it would mess with her sleep schedule. Not with young kids in the house.

Lifting the younger child slightly she readjusted them on her hip so they could see Frank better. "Look who's here," she murmured, trying to get them to focus on the new person in the room. " It's daddy. "

frank's   attention   is   momentarily   distracted   by   their   younger   child.   he   gives   them   a   gentle   kiss   on   the   head   as   they   squirm   in   his   wife's   arms,   clearly   excited   to   see   daddy.   he   takes   this   moment   to   pull   their   younger   one   into   his   own   arms   and   listens   to   them   babble   for   a   moment   --   something   about   bluey   and   a   kite   --   as   he   nods   along.   "   sounds   like   someone had   a   fun   day.   "   his   brow   arches   upwards   in   response   before   he   makes   a   funny   face   to   get   their   daughter   to   giggle.

blue   eyes   fall   back   on   his   wife   as   he   moves   everyone   further   inside   the   house.   all   he   wants   to   really   do   is   let   abby   put   the   kids   to   bed   so   that   they   can   crash   on   the   couch   together.   he   eyes   the   living   room   from   the   dining   room   before   handing   their   youngest   back   off   to   his   wife   so   he   can   rummage   through   the   fridge.   he's   not   really   hungry,   mostly   searching   for   something   he   can   nibble   on.   settling   on   sliced   apples   that   are   surely   for   the   kids,   frank   grabs   the   tupperware   and   tosses   the   lid   into   the   sink   on   his   way   to   the   couch.

"   correct.   i'm   a   doctor   --   not   a   nutritionist.   "   he   retorts,   the   ghost   of   a   smile   hinted   on   his   lips   as   he   passes   his   wife.   slipping   off   his   shoes   under   the   coffee   table   and   still   in   his   scrubs,   langdon   makes   himself   comfortable   on   the   couch   as   he   pops   a   whole   slice   into   his   mouth.

"   why   don't   you   put   the   kids   to   bed   and   come   join   me?   "   he   asks   as   he tries not to spill the apples while he   searches   for   the   remote.

dialogue prompts from one little spark by ellie banks.

you little asshole.

everything is annoying today. everything.

i've always liked a little scorched earth.

i've never seen the point of going out with quiet dignity and grace.

you like problems.

whatever i do, i do right.

a combination of age and life have left me absolutely fuckless.

you don't need me to take care of you.

has anyone ever told you that you catch more flies with honey than vinegar?

being single is so damned weird.

i'm fond of crashing through caution tape.

if he doesn't take care of you, i'll hunt him down and kill him.

starting small is not in my wheelhouse.

you never seem afraid of being wrong.

how did you get here so fast?

always the dangerous choice.

you don't understand what you saw.

you deserve to have some closure.

sometimes i want to burn this place to the ground.

i'm not sure if it's a dream or a memory.

shut out what you can't control, and focus on what you can.

i try not to engage in wishful thinking, but sometimes it's hard.

maybe it's me. maybe it's that 'bad blood' shit.

if i can't trust you, i can't trust anything.

are you taking care of yourself?

what does 'normal' look like right now?

cheating in your head isn't a thing.

i want to figure out how to embrace what i have left.

do i have _____ on my face?

it's okay to feel like you don't know what you're doing. that's normal.

i don't feel like anything about me is very normal.

i keep grudges like other people keep cats.

sometimes you have to take steps forward, even if they're not in the shoes you would have chosen.

i couldn't stand letting you see me struggle.

everyone has secrets.

you weren't a mistake to me.

no one's ever looked at me like that but you.

it's okay to not know what you feel.

i want you to never blame yourself. for anything.

i was a little bitch to you, and i'm sorry.

why do people like uncertain women so much?

if you were happy, you wouldn't be here.

simmer down, kid.

this isn't a happy place for me.

guilt is different from shame.

what's the difference between god and a surgeon? god doesn't think he's a surgeon.

i always end up telling you my secrets.

how do you think that would've gone, you and me?

____ felt like the safe choice.

i know you can't rebuild from ashes, but you can build something new on top of them.

i would have been there for you, if you'd have let me.

did everyone know but me?

i'm married, not dead.

at least i say what needs saying.

it's not actually hard to be nice to you.

i don't have time for feelings. i've got shit to do.

you're kind of an asshole.

if you can't handle a woman scorned, don't scorn one.

life is a lot more complicated than anybody wants to believe.

i felt like a teenager when i saw you.

you're as afraid as i am.

why aren't you angry with me?

i want us to get to know each other again.

it has been a very long time since i've been on a date.

i don't know why anyone would choose to be single.

you fascinate me.

i don't have time to sit around and marinate in subtlety.

you've been kind of a secret fantasy of mine for a while now.

i always knew i was the main character. thank you for supporting my narcissism.

this will never be over, will it?

no matter what, i want to know you.

i'm going to pour wine.

i really like you. i wasn't supposed to.

i'm trying to just enjoy the moment, but i'm bad at it.

i didn't have words for it then.

i thought maybe things would improve with distance.

when did we finish having all our easy conversations?

you've never liked sunrises. you hate getting up early.

you're my girl. you always were.

for once in my life, i wanted to be the one who got picked.

i wanted to make you my enemy, but you aren't, are you?

you aren't innocent, but you aren't evil, either.

i'm never the bigger person. not for the hell of it.

i don't know if i knew anything about my own life.

i'm not sure what i'm remembering and what i'm dreaming.

the truth will come for you, if you don't come for it first.

'should' doesn't fix anything.

was i ever there for you, or did i just torture you?

i remember the first time you held my hand.

in my lowest moment, you kept me safe. from myself, from everything.

i tried not to think about it. i didn't tell anyone.

i'm really not mature enough for this.

timing has never really been my strong suit.

i'm just hormonal. it's making me weird.

i wanted to make sure that you were taken care of.

don't ask questions you don't want the answers to.

i want to be as strong as you are. that's all i want.

i don't see a way forward without you, one way or the other.

you made my life here not hell.

you can be sorry and still forgive yourself.

your conscience isn't my problem.

i'm not one to argue with fate.

you got your character arc, after all. good for you.
