PART ONE

PART TWO


Jim sees Pam coming out of the kitchen alone. She took lunch early with the new temp, Sarah, that day, having bonded with the younger girl. He smiles, liking that she can make an honest friend here.

As she passes by him while moving towards reception, she lets her fingers run along his shoulders, smiling at him by just turning her head. She settles in and looks up at him, he grins back.

It was a really nice day.

It was even better when it came time to leave for the day. Having gotten stuck on the phone with a client, Jim saw it was just him, Pam and Dwight left. Possibly Michael as well, no one ever knows when he really leaves anymore. Dwight’s taken to staying late now since he and Angela broke up. Jim doesn’t have much to say or think about that.

He nods at Pam, letting her know that he’s ready to go. So they gather their things and head for the elevator.

She grabs his hand and laces her fingers with his, not really looking at him, smiling to herself. Jim glances around for cameras, not seeing any but knowing they could be anywhere. He doesn’t really care though. But he is mildly, and pleasantly, surprised.

They’re barely out of the building when Pam gently pulls on his hand and arm to get him to stop walking towards his car. She pauses, breathes in a moment, pushing her hair out of her face.

“So, I was thinking earlier. It really feels about time we moved in together.” Her head is sort of nodding as she speaks and nods a little more when she finishes.

He thinks for a moment about whether Christmas came early. And then he feels weird to have thought that and then he thinks it doesn’t matter. He shakes his head, almost laughing silently to himself and then looks up, seeing Pam staring at him.

“You really think we should?”

She tentatively smiles at him, saying softly, “Yeah. It’s been a few months, if we weren’t going to work out, we’d be over now,” she pauses. “It’d be a pretty great step, wouldn’t it?”

He pulls her to him, rubbing her arms gently.

“You bet.”
