Jim and Pam, Hallmark(tm) movie style. Set in the S2 Christmas break (after the Christmas party, before the Booze Cruise). Canon-compliant until then, though with my own interpretation of how that break went, but it's a Hallmark Christmas movie so we all know how it's going to end. 

For the 2018 Secret Santa fiction exchange. 

An arrest. A trial. A prison cell. 

Jim and Pam fight to keep their hopes alive, while Dwight tries to uncover the truth. 

A Regency romance, JAM-style. Now complete.

 Disclaimer: I don't own the Office at all. 

It is Valentine's Day and Michael is throwing a party. Pam Goes to the party to blow off some steam and have fun. Pam gets a little drunk and gets the guts to do something she has been wanting to say for a long time.

It’s not as if she’s never seen his desk without him sitting there, because of course she has. He’s stayed home sick, made occasional—if unexciting—use of his vacation days, gone on sales calls — she knows what the office looks like when the shape of him is missing, when she glances up and there’s an absence where the slope of his shoulders is supposed to be.

As she settles in that first day of his absence, hangs her coat and takes her seat, Pam lets herself miss him as a coworker and as a best friend and that’s it. Work will be work, with or without Jim Halpert.

But that’s a lie, because of course it is.
