It's another Stamford office friday night, and Josh is buying the first few rounds. Jim tags along and hopes to start building some new relationships. That turns out to be more true than he could have imagined.

Okay, this is post Stamford (sort of) and is a little AU, given that we now know Jim and Pam have talked a little.  It's a bit angsty, but I swear, I was absolutely seized by the urge to write this!  It's based a little on some of the comments I read on Live Journal yesterday re: Jim as "a man with needs."  Heh. That makes this sound as if it's going to be a pile of smut, and it's not.  It'll just be a slightly different Jim - totally drunk!Jim. 

Jonathan makes an appearance as well. 

And for those of you who are concerned - remember, my fics always end with a happy Jim/Pam.  :o)  This one probably won't be as long as the others have been; I'm thinking it'll maybe be a two-parter.

The first date and the night that follows.

Pam makes an important call
