This story needed a rewrite. But I wanted to keep the original on the site as well...
Jim's POV- he comes to the office late at night to discover Pam there as well. Takes place during season 3, right before Valentine's Day.
This is the last of my "near miss" rewrites for season three episodes. This one is based on "The Negotiation" and also a Pam talking head from "Michael's Birthday". It's also more angsty than the others.She wants it to be perfect. She wants to tell him in the most romantic, perfect way she can think of, so that the memory of those words are not "I can't" but lovely, sweet, and round: "I love you, Jim."
Pam makes plans to make a declaration.
Jim and Pam on familiar ground. Spoilers (perhaps) up to mid-Season 4.How would things have turned out if Pam read the card that came with her teapot?Do you know which character is which?
What if Roy was lying when he said he'd never cheated on Pam? What if Pam was always a little less healthy than she let on? What if everything, everywhere, is only meant to fall apart?Pam moved to New York instead of starting work at Dunder Mifflin. Years later she returns and she meets Jim, but they're at very different points in their lives.Jim and Pam are Jim and Pam, only...not really.The worst thing about the internet is spam filters. Just ask Pam.
NOW COMPLETE!!!
"Jim, why don't you tell Pam how you really feel?"
Jim and Pam deal with the stuff that comes with being on a hit show...talk shows, radio call-ins, and press junkets. They say there's no such thing as bad publicity, but is that really the case? Watch as Jim and Pam deal with being in the public eye and under the thumb of manipulative network producers. The story is told through interviews, transcripts, web pages and photos.
“Pam and I have hurt a lot of people, but mostly we’ve hurt each other. There’s no coming back from that.”*NEW* Epilogue added!
